Chapter 450: Quietly Arrived
In the extremely fast march, the three of Sir Trede couldn't help but be a little worried, it was 120,000 Norweed warriors, although he didn't want to admit it, but the soldiers of the Western Road Holy War Army were indeed incomparable to those barbarian warriors, if they wanted to defeat them, they needed at least double the number.
Of course, they were just ordinary soldiers of the Western Road Jihadist Army, and they had not communicated with the rest of the mainland for a long time, resulting in their vision being limited to taking one acre and three points of land by themselves.
Not to mention that William is well-equipped and well-trained, and the elite of a hundred battles who crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood after more than ten years of construction, even the ordinary infantry of the Astra Kingdom is also a rare strong army in the world.
Not to mention the Guardian of the Holy Grail, who is even more capable of fighting alone than the infantry of Dengrenburg.
Although the Denlenburg infantry fought in formation, William could think that he had no opponent, but when it came to melee, they were really not as good as the Guardians of the Holy Grail.
The Guardian of the Holy Grail is an existence that can fight one-on-one with the Norwid barbarian warriors and still achieve victory, even if it is an ordinary soldier of the Astra Kingdom, there are many chances of victory.
The performance of the Western Jihadist Army was so unbearable that it did not dare to attack the Norwids without doubling the number of troops, but if the soldiers were replaced by the Eastern Jihadist Army, the situation would be different.
After all, although the Norweed people are physically strong, if you look at it by the standards of the Lorde people, they are still a rabble after all.
Although Loald is similar to the Germanic people of Western Europe in William's previous life, they are both barbarians in the past, and they are not so attached to the battle array.
But they still understand the importance of the battle array, whether it is in the war to overthrow the Goodells Empire, or in the later wars, the strength and importance of the battle array is shown again and again.
Therefore, in the Holy Sect world, although bravery and good fighting are the most central criteria for evaluating a soldier, discipline has gradually occupied a large proportion.
Especially in a military power like the Kingdom of Astra, they put more emphasis on the discipline and obedience of their soldiers.
Only those countries that are weaker have taken the courage and skill of their soldiers to heart, and completely abandoned the discipline of their soldiers.
The three of them were completely unaware of the fighting power of William's army, and on the way to the march, although they were surprised by the discipline of the Denlenburg army, they expressed some concern about their silence, after all, such behavior was a sign of "cowardice" in the eyes of many people.
"Sir Tryde, I don't think these reinforcements are reliable! Do you want us to ask for other reinforcements? These soldiers are indeed very disciplined, but they look too cowardly! ”
"Yes, it's hard to believe that they have the courage to stand up to the fierce Norwids!"
The two knights beside Sir Trede said.
Sir Trede couldn't help frowning slightly when he looked at these well-equipped, disciplined, but so "cowardly" troops, and then said helplessly: "But we have no choice, let's not say whether we can find the middle lane jihadist army, and even if we do, they may not necessarily come back to support us!" ”
"Even if they come to our aid, will they be able to arrive before the Holy War is wiped out? Therefore, the army led by this Earl William is our last hope! ”
He looked worriedly in the direction of departure, and muttered: "I hope the Holy War Army can hold out until we arrive, and I hope these reinforcements can be useful!" ”
In this way, the speed of the march of the Denlenburg army had reached a limit, and although they still did not run, they were already walking at the fastest speed.
In this way, the tenacious army of Denlenburg marched a full fifty kilometers in one day.
If this is converted into the unit of measurement of the Celestial Empire, it is a hundred miles a day, and it is definitely the elite of the elite!
The three Sir Tryde were also amazed at the speed and resilience of the Denlenburg army.
Although they were initially a little dissatisfied with the fact that the Denlenburg army did not trot, it was okay to do so at such a pace.
What really shocked them was that the pace of the march of the Denlenburg army could be maintained for a whole day.
You know, even if you don't trot, such a fast walk is quite physically demanding, but the army of Denglenburg was able to hold on for a day, except for eating and resting, there was not a single pause.
Not only William's direct army, but also the army of his vassals also followed, although it was slightly difficult, but the competitiveness of William's direct army still made them persevere.
At night, the moonlight was obscured by the dark clouds of winter, and it was a little dark, but because the army in Denlenburg was still well nourished, night blindness had been brought under control to an extremely rare level.
After the campfires were lit, supper, and equipment was maintained, the soldiers slept in their tents, and the sentries kept vigil around the fence and the horses, and it was very safe.
The army of Dülenburg, which had marched for a day, was very tired, after all, it was a hundred miles a day, and tomorrow they had to march a long way, so a good rest was necessary.
Early the next morning, the army of Denglenburg assembled again, and the army of the vassals also moved quickly, and assembled early, and the troops marched forward at ten o'clock in the morning.
William sat on his horse and talked to Ser Trude: "Very well, that means we can probably reach the location of the Western Road Holy War this evening, right?" ”
"Yes, my lord, tonight, we will probably be able to reach the camp we built!"
At this time, the camp of the Western Road Jihadist Army had already been riddled with holes, and after a whole day of fighting yesterday, they had already heard two waves of replacement attacks by the Norvids.
In just one day yesterday, the losses of the Western Road Jihadist Army reached more than 15,000 people, and at this time they only had about 50,000 fighters left.
If the Norvids launch another onslaught, it is estimated that the jihadist army will face the end of collapse.
Don't look at the heavy casualties of the Jihadist Army on the Western Road, the losses of the Norwids are not small, after all, they are facing the fortifications of the Jihadist Army.
"Ten are to surround it, five to attack it, to fight it twice, the enemy can divide it, if it is less, it can be defended, and if it is not, it can be avoided."
The words of the ancestor are not unreasonable, Sun Wuzi has become a master of tactics, and the name of the military saint is not for nothing, which contains incomparable war wisdom.
Siege, siege and siege battles, losses have always been great, in just one day, the Norweed paid 20,000 casualties, which shows the cruelty of the war and the fierceness of the battle.
Early the next morning, the Norvids rearranged their formation around the Jihadist Army on the Western Road.
The fence of the Western Road Jihadist Army had already been completely damaged in a day's fighting, and the overnight repair had almost no effect, anyway, these broken fences were basically useless in today's battle. 2k reading web
