The battle will start tomorrow. Locke wiped his long sword boredly. Although the notification has not come down, the atmosphere in the camp has obviously changed a lot.
Every veteran can feel the dullness of the mountains and rains, which is the rhythm of the war.
The New Year's party two days ago didn't feel so good for Locke. He went there and found out that the nobles who participated were all big men above the viscount. Lower nobles like Baron Kaidozi and Will Knight were not invited.
Well, when Locke went, he was sitting in the corner and eating. He didn't know any big people around him, and he didn't want to mess with any of them.
As for the reason, I don't know if it was because of the vulgarity of his behavior, and Locke's vulgarity in his bones was incompatible with the atmosphere of this aristocratic party.
Their corps commander George also came to the party. Locke wanted to go up and say hello. After all, the corps commander was not thin to himself, but the corps commander George came to just show his face and talk to several big people. Left after a few words.
It embarrassed Locke, who had just seen the only acquaintance. According to Locke's guess, it should be the beginning of the war. Commander George, as the commander of a corps, must always stay in the Ministry of War to pay attention to the situation.
The facts were not far from what Locke had guessed. Not only the commander of the George Corps, but also dozens of commanders and deputy commanders of the Faustin military did not attend the dinner.
As for the other person Locke knew, the Viscount Myerson who gave him a fortune, this amazing and recognizable big man, Locke has never seen.
Except for Princess Angelina who came to stay with him for a while, the rest of the time, Locke was either eating or resting.
Well, there was also a period of time when he was seen as a monkey by other nobles.
The arrival of Princess Angelina attracted the attention of a large number of other nobles, and everyone was very curious about this Locke who appeared here.
From that day on, everyone in the battalion, including the new recruits, knew that Locke was about to take off. Locke went to a party that none of their barons could attend.
This made Locke have some troubles. The gun was the first bird, and Locke, who has always been low-key and steady, didn't want to be the first bird.
Also, since 'eating' Grace, this woman's feelings towards Locke have obviously changed a lot, and she is no longer the cold, estranged look she used to be. Yesterday, I was with Xia Qian to take care of Locke's life.
Because of the imminent battle, Locke started self-restraint abstinence. He didn't want to go to the battlefield and be a soft-footed shrimp. So Grace hasn't touched him since that day.
This woman full of extravagance, Locke always has an urge to blaspheme.
Of course he didn't forget what he promised Grace. Grace was very smart and didn't mention it, because she already knew Locke's character and would do her best when she said it. She believed that the man she was committed to would not disappoint him. .
The long sword in his hand, after being wiped, shone with a weak bright yellow light, which was the proof that bright yellow ore was mixed in it.
Locke likes this equipment more and more. He tried it yesterday. The long sword in his hand can easily pierce a two-centimeter-thick iron sheet. As for the armor, it has not been deformed under the huge force of Hans.
During the dinner in the baron's camp in the afternoon, the baron really put forward the order to launch an attack tomorrow. This is the order just issued by the military department in the morning, and everyone is psychologically prepared.
The combat mission of their battalion was to attack the west gate of Odis City together with the other three battalions of the Second Corps on the third day.
Maybe some people with poor brains will be curious that the Ministry of War will give them such a very low-risk mission. When the mission was announced, most of the squadron leaders who were eating in the tents swiped and turned. Looking at Locke. Including Baron Kedozzi and Will Knight.
Sure enough, the baron finally added, "This seems to be an order from Princess Angelina herself to George's Corps."
Everyone either envied or looked at Locke strangely. Locke has been seen a lot by this kind of eyes in the past two days. Maybe he was a little uncomfortable at first, but by now, he has practiced for a long time. He still drank his own broth calmly, ignoring the gazes of others.
This temperament, this calmness, made Baron Kaidoqi have an illusion that Locke was a big man who had been in high positions for a long time.
Those who are close to Zhu are red, those who are close to ink are black. Since Locke came back, he has been in contact with those big men a lot. Although they all sat far away in the corner and watched them chatting, but invisibly, Locke also learned a lot of behavior among nobles. This should also be what Angelina meant.
As Angelina, as a princess, if Locke wants to combine with her in the future, he must at least have the bearing of a nobleman and get rid of the rusticity of a commoner.
As for why Angelina could order their Second Corps to do such a thing, the reason Angelina gave was to let the Second Corps guard the magician troops that were similar to them at the very beginning.
The magician troop led by Angelina was in the middle of the barracks. Locke's brigade and the other brigades had the task of guarding the northwest corner of the magician troop for the first three days.
Everyone knows that the most tragic thing in the war was in the first few days, Angelina's order perfectly helped Locke and the others to miss this meat grinder moment.
Princess Angelina, who was dubbed as wise by her mentor and elders, did such a small thing that indirectly benefited Locke with ease.
In the early morning of the next day, the entire joint military camp began to move, like a crawling beast, raising its head to show it.
of sharp tusks.
Baron Kaidoqi gathered his troops early and led them forward to the designated position. The magician army hasn't arrived yet, they need to stand firm first.
The Baron of Kashir troops next to them were not so lucky. Their task was particularly arduous. It was said that they would participate in the siege in the afternoon. The first day of the siege was definitely not that simple. Just by looking at the defensive equipment erected on the city wall, you knew that Odis City, the last strong city in Charlo, was not so easy to fight.
If the joint military camp is a large crescent shape, under the mobilization of Faustin's army, soldiers kept moving closer to both sides, completely enclosing the city of Otis into an ellipse.
Previously surrounded by the crescent moon, there were two cavalry regiments waiting on one side, but this time it was all infantry.
The cavalry was not good at attacking cities, so they replaced it with infantry. It can be seen that the Faustin military intends to do it directly.
In the morning, Locke only stuffed two pieces of dough into his arms, and then led the cavalry squadron to advance with the battalion. Xia Qian, Grace and others were taken care of by Henry, the merchant. Of course, I didn't forget what I promised Grace. Locke planned to think of a way when it was their turn to attack the city on the third day.
Grace and Xia Qian and the others were staying at the back of the Eagle Corps, not far from the front line. It would not be difficult to pick up Grace.
Lines of soldiers marched neatly to the front line.
Locke has participated in many battles before, but such large-scale siege battles are rare, only seen in the battle of Petersland at the beginning of the war.
At that time, Locke, who was only a servant, was tasked with transporting supplies and carrying dead bodies every day.
Forstein's military is still very concerned about the recruits who have just joined the army, and will not throw them directly on the front line as cannon fodder.
At this time, when he came into contact with war again and stood at a higher angle, Locke found that war is actually an art.
Faustin's army commander, like an artist, put each formation in the corner of the whole picture just like splashing ink.
Locke only knew how to follow orders to fight before, and suddenly he calmed down and watched the movement of the rest of the troops. Locke seemed to have learned something.
The Faustain army of 100,000 people had just spent half the morning besieging Otis City.
In Faustin's central tent, the Marquis of Mammon was discussing siege matters with his old partner, the Marquis of Sandro.
"Which troop do you plan to let go first?" asked the Marquis of Sandro in military uniform.
Marquis Mammon still looked like a little old man in military uniform. He looked up at Marquis Sandro and said, "After being tossed by Angelina, I plan to let the Third Corps come out."
"Oh?" Marquis Sandro was obviously surprised by Marquis Mammon's proposal, raised his left eye, and asked strangely, "Aren't you afraid of those nobles making trouble?"
The Marquis of Mammon looked indifferent, "Let's make trouble, anyway, it's time to shuffle the cards after the war is over."
The Marquis of Sandro was silent after hearing this.
The siege battle at the beginning was undoubtedly the most difficult and also the most casualty. What the two marquis discussed before was to let the Second Corps go up first, because the Second Corps was strong, and the siege process might have surprises. And it's just a "god son", no matter how big the loss is, the two marquis don't feel distressed.
However, because Princess Angelina asked them to "fuck" some time ago, and forcibly transferred one-third of the strength of the Second Corps, the Marquis of Mammon had to consider the Third Corps.
The overall strength of the 3rd Corps is almost the same as that of the 4th Corps of the New Corps. However, because of the nobles to which it belongs, it does not listen to the propaganda, but it is much weaker than the 4th Corps.
With this decision of the Marquis of Mammon, it is foreseeable that the first private army of nobles sent to attack the city will definitely suffer heavy losses.
The siege mission was decided at the high level as early as the New Year. The Eagle Corps, led by Marquis Mammon and Sandro, attacked the west and north gates of Otis City, and the Lion Corps led by Prince Kensell , the South Gate and East Gate, which are more closely guarded and attacked.
Different from outside the city of Odis, Fausten's army was mobilized in an orderly manner, and the city had become a mess. It was the Charlo defender at the city gate, who was frightened when he saw Faustin soldiers several times his size surrounded them.
In addition, the news of the imminent attack of Faustin's army somehow reached the ears of ordinary residents in the city, and countless robbers and looting incidents occurred, and there were even many arsons in the city. Ordinary citizens who were suppressed by death for a long time became hysterical at the last moment of their lives.
This is also not unrelated to the terrifying remarks made by the top Charlois. In the eyes of the Charlo civilians in Odis City, Faustan soldiers are symbols of demons and jackals. They are brutal and inhumane and will slaughter all Charlois. Among them, the Ellis City massacre that happened some time ago also gave the Charlois the fear of Faustain soldiers.
