Chapter 915 - 473 Fire Dragon Law and Dragon Flame Great Castle
After the four counties of Alsace had fallen, the King of the Ancient Tomb immediately sent his troops deep into the Royal Capital of Alsace. Although there were many mountainous terrains before reaching the capital, where castles and towers were abundant remnants of the long-standing warfare with other countries, much of it had been dismantled during the reign of Henry VII. Still, a considerable number of defensive structures remained.
In fact, the original four counties on the border of Alsace were important frontier strongholds, but because of mismanagement and the negligence of the nobles, they were easily conquered.
However, the subsequent barriers and challenges would determine the outcome of the war.
During this time, Ivita always received various opinions from the Governors of The Three Republics. They felt that the King of the Ancient Tomb’s decisions were always problematic, but Ivita knew that was just their misjudgment.
Generally speaking, with the military talents of the King of the Ancient Tomb and the Hearthstone Witch acting as the Witch Marquis to suppress the troops, Ivita’s forces had no significant issues for the moment.
Tens of thousands of troops were quickly taking over each location.
But the resistance from Alsace was growing stronger by the day. After Jalen overcame the initial succession issues, he was gradually able to take control of the situation, coordinating the domestic legions and sending ten legions to the southern front.
Speaking of ten legions, there were only actually five full legions, amounting to over twenty-five thousand soldiers, both in weapon and profession they were somewhat better equipped than Ivita’s mixed troops.
In a direct confrontation, Ivita’s forces were definitely somewhat weaker.
