Chapter 13 Dark War [1]
Bang!
The huge thick cow scalp boots trampled on the last bit of Mars. The huge body stood on the land ravaged by a fire. Looking left and right, it was like bad ruins. The people gushing out around were full of anger in their eyes. The arrival of this terrible band of thieves made the town of Marlin volt suffer a lot. Loss.
Many soldiers of the Norman Kingdom died in the battle. The family members were crying there, and then the women knelt in front of the commander and shouted that they wanted to avenge their men. This is a very simple thing. It seems that it is true. Unfortunately, it seems that the enemy can't be found anywhere.
"Damn it! How cunning!"
Although Tiger House reminded the two guys at the beginning that the enemy will be very cunning and be prepared for a long-term battle, Tangorine still hates when he really faces this situation. He doesn't like the feeling of being played with, and it is still in such an extreme situation.
Although the army is under pressure, it is powerful, but this kind of tricky guerrilla warfare is also a headache.
Although this threat based on mobility may not be the foundation of the battle, it is very annoying.
Looking around, Tangorine saw his soldiers for the first time with blank eyes. Yes, it was the confusion and the eluspability of the enemy that made these poor recruits a little scared. They don't have the fierce and decisiveness of veterans, and they don't want to lift a knife to cut and kill.
"Damn..."
didn't say any nonsense. Tangorine just promised, "This will never happen again!" Please believe me, the enemy will be hit hard, and they will be killed by me one by one, absolutely!"
When the widows heard this voice, they became more and more fierce. There were many women crying, but at this time tomorrow, their men's bodies might be incinerated. This is the rule of the kingdom, and most of the time, it is also a last resort. In the cemetery of the cemetery, the heroic posture of these soldiers may really appear.
"It's a Ranger."
Papaya said softly.
Tangorine nodded. He was not a tricky person, but he was still extremely careful when looking at some problems. He has judged the fighting habits of these cavalry.
Two wings envelop, have a strong bow, and be decisive.
Thieves? Don't be kidding! If the thieves are at this level, then they don't have to fight so hard in the million war, and even buried tens of thousands of soldiers from the Norman Kingdom.
These guys are definitely regular troops, and they are also elite!
Papaya also seemed to understand, and his eyes were a little surprised, as if he understood what His Majesty said to him. It seemed that it was true. These guys... are really good at finding a way!
"This kind of tactic should not be a southerner, but a cavalry regiment in Minsk and the elite of the Norman Kingdom. It seems that there are some means. It seems that Alex, the eldest prince of the Roma Empire, is under a lot of pressure in the Minsk Dominion."
Tangori's eyes flashed fiercely. He didn't like to show his mood directly, but anyway, it was certain.
"Our central army must make some postures, not to mention that there may be pressure in the north and south now, and there may be a big battle at any time, so I'm afraid that the hinterland can only rely on the local army. Although the other party is a cavalry, the number is not large, at most about one legion. It seems that they have a large number of horses. It won't delay mobility.
"...The purpose is not to undermine our confidence, but this may be an unexpected gain. Their target should be supplies. A large number of gold and silver wares have been robbed. The resistance of the local army cannot be said to be impossible. On the contrary, it is very strong, but they are very determined to show that the battle is necessary. They are eager for the first victory. Therefore, we have to win.
I looked down at a few corpses. These corpses have strong muscles. Although their bodies are not very tall, they can even be said to be a little short, but their limbs are developed and their legs are thick, which is obviously because they have been living on horseback for a long time. Moreover, the power of the strong bow is amazing. It is not inferior to some hard bows of the city defense army, which can reach 600 meters away. In terms of accuracy, the deviation is very small. If it is a sharpshooter, I'm afraid it will explode with greater power.
"These guys have clear goals and are very simple. I think this should be a mandatory order. Papaya also saw some clues.
"It can't be confirmed, but now I can only say that Alex is so hateful. It's just that we can't start a war at this time. If the Roma Empire is promoted by us, it will be bad. However, since His Majesty has given us this opportunity and credit, we must do something. This situation must not happen again. It has been half a month. Although the continuous stalemate has wins and losses, the town will not run away by itself. The number of soldiers is far from a disadvantage in part.
Tangorine seemed to have a headache. He thought about it, touched his chin, and thought for a while: "I think we should set up more guard stations. It is built every kilometer. As long as the beacon is lit, the cavalry brigade can react quickly. At that time, the speed of the reinforcements is enough to make up for this time difference.
As soon as Papaya thought about it, he understood and high-fiveed: "That's good! In this way, many problems can indeed be solved! As long as you can be prepared and advance layer by layer, you are not afraid that they will be invincible!"
He made up his mind and immediately issued an order: "Send the highest order of the legion and prepare to build a simple warning platform." This is the guardhouse, so the soldiers stationed in each place may be five or six cavalry at most. In this way, they are not afraid of the pursuit of the brigade cavalry, and as long as there is a beacon fire, they will react everywhere. It is much more powerful than wasted empty boat flying in the sky.
Although this method is stupid, it is simple and very effective.
For today's central region, it is very important to consolidate people's confidence.
Soldiers can't be consumed like this endlessly. Most importantly, it inadvertently hit the soldiers' self-confidence, which is unbearable for most people.
Especially the two legion commanders, who control the army. If there is nothing they can do with a haunted cavalry regiment, it is really terrible.
"Let's see what a good card Alex is. If you think that relying on this little tattered Rangers can make us lose confidence, then he needs to be mentally prepared."
Tangori looked calm. Looking at the distance, he said in his heart: This time, it is my opportunity. Naturally, the opportunity given to me by His Majesty the King cannot be missed. Those old guys in China have been staring at our position for a long time. At this time, a little relaxation is a disaster, even if His Majesty does not. If you want to let go, you may be forced to do nothing.
"Time is running out. Many people in China are staring at it, but at this time, they also need to divert their attention. His Majesty has begun to give orders, and the North has indeed changed from a threat to a practical action.
Papaya whispered to Tangorine.
Tangori nodded and had a plan in mind. He knew that although this was inevitable, it was so early because His Majesty had to take care of them. Otherwise, according to the normal time, it should be a few months later, and it would not be so early, otherwise, it would not Make the whole kingdom look busy.
The Kingdom of Rieldian will definitely be beaten, but in fact it will not be at this time. It was a very long time to digest the Duchy of Lithuania and most of the land cededs, but no one expected that there would suddenly be a big riot in the Great Prison of Impel, and now a large number of thieves appeared in the central hinterland. For a while Those guys who used to be quiet broke out and had a great subversion.
......
In the Minsk Autonomous Territory, His Royal Highness Prince Alex breathed a long sigh of relief, as if something nervous had finally ended, and his heart was stunned: Normans were really not easy to fool. But anyway, things won't be so complicated now. It's finally over. As long as the plundering is appropriate, it should be possible to store a lot of goods before the arrival of winter.
"As long as the materials are abundant, as soon as winter is over, we should be able to train another batch of troops. At that time, we will go south directly for the reason of maintaining the security of the imperial capital!" Alex has made up his mind. In fact, this is a long-overdue decision.
But the complex situation in China is simply unbelievable. Worst of all, Prince Ursula is also very strong. His army has exceeded 90,000. Although there are a large number of suspicions, he seems to be the only one who holds so many troops in the non-central army.
In the empire, tens of thousands of legions of magicians, are also under the influence of His Royal Highness. It can be said that as long as Mike Russell, the magic minister, supports Prince Ursura to maintain the status quo of the empire, the princes can't change for a day. After all, today's parliamentary system has benefited most of the nobles and big businessmen. Even Mike Russell himself was a little flustered. The old minister felt that even without an emperor, even in this situation, he could maintain the empire far away.
But he didn't know that now in the north, the expansion of the Normans has reached the point of unbridled. Alex's pressure comes not only from China, but also from the strength of Tiger House's whole kingdom.
This is a secret war at home and abroad. Most importantly, Alex knows his position well, and he is very passive.
