After hearing Wu Wei's words, Xia Er was stunned for a while before reacting. He asked cautiously:

"Sir, you mean···Robbing? Isn't that a bad idea?"

Wu Wei shook his head in disappointment - he had always thought this guy was smart, why was he so stupid now?

"Let me ask you, the border war is getting worse, and the royal family can't send reinforcements because of the rebellion. The lords and nobles whose fiefs are nearby are watching the orcs about to break through the gate of the Quarry Castle, but they still don't move their troops and wait for the city to fall. What do you think they are thinking?"

Charles's thoughts were guided, and he immediately thought of something, and immediately said in surprise:"They···Could they be supporters of the rebels? At the very least, they are fence-sitters."

Wu Wei nodded, then asked,"Let's not talk about what they are made of or what they think. Do you know what kind of behavior they are when they sit back and watch foreign invaders invade?"

Charles thought for a moment and answered uncertainly,"Watching someone die without helping?"

"Wrong!"

Wu Wei raised his voice and said righteously:"It is supporting rebellion! Betraying the country!"

"Considering the orcs invading the border, we even have reason to suspect that they are colluding with foreign enemies and betraying humans!"

"What are we now? We are a righteous army that resisted foreign invasion, fought thousands of miles away, and returned to our country to quell the rebellion!"

"If we take things from a group of traitors, can that be called robbery? Everything we do is to defend this country!"

Wu Wei's tone was very high-sounding, and those who didn't know him would really think he was a heroic general who was dedicated to his country.

As he said this, he changed the subject and made it clear:

"Let me be frank. I not only want their food, but also their army! Otherwise, do you think I can really rely on these tens of thousands of soldiers to quell the rebellion of a country?"

Charles' face twitched when he heard this. He never expected that his lord would be such a shameless person.

He couldn't help but ask,"Lord, we don't have evidence for these, right? They can't just surrender, right?"

Wu Wei smiled and said earnestly,"When a collective order is facing collapse, no one will care about evidence and justice! When the party that makes and maintains the rules becomes the prey, the rules of the game will return to their original state and become simple and pure! And the most primitive and eternal rule in the world is the law of the jungle."

"So whether we can eat them depends on this!"

As he said this, he stretched out a hand and clenched it into a fist.

Charles looked at his fist and nodded silently. Suddenly, he had an epiphany in his heart - if I follow this adult, I will definitely go to hell in the future, right?

But isn't this very interesting?

······

The army of nearly 50,000 people was extremely large and continuous, but fortunately the marching speed was quite fast.

They traveled during the day, stationed at night, and flew back to the Quarry Castle in the middle of the night to use the Yellow Springs Spiritual Conjuring Technique to convert the undead soldiers. Just like that, one day later, Wu Wei's"Army of Justice" entered Kate Territory.

This is the hereditary fief of Border Earl Kate Wensel, and it is also the core territory of the Wensel family.

The lords who can survive in the border area will not have low military strength, and the Wensel family is one of the best in the nearby area. The number of troops in the territory will never be less than 30,000. Considering that it is wartime, the number will only be more.

If you want to force it, the opponent can't easily take it down by relying on the momentum of defending the city.

However, he came to"borrow soldiers and food", not to attack the city. Speed is the kingly way, so there is no time to waste with them.

With just a garrison in the earldom, how can he stop his dragon blood warriors!

······

Wu Wei's army was so large, and they entered the territory without any concealment, which would naturally cause an extreme reaction from the lord of this place.

Therefore, a few hours after the army entered Kate's territory, a strong cavalry team rushed towards them.

There were about 5,000 people, all light cavalry and swordsmen on horseback, and the leader was actually a hundred seventh-level knights.

It goes without saying that the Wensel family had sent out all their elite troops to carry out military deterrence!

The cavalry stopped not far away, and the leading knight shouted from a distance:

"This is Kate Territory. I am Kailar, the Knight Commander under Earl Kate. Where are you from? Leave the territory immediately, or we will regard you as invaders and enforce our honorable rights to defend our sacred territory!"

After hearing this, Wu Wei immediately rebuked him on the spot:

"How dare you! As citizens of the kingdom, don't you recognize this flag? We are the border troops of the Cornflower Kingdom stationed at Quarry Castle. We have an important military mission now. Take us to see your lord!"

"If the military opportunity is delayed, even Earl Kate can't save you!"

Since the other side dared to come, they must have seen the origin of Wu Wei's army long ago. There would be no second possibility except the border garrison of Quarry Fort.

Guessing that they were most likely the remnants of the defeated army who were forced to flee here after the orcs broke through the city, the other side couldn't help but have a little more contempt and arrogance in their hearts.

Ignoring Wu Wei's intimidation, he just casually said:"It turns out that you are colleagues from the kingdom's border army. I'm so sorry, the Earl is not in the territory, we can't make the decision to let you go, so please leave."

Wu Wei laughed and said loudly:"We are on the front line to protect the safety of your rear territory, and now you are chasing us away?"

"I think you, Lord Kate, have ulterior motives. Soldiers, listen up and capture these guys!"
