Conquest

    Chapter 399 [Greater Ambition]

    Although the news of the victory and Shaar's deliberate arrogance, the heart of the military and the people's hearts have been shaken, and even once again set off a wave of enrollment in the army.

    However, under Green's warning, Shaar still ordered that no recruits be recruited for the time being.

    The reason is simple: your own territory can raise too many troops. For now, for Shaar, which has only half a county, feeding two Armys is already a very scary proportion.

    Unlike the joys and enthusiasm among the people, the newly established Northern Army has quietly implemented a set of strategies to tighten itself.

    The first Army, who had just joined the army, had been secretly mobilized. The military camp outside Denzel City had almost every day a commanding army riding a fast horse. On the road to Mesta, there are also a large number of messengers rushing.

    Although he gave the Odin a blow, but whether it is Shaar or Green, it is clear that this loss is far from being awkward for Manninger and Red Snow. And eating this small loss of Manninger, what will be difficult to say next.

    No matter what, the small new group of Shaar has been nervously preparing for the war.

    The first Army of the Northern Military Region transferred three Flag Battalions to the south, and the **Cavalry Army also began to move. More than 10,000 troops have been marching to the south, stationed in the southern part of Moore County, and armed along the central roads of the two rivers, ready to respond to the red skiing of the Red Snow.

    Shaar's family is not thick. In order to cope with this situation, the logistics chief Kato almost put his life together. In the two months of breathing time, almost all the arrows and armor of the inventory that was produced are almost allotted. Among the first line of troops.

    The area controlled by Shaar had to announce the continuation of the food rationing system. The prohibition of alcohol was extended indefinitely, and almost all the materials and food that could be mobilized were given priority to the army.

    At this critical time, the people of Moore County did not complain at all, and even more encouraged by the previous victory, people are still willing to bite their teeth to survive this difficult time.

    Just after about fifteen days, the south was surprisingly quiet. The result of a large number of scouts reported, there is no news of the Red Snow Army.

    As if Manninger had eaten this small loss, he really swallowed it.

    In this case, both Shaar and Green are mixed.

    The good news is that as long as the Odin people don't go north, they can fight for more breathing time. Now that their own side is too weak, they must strive for sufficient time to recuperate and continue to expand their strengths. In the future, they will have the capital and Odin. war.

    Worry is that such an unusual situation is not necessarily a good thing – Manninger is a rare male character among the Odin people. It is also a person who is resolute and courageous and has no strategy. Such a loss, he can bear it, only I am afraid that there are more different ideas!

    Sure enough, after waiting for a few days in Shaar, the secret agent who came back from the south finally brought back an amazing news!

    Just about eight days before the news was sent to Shaar, Manninger pro-cleared the Red Sun Army with an elite of about 30,000, and finally conquered the capital city of the Corsican Military Region!

    The process of the battle was full of drama: Manninger first made a retreat gesture, deliberately the General team quickly evacuated from the battlefield, and made a rush to withdraw. And the defenders in the city, under the leadership of the second son of Corsica Governor, rushed out of the city to pursue, the result of the ambush of Manninger. 20,000 Corsican troops were ambushed, most of them were killed and injured, and the rest surrendered.

    Only the second son of Corsica Governor fled with a dozen rides and went to the unknown.

    Manninger immediately returned with a blow. This time, in the face of an empty city, the Odin people did not spend much more effort. The capital city of the Corsican Military District was slammed down! The Governor of the Corsican Military District broke through and was eventually captured by Odin in the breakout. Most of the officials in the Governor’s office surrendered.

    Manninger ordered the captivity of the Corsican military area to be captive, and then officially took over the Corsican military region. After the surrender of the Corsican Governor was sent to various places, most of the remaining Kosijasi military districts announced the surrender of the local army. However, in two or three days, most of the territory of the Corsican military region is passed down!

    The Corsican Military Region is one of the traditional forces among the fifty-four Terma military regions of the Empire. The rich family, the materials and wealth accumulated over the years, all the tribes into the pocket of Manninger! Let Odin Red Snow suddenly get a great supplement! It is said that when the city of Corsica was destroyed, the weapons, armor, weapons, etc. seized by the Odin people piled up like mountains! These are the homes that have been accumulated for several generations of Corsica Governor!

    The surviving Corsican army is also full of 20,000 people.

    This time, Manninger didn't exercise the bloody and cruel wrists. Instead of dealing with the war prisoner like the Seven Army of Byzantine Empire, he collected all the two tens of thousands of troops and appointed a small number of Odin tribal leaders and a small number of Odin. The army supervised and controlled, and then used the two tens of thousands of troops to take their own use.

    Finally, Manninger made a surprising move! He actually moved his command post to Governor's Capital, the capital of the Corsican Military District!

    This move is tantamount to officially and thoroughly annexing the Corsican military region!

    With this victory, Manninger and Chi Xuejun suddenly became famous in the mainland! Manninger doubled the area and population of his occupation control! Also seized a lot of supplies and food!

    He directly controlled the land and population of the two counties, and recruited 20,000 Corsican troops. He was strong, and he was in the northern part of the Byzantine Empire, overlooking many military areas in the south!

    For a time, after the news spread, it was not just Shaar that was shaken…

    Byzantine's warlord party red round table was originally a group like the general. In this civil war, almost all warlord parties stood in a camp, and there was no doubt that the Corsica military region was also a member of the rebel camp, and although they did not have much direct military siege of Osgiliath, as members of the Red Roundtable, they still supported the massive materiel and military spending of the rebel forces on the front lines, Also pricked up the flag response!

    In the spirit of the co-prosperous covenant issued by the red round table, one of the allies was directly destroyed by the foreign forces, and the whole family was swallowed up…Moreover, this foreign power is still coming to the door with its own hands…

    The fact that the resurgence of the Rebel Alliance in the Red Round Table has brought about shocks and influences is multifaceted.

    When the Odin people came to the south, the purpose of the rebel alliance was simple. It was to deal with the three central loyalty Royal families stationed in the northern part of the empire, the Army, the 6th Army and the seventh Army, and the trusted aide Rhodelia Army! Using the Odin's army to contain the regular army of the three loyal empire Royal Family, and then the rebels gathered in large numbers to besiege Osgiliath, so that there is no need to worry about the army of the royalist faction threatening the rear nest behind them.

    It can be said that this strategic goal is basically achieved: the Red Snow Army annihilated the seventh Army, and the Hasting Black Flag Army solved the 6th Army. Only Rhodelia Army gave up the station to travel thousands of miles to participate in Imperial Capital.

    But at least, the rebels can safely continue to add troops to besiege Osgiliath without any worries.

    The Odin people reached an agreement. According to the judgment of the Red Round Table, how can the land of the three or four counties in the north meet the greedy Odin people? Moreover, those Odin barbarians do not have political policies, so a large piece of land, they have to spend a lot of time to eat. Even the inside of the rebels is not the one who has the idea of ​​overthrowing the Royal Family and having a chance, and then rushing back those stupid and savage Odin people.

    The problem is…The current situation is greatly out of the expectations of the Red Roundtable!

    Manninger, who actually attacked his allies? ! Such a move is tantamount to tearing up the secret covenant between the Odin and the red round table! This is a practice of betrayal!

    What is even more worrying is that since Odin dare to annex the Corsican military region, then…Since all have turned their faces, what will this Manninger do? Will it be greedy after the Corsican military region, and continue to aim at the rear nests of other rebel military regions? !

    Even Manninger doesn't do this…However, the Odin people invaded the south but there are three legions! Where is the Black Flag Army Hasting, and whether the Odin Royal Army on the Western Front will be inspired by Manninger's actions, and raise the butcher's knife…

    At this moment, many members of the rebel coalition have sent elite troops to Osgiliath. The strength of staying in the old nest cannot be said to be weak…But don't forget, the Corsicans are all in the old nest, and they are all thrown away by Manninger!

    In the rebel alliance, when I got this amazing news, I suddenly fell into a subtle silence! Actually, nothing has been done!

    Only the savvy talents understand that the rebels are not not responding, but in the face of such a huge change, the internal dispute has become a mess!

    The interior of the red round table split into at least three different positions on the issue of responding to this matter.

    Some military districts headed by Armenia Governor Hughes, because their territories and nests are not in the north, and are not under the threat of the Odin people, so they strongly advocate continuing to besiege Osgiliath, and even think that the Odin people can temporarily adopt a strategy of delay and tolerance.

    And a group of members headed by Red Round Table Director El Salvador, because of the decent of the Red Round Table Alliance, is strongly demanding a tough and rigorous response to the Odin's perfidy practice! If this time is weak, then I am afraid that the Odin will be insatiable. In the future, these guys will only be more greedy and will stick their claws to other places. In the long run, once the Byzantine Royal Family is overthrown and the new forces are established, the various military regions will become a kingdom. In the future, collective alliances will be held against the Odin. It must not be too Being weak can be bullied.

    The third position is that some old nests are not far from the north and are directly threatened by the Odin army. These rebel members have shaken up, and many people even think that they should withdraw their troops back to their homes to protect themselves. Their roots are in the lair, if once the nest is dangerous, then the frontline of the army, family and relatives of the property are in the territory of the military region, only afraid of the armed forces will immediately collapse-in fact, do not have to wait for that time, now the Odin people captured the Corsica military region, near the rebel army of several military regions, There has been a commotion of varying degrees.

    The three parties were noisy, and for a full two days they could not compete for a result.

    Finally, on the third day after receiving the news, the Red Roundtable finally came up with a way to reluctantly accept it for the majority of people – or, this is not a way to do it…

    protest

    Or to put it bluntly, it is to first test the Odin people's current reaction attitude and the next step.

    El Salvador, Hughes governor, and the military Region Governor jointly signed a solemn protest against the Odin Empire by a red Roundtable, and then sent the protest to the Odin empire through secret emergency channels, through the emergency transmission of the magic Transmission array, The document, the equivalent of the state of the book, was quickly sent to the Odin Empire.

    On this protest, members of the Red Roundtable collectively protested against such treacherous actions by the captain Manninger of the Odin Empire's red-snow army, and claimed that such a move seriously damaged the historical friendly and cooperative relations between the Red Roundtable and the Odin Empire, Seriously hurt everyone to build a difficult friendship, and hurt the interests of the members of the Red Roundtable! In the long run, the Red Roundtable asked the Odin Empire to immediately order the Red Dragons on the front line to stop the aggression of the allies, and return the occupied Corsican military area, release the war prisoner, and specifically demand that the prisoners be unconditionally released. Corsica Governor.

    This document, equivalent to a book-level document, was sent to the Odin Empire and was said to have soon appeared in a cold and spacious stone temple in the Imperial City of Odin.

    This is a stone temple with a hundred steps and a hundred steps. The spacious hall can accommodate at least a thousand people.

    The rugged style of the Odin Empire architecture is unmistakable here. There are no golden walls on the walls, it is the true color of the huge rock that has been cut squarely! It looks black, heavy and hard!

    On the huge windows, large windows with a few meters high are covered with huge red curtains…This is dyed red with some kind of animal skin.

    Red curtains, black walls, mixed colors, give a very irony taste!

    There are all kinds of heavy weapon, hammer, hammer, hammer, giant sword, heavy axe hanging on the wall…

    In the middle of the big house, on a iron table cast with pure iron, in a wooden plate, the "national book" is lying there quietly, but it has been pulled into a ball!

    In the middle of the room, a tall stalwart figure stands there, and the wide shoulders seem to be able to lift a mountain. The whole body is seen from the back, almost an amazing inverted triangle shape, and the lines and proportions give rise to one. Amazing combination of symmetry and power!

    A powerful palm, slowly placed a wide-blade sword on the table, and then gently wiped the wet sweat on the hilt.

    "Hmph!"Manninger, the guy is so courageous, he can't think of him to dare to make such a decision, and tore the Byzantine rebels without my consent. ”

    A cold voice rang in the hall, as if to talk to himself.

    This sound sounds full of a cold metal, thick, indifferent, hard! Although he talked to himself, the sound came out, but it seemed to be fluctuating with some kind of power, and the weapons that hung on the wall were creaking.

“……Originally, I was going to swear by Manninger's arbitrarily acting, but the reaction of these Byzantine people is like this…Then I can not only punish Manninger, but I will reward him greatly. ”

……

…………

    The restless red round table finally waited for the reply from the Odin Empire.

    Actually, this reply is the supreme slogan of the Odin empire, and is recognized as the original book of Emperor Odin of today's first human powerhouse!

    But when El Salvador, and the heads of the rebel alliances such as Hughes Governor, started this Emperor Odin's personal return, everyone was stunned.

    Because this book is actually just a return to their previous letter of protest, but at the end of the following, the legendary Odin Supreme wrote a sentence that is a reply.

    "So much nonsense! Want the land, lead the troops to get it! ”

    A rebel leader: "………"

……

…………

    "Manninger this guy…I think we all missed him. ”

    In Denzel City's City Office, the core figures of Shaar's Majesty are mostly gathered, and the people who are standing in front of everyone are talking about a thin, delicate, pale-faced young man, Rheinhardt.

    Rheinhardt frowned and said: "Before we all thought that he might not really dare to do things so absolutely. After all, Odin people invaded this way, we can judge, they must collude with the rebels. Can Manninger just stand up and dare to swallow Corsican…There are hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of the rebels. Originally, we all believed that the battle between the Red Snow Army and the Corsican Army might end under the mediation of both sides, and most Corsican people suffered some losses…Can Mannant actually dare to do so, this knife is equal to the waist of the rebel alliance! ”

“……This, I think this Manninger may be too rude. ”

    It is Phillips who spoke differently.

    Since Shaar was truly led to trusted aide, Phillips' confidence has grown to a greater extent, and he has gradually dared to show himself more in this core group.

    He looked at Rheinhardt and frowned. "I think it is Manninger's mistake. Although he got the land population of the Corsican military region, he still has a military, but…The rebels will not be so, even if they want to maintain the unity of their internal alliance, they must also intervene. Once the rebel coalition sent troops to deal with Manninger, then the Odin people were a big army and stay away from home…I’m afraid…"

    Rheinhardt looked at Phillips and said, "I admit that what you said makes sense, but…You think so, even the inside of the rebel alliance has always thought so, so because of this dependence, they have not really worried that Odin people dare to turn their faces! Before the interference between Manninger and Corsican, the rebels also sent people to mediate, because they could not think of Manninger, he really dared to directly destroy a military region. So…I only said Manninger, we stunned him! Everyone thought that he didn't dare, but he did it – it was the best time to swallow all of Corsica's territory before someone intervened to stop it! ”

    "But now the rebel alliance sends troops…"

    "The rebel alliance will never send troops!"The rhythm of Rheinhardt was so powerful that it interrupted Phillips.

    The young General’s face was absolutely utterly, and there was deep anxiety in the eyebrows. He turned his head and stared at Shaar with a gaze: “Lord, I suddenly worried about a more important thing!”

    Deeply breathed, Rheinhardt's tone was extremely serious and dignified.

    "I am worried that Manninger's self-proclaimed move will suddenly awaken the ambitions of the Odin Empire!"His eyes are full of uneasiness: "Before this, the rebel alliance, the Odin empire, even us, there is such a thought in my heart: Odin people are going south, nothing more than holding us The civil strife is cheap, giving them up to a few counties of land and population. Right? I believe that not only the rebels think so, but the Odin people think so, even the people here, I am afraid that I have always thought about it all the time! ”

    Speaking of this, Rheinhardt suddenly raised his voice and said: "In fact, we are all wrong! Manninger's action is a signal! Even a powerful signal that awakens the domestic up and down of the Odin Empire! The meaning behind this signal, have you thought about it? ActuallyOdin people and us are wrong! We all looked down on this crisis! Odin people are actually fully capable of getting more this time! In fact, the crisis that our empire is caught in is far deeper and heavier than what our eyes see! Odin people…If they dare to venture into it, then they may even be able to take advantage of this opportunity to completely ruin our empire! It’s not just the occupation of a few counties! Yes, if they dare to gamble, dare to take risks, and dare to invest…Everyone thinks about it carefully, we really have the possibility of ruining the country and even the demise of the nation! And Manninger…I doubt this guy, have you seen this, so he dared to make such a big move! His action is likely to awaken Odin's domestic ambitions! In particular:The lord of the gods who are known as the mainland's first! ”
