The Norma Line is the northernmost point of the Moradian Merchant Federation, and it is a terrain with difficult mountains and mountains to cross. Only some relatively gentle mountain roads between the mountains can accommodate people to come and go.

Hundreds of years ago, Molai's sphere of influence was much larger than it is now, and there was still a large area of land to the north. It was only under the continuous attack of the emerging Thrace that Molai was defeated and retreated, and finally could only rely on the precipitous mountain defense. They built a series of cities and cottages between these lofty mountains and mountains, and built a series of strong city walls, and finally created the most famous defensive position in the entire Western University 6, the Norma Line.

Since the construction of the Norma Line, Thrace's southward movement has been halted. Over the years, they had tried to attack the Norma Line twice, and both times they had failed, and although the losses were not large, they gave the Federalists confidence in this line. Some people even shouted things like "The Norma Line is the boundary between the two countries that God has drawn for the two countries", and it has actually won the support of many people.

At this moment, there are forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses gathered on the Norma defense line, of which the infantry is naturally the main - fighting between the mountains and mountains, the cavalry is almost useless, and it is enough to leave some precautions against accidents.

On the Thracian position to the north of the mountain, about 20,000 men were gathered.

Although the Thracian army was only half of the Molai army, in the battle, the Molai side could not take even the slightest advantage. The Morian army was divided into two parts, one part was the regular army of the country, which came from the dispatch of local lords, and the other part was the mercenary army, which came from the adventurers. After these two armies, the former was well-trained, disciplined, and good at positional warfare, while the latter, although undisciplined, had excellent personal force and was suitable for small-scale harassment and sabotage. But both the former and the latter, against the Thracian army, fell behind.

The Thracian army of 20,000 is a real elite, if you calculate it according to the game level, almost even the baggage soldiers are above 2O level, the soldiers are generally over 3O level, and the elite troops are even about 4O level. In contrast, in the regular army of the Molai side, in addition to the general's personal guards, even the level of the elite troops is only a little more than 3O, and it only reaches the level of ordinary soldiers.

Adventurers are similar, don't look at them every day, they have experienced many adventures, but in terms of improving their strength, most people's adventures are not more efficient than training every day. According to the statistics of the traversers who have been fighting in the Norma Defense Line for a long time, the adventurers in the Molai army are generally between 3o and 4o, except for a few senior adventurers above 4o, most of them are not as high as the elite troops in Thrace on the other side.

The difference in rank between the two sides is so large that it is said that the Molai army should suffer a great loss when fighting head-on. But in fact, the two sides have fought many times these days, and the Molai army has only lost a cottage and a section of the city wall, which can only be regarded as a skin injury compared to the entire Norma defense line, which can be solved by a small band-aid.

The reason why we were able to have such results naturally relied on geographical advantages.

The so-called "time is not as good as location", the Thracian army has a high rank, which can be regarded as a time of day, but the Molai army guards the pass and occupies the geographical advantage. Unless the Thracians were ruthless, greatly increasing their troops, and attacking at all costs, the battle would have to be fought.

It's like in history, Thracians and Molai faced off and fought on the Norma Line for more than a decade, but ultimately failed to find a chance to break through it.

Many people feel that this time is no exception.

"I think the Federation is stable this time. In the barracks at the top of the mountain, the traverser Nate Huck said triumphantly, "If you do this, the battle of Pollock City is over, since the Imperial army can't attack in front and back, how can it still take the Norma Line?"

Dressed in heavy thick armor, armed with a hammer and heavy crossbow, and a hybrid heavy warhorse, he was a typical hoplite knight. Joining the Volunteers as an adventurer, he fought at the forefront of the Thracian invasion, and over the course of many days he had been reeling from two gold stars and a dozen silver stars on his armor - one for every Thracian soldier he killed, and one for an officer.

With two officers and more than a dozen soldiers, this record is quite eye-catching even in the relatively high-armed adventurer volunteers. Everywhere he went, when the Molai soldiers saw the stars on his armor, they would be in awe, and they would make way for him, and some even took the initiative to salute him.

Panda looked at his smug energy and couldn't help but smile: "You have a point, as long as we hold the line firmly, the Thracians will have nothing to do." ”

Judging from the situation these days, since the withdrawal of Count Pollock, there has been no trace of the Thracian assassins in other noble territories, and it is estimated that the Lord of Shadows will not act rashly again if he suffers a loss this time.

Since there were no assassins, of course those nobles would not have withdrawn. If they don't withdraw their troops, the Norma line will be solid, and there will be no need to worry at all.

Today was his fourth day in the Norma Line, and because of his service in Pollock City, Panda was easily trusted and incorporated into the Volunteer Army. He volunteered to go to the front and go to the place where the fighting was most intense, and he was sent to the front.

After arriving at the front line, Panda now has a lot of acquaintances here, and several traversers are active here.

Pratt, one of the Travelers, arrived with a few of his apprentices, and they set up workshops in the barracks a little further back from the front to maintain and craft the armor. In the name of Pret, the panda was finally able to take out his exquisite and sturdy full-body armor and put it on, and he immediately looked majestic, like the poor and depressed bald bear before.

He has also participated in fights in the past few days, because to emphasize his identity as a boxer, he has always been empty-handed. It was not convenient to be empty-handed on the battlefield, but after all, with his eyesight and martial arts, he reaped a result and broke the neck of a junior Thracian officer.

The Thracian officer, who was of great strength and courage, led more than a dozen soldiers to rush along the dead corners under the city wall that could not be shot by bows and arrows, and with the soldiers fighting on the wall, he rushed up the wall at once, and almost took a section of the wall.

At that time, the panda rushed over, knocked down several people, and dragged him down, and the two of them rolled and tore on the towering high wall between the mountains, and finally the panda restrained the opponent with Baresi Jiu-Jitsu, and broke the officer's neck, and the officer's subordinates were also killed and injured in the counterattack of the Mo Lai army, and only a few escaped by luck.

The scale of this battle is not large, but it makes the panda feel deeply - on the real battlefield, good kung fu is not as good as good comrades, if it weren't for the Molai soldiers on their side who were desperate to rush and kill, and withstood the offensive of the Thracian army, he was afraid that he would be hacked to death by the Thracian elite soldiers who swarmed up, and all his efforts would be in vain.

If the majestic mountains, strong fortresses and towering walls are the geographical advantages, then the reliable comrades-in-arms are the people. The time is not as good as the location, the location is not as good as the people, with these reliable teammates, the Norma defense line is the real iron wall!
