Chapter 436: Whitewashing Under the new city.
The blocked gates had been reopened after the decisive battle a few days earlier.
Outside the new city, the battlefield has been cleared in a few days, but above the wilderness, there seems to be a faint strong smell of blood, which has penetrated into the earth and has not dispersed for a long time At this moment, even if you are standing in the wilderness outside the city, you can still hear the screams and howls of the thrilling battle a few years ago, as if they are still in your ears, and the ground under your feet, the ice and snow have already melted, fused with blood, and penetrated deeply into the soil, as if they have turned faintly red The original camp of the Chixue Army outside the new city has already been burned In that battle a few days ago, the Chixue Army also put on a decisive battle posture at the beginning, but then the development of the battle situation made the Chixue Army and even the defenders watching the battle at the head of the city a little surprised From the beginning of the decisive battle, the Byzantine army almost crushed the Red Snow army The Byzantine army was the infantry of the 1st Corps commanded by Green.
However, more than 10,000 people actually crushed the 30,000 Chixue army to death In the battle between the two armies, the Chixue army was actually beaten and retreated, and the Byzantine army charged six times, won six battles and six victories, and actually killed the Odin, who had always been known for their good fighting, and retreated Such a scene was not only understood by the defenders who were watching the battle on the city wall, but also by the eldest lady who was also standing on the city wall at that time Only the leaders of the tribes in the Red Snow Army finally came back to their senses at that time The demoralization was so low that your team lost three points before the start of the fight And once the war starts, if it was originally a fighting force, Char's first corps was infantry, infantry against infantry, and the number of the first corps was small, and it was by no means the opponent of the Chixue Army, but it was able to kill the Chixue Army and retreat step by step1 The only explanation was that the Chixue Army was not in harmony with When Manninger was there, the Red Snow Army had such a powerful leader as him, so he could naturally make a sincere and united appearance.
But as soon as Manninger died, the tribes had their own thoughts, and they had the ambition to fight for the position, and when they were fighting, no one was willing to give their strength to the death, and they had the mentality of preserving their strength in the decisive battle, fighting for life and death, and still had this kind of thought, which was simply looking for their own death Furthermore, there is no unified command in the whole army, and after the fight starts, almost the soldiers of each tribe are fighting separately, and there is no cooperation at all, so there is no reason not to lose However, after a fierce battle for a long time, the fierce Chixue Army was defeated and retreated, and the orders of the various departments were different, some retreated first, some retreated, and there was not even a single person who stepped forward to break the rear or lead the rectification.
As a result, six battles and six defeats were lost, and once the men and horses retreated, they could no longer regroup.
After the infantry of the first corps pressed the Chixue Army for a long time, Char's cavalry was dispatched, directly detoured to the side, and gave full play to the advantages of the cavalry's fast mobility and strong impact power from the flank into the army of the Chixue Army, and the cavalry rushed into the formation, and the Chixue Army completely collapsed at once.
If it was in the past, the Red Snow Army would never have defeated this fast infantry against cavalry, even if it was a field battle, if the array was rigorous, it would never give the other party such a big loophole But the problem is that the current Chixue Army does not have a commander who sits in charge of the overall situation A group of people fought on their own, and although the individual warriors of Odin were not weak, they had become a rabble after all.
The cavalry attacked, breaking the formation in one fell swoop, and after the Red Snow Army collapsed, it was a thousand miles away Immediately, Char personally led the cavalry to chase and kill along the road to expand the results of the battle After all, a two-legged one can't outrun a four-legged one.
Char's cavalry chased and drove all the way, and the Red Snow Army that killed had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground In fact, the Chixue Army really died not much in the decisive battle, and most of the casualties were in the later rout and pursuit.
And the Odin, who ran to the end and ran exhausted, finally couldn't run, so they simply surrendered. 14,000 beheaded, 30,000 taken prisoner Since then, the banner of the Red Snow Army has been removed from the mainland Then, after disarming all the captives and gathering them, Char drove them to the camp of the original Red Snow Army, and after starving these guys for a day and a night, he directly gave an order pit Such a cruel order, Char didn't blink his eyelids when he said it At this moment, everyone really felt the cruel side of this commander That night, in the wilderness outside the new city, the sound of wailing and screaming almost shook the stars in the sky Those terrible cries made even the most hard-hearted people can't help but change color But this Marshal Char was the only one with a cold face, and he didn't even move the corners of his eyes 30,000 people, all buried alive, not a single one remained The Byzantine army has never had this tradition of slaughtering prisoners of war, and even a veteran general like Green, who is accustomed to fighting, can't help but have some objections to Char's cruelty, and once tried to persuade Char to change his mind.
But Char's answer was only one sentence.
"Where do we have food to feed these 30,000 people?"
This sentence alone blocked all of Green's words GrainWhere is there still a surplus of food to feed these Odin captives At this moment, after successive wars, almost all the food in Syrtan County has been consumed, and the few remaining family funds are not enough, and there are not enough people to feed themselves 30,000 prisoners of war are more than 30,000 mouths to eat Char's order, from now on, there will be tens of thousands of orphans and widows in the Bashak tribe in the Odin Empire.
Char didn't care if others said he was cruel behind his back, he had no other choice to kill these Odins anyway, and he didn't have any burden in his heart He and the Odin people have always had hatred, and the Odin people invaded the south, since they have the courage to be the invader, they must have the consciousness of suffering the fate of the invader The Red Snow Army occupies Siltan County, ravages the place, and I don't know how many lives have been destroyed, the originally rich Siltan County was tossed by the Red Snow Army in just half a year.
Who has had mercy on those who died under the butcher's knife of Odin?
As soon as Char had disposed of the prisoners of war, he ordered that Sharpa's cavalry immediately split into two routes and marched south, sweeping through the rest of Siltan County to regain the territory.
The other way was handed over to Sogher to lead, and he marched eastward towards the Corsican Military District, and at this moment he was in a posture of great victory, just in one breath to wipe out the Corsican Military District With Sogher's knowledge of the Corsican region and his prestige in the past, it is natural for him to come and subdue the Corsican Military Region.
Fight more with less, defeat the strong with the weak, and win the battle Since the war, the famous Red Snow Army was annihilated, and then Char's army passed all the way, and almost all the towns in the Syltan County area were annihilated, so although there are still a small number of remnants of Odin defenders in various places, where can they turn the situation around, and in some places, the local army and the annexed army simply muster up the courage to open the city gate to welcome Char's army into the city.
Almost in a few days, the whole of Siltan County was calm It had been more than half a month since the end of the war in Siltanshire, and Char welcomed a group of guests from the south in the new city.
The legendary Governor's Wife of the Besta Military Region actually personally led a delegation all the way north to Xincheng to meet with Char and discuss important matters Char herself was a little surprised by the personal arrival of this beautiful and moving governor's wife.
Originally, the two families made some alliances, but after Char returned from the Besta Military Region, he immediately couldn't wait to launch a war against Manninger, although on the one hand, he was forced by the situation, but on the other hand, objectively speaking, he did not have time to say hello to this ally in the south.
Originally, the plan of the two families to plan the Chixue Army together after the beginning of spring was completely abandoned.
What's more, in the previous plans of the two families, there was one of the agreed contents, the two families jointly plotted the Chixue Army, Char's target was Siltan County, and in the Besta Military Region, the smart governor's wife clearly hit the Corsican Military District's idea: this, from the fact that the governor's wife left the last governor of the Corsican Military Region, Young Master Gaia, it is enough to see her plan.
Unexpectedly, Char's movements here are so fast In winter, he forcibly launched an offensive, went against the trend, and actually really created a miracle, defeating the forces of the Red Snow Army in one fell swoop, and then swept the army down, not only occupying Syltan County, but also sending Sogher, an old man from the Corsican Military District, to run all the way to clean up the homeland of the Corsican Military District At the beginning, the two families agreed to do it together, but as a result, your Uncle Char ran to gnaw the results of the battle without saying a word, and with Char's surname, where are you willing to spit out the fat in your mouth easily He was in the new city, in fact, the mission of the Besta Military Region in the south was transiting, and when he first entered Siltan County, Char received a message from his cavalry here.
It's just that Char had already expected in his heart that most of the governor's wife would not give up so easily, but he did it first without telling others, and he also ate all the benefits at this time, and spit it out is a fantasy, even if Char is willing, how can the soldiers under his command who fought bloody battles agree On the one hand, Char deliberately ordered his cavalry to "escort" the mission along the way and slowly go to the new city to meet him, but on the other hand, he quietly sent a herald to urge Sogher, who was in the Corsican Military District, to speed up his actions and be sure to occupy the whole territory of Corsica before the Besta Military Region mission arrived in the new city to meet him, so as to create a fait accompli.
Presumably at that time, the clever and cunning Governor's wife, facing the reality, has nothing to say.
With this thought, Char sent the cavalry to "escort" the mission along the way, and deliberately slowed down along the way, although the road was difficult to travel in winter, but after all, the mission itself also said that the cavalry, from the Besta Military Region to the new city, if it was fast, it would be ten days, but under Char's secret advice, under the "escort" of the cavalry along the way, the original journey of ten days at most, but it was worth walking for more than half a month, and finally arrived in the new city.
Knowing that this mission had entered the new city, Char in the city originally wanted to find another excuse for his busy military affairs, and he had no time to meet with the envoy for the time being, so he found an excuse to delay for another two days.
But Chaya never expected that this governor's wife, who was actually in the embassy, was a dignified speaker of the Besta Military Region, and actually ran to his own territory in person The governor's wife also took it seriously, she concealed her identity and lurked in the mission all the way, and even the cavalry sent by Char to escort and monitor along the way was not noticed.
It wasn't until the mission entered the new city that the governor's wife revealed her identity and asked to see Char.
If it was an ordinary messenger who came, Char could still be cheeky to shirk it, but the big boss of the family came in person, and Char was really embarrassed to find any excuse not to see others.
Finally, as soon as the mission entered the city, Char met with the legendary governor's wife in the city's garrison.
The county warden in the new city was originally the county guard of Siltan County, Siltan County is rich, this county guard is naturally built with a majestic atmosphere, which can be called a luxurious mansion, and after the Red Snow Army occupied here, such a place was naturally unceremoniously occupied by Manninger.
The Odin people did not like the Byzantine luxury style, so this mansion was furnished rough and majestic during the Manninger residence, and the walls were covered with various animal skins, and the bone sculptures of the Odin style can be seen everywhere, and even a large courtyard in the original mansion was made into a wrestling field for the Odins.
The former county keeper was quite elegant, and there were a lot of precious flowers and plants transplanted in the courtyard, but after being occupied by the Odin, those precious flowers and plants in the courtyard were used as feed for the reindeer by the Red Snow Army.
When Char entered the city, there was still a barbaric smell in this mansion, and the tents in the courtyard had not been cleaned up quickly.
Char himself is not a person who pays attention to enjoyment, and this mansion is just a so-so temporary residence, but it is just to receive such a beautiful and noble governor's wife here, but Char himself is a little embarrassed.
After all, when he was a guest at someone's place, people treated him well, three said a small banquet, five said a big banquet, and now received distinguished guests in such a dilapidated place, so that the turtle felt gloomy.
No matter how embarrassed you are, you still have to meet people.
When meeting the governor's wife again, Char was only thinking about a difficult problem: if the governor's wife accused herself of not violating the covenant after meeting, or asked to meddle in the territory of the Corsican military region, how should she deal with such thoughts, so when the two first met, Char was obviously a little absent-minded.
The governor's wife was wearing a leather armor, originally she was disguised as an ordinary official in the mission, hidden in the team, dressed as a man, when they met at this moment, she didn't have time to change her outfit, and when she walked into the courtyard under the leadership of Char's guards, she saw that the governor's wife was wearing a fur hat on her head, and the original long hair was hidden under the brim, and her charming and seductive face was also quite weathered, The wide leather robe covers the curvaceous curves of the figure, but when you walk in, step by step, you still have a seductive demeanor.
What made Char dare not look directly was this woman's eyes.
There is a three-point smile in his eyes, but there are seven points of strangeness.
When the two met, Char's expression was a little sneering, and just about to say something, the governor's wife had already taken two steps and made a flat salute, and her voice was slightly hoarse and tired, but it had a lazy taste.

"Marshal Char is really brave, this battle wiped out the Red Snow Army, and even killed the father and son of Chief Manninger, which is a great victory that the empire has never had in decades After this battle, I am afraid that no one in the entire continent dares to face your tiger might."
As she spoke, the Governor's wife slowly leaned down and said softly, "The Marshal's courage is really admirable."
Char laughed dryly, his mind was spinning quickly, and at the same time thinking about how he should shirk if this woman mentioned the matter of the Corsican Military Region, but at this time, the next sentence of the governor's wife immediately made Char stunned The governor's wife raised her body, looked into Char's eyes, and took a deep breath: "Your Excellency may not know it, just a few days ago, I received an urgent report that the situation in Yanjing has changed dramatically."
Char froze.
He never imagined that when the governor's wife met with him, the first thing to mention was the situation in Osgilia, not to talk about the two alliances, not to talk about the county of Sirtan, not to talk about the belonging of the Corsican military district Char was just stunned, and immediately his face became serious, and he looked at this woman tightly, he knew very well that this woman's intelligence channels were vast, and the news was ten times better than his own At this moment, the other party solemnly said that it must be something huge that happened to Osgilia Char took a deep breath, looked at the woman with a straight face: "Please speak" The Governor's wife smiled lightly, and then uttered a sentence word by word.
"More than a month ago, 30,000 Landis troops landed in Yanjing, and the remnants of the defenders under the command of General Adric in the city formed a defensive situation, and the rebels were not in the same position, and they had no intention of resisting, and Hughes's troops and Salvador's troops took the lead in withdrawing outside the city.
Subsequently, the two sides fought in the streets of the city for three days, and the rebel troops were defeated and retreated, and most of them had been expelled from the city, and Osgilia had been recovered."
Char's body shook when he heard this, and his expression suddenly perked up a little, and he stared at the governor's wife in front of him: "Seriously" The Governor's wife smiled coquettishly: "Such a big matter, how dare I hide that Lord Marshal, you have re-hung the Imperial Eagle Head Banner on the city wall of Osgilia at this moment.
After General Adric and Landis's army joined forces, they fought with the rebels outside Osgilia many times in succession, and the rebels were arguing and unwilling to fight, Governor Hughes had already taken the lead in retreating, and the Salvadoran troops then withdrew, and the rest of the troops were also in their minds.
When I got the news, the rebels had not yet withdrawn, but I was afraid that they would not last long.
The morale can not be discharged, the rebels besieged the city for more than half a year, and after the city was broken, they were driven out, but I am afraid that once this morale is discharged, it will never be able to revive it.
It is only a matter of time before birds and beasts scatter. ” Char's expression became more and more solemn, and he said slowly: "How is the situation in the city?"
As soon as the governor's wife heard Char's question, a trace of appreciation flashed in her eyes, obviously this Marshal Char's mind was really clear, and she immediately understood the situation at the moment, the rebels were no longer the focus, the situation in the city of Osgilia was the key She pursed her lips: "When I got the news in the city, the situation was quite stable, the city guard led by General Adric and the Landis Army divided the city, I heard that the original red zone in the city was the boundary, and each occupied half of the city, but the palace was still in the hands of General Adric, so the situation will not be chaotic for a while." ” Speaking of this, the woman smiled mysteriously: "Now the two sides, I'm afraid that they are still talking about conditions."
The two sides are only afraid that there will be talks, once a compromise is reached, it will be the time for a decisive battle, and the rebels are no longer worried at this moment, although there is still a huge shelf, in fact, the inside has been dispersed, I am afraid that once the empire and the Landis reach an agreement, after the army, the rebel shelf, will be pushed down, this is the general trend, it is already difficult to get back. ” Char didn't say a word, but immediately turned around, took out a map from the table and quickly unfolded it, touched his chin, stared at the map intently, and after looking at it for a long time, he suddenly said coldly: "Catania" The Governor's wife nodded, and her expression became much more serious: "Yes, the Marshal really sees that the Landis have occupied the port of Catania, but I am afraid that they will then increase their troops in the port of Catania and send troops from the port of Catania to the back of the rebels."
When the time came, the rebels under the city of Osgillia were defeated by the enemy and their morale was low, but they were defeated in a battle. ” Char snorted and sneered: "The rebels are over.
Hughes, that old boy, attacked Osgillia, and was driven out in embarrassment, it is enough to show that he didn't have this life, hum the current situation, these guys don't have to think too much about it, it's just those Lantis people hehe, it's " He shook his head: "It's easy to invite in, but it's hard to send out."
The Landis people occupy such a big limelight, how can they easily spit out their own Yanjing after eating the fat in their mouths, they can't let the team control it for a long time, and after a long time, it is inevitable that there will be chaos. ” When Char said this, he suddenly saw a sarcastic smile on the corner of the governor's wife's mouth, and his heart moved, and then his face turned red.
He said that the Rantis people "eat the fat in their mouths and refuse to spit it out easily", this word, if it is used on themselves, it seems to be very appropriate, they swallowed the Corsican Military Region, and they have no intention of sharing the profit with this woman's mind at all, they delay the other party's journey along the way, and when they entered the city, they also had the idea of not seeing each other, thinking about this woman's cleverness, they naturally know it.
Fortunately, the governor's wife only smiled slightly, and then put away her smile, probably not because she didn't want to be entangled with Char at this time.
She only groaned slightly, and then said: "Now that the siege of Yanjing has been lifted, then those areas in the south of the empire that are still directly under the control of the empire can send people to clean up the places and reorganize the local garrison to enrich the army."
After all, the empire is deep-rooted, and the appeal of the royal family is still there, as long as the siege of Osgilia is lifted, it is not too difficult to raise another army with an imperial order.
After all, the empire still has some territory in its hands. ” Speaking of this, the governor's wife looked at Char: "Marshal, I will personally visit you this time, what is my intention, I think you should also be clear."
Char squinted his eyes, a trace of fine light flashed in his eyes, and at this moment, where was there still a half-point rough appearance, and then he pursed the corners of his lips: "You mean to lead the army to the king" "If we go now, it can be regarded as a charcoal in the snow."
The Governor's wife was blunt: "If you wait any longer, with General Adric's talent, you will naturally be able to pull out a force, and when the time comes, it will be the icing on the cake, and the weight will be very different."
Speaking of this, the governor's wife said lightly: "You are General Adric's old subordinate, so naturally you don't have to worry about this layer, but I, up and down in the Besta Military Region, have no friendship with Yanjing."
In an instant, Char understood the woman's intentions.
The current situation of the Besta Military Region is indeed very delicate.
The Besta Military Region has openly separated from the group of the Red Round Table before, according to the plan of the governor's wife, of course, it is to accumulate strength and wait for the opportunity, it is best to get in touch with Yanjing and get a legal identity and title After all, Besta was among the rebels before But the problem is that the governor's wife did not expect that the rebels would break through the sneak attack of Osgilliatius so quickly, which was originally an accident.
Knowing that Osgilia was breached, no matter how smart the governor's wife was, she had to have some doubts in her heart to Yanjing to break the city, the national fortune of the Byzantine Empire, ten out of ten has already died, nine out of nine, even if the governor's wife was not optimistic about the rebels before, she didn't expect the rebels to really be able to break through Yanjing in her calculations, Osgilia has a famous general like Adrick in charge, and there is also a strong foreign aid from Landis, and the rebels have made major mistakes one after another, and the situation has long been inclined to the empire.
Because of this, she made up her mind to change her court, break away from the rebels she believed would be defeated, and try to revert to the side of the Empire.
Unexpectedly, just when she was full of confidence, Osgilia actually broke the news, which was a big blow to this woman's heart Even after getting the news of the destruction of Yanjing City, for a while, there were many voices of doubt about the governor's wife in the Besta Military Region, questioning the mistakes of the governor's wife's previous decisions.
She returned to the governor's palace of the military region to clean up the situation, and it took some time to calm down the internal twists and turns.
But then things took a turn for the worse, and the rebels, who were already looking to win the war in one step, actually lost again, and the good situation was enough to prove that Hughes and those guys in El Salvador were indeed not the ones who could do it.
But just when she got the news and the governor's wife finally suppressed the dissenting voices inside, Char in the north had already leveled the Red Snow Army in one fell swoop at a lightning speed This completely messed up the overall plan of the Governor's wife You know, the situation has changed a lot before she can wait for the moment she needs And the most terrible thing is that at this moment, the Besta Military Region is suddenly in an awkward position She has left the rebel camp, but she has not yet been truly recognized by the Empire For the rebels, the Besta Military District is a "traitor", but for the Empire, the Besta Military District is a "rebel".
If the empire is in danger, she Besta Military Region sends troops to the king of Qin, even if she bears the reputation of "rebels", the empire will definitely accept them without hesitation.
But now that the Landis army has entered the country, the rebels are on the verge of collapse.
The most difficult time for the empire is in the past, and at this time, if the Besta Military Region sticks it up again, people can't look at you, do you really believe you, or two words Taking a step back, even if the empire accepts the surrender of the Besta Military Region, but the "timing" is not right, if it was sent in the snow before, it can be said that you are sincere, but now that the rebels are defeated, if you post it again, it will inevitably be regarded as a wall grass to think about, and if you want to get off the thief ship again and re-board this "official ship" of the empire, you have to pull this Marshal Char After all, he is a genuine "marshal of the Northern Military Region of the Empire", and he can "control the northern counties" in the name of "controlling the northern counties".
The governor's wife did not know that Char's title was self-proclaimed.
After all, in the eyes of others, this Char's Excellency was born in the right seed, Adric's descendant, and was appreciated by the emperor, and it seems that there is still a little unclear relationship with the royal family Char and the marriage of Her Royal Highness Adeline, but the news has already made a lot of fanfare.
At this time, can you still find a "royalist" with a corrected background and a more stable position than Marshal Char Instead of risking suspicion to stick to Oscuria, it is better to hug the thigh of Marshal Char in the near future.
If you pull this Marshal Char to do it together, then after the incident, the title of a "King of Qin" in the Besta Military Region is absolutely indispensable Otherwise, in your current situation, the rebels will not want to see you, and the empire will not recognize you as who you are "Send troops to Oskiria, King Qin."
The governor's wife stared at Char: "Lord Marshal, you have a great victory over the Chixue Army, as long as you allocate 3,000 elite cavalry under your command, I, the Besta Military Region, are willing to send 7,000 cavalry."
As soon as our two families joined forces, we went to King Osgillia to supply military expenses along the way, and I, the Besta Military Region, took on the post of commander-in-chief of even this coalition army, and I was appointed by you, the Marshal, and I, the Besta Military District, would like to obey the orders of the Marshal. ” Char immediately understood what the woman meant.
The two families jointly sent troops, made up 10,000 cavalry, galloped to the aid of 10,000 cavalry of King Osgilia, and the supply costs along the way were borne by the Besta Military Region, and as long as the 10,000 cavalry arrived in Osgilia, I am afraid that there is no need to really fight 10,000 cavalry, and the deterrent power is naturally not small, and I am afraid that even the fight may not really need to be fought, as long as 10,000 cavalry swing outside the city, it is enough to shake the enemy, even if it is a great achievement Char is Adric's descendant, so naturally it is not difficult to be recognized and accepted by Adric, and when the time comes, the Besta Military Region can take advantage of the situation and change his identity To be continued 〗Hanyu Pinyin "" is simple and easy to remember:
