Cress IV's rapid march north completely disrupted the coalition's plan. After hearing the news that Cress IV was personally on the march, many nobles fled with their people overnight, exacerbating the decline in morale of the coalition forces. The relationship between the two commanders A new round of disputes broke out over how to deal with this situation, making the coalition's chaos even worse.

Old Tibbs believed that Cecilia had already reacted, and there was no chance of attacking Cassian while taking advantage of the situation. The small Boda Castle was simply not enough for a defensive counterattack. If he went out of the city to fight, he would have to return to Claes IV. In the best field battle, no matter how you look at it, the chance of victory is too slim, and you strongly urge to retreat quickly before the Serbian army comes.The Marquis of Latina firmly opposed it. He believed that withdrawing from Boda would only further aggravate the coalition's fear of the Cecilia. If they just heard that Claes IV was coming, they would frighten the [-]-strong army into retreating without a fight. Then we can no longer expect to have enough morale to face Kress IV in other places in the future. It is better to fight with our backs and take advantage of the large number of people. At least the coalition forces are more familiar with the geographical situation here than they have yet to come. The Serbian army needs to be familiar with it.

The two people each had their own reasons and could not give up. It was not until the Cecilia finally arrived at the city of Boda that they set up camp and sent people to send a letter of war to the city. Then they reluctantly reached an agreement to fight the decisive battle with the Cecilia. Opinion.

It was a unanimous opinion, but it was more because Old Tibbs was originally worried about his reputation. Leaving his allies and running away would have a bad impact. He could only try to persuade Marquis Latina to agree to run away together, but he failed to convince him. Cecilia The people also rushed to the front, and they couldn't run away anymore, so they could only agree to go out of the city to fight with displeasure.

Considering that the army had just arrived and was a little exhausted, Clay IV asked to set the date of the decisive battle three days later, and the two coalition commanders agreed, which made Flynn feel incredible.If you don't take advantage of the fact that the Cecilia people have not yet gained a firm foothold to attack decisively to gain some advantageous opportunities and leave enough time for the opponent to rest, is it because you are afraid that your disadvantage is not big enough?

However, this opinion was severely rebuked by Baron Halga.

"The other party is a king. Even if he is our enemy, he must abide by the etiquette of fighting among nobles. Otherwise, do you want to be ridiculed by people all over the world?"

Flynn was stunned when he saw Baron Halga, who was blushing and thick-necked with anger.What time has it been? Instead of trying every possible means to kill the enemy or thinking about aristocratic etiquette, these guys must have been collectively possessed by a fool named Song Xianggong thousands of years ago.

No matter how much he complained about whether there was something wrong with these guys' minds, the allied forces of the royal family and the principality really just watched the Cecilia people slowly and undefendedly set up camp in front of them, without any nobles standing up to say that it was OK. It means taking the opportunity to sneak attack on the enemy and win victory in one fell swoop.

Well, Flynn can only admit that it is too difficult for him to understand the thinking of this world. The lives of soldiers, victory or defeat in wars, and the danger of the country are not as important as the reputation in the aristocratic circle. There is really nothing to say.

When the Cecilia people slowly set up camp and rested, the day of the decisive battle arrived.

In the morning, the Cecilia army began to leave the camp one after another, and began to set up formations on the hillside about five miles away from Boda Castle. The coalition forces also began to leave the city, setting up formations not far outside the city wall.

According to subsequent statistics, the Serbian army had 3000 troops, including 3000 cavalry, 4500 archers, 7000 infantry, and almost the same number of mercenaries.As for the coalition forces, because more nobles have left without saying goodbye with their men in the past few days, the number has dropped to 6000, mainly 900 cavalry, [-] archers, and [-] infantry.

Although it seems that Estilia still has a certain numerical advantage, due to the constant defeats over the decades and the killing of people one after another, Estilia's well-trained cavalry basically lost [-]. However, they are not as good as the Cecilia, and the infantry with the greatest numerical advantage are basically farmers who have not been trained very well and were temporarily recruited by various means to play the role of cannon fodder. In contrast, although the Cecilia army There are also a large number of militia cannon fodder, and at least they have the ability to equip them with a lot of armor and protective gear. The cannon fodder in Estilia are basically armed with dung forks.

The Serbian army quickly used about an hour to form a formation and divided it into about fifteen flag teams. The commander of each team should be a Cecilia noble.The Egyptian army was only divided into ten flag teams, but it took more than two hours, and it was still a bit chaotic. At least from this point, the gap between the two sides could be clearly compared.

On the city wall behind the Egyptian army, the nobles leisurely took their servants to watch the rare scene of tens of thousands of people fighting. This is much more exciting than watching a stage play performed by dwarfs at a banquet, no matter who wins in the end. Whoever loses, these audience members will have a lot more bragging rights to others in the future.

Flynn also spent a lot of effort to get a corner where he could barely see the battlefield, and then he found a guy covered in gorgeous armor, surrounded by a large group of nobles, riding a horse. On a small slope, he pointed in the direction of the battlefield without hesitation.According to the discussions among the people around him, that was probably the man from the sky known as Clays IV himself, as Estilia said.

According to the results of two full days of discussion between Old Tibes and the Marquis of Latina, the Estilians placed the archers in front of the formation, with the infantry behind and the cavalry deployed on both wings.The plan was to use long archers to consume the enemy's infantry first, and then wait for the enemy to launch a charge. The infantry would go up to fight, relying on their numerical superiority to consume the enemy's physical strength. Finally, the cavalry would launch the final blow to completely establish victory.

It sounds like there is nothing wrong with it. The only remaining question is whether the coalition forces can act as planned and achieve what they want.

The servants quietly came over to report on the progress of the previously arranged work. The west gate of the castle had been opened. Once something bad happened on the frontal battlefield, they could take Flynn directly and leave through the west gate to avoid being blamed.As the heir to the Bain family, if Flynn falls into the hands of the Cecilia, he can't expect to breathe the free air outside again without spending a lot of money. After all, until now, in the cell of Clays IV, There are still many guys who have been imprisoned for many years who cannot afford the high ransom and have to fend for themselves. Flynn does not want to sit in jail for a long time.

Flynn was not worried about being blamed for this approach, which would obviously shake the morale of the army, because the retinues of other noble families in the city had already blocked several city gates, and many people had already started to drag their families and families away in advance. , In comparison, someone like Flynn who is willing to stay on the top of the city and watch the battle is already considered very kind.

After making sure that the retreat was properly arranged, Flynn felt at ease and could continue to enjoy the upcoming battle between the two armies.Medieval White Elf Story
