Chapter 405 there is always some According to Sogher's description, there were about 500 exiles from the Corsican Military District, including the remnants of the defeated generals, a small number of whom were officials and senior generals at all levels in the former governor's palace, of course, all of whom were from the line of the pro-Gaia princes, and there were about 300 other guards, because the escapees were all cavalry, so they were temporarily organized into a cavalry regiment.
The commander is still Sogher, and from this point of view, this Soguer should be quite a capable person.
To Char's surprise, according to Sogher's own statement, he himself was not Gaia's descendant, but Sogel was originally the descendant of the eldest prince Cardoso.
As a high-ranking general, but the head of the civil service system, Cardoso, can only say that this general still has some ideas of primogeniture in his head.
However, he does have some skills, and he seems to be upright, so after Cardoso's death, Gaia became the only heir to the governor, and this general Sogel chose to support Gaia From this point of view, this guy is either the kind of person who is good at seeing the wind and steering the rudder, or the kind of guy who is right about things and not people, and has a righteous heart, in general, Char thinks that this Sogel should be the latter.
After Sogel served Gaia, he was not reused by Gaia at the beginning, after all, the second son of the governor may not be so broad-minded, but after the formation of the Corsican Governor's Palace, the descendants and generals under his command were killed and wounded, and when there was no one in his hands, Gaia had to reuse the only remaining good general in the Corsican Military Region, although this so-called "reuse" was only to hand over the remaining 300 cavalry to the commander of Sogel.
However, this decision was considered the smartest thing Gaia did in his life, and it saved his life After fleeing to the Besta Military Region, Corsica's political axe in exile experienced a short honeymoon period with the Besta Military District, and the legendary governor's wife treated the political axe in exile favorably, but these benefits, suddenly overnight, changed dramatically On the front line of Osgilia, the group of the Red Round Table quickly issued a statement to Odin, although the wording of that statement was quite tough, but such so-called toughness was limited to words such as "serious protest" or "hurt the feelings of both parties" in words and words, although it seemed to be tough, but even an idiot would understand that relying on this kind of rhetoric to scare the Odin God Emperor who was far away in the north, the strongest man in the continent This kind of behavior is simply flattering to the blind As for the Red Round Table, there was no real action, not even a simple military move, not even to ask the allies close to the north to mobilize their troops and horses, and to make it look like a threat to the Corsican military district.
Several allies in the northern military districts are still stepping up their efforts to reorganize their troops, but they continue to send large quantities of military supplies and troops to the direction of Osgilia.
Even the Besta Military District, which was geographically closest to Manninger, did nothing, and the Governor's wife had ordered the infantry of the two flag regiments to assemble towards the border, but it was only two flag regiments, and the gesture was only to prevent Manninger from having too much appetite and sneaking up on him.
Everyone knows that with the strength of the two flag regiments, it may be enough to just hold the checkpoint, but if you want to fight back, it is a joke at all.
There was no news from the Red Round Table in favor of the Corsican exile that there was still a wrangling and argument among themselves, and no conclusion had ever been reached.
But overall, it seems difficult to make a tough stance on Odin within the Red Roundtable.
Now that they were besieging Osgilia, and the Landis had joined forces with the Byzantine royal family to establish a naval blockade, the Landis were said to have assembled a fleet ready to sail to the Byzantine Inland Sea.
Landis's internal business with the Red Roundtable Alliance's normal ordnance supplies has been completely suspended.
At this time, the Landis people have undoubtedly stood on the opposite side of the Red Round Table, and if they tear their faces with the Odin and become enemies of the other two powers in this world at the same time, such a decision will probably shake even the most assertive Speaker of El Salvador in the Red Round Table.
The Red Round Table has not made a clear statement on the issue of the disposal of the political axe in exile in Corsica, and even according to human feelings, there is no nominal source of sound or material aid for show.
The Red Round Table seemed to suddenly become deaf and dumb, completely ignoring the existence of this little political axe in exile.
In this case, the attitude of the Besta Military Region, which was originally full of enthusiasm, immediately cooled down.
The Governor's wife, who had been visiting every day, had suddenly disappeared.
Although the frequency of every day is still constantly sent, it is only when Gaia goes to see the governor's wife again, she is blocked from the door of the governor's palace, and the other party either says that the governor's wife is not in the palace, or answers that the governor's wife has something to go out.
After two or three times in a row, Gaia also muttered in her heart.
And Sogher was keenly aware of some undesirable changes.
The first is the change of the city defense units in the capital city of the Besta Military District.
A regiment of cavalry banners came outside the city.
Although it was claimed that it was to prevent the Odin from invading south, this cavalry regiment was ordered to be transferred to the capital city to strengthen the guard.
This excuse seems to be fine, but Thorgel, with his years of military career, sees that something is wrong.
He made two suggestions to Gaia, but Gaia did not accept them, and in Gaia's opinion, perhaps there was a lack of sincerity in supporting him within the Red Roundtable, even if he was cold, but he would definitely not harm himself.
At this point, Gaia is very confident in her heart.
No matter what, nominally, everyone is still their own people.
But Sogher was getting nervous.
He found that the number of defenders in the city seemed to have increased, especially since the garrison of the Doge's Palace had strengthened the number of at least one infantry regiment.
Immediately, the city defense army kept changing guards, changing back and forth, and the number became more and more.
Then, in the immediate vicinity of the mansion where he was, it was evident that the number of soldiers patrolling the streets and the number of patrols had increased considerably.
The Governor's wife remained silent Finally, Sorgher's repeated remarks made Gaia finally suspicious, and he asked to see the Governor's wife again, and this time, although he still did not see the real person who spoke to the Besta Military Region, the Governor Yuri received him.
Governor Yuri looks like a kind old man, in his fifties he has silver hair, and his spirit is not very good, when he receives Gaia, his attitude is still very gentle, after a while of warm questioning, everyone politely exchanged a cup of tea, when Gaia asked what kind of measures to be taken within the alliance to help him, the kind governor spread his hands, and only said that he is now semi-retired equipment, and most of the official business is handled by his wife, In the past few days, because of the persecution momentum of the Odin, the governor's wife has been busy with the troops in the north, and has already left the city to inspect the military affairs in the north.
Governor Yuri doesn't have a council, and everyone knows about this, so Gaia can't help it.
However, the old governor's kind attitude dispelled Gaia's doubts and concerns.
After coming back, no matter what Sogel said, Gaia couldn't listen to him.
In desperation, Sogel could only do what he could.
First of all, he gathered all the remaining three hundred cavalry, and all of them entered the first level of combat readiness, and began to secretly stock up on food and fresh water, and at the same time warned all the cavalry that their horses must be fed by themselves every day, and not to be handed over to the servants and grooms sent by the Bestas in the mansion.
Then there is the control of food, all the food must be eaten by a special person first, and then everyone eats it again, in case someone poisons it.
Although Sogel is only a soldier, after all, he has also followed the eldest prince Cardoso for many years, the eldest prince is the leader of the civilian system, and the civilian official is good at strategy, and although this general is not good at it, he has heard it and knows it very clearly: there are too many ways to want hundreds of people to disappear silently He even had a vague sense that, judging from the current momentum, the Red Round Table Coalition really couldn't turn the other cheek with the Odin The general himself felt that whether it was from both political and military perspectives, if he was a high-level member of the Red Round Table Alliance, he would not choose to turn against the behemoth of the Odin Empire at such a time, especially since there was no benefit in doing so To offend a powerful enemy in order to help an ally who has been completely destroyed to seek justice, if the Red Round Table really did it, then unless the top groups are all crazy, or even the top are saints Even such a general already understands the truth, but this prince of Gaia still doesn't seem to think of it, or he thinks of it, but in his heart he avoids such a fact, just like a man who has fallen into the water, just staring at the last life-saving straw in front of him, whether it is a straw or a dagger that has stabbed him It happened on a premeditated night.
That night, Gaia was delighted to receive an invitation from the Viceroy's wife and Governor Yuri, who had not yet appeared, and it was clearly written that a banquet was set up in the Governor's Palace, and that the Governor of Gaia was invited to come and discuss affairs.
At the same time, the person who sent the invitation said that the governor's wife felt very guilty for neglecting her allies because she had been busy with official business for many days, so the banquet also carried some compensatory feelings.
Gaia was very happy to accept the invitation, but then General Sogher expressed strong objections, and he said to Gaia at that time: The other party has been moving for so many days, and the cover has been arranged, and now he is waiting for the final introduction of us Gaia didn't believe it, but decided to bring someone to the feast.

At this time, General Thorgel finally decided to do it himself He said that Gaia could go to the banquet, but it was strongly recommended to bring more cavalry to escort him, Gaia was already impatient, he was convinced that his allies had no reason to harm him, and this Sogel was noisy in his ears every day, if it weren't for the lack of such a figure who could preside over military affairs under his command now, he would have been unable to tolerate this guy who did things not to his liking.
Gaia reluctantly agreed to Sogar and bring more guards, but he had already secretly made up his mind in his heart, after returning from the banquet tonight, he would have to find an excuse to remove this Soger and replace him.
With Gaia's permission, Sogel immediately gathered almost all of his men and "escorted" Gaia all the way to the Doge's Palace for a banquet.
Gaia sat in the carriage, still thinking about how to ask for help after meeting the governor's wife tonight, but the direction of the carriage had changed unconsciously, and Sogel had quietly subordinated his henchmen and loyal subordinates, and changed the direction of the convoy halfway and turned towards the city gate.
Although there were also a small number of servants sent by the governor's palace, they had all been subdued by Sogher's order to be subdued with lightning speed, and while Gaia was still sitting in the carriage and thinking about his thoughts, the carriage had quietly approached the city gate At this time, the prepared ambush in the governor's palace finally got the news that the prey did not get in by itself, but turned halfway and ran towards the city gate.
Immediately, the soldiers and horses of the Besta Military Region were immediately mobilized and chased all the way.
In this situation, General Thorge finally showed his superior military strategy He made a series of risky moves, and these risky moves, in hindsight, were all very correct and wise In the first place, instead of fleeing with his men, he divided his already weak forces into a cavalry of about a hundred cavalry, which he ordered to move around the city at once, in order to cause a disturbance, and to make a feint attack on the governor's palace These hundred cavalry were all brave men and horses, carefully selected by Sogher.
Immediately, a hundred cavalry began to set fire to the capital city of Besta, and even whistled and set off movements, making a gesture of feint to attack the governor's palace.
The pursuers of Besta were confused by these people, and in the night they only saw fires everywhere in the city, and some people took advantage of the night to attack the governor's palace, and the pursuers were confused and could not find a clear location of Gaia, so they could only return to the governor's palace first, for fear that something would go wrong in the governor's palace.
Later, the leading officer of the pursuing army was demoted by the governor's wife, and on the other hand, Thorgel had already replaced the carriage with Gaia, and rode directly towards a city gate.
It was not difficult to get more than ten sets of flags of the Besta army that Sogar had carefully forged before, although they were made roughly, and they would naturally be seen through by people when used in broad daylight, but at night, they suddenly came out and rushed to the city gate with people, just shouting from afar that there were people in the city in turmoil, and the governor's wife sent people to reinforce the city gate.
The army defending the city was not on guard, and it was finally noticed that Sogel led people to rush to the front, and Sogel led people to fight to the death, and more than half of his men were killed and wounded, and led people to protect Gaia and break the city In this risky move, Sogel seized another opportunity: if the Besta people want to kill their own people, they must not dare to make a public announcement, they must only be closely protected in the core group, and those troops defending the city must not know the inside story, so although the city defense has mobilized a large number of troops and strengthened the defense, but they have a plan or not, and there is still a great chance to take advantage of the chaos to kill By the time they left the city, Gaia's group was running out.
In the midst of the rebellion, many of Gaia's exiled political officials were left behind and disappeared in the city.
Only Thorgel and less than a hundred cavalry guards escaped.
At this time, Sogher made another decision Less than five miles out of the city, Sogar ordered all the men to stop.
The main road outside the city has three directions, two of which lead to the south and one to the north.
Thorgel gathered all the cavalry together and gave a brief order He actually ordered the hundred cavalry to leave the group, gather on their own and flee to the south This move frightened Gaia, who was already panicked, and the major general had completely lost any ability to react, but at least, he now had only a few soldiers left by his side, and he instinctively felt that he had to keep his soldiers and horses by his side to be safe But Sogher was adamantly opposed to this approach.
"The governor's wife is resourceful, outside the city she has already arranged a cavalry regiment with our people, even if we run with all our strength, they can't escape their cavalry regiment has a large number of horses, even if we run out, it will be impossible to escape when the horsepower is exhausted, we can only let all the cavalry gather along the way, and then pretend to escape, the enemy will definitely think that you are with the large army, and you will never think that we dare to escape from the brigade alone, maybe we still have a chance to survive" Speaking of this, Sogel held back tears and said to the only remaining hundred horsemen in front of him: "I must clearly tell you that most of you will die, the enemy will chase after your horseshoe marks, and you will not let you go, your mission is to escape as much as possible, the farther you escape, the better, the longer the delay, so that the son will have more time to get out of danger, you are all the best soldiers of the Corsican army, you have experienced life and death battles, a hundred battles and blood, you can live to this day, come here, Each one of them is the best elite, but now, I order you to die, not just for me, not just for Childe, but for Corsica for our revenge As a Corsican soldier, I really hope that I can go on the road with you, and then fight with the enemy for a while, and die happily, but I can't do this, it's not that I, Sogher, am afraid of death, but I still have a mission that has not been completed, and we can't all die here, because if we all die, Then the seeds of the Corsicans will be extinct, we must leave the seeds, the seeds of the restoration of our homeland, the seeds of revenge on the enemy, I swear here in the name of my ancestors, I, Sogher, will not forget my mission, for the rest of my life, I will dedicate all my life to the cause of revenge, those murderous Odin, those treacherous allies, each of them, I will let them pay the blood of our brothers, I will definitely get it back for them" With that, Sogher pulled out a roster from his bosom "In this list, all the brothers who came out with us tonight, a total of three hundred and sixteen people, many of whom are no longer in the city, and there are still you, and the name of each and every one of them is written in this booklet, if I can get out alive and protect our Governor, then this name, one day, when we can regain our homeland, each and every one of you will be a hero of Corsica, I swear to it" After Sogher finished speaking, the hundred cavalry, almost not one hesitated, they all gathered together quietly, a hundred horsemen, the last hundred cavalry of the Corsican army, saluted General Sogher, and then, after assembling and arranging, they roared along the main road to the south Not a single pause, not a single hesitation Thorgel watched the last hundred horsemen of his men almost tearfully depart, and the general sat on his horse and wept silently, his whole body trembled, and he could scarcely restrain his impulses.
As Sogel had expected, the Governor's wife of the Besta Military Region reacted very quickly, and the cavalry regiment outside the city soon followed after him, following the horseshoe marks left on the road.
The bait of the hundred cavalry was all unlucky.
Sogar took Gaia with him, with only four wounded guards left, and fled along the path over the mountains and mountains, all the way north.
He was not very clear about the future path in his heart, after all, he was only a soldier, too complicated and not good at strategy, he thought that under the circumstances at that time, there was no way out to the south.
What the Bestas have done, it is already clear that the Union has completely abandoned Corsica as an outcast.
Then to the south, it is the territory of the alliance warlords, and there is no hope of going.
The only glimmer of hope is to go north, to be able to quietly return to the Corsican Military Region, and then hide, secretly contact the old courtiers of the Corsican Military District, and those troops who were absorbed by the Odin, and then operate secretly, gather forces, and secretly organize forces to resist the rule of the Odins, maybe there is a glimmer of hope in the future After Char listened to Sogher's words, he stood in front of this wounded soldier and was silent for a while.
Then he sat down silently, and when he looked at Sogher, his eyes were already full of respect.
Although the positions are different, in any case, the qualities of such a loyal and brave general are worthy of his admiration.
Sighing, Char said slowly: "There is always some bravery that makes people cry" He looked at Gaia, who was unconscious and shrunk into a ball next to him: "There is always some cowardice that will make people despised." ” `` To be continued 〗Hanyu Pinyin "" is simple and easy to remember:
