Albrecht's Chronicles

* * *

The next morning, the soldiers were ready to embark. After you pack your weapons, check your supplies, and in the morning, the soldiers begin to enter the city.

Citizens sprayed petals on the second or third floors. No need for children, adults or seniors, the soldiers came out from the side of the road early in the morning and cheered.

The soldiers have always looked up. I heard Amas has 100,000 troops, so I'm not worried about him. Maybe it's just for now.

Upon arriving at the wharf, you see an endless number of ships plowing through the harbor. It ran really, really far from the docks on the Buzzer River in Lloyd Beck.

I see ships waiting behind me. Once the supplies are loaded and people are on board and on their way, the next boat comes in.

Albrecht sees a boat near him. You can see Hestein on the boat. With a look in his eyes, he looks lightly stubborn.

He had already arrived in Lucretia a few days ago and rested well and now appears to be departing along Philip.

Hestein was the closest thing the Crusaders ever had to a child. Unless the Pope recognized the right to occupy the territory, Philip treated him with an attitude of 'follow him or not.’

Given the modern sense of the Earth, it was possible for this to happen within the military, but it was happening before our eyes.

Even the lords didn't know what they were thinking. I've never had a proper conversation with a man named Balthazar.

Philipp did his best to tie the crusaders together, but his essence seemed like fragile glass.

Wind from the Northwest Wind swept Albrecht's blonde hair. Now that I've left the continent where I was born, I'm close to going to another continent.

Albrecht turns his horse and heads for the Knights. For two days or three days, I would take off my alternate weapons and let them into the city and give them a vacation instead of a vacation.

The ghost that died after eating was good, and the members wanted to enjoy this wonderful city a little bit.

Diego continued to work on supplies, but many of the knights were on vacation and were spending a lot of time with their families because of Albrecht's consideration.

Albrecht, Randolph and Hermann alternated to take care of the Knights stationed outside the city.

Albrecht occasionally drank himself to death when he encountered one of his own in the city. I thought training was training, orders were orders, but usually I was just a soldier.

Boduin is more timid by his group, and nothing has come near Albrecht since the last incident. He doesn't give the soldiers any kind of vacation.

A man named Balthazar was always surrounded by lords and was talking about something, but I heard he was thinking about whether to follow Philip or follow me.

Albrecht stops laughing when he hears that sound. I didn't want to belittle the people who were looking for my life, but I felt like rats in an honest way.

A week later, two weeks later, I can feel the wind stop me. Albrecht seemed to be swaying with the wind as well.

Three weeks later, ships returned from the first transport. It was early September.

“When can I leave? ”

Albrecht asks in a room at the Contarini Manor, and Giovanni looks worried.

In the room were Albrecht, Boduine, Balthazar and a few other conspirators.

“Even if you replace the crew, it will take at least three days to load up supplies or supplies for sailing. If we get enough, it'll take us a week. ”

As time passed, the direction of the wind could not be fixed. We had to leave as soon as possible, but it was the world that didn't go our way, and the war was especially severe.

Giovanni looks at Albrecht and says carefully.

“Knight Captain, why don't you split up and go?" We should start with the ships carrying the supplies and start with you, Master. ”

Albrecht was the strongest in the Crusade. For some reason, in this age, knights were still the flowers of war.

You arrive at Salamis as soon as you have the largest number of knights, and you ask yourself, "Why don't you increase your power?"

Albrecht, who was thinking of the bear, asks again.

“Do you know where Amas' army is now? ”

Giovanni still said with a worried face. He may be a great merchant, but war is not an expert.

“I don't know exactly. I heard about it a few months ago, but it's just that Amas' troops are starting to move into the peninsula. ”

Seeing that the continent was falling apart, even a statue the size of Contarini could not find the right news in time.

“Haven't you heard that the coastal cities on the peninsula have fallen apart? ”

Giovanni nods.

If we'd gone to the peninsula a few months ago with 100,000 troops, wouldn't we have already wiped out Salamis? ’

It's a fire hazard if you try to stop it, but you should know. Albrecht was frustrated. He was surrounded by questionable and uncertain things, but he had to make a decision.

“The troops should leave at the same time as the Boduen Ball. We can't control the direction of the winds, so we may have to fight if we ever get to Aman. If something like that happens, we'll have to break through and join the cavalry. I'll die if something like that happens to me after I leave you alone. ”

Giovanni was speechless. For a while, a heavy atmosphere filled the room.

Since then, Balthazar has given his opinion about starting next year, but has been rejected. And in the middle, when Amaz attacked, he was individually defeated.

Ultimately, according to Albrecht, 10,000 people decided to leave at once. Boduin looks a little frozen.

In three days, all the supplies were loaded, not only in Contarini, but also in the Commercial Union.

Even after breaking the rules of Lucretia, 10,000 troops, including the Knights, lived in a tent at the pier so that they could leave in the wind.

I live in a tent for three days, and if I want the northwest wind to blow, the northeast wind blows, and even the southeast wind that blows in winter starts to blow.

Albrecht had a burning heart and really wanted to build an altar.

I had to make a decision. The wind couldn't catch the wind any longer anyway. Two weeks after the fleet ships arrived, the troops were ready.

While the soldiers were camping, they loaded up their supplies in advance, but they started to burn in the morning until the end of the morning.

The ships form their own fleet, marching east along the leading ship in front of them.

The ships carrying 10,000 troops are leaving the port of Lucretia at once.

Albrecht stands at the forefront and looks at the continent from which he was born. I felt strangely disconnected from the world when I first left my hometown.

A day has passed since the ships left. So far, the Northwestern winds have blown well and are cruising.

Albrecht really wanted to thank God. No matter how close you were to invincible, nature was unable to do anything. I just have to hope with my heart.

Albrecht heard that if you meet the breeze well, you can arrive in three days, but if you meet the wind wrong, it can take four or five days.

After a week, even those skilled merchant crews said they might have to test their fate.

But by the end of the morning, a cloud had started coming from far away.

Are you kidding me? ’

Albrecht turns his head to look at Randolph. Randolph looks at his master with the face described above.

When I left Oberburn, I remembered what Hermann said: "If you die, you die." Albrecht and Randolph agreed. But really?

Even in the afternoon, the sky darkened, and I started pouring cool rain. It wasn't even a wave of gathering, but the surge hit the boat hard.

I heard the horses crying, and I had to catch something to keep people from going into the sea.

Neither did Albrecht's divine power nor his natural martial arts skills work in front of the tyranny. I've been wanting to give thanks to God for a long time.

In the midst of the chaos, I turned my gaze to the other boats, and I saw that they were already in ruins and scattered to almost every level.

Are we really going to die here without a fight? Should we have just left a year later? I thought about it all.

The wind blows crazy for a long time, and the rain pours violently, and it starts to calm down like a lie. Is this how the ocean works?

But we were already off course. I asked the crew of the League of Merchants that night, and now I have to pray to God. You know the direction of the stars, right?

But even if I knew the direction, it was to follow the wind in the first place.

Albrecht looks around and sees a lot of boats following him, but it's definitely less than 10,000 boats.

I just wanted to make sure it wasn't wrecked and that it was going well somewhere else. I just wanted to get to shore and join them.

On the fifth day of my departure, I finally saw land. In the small grass, the tall shrubs seem sturdy.

We've got as many ships ashore as we can, and we're on a boat heading ashore. Albrecht jumps into the sea, splashing to shore as he gets closer to shore.

The dry wind gives way and makes fun of Albrecht.

Albrecht is dazed, so he looks around.

‘Where am I? Fuck.’

* * *

Albrecht has decided to lay down his forces. Living on a boat makes you sick no matter how much you care about hygiene. It was more because of the age limitations.

It was not a separate bathroom in the boat of this age, but a mixture of excrement, vomit, rats and all sorts of things below the deck.

I was only at sea for five days, but the condition of the soldiers on land made me look ridiculous. Everyone seemed to know that their eyes were puffy and their cheeks were thin, even if someone saw them starving.

In fact, when they were seasick, they were right to eat very little. The knights were the same.

But I didn't get off at the docks, so I had to take them by boat.

Apparently, it doesn't seem easy to unload all the supplies until the end of the day.

Albrecht rides away from the headquarters with a few unhealthy knights to look around.

I didn't think there might be any allies down there, and I needed to know about the basic terrain.

I told Randolph to go in the other direction. If he sees any friendlies, assemble them here. He told Herman and Diego to keep their example.

Albrecht runs and sees that the little grass is dry and the horses will like it.

You run along the shoreline for a long time, and you see an ally far away. They were also swarming down to land.

“Knight Leader! Awesome! ”

As I approached them, I ran as if the Boduen were crying, not looking like horses.

“Stay with me. Boduen Ball. Gather the troops. Let's make camp today and join tomorrow. ”

Boduin can't even answer. He just nods hard. Seeing that he always relied on his older brother Philip, he seemed to have almost no judgment and determination as a commander.

Albrecht approaches to examine the soldiers' condition. He was no different from his soldiers. Everyone's eyes were puffy and their cheeks were thin.

Albrecht continues to run along the shore. The coastal cliffs were also visible, but mostly the plain was okay. Running inland for a moment, it was an endless plain.

It was originally grassland, but it was vague whether desertification was ongoing or whether recording was ongoing in the desert.

The wind was dry but cool. Especially when the sea is nearby, it is still a little hot in September, but it doesn't feel that hot.

Albrecht leads the knights back to the beginning. The sun was setting.

Troops are lighting campfires just off the coast. Looking at the conditions, I still look like crap. Maybe I should have taken a day or two off.

First, I summoned the captains of the League of Merchants to ask for their location.

“Where am I? ”

Among the captains, the one who looks like a chief said.

“I think it's the Leiant Coast. It is a long coastline south of the Salamis Peninsula. If you go north from here, you get a city called Yataq. That's where the peninsula begins. But it's already occupied by Amaz. The nearest city to the south is Tyrus, which is already occupied by Amazon. ”

"Oh, my God, they're in the middle of it! ’

“And how long will it take you from here to Salamis? ”

“You can get there in a day by boat with a gentle wind. But we can't be sure what will happen in the same wind right now. Then we have to row up to the north along the coastline......”

The captain stares at the soldiers without finishing his speech. When I saw you, I thought if I told you to get in the boat now, you wouldn't even beat me. Moreover, it seemed impossible to even catch a rower.

“Diego, what's the situation with the troops? ”

Diego checked the personnel while Albrecht was out.

“1,000 knights, 1,000 soldiers, and the knights all made it out okay. But the Boduen have 3,000 troops. ”

I felt like 8,000 of his soldiers would be crushed if I joined the Vaduin. There didn't seem to be any military losses. Thank goodness.

“Supplies?”

“I don't see a supply line. ”

When Albrecht heard that, he suddenly felt like he wanted to hear something and was bruised and blacked out.

What are you talking about, "Blue Ceiling?" ’

Albrecht is shocked and silent, and Diego says in a hurry.

“We have some supplies. I think I can hold out for a week. ”

Albrecht hurries to his senses and asks the captain again.

“How far is it from here to the Yatta Whatchamacallit? ”

The captain never knew how long it would take to get to the coast by boat. I thought about it for a moment and said.

“Not exactly, but about a week......”

Albrecht, not as a left or right commander, but as a truly leading member, always thought it was a series of judgments and decisions.

From sailing across the sea to the eastern continent, to what I would do here, I had to decide the lives of the soldiers together.

It took me a week. How you spend a week determines whether you live or die.

Albrecht saw the people around him. Diego, Randolph, Hermann, the captains, the senior knights and the infantry commanders were all staring at themselves.

Albrecht thought he could never lay down his life in that fucking wind again.

“Rest the soldiers for now. Join the Boduin tomorrow. And the captain must get the rest of the supplies on board as soon as possible. Have that ship follow the troops along the shoreline, and the rest of you head to Salamis to inform Philipp of our situation. And bring supplies from the city. You guys get some rest. ”

As Albrecht gives the order, the senior knights, infantry commanders and the ship's captains scatter. Diego, Randolph and Herman stayed behind to guard Albrecht.

Diego said.

“But what about Yatai? The cities are well defended here. It won't be easy to take him down. ”

Albrecht nods and looks at Diego.

“Maybe so. But we can't leave fate in the wind again. If you get the wind wrong, you can't really do anything and just die on the boat. I hope the captains make it to Salamis safely, and come back with supplies. I think I'll have to go and judge Yatai first. ”

Diego nods heavily as if he had no choice. Then Albrecht looks at Randolph and gives the order.

“Randolph, you'll pick some good riders tomorrow and scout the perimeter. ”

“Yes, Master. ”

“And save Diego as much as you can. ”

“Got it.”

Randolph and Diego both have heavy expressions. Diego might have a hard time from now on. If we don't give them enough food, they'll be the most insulting.

If the knights or soldiers don't know what's going on, they'll need someone to be sharpened and insulted.

Cao Cao didn't kill a military officer called the Queen for nothing. I was a little sorry to Diego.

“Master. What about me? ”

Herman looks at Albrecht and says, Albrecht smiled and said.

“You keep an eye on the soldiers. Stay strong. ”

Even Albrecht has come to another continent, and his mind is somewhat heavy, but the supply lines are gone. I left it to Herman in case the soldiers were shaken and might act rashly.

“Got it.”

Albrecht looks at the campfire after giving all the instructions. I didn't think I'd be able to sleep well even if I wanted to sleep today. I hope the Boduin has a supply line. Then we can make a big deal out of it.

He joined the Boduin the next day, but he had no supply ship. Albrecht quickly double-checks his costume and starts marching north, assuming the troops are all clear.

A day after the march, two days after. In the meantime, Diego has paid the most he cares about. The fire has begun to build.

On the third day, I saw some men on horseback with a ranger in the distance.

"Scouts."

They wander around from a distance, not approaching. They observe Albrecht's army. Then one pulls a bow over the horse and shoots an arrow.

The arrow doesn't reach you from a distance, but you're secretly irritated.

It was forbidden to put a gun in the Earth's memory, even if it was not loaded on the day of military uniform and bullets. The sergeant didn't do that to the Private.

Raising a weapon was an embarrassment, leaving a threat or not.

They see Albrecht's troops coming and going, shooting empty bows without putting any weight on them, and they feel a slight tingling sensation.

One of the knights couldn't bear it and told Albrecht.

“I'll go and kill him myself." ”

“No, leave it alone. Never react. ”

The opposing team is a guard, and the knights are heavily armed. When I got tired of chasing after him and fell down, I didn't have to watch the tactics to finish it.

The knights put fire in their eyes and stared at the scouts. The soldiers look nervous.

On the fourth day, the river came out. Problem is, I see Amas' army on the other side.

Violence is not that wide, and the depths are not that deep, but if the army is blocking it from the other side, of course, it is not easy to cross.

As if they had already known, they have long stretched their forces along the river. Sue looks like Albrecht.

Above all, you see a large number of archers that are hard to see on the North continent. It looks good to be a hedgehog when you cross the river.

“Yi, this. What are we gonna do now? Grooming.”

Boduin said, desperately. Albrecht felt his chest tightened while he was still on the run.

But at the same time, Albrecht's innate sense of battle falters. I think I can crack it.

Albrecht ignores the baboons chattering and watches his enemies closely.

A man who looks like a commander from afar rides on a horse and runs this way, facing each other across the river.

I didn't know if it was Amas or not. However, I was increasingly confident that Albrecht could break the enemy across the river.
