Chapter 1660: Arrival of reinforcements (Ⅱ)

Governor Norfolk saw through General Jumonville’s thoughts that he was determined to deploy his troops to support Midgard. Only the Midgard can completely defeat the Fiji on the northern battlefield to crush General Jumonville’s last hope. That day, the sea-blue people will retreat without a fight.
Joan received a letter from Colonel Vaasa on June 16 and learned that he would lead a thousand Yalfheim militiamen from Port Leiden early in the morning and go north along the Gulf of Asa. Not surprisingly, the support force will arrive in Midgard Harbor next Sunday, June 24.
Joan’s two friends in his hometown, Dick Dingdall and Roger Dingdall, will also accompany Colonel Vasa. The two brothers made repeated achievements on the southern front and have been promoted to captains of cavalry, becoming a new generation of elite officers of the Alfheim Corps.
On the morning of June 24th, the troop carrier boarded by the Vaasa Corps arrived at Leiden Port.
Joan was waiting for his family and friends from his hometown early in the morning. Governor Nichols was also very face-saving, leading the leaders of the Midgard military and political circles to greet Colonel Vasa and his party, and expressed his heartfelt thanks to the fellow citizens of the South for their charity.
Joan noticed that although Baron Laval also attended the welcoming ceremony, his expression was rather cold, which was in stark contrast to the passionate Governor Nichols.
When meeting with Colonel Vaasa, Baron Laval showed aristocratic arrogance. Until Colonel Vaasa reached out his right hand and waited no less than five seconds, he barely shook hands with him.
Joan could tell that Baron Laval looked down on Colonel Vaasa.
As for the reason, perhaps it is because Colonel Vaasa is not a noble, and his qualifications and status in the army are far inferior to Baron Laval?
However, Joan was more inclined to think that Baron Laval mainly despised Colonel Vaasa’s past embarrassing record, and did not understand why the Governor of Norfolk had appointed a
generally defeated general
as the reinforcement commander.
Baron Laval may be taboo, feeling that shaking hands with Colonel Vaasa not only damages his identity, but also may be contaminated with repeated defeats.
Since returning from a visit to Shizhu Town, Sir Castes has not been in good health. Today, he did not personally come to the pier to greet Colonel Vaasa on the grounds of embarrassment. On the one hand, he appointed the Governor Nichols to welcome him, and secretly entrusted Joe Ann sends a personal greeting to Colonel Vaasa.
After all these years of experience, Joan has understood some of the human circumstances, and guessed that the reason why Sir Castis did not come to the pier to meet Colonel Vasa today, in addition to physical embarrassment, the main reason is to avoid embarrassment.
George Vassar married Miss Martha, the eldest daughter of the Lord, but because of various factors, he did not attend his daughter's wedding.
If Sir Castis meets his son-in-law in public, Colonel Vaasa will certainly be surprised by his father-in-law's aging image that does not match the actual age. As a son-in-law, of course, he should be concerned about what kind of sickness his father-in-law has and why he is so haggard?
Naturally, Colonel Vaasa will also mention Martha and Rebecca, and then ask why his father-in-law had no news for more than a decade, and he refused to meet his relatives in his hometown...
These common topics are indeed human nature, but they will embarrass Sir Castres.
Joanne thinks about his position, and if he is Sir Castes, he will avoid meeting with Colonel Vaasa in public.
After Colonel Vasa and his entourage settled down, Joanne frequently ran back and forth between the Hermitage Manor and the barracks, and was forced to serve as a postman for Sir Kastis and Colonel Wasa and his son, not to help them. Spreading the word was to send the letter on his behalf, which made him very hard.
Sir Castis and Colonel Vaasa were also sorry for causing him to go back and forth, but they couldn’t help. They both recognized Joan. Weng and his son were inconvenient to disclose family privacy to outsiders, so they could only trust Joan Transmitted on behalf of.
"You just trust me, are you afraid of leaking me?"
On this question, Joan asked Colonel Vaasa and Sir Cassis.
Weng's answer was surprisingly consistent.
"You are also our family, but who can trust you, who else can you trust?"
Joan was deeply touched by this, but also a little uneasy.
He is not sure, how does Rebecca view this issue? Do you not remember the grudges of the past, like your brother-in-law and father, treat yourself as a family member, or are you still thinking about Joan Vida as the most hated man in the world?
Colonel Vaasa came to Midgard this time and had specifically told Joan that Martha missed him very much. He also specially asked Colonel Vaasa to bring him gifts. They were all native products of the White House Estate, but they did not. Mention whether Rebecca has something to tell him.
Joanne knew that Colonel Vaasa was a very careful person and would never neglect others’ entrustment. Since he deliberately did not mention Rebecca, it showed that Rebecca had nothing to say or nothing to him. Good words...
His grievance with Rebecca was like a nail buried in his heart. It still tingled after two years, making it difficult for him to release.
When the time came in July, Joan heard another piece of good news.
The victory of the Battle of Lake Aosta finally prompted the imperial royal family, cabinet and the Holy See to reach a consensus, and decided to send a force from the empire's homeland to travel to the Midgade colony to join the war, help the compatriots of the New World to defend their homeland, and jointly fight against Invaders in the north.
On July 17, 1622, under the of the Imperial Navy Fleet, the reinforcements led by the Imperial Marshal Prince Sigmund entered the mighty port of Midgard.
Prince Marshal Sigmund Hansenberg, an imperial marshal, is a well-recognized general in the world. He has never defeated the command of his life and is known as the "empire warlord".
Not long ago, Governor Nichols said in an interview with the Midgard Tribune:
"Midgard people should thank Prince Sigmund, and thanks to the firm support of His Excellency Marshal, it finally led to His Majesty the Emperor and Cabinet Prime Minister Count Mueller agreeing to add troops to the New World."
Not only that, but the senior marshal, who was already very old, worked tirelessly and personally led the soldiers across the ocean. It can be seen that the "empire warlord" has realized that this is a war that cannot be lost.
Governor Nichols even publicly asserted in an interview: "Whether to win this war to compete for the monopoly of the magic resources of the New World is not only related to the survival of our Midgard colony, but also directly affects the Holy Asham Empire. The rise and fall of the National Games."
On the afternoon of the same day, in addition to the governor of Midgard, William Nickles, there were three other important generals in the afternoon. They were Baron Benedict Laval, commander of the colonial garrison of Midgard, and a representative of the Assa ally. Logan Walsonge, and the commander of the Alfheim Corps, George Vassar, who came from the South not long ago.
