Valkyrie Europa

Chapter 81 Goodbye Miss Sophie
Days passed, and the situation in Paris became tense day by day.

King Qin's large and small armies gathered towards Paris from all directions.

There are obviously more people in armor and blades on the street, and the noise in the tavern is getting louder day by day.

There were more and more people drinking and making trouble, and fighting with each other, and the air was filled with violent fighting spirit.

Fortunately, the police and musketeers basically covered the whole city, so these foreigners didn't make any big troubles.

There are also some good news coming from the front line, such as the reinforcements have safely arrived in Dole City and officially took over the defense; the situation has been completely stabilized, and how many attacks by the British have been blocked; Britons, and the like, greatly boosted the confidence of everyone in Paris.

After a few days of rest and organization, the second expedition ceremony began.

The difference from the previous one is that there are more people on the expedition this time. There are four legions in total, all of which are temporary legions formed by Qin Wangjun from various places. Although their weapons and armor are not uniform, and their formation is not enough It is neat, but the momentum is still very high, and there are obviously more martial arts masters in it.

This time they were led by a fat man, Marshal Turenne, who was a representative of a military family after a famous general.

Accompanying him on the expedition was a stronger black-armored knight, another sharpshooter warrior from France.

The crowd this time was obviously not as large as last time. There was not so much sadness of parting, and there was a little more enthusiasm for victory, as if this expedition could seal the victory and completely defeat the English army.

After this expedition, there were still many small groups of King Qin's army rushing to Paris, but this time they were not organized into a legion to support the front line, but arranged some work such as strengthening the city defense, preparing the city defense equipment, and going out of the city to spy. left them in Paris.

But the originally boiling air in Paris gradually cooled down, and Zhang Ang's life gradually calmed down.

Master Todd also held classes as usual, but there were a few fewer students.

Zhang Ang also practiced sword as usual, but spent more time communicating with Albert.

Albert still looked very pessimistic: "I always feel that something is wrong, it shouldn't be so smooth."

"Isn't it good now? The city of Lille has persevered. With the support of the four legions today, it will definitely stop the English army." Zhang Ang comforted her.

"I mean, Lille City shouldn't be able to hold on, there must be something wrong here." Albert insisted.

"Didn't the news say that the opponent's attack was very fierce, and they hit the city wall several times, and everyone fought bloody battles to kill the British guy? It should be because everyone was united and fought bravely to defend it." Zhang Ang guessed according to his own understanding.

"I know exactly how strong the British are. If they really attack with all their strength, the city of Lille will not be able to defend it. The city of Lille should have been breached without waiting for the support of Marshal Villars." Albert still insisted .

"No matter what, if Marshal Turenne supports the past this time, he will definitely be able to defend it. When the weather cools down in winter, the British will definitely withdraw." Zhang Ang hoped that his good friend would not worry all day of.

"Well, maybe I'm too pessimistic, let's not talk about it, how about we go to the pub for a drink?" Albert invited.

"No, I'll wait until I have something to go out, you can go by yourself." Zhang Ang rejected his proposal.

********************************
Zhang Ang did have something to do: he wanted to see Miss Sophie again, and see what she thought of this war, or what plans she had.

After all, Zhang Ang doesn't care about many people now, only Miss Sophie's family, old Ivan and Arnold, plus a good friend Albert who has helped him a lot during this time.

As for the life and death of other people, he doesn't care at all, and he has no ability to care.

After pinching a different face again and changing into a servant's clothes, Zhang Ang walked into the Rose Sword Academy.

Compared with the past, the college is much deserted. Many students have gone home, and some have even gone to the battlefield.

Familiar with the road, Zhang Ang knocked on the door of Master Sophia's house, and after waiting for several hours, Zhang Ang saw Miss Sophie again.

"You're here." Zhang Ang obviously had a lot to say in his heart, but he didn't know where to start. In the end, he only choked out a greeting: "How are you doing recently?"

"Ah." Miss Sophie sighed leisurely, her tone was a bit resentful: "It's been so fast, half a year has passed, I thought you would never show up again."

"I've been in Paris all the time. I pass by the door of your big house every day, but I haven't seen you let the flowers out." Zhang Ang reluctantly explained.

"If I don't let you out, won't you come to me? As your fiancé, can't you take the initiative?" Miss Sophie gave Zhang Ang a white look, full of flair.

"I, this, this, I didn't expect this, this..." Zhang Ang suddenly became clumsy.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, what can I do for you?" Miss Sophie brushed her hair and sat directly opposite Zhang Ang.

"Well, isn't there a war recently? I have a friend who keeps telling me nonsense that we are about to lose the war and the British are going to come to Paris. I'm just a little worried, so I just came to ask, in case The British guy is really calling, Sophie, what preparations have you made?" Zhang Ang hurriedly stated his intention.

"Why, my Li Ang cares about people now." Miss Sophie joked.

"I'm just asking to see if I can help you." Zhang Ang felt a little hot on his face, and he must have turned red.

"Don't worry, it's okay, the things inside are more complicated, and I can't explain it to you now. But I promise, it's okay, if the British really call Paris, you can hide in the academy, here It should be safe." Miss Sophie smiled, as if she didn't care about this war at all.

"Oh, okay, then I'll come back then." Zhang Ang stood up, was about to leave, stopped again, hesitated for a while, and said softly: "Although I don't know what you want to do Sophie , but I still hope you must pay attention to safety."

"Well, I know." Miss Sophie showed a bright smile, and handed over another small box: "By the way, this is for you."

"This is?" Zhang Ang was puzzled.

"Although the autumn auction was in vain, I still participated in the summer auction. These are trophies. I think you should need them very much." Miss Sophie's smile was still faint: "What good swords will there be then? Don’t forget to let me know if it’s the law.”

Zhang Ang took the small box and suddenly felt a little sore in his heart.
