Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

In this storm, Verin was an innocent little wave, leading his 135th Legion and living a leisurely life outside the city of Leica.

This place is located in the rear of the occupied area. If something happens, it will definitely be the front-line troops who will bear it first, and it will not be able to reach here for a while.

In early October, Elias Mercedes, the uncle of King Caledon Mercedes of the Basio Kingdom, served as the commander of the army and turned the tide to regain control of the two lost provinces.

In the next few months, several large-scale battles were fought in the northern battlefield, and countless small and medium-sized battles.

In contrast, the southern battlefield fell into a strange calm, with only small troops occasionally fighting, and both sides tacitly maintained this situation.

Even so, the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom did not dare to withdraw troops from the southern battlefield, and could only continue to arm dwarf warriors from other provinces and send them to the northern battlefield.

In mid-December of the Glorious Year 9733, at the Sixth Command, four middle-aged men sat around a wooden table, drinking tea quietly, sometimes discussing the situation on the northern battlefield, and sometimes comparing their younger generations.

"My brother wrote to tell me that in just three months, the Kingdom of Bashio sent 26 delegations to the capital, trying every means to lobby His Majesty the King, and even invited Bishop Talia of the Dawn Church to come over, wanting us to launch a wave of offensives from the southern battlefield to relieve their pressure on the northern battlefield." Alfred Silves took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

"It's not surprising that the political system of the Kingdom of Bashio has caused the war to be like this." Iorisis smiled and shook his head and said.

"Indeed, their political system directly locked up the upward channels. If the lower-level nobles want to break through, they can only pray to marry those blue-blooded nobles and integrate into their corrupt circle." Marquis Alex Simisis nodded and said.

"Otherwise, why do you think the Bashio Kingdom is known as a famous "talent exporter" in the eastern part of the Sinops subcontinent?" Asad Lightend laughed disdainfully.

Alfred stopped the topic and asked Earl Hurricane: "The miracle child in your family is not married yet."

"Not yet, I heard from his father that there seems to be a girl he likes more, named Xuemia Silves, a branch of the royal family, and he is still investigating."

"Xemia, I haven't heard of her, she shouldn't be from our branch." Alfred shook his head with some regret.

Seeing this, Iorisis didn't say anything. Weilin's marriage was decided by his parents, and he was not convenient to intervene in this matter.

Then, the four began to extend from the battlefield situation to the systems of various countries, and even involved the topic of ancient history.

Ignoring the identities of the four of them, it was like a few middle-aged men sitting together and talking to each other.

...

On January 15, 9734 of the Glorious Calendar, the 135th Legion had been stationed in Leica City for more than four months.

This war started on April 1, 9732 of the Glorious Calendar, and it has been almost two years now.

The 135th Legion led by Weilin, at most, fought a siege of Iron Tower City and an interception of Ayashikou. The rest of the time, they performed various garrison tasks to ensure the safety of the material transportation channel.

"My Lord, the new order of the 27th Corps."

Kyle lifted the curtain and entered the tent.

Upon hearing this, Weilin stood up suddenly, took the letter from Kyle's hand, and read it carefully.

More than four months of doing nothing made Weilin a little irritable, and he was eager to do something.

"Kyle, go and call Viscount Moncas and others to a meeting."

"Yes."

Half an hour later, eight viscounts came to Weilin's tent.

Without saying anything polite, Weilin read out the order given to their legion by the 27th Corps on the spot.

"Order the 135th Legion to arrive at the Black Forest Fortress in the northwest of Densibi Province before February 10, 9734 of the Glorious Calendar to block the dwarf army from the direction of Hagar Province."

"To make a long story short, this is a battle to defend the city, and it is also our first time to participate in the front-line battle. Don't let your guard down and lose your life on the battlefield."

"I obey your orders." The eight people answered in unison.

After receiving the combat mission, the 135th Legion acted quickly and spent eight hours to start marching to the Black Forest Fortress.

The Black Forest Fortress is a masterpiece of an earth magic legion under the Fifth Command. It took six hours to turn three 130-meter-high stone mountains into an above-ground fortress covering an area of ​​10 square kilometers.

There are a total of six important marching routes from Hagar Province to Densibi Province, among which the route where the Black Forest Fortress is located is the most remote of the six marchable routes.

It is not difficult to see that someone above took care of Weilin and gave him the simplest defense task.

However, he couldn't relax. If the dwarves didn't play by the rules and he neglected to take precautions, and lost the Black Forest Fortress, he would be guilty of a great sin.

"Viscount Moncas, please lead people to draw a regional planning map of this stone fortress, and make sure there are no mistakes."

"Yes, legion commander."

"Uncle Olcott, please be responsible for sending knights and scouts to explore the details around the Black Forest Fortress. At the same time, set up a sentry post 30 kilometers north of the Black Forest Fortress to closely monitor the movements of the dwarf army in Hador Province in the west."

"Yes, sir."

"Viscount Algernon, please lead your team to clear all vegetation higher than one meter within a ten-kilometer radius of the Black Forest Fortress. Do not let these plants block our army's sight."

"Yes, sir."

"Uncle Edgar, please lead people to collect logs from the Boulder River and move them to the Black Forest Fortress for storage."

"Yes, my lord."

As the number of generals around Verin decreased, the Black Forest Fortress instantly became lively.

In order to prevent the dwarves from attacking the Black Forest Fortress from underground, Verin also had people dig a moat around the Black Forest Fortress and divert water from the lake 13 kilometers to the north.

In less than ten days, the entire Black Forest Fortress was almost completely changed.

On the 20-meter-high stone wall, there was a three-bow crossbow every 30 meters, and a magic crystal cannon every 150 meters.

On the stone wall of the Black Forest Fortress facing the province of Hador, according to the order issued by Weilin, at any time, it is necessary to ensure that there are 5,000 troops on the wall, and the walls in the other three directions must not be less than 3,000.

Looking at his masterpiece, Weilin felt a little more at ease, and he did not torment his group of viscounts anymore.
