Preparations for the Baltic Empire are still ongoing, the economic blockade, espionage are still in the early stages of the war, and the enemy from the Baltic Empire has appeared in their immediate vicinity without anyone noticing.

The cold has made all the lakes and rivers have formed a thick layer of ice, but under the thick ice, there are still rivers flowing, and there are still freshwater aquarists carrying out activities and lives.

At the same time, this little gap also gave the guests from the Baltic Empire an opportunity to travel upstream through the estuaries of the rivers to the various lakes and begin to build camps for war.

The thick layer of ice easily concealed their traces, and when they looked down from the ice, they could not see the bottom of the river at all, and the water tribes who originally lived here were defeated under the attack of the Baltic Sea tribes, and they were unable to organize a formed army to resist.

These aquarists could not even find a place to escape, because the thick ice completely cut off the possibility of them escaping to the shore, and either they joined the enemy or became a corpse.

The Baltic Sea Tribes will begin to build camps in the lakes, and with some of them, they will lock off all the rivers and lakes in the spring and start attacking the cities near the rivers and lakes.

This is a full-scale war, and all the forces of Scandinavia will temporarily put aside their former contradictions and hatreds, and work together to resist the invasion of the Baltic Empire and block the progress of the invaders.

The aggressor, as one side of the attack, will do everything possible to prevent the Scandinavian allies from the outside and stir up contradictions between the various Scandinavian forces from the inside.

Winter, just winter, this is the last calm winter, and when spring comes, war will begin, and the empire will go from darkness to light, officially declaring war on the countries of Scandinavia.

The long winter passed, and because of what the Baltic Empire had done, many people in Scandinavia could not survive the winter, and they were either starved to death or froze to death.

Under the propaganda of the United Kingdom, the survivors have targeted their hatred in Scandinavia, while the remnants of Yeat have been ostracized by other races this winter.

They were treated as part of the Baltic Empire, treated as future enemies, and the Jeats did not bother to argue that their country had been destroyed by their own people, whether in the Scandinavian Empire or in the United Kingdom, they were not accommodated, excluded outsiders.

The Yeats also had no sense of belonging to the Scandinavian Empire or the United Kingdom, and some of them were still nostalgic for the glory of the Beowulf era, and the children were also under the influence of the old people, and they did not forget their resentment about Upland every day.

However, to say that they have made contact with the Baltic Empire is really wronging them, they still have the reserve of the Yeats, they are not willing to join the Baltic Empire, and they still want to restore the glory days of the Jeats.

With the Yaats to blame for all the problems, the internal tensions within the United Kingdom began to be delayed, and with Sigmund in command, the United Kingdom army fought several deadly battles with the Attilas.

It greatly affected the actions of Hassan, and the contradictions between races and races were thus controlled within a certain range, without further expansion, and did not really affect the army.

Since Hassan, as an ally and mercenary of the Baltic Empire, has received the benefits of the Empire, of course they will do their best to complete the tasks cost the Empire, but they are not in a hurry, they are all waiting for a better opportunity.

They are poisonous snakes hidden in the dark, and what they need to pay attention to is when to kill each other, whether it is ten or a hundred times, they will only choose the one they feel is most appropriate, because the poison of poisonous snakes can kill the enemy once at a time.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't cause a civil war, the contradictions within the United Kingdom are only temporarily suppressed, they don't really disappear, they don't really disappear, they don't really get resolved, and at some point, they will naturally erupt.

For example, when the United Kingdom is facing failure, when those races blame each other for failure, the existing contradictions can easily become the fuse of conflict.

The various peoples living in this land are not very good-tempered, very irritable, and they prefer to use violence to solve problems rather than words, and the conflict of words will soon turn into a physical conflict, and it will become a matter of course to draw knives against each other.

Hassan already had the idea, many of them had already blended into the United Kingdom army, and some of them had successfully become officers, and when the war really broke out, they could naturally continue to rise through the ranks, eventually become generals, and then, by some coincidence, serve as a fuse to trigger the contradictions that had been hidden.

No, provoking such a contradiction can be done before it is finally exposed, as long as they can get a high enough position, they can keep sending the United Kingdom's intelligence to the Baltic Empire's army, and they can also coincidentally get some victories, so that the United Kingdom's army will be in a more disadvantageous situation, and create some opportunities for the empire to win a big victory.

It would have been better if he had been given the opportunity to kill Sigmund because with Sigmund had died, Siegrud's position in the Empire would have become irreplaceable, and he could have used Barusenge to claim ownership of the entire Scandinavian Peninsula with the support of the Empire.

The United Kingdom, which uses the Atila Empire as the enemy to win over the tribes and lords under the United Kingdom, uses the Scandinavia of Scandinavia, splits the forces of the coalition, and launches a war against the Atila Empire, without any countermeasures, really gives too many opportunities to the Hassans, and there are too many places for the Hassans to use.

The long and cruel winter has passed, and spring has come in everyone's eyes, and many people feel that with the arrival of spring, life will be better, and they will be able to escape the cold and hunger and celebrate their survival again.

But

The beasts that had awakened from hibernation, dragging their hungry and weak bodies, began to search for food, but there was not enough food to feed the hunger of so many beasts in this barren, long-cold land.

And so, cannibalism and mutual attacks began in this land, but cannibalism and mutual attacks were only those individual beasts, and the beasts of families and ethnic groups began to storm the towns of the United Kingdom.

For the sensitive noses of the beasts had already smelled the smell of food wafting from the towns, the food that had been stored for the next war, enough to keep the beasts out of hunger and weakness.

Beasts overwhelmed by appetite and hunger began to storm the towns, but their onslaught could not achieve much except to leave a single corpse in the field, and these towns were built very well in the days of the Scandinavian Empire to cope with the attacks of the beasts, and were equipped with a large number of defensive equipment for possible war.

Scandinavians are already familiar with the attack of the beast tide, after all, there is an attack every spring, and they are not familiar with it, they all know that the attack of the beast tide will get weaker and weaker over time, and the corpse of the dead beast will fill the stomach of the living beast.

After filling their stomachs and getting rid of their appetite and hunger, the beasts will not continue to attack the towns, because the beasts also know the difficulties of those towns, and if they continue to attack, they will most likely die outside the walls of the town.

But the Scandinavians got one thing wrong, and this spring they had to deal with not only the hungry beasts from the forests and wilderness, but also the Baltic Empire, which had unmistakably shown hostility towards them.

The beast is just an innocuous disease, and real trouble is already creeping in

The armies of the Baltic Empire, who had been hiding around them, began to attack the surrounding towns because of the melting of the ice and snow, and their first goal was to build bridges over the various rivers and cut off the connection between them.

The Baltic and North Sea sides launched simultaneous attacks, targeting all the towns along the coast of Scandinavia, and more precisely, the ports and the ships that docked in them.

The war suddenly came to Scandinavia, even if they had been prepared before, but they were still stunned by the attack of the Sea Clan, and they didn't know how to deal with it at all, and there was no way to talk about counterattack.

The Sea Clan will not leave the sea and rivers at all, and they will not be able to enter the sea and rivers to fight, and many times they can only stand on the shore in vain, throwing stones and arrows at the sea and rivers.

Of course, this will not defeat the Sea Clan, but it is simply a waste of their ammunition and let their enemies get more supplies to use on their bodies in the future battles.

There were angry people who rushed into the sea, but after a few minutes the corpse was floating on the surface, and under the watchful eyes of the people, several sharks began to eat the corpse, and in a few moments there was only one skeleton that slowly sank into the deep sea.

It is even more infeasible to go to sea on a ship, those sea beasts that are larger than ships can easily destroy ships to pieces, even if they are sturdy warships specially used for naval battles, they cannot last long, they cannot leave people's sight, and they become wrecks floating on the surface of the sea.

The United Kingdom, with its long coastline, suffered greatly, but the Attila Empire fared much better, because they simply did not build any ports, built any bridges, let alone lost anything in the first place.

Letters of help were sent to Gorm's desk like snowflakes, but neither he nor Sigourney could find a good solution, no matter how strong the army on land was, it was impossible to defeat the Sea Clan in the sea, in the rivers, in the lakes, that was not what they were good at.

At this time, Gaom couldn't help but miss Drake again, if she was still alive and the North Sea had not been conquered by the Baltic Empire, it would be impossible for the Sea Clan to be so rampant to such a point, and they would not be so aggrieved, and they would not even be able to fight back and fight back.

Some people may ask, why not send a legendary spellcaster to deal with those sea tribes, there are too many magic to easily solve those sea tribes.

Gohm did think so, but he was stopped by Sigourney

The reason is very simple, the huge population base of the Baltic Sea Tribe, I don't know how many legends have been born, these legends have not joined the battle before, but it does not mean that they will not join the battle.

There aren't many cards in the United Kingdom's hands right now, and the Legendary Caster is one of the most important ones, and every Legendary Caster is a strategic weapon for the United Kingdom, and it must not be so easily broken.

Moreover, Sigourney believes that these Sea Clan's attacks will only continue to weaken the power of the United Kingdom, so that the Empire will gain more advantages in the next battle, and will not be able to become a decisive factor in this war.

The United Kingdom needs to integrate all its forces, complete the integration of power as much as possible through the attacks of these sea tribes, and when the time comes to the real war with the Empire, the entire United Kingdom army can only have one voice, the voice of Gohm.

Such a policy is indeed correct, but sometimes it brings severe pain, and Sigoarney's arrogance brings not only cohesion, but also the anger and hatred of the people below, who hate the Baltic Empire, which is the culprit of all this, but also the United Kingdom, which has done nothing.

Gohm's reign was in crisis before the war began, and because everyone was focused on the Baltic Empire, they subconsciously ignored these crises, believing that they could solve the immediate crisis by only repelling the invasion of the Baltic Empire.

Sigonay's wisdom is indeed hard to ignore, but her high position still makes her ignore the demands of the people below, the Scandinavians have never been a subservient people, not before, not now, and not since.

It is true that the blood of Barusenger is a great possession of righteousness, and it is true that they are descendants of the gods they believe in, but this is not a reason for blind convincing, for these people living in Scandinavia, faith is not the same as obedience and non-resistance.
