Heimarian Odyssey

The war is about to start tomorrow. Locke wiped his long sword boredly. Although the notice has not yet come down, the atmosphere in the camp has obviously changed a lot.

Every veteran can feel the dullness of the rain, which is the rhythm of the war.

The New Year’s party two days ago didn’t feel so good for Locke. He only found out after he went there that the nobles who participated were all great characters above the Viscount. Inferior nobles like Baron Cardoj and Will Knight are not invited.

Well, when Locke went, he was sitting in the corner and eating. He didn’t know any of the great characters around him, and he didn’t want to mess with any of them.

As for the reason, I don’t know if it’s the vulgar behavior, the civilian air of Locke in the bones, and the atmosphere of this noble party.

Their George Corps commander also came to this party. Locke wanted to go up and say hello. After all, the Corps commander is not bad to himself, but the George Corps commander came just to show his face and talk to some great characters. After a few sentences, he left.

Locke, who had just seen only one acquaintance, was embarrassed. According to Locke’s guess, it should be a war general. The commander of the George Corps, as the commander of the Corps, had to stay in the Department of Defense to pay attention to the situation.

The facts are not much different from Locke’s guess. Not only the commander of the George Corps, but dozens of commanders and deputy commanders of the Faustan military did not attend the dinner.

As for the other person Locke knew, Viscount Myerson, who gave him a windfall, this amazingly large and recognizable great character, Locke did not see him.

Except for Angelina Princess who came over and stayed with him for a while, the rest of the time, Locke was either eating or resting.

Well, for a while, it was seen by other nobles as monkeys.

Angelina Princess’s arrival 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 camp, including the newly arrived recruits, knew that Locke was about to take off. Locke actually went to a game that Baron couldn’t attend.

This made Locke a bit annoyed. He shot his head shot. Locke, who had been low-key and steady, didn’t want to be that shot.

Also, since the’eat’ Grace, the woman’s feeling towards Locke has changed a lot. It is no longer the coldness before, there is always a barrier. Yesterday, I took care of Locke’s life with Xia Qian.

Because the battle was about to start, Locke started self-restrained abstinence. He didn’t want to be on 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.

He promised Grace, and of course he did not forget. Grace was very clever and did not mention it, because she already understood Locke’s character and would do her best if she said it. She believed that the man she committed to would not let him down. .

The long sword in his hand, after being wiped, flashed with a weak bright yellow light, which is the proof of the mixed yellow pyrite.

Locke likes this equipment more and more. He tried it yesterday. The long sword in his hand can easily pierce through a 2 cm thick piece of iron. As for the armor, it hasn’t been deformed under the powerful impact of a robust man like Hans.

During the dinner at Baron’s camp in the afternoon, Baron really gave the order to launch an offensive tomorrow. This was the order issued by the Ministry of War this morning, and everyone was mentally prepared.

The combat mission of their battalion was to attack the west city gate of Otis City with the remaining three groups of the 3nd Corps on the 2rd day.

Perhaps some people with poor brains would be curious that the Ministry of Defense would give them such a mission with extremely low risk. At the moment when the mission was promulgated, most of the Captains who were eating in the camp would shua and turn. Head looked towards Locke. Including Baron Cardoj and Will Knight.

Sure enough, Baron finally added, “This seems to be an order from Angelina Princess herself to the George Corps.”

Everyone was either envious or looked at Locke strangely. Locke has been seen a lot by this look in the past two days. Maybe he was a little uncomfortable at first, but by now, it doesn’t matter if he has practiced. Still sipping his own broth calmly, ignoring the eyes of others.

This temperament, this calmness, makes Baron Cardoj have an illusion that Locke is a great character that has been highly regarded.

Those who are near Zhu are red and those who are near Mo are black. Since Locke came back, he has been in contact with those great characters. Although they are sitting far away in the corner and watching them chatting, invisibly, Locke has also learned a lot of behavior among nobles. This should also be what Angelina meant.

Angelina, as a Princess, if Locke wants to combine with her in the future, she must at least be aristocratic and get rid of the rusticity of a commoner.

As for why Angelina could order their 2nd Corps to do this kind of thing, the reason Angelina gave was that when the 2nd Corps first guarded the magician troops close to them.

The magician unit led by Angelina was in the middle of the barracks. Locke and the other battalions had the task of guarding the northwest corner of the magician unit for the first three days.

Everyone knows that the most tragic part of the war was in the first few days. Angelina’s order perfectly helped Locke and they missed this meat grinder moment.

The wise Angelina Princess was dubbed by her mentor and elders. This kind of small thing that indirectly benefits Locke is handy.

In the early morning of the 2nd day, the entire joint barracks began to move, like a creeping giant beast, with its sharp fangs showing up.

Baron Cardoj assembled his troops early and led them to the designated position. The magician troops have not arrived yet, they need to stand firm first.

The Kashgar Baron troops next to them are not so lucky. Their task is particularly difficult. It is said that they will participate in the siege in the afternoon. The siege on the first day is definitely not that simple. Just look at the one after another defensive equipment erected on the city wall and you will know that Otis City, Shalor’s last strong city, is not so easy to fight.

If the joint barracks are in the shape of a large meniscus, under the mobilization of Faustan’s army, soldiers are constantly approaching the 2 sides, completely enclosing the city of Otis into an oval.

Before the encirclement of the crescent moon, there were two regiments of cavalry waiting on one side, but this time it was all infantry.

Cavalry is not good at attacking cities and is replaced by infantry. This shows that Faustan’s military intends to do it directly.

In the morning, Locke only stuffed 2 pieces of bread in his arms, and led the cavalry squadron to advance with the camp. Xia Qian and Grace and the others were asked by businessman Henry to take care of them. Of course, the things promised Grace did not forget, Locke planned to find a way when it was their turn to attack the city on the 3rd day.

The place where Grace and Xia Qian stay now is just behind the eagle Legion, not far from the front line. It won’t be difficult to pick Grace over.

Teams of soldiers marched to the front line neatly.

Locke has participated in many wars before, but such large-scale siege wars are rare, only seen in the Raiders led by Peters at the beginning of the war.

At that time, Locke, who was only a servant, had daily tasks to transport supplies and move dead bodies.

The Faustan military still takes care of the recruits who have just joined the army and will not throw them directly on the front line as cannon fodder.

At this time, contacting war again, from a higher perspective, Locke discovered that war is actually an art.

Faustin’s army commander, like an artist, slicked each formation like a splash of ink, acting just right in the corners of the entire picture.

Locke used to only know to follow orders to fight, and suddenly fell silent and watched the movement of the rest of the troops. Locke seemed to have learned something.

The Faustan army of hundred thousand people surrounded the city of Otis in just half a morning.

In Faustin’s Great Tent, the Marquis of Mammen is discussing the siege with his old partner, the Marquis of Sandro.

“Which troop do you plan to go first?” asked the Marquis Sandro in a uniform.

The Marquis of Mammen still looked like a Little Old Man in military uniform. He looked up at the Marquis of Sandro and said, “I was tossed by Angelina. I plan to let the 3rd Corps out.”

“Oh?” The Marquis of Sandro was obviously surprised at the proposal of the Marquis of Mammon, raised his left eye, and asked strangely, “Aren’t you afraid of those nobles making trouble?”

The Marquis of Mammon looked indifferent, “Just cause trouble, anyway, the cards should be shuffled after the war.”

After hearing this, the Marquis of Sandro remained silent.

The siege at the beginning was undoubtedly the most difficult and the most casualty. What the two marquis discussed before was actually to get the 2nd Corps on top, because the 2nd Corps is strong, and there may be surprises in the siege process. And it’s just a “godson”, no matter how great the loss is, the two marquis won’t feel bad.

However, because Angelina Princess asked them some time ago to “rally” and forcibly transferred the one third force of the 2nd Corps, the Marquis of Mammon had to consider the 3rd Corps.

The overall strength of the 3rd Corps is almost the same as that of the 4th Corps of the newly-built Corps. However, because of the nobles to which it belongs, it does not listen to the announcement, and it is much weaker than the 4th Corps.

This decision of the Marquis of Mammon can be foreseen that the first private army of nobles sent to attack the city will definitely suffer heavy losses.

The siege mission was decided at the top level as early as the New Year. The Eagle Legion led by the Marquis de Mammen and the Marquis Sandro attacked the west and north gates of Otis, and the lion Legion led by Kensell Prince , The south gate and east gate are more tightly attacked and defensive.

Unlike the outside of Otis, Faustan’s army has been mobilized in an orderly manner, and the city has become a mess. It was the Shalor garrison on the city gate, seeing Faustin soldiers several times his own surrounding them, trembling in fear.

In addition, the news of Faustan’s army about to attack somehow reached the ears of ordinary residents in the city, countless robbers and looting incidents occurred, and there were even many arson in the city. Ordinary citizens who have been suppressed by death for a long time become hysterical at the end of their lives.

This is also not unrelated to the horrible remarks made by the senior Shalor. In the eyes of the Shalor civilians in Otis, Faustan soldiers are symbols of demons and wolves. They are ferocious and inhuman, and will slaughter all Shalorians. Among them, the massacre of Ellis City that happened some time ago also gave Shalorian’s fear of Faustan soldiers.
