"Finally...... Is it finally here? Lorraine looked at the bridge in the distance with tears in her eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After a tiring march, the Seventh Army finally reached the Near Eastern Bridge near Transylvania, which was once a bustling trade route, with dozens of villages scattered around the area, which was both a place for the collection and taxation of goods for the Near Eastern Army, as well as a secret intelligence point for the guerrillas.

But now, there are only ruins that have been ravaged by flames, and there are no people.

There is no way to do this, because the main force of the Norman invasion army did not keep up, the mobile force simply implemented the three-light policy nearby, directly erasing the vast majority of scattered resistance, and even the innocent guerrillas were wiped out by the 'allies', and the commander on the opposite side must be a monster.

The Seventh Legion arrived here not without a price, although there were small fights on the road and the elimination of a few Norman squads of less than 100 men, but this time on the long run, more than half of the soldiers could not stay in tents because they were damaged/lost/eaten (huh?). up.

There are also a third of the soldiers, the weapons are not well maintained, the muskets are blocked by the wind and sand, and they can only be used as sticks, and no one pays attention to the rust on the weapons of the hand-to-hand combat brigade, which will inevitably break within ten knives, and maybe the swirling metal fragments can still have a lethal effect, if the user himself is not killed.

The position of the army was on a small hill five kilometers from the Near East Bridge, with the town of Bridge in front of it, and if you crossed the bridge from there, you could reach the heart of Transvania, but it seemed that the situation in the town was not good.

According to the Near East Army, Bridge Town is not even a large town, there are only 500 residents, most of them live on the service industry, although the town is not enough, but all kinds of facilities are very complete, the outermost also built a circle of strong walls, more than 30 feet high, all of them are magically shaped stone walls, in addition to the outside of the construction of a trench, which is full of sharp wooden stakes, which can effectively deal with surprise attacks, and there are many low-level alarm spells as early warnings.

Now, of course...... Looking at the black smoke over Bridge Town, and the cavalry circling around the town, you can tell that there is an enemy besieging it...... Forget it, it should be said that it is harassing the residents of the town.

"Hmph, just the light cavalry wants to take down the town I am stationing, you are killing yourself!"

"Shameless St. Orlando dog, come out and eat Daddy's xx!"

"You've got a kind of come in!"

"Come out, I respect you as a man!"

Ah, what a boring insulting attack, the Norman advance troops are all mobile troops, as I have said before, and the chance of completing an operation such as a fortification is almost zero, and the other side has to be oppressed with words.

It's a pity that the leader of Bridge Town will not be intimidated by the other party, because he is the former commander of the Transvanian garrison and the current sheriff of Bridge Town - the lone general Durant!

This middle-aged strong man who was originally full of personality charm, his current health is not very good, his face is haggard, his body exudes a foul smell, a musket in one hand, a machete in the other, plus a prosthetic leg made of metal, and the appearance of a pirate captain who is alive and well, and he is not good at talking, it is likely that the pressure is too much.

Speaking of which, General Durant (well, sheriff) is very dissatisfied with the current war situation, but unfortunately he was seriously injured in the previous raid, and was relegated to eat here by the crown prince in a fit of anger, which is uncomfortable enough, who would have thought that when he heard about the failure of the northern campaign, the former general who had a sharp sense of smell hurriedly found someone to build the fortifications of Bridge Town.

Of course, the sheriff's actions were ridiculed by everyone, and the town of Bridge was very far away from the Norman troops, how could anyone come to the door?

Durant finally completed some of the defenses, and then the Norman cavalry of the Heavenly Evil really killed them, and in less than a month, only Bridge Town was left in the area near the Near East Bridge.

Offensive and defensive warfare, sabotage warfare, special warfare...... How many days and nights of fighting did Durant and his boys and Norman cavalry go through when there were not enough soldiers, and when there were not enough soldiers, they would draw from the refugees, and if they didn't have enough supplies, they would rush out and send them to death...... Well, it's the breakout to Transvania.

Now the turnaround has finally arrived, when the tattered flag of the Seventh Regiment appears on the hill, everyone near Bridge Town sees it - it is the flag belonging to St. Orlando!

"Reinforcements! Reinforcements have arrived! ”

"My God, reinforcements are coming!"

Even the Norman cavalry became panicked, they did get information that St. Orlandos had organized a large army in the central region of Korsalan, but they did not expect them to come so quickly and in such numbers.

"Damn, it's come to this, retreat, go back to the legion!" The cavalry leader ordered loudly, and soon all the Norman cavalry ran away.

And Lorraine also nodded to the officers beside him, and the seventh army began to move forward, and the overwhelming soldiers slowly approached Bridge Town, and the huge advantage in strength made the defenders very happy, except for the former general Durant.

The sharp-eyed old general was not confused by the numbers, he was very surprised to find that the reinforcements on the opposite side, from officers to petty soldiers, did not look like they were strictly trained at all, not to mention their combat effectiveness, why did most of the soldiers still have weapons still hanging on their backpacks?

And I didn't see the shadow of the regular army uniform at all, tattered strips of cloth can be seen everywhere, and the one who walks in the front is simply the **** upper body, hand-to-hand combat soldiers with wooden sticks, how does it look like a slave soldier in the Black Continent?

That night, the tired half-dead Seventh Army remained on the outskirts of Bridge Town, and the staggering size frightened everyone nearby, ...... Well, there are only Normans nearby, so every hour you can see Norman scouts lingering nearby, and from time to time the enemy launches a fatigue offensive (beating gongs and drums to prevent you from sleeping), but unfortunately most of them are ordinary peasant soldiers, who lack the heart to a certain extent, and don't care about the Normans' plans at all.

Speaking of which, the Normans didn't even see it, but they knew that they were making a noise, and when they found that they didn't react, they really had an impulse and wanted to attack the camp with a thousand horses, and the consequence was that they were blown to ashes by a fire blast ball in the hands of Irene, who was floating in the sky, which was gratifying.

"That's the reinforcements you brought? More than 20,000 people, but less than 2,000 people have received full training? ”

"Yes, there are still many mercenary squads used in the army as siege troops, speaking of which, I am almost poor to death, when will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be able to reimburse this part of the money?"

"I still want His Highness to reimburse me for my food...... Not to mention this, the combat effectiveness of this Seventh Legion is too poor, most of them are similar to medieval slave soldiers, you dare to take them to the battlefield, Brother Lorraine, you really have a big heart. ”

In the face of Durant's ridicule, Lorraine shrugged helplessly, "Who made me unlucky to receive a request for help from my immediate boss?" I'd like to come back later, but unfortunately Josephine is still in Transvania, so it's impossible to leave her girlfriend behind, right? ”

"I didn't see that you are still very single-minded, for your girlfriend to go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, yes, this is very boyfriend power."

"Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense, what's going on now?"

"What else, the Norman cavalry has blocked the vicinity, and Transvania has become an island again, but this time the enemy's main force is far more than the strength of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and they will definitely bring empty boats in the next battle, as for me here, you see the small bridge town, there are actually more than 5,000 refugees crowded here, and the troops that can be used are only 600 people, brother, I am very hard."

"Don't worry, let's plan like this, little Carl, come and talk to this uncle."

So, one night, General Durant was heard shouting there, "This is not magic!" The soldiers began to gather materials to build as simple first-generation magical armor as possible.

Three days later, the overwhelmed town of Bridge finally reached its limit, and General Durant announced that he would join the Seventh Legion, and the large force of almost 30,000 men would move together and leave for Transvania.
