Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Soon after, White also joined Lowry with his Third Army.

Facing Lowry's concerns, White said, "We just happened to come into contact with the resistance army along this route, and I sent soldiers to support them. According to their intelligence, the demon army has entered Doug's territory, and it is estimated that they will eventually come to the Golden Spike Plains to fight us."

"That bastard Doug relied on the demons to kill the Grand Duke, and now he's asking for help from the demons again. Damn it!"

White slammed the table hard, as if he remembered the hard times when he was defending Winterhold.

"The Governor-General has already told us this in his reply letter, but can the entry of the demons really change the situation?"

Lowry stroked his chin and began to think. The originally ferocious demons now seemed to Lowry like powerful soldiers. Could it be that these demons were the source of Doug's confidence?

White quickly calmed down and answered Lowry's question: "According to the response from the soldiers who went to support the resistance, something seems to be wrong with the demons. They have started to believe in a cult. The demons that have come into contact with the resistance are like cultists, and may be much stronger than the original demons."

"If it's ordinary demons coming to plunder, the resistance army can still deal with them, but those regular demon armies are difficult for the resistance army to stop now."

The weapons and equipment level of the Resistance Army is worse than that of Doug's Army, but in order to prevent the outflow of weapons, the overall equipment is definitely not as good as the regular army. The Resistance Army does not have the standard magic weapons of the regular army. But after White came into contact with them, he still gave a very high evaluation of the Resistance Army. There are even many soldiers that White wants to absorb into the Third Army.

However, the resistance forces were helpless when facing the demon army, which indeed shows that the demon army had ill intentions.

But White doesn't think that believing in an evil god can change anything. If the evil god's magic were really that convenient, the world would have been full of cultists.

Finally, White summarized and said to Lowry, "No matter what conspiracy or trick he has, we have the advantage of direct combat and the initiative. If you are really worried, we can first send some troops to test the enemy's strength."

This kind of war-starting reconnaissance could be said to be Knight Lars' forte, using a small number of elite soldiers to test the waters, with the main force arriving later.

Lowry also nodded. Even though each demon was like a fanatical cultist, all beings were equal in front of artillery and machine guns.

Although the Governor has warned that the evil god believed in by the demons may be a little strange, the army cannot stop moving forward because of this speculation.

Hammond on the side also volunteered and said, "Then leave the first battle to me. I will definitely fulfill my mission."

White had also heard of Hammond's battle record, and Hammond also had a team of fully armed professionals under his command, which could be said to be the perfect fit.

But Lowry said, "Don't worry. Some of our comrades are on their way, and the Governor's railway is still under construction. We can delay for a while until the Governor's railway is almost finished. It won't be too late to start the war. Before that, we should establish a stronghold to prevent the other side from making any unusual moves."

This decision could be said to be very mature, and White had no objection. Although this might allow the other demon army coming to support to prepare slowly, the two armies of Gray and White Collar were now positioned in some deep areas, with some newly surrendered nobles behind them, which was really worrying. If the front line showed a slight decline, the nobles behind would begin to move abnormally. It would be better to wait until the supply line was completed before making plans.

At this time, Doug was receiving the commander-in-chief of the demon army.

Unlike ordinary demons, the body of this demon commander-in-chief is extremely huge.

"Lord Noam, these are Governor Doug's troops."

The short demon envoy was diligently introducing the demon commander-in-chief named Noam.

"A bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals."

Noam obviously looked down on the crooked soldiers in the castle square and continued, "Humans are indeed an inferior race. Why don't they submit to us?"

Although he really wanted to say that you demons were no match for the gray-collar resistance army before, Doug, who had allowed the demon army to enter the northern border, did not dare to retort at this time.

Although the demon army was not large in number, the soldiers on the castle square did have a very poor appearance, and these soldiers were the elite soldiers who had previously won battles in the East Territory.

After looking around, Noam said to Doug, "Governor, where are your other soldiers?"

"They are all on their way to the Golden Spike Plains."

Although it was just superficial politeness, at least the other party called him Governor, which made Doug feel a lot more at ease. At least he still retained the last bit of dignity.

"Very good, but we still don't have enough people. We need more people. It's better to call everyone in the territory over. Do you understand? Only in this way can we stop your nephew-in-law."

Noam patted Doug on the shoulder, as if to show encouragement, but Doug took a knight's stance and was not bent by Noam's pat.

Are the demons so powerful now?

"No matter how many people there are, they are just cannon fodder."

Doug barely managed to maintain his composure, shook his head and said to Noam, "You have never faced the gray-collar army head-on, so you don't know how terrifying their artillery is."

But Noam said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. We have ways to deal with their artillery. You just need to send people to the Golden Spike Plains. Do you understand? Governor Doug."

After saying that, Noam looked towards the river valley outside the castle, licked his lips and continued, "Aren't there still a lot of people over there? We can also bring them to the battlefield."

"Those are just ordinary people. They don't even know how to use a musket!"

Doug sensed something was wrong. The demons seemed to want to send all of their subjects to the battlefield. But even if Doug could do it and win, who would help them farm after they won? What was the point of having a territory if all the people were killed?

"That doesn't matter. Believe me, Governor. The more people we send to the battlefield, the better. The more people we send to the battlefield, the greater our chances of winning. Only if we win will your nephew-in-law negotiate with you, right? If we win beautifully, it's not impossible to take back some other places."

Noam is like a dealer in a casino, constantly tempting Doug to increase his chips. Stud poker is a kind of wisdom.

But Doug finally shook his head, maintained his composure, and took the demon commander for a walk.

In the evening, Doug's two younger brothers and Lena's other two uncles came to find Doug.

"Second brother!"

"Those bastards from the demon clan forcibly took all the people in our territory away to join the army!"

The two younger brothers originally had ulterior motives, but as the power displayed by the gray-collar worker became stronger and stronger, the two of them just shrank back and let Doug take the blame.

Doug said helplessly: "The demons want to take all our people away and kill them on the battlefield. Even if they win the war, we will only have territory but no people and will have no choice but to obey the demons' orders."

Finally, Doug patted his two partners on the shoulders. He was not surprised by the behavior of the demon clan. It was obvious that this was to better control himself in the future. However, it was difficult for Doug to resist the other party. But Doug didn't understand where the demon clan got the confidence to defeat the gray-collar workers.
