THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 321: COUNT HORGANEF
As Myro's forces drew closer to the border between the northern regions of Azeroth Kingdom and Diamant Kingdom, they found hundreds of thousands of soldiers were marching on the border waiting for them.
Seeing the appearance of hundreds of thousands of soldiers at the border, many Myro troops began to pull their weapons. However, most of the enemy troops used different armor, namely the armor of Count Horganef and Kalikav and Grand Duke Rayde. Although Grand Duke Rayde was Myro's partner, the arrival of his troops here along with 2 other forces made Myro's troops to be careful.
But Falka who was in front of the troops with Myro waved her hand "Down your weapons! Do you not see Mayor Feld and head of the Victory Provincial security forces, Lopen among them?".
Hearing Falka's words, all the soldiers soon realized Feld and Lopen were standing in front of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers while carrying thousands of Praetorian Guard with them.
Since taking control of 2 provinces, Myro changed the position of Lopen and Chi Sang Li.
Lopen was in charge of maintaining security in Victory Province with the Praetorian Guard, all guards in Victory Province were under Lopen.
Chi Sang Li was stationed in the newly formed Tanrou Province. Although Muteki served as governor and was able to lead the troops, Myro could not give Muteki the task of being the head of the guard force as well or Muteki might die from overwork.
Therefore, Myro sent Chi Sang Li with Podocheong to help Muteki. In addition to being the head of the guard, Chi Sang Li can help Muteki train the military as well as fight the rebellion.
Don't forget, the territory of Tanrou Province used to be the Orc-Goblin Kingdom as well as the northern mountains which caused them to not really surrender to Myro. Throughout the Victory Province, there was a great deal of resistance either clearly or secretly.
For that reason, the always busy Muteki was finally able to take a little rest after the appearance of Chi Sang Li. Moreover, Chi Sang Li came from the World and gained Myro's trust, he need not hesitate to be betrayed by Chi Sang Li who was different from Taredo.
Upon discovering the arrival of Myro's forces, Feld along with Lopen, Carla, Loir, and 2 men whom Myro did not know stepped forward.
They all knelt down in front of Myro and were followed by the hundreds of thousands of soldiers behind them "We welcome the return of the Victory Duke and hero of Azeroth Kingdom, General Kelrun who has been guarding the border for decades!".
Carla smiled and continued to speak as everyone was silent "Finally General Kelrun could return to the Kingdom of Azeroth and be buried properly, if the general was still alive, he must be very grateful because most of the soldiers who guard the border are not interested in wealth or power at all, they just try to live peacefully and die like a soldier!".
As a result of Carla's words, many of the soldiers around were touched and thought Myro was a very good person but unlike King Azeroth VI, Myro dared to act directly, not just be nice.
So in the minds of many soldiers, even soldiers Kalikav and Count Horganef, they gave Myro the judgment as a good leader.
Myro slightly smiled, This Carla remains unchanged even though she has been in Loth City for quite some time, Carla is still as cunning as before.
He said these words so that the soldiers would be more grateful to Myro, so that support for Myro in the alliance became stronger.
Although Carla acted without a decision from Myro, but she really helped so Myro smiled "As a noble of the kingdom, it should have been me acting to help the hero of the kingdom. Then, you guys haven't introduced me to the 2 guys there yet? But I think I already know their identity, whether you are Kalikav and Count Horganef".
As for Kalikav, he did not need to kneel because he was not a follower of Myro. But he had changed his judgment of Myro, especially since Myro had defeated Diamant I and brought Kellerun's corpse.
Kalikav came from the military so he certainly had met Kelrun, even they were quite close because he was a soldier from Herfu.
When knowing Kalikav was his friend's soldier, Kelrun was certainly friendly towards Kalikav.
Not to mention that Myro was able to defeat King Diamant I which meant that the power in Myro's hands was quite strong, at least the army he had was not Myro's opponent at all. Therefore, Kalikav is not like Count Horganef who attaches importance to the arrogance of a noble, Kalikav admits Myro has the ability and is suitable to earn his respect.
Hearing Myro's question, Kalikav said first "Mr Duke, I am Kalikav, I used to be a soldier under General Herfu. I have heard of Master Duke's great courage, kindness and strength on the battlefield, therefore I agree to form an alliance with Master Duke. When I found out Mr. Duke was coming back, I decided to join you with the 100,000 troops I have to show our alliance cooperation".
Count Horganef stared at Kalikav slightly before sighing, if it continues like this, Myro most likely managed to take control of the entire northern region of Azeroth Kingdom.
Even so, Count Horganef understood he could do absolutely nothing. As long as he dared to fight, the entire north of the kingdom would fight him.
Unless King Azeroth VI or King Diamant I intervened, it was almost impossible against the great power of Myro now.
Count Horganef who had no other choice bowed slightly to Myro "I've heard of the prowess of the Victory Duke like General Kalikav so I came here with my troops to greet Master Duke as well, I agreed to form an alliance in the north of the kingdom so that we remain neutral from the fight between the 2 kings on the other side".
Myro observed Kalikav and Count Horganef carefully. Although Myro had not received enough recognition to become king, he was convinced that he would soon be able to become king. For that reason, Myro had to clear first all the forces fighting him in the north so that he could become king without any problems.
For Kalikav, Myro knew there was no problem. Kalikav may not have given up completely on Myro, but if Herfu persuaded him, Myro was sure Kalikav would have been loyal.
The problem now was Count Horganef, it seemed like he still rejected Myro.
If he is not faithful now, Myro does not mind because he needs some more time before becoming king.
But when Myro's time as king has come and Count Horganef's decision has not changed, Myro will certainly take firm steps.
However the power of Count Horganef should not be underestimated, if Myro was late in cleaning it and he cooperated with the other 2 kings, Myro would have had problems.
Therefore, Myro decided to send more headquarters troops to keep an eye on Count Horganef.
