Of course, that's just what happens on the first or second day.
You know, for such a country in the Arctic Circle, their survival materials are already very scarce, and now once these 50,000 troops come ashore, whether they are captured or for other reasons, they always have to eat.
The queen of Iceland knew that this would not be a long-term solution, so it was a seemingly victorious but a big defeat to give them food and let her soldiers go hungry.
In this case, the Viking warriors had already shared half of their daily food with them.
Their intention is to be kind to everyone, and although you are defeated, we never kill our captives.
This caused a very serious problem, the country of Iceland could not afford to raise 50,000 prisoners of war when it came, and they really could not afford to raise their heads.
They can't show in front of everyone that their country can't even serve two meals.
Of course, the officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are not able to eat, but in such a situation, if they are not hungry, they have the possibility of all the happy endings in the future.
Half of the 50,000 people are really going to starve to death, and Lin Changfa, as the main general, naturally can't escape the involvement, he can't watch his soldiers starve to death, he hopes that his soldiers are the Tang Ying'er who died on the battlefield.
Of course, it was also his strategy to let everyone eat more, because in his impression, he had never seen a country whose army could not eat, but such a thing happened here.
Here, both farmers and traders, their food rations are very limited.
Especially in such a cold winter, the food stored in the summer and autumn is only enough to survive the cold season, and there is no surplus food available.
"I can't stand it, I can't eat enough" "We can't eat enough, since you came, you're hungry, we're hungry."
The fish in the sea are not easy to catch, and in such a cold season, their icebreakers are not easy to go to sea.
The situation was even worse when a sudden burst of cold air from the Arctic Circle appeared a few days earlier.
You don't want to eat, and of course, you need to wear clothes.
These prisoners of war are really hard to serve Regret it now?
It's really too late to regret now, give us plenty of water and food and clothing, and we'll go now.
We don't want to be in the company of you blood-drinking people here Lin Changfa met the Queen of Iceland on the morning of the fifth day.
It was a very strong fortress, but its surface was covered with a depth of about two feet of snow, and the snow was falling all the time, so it didn't need to be cleaned.
In his opinion, this castle, known as the Snow Igloo, is still very large, it is not like the castles built by other European countries, basically if you capture a few battlements, you will have no defense.
His first impression of the castle was that if it was attacked, it might not be the first time to take it, because each floor of the castle was a line of defense, and each battlement could contain enough soldiers to fire arrows or cast hidden weapons.
There are thousands of battlements alone, and that's just the tip of the iceberg under the heavy snow.
It appears that there are even more towering buildings on top of it.
Of course, they're now in the clouds.
Not visible at all.
The conversation with Queen Brenhill is also simple, and it is done in a small stone-cast palace.
Why don't you have food?
Yes, Your Majesty, we were without food, but then we were covered in fog and then we lost our way.
Of course, defeat is defeat, but at this time, Lin Changfa naturally knew what Her Majesty was worried about, and the beautiful woman full of European style standing in front of him had handsome eyebrows and cold eyes, if she hadn't deliberately reminded her that she was the king of the whole country, and deliberately kept a certain distance from her in your heart, then, you would definitely fall in love with her for the first time.
To put it simply, what she can bring to you is too much match for the icy scene outside.
Her handsome and cold aura is not hidden inside, but exposed, looking at these tall and mighty warriors standing beside her, Lin Changfa really can't guess how this queen, who is obviously much petite, gets along with them on weekdays.
How these beasts were taught by her sharp and amorous eyes with a cold aura.
He only knew that they listened to her master's words, and with a look from her master, they could understand her intentions.
This tacit understanding made Lin Changfa have to be in awe of this woman from the bottom of his heart.
Yes, she was just a woman, but she was surrounded by a herd of beasts, all of which listened to her very well.
This is a kind of information transmission.
When this cold reality was transmitted to Lin Changfa's eyes, their conversation was indeed not over.
It's just that as the commander-in-chief of the navy of the Tang Dynasty, a title that his own prince has given full trust, he can't bow to this woman.
In his former career as a pirate, let alone bow his head, even if he kneeled in front of the officers and soldiers, he would not hesitate to do it, because that was the first step to protect his own life and the safety of his brother.
But the current situation is completely different, even if this woman wants to kill all the 50,000 soldiers, they will not be able to lower the noble head of the Tang Dynasty.
Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated!
This is a little will to fight that Lin Changfa has complicatedly considered and imposed on himself in his heart at this time.
You go, but you can't go When he heard this, he finally understood the other party's intentions.
Fifty thousand soldiers can go, but the senior generals in the army and themselves cannot leave here.

He knew what that meant, but when he heard the other man clearly, he laughed with satisfaction.
Thirty-five high-ranking generals, including themselves, can naturally afford to support these people.
And they also achieved their purpose, which was either to make these 50,000 people loyal to them or simply to make them their captives and to feed them unconditionally.
For such a small and weak country, that is very unrealistic.
To let them go back is to give them a way to live, and also to give themselves a way to live.
Although I don't accept Datang in my heart, the things that are manifested on the outside are very opposite.
After the 50,000 soldiers and seamen had eaten their fill, he appointed 100 senior junior officers as commanders of the fleet and told them to return to the ports of France.
They also trust them very much, and if they explain to these people, they will definitely be brought back to Datang as soon as possible, and brought back to the mouth of the regent Li Yanyu who sent them out.
Of course, Brenhill also prescribes a condition that seems impossible at all.
That is, let the so-called king of your country, or the Son of Heaven, personally come here with gold and silver treasures to rescue you.
If they really want you to live, then they have to.
Is it possible?
Lin Changfa thinks it can't be!
But when the news came back to Datang three months later, Li Yanyu thought it could.
