Chapter 767: From Hero to Enemy

However, it seems that the Baltic Empire has won the battle, but there are still some discordant notes, and not all people are willing to succumb to the iron horse of the Baltic Empire and want to spend the rest of their lives in such a stable and peaceful life.

Some people would rather shed their last drop of blood on the battlefield with a weapon, and after leaving their hometown and stepping on the battlefield, the only thing they have in their brains is to think about how to defeat the enemy.

Many of these armies are already scattered and routed enemies on the battlefield, who admit that on the battlefield, in a head-to-head engagement, they are indeed no match for the soldiers of the Baltic Empire, and they admit that the soldiers of the Baltic Empire have the ability and will to defeat them.

However, none of this can and should not constitute a reason for them not to fight, to lay down their arms and choose to surrender, and if this is why they are still holding on, they will answer steadfastly - for their glory

The soldiers of the Baltic Empire were able to understand each other's thoughts, and many of them believed that if they put themselves in the other side's place, they would still make the same choice in the end.

However, they will not spare their hands, in their minds, they must go all out against the enemy, and do not leave the enemy with any hope, because this is not only for the respect of the enemy, but also for their own honor.

In essence, these stragglers who have been broken into pieces are not weak, and those who can survive such a brutal battle cannot be weak no matter how you look at it.

In terms of equipment, they are actually not bad, and when retreating from the battlefield, they get enough equipment from the hands of enemies and allies to keep them fighting for a longer time.

The material aspect is also not difficult to solve, with their familiarity with the area, they can easily get supplies from the forest and the river.

Of course, having already failed once, they gave up the possibility of fighting the Baltic Empire, knowing that even if they resorted to a sneak attack, it would still be difficult for them to defeat the regular army of the Baltic Empire.

Unable to defeat the regular army, the only logistical supply lines left in the Baltic Empire could be targeted, and if they succeeded once, they would have enough supplies to move for a long time and reduce the pressure on the front line.

Although it was not organized, it has to be said that these sporadic attacks have indeed become a headache for the Baltic Empire, at least at the moment the Baltic Empire, which is focused on dealing with the frontal battlefield, has not had time to pay attention to them.

Because the attacks of these guys are only a problem, and they can only be a problem, the logistics supply lines of the Baltic Empire are basically carried out through rivers, and they can only walk on land for very little time.

Moreover, the Baltic Empire sent a luxurious lineup to guard their supply lines, and not only centaurs and gnolls, but also the occasional dragon could be seen in the sky.

In the face of such a luxurious lineup, those stragglers did not give up, and most of the time they adopted a cooperative approach, allowing a few squads to attract attention, and the others to take the opportunity to grab those supplies.

In addition, they try to destroy roads and bridges as much as possible to slow down the movement of these Baltic Empire logistics supply troops, which is the method they learned from the Baltic Empire, which was done by the Baltic Empire in the winter of last year and in the spring of this year.

Of course, the Attila Empire is also supporting these people, and the results of these things they did in the back are still seen by several knights, so the necessary support has always been there.

It is not only the Attila Empire that is supporting, but the United Kingdom is also supporting these people, and they are indeed now anxious about the contradictions in their work, but the action against the Baltic Empire has not stopped.

Now that Sigourney was ready to leave the United Kingdom and go to the Attila Empire to meet with her parents, it was no longer time to worry about reputation, and in the face of an enemy like the Baltic Empire, no one could fight against it.

Sigourne's arrival was welcomed by the Attila Empire, and the most loyal troops were sent to meet Sigoarne in order to ensure that the news was not known to the Baltic Empire.

The Baltic Empire did not know about this, because the Imperial side believed from the beginning that the two countries had been united and were already fighting together against the Baltic Empire.

After completing the reception, Sigourney arrived in front of Attila the next day, the original castle built by the Yaats, who had no choice but to restore and expand the castle that had been destroyed by the war because it was uninhabitable.

Walking through the streets of this city, you can see Scandinavian buildings and decorations everywhere, and everywhere you can see solemn-looking soldiers with weapons.

After several rigorous checks to determine that Sigourney was the person she was, and that there was no threat to Attila, Sigourney was allowed to come to Attila.

Because several knights were out there leading the army in battle against the Baltic Empire, Atila was the only one left to meet Sigoa, which was exactly what Sigourney had expected.

She didn't actually want to meet with the knights, and based on her past understanding, she knew that the knights only had the right to advise Attila, and it was Attila who really made the decision.

In addition, in her mind, those knights were more difficult than Attila, and if those knights were here, then the benefits she expected to gain might be reduced.

She did come here with sincerity, and she wanted to truly unite with the Attila Empire and jointly deal with the threat of the Baltic Empire, but it did not affect her desire to get enough benefits from the Attila Empire.

Eventually, Sigourney was taken to a large hall with a bright red carpet under her feet, and the surrounding walls were covered with drawings and carvings that told the story of the Attila Empire's past glory, such as the time when it ruled most of the north at its peak.

Sigourney arrived and looked up at Attila sitting on the throne, it was the first time she had seen Attila so closely, and it hadn't changed much from years ago.

Her brown skin made her look incompatible with the people who lived in this land, and her white hair should not appear on a young girl's body, but her smooth skin made her look very young.

Atila didn't have any jewelry on her body, and she didn't even have a crown on her head, which didn't match the identity of the king at all, and just from the appearance, it was impossible to imagine that this was actually the Atila who could stop crying.

Without too much nonsense, the two entered into negotiations, but it was more Sigourney who said, Attila was listening, Sigoura's purpose was very simple, that is, he wanted Atira to send more troops and take the initiative to engage the Baltic Empire, rather than a passive defense like now, which was divided one by one by the Baltic Empire using such tactics, surrounded, and then occupied and conquered.

Attila didn't say much about it, just nodding her head and occasionally agreeing without making any promises, which made Sigourney feel like she was wasting her time, as if she was facing a hedgehog.

While Sigourney was struggling to communicate with Attila, the situation in Scandinavia was still changing, and Siegmund took advantage of the Baltic Empire's efforts to focus on the Attila Empire and managed to achieve a victory.

Although the scale of the victory was very small, it only managed to recapture a town and repel the garrisons of the Baltic Empire, which were all original companions, and now surrendered to the Baltic Empire, which is not commendable in terms of combat effectiveness.

However, victory is victory, and in the eyes of outsiders, this victory does not have much water, and now that the Attila Empire is losing and retreating, this victory is even more valuable.

Because of this victory, some problems within the United Kingdom have been alleviated, and even the elves and dwarves have temporarily settled down in the face of this victory, and they are not making trouble.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Goam embarked on a massive conscription in the country, requiring the various tribes and races to provide the army with a sufficient number of soldiers of the right age to join the war against the Baltic Empire.

This is a very helpless thing, from the soldiers below to King Gom did not expect that the Attila Empire would fall into a disadvantage so easily, and the persistence that was promised before did not exist at all.

This completely disrupted Goom's plan to compete with the fishermen for profit, and he had to mobilize the entire country to squeeze as many domestic resources as possible to find a way to counterattack the Baltic Empire.

Now the territory they occupy is the Norwegian mountains, and they still have a lot of advantages to attack from high to low, and more importantly, there are a large number of waterfalls here, because of the existence of these waterfalls, the sea tribes of the Baltic Empire cannot come up, cannot threaten the logistics supply lines of the United Kingdom well, and cannot cut off the connection between various cities, as they did against the Attila Empire, against the United Kingdom.

After conquering the first town, Siegmund did not stop at all, and immediately marched with his army to the next destination, choosing to defend weaker towns and villages, rather than large cities with walls and moats.

Siegmund knew very well the power in his hands, and knew that the power in his hands could not easily capture a well-defended city, and even if he captured it, he would definitely suffer heavy losses, and he could not defend it with the strength in his hands.

He was now intending to use his constant victories to increase his prestige, so that the entire country, the whole Scandinavia, and even the entire Northlands who were unwilling to submit to the Baltic Empire would see that their enemies could still be defeated.

It seems that there is no difference between a win rate and a win rate of one percent, but in essence, it represents a glimmer of hope in despair, and a symbol of their efforts from being useless to being able to succeed.

The Baltic Empire did not react much, and most of the troops sent to fight Sigmund were troops who had surrendered in Scandinavia.

These armies don't actually have much combat power, and if they were willing to fight, they wouldn't have chosen to surrender to the Baltic Empire.

However, in the event of a war with the United Kingdom, these armies were always able to burst out with impressive combat effectiveness, because as traitors to the United Kingdom, these men had no way out, and they had no choice but to turn their backs on the Baltic Empire and assert their loyalty by targeting the United Kingdom.

This was essentially deliberate on the part of the Empire, because only by allowing them to engage in fierce battles with each other, to engage in brutal battles, to water hatred with death and blood, would the rule in Scandinavia be strong enough.

The Empire never wanted to see a united force in Scandinavia, even if it was an army that had surrendered, and the Empire did not want to see them come together for various reasons, which would not be conducive to the Empire's rule and would sow the seeds of rebellion.

In fact, the Empire's strategy proved to be correct, and in the territories occupied by the Empire, those who chose to surrender began to sharply hate the United Kingdom and the army brought by Siegmund.

After Siegmund had captured their city with his army, they were not greeted by cheers, but by cold countenances, where they could not replenish even a little of supplies.

Siegmund's army then resorted to plundering to replenish their supplies, because in their eyes, these people were no longer nationals of the country, but traitors who had given up their honor and defected to the Baltic Empire in order to survive.

In many people's traditional beliefs, it is permissible to treat traitors no matter how vicious they are, and if it were not for the fact that Siegmund still had a certain prestige in the army, then it was not just a plunder, but a real massacre.

Looting must have brought not understanding, but deeper hatred, and the word of what this army had done soon spread throughout the Baltic Empire, making those who chose to surrender more willing to think of themselves as a Baltic.

Not only that, but it was not only the United Kingdom army that they hated, but even Sigmund began to be spurned by them, and in the hearts of these people, Sigmund's prestige plummeted.

Originally, he was a hero second only to Beowulf, but now he has become the object of resentment from many people, and some people even suggested that Siegmund had deviated from his bloodline and should not continue to be named after Barusenge.
