Chapter 227: Reinforcements from Winter Town
A letter from Commander Maddox Hawk asking for help soon appeared in front of David.
David looked at the letter asking for help, it didn't contain much content, and it only used very little content to describe the current dire situation of Snowfield Castle.
At present, there are more than 200 full-armed infantry left in Snow Castle, and these infantry are all wounded.
There were still more than eighty of the 100 strong archers who had been sent to support, but the cost of bows and arrows was huge, and there were not many left.
The hundred knights of the Iron Tree Knights have also lost more than thirty people, and there are less than sixty of them who still have combat effectiveness.
At the beginning, the reinforcements sent by Iron Tree Fort to Fort Snow Plains were not too big on the surface, but at this time, everyone was in a bad state, almost everyone was injured, and the physical and mental consumption was even greater, and no one knew when the soldiers would completely collapse.
As an important fortress specially built by Irontree Fort on the northern plains, Snowfield Fort itself was garrisoned by a hundred fully armed elite infantry, thirty knights, and twenty strong archers, but after the arrival of reinforcements and the official war with the orcs, it was already mixed up.
In addition to the elites, the 1,000 auxiliaries recruited from Irontree Fort had also gone to the battlefield, and the losses were even more severe, with nearly 300 killed.
Weapons have also been distributed to local farmers in Snowfield Castle, as well as farmers and craftsmen who had previously been recruited from surrounding villages and towns, and women and children have also joined in the logistics and support work.
In order to resist the invasion of the orcs, Snowborne Castle has used all the power at its disposal, but now they are almost unable to hold on.
"My lord, Snowfield Castle is desperate for Baron Glamorgan's support."
The knight in front of him is Maddox-Hawk's personal guard, and Maddox can only hand over this kind of thing to the person he trusts the most, and he can't rest assured that it will be handed over to others.
"Rest assured, as the lord of the Kingdom of Tiran, I will not sit idly by and watch the territory of the Kingdom be taken over by a group of filthy orcs."
David saw what he wanted to see most in the letter, and the current commander of Snowfield, Maddox, said that Baron David Gramorgan would relinquish command once he arrived at Snowfield.
Once this command is in David's hands, no one else can take it back.
With this letter of help, he could reasonably and legally occupy Snowfield Castle and turn the entire western half of the Northern Plains into the territory of Wintertown.
Subsequently, you can apply to upgrade your territory from Winterfall to Winterfell, and Goldfinger will be upgraded again.
"What's going to change this time?"
With a wave of his hand, he motioned for the knight in front of him to go down and rest for the time being, and he wanted to discuss the details of the military movement in Winter Town with his men.
In general, as a messenger for help, it is also tasked with providing battlefield intelligence, and this kind of meeting does not exclude it.
However, the situation in Wintertown is special, and the guard also knows that Maddox Hawke asked for help from Wintertown, in fact, he sacrificed his own future to save the civilians and soldiers of Snowfield Castle.
Even if Snowborne Castle successfully resists the Orc attack, and the civilians and soldiers in Snowborne Castle escape, the fate of Maddox Hawke himself will not be much better.
On the surface, the Iron Tree Castle side will not do anything to him, but he will be secretly excluded and marginalized until he dies.
But what then? Defender Lemur feels that Maddox Hawke has made the right choice, and at least he has hope of surviving now.
As for the future...... If you can't survive, you won't have a future.
In any case, he had successfully delivered the letter for help to Baron Glamorgan, and judging by the reaction of the Lord of Wintertown, he should come to the rescue of Snowfield Castle.
Maddox has already sent Snowfield Fort to the mouth of the Lord of Wintertown, and it is impossible for a lord to let go of such an opportunity!
He looked left and right, and when he came, he was so worried that he ignored the situation around him.
It was only then that he noticed that Winter Town was such a beautiful and magical city, including the Fort Glamorgan, which he was in, and it was the first time he had seen such a bright and clean castle......
Gareth Stanton, Arcie, Kraussa and others rushed to David's office as soon as possible, and they wanted to discuss more than just supporting and occupying Snowy Castle.
David needed to determine what the current state of all available military forces in Winter Town was.
"Fifty Winter Knights, although there are twenty recruits among them, with the advantage of equipment, and the way of bringing the old with the new, can ensure that the combat effectiveness of the Knights is maintained above a certain level."
In addition, Gareth Stanton and Freud have recently been officially recognized by the Light, and both he and Freud have become true paladins.
The two who have been baptized by the Holy Light have more powerful combat power, and can bring out the maximum combat power of the Blizzard Power Armor, which has been perfected and optimized, and has been finalized.
"The Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment still uses 'traditional armor', but with the advantage of crystal ore weapons, they have no problem dealing with ordinary orcs."
The members of the Winter Knights use a variety of training methods that go beyond the limit, which are inherited from the Knights of Tiran.
This has extremely high requirements for the quality of the trained knights, and at the same time, it must be supplemented by various special medicinal materials to ensure that the body will not be wasted.
However, in Winter Town, the Winter Knights, who are protected by holy light, no longer need the aid of medicine and other magic and alchemy, and can practice beyond the limit regardless of any risk.
This is also an important reason why the Winter Knights can quickly form combat effectiveness, and Liadline and Sally Whitemane have played a huge role in the establishment of the Knights.
With Floyd and Gareth Stanton becoming true paladins, the Winter Knights can further improve their combat effectiveness in the future.
The Spartan infantry regiment actually used the same training method, but the Spartans started lower than the group of the Winter Knights, who were originally recruited from Tiran and were already superior in strength.
The soldiers who were added later were mainly craftsmen from Azeroth, and these guys were not ordinary people.
The latest additions to the new recruits, in the end, are still mainly Azeroths, which is a notch higher than the Spartans.
Based on this situation, the Winter Knights were able to use power armor freely.
Otherwise, if the physical fitness is not up to standard, the power armor will not only not have a buff effect, but will even pose a threat to the user's life.
Although the operating system from Tony Stark's white prostitution has made the operation of the warframe much easier, at least there will be no terrible situation of twisting his waist one hundred and eighty degrees when he turns around.
However, ordinary soldiers do not have the assistance of super artificial intelligence like Jarvis, and if their own reaction ability is not enough, they will not be able to keep up with the speed after strengthening, and they will naturally not be able to exert their real combat power.
Therefore, the Spartan heavy infantry regiment currently uses traditional armor, and will only replace it with power armor when their own quality is improved.
"The Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment is fully deployed this time."
Of the fifty members of the Winter Knights, David will bring thirty this time, and it is up to Gareth Stanton to decide whether to bring a few recruits or not at all.
There are also ten more to be stationed at the Frost Sentry, which means that there will only be ten Winter Knights soldiers left in Winter Town.
It looks like it's empty, but it's not.
Most of the Transformers have now come to Winter Town, and even if Arcie follows her out to fight orcs, there are still a large number of Autobots stationed in Winter Town, such as Digging Tigers, Sky Fire, Heat Break, and Drift.
The formation of the security brigade also ensures that there is a "human" force in Winter Town, ensuring that there will be no problems within the territory.
"James Norrington and Floyd continued to stay in the barracks and train new recruits...... Have the soldiers of Spartan II arrived?"
The second group of Spartan warriors who had arrived through Helen had arrived in Winter Town, and according to Gareth, they were learning the common language of Brennia and doing the most basic physical training.
After assigning the tasks of several military leaders, Gareth went to mobilize the soldiers and make a move
before the preparations. David called Weatherby, Eva, and Elizabeth and told them that he was going to Snowy Castle, and that it was up to them to take care of the housekeepers.
In fact, Snowfield Fort is not far away, and if there is an emergency, David can fly back by transforming into a Tomcat fighter and giving him a hand of fuel.
So after he explained a few sentences very casually, he went to find a suitable candidate to play with him.
He first found the Detective, a rare Transformer among the Autobots who can be turned into a military vehicle, with great firepower and defense, and this kind of combat is best suited for him to his advantage.
In addition, Medivan and Gianna both said that they wanted to go to the front line to see, these orcs were very curious about this world, and Sylvanas even brought a lawbreaker and a ranger guard.
With the addition of Renault Mograini and Sally Whitemane, Winter Town has taken this expedition quite seriously.
This situation will occur, in the final analysis, it is due to the information obtained from the dark elf ruins, Gianna and Medivan are eager to see what kind of existence stands behind the orcs in this world.
So, when Lemur received the news that the reinforcements from the town of Winter had been reassembled and were about to depart, he saw such a scene:
Two Kun fighters stopped there, and dozens of heavily armored knights dressed in heavy armor that covered their whole bodies lined up and burrowed into the belly of the giant bird.
A hundred heavily armed hoplites, also under command, boarded the huge wagons, but Le Mur did not see the cattle pulling the carts.
Baron Glamorgan, the lord of Wintertown, dressed in a gorgeous purple and gold armor with golden glow on his shoulders, was talking to several elves.
Lemur never imagined that there were elves here in Winter Town, and these elves were now going to support Snowy Castle.
This scene is a bit too magical for Lemore, who has fought with elves I don't know how many times.
