Conquest

    Chapter 269 [Please hang my head! 】(the second semester

    The look of the County Overseer was awful and a bitter smile: "Although I don't understand the military strategy, the reason why the army needs food supply is still clear." They didn't attack Denzel City because the guy in Green was so embarrassed that he burned the land and food outside the city! Forcing these Odin people to hurry to go south to raise food. But we are different…Look outside, what these Odin people have been raging in the past three days! We are a piece of fat now, how can they not bite it! I didn’t bite a few days ago because they had to regain their vitality. This piece of fat, we were already trapped by them, and we couldn’t run away here. ”

    After a pause, Corinthia lowered his voice: "And, I am County Overseer! I know very well that the Odin people are not able to break through our city! The taxable food in the spring was collected in the past few days, so these days, in the farmer's home in the village, there is not much food in the family. Even if all of these Odin people searched, they could eat tens of thousands of troops. How many days can they support these things? But we are different! The city now reserves the taxable food of the whole county that has just been collected! If it falls in their hands, enough of this Odin person will consume more than two months! How could they let us go? ”

    Speaking of this, Corinthia smiled: "Even if they want to snatch these supplies, they will never give up on us."

    The County Overseer sighed softly: "Unfortunately, I was too pedantic, I didn't care, I didn't learn Green's scorch…Oh, in fact, even if I learned Green, it would be useless. Odin people have gone south and have already given up Denzel City. When they arrived at us, they have already made a dead end. In any case, they have to grab the food to attack the city…"

    The tax official angered: "It's all Green! If he doesn't mess around, the Odin people won't give up on them, so they will come to us soon! He is awkward, but it hurts us! ”

    Just shut up.Corinthia sighed and angered: "What is this! Denzel City is the county's military reserve! Keeping them is far more valuable than keeping us! As long as Denzel City is still there, our county garrison is still there! It’s a nail tied behind Odin! Green's approach, instead of hating him, I am grateful to him! I only hate myself for being too pedantic, without the courage to act decisively…If I have such courage, Odin people don't even want to grab this food now! ”

    The tax official sighed: "Lord, it’s too late to say anything now…Our city, it seems that it may not be able to stay until tomorrow…"

    "Tomorrow dark?"Corinthia sneered: "Tomorrow morning, the Odin people will be able to break the city."

    The tax official still had to talk, but suddenly he heard the screaming from behind the city: "It’s on fire! The storeroom is on fire! ! ”

    Looking back, the depths of the city, the farthing of the sky, as if the direction of the warehouse!

    This tax official suddenly changed color: "Lord! Public finance The warehouse is on fire! shit! Our reserves are all there! Is it that the Odin people have a spoiled potential city? ! ”

    He was about to go down the city, but Corinthia grabbed him! I saw this County Overseer's face stunned, his eyes flashing, obviously a weak face, but at the moment there is a bit of awkward appearance.

    "Don't go, not the spies of Odin…I sent a few of my guards to do it! ”

    Corinthia looked like a blade and looked back at the fire in the city. The warehouse in the city is the tax reserve of the whole county. Once it is burned up, the fire will fill the sky, and almost half of the sky will be red! The smoke is rolling up and it makes people feel scared!

    The tax official glanced at it and saw Corinthia's look, and his heart suddenly became bright! The current low channel: "Lord ?!"

    "Heng."Corinthia bit his lip and let the blood flow, but sneered: "I don't burn myself. Is it left for the Odin people to eat after the city breaks!"

    Said, he suddenly screamed, raised his hands and looked up at the sky!

    I hate… I hate it! ! I hate the traitors in the empire! ! I hate the national transport! My Byzantine has been a country for thousands of years. Is it really the end of the road! ! ! God! You blink your eyes! ! ”

    The voice is exhausted, the word is crying!

    In the big camp of the Odin people outside the city, Manninger is having dinner, and the generals will come in and ask: "The patriarch, let us attack the city tomorrow morning!" The warriors are full and have a rest! This Mesta City garrison is too weak, these Byzantine sheep, I can break the gate at most one hour! ”

    Manninger smiled softly: "Of course, this fat meat should also be a mouthful!"

    He was laughing, and he heard someone anxiously rushing in. When he saw his own guard, Chief, he squatted in front of him: "The patriarch! There is a skyrocketing fire in the city! ”

    Manninger suddenly changed his mind and strode out. He looked up and saw the direction of Mesta City. There was a crimson light in the city…

    Manninger just looked at it and immediately shouted and shook his head and shouted: "Transfer!" Attack the city immediately! Hurry! Let the warriors attack the city immediately! At all costs, be sure to rush in as soon as possible! ! Fast

    The Odin's siege was indeed fast, and the general who had brag about Manninger did not lie. At an hour, the gate was broken. The Odin man drove straight into the city, barely receiving any decent resistance, just rushing to When I arrived at the warehouse, I stopped helplessly.

    The warehouse is located, the whole street has become a sea of ​​fire! The fire is full of the sky, where is the manpower can be extinguished? !

    Although Manninger has ordered the soldiers to fight fire, but such a big fire, even if the Odin people do their best, they can't control it.

    The fire was burned to the morning of the next day, and there was no momentum of extinction! The Odin people did their best and did not get much food.

    It was dawn, when Manninger's big tent, several Odin warriors pushed one in.

    "The patriarch, this guy brought people to fight near the fire, and finally the people around him died, and he finally yelled at what he was County Overseer, to see our General. Hey, we see that he seems to be a Chief, and he is born to give it to you. ”

    Manninger looked at the person in front of him, his body was already ragged, blood was everywhere, the armor was taken off, but the robe was black and red, and his hair was burnt in many places. Just in the eyes of Manninger, I can see at a glance that this person is not a warrior at all.

    He moved and stood up and walked in front of him: "Who are you?"

    This person is naturally Corinthia, he looked up and stared at Manninger proudly: "Byzantine Empire Moore County County Overseer Consul, Corinthia!"

    "Sure enough, you."Manninger didn't look very harsh, but he was a bit polite: "I am the Odin Basak patriarch, the Red Snow Commander-in-Chief Manninger. Lord Corinthia, why have you seen me since he was defeated? ”

    "Hey, look at what the enemy daring that dares to invade my territory looks like."Corinthia sneered.

    Manninger didn't change his face: "Is you ordered to burn my food?"

    Corinthia was furious and yelled: "The thief!" What is your food! That's all owned by my Byzantine Empire! When will it become yours! It’s really a robber’s remark! ! ”

    His words made the surrounding Odin warriors angry, and immediately smashed his feet. Manninger waved to let others flash away, standing in front of Corinthia and smiling: "Well, it doesn't matter who is, anyway, it burns now." Hum

    He indulged for a moment and said: "Corinthia, I know your name, you are in Moone County. When County Overseer has been in office for seven years? Two times your country and our war, you are the Consul of Moore County, responsible for assisting in the preparation of ordnance. In this way, the first two times your country has repulsed our army, and you are not a credit. Hēi hēi. ”

    "Hmph!"Corinthia sneered: "It's a pity that I didn't do it well enough. I didn't help my country to kill Odin thieves!"

    Manninger sighed: "You guys like Byzantine just like to lick their tongues. I don't argue with you, just ask you, you have been in Moore County for seven years. I heard that you have managed Moore County very well. Moore County is rich and fertile. It is your credit. It's a pity that you haven't moved your ass in seven years, so you can see that your Byzantine Empire is incompetent. I see that you are a guy with skills. Since the Byzantine Empire is incompetent, it is better to help me! This Moore County is my territory after the war, it is better to help me manage this place, I see…"

    When he said it, he saw that Corinthia just looked at himself and sneered. Manninger knew: "Why, are you not willing?"

    "What do you say?"Corinthia rolled over her eyelids.

“……AlrightManninger sighed: "If you are the kind of person who is willing to surrender, you will not burn the food in the city." ButWhy should you refuse? Byzantine Empire can't use you, but I can reuse you! The Byzantine Empire is unknown. Why are you loyal to these idiots? ”

    Corinthia shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with it. When the empire was founded for a thousand years, when the country was in trouble, there were no one or two loyalists who died! Hey, sir, please kill me. ”

    Manninger looked a bit complicated, looking at Corinthia, with a little respect in his eyes: "Do you have any requirements?"

    Corinthia laughed: "Thirsty, the bowl of water comes."

    Manninger waved, and someone immediately sent a bowl of water. Corinthia drank and said, "Slow! Put a fire for a night, burn it dry, this water is cool! I never thought that drinking water would be so refreshing! ”

    He threw the bowl and looked up at Manninger: "Thank you!" The second request, please be sure to cut my head and hang it on the wall! ”

    “Why?”Manninger sighed: "You make me respect, even if you are going to die, I will leave you all."

    "No! Please hang me first! ”Corinthia smiled proudly: "My head is hanging on the wall, because I have to see you Odin people in the future…How to get in, how will you lose! Don't you dare! ”

    Manninger snorted, laughing, showing a baleful aura, waving and saying: "Go! Cut him, his head hangs on the gate of Mesta City! ”

    A few Odin people rushed over like a wolf, and Corinthia smiled, no fear, turned around, and stood tall, striding out!

    After Corinthia went out, Manninger turned and walked back a few steps, sitting down heavily, and the baleful aura on his face converges, but gradually revealed a touch of complexity and emotion.

    Not long after, someone came back, Corinthia had already beheaded, and his head had been hung above the gate.

    HeWhat did you say before you died? ”

    The person replying whispered: "No…Just, he cut his head down, but he was blind. ”

    Manninger looked cold and waved: "Know it, go out."

    After a moment, the Pashak patriarch was sitting alone in the account, but suddenly sighed.

“……When the country is founded for a thousand years, when the country is in trouble, there are no one or two loyalists who will die! ”He savored this sentence and sighed in a low voice: "Say good! HumThis road to Nanzheng is probably not as simple as I thought. ”

……

    A few years later, Ms. Ao, a disciple of the empire of the empire, Carvesylver, wrote a description of the war of the Odin invasion. In a text entitled "The Afterglow of the Last Dynasties," she wrote about the invasion of the Odin. The first time I broke the heavy city was written like this:

“……In the city of Kashta, the Empire of the Empire, the Empire Overseer Corinthia Lord burned the grain of the city, captured the captives, captured the enemy, and the Corinthia Lord refused, and died generously, and the head was hung on the gate for ten days. Lord has been in power for seven years, and the people of Moore County are deeply impressed by their morality. At the time of the spring, the grass eagle flew, Lord's head hung on the castle floor, there were birds foraging, the people in the city please take the head and bury, the enemy is not allowed, the people in the city spontaneously stay behind the city, day and night, take the slingshot to shoot the birds, not 啄Eat the first of Lord, not for a few days. Later generations shed tears. ”
