Chapter 98 Army Movement

The war will start tomorrow. Locke was bored and wiped his sword. Although the notice had not been released yet, the atmosphere in the camp had obviously changed a lot.

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

The New Year party two days ago did not feel that Locke felt so good. Only after he went there did he realize that the nobles he attended were all big names above the Viscount. Lower nobles like Baron Cadozi and Knight Will were not invited.

Well, when Locke went there, he sat in the corner and ate. He didn't know any of the big guys around him, nor did he want to mess with him.

As for the reason, I don’t know if it’s the vulgar behavior of Locke’s behavior, and the civilian spirit in his bones are incompatible with the atmosphere of this aristocratic party.

Their Commander George also came to the party. Locke originally wanted to go up and say hello. After all, the Commander George was not bad at all, but when he came, he only showed his face, said a few words to the big guys and left.

Locke, who had just seen the only acquaintance, was very embarrassed. According to Locke's guess, it should be that the war was about to begin. Commander George, as the commander of the First Corps, must always stay in the Ministry of War to pay attention to the situation.

The facts are not much different from what Locke guessed. Not only Commander George, but also dozens of Chief and Deputy Commander of the Foster Army, did not attend the dinner.

As for the other person Locke knew, Viscount Melson, who gave him a surprise fortune, this amazing figure and easy-to-recognize big man, Locke didn't see him.

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

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

Princess Angelina's arrival attracted the attention of a large number of other nobles, and everyone was curious about this Locke who appeared here.

It was also from that day that everyone in the camp, including the newly arrived recruits, knew that Locke was about to make a fortune. Even their barons could not participate in the play party, Locke actually went.

This made Rocke a little trouble. He shot the bird out of the first place. Rocke, who has always been low-key and steady, doesn't want to be the one out of the first place.

Also, since "eating" Grace, this woman's feelings for Locke have changed a lot. She is no longer cold and always looks like a gap. Yesterday, she and Xia Xi came to take care of Locke's life.

Because the battle was about to begin, Locke began to restrain himself. He didn't want to go to the battlefield and be a soft-legged shrimp. So Grace has not touched him since that day.

This woman full of nobleness always has the urge to blaspheme.

Of course he did not forget what he promised Grace. Grace was very smart and did not mention it because she already understood Locke's personality and would do her best to say it. She believed that the man she had committed to would not disappoint him.

After wiping the long sword in his hand, it shone with a weak bright yellow light, which is a proof that there is a bright yellow ore mixed in it.

Locke liked this set of equipment more and more. He tried yesterday. The long sword in his hand could easily penetrate two centimeters of iron sheets. As for the armor, it had not deformed under the huge force of a strong man like Hans.

During the supper at the Baron's camp in the afternoon, the Baron indeed proposed the order to launch an attack tomorrow. This was the order just issued by the Ministry of War in the morning, and everyone was mentally prepared.

The combat mission of their battalion was on the third day, and they attacked the west gate of Audis City with the remaining three battalions of the Second Corps.

Perhaps some people who are not smart will be curious that the Ministry of War will give them such a very low-risk task. At the moment the task was issued, most of the squadron leaders who were eating in the tent all "swipe" and turned to look at Locke, including Baron Kaidozi and Knight Will.

Sure enough, the Baron finally added, "This seems to be the order issued by Princess Angelina to George's Corps himself."

Everyone was either envious or strangely looking at Locke. Locke has been seen too much by this kind of look in the past two days. Maybe he was a little uncomfortable at the beginning, but now he has been practicing it for a long time. He still calmly drank his own broth and ignored the eyes of others.

This temperament and calmness made Baron Kaidozi have the illusion that Locke was a master of high positions.

The one who is close to the vermilion is red, and the one who is close to the ink is black. Since Locke came back, he has been in contact with those big figures. Although he sat far away in the corner and watched them chatting, Locke also learned a lot of behaviors among the nobles invisibly. This should be what Angelina meant.

As a princess, if Locke wants to marry her in the future, he must at least have the noble temperament and get rid of the rustic spirit of a civilian body.

As for why Angelina ordered their Second Corps to do such a thing, Angelina gave it to her to protect the magician troops that were similar to them at the beginning.

The magician army led by Angelina was in the middle of the barracks. Locke and his team and the other brigades, the mission of the first three days was to guard the northwest corner of the magician army.

Everyone knows that the worst of the war was the days at the beginning, Angelina's order perfectly helped Locke and the others missed this meat grinder moment.

Princess Angelina, who was wise by her mentors and elders, was able to do such a trivial thing that indirectly gave Locke good.

In the early morning of the next day, the entire joint military camp began to move, like a giant beast crawling on the ground, lifting its head and showing its sharp teeth.

Baron Kaidozi gathered his troops early and led them to station at the designated location. Before the magician troops arrived, they needed to gain a foothold first.

The Kashgar Baron troops next to them were not so lucky. Their task was particularly arduous. It is said that they would participate in the siege in the afternoon. The first day of siege was definitely not that simple. Just looking at the guardian equipment set up on the city wall, you can tell that the city of Audis and the last strong city of Charlotte were not so easy to fight.

If the United Army camp was in the shape of a large crescent manifold, under the mobilization of Fostertan's army, soldiers kept moving toward both sides, completely surrounding the city of Audis into an oval.

Before, surrounded by crescent moon, there were two cavalrymen waiting on one side, but this time they were all infantry.

The cavalry was not good at siegeing cities, so it was seen that the Fosteran military planned to take action directly.

In the morning, Locke only stuffed two pieces of bread into his arms, and led the cavalry squadron to advance with the battalion. Xia Xi, Grace and others were asked by him to continue taking care of the merchant Henry. Of course, he did not forget what he promised Grace. Locke planned to think of a solution when it was their turn to attack the city on the third day.

Grace and Xia Xi are now at the back of the Eagle Legion, not far from the front line, so it will not be difficult to pick up Grace.

Teams of soldiers drove to the front line neatly.

Locke participated in many major wars before, but there were very few such large-scale sieges, and he had only seen them in the strategic battle led by Peters at the beginning of the war.

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

The Fosteran military is still very caring about the new recruits who have just joined the army and will not throw them directly to the front line as cannon fodder.

At this time, when you come into contact with war again, and from a higher perspective, Locke discovered that war is actually an art.

Foster's army commander, like an artist, played each formation like a brushstroke, just right in the corner of the entire picture.

Locke used to only know how to fight by orders, but suddenly calmed down and looked at the mobilization trend of the remaining troops. Locke seemed to have learned something.

The army of Fostertans, a hundred thousand people, just took half a morning to surround Audis City.

In the tent of Fostertan's central army, Marquis Mamen was discussing the siege with his old partner Marquis Sandru.

"Which unit are you going to get on first?" asked Marquis Sandru, dressed in military uniform.

Marquis Marmen was still the same as a little old man in military uniform. He looked up at Marquis Sandru and said, "After Angelina was tortured, I plan to let the Third Corps come out."

"Oh?" Marquis Sandru was obviously surprised by Marquis Mamen's proposal. He raised his left eye and asked strangely, "Are you afraid of those nobles coming to make trouble?"

Marquis Mamen looked indifferent, "Just make a fuss, anyway, it's time to reshuffle the war."

The Marquis Sandru remained silent after hearing this.

The siege battle at the beginning was undoubtedly the most difficult and the most casualties. What the two marquises discussed before was to let the Second Corps go up first, because the Second Corps is good, and the siege process may be surprising, and it is just a "godson". No matter how much the losses are, the two marquises will not feel distressed.

However, because Princess Angelina asked them to "make trouble" some time ago and forced one-third of the power of the Second Corps, Marquis Mamen had to consider the Third Corps.

The overall strength of the Third Corps is almost the same as that of the Fourth Corps of the New Corps. However, because of the nobles, it is much weaker than that of the Fourth Corps.

Marquis Marquis Mamen's decision can be foreseen that the first batch of noble private troops sent to attack the city will definitely suffer heavy losses.

The siege mission was decided among the senior management as early as the New Year. The Eagle Legion led by Marquis Marmen and Marquis Sandru attacked the west gate and the north gate of the city of Odith, and the Lions Legion, personally coached by Prince Kensel, attacked the south gate and the east gate with stricter offense and defense.

Unlike outside the city of Audis, the Forstan army was mobilized in an orderly manner, and the city was already in chaos. It was the Sharlot defender at the city gate. He was frightened to see the Forstan soldiers who were several times more than him surrounding them and advancing towards them.

Moreover, the news that Fostertan's army was about to attack had somehow reached the ears of ordinary residents in the city. Countless robbers and looting incidents occurred, and even many arsons were set in the city. Ordinary citizens who had been suppressed by death for a long time became hysterical at the last moment of their lives.
