Chapter 366: Chrysanthemum War II (7)

The imperial army advanced without hesitation.
Laura immediately led her troops to Pavia after their successful ambush.
Pavia was surrounded by a decently-built rampart; however, the issue was the fact that they only had a small number of troops to defend it. It was probably around 400.
On the other hand, we had 6,000 troops, eleven of which were mages. Let me be direct. The enemy had no chance of victory.
Furthermore, our commander, Laura, was openly recognized for her expertise in siege warfare. Heidelberg, which had been purely built as a fortress city, and Parisiorum, the greatest city of Frankia, were all crushed under Laura’s feet. Pavia was basically like an afternoon snack to her.
Laura gave her command.
