It was already midnight when Hu Bin returned to Baicheng, but the flames on the walls of Baicheng were still bright. Archers and heavy armored guards stared at the eastern Aocheng Fortress. Half a day ago, the orcs completely turned into a ruin in the bombardment of the orcs at all costs. The Gondor defenders delayed the orcs' army for two days after paying the price of five hundred regular troops and about two thousand militias. During the break when the orcs launched another strong attack, the Aocheng defenders, who completed the mission and suffered a lot of losses, voluntarily withdrew from the ruins of Aocheng, which meant that Gondor began to retreat to Baicheng in full.

A heavy and depressing atmosphere enveloped Baicheng. There were no more residents wandering in the square on the first floor. They were replaced by fully armed soldiers and a large number of materials piled up on the ground. The engineers continued to debug the deflection angles and landing points of the city's catapults and recorded them on the drawings. A large amount of oil and stones were also confiscated by Baicheng to use as a guard. Women and children and the elderly had been placed in the hidden military cave on the third floor, and all the male men of the age of suitable age were all assigned weapons and armor to be incorporated into the guard army. These complete sets of equipment that originally made them envious was difficult to dispel the fear in their hearts.

"The orc is coming!" In the tavern, a numberer jumped up and down the table, and was drunk in an exaggerated body and funny tone.

"Hahaha!" Everyone in the bar was amused by such a funny performance. Compared with the others in the White City, the numberers who had just made a fortune were not panicked at all for the upcoming orcs. They knew since they joined the Gondor camp that they would fight the orc army sooner or later. If the orcs didn't come, they would have a more headache.

Hu Bin looked at these guys who were not afraid of the world and felt a little emotional. Everyone knew that the orcs would launch a general attack tomorrow. And the only numbered numberers in the Gondor camp will face the last main mission in the Lord of the Rings world.

"Barner, give each of us a big bowl of broth and another bucket of wine!" A shout came from the door of the bar. The numberers all turned their eyes to each other, and the atmosphere in the field became quiet.

"The bartender has gone to take shelter. We have already booked the bar tonight. If you want to eat, go to the kitchen to do it yourself!" A numberer shouted to the group of numberers at the door and sat in, and the person leading the person smiled and nodded to the guy who reminded them, and then led people into the bar.

Because the war is coming, the bar is particularly lively tonight. In order to alleviate the pressure before the war, the numberers are willing to gather here to have a drink to enhance their courage. The seats that were still relatively abundant have long been occupied, but with the numberers' unconventional nature, it is not impossible to sit on the ground.

The group of people who had just come in came to the front of a table. The numberers who were originally sitting there were hesitating for a moment and honestly gave up their seats.

"Thank you!" The man thanked the other party gently, but occupied the table without hesitation.

"What's the origin of this group of people? They are so arrogant?" The voice was not loud, but it was enough for people around to hear it. Others turned their eyes like aliens to the table where the person who was talking was. Even the group who came in before glanced at the place.

"What did I say wrong?" Ta Shield, who looked confused, turned his head and asked to his two companions.

"No. You are just ignorant." Lin said bluntly, too lazy to pay attention to this guy anymore.

Seeing that Lin did not explain the Tadun, Hu Bin had to take over the topic: "These people are the existing leaders of the Numberer Lords Alliance. The person who led the leader was Hebrew, the actual controller of the Numberer Lords Alliance. The beauty next to her was called Daier, but her name and personality really did not match her."

Dai'er felt Hu Bin's peeping. She turned her head and looked over. Hu Bin smiled and raised her glass to indicate that she was coldly ignored.

Hu Bin continued to Ta Dun with no concern: "The guy wearing half-armor is a wild wolf, and the last one is David." When he said David, Hu Bin showed a strange smile on his face. Gandalf should have received the information he provided, but this guy was still in the White City and was not dealt with. It seems that the Regent has a lot of resentment towards the lord alliance.

"So they are the legendary numberers who have obtained the status of Gondor Lord! But there are not eight people in total, why are there only half of them left?" Ta Dun continued to ask without any hesitation, and the numberers present looked at him with pity and gloating.

The lord named Wild Wolf could not bear it anymore and was about to stand up and teach Tashield a lesson, but was soon grabbed by Hebrew.

"I mean, they first died in the south and two died in the north. Who knows where the remaining one disappeared? Maybe they had been killed by the orcs long ago!" Someone didn't know which numberer was secretly a numberer seemed to be disgusted with the style of those lords and said sarcastically.

"That bastard said, I have the will to stand up." The wild wolf finally couldn't help but roar.

"Stand up and stand up, just what I said. You guys have long disliked you guys. Many brothers from the same camp were tricked into the north by you and you were tricked into being cannon fodder. They died there with them if they had the attitude to run back. If they had the attitude, they didn't have the shame to tell us?" A numberer stood up slammed the table, and many of the numberer present looked at the wild wolf with a bad look. Many of their acquaintances died in the sneak attack in the north.

The wild wolf was blown up by the numberer, but he couldn't refute anything. The discord within the lord alliance could not be told to outsiders. Although Li left them aside and went to the north to sneak attack the Lun supply line, the mistake of almost completely destroyed was in the name of the lord alliance was nothing wrong. After all, they were just different factions and were still unified in the camp.

Thinking of this, the wild wolf looked at David, who was sitting there without reaction, and finally sat back on his seat, grabbed the wine pot carried by his subordinates, and began to drink wine desperately.

"Tsk. Just a bunch of lucky bastards, they still think they are some people. But they are just poor people struggling in the space like us." Seeing the other party silence, the numberer couldn't continue to make trouble, so he muttered and sat back in his seat.

"Reed, I know the three dead, but who is the missing number lord?" Ta Dun felt that the trouble was not big enough and worked tirelessly to die.

"That guy is called Ben, you have seen him too." Hu Bin seemed to remember something interesting.

"Where is it? Why don't I remember it?" Ta Dun asked anxiously.

"Of course on the Silver Moon Issue! Do you remember to eat, you idiot?" Lin finally couldn't stand it anymore and casually told the secret of heaven.

"I just turned out to be that sucker! No wonder, only he can call on so many numberers to act together." Ta Dun suddenly realized, and finally remembered that the numberer who had rented Yinyue to try to welcome Aragon was also called Ben.

Hu Bin lowered his head silently. He didn't expect that he had a deep relationship with the lord alliance, but they would be cheated when they had an intersection with him several times. I wonder if Gandalf and the Regent saw this and pushed themselves to their opposite side.

"Bang!" The light sound of the wine glass colliding with the table attracted Hu Bin's gaze.

"My mind if I sit here and have a drink with you, Lord Reed." Hebrew's voice came from opposite Hu Bin.

"Of course..." Hu Bin said with a smile. Then his smile suddenly rippled "...I'm very concerned."

"Thank you!" Hebrew sat opposite Hu Bin, and after seeing this scene, the other numbers asked others who were sitting at the table.

"I have heard of the name of Your Excellency Reed, but I didn't expect to see you myself today." Hebrew said polite words with a smile, but he had no intention of being polite.

"The reputation of the people is not as good as that of you, the Hebrew Lord, who is known as the number one of the Gondor camps." Hu Bin hated the guy in front of him. But I have to say that he is very capable.

"I'm so glad, your reputation in White City is very prominent, much better than me, the little lord." Hebrew knew very well that each numberer who joined the alien camp received different degrees of rewards. It is easier to obtain some precious items in the alien camp, such as the numberer of the elves in front of him, who had sold food like Lambas. After Hebrew received this news, he carefully investigated the numberer. However, as his investigation deepened, the numberer named Reed surprised him more and more. Finally, he had reached the point where he had to pay attention to it.

"If you have something to say, you're okay, get out!" Lin also knew that Hu Bin had a bad relationship with these number lords, and this guy named Hebrew, who looked sarcastic and unhappy, seemed even more annoying than that bastard Tadun.

After hearing Lin's words, Hu Bin tried his best to hold back his smile, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Even he suffered losses and was scolded by Lin's temperament. This Hebrew lord simply hit the gun.

Hu Bin thought about Hebrew's reaction, maybe he broke up his face in anger, maybe he was ignoring Lin with a thick face, maybe he smiled it smoothly, maybe he was stiff in his face, but he didn't expect Hebrew to apologize to Lin with a wry smile.

"Sorry, Ms. Lin, I have something important to talk to Mr. Reed tonight, so please be more tolerant."

Even Lin was embarrassed to make trouble for Hebrew if he didn't hit the smiley person.

"Hisser Reid, I won't go around the circle anymore. I know that the senior leaders of Baicheng have great opinions on our lord alliance, but the orcs will attack the city tomorrow. In fact, we and Baicheng are already an ant on the same rope. I know very well that the Baicheng Gang wants to use you to resist us, but now we have no conflicts of interest. I believe that Baicheng has not made any other arrangements for us in the future!" Hebrew put away his hypocrisy and said in a sincere tone.

"That's right, now it's the moment of life and death in Baicheng. All interests must be based on the victory of this battle. It seems that I have some preconceptions." Hu Bin secretly reflected on whether he was too preconceived. In the future, he might be fighting side by side with the guy in front of him, but Hu Bin did not show any expression on his face.

"It seems that Mr. Reid has figured it out, so I will just say it directly. We want to form an alliance with you." The Hebrew words surprised the others again, and more people began to reexamine Hu Bin sitting there.

"You, isn't this your personal attention? It's the result of discussion between you lords? Sorry, I don't think I have anything worthy of your alliance to make friends with you." Hu Bin's face finally showed a hint of surprise.

"No. You have it! I believe that Lord Reed's battle contribution has been completed a lot!" Hebrew said firmly, while Hu Bin smiled unanimously.

"I had contacted me before when I set out to find Aragon and the Ghost Legion. I was curious at that time how he found the ship to sea. The results of the investigation surprised me even more. I didn't expect that the ship actually belonged to you. But at that time I was wondering why you didn't go out to sea to find Aragon to monopolize this contribution. Later I realized that the space had laid a huge pit for our Gondor camp, and what is most admirable is that you thought of this at that time." Hebrew looked at Hu Bin with a bright look.

"What are you trying to say?" Hu Bin was not surprised that Hebrew would find this. After all, he could think of it, and others were no exception.

"I have no other intentions. Although the Aragonese ghost army is not essential for this battle, it cannot give up easily. Someone must always bear this responsibility. Thank you to your ships, otherwise we will not even have a chance to choose." Hebrew explained hurriedly. Then hesitated for a moment and then whispered: "In fact, our lord's main mission is different from those of others."

"Oh?" Hu Bin finally heard something he was interested in.

"Unlike other numberers, we have only one main task, that is, to ensure that Baicheng will not be completely captured." Hebrew seemed to breathe a sigh of relief after saying these words.

"Although we have various conveniences of the lord, we can even recruit our own guards and maintain a certain amount of troops, the corresponding one is that we must ensure that Baicheng will not fall. Therefore, no matter how big the conflict between us and the senior management of Baicheng is, we cannot have some selfish thoughts at this time." Hebrew said in a leisurely manner.

"So why did you have to support yourself before and arouse the disgust of the senior executives of Baicheng?" Hu Bin asked in confusion.

"There are inexplicable taxes on various wars. They want us new lords to come up with more materials, but those old lords don't need to do so. Now it seems that it is just exploitation of us." Hebrew said with some resentment.

"So you refused?"

"Of course. As the numberer, how could we agree? Then the later lords' council, Baicheng refused to let us participate."

Hu Bin was also present at the second lord meeting. He thought that these numbered lords themselves did not attend the meeting, but unexpectedly it was because of Baicheng.

"So what happened to that operation in the north? Didn't you use this to threaten Baicheng to give more rewards?" Hu Bin had a premonition that he was getting closer and closer to the truth.

"That mission was led by Li. I don't know the specific situation, but according to Baicheng's usual style, the reward given is probably not enough for us to consume on the road. So many numberers follow us to make a living. If you don't fight for it, would you let them drink the northwest wind?"

Hu Bin wanted to see some flaws in Hebrew's face, but the more he looked, the more he felt that he was telling the truth.

"Impossible! The Regent allocated a lot of funds to you, but you still did not agree to send troops. This was what Gandalf told me in person. He had no reason to deceive me." Although Hu Bin said this, he could not convince himself.

"It seems that there may be some misunderstandings in the middle, but we have indeed suffered from difficulties from Baicheng. This is beyond doubt. This has greatly hindered our plan to complete the main task." Hebrew said with a bitter face.

"Then, the purpose of your request to form an alliance with me is to ease your relationship with Baicheng?" Hu Bin understood the meaning of Hebrew.

"Of course it's not just these. We would like to ask you to help us apply for some tasks with rich contributions. I believe that Your Excellency Reed, known as the God of Wealth, will not even be able to do this!" Okoff said with a smile.

"Contribution? What do you want and what do you do?"

"Although we don't need it, the numberers under our command still need it very much. They have paid a lot for the victory of this battle, but have missed many opportunities because of our reasons."

Hu Bin touched his nose and remained silent. He played a lot of role in this matter. He began to quietly think about the whole thing, constantly reflecting on the words of Baicheng and the numberer lord, but found that if Hebrew did not lie on the content of the main mission, then they did not have any reason to offend Baicheng for some small profits. And if they really did this, there would not be so many numberer support.

Thinking of this, Hu Bin felt that the truth of the matter was about to surface, but he still lacked some important information in his speculation, but this would not affect the alliance with the Hebrews. If they were asked to confront Baicheng, the lack of information would be revealed.

"I agree to form an alliance, but there is a condition." Hu Bin raised his head and looked at Hebrew, while Ta Dun and Lin, who were a little divine, pricked their ears.
