Chapter 43 Holy Sword Legion II
(Thanks to the falsehood in the mirror, this book has been replaced with a new introduction, I don’t know how it looks! Chapter 2 is completed, please recommend it!)
Although this camp is not big, it looks very gorgeous on the outside and stands out among the military camps.
The recruiter introduced that this was a military account arranged by the Legion Commander specifically for receiving important figures. As a small recruiter, he was not qualified to assign a mage position and could only bring Donald here.
When he entered the military tent, Donald did not see the commander of the legion here, only two senior officers and a mage who were responsible for recruiting special professions.
However, I thought it was expected that the general military camps should not be independent. If there are too obvious signs, the commander will not easily leave the protection of his subordinates. This is for security reasons. Otherwise, the situation where the commander is assassinated will probably greatly affect the momentum of the entire army. Moreover, as the commander of the army who is about to face a war, he will inevitably be busy in his affairs and will not have time to receive all the conscripts one by one.
Of course, these three people in the tent would not make the mistake of the recruiter outside, and would be despised by those who came to the recruitment. After all, those who can reach this place will not be ordinary people.
"Mage Donald, the Holy Sword Legion welcomes you. This is the Mage Perry, a military mage in our legion. He will arrange all the procedures for you!"
The officer introduced it and gave up the main position to the military mage behind him.
"Hello, Master Perry, I am Donald Meliner from the North County Masters Club. This is my badge and letter of introduction!"
This mage named Perry is responsible for verifying the qualifications of a spell casting profession who came to register. He is just a high-level black iron. Seeing Donald's performance and then seeing the name of the North County No. 1 wizard, Messel, I immediately became much more enthusiastic.
He handed over the letter of introduction issued by his teacher Messel. After a brief verification, Donald's smooth record was on the official list of the recruitment order and was at the forefront.
According to the Black Iron Mage, who belongs to the Holy Sword Legion, in addition to Donald, there are three free mages who come to participate in the battle. They are all wizards below bronze, and the highest is only the Black Iron High Level. However, several professionals such as swordsmen and assassins have broken through the Black Iron Level and reached the level of bronze. As for the strong men at the level of the Silver Level, they have generally obtained their own power and status for a long time, so they naturally will not compete with their descendants for such opportunities. A few silver strong men who wander outside but do not belong to any force camp are mostly of the kind of personality that does not like power struggles, and they will not appear among the candidates.
Therefore, all those professions who came to participate in the battle were below bronze, but even if there were silver-level warriors, Donald would not care about this.
No matter how high the level and personal strength of melee professionals are, their combat effectiveness is reflected in small-scale battles. If they do not reach the golden level, their large-scale lethality on the battlefield is far less than that of spellcasters of the same level or even low-level level. Those people cannot compete with themselves for their military achievements.
These professions alone cannot take away much credit. Donald is worried about other aristocratic forces and the Ansel family as landlords.
Because some nobles also have mages and other professions they offer, the quality of those mages is higher than that of those low-level free mages. There are basically no ones lower than the Black Iron High Level. Most of them are mages at the bronze level, and there are two mages at the bronze level. Once these mages cooperate with the army of the nobles, they will exert great power, which is the most powerful force in this beast-slaughtering army.
So Donald knew that if he wanted to achieve the greatest military achievements, he could not follow the crowd. Instead, he had to find another way and make enough achievements to leave others speechless.
It is said that in addition to the powerful swordsman, Marquis Ansel also has the presence of a silver mage, but outsiders have never seen it. Maybe in this biggest orc war in decades, the powerful silver mage will appear.
However, according to Donald's previous calculations, the Ansel family, which has become increasingly powerful in recent years, may not invest too much strength to compete with other nobles for military merit. After all, their family has too many halos, and adding a few more will not have any major impact. It's just that it just arouses the royal family's concerns.
The great power of the Lord has always been the most feared by those in power. When you have the ability to control and balance the people in power, then you must be careful, because this kind of opposition cannot be changed by any relationship. Unless one party gives up his status and power.
Donald, who learned about the general situation of the participants in the war, was told that there would be a reception banquet to be held in the evening. After the participants were all nobles and powerful professionals, two soldiers were escorted to several separate tents on the right side of the military camp to rest.
After Donald left, one of the two officers in charge of reception and record immediately left the tent and rode a horse toward the fortress not far away.
Even if it is just a black iron summoner, it is worthy of attention than a bronze mage. You should know that summoners can summon over level, although it costs a little. Moreover, the summoned creatures of summoners are different from those of ordinary mages. As long as they are not dead, they can engage in a long-term continuous battle, which is equivalent to countless spell attacks. This is shorter than the spell effect. Low-level mages who will consume their mana after casting a few spells will undoubtedly be much stronger.
Such talents appear this time, they must report the situation to the above.
Soon, in the office of the fortress military headquarters, the highest commander of the human side, the third commander of the Holy Sword Legion, a young general had more information on his hands.
The contents are exactly what Donald just reported, and there are descriptions from other insiders.
"A noble mage?"
After reading this information, the young general said to several officers under his command:
"What do you think?"
One of the officers immediately analyzed:
"Since this mage can be valued by the first mage in the North County and accepted as an apprentice. After only one month as a mage apprentice, he was promoted to a formal mage. In less than three months, he was promoted to the middle section of the Black Iron again. From this point of view, both strength and talent should be good, and he can arrange some important tasks for him on the battlefield!"
The young general nodded:
"The orcs are powerful, and the number is dozens of times that of ours. Fortunately, the kingdom issued a conscript order, which brought a large number of people, but it is not as good as the number of orcs. Our only advantage is that we can stick with the fortress."
Then he turned around and asked another young officer who was writing at the desk:
"What's going on outside the fortress?"
The young officer replied without raising his head: "Most of the mountain people in the mountainous areas on both sides of the fortress have fled to the territory. Now that the place has been cleared and many traps have been set up, but this cannot hinder the barbaric orcs for a long time. If these guys are allowed to sneak into the territory from the mountainous areas on both sides of the fortress, then the civilians in the territory will suffer a great loss!"
The young general didn't care about his subordinates' attitude and nodded and said:
"My mother will come tomorrow. She is in charge with the silver strength. Even if the orc 10,000-person squadron attacks, it can guarantee that the fortress will not be lost. The remaining 300 swordsmen in the third battalion of our Holy Sword Legion and 3,000 soldiers in the auxiliary legion can completely control the scene. Although the strength of those conscripts is uneven, they have a few strong players. It should be a good plan to assassinate the enemy's strongest ones!"
An old officer showed a hint of joy on his face when he heard this.
"This is really good news. If Your Highness can come to take charge, our fortress is safe, but how to defeat these tens of thousands of orcs is still a problem."
"Don't be too happy too early. My mother also wanted to make the civilians in the territory and the soldiers of our third battalion not to lose too much, so she would withdraw from her. Due to the attitude of the royal family, she would not take action until the critical moment, so we are the only ones we can count on!"
The last officer who did not speak out also expressed his opinion and said:
"Sir, don't forget those noble private soldiers. Although their discipline and strength cannot be compared with us, the number of people is 5,000 or 6,000. If it is not good, it is still possible to restrain the orcs non-main forces! As long as we can eliminate some orcs' main forces, the other party will feel that our fortress is a difficult bone to chew, and maybe they will choose to retreat!"
"It's just arranged this for the time being. I hope that no unexpected situation will happen. If those bronze powerful men use it well, it may bring some surprises!"
After saying that, the young general looked out the window with deep eyes, and his thoughts seemed to have fallen into another world.
