"Master David, there are 132 gray wolves in total."
In the refugee camp, the Gray Wolf Knight reported the number of gray wolves that he had counted.
Although David had tamed the Gray Wolf King, how to deal with these gray wolves was still a problem.
These gray wolves were already hungry.
Even with the restraint of the Gray Wolf King, if they were extremely hungry, even the Gray Wolf King would find it difficult to suppress the wolf pack.
And if you want to feed these gray wolves, the food required is too huge, and the current Frostwolf Ridge can't afford it at all.
"Don't worry, I have a plan."
"Although Frostwolf Ridge doesn't have enough food, my territory is not limited to Frostwolf Ridge."
David suddenly showed a meaningful smile.
The Gray Wolf Knight was startled, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.
Indeed.
The Frostwolf Duke's territory is not only Frostwolf Ridge.
In other words, most of the Northland was originally the territory of the Frostwolf Duke.
It was just that due to the decline of the Frostwolf Family, those nobles who were enfeoffed continued to break away from the control of the Frostwolf Family.
Over the past hundred years, the Frostwolf Family has lost control of the Northland.
But when the old duke was still there, the Frostwolf family still controlled the entire Frostwolf Forest and the surrounding territories.
Moreover, although the nobles of these territories also chose to leave the Frostwolf family, they were not recognized by the Silver Moon Kingdom.
Therefore, David is still the nominal lord of the Frostwolf Forest and the surrounding territories, and is recognized by the Silver Moon Kingdom.
Before.
David's strength was too weak, and he could only acquiesce to the separation of these nobles.
But now, with the strength of David the Earth Knight, it is not a difficult thing to take back these territories!
"Uncle Leo."
"You ask the City Hall to count the taxes that each territory needs to pay."
"They have owed it for so long, and they should spit it out with interest."
David smiled slightly.
He just needed money, and with this money, he could just use it to build Frostwolf Ridge!
"Yes, Lord!" The Gray Wolf Knight responded excitedly. After the Gray
Wolf Knight left, David asked the Gray Wolf King to take the Gray Wolf back to the forest and settle it, and then returned to the castle.
...
Frostwolf Castle.
The number of people waiting originally changed from two to three.
Seeing the Lord coming back, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief and went to greet him together.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." David smiled.
In addition to Leah, Amy and Reina, the Grey Wolf Knights and the territory officials were also waiting.
During this period, these territory officials all knew that their Lord had broken through the Earth Knight, and they were all in an excited period.
Therefore, when David looked over, he could see that these territory officials were in very good spirits.
David comforted the three ladies and took the territory officials to the meeting room on the first floor.
"Reina, you come too."
When David arrived at the door of the meeting room, he paused and said.
Reina was startled, and after reacting, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
She knew that all those gathered here were the power core of Frost Wolf Ridge, and there must be something important to discuss.
In this case, the Duke actually asked her to enter the study with him.
Even if he just wanted her to go in and serve tea and water, it was already an attitude, representing trust in her.
The other officials of Frost Wolf Ridge also set their eyes on Reina at this time.
They all knew that the Lord had allowed several beautiful women to enter the castle in order to give birth to an heir as soon as possible.
But they did not expect that the Lord would allow one of them to get in touch with the power core of Frostwolf Ridge, which in itself was an attitude.
Seeing that Reina did not move, David went up to her and took her hand and entered the meeting room together.
Afterwards, David sat down at the main seat in the meeting room, and then asked Huo Wu who followed him in to move a chair and put it next to him.
Although the officials of Frostwolf Ridge were curious, they did not show any expression on their faces.
All these officials were left by David's father, and they had served the Frostwolf family for generations, and their qualities were indeed very good.
After Reina sat down, her eyes fell on David's face.
When David looked back, their eyes just met, and Reina hurriedly turned her head unnaturally.
Soon, the meeting began.
The Grey Wolf Knight first talked about the theme of this meeting.
Hearing that the new Frostwolf Duke wanted to take back the territory that originally belonged to him, the eyes of these officials lit up instantly.
They were originally subordinates of the old duke, and they were very self-blaming for not being able to help the old duke defend the territory.
Later, they heard that the lord had broken through the earth knights, and they had been looking forward to this day.
Now that they heard that there was a chance to retake the territory, how could these officials sit still? They all looked at the lord excitedly, waiting for the lord's order.
David had already thought of the plan on the way and asked the officials to report the situation of the surrounding territories.
It is still winter now, and the snow has almost divided all the territories.
Therefore, when winter comes, there will be few wars in the north, and even if there is a state of war, there will be a short ceasefire.
If it were usual, Frost Wolf Ridge would not start a war in winter.
But now, he has nearly a hundred gray wolves in his hands. Relying on these gray wolves, the snow can't stop the pace of Frost Wolf Ridge at all.
Therefore, this snow will not become an obstacle to Frost Wolf Ridge, but will also become a boost to the attack, leaving other territories isolated and helpless.
However, winter is about to pass, and this time is very limited.
Even with the gray wolf pack, it would be impossible for David to capture all the territories in such a short time.
Therefore, David planned to first capture the strongest territory that was the most hostile to Frostwolf Ridge and posed the greatest threat, and set an example for the other territories.
"What do you think?"
David explained the plan and looked at the territorial officials on the scene.
When discussing matters, the most important thing is naturally to listen to the opinions of subordinates, and David has always been a person who listens to advice.
"My Lord, are those gray wolves reliable?" An official hesitated.
Nearly a hundred gray wolves are indeed a very strong force, comparable to a knightly order.
But if these gray wolves cannot be controlled, it will also be a very dangerous thing for the Lord to go deep into other territories.
David smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, our Frostwolf family has a special wolf taming technique." Then, he looked at the others.
The others felt relieved after hearing this, and then they began to discuss the choice of territory for this attack.
Finally, they set the target as Eagle Wing Castle.
The lords of Eagle Wing Castle are all third-level knights, and they are connected to the Ice Bear Family. They are also the biggest threat. Even this time, Eagle Wing Castle was involved in the refugee disaster!
Moreover, the lord of Eagle Wing Castle is notorious for his cruelty. Just take this opportunity to dismantle the time bomb around the Frostwolf Forest!
