Chapter 44: Aid to Sekeboa

The rare lull lasted until March, and since its defeat in January, Bavaria has not made any further moves. Taking advantage of this gap, Naxi taught some of the mages how to perform simple array magic, which he had to teach to the other mages before the next attack of the enemy.

After all, Naxi's best skill was still a battle mage, and he hoped that someone could replace him as an indispensable part of formation magic. If you can support more formation magic, it will be very beneficial to increase your own attack power.

In addition, Naxi was also busy studying the battle mage notes that Angelo had left for him. Without the advice of his mentor, it was indeed very difficult to study on his own, and it took Naxi about a month to learn the simplest techniques of demon refining. With this as a foundation, the rest of the stuff is a lot easier.

After nearly two months of renovations, Naxi clearly felt that Probez was getting a new look. Under the guidance of craftsmen from the rear, the original walls of Probez have been significantly improved, and they are no longer the low walls that can be climbed with a little force. Looking at the city walls that were built with great difficulty in the cold wind, Naxi's mood became better and better.

In his opinion, it is better to make the enemy retreat than another fierce battle, and the last siege almost wiped out the 2nd Tarak Frontier Regiment. What's more, Bristol, who is also a diplomatic envoy, is negotiating with Bavaria in Dislafa, and Prince Harold hopes to reach an effective ceasefire agreement and a solution to the disputed territory with the enemy from the negotiating seat.

Naxi has always been unpredictable about matters at the diplomatic level, and he has never asked about them. A lot of information about the negotiations, he used other people to get a general idea of the process. Although these people were hearsay, Naxi still had a vague sense from Prince Harold's increasingly ugly face that things were not going as he thought.

In mid-March, spring is almost coming, and the cold wind has long since lost its trace. Just as Nashi was lamenting that he could no longer see the snow in the wilderness, he received a request to rush to Harold's residence for an impromptu meeting.

Naxi was a little late. After all, he was the last to be notified. In the conference room, which was about to be full, Naxi finally found a place to sit down.

"Ah, our magicians are here, so let's all come. The prince sorted out the information in his hand and said, "I have summoned you in the evening, mainly because there are some new changes on the side of Dislafa. ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but get nervous, and from the prince's somewhat heavy tone, everyone felt the seriousness of the situation.

"Bristol has come back with the latest news from Disrafa, and it's bad. Prince Harold paused and said, "You may have already arrived." The conversation completely collapsed. The enemy wants both to retake Probez and for us to unconditionally recognize the Monlia Mountains as Bavarian territory. ”

"It's so outrageous, and if you say yes, I think you'll have their hands stretched even longer, and that day they said Prague was theirs. ”

Others condemned Bavaria's greed, but Prince Harold did not want to dwell on the issue any longer, because he had more pressing issues to deal with today.

"Diodos, who is in Plevey, has a move. Harold, who had been keeping an eye on Plevy these days, had finally waited for news of the enemy's impulsiveness, "According to reliable intelligence, about four thousand infantry men have been deployed. But it was not confirmed where they were headed. ”

"More than 4,000 infantry?" Naxi was a little puzzled when he heard this, you must know that the current Probez has nearly 4,000 troops stationed in addition to the Maple Leaf Knights, if the enemy only sends more than 4,000 infantry to besiege the city, it makes no difference if he is looking for death.

This suspicion was also raised by Harold: "If the enemy has only about ten battalions of infantry to pull out. There's nothing that people can do with Probez. Diodos is not a pig, he must have had other ideas. ”

Harold stood and unfolded the folded map: "After we captured Probez, there was a noticeable salient on the map, but as the defense strengthened. They won't do anything until they find a way to do it. As for this sneaky operation, I think it is very likely that it was to follow our action in capturing Probez and sneak attack on Oloboa, which is located next to us. ”

Everyone took a look at the location of Oloboa on the map. Although it is a Bohemian territory, it is very close to Sekebois in Bavaria. If the enemy passes through Dosaik Bois and launches a surprise attack, it will be very easy to succeed. Moreover, Oloboa is close to the Bohemian rear town of MladΓ‘, and if left unchecked, it will seriously affect the supply of supplies to Probez.

Although many of you have not experienced much war, after Prince Harold's explanation, they finally realized the insidiousness of the enemy's action this time. If the sneak attack succeeds, the Maple Leaf Knights and garrison in Probez will be in a very dangerous situation.

A thorough analysis has shown the importance of aiding Sekebois, but how to rescue Sekebois, who may be attacked by surprise, has become another headache. The generals who looked at each other didn't know what His Royal Highness the prince was going to arrange, and they were also worried about whether there would be any risks in this trip.

Harold was also troubled by the arrangement, knowing that only a blow to Bavaria at this point would bring them back to the negotiating table. It is impossible for him to leave Probez, but there is no suitable candidate at the moment. The slightest mistake in rescuing Sekebois will become a bargaining chip for the enemy, so he must be cautious.

After thinking about it for a long time, Harold still said what he wanted: "I plan to send some knights and infantry to support, so this important task will be handed over to Perrault." There were really no generals available, so Harold could only let Perrault lead people, and he couldn't leave Probez, so he temporarily took over the responsibility of leading the Maple Leaf Knights.

"Is it just me?" said Perrault, hesitantly. Although he is already a knight with a lot of experience, he is not very experienced in fighting on the battlefield, and he is a little worried that he will not be able to cope with it.

"Hmm. After frowning for a moment, Prince Harold made a more risky decision: "Naxi, can you take some magicians and set off with Perrault?" He didn't know what the situation was with the magicians who had just been recruited, but if he could send Naxi, who had played an important role in the previous stage of the defensive battle, then it would be more likely to succeed in holding Sekeboa.

Faced with the sudden order, Naxi was slightly stunned and understood Harold's concern: "Your Royal Highness, the training of the magic group has basically been completed, and I think they can cope with the siege of the last intensity." ”

"That's good, that's good. Prince Harold rubbed his tired eyes and said, "In the afternoon, you two will prepare to go, the goddess of the lake will protect you! (To be continued......)
