Chapter 101: Tentative Attack

Although this meeting between the nobles of the two sides, Norman's unexpected appearance made the Overwatch Alliance side seem to be the winner.

But in fact, the gap between the nobles of the two sides is very clear to each other.

Even though he was very jealous of Norman, a high-level professional, the other party still launched a fierce attack on the Overwatch Alliance the day after the meeting.

Walter didn't know if Norman's statement that he wouldn't go to war was true or not, but in any case, as a commander, the group's business still needed to be done.

Norman did not make a move, and in fact, it was not Norman's turn to make a move.

Backed by a sturdy camp. With a large army garrison, if this requires the help of high-level professionals to resist the opponent's attack, then this commander is a little too vegetable.

In this battle, although Walter's army had a certain numerical advantage, due to the relatively diverse sources of the coalition forces, the largest number of militias were the weakest, and the will to fight was also very poor, all of which undoubtedly laid hidden dangers for Walter.

In fact, Walter didn't want to use the militia if it could, because the original farmers were so unreliable. Although these militiamen, who were extremely large in number, had undergone a short period of training before being recruited to fight in the north, they had never been on the battlefield, and their actual combat effectiveness was impressive.

In contrast, although there are also a large number of recruits on the side of the Overwatch Alliance, thanks to the training operations arranged by Moore before, these recruits have undergone several real battlefield trainings, not to mention that they have become elite, but at least they will not be like the militia in Walter's hands, and they will be afraid of blood when they see it.

What's more, although the strength of the Watchman Alliance is not as good as that of the other side, the actual soldier's morale is much higher than that of the opponent.

One party's hometown has been ended, and the future is uncertain. One side guards the newly acquired territory and defends the homeland.

It is self-evident which side has a stronger desire to fight.

The battle was not fought in a big way from the beginning, and it is not surprising that the relatively inferior Moore did not rush to attack.

Walter's side was not in a hurry to launch a general attack, and in fact due to the rapid march, Walter's army was often encamped in the vicinity at first, and even a surprising number of militia troops were gathered together, which would have been quite dangerous if Mohr had a quick eye and used this part as an entry point.

It's a pity that Mohr's idea is only to block the enemy, and he doesn't know the specific situation of Walter's camp, otherwise this point will definitely be exploited.

Taking advantage of the tentative offensive, Walter began to adjust the distribution of his army.

His Excellency Walter is known as the Star of Erdo, and he mixed up the flags of various armies, so that Moll could not find the weak link, and even hit his head on a nail. This idea was accepted by all the nobles, and it was immediately implemented.

On the very day of Walter's tentative assault, the Supreme Commander of the Watch Alliance, Moore, and the Deputy Commander, Claire, called a battle meeting of all the nobles of the Watch Alliance, which was almost routine by the time they arrived in the Ferrol Valley.

"Don't think I'm talking about it." Every time Moore summoned these humans for a meeting, he was angry and didn't fight anywhere, which really fulfilled a common saying among the old people of the kingdom: goods must be thrown away, and people must die more than people.

How can the gap between these lords be so big? I don't hope that they can compare with themselves, as long as they are serious and obedient. As a result, all the paper talks are very stakes, and they arrange something for them to do, and it always feels like these guys are undercover agents sent from the opposite side, or they are all in disobedience.

Now that the reinforcements from Trois-Rivières are also in the camp, for the sake of the face of your colleagues, Mohr is not able to say anything too ugly: "I repeat again, each camp must dig more than three trenches inside and outside its own camp, each trench is at least five meters wide and two meters deep.

If, in the course of a war, the enemy rushes through even one of your camps, then I will not be merciful, and I will report it to the Earl and let him deal with you. ”

More was talking, and the nobles below looked at me one by one, and I looked at you, and they were not afraid of Moore's threat.

Just kidding, the so-called Overwatch Alliance is only a short-lived alliance of interests, and Moore is not their real lord or superior, putting on a superior face, where to scare the other nobles who are also barons.

As for the precautions that Mohr mentioned, the lords felt that it was a bit of a fuss.

The people who built the camp had already evacuated early, and now they have to dig trenches, but they have to use their own troops. In this cold weather, if you want your own army to dig trenches obediently, you also need them to be obedient.

Not every lord's army is so elite and morale-high.

In Claire's words in her previous life, what a desperate effort to fight for this money.

Moore may also know this, so he is even more angry.

Just as he was about to say something, there was a hurried sound of horses' hooves.

"Report-" The sound of horses' hooves abruptly stopped outside the big tent, and a knight pushed the door and broke in: "Report to Baron More, a force that has broken through the camp to the west!" ”

Before the knight could finish speaking, the horse's hooves sounded again. "Report!" A knight hurriedly took his horse and broke into the big tent: "The army of the western camp has fled this way!" ”

What? All the nobles in the tent stood up. They all looked at each other dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

What's going on? How can the enemy's combat effectiveness be so strong.

Even Moll and Claire, who had big hearts, were stunned when they heard the news.

"What's the situation?" Moore hurriedly asked.

But the knights who came to report only saw the situation in the camp, and did not know what was happening in the camp to the west.

But it is clear that the priority is not to understand what is happening there, but to make a decision.

"Claire, you are in command of the battalion, and I will personally lead people to support the camp in the west."

Moore made a decision on the spot, and then with a gesture of his hand, he ordered several nobles to set off with his own army.

Looking at the back of Moore leaving the big tent, Claire couldn't help but be worried, and her eyes were sharp.

What's going on, the camp garrison in the west is close to 3,000 people, and the camp is also very strong, how can Walter launch an attack and break through, this is too unscientific.

It's hard to make it happen, the soldiers in Walter's hands are what Aryan supermen can't be. If so, then what else to fight.

If Walter's army had this kind of combat effectiveness, then the battle would have been a definite defeat for the Watchman Alliance.

So, Claire's eyes fell on Norman, who was sitting in the corner.

Norman understood, stood up, and said to Claire with a smile.

"Do you need me to take a look?"

"I'm sorry for you." Claire nodded. "Captain Norman."
