Trust is more important and scary than you think.

The power to believe in someone based on any basis and act according to his words.

However, this credit was not a concept that could be obtained as easily as one might have thought.

Credit must be based on long time and effort, so credit that is created suddenly cannot be called credit.

It’s simple trust.

It is nothing more than a vague belief in someone, and even if it seems frozen, it seems that the front and back are right, based on the information you see in front of your eyes for a moment, you should not arbitrarily conclude that it is trust.

It is a rule to go through several confirmations, and if that is not possible, approach with suspicion, and never recklessly issue the right in the name of credit to the other party until everything is clear.

However, humans sometimes make the mistake of ignoring the process.

Not only ordinary people, but also competent merchants who value credit could make such mistakes at any time.

The reason why such a phenomenon occurs despite the warnings of countless people throughout the long history of commerce and investment.

It’s because human beings instinctively have the habit of believing what they want to believe.

Even if the information in front of your eyes shows some flaws, if it is a story that suits your taste too well, it has been too often that humans swallow it without much doubt.

Without even guessing what kind of result the information that he swallowed and put on the shell of ‘credit’ would produce.

A black legion with a camp in front of a bridge over the river.

And, Sakiel’s large army rushes like a raging wave towards this place.

Watching them, the young soldiers of the Black Legion were seized with a deep sense of tension.

They had already been familiar with their strength to some extent, but nevertheless, a large army four times their size was approaching with weapons.

If you don’t feel insecure, that’s an even weirder situation.

At that time, the voice of General Commander Gerard began to be heard in their ears.

“Calm down! There are many enemies, but they are all rags! Do not act recklessly and act only according to the training! If you do, you will surely win!”

At the clear voice of the skilled general, the soldiers calmed down and looked straight ahead.

‘Yes, the enemy’s power is obvious anyway.’

‘There are obviously a lot of them, but even from our point of view right now, everything including the camp is a mess.’

‘Infantry and cavalry are moving together, archers and wizards are barely visible, it’s definitely the information I gave you above.’

I don’t know if it’s a 1:1 match. This is a battlefield where more than 100,000 people are entangled and fighting.

In such a battlefield, the most important thing is not numbers, but division of camps, efficient operation of troops, and trust in the allies standing right next to them.

Reminding themselves of the concepts they had been endlessly instilling in their heads for a little over a month, the new recruits of the Black Legion held their weapons firmly, and the veterans, who had reached middle age, smiled lightly on their lips as they watched their juniors. I calmly waited for the signal.

Just like that, the moment Sakiel’s large army was about to stand on the narrow bridge…

“Booo!!!”

The sound of a trumpet sounded the next moment.

At the same time, the warriors of the Black Legion, located at the forefront, stepped forward first.

An infantryman holding a shield large and hard enough to cover the entire body.

They overlapped the side of the shield with the palate held by a colleague right next to them, and at the same time, pierced the lower part deeply into the ground.

And..

“1st Army shelling begins!”

At the same time as the words fell, countless artillery fires flew over the heads of the fields of foot soldiers.

The artillery shells flew first, then the magicians’ ranged bombardment poured out uncountably, and finally the archers’ arrows were sprayed like rain.

“Kuuk!”

“Quaaagh!”

Sakiels collapsed screaming miserably.

Although the armor they were wearing was at a level that could easily deflect arrows, it was not enough to block shells and magic.

Explosions the size of a file that covered the entire ground and magic that fell overhead. And then arrows pouring down like rain

For a battle they had never experienced before, who usually wielded swords in narrow alleys, Sakiel’s steps slowed down for a moment.

And, at that moment, I felt that the enemy’s artillery fire had barely stopped.

“1st Army Load, 2nd Army Starts Bombardment!”

The barrage poured once more with the direct order to fire.

The first attack may have been avoided by luck, but the second bombardment cleanly wiped out the remaining enemies.

“What is it, the leading unit is wiped out?”

“What is this… 1,000 allies were wiped away in just a few minutes?”

“damn! If so, that’s only part of it! Advance like this! Those guys won’t be able to bombard indefinitely!”

Sakiels are marching forward once again, overcoming the momentum that had stalled for a while.

Certainly, as they expected, it took time to prepare for the next bombardment, and in the case of magic, it was used sparingly as there was a limit to reuse.

At least, thanks to the ample support of the Beden Merchants, there would be no shortage of shells and arrows even today, but it is impossible to completely fill the gap in the artillery fire.

So, taking advantage of the moment when the attacks toward this side had stopped, the Sakiels quickly crossed the bridge and started running toward the enemy camp.

The ranged attack is fierce, but even so, the opponent is only a hastily recruited militia except for some.

They judged that there was no reason for them to lose as long as they got closer.

But…

“! What… what is this?”

“Kuh! It’s just one shield! But what makes it so strong?”

A large, solid barrier of shields blocks their way.

In response, the Sakiels tried to break through it by swinging their weapons, but their attacks were not producing any results, as if knocking on a solid iron door with a branch.

“Damn it, get out of the way! We’re out!”

Those with heavy equipment like giant axes and maces in their hands

Among the soldiers, they were classified as strong, and some of them were weak, but they were using condensation.

If they go out, no matter how much the formation of the shield soldiers is, they will be broken through.

at that time..

“Quaaagh!”

“Gagging!”

A sudden scream from the side

The faces of the Sakiels gathered at this began to look puzzled.

A scene clearly visible in their eyes

It was… the advance of the cavalry soldiers sortied from both sides of the shield camp.

“Sweep them all away!”

“For the Kingdom of Hungary!”

Cavalrymen riding black horses wearing black cloaks.

Not inexperienced recruits, but only those with thick bones in the battlefield, their attack began to tear helplessly the Sakiels who had crossed the river.

“Damn it! Block! Stop those guys!”

The generals trying to stop the advance of the cavalry by any means.

However, the advance of the rough black horses that trampled everything on top of them and the knights who wielded their weapons without hesitation on top of them, was something Sakiel, who was only engaged in gang fights, could not do anything about.

And, the moment when Sakiel’s spirits were completely lost due to the offensive from the side.

“Gagging!”

“Keep it off!”

Shield soldiers who were only considered as a solid wall until just now.

The spears pouring out between them in an instant pierced the bodies of Sachiels, who were looking away.

Sakiels who were unilaterally slaughtered this time without any remorse.

Nevertheless, the light of tension did not disappear from the faces of the Black Legion, including Gerard.

The total number of enemies killed in skirmishes so far is 6000.

There was no damage to the allies yet, but there were still a lot of enemies left to be disgusting. Above all, due to the previous battle, he did not hastily advance, and he was having time to refine his camp for a while.

‘It’s going to get a little difficult from here. Seeing the strength of our allies, I won’t rush at you recklessly…’

While thinking so, Gerard’s gaze slowly turned to the Budapest Castle located in the back.

‘Should I wait a little longer? I hope it can be done before any possible damage to allies occurs…’
