Chapter 388

Now, when the nobles of the Ximan Kingdom began to fight to the death, the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom also showed more tenacity than usual, which made Nord feel that he had always wronged them. These soldiers of the Ximan kingdom were not a group of timid cowards. At least at this time, they were very tenacious.

The soldiers of the Ximan kingdom may be a group of lions, but they are led by a group of sheep, which makes the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom die slowly. You know, the northern army of the Eresin empire was famous in the whole continent, and the northern territory of the Eresin Empire refers to the approximate range of the Ximan kingdom.

Therefore, there is only one truth, that is, the nobles of the Ximan Kingdom who led them did not give full play to the full strength of these soldiers of the Ximan kingdom. Without the leadership of the governor of the Northern Territory, the soldiers in the northern territory of the Empire were invincible. However, after the change of the Ximan Kingdom, they became vulnerable.

Just like now, Nord's troops have been on the wall for a long time, but they still failed to capture the wall as they wanted when they occupied a certain opportunity, but made the situation more anxious. Even with heavy casualties, these Ximan soldiers still did not retreat.

Nord saw that the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom on the city wall were very tenacious. No wonder the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom and the Duchy of Bethel had not fallen behind in the battle for so many years. It must be the reason why these soldiers of the Ximan kingdom were very tenacious in the siege, because they had no way back, Behind the wall are their relatives.

Even if these soldiers of Ximan kingdom are like beating chicken blood, they still can not make up for the gap in combat effectiveness. They can't occupy any advantage in the face of Nord's forces, and their courage can't make up for the huge gap between strength. If the soldiers of the Ximan kingdom were elite soldiers who had experienced the battlefield, Nord would really spend a lot of effort.

Nord is very happy now, because he did not delay at all. Soon after the founding of the country, he launched a battle with the kingdom of seaman. If he waited for a year or two, Nord might fill the mistakes of the Principality of Bethel and need to compete with the kingdom of seaman to win.

At that time, it is impossible for Nord to win so easily. Although it is not very easy to win now, and the casualties of the troops are not large, Nord found that the soldiers began to feel depressed and tired.

Nord knew that this was due to the fierce resistance of the soldiers of the Ximan kingdom. People's hearts were full of flesh. Nord shaped good values for the soldiers under his command. Therefore, Nord's troops had good practices, but now they began to feel tired. They were tired of killing and heart tired.

The sworn resistance of the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom makes these soldiers think they are invading their homes and committing a crime. Perhaps this is the difference between the Nord soldiers and the soldiers of the Duchy of Bethel. The Duchy of Bethel has no sense of guilt about their looting. They are all at ease.

However, when Nord's soldiers did not loot, they began to feel guilty. In fact, Nord's first reaction was not to blame them, but to be proud of them and himself, because in this cruel era, it is very difficult to have such a soldier with good quality. Most soldiers are the same as those in the Principality of Bethel, You don't treat human life as a person at all.

Nord is very honored to have these soldiers, because their character is valuable. Nord did not train them in vain. They are all good. Therefore, Nord has begun to do some psychological work for those soldiers to reassure them that Nord will not let them hurt innocent civilians.

Moreover, they will fight against the kingdom of seaman in order to build a great country. Besides helping their ancestors revenge, Nord is to build a strong family so that all civilians will not be bullied by the nobility. This is Nord's ideal for those soldiers born from civilians.

Only soldiers with lofty ideals can have strong combat effectiveness. Although they know that the ideas of these soldiers are very simple and may be just to repay kindness, they can go through fire and water for Nord, and Nord has lived up to these simple soldiers.

Now many nobles in Nord kingdom are soldiers under his command. Nord basically links the noble title to the military rank. For example, those members of the knights, at least as knights, can quickly enter the Baron title after many wars.

The first batch of hunters who joined the team before and the six who are still alive are all barons of the kingdom. They are the highest nobles except Gustav and Lehman. Many soldiers under Nord are knights, and there are a large number. The middle-level officers of the army are knights.

Nord didn't mean to owe these soldiers at all. Basically, according to the strength of the system, as long as he survived several wars, he can be successfully promoted to the fourth level arms, and then he can be selected to become a knight of the kingdom.

Now Nord is very anxious to expand the Knights. As long as he can reach level 4, Nord will promote Tami to knight. However, there are very few level 4 soldiers under Nord, and most of them are long-range soldiers, so there is no possibility of promoting the knights at all.

Nord estimated that after the war with the Ximan Kingdom, there will be a lot of fourth-order soldiers in the army. At that time, Nord may have an organized knight regiment. At that time, the swardia knights who attack in groups will definitely be the enemy's nightmare, especially in the plains. The knights who charge on a large scale are the absolute kings of the cold weapon age.

With a dream of the knights in mind, Nord looked at the battle on the city wall. Although he failed to win the city wall, the casualties of Nord's melee troops were not great. The battle on the city wall lasted for most of the day, and finally could not be divided. Then the tired two sides withdrew from the battlefield with a very tacit understanding, because if it continued, They may not be able to hold on.

Looking at the soldiers slowly retreating from the city wall, Nord sighed in his heart. It seems that he is still going to fight a long war. Nord has failed to attack the city for the first time in so many battles. Previously, with sharp long-range shooters or cunning dirty tactics, Nord has always been able to gain a great advantage in attacking the city.

This time, under the strong resistance of the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom, Nord tasted the taste of losing the siege for the first time, but for the first time in his life, Nord is no exception. When he is familiar with his own tactics and army characteristics and the enemy, Nord can only rely on the real strength of his army to defeat the enemy.

This also makes Nord understand a truth. No matter how powerful the equipment advantage is or how clever the tactics are, only elite soldiers are the basis of everything. Otherwise, all this is empty talk. It's like a castle in the air. There is no way to implement it at all, so it's the most realistic to have some elite soldiers.
