Sorry, this chapter is even later again, it's already half past one in the middle of the night.
It's not that I'm slacking off and deliberately late, it's actually that I've written and revised this chapter several times.
This short chapter has been changed three times, the first time I wrote the 6,000-word version, I read it, I was not satisfied, the second version of the 8,000 words, I still feel insufficient, and I revised it.
As a result, in the end, it was written as the current 10,000-word chapter.
Chapter 433 Ten Manninger's persistence undoubtedly has its own reason.
The Odin Empire has always been known for its fierce warriors, but in fact, in terms of national strength, it is far inferior to the Byzantine Empire.
If it weren't for the fact that the Byzantine Empire had been trapped in the Tema military region system for a hundred years, which caused the internal division of the empire and the great decline of national strength, it would have been difficult for the Odin Empire to gain the upper hand in the competition between the two countries.
What's more, the Odin people have always been barbaric, unlike the wise men here in the Byzantine Empire.
If it is a competition of power and wisdom, ten Odin tied together cannot catch up with one Byzantine.
But Manninger, a rare hero among the Odin, is a clear person, he knows the gap between the two countries, and he sees the situation very clearly The Byzantine Empire now has finally completely broken out in internal strife, civil wars have been repeated, and the royal family and warlords have finally torn their faces and fought fiercely, and the country's power has declined to the weakest time in history It can be said that the best opportunity to defeat this most powerful empire in one fell swoop, in front of the eyes of the Odin, could not have been better than now Manninger, on the other hand, knows better: this opportunity is only once, and if you miss it now, you will never think about it again After the Great Rebellion, that is, after the civil war of Great Governance, whether the Byzantine royal family won or the warlords of the Red Round Table won, although the outcome was different, but there was only one result: the end of the civil strife There is always a time when the civil war is over, and the Byzantine Empire was weak before because the civil strife has been triggered, gradually weakening the strength of the empire.
But once the contradictions of the civil strife completely break out, it will really end this civil war, and once it is over, no matter which side wins, it will begin to clean up the mess next, and then slowly restore the national strength.
With the old foundation of the Byzantine Empire, the population, land, and various resources are far superior to Odin, once the Byzantine Empire is settled down here and the national strength is restored, it will not take many years to surpass the Odin Empire, and then this situation is no longer up to the Odins So, this is the best chance, and the only chance Manninger saw far and had a big plan in his heart, so he would come out and bring out all the most elite soldiers of his tribe, not just to plunder, but to take the opportunity to bite hard, and then plan for the greatest benefit to lay a solid foundation for the situation in the future decades or even hundreds of years Manninger knows better that Odin and Byzantium are competing with each other, Byzantium has the advantage of financial, human and various resources, and the only thing that Odin can rely on is the bravery and fierceness that they rely on for survival The Odin Empire's ability to suppress the Byzantine Empire for so many years relied on this fierce spirit And at this moment, his Chixue army has been repeatedly frustrated, the nest has been raided, the son of the dignified patriarch has been beheaded, the army has been chased and killed by other cavalry ranks and tails, and his elite cavalry has almost been wiped out One by one, the setbacks have already shaken the spirit of the whole army This spirit is the biggest reliance of the Odin, if the Odin people even lose this courage, then the Odin people really don't have any capital to fight against the Byzantines Now, if the whole army moves to other places to take shelter temporarily, loot the grain of a few more towns, barely survive this winter, and slowly repair and recover, it is not impossible.
But in the face of such a setback, the army did not fight hard, but instead shifted to avoid such a thing, once there is a beginning, once the heart is lost, I am afraid it will not be so easy to recover Once the bones are soft, it is difficult to get hard again So, in any way, Manninger had to bite the bullet and bring his army to the new city, even if it was a big risk But this was his only chance If you retreat and escape now, although you can hide for a while and give your whole army a little respite, but the enemy occupies his old nest new city, if he doesn't go head-on, the other party can naturally take advantage of this winter, use his time to take a breather and hide, and then subdue the rest of the territory of Siltan County little by little After all, this is the Byzantine Empire, after all, these territories, it has only been half a year since the Red Snow Army was defeated, if the Byzantine army was subdued back, and after his army was cultivated, it would be difficult to recapture it So, Manninger is not reckless, but he really has no choice The Red Snow Army returned to the road, and the whole army accelerated towards the new city.
The foot army walked, and the natural speed was much slower, and after walking for two more days, the army walked to the place where Char had annihilated the vanguard of Odin's cavalry a few days ago.
In the middle of the road, there were several tall piles of human heads, and those heads were piled up, all of which were the heads of Odin's vanguard cavalry warriors There was no snow in the past two days, and it looked clearly visible, and the army walked here, and was shocked by the scene in front of them Only the Odin people have always savagely killed other tribes, but at this moment, they saw the heads of their own warriors piled up here, and in the eyes of the Odin, it was tantamount to a heavy hammer Originally, the leaders and generals in the army were worried about this scene in front of them, if Manninger saw it, they were afraid that the patriarch, who was already weak, would be angry again, and if he vomited blood again, he was afraid that something bad would happen.
Unexpectedly, Manninger seemed to be very calm this time, knowing that on the road ahead, his vanguard cavalry, the heads of which were cut off by the enemy and piled up in the middle of the road, he seemed very calm, but his face was still pale, and he lightly ordered to clear the road and continue to move forward.
His calm appearance made the hearts of these tribal leaders under him feel worried.
Manninger had vomited blood twice in the past few days, had fallen into a coma several times, and his physical condition was getting worse and worse, and even the guards who were beside the squire could hear the coughing of the patriarch in the carriage all the way, and his strength to speak was getting weaker and weaker.
Although Manninger still insisted on coming out of the carriage every day to appear in front of the generals to appease people, his face was pale, but he could not hide it.
At noon on the fourth day, the army finally set out for the new city And at this moment, a full seven days have passed since the new city was captured by Char The Red Snow Army set up camp outside the city, but Manninger suddenly seemed to have recovered some strength, and as soon as the army was stationed, he immediately gathered many generals and leaders of the tribe, and gave the order to attack the city without hesitation "The patriarchs have been running for a long time, day and night, and many of the brave men in the tribe are tired and vomit blood or rest for a while, let everyone recuperate and give the order to attack the city."
In the face of such a request, Manninger just said coldly: "I don't have time to wait, if you don't have the strength, I will personally bring my personal guards up to fight." ” This sentence can make the people below dare not disobey again.
If the commander of the dignified Chixue Army really personally led his guards to fight, then the leaders and generals of these tribes below would simply wipe their necks and commit suicide Manninger's tough attitude at the moment, relying on his years of accumulation, still gave orders.
Before the camp of the Chixue Army was stable, it immediately mobilized the soldiers in the army and launched the first wave of offensive.
In the new city, Nene has made all preparations here, although Char has left, but the surrendered army in the city has not happened again.
They weren't really loyal, they were just forced to have no way out.
At the moment, except for defending to the death and fighting to the death with the Odin people in order to survive, there is no need to think about anything else.
Without other ideas, once people's minds are pure, they will naturally become more efficient in doing things.
The city defense was originally very strong, and the interior has been fully prepared in the past few days, making a new city ironclad.
The city walls of the new city are tall, there were originally a total of three city gates, and the inner city simply asked people to seal the city gates from the inside stones, and gambled to death Anyway, this little force in the city, the city defense is insufficient, and there is no plan to go out of the city to fight at night, blocking the city gate, which can be regarded as a united heart.
The first wave of the Red Snow Army's offensive appeared to be magnificent.
Looking at the black and oppressive Odin people under the city, even though those defenders had made up their minds to fight to the death, many people still couldn't help but feel numb in their scalps These are the Odin, the fierce and powerful Odin.
The defenders in the city were all subordinate to the army, and they were all defeated by the Odin in the past, and the strength of the Odin had already left a deep shadow in their hearts.
At this moment, in order to survive, I have to fight hard.
Nene stood on the city wall, looking at the defenders on the left and right with different faces, and as soon as his heart moved, he raised a long knife in his hand and shouted: "Look at the corpses of those Odin people under the city and see those guys hanging on the city wall, you have no choice but to live, just fight to the death."
She roared angrily, and several cavalrymen standing beside her all raised their long knives in unison, and with the provocation of these people, they shouted over and over again, and this shout finally dispelled the fear in the hearts of the defenders little by little.
Gradually, the sound of "desperate battle" gradually came from the city wall, and at first it was only sparse, but under the hard shouting and leadership of Nene and a few cavalry, the sound of "desperate battle" became more and more neat and louder.
When the Odin attacked the city, a rain of arrows fell on the city.
A large number of powerful crossbows and arrows were stockpiled in the city.
At this moment, he naturally used it all without hesitation.
Although there are less than 3,000 defenders, and the courage is quite insufficient, if it is a field battle, I am afraid that it will be destroyed by the Odin people in one go, but the courage to hide in the city defense and shoot arrows is still there.
A few waves of arrows rained down a lot of casualties on the Odin people besieging the city, and gradually, after shooting a few arrows, the momentum of the defenders finally came up a lot The Odin people are also under the eyes of their bows and arrows, and those Odin who are besieging the city under the city have fallen to the ground and died, or screaming on the ground.
The defenders were getting stronger The city gate has been blocked, and the defenders don't need to be distracted, just defend the city wall to the death, and deal with the Odin's annexed city battle.
Under Manninger's strict orders, the whole army of the Red Snow Army rushed desperately, and naturally threw away most of the heavy ordnance in order to speed up the speed with light equipment.
When attacking the city, the equipment is naturally insufficient, and what catapults, siege vehicles, for a while, cannot be built at all.
Even the ladders for climbing the city were only made in a hurry.

Outside the new city is the wilderness, even if there were some small forests in the past, they have been cut down, and at this moment, the Odin people want to cut wood to make siege equipment, it is not possible to do it for a while.
The Odin people braved the rain of arrows at the head of the city to rush to the bottom of the city, and forcibly endured the damage before they attacked the city, and countless stones and boiling oil were immediately smashed down on the city.
For a while, the sound of screaming and howling spread all over the city After enduring considerable damage, the ladders to climb the city were finally propped up one by one, and some of the warriors in Odin's army took the lead in climbing the ladders and attacking the city wall, braving the rain of arrows and the boiling oil of the stones that fell on their heads, although from time to time someone screamed and fell from the sky, but the natural toughness and courage of the Odin people still supported their determination to fight to the death But the defenders are still stubborn For these subordinate troops, if they had been in the past, they naturally did not have this kind of courage, and when they watched the Odin people kill, their instinctive reaction was to throw down their weapons and escape, or bend their knees and surrender.
But after all, there is a thought in my heart: the city is broken, and it will die At the moment of life and death, no matter how cowardly a person is, he can't help but burst out with courage.
The defenders resisted stubbornly, although occasionally Odin warriors rushed to the head of the city at the risk of death, but they were immediately killed by the defenders who surrounded them, and Nene was even more powerful, with dozens of cavalry elites around him, running back and forth on the city wall, once he found which section of the city defense was in an emergency, Nene took these elites to kill immediately.
She is strong in personal force, and she is accompanied by a group of reinforced elite cavalry, these cavalry are strong and brave, and to use a joke, "more Odin than Odin" Whenever there is a dangerous city defense, Nenei will bring someone to kill with a roar, and she will slash through with a long knife in her hand, and no Odin can stop her move Seeing that the city wall had been fighting for a long time, although the Odin people had tried their best, the ladders built one by one were gradually overturned one by one, and the boiling oil sprinkled on the city was poured down, and then torches were dropped, and some ladders immediately burst into flames The Odin people fought hard for more than an hour, but they did not have any success and occasionally attacked the city, and they were extinguished by the inner people in an instant.
Manninger was just in front of his own formation, and although he was weak, he was forced to support himself, and he sat at the front of the formation.
Seeing that the teams of Odin warriors he sent out, although they fought to the death, they were never able to attack the city defense, and gradually their morale began to relax.
I watched as the ladders erected on the city wall were overturned one by one, and some of them had turned into raging fires.
Manninger finally sighed in disappointment.
After fighting for more than an hour, he finally waved his hand weakly: "Let them retreat." ” Manninger had to make this decision.
At this moment, although the Odin people have an absolute advantage in strength, after all, they have traveled a long distance and have no siege equipment, and even the ladders to climb the city are only a dozen or so, which have just been made temporarily.
Right now, although he still has enough troops, those ladders have been destroyed.
You can't really let your warriors hit the walls with their heads.
Besides, Manninger knew he was taking a risk.
When the army arrives, it is a taboo to immediately attack the city without repairs.
But Manninger had a fluke in his heart, the new city must have been lost for only a few days, the defenders of the city were unstable, and those attached troops were afraid of themselves, and maybe they would not dare to fight to the death.
In one go, maybe he could attack it, but unfortunately, this fluke idea was finally dispelled by himself after the failure of the adventure.
It seems that the attempt failed, and Manninger had to redo his plan.
"Order, repair all nights, battalions make siege equipment overnight, and tomorrow I will see a hundred long ladders" Manninger had to accept this fact, but the haze on his face deepened a little, and he coughed a few times in the cold wind, and then went back to the carriage to rest, surrounded by the guards.
He really can't blow the cold wind at the moment.
The patriarch's order was pressed, and the whole army rushed to make siege equipment overnight, although the surrounding woods were cut down, the army could only send out small teams to search the woods on all sides, and even had to tear down the wooden boxes of the wagons and even the fences used for camping to make ordnance.
This night, the camp of the Red Snow Army was in full swing, and it was busy all night.
Manninger rested in his carriage, but his heart was on fire, where could he really sleep This night, he tossed and turned, and there was only a faint uneasiness in his heart, and a kind of failed decadence came over and over again, making Manninger's heart beat non-stop.
It wasn't until it was almost dawn that he turned over and was about to call someone, when suddenly he heard a hurried shouting outside.
"The patriarch is not good, the patriarch is not good, it is not good, there is a fire in the city" As soon as he heard this, Manninger suddenly did not know where the strength came from, so he suddenly jumped up, kicked the carriages, and rushed out barefoot without even putting on his clothes or shoes There was cold snow underfoot, and the sky above me was still gray, and the sky had not really lit up, and it was just the time of dawn Manninger stood in the snow, barefoot in the icy snow, and this chill seemed to spread to his heart along his feet and legs His eyes were fixed in the direction of the new city fire Under the gray sky, the sky above the new city was full of fire, which was so obvious and shocking Billowing black smoke shot into the sky, and the firelight seemed to stain the sky red From a distance, in the dark night, the fire was even more menacing And the direction of the fire is in the new city Hearing the news, many of the tribal generals and leaders of the army rushed to gather around Manninger, and some of them beat their chests when they saw the fire in the city, and some of them stomped their feet and shouted insults.
There were also people with frustrated faces and looked at Manninger: "My lord, patriarch, they set fire to our warehouses and our things."
But the others shouted for a long time, but Manninger himself did not say a word, just quietly stared at the new city in the distance.
It seems that at this moment, the backbone of the Red Snow Army, the pillar of the pillar, has been completely stunned.
Finally, in the midst of the repeated calls of the people next to him, Manninger finally turned his head and swept his gaze over the generals present.
What a gaze this is Others clearly saw that their own coach had red eyes "Good, good, good" Manninger said a few "good" words in a row, and then he took a deep breath, but his pale face was a strange red, and the corners of his mouth even showed a smirk.
"Okay, okay" Manninger's voice, word by word, was like a cold bird crying blood, and in his tone, he was indescribably poignant: "Good Byzantine commander, enough to block the city gate, cut off his own way, and set fire to the city, burning all our stored materials, he cut off his own way of life, and he is also a person who has cut off our way so ruthlessly, he must be a person with great wisdom and courage, I Manninger lost in the hands of such a hero, and it is not a loss, hahahahaha" At the end of the wild laughter, Manninger suddenly opened his mouth again, and a cloud of blood spurted out, falling on the snow, like a little pear blossom The majestic figure fell down with a bang.
Manninger vomited blood again and fell, and the people around him were in chaos.
Someone rushed over and helped the commander-in-chief up.
But this time, Manninger was not unconscious, he was held by several people, but his eyes were still wide, and the blood in his mouth was still spurting out mouthfuls Seeing the patriarch vomiting blood again and again, everyone panicked until Manninger was put back in the carriage, Manninger's chest was already blood-red, and his beard was dyed red.
A wizard in the army came to the rescue and poured him a potion, but as soon as he poured it, he spurted it out with blood in his mouth Some of the guards and clan leaders around him who had followed him for many years were all panicked, and some even cried on the spot, and some cried.
Manninger vomited blood, but he never fell into a coma, watching the people around him rescue, watching the wizards in the army drugged themselves, and performed witchcraft on themselves.
From beginning to end, this Odin hero only kept his eyes open, but in those eyes, there was calm.
Finally, after several scarves had been dyed red, Manninger's vomiting of blood finally stopped.
Manninger seemed to be unable to hear the shouts of the people next to him, he just opened his eyes and looked at the top of the carriage, as if he was still calm, and seemed to be quietly thinking about something.
Seeing that the coach finally stopped vomiting blood, the talent below breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this time, Manninger suddenly spoke.
"Mobilize my personal guards, surround the carriage, no one, within twenty paces, no one is allowed to approach, and those who violate the order will be killed directly."
Manninger's calm voice came out word by word, although the middle qi was weak, but in that tone, it seemed to have regained a bit of the fierce taste of the past.
"The leaders and generals of all armies have come to listen to my instructions, and if anyone does not come, they will be beheaded directly."

This is the second command.
When these two orders were spoken, the people around him were shocked After saying these two orders, Manninger closed his eyes and waited quietly.
With his two strict orders, the army immediately took action, and in a short time, all the leaders and generals of the Red Snow Army and the tribe gathered together.
Around the carriage, hundreds of Manninger's guards were already within twenty paces, and the water around them was impassable.
Manninger ordered his carriage to be removed, so that all the generals who had gathered could see him beside the carriage.
At this moment, his expression was strange, his tone was calm, and others did not dare to disobey, although he knew that the patriarch was seriously ill and could not blow the wind, and the order to remove the carriage was a little inappropriate, but at this time, Manninger had already made it clear that the violator would be killed immediately When everyone was gathered, Manninger suddenly seemed to regain some of his spirits.
He didn't even need to be helped, he slowly sat up by himself, sat on the soft couch in the carriage, and then his sharp eyes slowly swept the audience.
Anyone who was swept by his eyes subconsciously lowered their heads.
There was a faint realization in everyone's heart: "After I die, you don't need to panic. ” Manninger slowly said the first sentence, and suddenly everyone present was shocked, and someone couldn't help but shout out, Manninger shouted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense at this moment, don't interrupt before I finish speaking, if anyone makes noise, kill directly" A strict order was spoken, and the shouting people quickly closed their mouths.
Manninger took a deep breath and looked at the generals and leaders of these tribes around him, after all, they were all subordinates who had followed him for many years, and his eyes softened a little.
"You don't have to panic, everyone dies at the moment, I can't afford it at the moment, my surname is in an instant, and now I have a few words to explain to you.
Listen, it's best to do what I command, but if someone disobeys me afterwards, I won't be able to see it anyway after I die. ” Speaking of this, Manninger paused deliberately, looking at everyone, and the people below dared to speak, and shouted loudly: "Don't dare to disobey the order of the patriarch." ” "Good."
Manninger coughed twice, his voice was weak, but his tone was still flat: "After I die, the whole army does not have to continue to attack the city, and immediately march north."
The army moved slowly, going north, and if the towns we came to along the way, if they were still in our possession, we would scavenge for grain and grass, and if they had already been occupied by the Byzantines, we would go around the city, and there was no need to entangle. ” When he said this, he coughed again, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, Manninger wiped it off casually, and then continued: "The army goes all the way north, as long as you calm the hearts of the army, be careful all the way, don't need to be fast, go steadily, even if the Byzantine army will send cavalry to entangle, as long as you ignore it, be careful, and fight with them regardless of the troops, they have few soldiers, and they can't help you."
I know that this road is difficult, from here, beyond Syltanshire, beyond Mor County, all the way north, from the wildfire field, back to our Odin Empire.
As long as you can get out of Mooreshire, this way of life can be considered to be through. ” After saying this, everyone below changed color At this time, after all, Odin's surname was rude, and finally a tribal leader couldn't help but speak: "Patriarch, you don't have to be so decadent, we still have tens of thousands of soldiers, this new city is not enough troops, and Ming said that it will definitely be able to capture it when the time comes."
When Manninger heard this, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, he raised his hand, pointed at the person who spoke, and said coldly: "Kill" As soon as he gave the order, several guards rushed up and pressed the tribal leader who spoke to the ground, and the man was so frightened that he shouted and begged for mercy, but one of the guards had already pulled out a knife and stabbed him in the neck, and with a bang, a man's head was cut off Manninger sighed: "Is there anyone else who has anything to say?"
Where below are there those who dare to speak, everyone bows to the ground, and they all say loudly: "Don't dare to disobey the patriarch" "Okay."
Manninger's face turned a little more defeated, he took a deep breath, his eyes swept over everyone, as if he hesitated for a while: "Fielding stays, the others retreat to the battalions, and the whole army goes." ” The people below looked at each other, and finally dispersed under the drive of those patriarchs' personal guards.
On the spot, the only man named by Manninger was still bowed to the carriage.
This man named Fielding, about forty years old, wearing a leather jacket, has a rather majestic appearance, and looks like a standard Odin, but compared to other Odin, his eyes are a little more calm.
Manninger sighed softly: "Fielding, you are one of the elders of my clan, and you are usually steady, and there are some things that I can only entrust to you in order to rest assured." ” The field fell to his knees and paused.
Manninger looked at the other party's attitude, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he took a few breaths before he said slowly: "The battle situation is no longer under our control, and it is imperative to retreat the troops. ” "Yes."
The Fielding hesitated, a hint of pain flashed in his eyes, and finally nodded.
"We Odin are too proud, we still have tens of thousands of warriors in hand at this moment, even if I die, most of them are not convinced and want to continue to attack the new city.
But there are some things that others don't understand, and only you can understand what I said.
There are so many leaders and elders of the tribe, but I have always trusted you the most, because you have a clear mind, and you are a rare talent among my Odin.
We Odin, there is no shortage of martial arts, but what is lacking is precisely a person with brains. ” Manninger said this, and his voice was a little weaker: "If the city is forcibly attacked, this new city can naturally be laid, but after it is laid, it is useless."
The grain, grass and ordnance stored in the new city were burned by the Byzantines.
Our foundation is shaken, and this Siltan County can no longer stay.
If I am still alive and commanding the whole army, I may be able to lead the troops here to continue to deal with them, but as soon as I die, there are many brave generals in the whole army, but there is no one who can lead the whole army, continue to fight, then it is really the way to die The commander of this Byzantine army is very good, and all of these means are forcing us to a dead end, I just thought about it for a long time, I really can't figure it out, the good situation is obviously in me, how can the other party turn this situation over Hehe, I Manninger is proud of my life, and I met such an opponent, If you lose, you don't lose money.
We have no foundation, and the capture of the new city is just an empty shell, other towns in Syltan County, I am afraid that many places will be stodied by the Byzantines, our guest army is here, it will not be able to stay, if we force it to fight again, these tens of thousands of tribal elites, will die here If my Bashak clan loses these tens of thousands of elites, the whole clan will inevitably be annexed by other tribes in the future, Fielding, what I entrust to you today is the life and death of my Bashak clan. ” When this Fielding heard this, he finally raised his head, his eyes full of tears: "Patriarch, I have written it down, and I will never dare to disobey in the slightest." ” Manninger's face was tired, but his eyes showed a hint of relief: "Okay, if you have anything else you want to ask, let's talk about it now." ” Fielding did not hesitate, and asked directly: "May I ask the patriarch after you, the head of the clan, who will be responsible?"
Manninger nodded: "My second son is still in the clan, although he is only seventeen years old, but there are still tens of thousands of young men in the clan, you will bring back tens of thousands of warriors, if you can do your best to assist" "I will do my best to assist your son," said Fielding without hesitation.
After a pause, Fielding couldn't help but say: "I led the troops back north, if the Byzantine army intercepted me, what should I do?"
Manninger listened and said lightly: "If it is a small disturbance, ignore him and allow him to retreat." ” Fielding hesitated: "What if the army comes?"
Manninger listened, his eyes froze, he was silent for a while, then he exhaled, and said slowly: "The Byzantines have already won, after all, they have few soldiers, since we have withdrawn our troops, I think the Byzantine army commander may not be willing to lose his troops and fight to the death with us, after all, we still have tens of thousands of soldiers, if we really fight to the death, even if the other party can win, the loss will not be small."
At this moment, Byzantium has been in turmoil, and in the troubled times, everyone is self-consolidated, where is anyone willing to do this thankless thing.
This Byzantine commander is supposed to be a smart man, so" Fielding frowned, looked at the patriarch, hesitated, and couldn't help but say: "But in case, the other party really gathers a large army to intercept us, I should" The muscles on Manninger's face trembled, and he stared deeply at Fielding in front of him, but this Fielding was looking at Manninger at the moment and did not flinch: "Since the patriarch has handed over the matter to me, I dare not have the slightest slackness. ” Manninger finally nodded and lowered his voice: "There is not much food left in the army, if the enemy's army is intercepted, we can't fight for a long time, we will definitely lose, if it is really impossible to do anything, I promise you to only take my own battalion elite to break through to the north, leave this battalion, and go back to the country by yourself, his Byzantine army will definitely focus on annihilating my army, you small elite break through, they will not chase too much."
After returning to China, you go to meet His Majesty the Emperor of God, face the experience of my Chixue Army, His Majesty the Emperor and I still have some affection after all, Your Majesty's surname has always been strong but not weak, I died in battle, he is in love, and he will definitely protect my people.
Supporting my second son to inherit the position of patriarch can be regarded as preserving my Bashak family. ” Hearing this, Fielding's face sank, and he couldn't help but shake Manninger's words are clear, that is, he promised himself that in times of crisis, he could abandon the whole army and only take him Manninger's own camp At the most critical moment, Manninger still put his family first, even if he abandoned the whole army, he had to let his own camp return to China, so as to support his second son to inherit the position of patriarch The true colors of the heroes are undoubtedly revealed Seeing that Fielding's eyes flashed, as if he still had something to ask again, Manninger had already shook his head, looked at Fielding, and sighed: "The rest, it's not what I can see now, let it be fate." ” Fielding didn't dare to say anything more, his eyes were full of tears, he slowly stood up, bowed solemnly again, paused heavily, made a big salute, and then wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and turned to leave When Fielding left, Manninger in the carriage finally closed his eyes, and then smiled softly and bitterly.
"The commander of this Byzantine army, I heard that it was the one named Char Leiming, when I went south, he came to see me alone, and called me to be a pawn, I only thought he was a brave young rookie, but I didn't expect that this person was so good that the Byzantine Empire was handsome, but my Odin only cared about the brutal destiny, everything is the destiny of heaven hehe, I Manninger came down to the south, swallowed Siltan, occupied Corsica, destroyed the Seventh Corps, the prestige of this life, and it was not in vain that I Odin hero lived a lifetime, even if he died, I also want to leave a great name, a good man, so that I will not come to this world once in vain" He suddenly opened his eyes again: "Come, help me up." ” The guards on the left and right were all with tears in their eyes, and when they heard Manninger's call, naturally two guards came over and set up the patriarch.
Manninger could no longer walk, so he could only stand in the carriage and look out from afar.
At this moment, his eyes did not look at the new city in the distance, but looked to the left and then to the right, and his eyes were full of lingering and unwillingness Above the plain, the terrain is flat, and the land is vast.
