Scorched earth tactics of the fortified wilderness
"Dodge, dodge... His Excellency the General is here. Don't continue to make a fuss here?" and several of Fried's heavily armored guards stepped forward, reprimanding the ruffians standing around, and opening a way for the rebel general in the crowd.
"Oh—— the stink of Jintama!" when a heavily armored guard approached an old man covered in mud, with tattered clothes and a big handful ——of beard and hair, sitting next to the stinking ditch, constantly pulling out disgusting filth from the gutter, and smirking all over his face, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose with a disgusting smell of corruption, and spat his head straight to the ground.
"Hmph, hahahaha... It's delicious, it's delicious. Would you like to have some, would you like to taste it?" Then old Winchester shoved the filth out of the gutter into his mouth, and tasted it with relish, and as he got up, handed the rest of the thing in his hand to the two heavily armored guards closest to him.
"You crazy old man, go away——" "Stay away from me—— the two heavily armored guards saw each other's extremely disgusting and sloppy appearance, smelling a disgusting smell, and shouted loudly as they quickly retreated.
"Who the hell is this Hanako?How did you run into the barracks to make a public show, and put on a public show of eating?" Fielder couldn't recognize who old Winchester was for a while, standing at a distance, and stretched out his hand to the corrupt aristocrat who ate, and asked the guards beside him in confusion.
"General Qiyu, this man seems to be the Duke of Winchester. It is said that he had gone crazy half a month ago, not only eating, but also rolling in the mud all day and night, and never bathing. Therefore, even if someone wanted to hit him, he didn't dare to approach. When a guard next to him heard this, he clenched his hands into fists.
"Oh, that's what happened, since it's His Excellency the Duke, such an honorable person. How can you make him eat!?—— and make him look like this, what kind of body can he become?——
Isn't this telling the world that I, Fried, am unkind, narrow-minded, and deliberately tortured people by all means!?Who made you do this?—— "When Fried heard this, his eyes rolled and he was completely annoyed, and he pointed his finger at the faces of the guards around him, and loudly reprimanded and reprimanded.
"Your Excellency the General is angry. "Your Excellency, General, is angry. ”… Seeing this, the nearby guards knelt on one knee and apologized with their hands clenched into fists. Seeing this, the soldiers and ruffians who had not been afraid of the excitement before also learned from the guards, knelt on one knee, and lowered their heads with their hands in fists, and did not dare to say anything in shame. There was a sudden silence all around.
"Your Excellency, General. The responsibility does not lie with the military masters. It was my father, who was bewitched by White, who felt guilty for several days, didn't think about tea, didn't want to eat, and couldn't sleep after tossing and turning;
I wanted to commit suicide many times to apologize, but I was stopped by the old slave and persuaded me hard, and finally collapsed because I couldn't bear the pressure mentally, and I became what I am today. This is all because the old slave did not take good care of him, and the mistakes he made have nothing to do with the military masters. ”
The old servant of Winchester, dressed in shabby clothes, crawled on all fours to the ground in front of Field's eyes, and with tears in his eyes, he did not dare to raise his head to defend the guards at the scene. He knew that if Old Winchester wanted to save his life, he must not offend any of Fred's cronies.
"You're the one who just shouted and attracted them all, right?" Seeing this, Fried lowered his raised arm and asked kindly.
"Exactly. The old servant replied without raising his head.
"Don't excuse them. General Ben knows that this is not your fault. Otherwise, you wouldn't have deliberately shouted in the barracks to lure General Ben over. Firid understood very well what the other party was thinking, and continued to persuade with a calm expression.
"No, this is the old slave's fault! The old slave couldn't think of any other way, he failed to take care of the duke, and he didn't report the master's situation to the general's Excellency in time. When the old servant heard this, he continued to lie on his stomach on the ground, accusing himself without raising his head.
"Good. Then I will not hold them accountable. Stand up and look up. Tell General Ben what you and your lord need?" Seeing this, Fried forgave his subordinates by going downhill and instructed the old servant.
"I'm just a grass people, and I can't repay the favor I have received from the lord for many years, and I don't need you to give me anything. As for the master, he needs to take a bath and brush his body, change his clothes, improve his diet, and be served and cared for by a special person. Nope. ”
The old servant then stood up, glanced back at Old Winchester, bowed his head, and answered Freid's question carefully. When he said "no", he was sitting stupidly next to the gutter, and old Winchester, who swallowed, instinctively raised his head, and then continued to bow his head and nibble on.
"Don't you want to go back to Bavaria?"
"It's really gone. Bavaria is now being invaded by armies of winged men and orcs. The old slave resolutely went back, and it was also more auspicious. The old man is still wearing a sinful body, and he is sick like this, and he can't do without the old slave.
Therefore, it is better for the old slave and the old man to stay in the barracks, and when the general has eliminated the rebels and returned to destroy the army of the wingmen and orcs, it is not too late to return to Bavaria. The old servant replied humbly and respectfully.
"Good. This general will make you a commander of a thousand commanders, although he does not command the sergeants, but he will take the fortune of a thousand commanders. And reward you with 300 gold coins a month, and be sure to take good care of Lord Winchester. Wait until I take Klein City, and then I will fight Bavaria——"
From the words and deeds of the old servant, Freid had already seen that the other man was a rare man of loyalty, and that he was quite brave and talented, so with a wave of his hand, he conferred on him his official position and rewarded him with gold.
"Thank you, Your Excellency. The old slave will definitely live up to the expectations of His Excellency the General. When the old servant heard this, he bowed his head and bowed deeply to Firid.
"Long live Your Excellency General—— "... The officers and soldiers at the scene immediately stood up and shouted long live. Hearing this, Fried turned around contentedly and left.
"Old man, you are really good at being a man. If you have any difficulties in the future, call the little brother, and the little brother will come to help immediately. "Good man. Your Excellency the General and the old man are all good people. "Ladies and gentlemen. All of you are good people. In the future, please bother you more military masters and help the old slave take care of my master. ”
"That's natural, I don't have anything to say—— brothers, isn't it!?" "Yes——" "Louder, I didn't hear ——"... The old servant was immediately surrounded by the surrounding officers and soldiers, and they chatted and talked a lot.
"I said you, how could you have said that at that time! Fried has spoken, haven't we missed a good opportunity to return to Bavaria?" Old Winchester, dressed like a beggar, the old servant pulled him into a no-man's corner and rebuked him in a whisper.
"That's you, sir, I didn't see Firid's eyes at the time. If the old slave dares to mention it, return to Bavaria. Can we still stand here alive?" the old servant replied bluntly to his master.
"Forget it. Anyway, fortunately, you have also been made a thousand-captain by Fried, and in the future, you must spend money to hire a few more servants to take care of my lord. It has not been in vain that my Winchester family has rewarded your family and their ancestors for many generations. ”
When old Winchester heard this, he did not feel ashamed in his heart, but reminded the old servant of how much kindness his family had to each other.
At the same time, when Firid led the 110,000 Qinwang army, he entered the border of the "Duan Feierta Empire". I saw that the slightly larger towns along the road were all set on fire to non-residential buildings such as handicraft workshops, granaries, and shops.
The residential area is not without traces of arson, but only a small number of houses have been burned. The resulting fire was artificially extinguished. At the same time, large swaths of farmland on the outskirts of the city were burned. The raging flames poured out puffs of black smoke, obscuring the sky and the sun.
"Everyone, come and see, ——" "Everyone come and see—— "Qin Wangjun is here!" "Qin Wangjun is here!" "Ladies and gentlemen, it's okay." Have mercy on us. Let's enjoy the food——""Commander, let's enjoy the food——"...
Soon, on both sides of the avenue leading to Klein City, crowds of people poured in from the vicinity, all of them were hungry and yellow-skinned, holding bamboo poles and broken bowls, and they all welcomed the cries and beggars of Qin Wangjun...
"Hmph—Fried, don't you Qinwang army claim to be the teacher of benevolence and righteousness? See what else you can do?" After getting the news that King Qin's army had entered the territory of the "Duan Feierta Empire", the Emperor White sat on the former treasure seat of Clovence, smoking a cigar and thinking to himself.
"Report to —— Your Excellency, the disaster victims in front have blocked the way for our army. What should I do next?" a herald immediately reported the situation to Firid, who was in the rear of the army on horseback and rode a beast.
"How many people are there?" asked Shadow, who rode the beast and followed Firid.
"There are too many to count. The herald replied.
"Approximate numbers. "Shadow hints.
"Because, the victims are coming in a steady stream. Ranging from thousands to tens of thousands. The herald replied grimly.
"What now?" Shadow turned his head to look at Fried's expression.
"If the victims of the disaster flock to our army like this, the situation will not be good. Once the enemy army takes advantage of the situation to launch a sneak attack, it is easy to plunge our army into a passive scene of extreme chaos.
Shadow, you go and tell Croqin, and that Noyachenko to lead their 10,000 men, to transport some of the food, and slowly distribute it to the victims in front, and be sure to lure the victims away from the main force of our army, as far away as possible. Fried then gave orders to the man in black.
"Yes. Riding ——" Swift Shadow received the order, and immediately rode away on the beast.
"Lofe. Leave the main road with me with a large army, and retreat twenty miles, and set up camp. Firid then commanded, Lofe, who was sitting in a nearby carriage.
So, Kroqin and Noyachenko received an order, and they led 10,000 elven archers to transport a large amount of grain, and while distributing it to the victims, they lured them away from the main road, and tried to stay as far away as possible from the main force of King Qin's army.
Fried and Lofe commanded the main force of King Qin's army, retreated twenty miles, and set up camp near a pass. Shadow is responsible for directing the scouts, scouting the surrounding situation, and covering the heralds' dispatch and command, so that everything is organized and not chaotic.
