The Black Knight from the Blue Planet

Chapter 758 Hope comes from the West

Hadi took about 500 royal guards and about 4,000 logistics troops and rushed to the eastern border of France in about 14 days.

It is also the famous Bar Lev Fortress in France.

The eastern border of France is full of towering mountains and is very steep. Only the Bar Lev Gorge is a small plain that can be passed.

Bar Lev was built in the middle of this small plain and built a split wall to completely block the passages on the left and right.

Levi Bar Lev was standing on the wall, looking at the three huge square formations of enemies one kilometer ahead.

The adjutant hurried over and said with his head down: "Lord, we barely repaired the wall that was damaged by the stone throwing, but it can only withstand three or four more stone throwing attacks. If we encounter an attack like yesterday, the eastern wall will definitely collapse."

Levi nodded gently, his face was dark, and an unhealthy black air was condensing, because he had not had a good sleep for nearly 20 days, and his daily rest time was less than four hours.

Under this kind of mental and physical double pressure, his body is actually quite fragile.

If this continues, it is normal to die suddenly on the wall.

"Did Boris say when the reinforcements will arrive?" Levi asked routinely.

In this case, he has asked no less than 30 times in these 20 days.

But the answer he got every time was very disappointing.

This time was no exception.

The adjutant shook his head.

Levi lowered his eyelids with some disappointment.

He knew very well that not only himself, but also the soldiers were under pressure to the limit.

From the beginning of the war to now, the casualties of his soldiers have exceeded 40%, and are about to approach 50%.

Under normal circumstances, if the casualty ratio exceeds 20%, morale will drop sharply.

If it exceeds 30%, a large number of deserters will appear.

Now the casualties of the Bar Lev Fortress are close to 50%, and the soldiers are still holding on, because everyone knows that behind them are their relatives. If they don't hold on, their relatives will suffer.

Levi's body shook slightly. When he closed his eyes just now, he almost fell asleep.

Fortunately, the adjutant was quick and supported him.

He was so sleepy, but he still didn't dare to go to sleep.

He gently pushed the adjutant's hand away and said, "How much dried meat is left in the rations?"

"Less than 100 kilograms."

"Take it all out and mix it in the wheat paste. Let the soldiers have a good meal and boost morale."

"But if that happens, there will be no meat to eat later..."

"If the reinforcements don't come, we probably won't be able to hold on for two days." Levi smiled bitterly: "Before I die, at least I have to be a full ghost."

"Yes..."

The adjutant was about to leave when he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

The two looked back and found that it was a young man wearing scout cavalry leather armor, running up with a happy face.

The young man ran directly to Levi, quickly knelt on one knee, and hurriedly said loudly: "Lord, here we come, reinforcements are coming!"

The voice was so loud that many soldiers around heard it.

Everyone's eyes shifted over, and the lifeless eyes of those soldiers burst into a gleam of expectation.

Levi did the same. He took two steps forward and pressed the scout's shoulder with an ecstatic expression: "What did you say? Where did the reinforcements come from? How many people are there?"

"It's Boris's reinforcements, more than 500 people, and more than 4,000 logistics troops."

"Only more than 500 regular troops?"

Levi's expression darkened again, and then he chuckled: "Okay, there is finally support. More than 4,000 logistics troops can also bring enough military supplies and weapons. At least our Queen still remembers us."

The scout said loudly: "It's not an ordinary regular army, it's the Royal Guards. They are flying the blue angel flag!"

"Royal Guards?"

Levi's expression brightened again.

The guards who can fly the blue angel flag are the old members of the Jeanna family, and their predecessors are members of the Silver Wing Knights.

The nobles of France are very clear that the Silver Wing Knights have been split into three parts.

One part stayed in the Jeanna family, and the other part followed Hardy to Louisian County.

The rest followed the queen and became a special royal guard.

The royal guard has three units, and only the one that evolved from the Silver Wing Knights is qualified to carry the blue angel flag.

"Is it the Silver Wing Knights?" Levi's expression was obviously much more relaxed: "Great, great."

Outside the fortress is a small plain, which is very suitable for the heavy cavalry corps to perform.

Although there are only 500 cavalry, as long as they charge, the offensive they bring is stronger than that of tens of thousands of infantry.

In this way, their winning rate is much higher, at least 50-50.

At this time, the scout cavalry whispered: "And the person leading this cavalry is the lord of Hukalo City, His Excellency Hardy."

Levi's eyes are slowly widening.

His mind is a little redundant.

Then he subconsciously asked: "How could it be Hardy, isn't he in Inrodo?"

Everyone knows that Hardy led the coalition of lords from all over France to kill and capture cities in Inrodo.

Shiploads of spices and gems were brought back, and the Barlev family also got the first batch of spoils.

It can be said that they made a lot of money!

But it was precisely because a large number of territorial coalition forces went to Inrodo that the Netherlands found an opportunity.

"I definitely did not recognize him wrongly. He is Lord Hardy." The scout cavalry said loudly: "When Her Majesty the Queen ascended the throne, you took us to Boris and pointed him out to us. Such a handsome and charming person will never be recognized wrongly."

"Really?"

"Absolutely true." The scout cavalry said firmly: "If it is false, I will dig out my eyes."

At this time, they saw a column of smoke rising from the back.

"Are they here?" Levi was a little nervous. He immediately said to the adjutant: "Go find a wet towel quickly. I want to wipe my face and tidy up my appearance. Lord Hardy came all the way to rescue us. We can't be rude."

The adjutant ran away immediately.

Not long after, he came with a wet towel.

Levi wiped his face clean, then adjusted his clothes, and then walked down the wall and came to the entrance behind the fortress to wait.

Soon, the silver heavy cavalry rolled in, with a black warhorse in the front, and a young man in black sitting on it.

When he got closer, Levi's expression became extremely happy: "It's really Lord Hardy, we are saved, we are saved."

He murmured to himself.

And the soldiers around him hugged each other excitedly.

The news spread to every corner of the fortress with cheers.

The originally lifeless fortress suddenly came to life.

Every soldier's eyes were full of hope. (End of this chapter)
