THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 242: IS THERE REALLY ONLY MONSTERS?
Myro had also fought against the monster that was the Wolf Cavalry army belonging to the Orc-Goblin Kingdom, every member of their elite cavalry did not wear a horse but a wolf monster.
Although with the existence of monsters, the existence of Wolf Cavalry became unique but that does not mean that cavalry wearing horses are weaker.
If the Mongol Cavalry fought with the Wolf Cavalry using the same number of troops, Myro believed the winner would be the Mongol Cavalry.
Pard nodded quickly "Master is right, as the mine area is dark, not strange monsters live and hide there. Not to mention based on our observations, the size of the mine is vast! Although we have been mining there for many years, the amount of iron ore there is still very much. According to the teacher, we have not taken half the iron ore from the mine so there is no problem for the mine to be used for another 20 years before it runs out".
Myro began to think, if the mine was running out or there was no more iron ore there, Myro had no interest in moving his army against the monsters in the cave. It was better to close the cave door so that the monsters could not leave from there anymore.
However, fighting monsters like spiders in caves is very difficult, the main reason being that troop movements become limited during their time in caves. Not to mention the cavalry was unable to fight in the cave, only the infantry and archers could still fight there.
Therefore, there is no meaning against all the spider monsters there if the mine has no more advantage.
The problem is that Torn says iron mines can continue to produce iron for 20 years, the mine's profit for 20 years is not at all an amount that can be underestimated.
While Torn tricks Myro into helping the mine, Myro throws away the possibility. Without having to cheat Myro though, Myro would have helped if Torn needed this mine.
Torn helped Myro a lot by making the best weapons and armor, now almost all Myro troops get their own armor made directly by the Dwarven figure known as the best blacksmith.
Moreover, Torn was not a normal Dwarf blacksmith but rather among the Dwarves though, the ability of the Torn blacksmith was at its best.
It was unknown how much income Myro received through selling weapons and armor. Although Myro tells Torn to only make armor and weapons weaker than what Myro soldiers would have if they were for sale, especially those sold to the followers of King Azeroth V or the 7th prince.
However likely they may become enemies in the future, it is better that their army equipment remains weaker than Myro's so that when the war comes, Myro's forces have an advantage.
Despite being weaker, Torn's armor and weapons were still sold at a great price because Torn's weaker equipment was still on par with the equipment of the Azeroth Kingdom's best blacksmiths.
"Yorou, let your disciple tell Retya to bring the 1000 best soldiers of the Victory Squad, let them head towards the mine as well" Myro said firmly.
The battle at the mine was not suitable for the Mongol Cavalry who had the expertise as cavalry, so Myro only brought the Victory Army that Retya had trained for many years to be loyal to Myro.
Myro only brought 1000 people because the fight in the mine was different from the fight on the wide field, if you fight in a small space, the number of troops too much will not give an advantage but the ability of each soldier is more important.
Therefore, Myro decided to bring 1000 troops but they were the best among his 50,000 Victory Troops. It should bring an army of this enough to defeat the monsters in the cave, even though spiders are known as monsters that often have a lot of cause every time the spider lays eggs, hundreds of new spiders will appear.
"Alright, sir!", replied Yorou who immediately informed the disciple behind her.
Ren who was behind Myro did not speak at all from earlier but continued to lower his head. Myro had been with Ren for quite a while which made him understand, every time Ren looked down like this then he was thinking "Why, Ren? Is there a problem?".
Hearing Myro's question, Ren looked at him before shaking his head "Nothing, no problem whatsoever! I happened to think a little, is it true that there are only monsters in the cave?".
Pard nodded confusedly "Miss Ren, there really is a monster in the cave! As for something other than the spider monster, we didn't see it at all, I don't think there's anything more than the spider monster".
"If that's the case, then there's no problem" Ren said, not asking for more.
Myro knows Ren is doubting something, not to mention Ren's hunch is often right. The reason why Ren's hunch is often true is that Ren's hunch comes from his intelligence, he is able to think about the peculiarities of every problem.
But Myro does not ask Ren first, so they go to the cave directly so that Ren can find out whether the premonition is right or not.
"We will go to the cave first while Retya and his troops will follow later" Myro said.
Everyone nodded in agreement, Myro went towards the mayor's building where Feld worked to tell the purpose of Myro's departure and let Feld prepare a horse carriage towards the mine.
Feld did not ask much, he did everything Myro said earlier and sent Myro away from Loth City.
As a noble, Myro did not have to take care of documents every day like before. Especially now that the number of their government employees was enough, so Myro could leave without any problems.
When knowing Myro's decision, Retya did not waste a single moment.
He allowed the 1000 best Victory Troops to prepare the horses and go to the mines as quickly as possible.
The movement of 1000 troops who went from the city barracks city must be quite interesting, but the residents did not panic at all because according to them, they said, as long as there is a Victory Count then the Victory Province should also not experience any problems.
Not long after, Myro's horse carriage arrived at the mine. Feld prepared 2 horse carriages because Myro was carrying too many people.
Since the road to all the important cities and areas in the Victory Province was completed according to the Myro decision, transportation in the Victory Province became easier.
Especially those who become traders, with the easier transportation, their merchandise is able to move faster, which means their profits are also added a lot.
Myro benefited because every time a trade had to pay taxes, so with the increasing number of merchant profits, the profits that Myro got increased.
Descending from his carriage, Myro was greeted by several soldiers who were in charge of guarding the mine.
