Chapter 3: The Views of the Nordic Kingdom
He didn't pay attention to it at all, he knew that the real key enemy was coming back, but the Swadia Kingdom didn't have enough information about who Ragnar had sent over, so he couldn't know.
Seeing that King Ragnar did not speak, Peters continued to ask, "Then let me ask again, do you know the army under your own command?" ”
King Ragnar was not easy to answer Peters's question, if he asked about his own army, he must know the quality of his army, knew their strengths and weaknesses, but if he asked about the army of his vassals, he did not know the level of his vassals at all. After all, from the time he gathered his army to the present, he hadn't properly checked the army of his vassals at all.
"Knowing yourself and your enemies is the key to winning a battle!" Peters sighed.
"I was negligent." Ragnar thought he had mastered the big picture, but what Peters had just said seemed inconsequential, but when you think about it, this is something to be basically mastered in the course of the war.
King Ragnar suddenly remembered that his line of attack was already known to Haraus, but he could only guess that Haraus would send a strong army to defend the castle, and as for who led the army, Ragnar was negligent.
"Be careful, my king." Peters warned King Ragnar. "You've been a bit arrogant lately, not only have you not sent troops with the Kingdom of Vegia, but you haven't done enough pre-war preparations, it's ......" Peters said without any further acceptance. He knew Ragnar would know what he was going to say next.
"I see." Ragnar was also a man of understanding, he knew what Peters would say next, and if he wasn't a king, then Peters would have scolded himself.
While we were talking, the army of the Nord Kingdom had reached the vicinity of Fort Repole.
King Ragnar announced that he would set up camp and begin construction of siege towers and other siege engines.
Standing on the city wall, the "Meteorite Knight" Edgarth looked at the army of the Nord Kingdom that came to him, and in the center was a crow banner, which Edgarth knew was the army of King Ragnar.
Edgarth pointed to the flag and said to the people beside him, "You see, this is King Ragnar's army, his army is very disciplined, it is a strong force. ”
The three lords beside him didn't need Edgarth to point at, they also knew that their focus was on King Ragnar's troops, after all, as long as the core troops of King Ragnar were dealt a heavy blow, then it would affect the morale of other troops, which was the best way to break the army of the Nord Kingdom, for Ragnar's army, they naturally hoped that the more they didn't fight, the better, but it was very unfortunate, as the king, Ragnar would definitely train his army to be extremely elite, not only for foreign wars, It is also to prevent some dissenting vassals in the country.
"That's true, what good can you do?" Count Berlands asked.
They had already arrived at the castle and installed the will of King Harlaus, whose knight Edgarth became the supreme commander of the castle.
"King Ragnar will be willing to put his best troops at the forefront. According to the intelligence, he wanted to take the castle quickly. So, in order to motivate his vassals, he will definitely release his most elite troops as vanguards, and we must definitely make it impossible for Ragnar's troops to advance half a minute. "Edgars's idea is great, but it's very difficult to actually do it.
After all, this is the king's troops, and their combat effectiveness is not comparable to ordinary people.
"So how did it happen?" Count Craggs asked.
"You see, they are building siege towers, and King Ragnar will definitely let his most elite troops show off, and with such a powerful siege machine, he will definitely let his troops in and send his troops to the city wall with such sharp siege equipment. So ......" Edgarth is not finished.
Craggs went on to talk about it.
"So, we're going to attack this siege tower with all our might, this siege tower is made of wood, and if we just make this siege tower burn, then we can inflict heavy losses on Ragnar's army."
"Yes, that's it. Not only that, but we also have to put the most elite army at the forefront of resistance to Ragnar, and if Ragnar's troops are frustrated, it will affect the morale of his vassals' troops, and at this time, we will have hope of holding Fort Riplet. "It was as if Edgars saw himself holding out until the moment of victory.
Seeing Edgarth's excited appearance, Count Craggs shook his head in his heart, things are not always done so simply. +
Saltonjarr looked at the road ahead, he had already passed the castle of Jerburg, and in no moment, he would reach the castle of Repolet.
I hope King Ragnar doesn't blame me for being late.
Saltonyar said in his heart that he led a force of 50 men, which seemed insignificant for this great battle, but in the face of the call of the king of Ragnar, even if he had a small number of troops, he had to advance.
"Lord, are you worried about King Ragnar's wrath?" Said his adjutant Falk.
"Yes, I'm late." Saltonyar did not shy away from it at all, he was a gentle man who was kind to his men. "King Ragnar has departed, and they have gone first to Fort Repole, and I must hurry over now, so that perhaps I will come in time, and His Majesty may forgive me."
"King Ragnar's order is to take Fort Repalet before sunset, and we can get there a little bit now, don't worry." Falk began to comfort Saltonjarre at this time.
The two men rode in front of them as they talked, and the soldiers who followed behind watched their lord gossip, and they also whispered about the war below.
As Nords, they naturally hope for victory in the Nord Kingdom, so they all view this war from a positive point of view.
"With the Kingdom of Virgia by the side, our two countries combined, this Svadia will definitely not be able to defeat us."
A bearded soldier spoke to his companions, and his statement was quickly agreed by everyone.
In fact, it was not only ordinary soldiers who were talking about it, but also nobles like Salton who were talking about this war.
