In this era, a battle of 20,000 or 30,000 people on both sides can be regarded as a major war of considerable scale, and the war of this scale between the two medium-sized countries of the White Eagle Country and the Grizzly Bear Country is only once in two or three years, and among the hundreds of years of grievances surrounding these fortresses on their borders, a battle of this scale is almost once in four to five years. This year is also the year of great war between the two sides - around the five fortresses, a new round of battles has entered the preparatory stage.

The Frontier Legion of the White Eagle Nation had stopped going on vacation, and the various logistics warehouses were full of supplies - it would take the country more than three years to collect enough food and weapons to replenish it, which was ridiculous for Zhou Zhongmou compared to the Alchemy Period of the Demon Guide. He remembered that at that time, the industrial, military organization, and logistical capabilities of the two sides were comparable to those of the First World War on Earth, and the logistics of supplying the troops of these two countries together with more than two divisions were simply a small matter. Moreover, the knights of the White Eagle King's capital also went to the border, and half of the White Eagle Knights' troops have been assembled at the border. The Grizzly Kingdom on the other side is similar, and at the same time as the border troops are gathered, the Bear Force hoplite regiment of the royal capital is also on the front line, and the skirmishes and attacks on the supply lines between the two sides around the battle line are happening every day.

The Red Wolf Regiment has also completed the assembly, and the mercenaries of the three teams have completed the preparation of their weapons and brought their own supplies to the battle line assigned to them - the later supplies will be supplied by the Kingdom military, and the mercenary group does not need to pay any more money for this. On the way to the battle line, the mercenary group unconsciously lost some people, some broke the contract, preferred to pay a fine - did not want to go to the front, and some simply slipped away with their own money - the mercenary group is not a state organization. In addition to the influence of money and credibility on such people. There is no coercive means to deal with this situation at this time. That's it. The number of the Red Wolf Regiment that came to the war zone has now dropped from about 350 people at the peak to 310 people - even the few archers who had fought with Zhou Zhongmou in the past have also broken their contracts and become free mercenaries, giving up the relatively stable income of the Red Wolf Regiment. As for Zhou Zhongmou himself, he was quite happy to wait for the big battle, anyway, he thought it was quite interesting, and the big sword in his hand should have become an abnormal weapon after being repaired - in his opinion, in addition to being able to kill the monsters of the netherworld, it should also become one of the indestructible weapons in this world.

During this time, Zhou Zhongmou spent money to ask the blacksmith to help make a hooded chain mail again, and this time the length of the chain mail was finally able to cover his thighs above the knee. Paired with his own armor gauntlets made of steel and boots, a lightweight armor was complete. Now Zhou Zhongmou is wearing a cotton underwear, a woolen jacket and pants, a chain mail, leather boots inlaid with steel sheets, and finally a black cloak outside, which has both defense and warmth in this autumn season. The two-handed sword "Twilight" still hung on his waist, and Zhou Zhongmou's crotch was still the same horse - some people persuaded him to spend some money to exchange it for a war horse, but Zhou Zhongmou refused. "I'm used to riding this old fellow, and besides, I don't ride it to assault. Basically, I'm still a foot knight, hahahaha. ”

When he came to the station, Zhou Zhongmou was the one with the least pressure. As a mercenary group, they don't have extra auxiliaries, so they basically have to build the camp themselves. Zhou Zhongmou knocked the nails of his tent a few times, then pulled the rope to pull the tent up, and then took off the military bed and a folding chair from the movable table from the cart, which was considered complete. Then the guy wandered around the camp, helping out every now and then - he was fine anyway. In fact, the people up and down the Red Wolf Regiment basically already know the temperament of this man who calls himself Sred Gemir - first of all, this is a powerful two-handed sword knight, and secondly, this guy has a rather rough personality, which is an easy personality to get along with, so now the people in the group are also quite enthusiastic about Zhou Zhongmou, and most of them have a good relationship with him- There are quite a few people who want to learn some combat skills from Zhou Zhongmou, and this is also the daily training to see that this Sred Gemir can evolve a series of combat skills no matter what weapon he uses to exercise, so they all know that this person's martial arts are not trivial. If the mercenaries who came to ask for advice happened to meet Zhou Zhongmou when he was free and in a good mood, this guy never paid and was willing to guide those mercenaries to practice martial arts - the key is that this guy was in a good mood most of the time, so he was even more popular. In the regiment, Zhou Zhongmou's status is vaguely only below the regiment commander, and the two deputy regiment commanders know very well that they are not Zhou Zhongmou's opponents in terms of combat effectiveness alone, but this man has no intention of gaining power at all, so the relationship between these people and Zhou Zhongmou is good.

Zhou Zhongmou is also the one who has the right to listen to information in the regiment commander's tent, and now he is there watching the regiment commander and the deputy regiment commander and Lin and other captains study the map and troop allocation here, the enemy's troop allocation is not detailed, but it can be confirmed that the number on the opposite side should be about the same as here - the battle line where the Red Wolf Regiment is located is the right flank, and the total strength is about four thousand, relying on the fortress of Tor Fort against the army of about five thousand grizzly bears on the opposite side relying on Thorburg. Because it is a mercenary group, the Red Wolf Regiment is relatively independent, they did not gain the right to settle in Torburg, and obtained a camp in the outermost place, and about ten kilometers away from them is the camp of a small army in the Grizzly Kingdom, if there is a battle, it is likely that the opposite side will be their opponent.

The battle of the army does not give much freedom to mercenary groups like the Red Wolves, and they can only stay in the camp when they are not given orders, at most they will release some scouts to scout the enemy in front of them - of course, the other side is also the same, so since the camp has been entrenched, skirmishes have been going on.

This is Zhou Zhongmou's world, he can't be considered an outstanding scout, but he has horses. He always went out with the scouts, as the backbone of the battle. About 10 to 15 cavalrymen went out at a time, and basically they did not disperse to conduct large-scale reconnaissance, but adopted the method of reconnaissance in which everyone acted together. If he encountered the opponent's scouts, Zhou Zhongmou would initiate a battle, and as an infantry infantryman, he would usually dismount and engage in foot combat after the encounter. In such a battle, Zhou Zhongmou was invincible, and the two-handed big sword "Twilight" constantly cut the blood-colored arc, slashing the enemies who dared to attack one by one, and it didn't take long for the scouts on the opposite side to stop fighting. But by this time, Zhou Zhongmou had almost killed more than thirty enemies, and his name had already appeared on the desks of his more senior commanders.

The Red Wolf Regiment arrived in the war zone on October 11 of this era, and the main forces of both sides, at least the main forces of the White Eagle Kingdom, arrived on October 20, and the Grizzly Kingdom on the opposite side was also about this time. Neither side thought of playing any surprise attack, and that was because there were five fortresses that had been built quite a long time ago, and with the efforts of both sides, huge fortifications had been built and the borders of the two sides had been obscured. There has never been a time in history when a kingdom has controlled five fortresses at the same time, and in the case of the White Eagle Kingdom, even in the most critical time, they all controlled one fortress, and now the White Eagle Kingdom has a certain advantage, controlling three fortresses - this battle is just like in history, the disadvantaged side is trying to regain the advantage and recapture at least one fortress. As a result, the Grizzly Kingdom has gathered more troops than the White Eagle Kingdom (to be continued......)
