Rainer's words made Count Cod very happy, since he said so, it also meant that his son Rumbarre and Wend were allowed to enter the core ruling class of the Northern Territory together.

　　Although Earl Cod is not worried about the future of Lombard, it is still very happy to serve him as important to Linner early.

　　 Lumbarre has been famous since the last time he killed a bear by himself. The followers around him admired him very much. Even the army of Earl Cod looked forward to the Lumbarre horse.

　　 He led a team to wipe out the people of Carat in the boreal forest. This is to accumulate combat experience.

　　 Although Lombard has also been on the battlefield in the past, he was only a soldier in the war after all. Now let him lead a team and become a real commander with a little exercise.

　　Earl Cod never doubted his son's ability. What's more, as Reiner's cousin, he is also a son. Lombard was born to enter the core of the right to enter the North.

　　Liner looked at Earl Cod with a smile on his face and said: "Let Lumbarley take your uncle and your army into the boreal forest. After all, there are not many veterans under your command. It is always good to have more experience!"

　　Earl Corde nodded happily. As his son, Lombard would inherit the title of his own earl sooner or later. It would be a good thing to establish prestige in the army early.

　　Earl Cod saw that Lena was all right, and hurriedly left the study.

　　 And Wend was also called by Rainer to carefully instruct him. The things about Rainer some time ago have been sullen until now. Rainer thinks that he will have problems sooner or later if this continues.

　　 What's more, if he doesn't have the ability to go far, Rainer is not justified but gives him a title and a territory. As his own younger brother, he must have outstanding abilities and outstanding achievements. He is his natural supporter.

Lena sat in a chair, he looked at the half-dead look of Wende getting more and more annoyed, he slapped the desk on the table, and cursed: "Can you cheer me up? Look at your appearance and think I am dead. That's it!"

　　 Wende shook his body slightly as he listened to his brother's scolding, looked at Lena and did not speak, but sighed and remained silent.

Reiner had no choice but to look at such Wend. He could only tell him his decision: "This year we will conduct a raid on the clad people living in the boreal forest. I plan to let you go with Lombard. You two have experience, and I will use you in the future!"

Reiner looked at Wend’s lack of interest and was helpless. He knocked on the table and said, “This time I’m not asking you to watch the battlefield. I’m asking you and Lombard to lead the teams separately. You personally command the army and the Clades. Fight!"

　　 Wende was stunned when he heard this, he quickly raised his head to look at his brother, and said in disbelief, "You...what you said is true? Can I really lead the army in battle?"

Wend really couldn't believe that he could hear such words from his brother. He still remembered sneaking into the battlefield when he was young, but he was strictly forbidden by his elder brother. Since then, he has been put out on the battlefield. Thoughts, thinking that being an uncontested baron under the protection of his eldest brother would be enough.

　　 But he didn't expect that he would still have the opportunity to lead the army at this time. After a moment of stunned, he immediately fell into ecstasy.

　　 "Really? Can I really command the army?" Although Wende has been receiving education and training for these years, his dream of leading the army has not been extinguished.

　　 "Of course it is true. As my younger brother, you should also be a good person. I don't want others to say that Grand Duke Leiner's brother is a idiot!" Leiner shrugged and said.

　　 Wend was excited almost to call out, and hurriedly left Rainer's study to make preparations.

　　Leiner shook his head helplessly. He now wants to send some soldiers to Wend for his command.

　　 After the raid plan of Rainer and Earl Cod was completed, the military camps around Mecalon City began intensive preparations, and at the same time, the warehouses in the city were also moving various materials out.

　　 Firewood, food, dried meat were all carried by slaves one by one onto a large carriage drawn by heavy horses. The winter of this year was too cold, and it would be easy to produce non-combat attrition if warm measures were not taken.

Wend looked at the more than 200 soldiers beside him with excitement. This time the troops were led by Earl Leyland, eight recruits and one veteran, except for the ones led by Lombard. Two hundred soldiers, the infantry brigade of more than two hundred followers of Wende and the private army.

　　 A total of 3,100 troops were sent this time to sweep the boreal forests.

　　 Wend managed his soldiers under the guidance of Earl Leyland, restraining these soldiers to form a marching line to follow the large army.

　　 After he really managed an army, he realized that it was not an easy task to lead an army.

　　 Compared with that, Rumbarre is more comfortable with his army. He hasn't been restrained too much since he was a child. Compared with Wend, he is much more experienced, and he is naturally stronger under the influence of ears and eyes.

　　The march went on for fifteen days, and they walked out about 150 kilometers. The marching speed under such heavy snow was severely slowed down. It was very good to be able to walk 10 kilometers every day.

　　 But you must know ~lightnovelpub.net~ Under normal conditions, the Northern Army can travel 30 to 40 kilometers per day.

　　 It took more than a month for this team to enter the frigid forest, but they still had to search for the tribes of Kala, conduct battle captures, and return to Mekalong City.

　　 Therefore, even if they caught a sufficient number of slaves, they could no longer perform the work of cleaning the snow.

　　 However, the main purpose of sending troops to sweep the boreal forest this time is not to catch the effort, but to let the recruits see blood. What's more, even if the slaves are not brought back at the right time, they can be used in the future, right?

This team was aimlessly searching for the traces of the people of Kara in the jungle. They swept tribe after tribe. Although many recruits exposed some problems, they were saved by iron armor and heavy cotton clothes. They were killed, and there were not many attritions.

　　 Lumbarley and Wend also grew up rapidly in these battles. Under the guidance of Earl Leyland, they gradually learned how to command the army and how to gather soldiers.

　　 Coupled with the basic war formation and combat methods they usually accept, they have become qualified low-level officers.

　　 After two months of in-depth raids, they successfully annihilated more than 20 clad tribes, captured more than 20,000 slaves, and kept their casualties within 200 people.

　　 After calculating the time, Earl Leyland gave the order to return, and this time the slave arrest operation was completely over.
