Chapter 41 The First Anti-Norman League [2]
The anti-Norman alliance is stronger than expected. In fact, the Duke of Buckingham himself did not expect that the potential that each force could tap would be so strong. Taking the Principality of Lithuania as an example, they promised that in the next two months, the defense force in the Principality would be expanded from 70,000 to 220,000. This is only superficial strength, not to mention that the Principality of Lithuania has recruited a large number of outlaws from some private mercenary associations. Obviously, this is a big war.
As for the King of Frankfurt and the King of Gaul, one promised to send 90,000 troops, and the other promised 50,000. This is already the limit of the seven crowns under the two imperial powers. In fact, in addition to resisting the future war of the Normans, they must also be wary of the existing threats. Otherwise, they may not know if they are sold.
As for countries like those in Scandinavia, most of them have to contribute.
Like the Kingdom of Dandelmand, it directly mentions that there are 200 warships and 110,000 troops, which is almost all the strength of this country. The Kingdom of Nordland has 150 warships with a strength of 100,000. The Kingdom of Rieldia sent 150,000 troops. The Kingdom of Suk Grand has prepared half of all the siege materials, while the Kingdom of Suk Grand has half of the food and half of the weapons.
On the surface, the total promised strength of more than two dozen countries and powerful figures has exceeded one million people. Millions of troops, even the Roman Empire, is not randomly recruited. Obviously, this is a very exaggerated mobilization. However, how to schedule is a big problem.
Reinhardt, a famous general of the Kingdom of Inkergrande, was elected as the supreme commander of the future southern theater and the marshal of the southern coalition. The famous commander of the Kingdom of Norland, Deniz, is the highest officer of the northern war zone and the marshal of the northern coalition. The naval combat power is dispatched by the Kingdom of Danmande and the Kingdom of Norman respectively. This war is a land and sea amphibious battle. If it wins, the result of the Normans will be extremely tragic. Losing is at most losing some troops and property, which is nothing for many countries.
The most serious thing is the Principality of Lithuania. They are fighting the current war with future money. Of course, the brewing of this war is very secretive. At least no one in the Norman Kingdom has such a channel to get such information. And the number of secret meetings of the alliance is not large, and the number is only a few. No one is stupid enough to say everything.
It's just that the Roma spies thought that the actions of more than 20 countries were too strange. They deliberately or unintentionally expanded their troops there and trained new recruits, which made people more or less doubt whether there was any big move. The Slavic negotiator, Count Gorbachev, had just arrived in the Norman Kingdom, and the envoys of most countries also began to evacuate. This matter was very strange and made him a little defensive.
At the same time, 50,000 recruits in the new phase of training also began to rush to the front lines of the south and the north, ready for a war at any time. In the southern region, which has been pressed for a long time, the Golliro and the motoring feel that there seems to be something wrong with the recent atmosphere of the Lithuanians. In the face of the provocation of the Normans, they usually fight back a little, but now, they look like they want to be a man with their tail between their tails.
This aroused the suspicion of Madaling and Goliluo, so both of them sent a large number of scouts and scouts to inquire about the news in the Duchy of Lithuania. As a result, it was very shocking that Kirillenko, the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Lithuania, was forced to recruit there. Nearly 50,000 people have been raised. This country with a conventional army of less than 70,000 people actually raised 50,000 people in an instant, not to mention that more than 40 non-governmental mercenary organizations have poured into the local area. The number of people is also 60,000 to 70,000. In terms of this number, the number of troops in this country has exceeded 200,000. This is still the surface data. The real situation can only be more than this number, not less than this number.
"What? Expand the army?" Gang Liluo's eyes tightened and immediately shouted, "Go and prepare the horse and get ready to go to the commander of the Madaling Legion!"
At this time, Madaring also issued such an order: "Go to the commander of the Congoluo army immediately!"
In the end, the two teams encountered each other in the middle. As a result, they felt that the problem was very serious and immediately reported it to Tamsalu City. At this time, Ma Hu was speculing about the disappearance of a large number of envoys, and with the news of the Duchy of Lithuania, Boss Ma finally had some leaders. He seemed to feel that some guys seemed to have to make some big moves.
Is it possible that they are united? The sloppy thought.
Then connect some strange things together, combine them with the existing situation, and finally draw a conclusion. This is the truth. Maybe there are already many countries united. Things are much worse than I estimated. I'm afraid that many people have acted secretly.
"Damn! I didn't notice it for a moment, but I didn't expect that the sheep would also resist!" The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became. Boss Ma immediately held the highest cabinet meeting, and the three giants met again. At this time, after Ma Hu said his doubts, Sahili and Norton changed their faces. Obviously, this news and inference are very frightening.
"In my opinion, continuing to recruit, Tartu's Tauren has almost been trained. At least, 60,000 tarew warriors can be added, and Viking warriors also have 112,000, counting just. More than 100,000 of Cole's horses, our strength is still objective. I just don't know how much the enemy is prepared. If it's just the intention of the Principality of Lithuania, that's all. But the worst thing is that the withdrawal of these envoys is actually well-founded. In the face of the envoys of the Slavic Empire, these envoys are indeed not necessary to stay. However, I intuitively feel that some of these evacuated missions should have participated in this time. Norton, the chief of the Tauren, said so.
"You said so much, you just said a word of nonsense, oh no, it's a bunch of nonsense!" Sahili glanced at Norton, then looked at Ma Hu and said, "Tiger, you know how much we have, but if the direction of the opponent's attack is changeable, maybe we don't have much good fruit to eat. Therefore, you should know better than me that you must deduce in advance and send more spies. As long as we figure out their approximate attack time and direction of attack location, we can attack in advance, so that more risk factors can be eliminated in the cradle.
Boss Ma nodded and said, "Actually, I want to solve the Duchy of Lithuania first. At this time, the old guy Kirilenko has sent a condolence group, and his precious daughter, the legendary beautiful Princess Helen, is also among them. If we don't know the old man's plan in advance, maybe things will really be puzzling. I'm afraid that the most beautiful daughter is also to confuse us. Damn it, this old man's capital is really enough.
"Hum, let little Saxon retreat from the Kingdom of Esland and retreat to the area of Hiuma Island. He is ready to go out at any time. Gareth's action will also be accelerated. And in the Philland area, I think it is enough to leave a small number of troops. With so many servants and appropriate pressure, a lot of things can be accomplished. Therefore, the main purpose is to prevent those forces attacking from the sea. If we speculate, it should be more than several countries in Scandinavia. The point should be the Kingdom of Nordland and the Kingdom of Danland. Sahili pointed to the map and said seriously.
"In fact, the Kingdom of Suk Grand and the people of Suk Grand are worth dealing with. The geographical location of these two countries is superior, and few people can threaten their existence. Therefore, their economic strength is visible, that is to say, if they want to launch a large-scale war, they are fully capable. Support it with strength. Well, the main supply line must be the responsibility of these two countries.
Sahili talked about it and speculated very accurately. In fact, he had almost speculated about the arrangement of the Duke of Buckingham, because it can be said that the hero's opinion was slightly the same. He used the hypothesis, that is to say, Sahili assumed that he was the enemy, and then as an enemy, what to do. The evil Viking warrior will naturally not think of this hypothesis. According to the analysis of the existing information of the Normans, Sahili's inference, even if it is not completely right, is still inseparable.
"Well... I think Shazu's words are right. According to the current situation, they should have been incited to form a secret alliance. I'm afraid there are not many people who know. If it hadn't been for the vigilance of Gangliluo and the motoring, I'm afraid I really don't understand it. Ma Hu was a little afraid, and then said, "But anyway, we must recruit. Although conscription is a headache, we can't know how many enemies there are at present. We can pretend to have routine exercises, and then recruit. The nature of the militia can be directly converted into a regular army, so that we can hide some in terms of military strength. At least in a sudden moment, there can be an explosive impact.
Norton took over the conversation and said, "Tarotman of Tartu, if it really doesn't work, the whole Baltic region will be recruited, counted as Gang. Cole's Eastern Mercenary Federation has a population of 150,000, and with our elite and navy, the total strength will exceed 600,000. This number is already terrible. The key is the immediate tactical problem. I am not worried about the on-the-spot performance of the generals. However, if the Slavs learn that our enemy has a new move at this time, will they immediately return to China for a test, then they will have to think about it. I can only say that this is a big crisis.
The Tauren Chief is not alarmist. In fact, this is indeed a big crisis. If you are not careful, maybe everything about the Normans will be beaten back to its original form.
Boss Ma himself is actually worried about this matter. After all, the sudden expression of an anti-Norman alliance is really a cold sweating event.
