Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 487: Caltock
Chapter 487 Caltock
The white snowy field has long lost its cleanliness. There are broken walls everywhere, burnt villages and towns, villages and towns that have been burnt to the ground, frozen to iron blue corpses and large bloodstains, and there are occasional choking sounds in the cold wind. Despair and sorrow in sternness. The formerly fertile and peaceful Falik Plains was once again attacked by bad neighbors from the north, and blood stained the entire plain.
Falik Plains seven cities, Morante City is one of the largest pearls, and the remaining six cities are fortress cities that protect this pearl. His Majesty King Ogsereau I of Andinak Kingdom, angered by Trade Union's conspiracy last year, led the army to make a comeback, not only regaining the Armenian and Malivia provinces attributed to Trade Union, but also almost destroying the main force of Trade Union, armed forces. Nearly 300,000 troops died.
This is the heaviest blow to Trade Union. It is also a slap on the face of Trade Union, which claims to be the largest country of Grindia Continent, so that everyone in Trade Union understands a very simple truth, no Even if there are as many gold coin(s)s as powerful military power, no matter how large the territory is, it will not be able to become a great country. On the contrary, in the eyes of the enemy, this is just a piece of fat.
Last year, the Andinak Kingdom army broke into Falik Plains, and successively went to the three cities of Bruvik, Leit, and Credo. At the same time, Hunting Cavalry Legion and Flying Tiger Legion of Northern Land Norton Family armed forces also plundered the two provinces of Jedlink and Marvelin, causing Trade Union Huge loss of population and materials. Since the second half of last year, Hunting Cavalry Legion and Flying Tiger Legion have once again looted five provinces around Falik Plains, looting a large amount of grain and armament materials, which greatly delayed the plan of Trade Union to mobilize troops to reinforce Falik Plains.
But the Andinak Kingdom army's evil actions in Falik Plains and the provinces around the country angered the entire Trade Union people. Twinhead Dragon Chamber of Commerce Combright, one of the Trade Union six giants, issued a public declaration in Morante City, vowing never to give up on Andinak Kingdom. He said that for two hundred years, the wolves from the north have been salivating to Falik Plains, and intended to swallow the rich Falik Plains, but the hard-working and brave Trade Union people would never want to be slaves. They longed for freedom and equality and paid a huge price. The northern wolf was expelled from the Fariciu Plains to protect his homeland.
The forty years of peace was exchanged by the ancestors of the Trade Union people for their blood and life, but now the northern wolf has regained his spirit and came to invade Falik Plains again. I believe that the brave Trade Union people will not be afraid of the sharp minions of the evil wolf. No matter how much blood we bleed and how much we pay, we will still pick up our bows and spears, and be mortal with this evil wolf. decisive battle. But this time we will never forgive this evil wolf from the north with tolerance, we will defeat and win the wolf, and we will never leave the army without killing this evil wolf!
President Comberwright's declaration won the applause and response of the Morante City residents. Countless residents signed up for the Self-Defense Force recruited by Trade Union and the newly formed three defensive Legion. Soon Trade Union once again had nearly 100,000 troops. They were sent to three unsettled fortress cities, Thomas City, Gypsy City, and Robertvia City, to defend the attack of the Andinak Kingdom army and maintain Trade Union on Falik Plains. Defensive front.
"Trade Union thought it is still a hundred years ago? Such an old-fashioned defensive tactic is still useful? Hey!" Second Highness watched more than ten catapult smashed a small fortress built along the river, wearing a gray-white White Lion Legion soldier(s) in winter clothes yelled and screamed in, and soon the screams and screams of dying came from the small fortress ...
The richness of Falik Plains is inseparable from the water irrigation facilities throughout the plain and the artificial canals of large and small interlaced sizes. In peace, these artificial canals are the guarantee for the harvest of irrigated acres and the transportation of commercial goods. The main road of traffic, but when the war came, these artificial canals became the enemies that the enemy could not cross. Together with the temporary fortress barriers, the entire Falik Plains became a deep and wide defense network.
"Your Majesty, even though Trade Union knows that we can carry out raids in the snow and winter, we can't come up with effective defense measures. They can only watch us cross the artificial canals and ditches, smashing with catapult Break those who think they are strong fortress barriers! "It was Second Highness's close friend, Golden Knight Lippired, who commanded Captain, the first Legion of the attacking White Lion.
Second Highness tasted the sweetness in the war that raided the western Northern Land district in the winter of the previous year. At the same time, because of its rich seizure, it ordered the batch of gold fordes magical beast fur that was purchased at a discount from Lorist to be made into one piece The winter outfit is equipped for Her Majesty's White Lion First Legion. The purpose is to also use the winter season to unexpectedly launch a raid on the defense network on Falik Plains, trying to capture the remaining three fortress cities on Falik Plains in one fell swoop, under Morante City.
Although Trade Union made some preparations to prevent the Andinak Kingdom army from launching raids in the winter, I did not expect that the crisscross artificial canals on the Falik Plains would be frozen in the winter, and the old days became a smooth road, isolated. The fortresses on the snowfield were smashed into ruins by catapult. The soldier(s) defending Legion defending these small fortresses has nowhere to go, either in a decisive battle or obediently surrendering their weapons and surrendering. It took only ten days for Andinak Kingdom's White Lion Legion to break through the first defensive line formed by more than one hundred fortress barriers and hit the city of Robertvia.
Caltock stood at the head of the city of Robertvia, watching the fortress walls that were smashed into ruins in the distance, and the soldier(s) of White Lion Legion, which was closing the team to gather for rest, and his face was gloomy and very heavy. The wall was full of tension, and every defender soldier(s) knew in his heart that in the afternoon, those abominable Andinak Kingdom soldier(s) would launch an attack on the city under his feet, and by then no one was sure that he would survive the battle unharmed. .
I was once a member of the army on the opposite side, that of the legendary Andinak Kingdom King Ogersero I. But now he stood opposite him, and he became his enemy. In the opinion of His Majesty King, he is just a deserter. Caltock bitterly recalls the past.
17 or eighteen years ago, Caltock was still a very young Dawn Academy student. He joined the Sword Art meeting with Lorist as the president because he worshiped the legend of the college Black Iron Locke, and soon became an elite member and Dawn Academy trainee Sword Art Instructor. . At that time, he thought that he would soon become the next legend of the college.
It is Lorist's northbound change of his life. It is Charade's flicker that made him give up his good future in Dawn Academy. He is willing to follow Lorist to go north and prepare to use his talents and blood for his ordinary home expo. Become one of the distinguished and extraordinary Aristocrat(s) in the eyes of parents.
Through the northbound road, you have become dazzling like a sharpened sword. Among the 36 Dawn Academy students who followed Lorist northward, at that time already became a member of a ten-member council that could decide the return of caravan to the North, and even had a lot of influence in caravan armed forces.
Later caravan arrived at Andinak Kingdom, the King of the Andinak Kingdom opposite him. At that time, he was only called Second Highness. He valued himself so much and persuaded himself to change to his lord. At that time, I was really said to be tempted, or the dazzling name of Wang Knight(s) was dazzled, and even the ghosts agreed to it, becoming one of the seven Dawn Academy students who transferred to Second Highness.
Remember that when leaving the camp of northbound caravan, Charade, Terman and Doles, the former college friends of Lummer looked at their eyes full of scorn and disdain, and gave their self-esteem a blow Enraged into anger. At that time, they thought they were stupid. Like Lorist, even if they returned to the family Territory to inherit the title, they have not become a small Lord(s) Knight(s). And himself, but for the future King, and the identity is still the distinguished royal family Knight(s).
Imagination is so beautiful, but reality is so cruel. After becoming the Knight(s) of the royal family, I found out that I was not reused by Second Highness. On the contrary, the 26 Knight(s)s who took part in Second Highness from Norton Family northbound caravan, including their seven students, became the pawns of Second Highness during the formation and broke the Madras Dukedom border. During the siege and defense of the Iron Guard Legion breakout, two students who had turned to Second Highness for less than a month killed two.
Then the Great River of the River, attacked the two southwestern provinces, Cambona Province , until the soldiers under the Federica King City forced the great prince to cede the two southwestern provinces to lay the great reputation of Grindia Continent New Army God for Second Highness, but he cried without tears. Because the only seven students who have joined Second Highness together are only themselves and Sunde.
Lorist later came to Imperial Capital to present Empire rebellious Second Prince, Iberia Kingdom King to Second Highness. Seeing myself, I also participated in the Paradise Gathering organized by Princess Kerry. He told Lorist about his unwillingness under Second Highness, Lorist advised himself to come back and said that he was responsible for everything. It was just that when they remembered Charade when they parted, they looked at him with disdain, and hesitated again.
Sende did not escape the end of the deadly battlefield. He was frostbite when Second Highness crossed Cloud Breaking Mountain Range and Daxue Mountain Strike Federica King City. Then he took the wound and sacrificed under the long guard of the palace guard because he could not avoid it when he captured the palace. Finally, he was discouraged and left Second Highness without leaving, returning to Morante City.
After returning to Morante City, I discovered that it was not only myself, but the entire Trade Union had changed. The Lord System was implemented, and a large number of Territory Aristocrat(s) were sealed off. The kingdom that perished and occupied the land. I originally wanted to come back and be a free Mercenary, but I did not expect that the industry in Morante City Mercenary has long since fallen. I want to go to the college in the college area again to find a Instructor ambassador, but I find that the college cannot recruit students. Not only are many colleges already closed, but the remaining colleges are also streamlining the Instructor staff so that they can be maintained longer.
What the **** is going on in this world, changing so fast, makes it difficult for me to adapt. Caltock would feel very confused, staying at home for nearly a year, and became a full otaku. If not Caltock's parents are a pair of very marketable Morante City residents, his brother was afraid that this Little Brother would come home to rob the property that his parents would leave in the future. Maybe Caltock will stay at home with the gold coin(s) earned by them over the years Until I grow old.
When the parents of Caltock knew that their second son had become a Knight(s) of Golden Rank, they were overjoyed, and then they were forced to die in front of Caltock. Finally, they forced Caltock to become the third-rate Chamber of Commerce Gold guard for his father. And his father also succeeded in becoming a steward of that Chamber of Commerce.
Things change, things are wrong. I finally faced Second Highness. Caltock smiled bitterly and looked at the White Lion Legion banner in the cold wind again, and looked at the seven pale faces around him. This is Robert Via, along with the remaining seven of the eight thousand captains, including the second- and third-rate Chamber of Commerce brawlers or **** leaders who have not played on the battlefield. Their Battle Qi cultivation are all above Silver, but all are Haven't experienced much battle.
Caltock is now the eleventh Captain of the second defensive Legion newly formed by Trade Union. His eight thousand-man brigade, in addition to himself serving as the first team's Great Captain, is a team of eight thousand people. The Morante City residents and the Chamber of Commerce guards who were stunned by the blood, their mission is to defend the city of Robertvia, people are in the city, and the city is destroyed.
"There is nothing to be nervous about, our walls are much stronger than those of the small fortresses, and those catapults are not so easy to destroy our walls. And I have calculated that the launch distance of those catapult is only two or three hundred meters away, just in the We defend the firing range of the city ballista. If the enemy launches an attack, we can use a few defenders ballista to deal with a catapult. As long as the catapult is destroyed, the enemy will not be able to attack our city ... "Caltock is for It was only deliberately that the minds of the people who relieved them said so.
"I didn't lie to you." Caltock encouraged loudly: "catapult is nothing terrible, you know why I let you put sandbags on the wall? Just to resist the attack of catapult, as long as we hide in these sandbags Later, it would be useless to throw stones without hitting us directly. You do n’t believe that your luck will be so bad? ”
"Yes, but catapult will smash our walls, open a hole and let the enemy rush in ..." said a pale-faced captain.
"I expected this early. If the city wall is broken, we can throw these sandbags down and fill this hole." Caltock replied calmly.
"I, we are dead, and let's run away ..." A guy was about to collapse.
"Asshole! Where are you going to flee, how can you flee in the snow and ice, let alone the two wooden bars under the enemy's feet are you fast? If you talk nonsense, I will kill you with a sword!" Caltock Anger, just wanting to slap the guy so that he can wake up. At present, this situation is nothing but hard defense. I never thought that a thin layer of ice had formed on the ground, and "slipping" almost slipped.
"Who splashed tea on the ground!" Caltock was furious, and then his mind flashed, suddenly remembering the experience of watering the ice to resist magical beast, which Lorist said before.
Caltock became angry: "I have a way, catapult don't want to break our walls!"
...
