Conquest

Chapter 397

Although the news of the victory and the arrogant intentions created by Xia Haihai made the army's heart and the people's hearts rekindled, it even set off a wave of enlistment.

However, under Green's warning, Xia still ordered the temporary absence of recruits.

The reason is simple: You can't support too many troops on your own site. For the time being, for Xia, who owns only half of the county, feeding two regiments is already an extremely scary ratio.

Unlike the joy and encouragement among the people, the newly formed Northern Corps has quietly implemented a set of tactics of loosening and tightening.

The newly formed first corps had been secretly mobilized. Almost every day in the barracks outside Denzel, commanders of the army were riding on fast horses. On the road to Mesta City, there were also a large number of messengers rushing.

Although it severely gave the Odin a small blow, whether it is Charlie or Green, it is very clear that this loss is far from a scar for Manninger and the Red Snow Army. Move bones. Manninger who ate this little loss. What will happen next is hard to say.

No matter what. The small nascent group in the whole of Asia has been nervously preparing for the war.

The First Military Corps of the Northern Military Region ordered three flag regiments to be ordered to the south, and the independent cavalry regiment also began to move. Over 10,000 troops went to the south one after another, stationed in the south of County More, armed along the central roads of two rivers, ready to respond to the Red Snow Army's massive northward movement.

Xia ’s family is not thick. In order to cope with this situation, the chief logistics officer Cato almost killed his old life. The two months of breathing time were in the throne of God Seal. Almost all the arrows and armors produced by the inventory were allocated to the first-line troops.

In the area controlled by Xia, it is necessary to announce the continuation of the food rationing system. The prohibition on alcohol is extended indefinitely. Almost all small food items that can be mobilized are given priority to the army.

At this critical time. The people of More County have no complaints at all, and they are more encouraged by this small victory. People are still willing to grit their teeth to survive the crisis.

About fifteen days later, the south was surprisingly quiet. The results of a large number of scouts spilled out, but no news of Chi Xuejun going north.

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

Such a clear situation made Charlie and Green both mixed.

The good news is that as long as the Odin people do n’t go north, they can fight for more respite. The Seal of the Seal of God. Now they have too little foundation. ”The Seal of the Seal of God must fight for sufficient time for rest and recuperation. Only have the capital to fight the Odin.

Worrying is that such an unusual situation is not necessarily a good thing. Manninger is a rare hero in the Odin. He is also resolute and bold, and has no shortage of strategies. He couldn't bear it, I'm afraid it had more ideas!

Sure enough, after Xia waited for many days, the spy who returned from the south finally brought back amazing news!

About eight days before the news was delivered to the throne of the Seal of God in the time of Charia, Manninger personally led the Chixue Army's main force to be about 30,000, and finally captured the capital city of the Corsica Military Region!

The fighting process was full of drama: Manninger first made a retreat gesture, deliberately withdrew the army from the battlefield, and made a rush to withdraw. And the garrison in the city. Led by the second son of the Governor of Corsica, he rushed out of the city to pursue, and as a result Manninger was ambushed. 20,000 Corsican troops were ambushed, most of them were injured and wounded, and the rest surrendered.

Only the second son of the Governor of Corsica escaped with a dozen riders and fled to an unknown destination.

Manninger immediately returned to the army and this time, in the face of the empty city, the Odin did not spend much effort, and the capital city of the Corsica military region was slammed down! The governor of the Corsica Military Region failed to break through and was eventually captured by Odin in the breakout. Most of the officials of the Governor's House surrendered.

Manninger ordered the Governor of the Corsica Military Region to be imprisoned, and then formally took over the Corsica Military Region. After the Corsica Governor's surrender documents were sent to each, most of the remaining small local military units in the Corsica Military Region announced their surrender. It took almost two or three days to seal the throne, and most of the territory of the Corsica Military Region. , Pass down!

The Corsica Military Region is one of the traditional forces in the Empire's 54 Tema Military Regions. The rich family base, the materials and wealth accumulated over the years, all fell into Manninger's pocket! Let Odin Chixue Army be greatly supplemented immediately! It is said that when the city of Corsica was breached, the ordnance, grain, armor, weapons, and other things seized by the Odins were piled up! These are the things that the Corsican Governor has accumulated for generations!

The surrendered Corsican army also had at least 20,000 people.

This time, Manninger no longer exercised his **** and brutal wrists, and did not kill the prisoners of war as he did with the Seventh Byzantine Empire. Instead, he collected all the 20,000 troops and appointed a small number of Odin tribal leaders and a small Odin ’s army supervised and controlled, and then took the 20,000 troops down for its own use.

In the end, Manninger made a startling move! He actually relocated his command post to the Governor's Mansion in the Corsica Military Region!

This move is equivalent to the formal and complete annexation of the Corsica Military Region!

With this victory, Manninger and Chi Xuejun suddenly became famous on the mainland! Manninger doubled the area and population under his control! Also captured a lot of material forage!

He directly controlled the land and population equivalent to the two counties, and recruited 20,000 Corsican troops. He was powerful and based on the northern Byzantine Empire, overlooking many military regions to the south!

For a while, after the news spread, it was n’t just Charya that was shaken by the news. ”Byzantine warlords’ red round table. It was originally a league-like group. In this civil war, almost all warlords Standing in one camp, there is no doubt that the Corsica Military Region is also a member of the rebel camp. Although they did not directly have many troops to besiege Osglia, they still supported the frontline as members of the Red Round Table. The large amount of supplies and military expenses of the rebel coalition forces also raised the rebel flag in response!

In the spirit of the co-prosperity and shame of the red round tablecloth, one of the allies was directly destroyed by the external forces, and the whole family was swallowed up. Moreover, the external forces came to the door by themselves.

Such a fact given to the inside of the rebel alliance of the Red Round Table

At first, the Odins were brought south. The purpose of the rebel alliance was simple. It was to deal with the three Central Standing Regiments, Sixth and Seventh Regiments, and the Rodría Regiment, which were stationed in the northern Ping Kingdom. !! Use the Odin army to hold down these three regular troops loyal to the imperial royal family, and then the rebels rallied to siege Osgiriya, so there is no need to worry about the army of the royal family threatening the old nest behind them.

It can be said that this strategic objective was basically achieved: the Red Snow Army annihilated the Seventh Corps. The Black Flag of Hastings solved the Sixth Corps. Only the Rhoderian Corps gave up the station and rushed to support the capital.

But at least, the rebels can safely continue to increase their forces to besiege Osglia without worries.

An agreement was reached with the Odins. According to the judgment of the Red Round Table, how could the land in the three or four counties in the north meet the greedy Odins? Moreover, those Odin savages have no political strategy, so if they want to eat a large area of ​​land, it will take them a long time to seal the throne. Not even the rebels have the idea that the royal family will be overthrown first, and then there will be opportunities. Just drive those stupid and brutal Odin back.

The problem is, "The situation of Jing is far beyond the expectations of the red round table!

Manninga. Guy, actually attacked his allies? !! Such a move is tantamount to blatantly tearing up the secret covenant between the Odins and the Red Round Table! This is a betrayal!

What is even more worrying is that since Odin dared to annex the Corsica Military Region, then, now that he has turned his face, what else will this Manninger do? Will it get after the Corsica Military Region. Insufficient greed, continue to aim Kai's eyes at the old nests behind other rebel military regions? !!

Even if Manninger did n’t do it, ”the Odins invaded south, but there were three legions! Where is the Black Flag Army Hastings, and will the Oding Royal Legion on the western front be subject to Manninger ’s? The Kai that he did also raised his butcher knife,

Many members of the rebel alliance have dispatched their elite troops to Osgiriya. Although the strength of staying behind Lao Chao cannot be said to be weak, but do n’t forget, the Corsicans are all in the Lao Chao, and all were defeated by Manninger! Rebel Alliance, when receiving this amazing news, Suddenly, the throne of the Seal of God was suddenly caught in a subtle loss of voice! No one was able to respond!

Only those who have a keen sense of smell understand that the rebels have not failed to respond, but faced with such a huge change, they have already quarreled into a mess!

The interior of the Red Round Table has split into at least three different positions on how to deal with this matter.

Some military regions, which are governed by Armenian Governor Hughes, are strongly urged to continue the siege of Osgilia because their territories and nests are not in the north and are not under the threat of the Odins. It even thought that a delay and tolerance strategy could be adopted for the Odins temporarily.

And the Red Round Table only has a group of members who are only Salvador. Because they want to maintain the decentness of the Red Round Table Alliance, they strongly demand a tough and harsh response to this betrayal of the Odins! If it is weak at this time, then I am afraid that the Odins will have to make inroads. Then these guys will be more greedy and stretch their claws elsewhere. In the long run, once the Byzantine royal family was overthrown. The new forces established, then each military region will become a kingdom. In the future, it will still be a collective alliance against the Odins. It must not be too weak and deceiving at this time.

The third position is that some old nests are not far from the north and are directly threatened by the soldiers of the Odin army. These rebel members have shaken one after another, and many even think that it is time to withdraw their troops to return to their nests in order to protect themselves. Your roots are in the old nest, if once the old nest is in danger. Then the soldiers on the front line, family members and relatives' property are in the military territory. I am afraid that the military heart will immediately collapse. In fact, it is not necessary to wait for that time. In the army. There have been riots of varying degrees.

These three parties were noisy, and for two days, the Seal of the Seal of God had not been able to reach a result.

Finally, the third day after getting the news. The red round table finally came up with a solution that was barely acceptable to most people, or it was a method that could not be regarded as a solution.

protest!

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

El Salvador, Governor Hughes. And the military district governors jointly signed a red round table protest letter to Yin Zheng of the Odin Empire, and then sent the protest book to the Odin Empire through secret emergency channels. A national equivalent document was quickly sent to the Odin Empire.

In this protest book, the members of the Red Round Table joined forces to collectively protest such atrocious acts by the Odin Empire Red Snow Army Corps Manninger, and claimed that such a move seriously damaged the Red Round Table and the Odin Empire. The friendly and cooperative relationship between the two sides has seriously hurt everyone's difficult friendship and the interests of the members of the Red Round Table! For long-term consideration, the Red Round Table demanded that the Odin Empire immediately order the frontline Red Snow Army to stop this kind of aggression against its allies, return the occupied Corsican military lands, and release prisoners of war. It also specifically required that the captive Corsican governor must be released unconditionally.

After being transferred to the Odin empire, this national equivalent document was said to soon appear in an icy and spacious stone hall in the Odin Imperial City.

This is a stone hall with a hundred steps wide and a hundred steps long. In the spacious hall, it can hold at least thousands of people.

The rough ore style of the building of the Odin Empire is undoubted here, there is no brilliant decoration on the wall, it is exactly the nature of the huge rock that has been cut squarely! It looks dark. Thick and hard!

And huge windows, a few meters tall. Enclosed by a huge red curtain, this was dyed red with some kind of animal skin.

Red curtains, black walls, such colors mix together, giving a very irony taste!

On the wall are various heavy weapons, sledgehammers, prism hammers, chain hammers, giant swords, and more ...

In the center of this big house, there is an iron platform cast with pure iron. The "Guo Shu is lying there quietly, but it does not confuse the sutras!"

In the center of the room, a tall and mighty figure stood there. The wide shoulders seemed to be able to stand up a mountain, and the whole body looked from behind. It is almost an amazing inverted triangle shape, with its lines and proportions creating a sense of amazing balance and perfect combination of power!

With a strong palm, slowly put a wide-bladed sword on the table, and then gently wipe the wet sweat on the sword handle.

"Hum" Manninger's courage really didn't want him to dare to make such a decision, and torn the faces of the Byzantine rebels without my consent. "

A cold voice sounded in the hall. As if talking to himself.

The sound sounded full of a cold metal feeling, thick, cold, hard! Although talking to himself. But the voice came out, as if with some kind of power fluctuation, the weapons hanging on the wall were buzzing.

"I was going to scold Manninger for his unauthorized actions, but what happened to these Byzantines?" Then I could not only punish Manninger, but reward him greatly. "The restless red round table finally awaited a reply from the Odin Empire.

Actually, this reply was written by Her Majesty Odin, the supreme Majesty of the Odin Empire, who is considered to be the strongest human being today.

But as El Salvador, and Governor Hughes and other rebel alliance brains unfolded this written reply from Emperor Odin, everyone stopped.

Because this reply was actually just sending back the protest letter they had before. It is only at the end below that the legendary Odin supreme wrote a word that was a reply.

"So much nonsense! Want the land, lead your own soldiers to get it!"

A group of rebel brains:

"Manninger, I think we all underestimated him."

In the parliament hall of the city guard house of Denzel City, most of Her Majesty's core characters are gathered, and standing in front of everyone is talking eloquently, a thin and handsome young man with a pale face

Reinhardt.

Reinhardt raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Before we all thought that he might not dare to do such a great job, after all, the Odins invaded this time. We can all judge that they must collude with the rebels. But before Manninger stood firm, he dared to swallow Corsica. "There are hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of the rebels. Originally we all thought. Battle of the Red Snow Army and the Corsican Army. Perhaps it will end under the mediation of the two sides. At most, the Corsicans will suffer some losses. "But Manninger dared to do such a great job. This sword is equivalent to hitting the rebel alliance directly!"

"Hey," I think this Manninger might be too reckless. "

It is Philip who expresses a different point of view.

Since being truly confided by Charya, Philip's confidence has become more full, and he has gradually dared to show himself in this core group.

He looked at Rheinhardt and frowned, "I think it was Manninger who was ill-advised. Although he had fallen from the land population in the Corsica Military Region, the rebels wouldn't even do that. Even if it was In order to maintain the unity of their internal alliance, they must also intervene. Once the rebel alliance sends troops to deal with Manninger, then the Odins are an army far away from home. I ’m afraid. "

Reinhardt glanced at Philip: "I admit that you make sense, but" you think so, even the inside of the rebel alliance has always thought so, because they have this reliance, they have never really worried about Odin People dare to turn their faces! The friction between Manninger and the Corsicans had even hit a lot before, and the rebel alliance also sent people to mediate. Because they couldn't think of Manninger, he really dared to destroy a military area directly. That's why I said Manninger, we despised him! Everyone thought he didn't dare. But this was just the best time for him to do it before someone intervened to stop it. All of Corsica! "

"But now that the rebel alliance is sending troops,"

"The Rebel Alliance will never send troops!" Rinhart said in a strong voice, interrupting Philip's words with a firm voice.

The face of the young general was absolutely utter, and there was deep anxiety in Mei Yu, and he turned his head. Staring sharply at Charya: "Sir, I suddenly worry that something more important is coming!"

Taking a deep breath, Rheinhardt's tone was extremely solemn and solemn.

"I'm worried that this self-assertive move by UU Kanshu www.uukansu.com Manninger will suddenly awaken the ambitions of the Odin Empire at home and abroad!" His eyes were filled with anxiety: "Before that, the rebel alliance also Okay. The Odin Empire is so good, even people like us have the idea in mind: This time the Odin people go south, just to take advantage of our internal disturbances and take up a few counties for them. Shidi and the population. Right? I believe not only the rebels think so, the Odin people think so, even everyone here, I am afraid they have always thought so! "

Speaking of this, Rinhart suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "In fact, we were all wrong! This action by Manninger was a signal! It was even a powerful signal that awakened the up and down of the Odin Empire! This signal The meaning behind it, have you thought about it? Actually, "Odin and we are wrong! We all underestimated this crisis! The Odins are actually fully capable of getting more this time! In fact, the crisis of our empire is much deeper and heavier than we can see! Odin, if they dare to take risks, then they may even be able to take this opportunity to completely destroy our empire in one fell swoop! It's not just the occupation. Shire so little interest! Yes, if they dare to gamble, take risks, and dare to invest, "Let's think about it carefully. We really have the possibility of national destruction or even national destruction! And Manninger, I doubt this guy. Did you also see this? That ’s why he dared to make such a big move! His action is likely to awaken Odin ’s domestic ambitions! In particular, His Majesty the Emperor, who is said to be the first in the mainland!
