Chapter 55, Duke with a Cold Face_1

After a brief conversation, Hudson understood Harley's purpose.

As expected, the situation in Dapes was tense, and they needed to trigger some movements.

Severing the supply line of the Orc Army was indeed a great objective, one that couldn't be thought up over just a few drinks.

Hudson assumed that the folks at the capital harbored no such fantasies. Their main aim was to prompt action and stop the continuous reinforcements of the Orcs.

Despite the lack of specific data, based on the troop movements of the Bearman Imperial Court, Hudson estimated that the number of Orcs besieging Dapes would not be less than 300,000.

This number was still growing, though the elite forces were only those initially present. There seemed to be no limit to the cannon fodder.

The cause of all this was clear to Hudson without investigation. Simply put, native nobles were easier to bully and obtaining food supplies was less difficult.

Any castle taken would result in substantial gain.
