He didn't take it seriously at all. He knew that the real key enemy had returned, but Ragnar didn't have enough information about who the Swadian Kingdom had sent, so he couldn't find out.

Seeing that King Ragnar did not speak, Peters continued to ask: "Then let me ask again, do you understand the army you lead?"

King Ragnar was not sure about Peters' question. If he was asked about his own army, he would definitely know the quality of his army and their strengths and weaknesses. But if he was asked about his vassal's army, he had no idea about his vassal's level. After all, from the time he assembled the army to now, he had not properly checked his vassal's army.

"Knowing yourself and understanding your enemy is the key to winning a battle!" Peters sighed.

"I was negligent." Ragnar originally thought that he had grasped the overall situation, but what Peters said just now seemed insignificant. However, if you think about it carefully, this is the basic thing that must be mastered during the war.

King Ragnar suddenly remembered that Harlaus had already known his attack route, but he could only guess that Harlaus would send a powerful army to guard the castle. As for who would lead the army, Ragnar neglected it.

"Be careful, my king." Peters warned King Ragnar. "You have been a little arrogant recently. Not only did you not send troops together with the Kingdom of Vigia, but you also did not make sufficient preparations for the war. This..." Peters did not accept it and continued. He knew that Ragnar would understand what he said next.

"I understand." Ragnar was also an intelligent man. He knew what Peters would say next. If he was not a king, Peters would scold him severely.

During the conversation, the army of the Nord Kingdom had already arrived near the Reptile Castle.

King Ragnar declared camp and began to build siege towers and other siege equipment.

Standing on the city wall, the "Meteor Knight" Edgars looked at the approaching Nordic army. In the center was a crow flag. Edgars knew that this was the army of King Ragnar.

Edgars pointed at the flag and said to the people around him: "Look, this is King Ragnar's army. His army is well-disciplined and a powerful force."

The three lords beside him knew that their focus should be on King Ragnar's troops without Edgars pointing at them. After all, as long as they dealt a heavy blow to King Ragnar's core troops, the morale of other troops would be affected. This was the best way to defeat the Nordic army. As for Ragnar's army, they naturally hoped that it would be as weak as possible, but unfortunately, as a king, Ragnar would definitely train his army to be extremely elite, not only for foreign wars, but also to prevent some vassal states with ulterior motives at home.

"That's true. Do you have any good ideas?" asked Earl Brandts.

They had arrived at the castle long ago and installed King Harlaus, who appointed his knight Edgars as the supreme commander of the castle.

"King Ragnar will definitely be willing to put his most powerful troops in the front. According to intelligence, he wants to capture the castle quickly. Therefore, in order to motivate his vassals, he will definitely release his most elite troops as the vanguard. We must not let Ragnar's troops advance even a little bit." Edgars' idea is good, but it is very difficult to actually do it.

After all, these are the king's troops, and their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

"So has it been implemented so concretely?" asked Earl Craggs.

"You see, they are building a siege tower. King Ragnar will definitely let his most elite troops show off. He will definitely let his troops go in with such powerful siege equipment and rely on such sharp siege equipment to send his troops to the city wall. So..." Edgars hadn't finished speaking.

Craggs went on.

"So, we must attack this siege tower with all our strength. This siege tower is made of wood. As long as we set it on fire, we can cause heavy losses to Ragnar's army."

"Yes, that's right. Not only that, we will also put the most elite troops on the front line of the resistance against Ragnar. As long as Ragnar's troops are frustrated, it will affect the morale of his vassal's troops. At this time, we will have hope of defending Fort Reporet." Edgars seemed to see the moment when he would persevere until victory.

Seeing Edgars's excitement, Count Craggs shook his head in his heart. Things are not always so easy to accomplish. +

Saltonjar looked at the road ahead. He had passed Fort Jerborg and would soon reach Fort Repole.

I hope King Ragnar won't blame me for being late.

Thordenjar said in his heart that he was leading an army of 50 men, which seemed insignificant for this great battle. However, facing the call of King Ragnar, he had to move forward even with the smallest number of troops.

"My lord, are you worried about the anger of King Ragnar?" said his adjutant Falk.

"Yes, I'm late." Thordon Jarl didn't shy away from saying anything. He was a kind man and was merciful to his subordinates. "King Ragnar has left. They arrived at Rebollet Castle first. I must hurry over now. If I arrive in time, His Majesty the King might forgive me."

"King Ragnar's order is to capture Fort Reporet before sunset. We can get there now, so don't worry." Falk began to comfort Saltonjar at this time.

Two men were riding horses in front, talking as they walked. The soldiers following behind them watched their lords chatting, and they were also discussing the war in low voices below.

As Nords, they naturally hope that the Nordic Kingdom will win, so they all look at this war with a positive attitude.

"With the support of the Kingdom of Vaegir, Swadia will definitely not be able to defeat us if we combine our two countries together."

A bearded soldier spoke to his companions, and his statement was soon agreed by everyone.

In fact, not only ordinary soldiers were talking about this matter, but even nobles like Salton were talking about this war.
