Mage Joan

Joan, the majestic colonel on horseback, naturally thinks of his grandfather.

The two old men were about the same age, and Edmund Harrison could ride the field like a young man, but his grandfather could not afford to fall ill, like a candle in the wind...

After the comparison between the two, Joan couldn't help but admire Colonel Harrison's healthy health.

Just when Joan was thinking about it, he suddenly heard someone shouting his name. Looking back, Vasa was beckoning to himself, as if to introduce himself to Colonel Harrison who had just dismounted.

Joan restrained his nervousness and hurried over, bowing to Colonel Harrison.

"It's an honor to meet you, distinguished colonel."

Colonel Harrison was playing with the whip, and his blue-and-blue eyes looked at the thin, immature young boy in front of him with no emotion. His brows frowned slightly, revealing a disapproving attitude.

He kept silent, and Joanne didn't know what to say next. Standing there at a loss, feeling very embarrassed.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Vader, I hope you have a good time in the military camp." Colonel Harrison finally broke the silence.

Although it was only routine and polite words, Joan was relieved and hurried back to the sentence, "Thanks for the care and gratitude," and then retracted into the crowd, hiding in an unremarkable corner.

Colonel Harrison glanced at him again. He seemed to have a bad impression of his clumsy and clumsy speech. He slapped the horns and the corners of his lips appeared scornful. He turned back and said to Major Vasa: "This child looks pretty, unfortunately. Still too lacking in experience, temperament is not like a soldier, but like a student."

"Joan was originally a student. He was only thirteen years old this year. He studied at the Leiden Academy in the field of arcane and was a proud disciple of Master Robert Rawls." George Vassar introduced in due course.

"Oh? He is the "Mage with the Army" you mentioned in the report. Just to hire such a little kid, he spent a full 1,000 Duga military expenses?" Colonel Harrison lowered his face.

George Vaasa's face stiffened slightly, and then he stood upright, and his expression became very solemn.

"Mr. Colonel, I guarantee with my own reputation that Joan Vida's ability is worth our heavy hiring! At this year's hunting competition, Joan's performance is obvious to all, and he has also--"

"Okay, okay, George, you don’t have to explain it to me. Anyway, the report you submitted has been approved. My personal opinion doesn’t matter."

Colonel Harrison shook his whip, showing an impatient look.

"But I think I have an obligation to explain to you clearly. After all, you are our supreme commander, and you should give full consideration to the special role of the enlisted mage when formulating the combat plan."

"Hah! Your kid talked as if he were the supreme commander of this army. Do you want you to teach me how to do things?" Colonel Harrison gave Vasa an angry look.

Major Vasah's face changed slightly, and he quickly bowed his head and regretted: "Mr. Colonel, please forgive my offense!"

"George, you are my old man. I originally handed over this knight training camp to you. I believe you are not the kind of young man who doesn't care about anything. Just say something."

Colonel Harrison sighed softly and then said to Major Vasa:

"About the little mage you hired, frankly, I dare not expect his spell-casting ability to be worthy of that commission. As long as he doesn't get scared by jackals to pee pants, it is worth our thanks to the gods."

Joan did not deliberately overhear the conversation between Colonel Harrison and Major Vasa, but their voices were still vaguely transmitted to his ears, which made his mood extremely complicated.

I am grateful to Major Vaasa for defending himself and again, and I am deeply dissatisfied with the contempt expressed in Colonel Harrison’s words. I secretly vowed that I must prove to the arrogant Colonel Harrison with actual performance on the battlefield that I am worthy of the 1,000 gold Durga commission. .

...

At 8 o'clock on the morning of August 21st, the assembled troops set off from the Deling Valley Military Camp to formally launch a banditry campaign southward.

The regular imperial army plus mercenaries on this expedition totaled more than 500 rides. Although it is impossible to compare with the large-scale battles organized by thousands of horses and horses between the countries of the old continent, as far as the history of war in the colony of Alfheim is concerned, It was already a massive military operation.

The main fighting force of the southward troops is 300 imperial cavalry from the camp of Dring Valley. Most of them are only 18 or 9 years old. They have been in the army for only two or three years. They are all hand-trained by Major Vassar and Major Green. The level of training is impeccable, the only thing that is still insufficient is the actual combat experience.

In addition to military training, this young unit occasionally performs some actual combat tasks such as expelling beasts and sweeping goblins. However, these tasks are too simple and belong to the militia business. Sending regular troops to the army is an overkill.

The only challenging mission the Cavaliers have performed in recent years was the battle to rescue the town of Delin at the beginning of the year. In the face of the Allied Lizardmen and Goblins, they performed well and successfully repulsed the enemy and preserved it. Delin Town.

In this battle south, the Knights were sent out of their nests. Most of them had never seen live jackals in person, not to mention the experience of fighting jackals.

However, the morale of the troops was not affected as a result. The young apprentice knights were full of longing for the coming war, eager to make achievements on the battlefield, and as early as the Dindal brothers were promoted to true knights.

Along with the Cavaliers, there were also 200 Assa cavalrymen from the Algonquin Valley, led by Magni Povatan, young master of the Algonquin tribe.

The reason why the Alfheim military is willing to spend a lot of money to hire Asa Hunting to participate in this southward battle, in addition to making up for the lack of troop strength, another important factor is that the "Assa Hunting" can just make up for the Vasa Knights Shortcomings in experience and tactics.

Including Magni Bovatan, the members of Assa Hunting are generally around 25 years old, and the actual combat experience is much richer than those of the 18- and nine-year-old trainee knights, and they are more calm on the battlefield.

In addition, although these two units are cavalry, their weapons and equipment and their functions on the battlefield are different.

The imperial cavalry wears a steel helmet breastplate. The standard weapons include a lance, a kite shield and a long sword or a morning star hammer. They belong to the standard "heavy cavalry" establishment. They are responsible for fighting on the battlefield, often a round of charge The main force of the enemy is defeated.

"Assa Hunting Horse" is a group of hunters on horseback, wearing light and flexible leather armor and jungle camouflage cloak. The weapon is its iconic compound hunting bow and a short and sharp scimitar, which are typical. "Light cavalry" is good at riding, disturbing the enemy, reconnaissance, patrolling and chasing the defeated enemy.
