Chapter 091: The Clash of the Two Countries - The First Battle in the South
Suddenly there was a terrible scream in the quiet of the palace, but both the maids and the attendants had the same expressions, and it was clear that this was an ordinary but even frequent occurrence.
A besuming woman was being strangled by Andre's big hand around the neck, slapping the other party on the cheek with his hand while ravaging it, and Helenny's heart-rending screams spread through every corner of the dormitory.
AndrΓ© was so satisfied with his expedition that he pulled Helenny's hair and put her aside, took a glass of northern wine and moistened his throat, and threw the glass away.
Looking down at the muddy woman at his feet, Andre scolded: "Helenny, look what you've been up to lately? Why have all the elite summoners of the Capet family disappeared? Why did my Isis family's political enemies who should have been executed leave behind their descendants? That remnant was not only adopted by your Capet family, but now he is also the Earl of Galewind! What's next? Will the king tear the ground? Can you Capet family still help me? If you are not capable, don't be an official in the court, go home as soon as possible to nurse the child!"
Helenny, despite her bleeding knees and her slightly erected belly, prostrated at Andre's feet in panic, kissed Andre's toes, and said tremblingly: "No, don't! Don't let me go home with the children, I don't want to live in vain! Please believe me, the king! I still have a way! I will mobilize the family forces to go to Gale City to assassinate the woman named Lanya, I will resell some family property, and give all the money to the king for military expenses. β
Andre snorted coldly: "Your Capet family has disappointed me many times, I hope you can successfully eradicate that remnant of Gale Wind City this time, otherwise, even if you sell your property to support the army, it will be useless, because those are what your family should do! Okay, go back!"
Helenny returned to Capet Manor in despair, and saw the family maid coming to serve her, Helenny grabbed the maid's throat, looked at the maid with a strange expression, looked at the maid who was about to die, Heleni felt a trace of pleasure in her heart, and then pinched it hard, so that the maid lost her breath.
The other maids were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and shivered, and they didn't dare to catch their breath.
The next day, Helenny convened a family meeting to get a few weak members to hand over the family estate and contribute all the family's private soldiers.
Several families agreed to hand over their property, but did not directly agree to contribute private soldiers, and a few days later, the families fled.
Helenny sent the Praetorian Guard to hunt down the fugitives and bring back some of the fugitive family's heads.
Helenny let out a strange laugh as she stared at the men killed by the Praetorian Guard.
"Daughter, you can't go on like this, these families are all supporting you, if they don't support you, the Capet family is probably not yours!"
"Father, don't care, behind me is the king, and to resist me is to rebel against the king!
"Daughter, I heard that you are going to mobilize the power of your family to carry out a mission? You must know! There are so many of our forces left, are you sure you want to send them to Gale Wind?
"Father, there is no risk, no reward! I am now the Minister of State! The power in my hands can bring great benefits to the family."
"Daughter, don't blame Dad for saying you, so far, the benefits have not been seen, but the Capet family has been torn apart. If this continues, the Capetian family will be reduced to a second-rate or third-rate family, and will never be able to regain its former glory. Look.Mao.Line.Chinese.Text.Net. β
"Father, you may not know that my two children are of Kenan's seed, and one of them may become king in the future!"
"Who's the child in your womb? Let's not talk about it... Don't be too naΓ―ve! The eldest prince is ambitious and powerful, do you think you have the ability to fight him? Moreover, Kenan is dead, and who knows that these two children are his? I advise you not to take too risks! Helennie, this is the last time I will support you, the family power will be handed over to you, and I will go to the Snowy Country to participate in the peace talks, but I may not come back... β
"Dad, what did you say? Did you choose to flee to the Snowy Country? You know this is tantamount to treason! You are such a coward! I look down on you... β
"Child, the road to power is full of conspiracies, seemingly unlimited, but there are many murderous opportunities behind it... Okay, I'll leave tomorrow! This is a family secret order, and now it's up to you. β
Helenny stroked the cold token with her hand, and her eyes shone brightly: "Someone, arrange a chauffeur, I'm going to see the king." β
The next day, Helenny's father's head was hung at the head of the Dome of the Golden...
Helenny dispatched the elite of the family to take out several families who had problems with her, and swallowed up their family property and private soldiers.
A series of crazy behaviors have caused more members of the Capet family to start fleeing frantically, and to a certain extent, the Capetian family has been reduced to a second-rate family...
Helenny dispatched the remaining 200 elite troops to Gale City to assassinate Lanya, Helenny knew that she had no way out, she didn't want to spend the rest of her life ordinary, she wanted to make a big gamble with everything she had!
But she didn't know that although she seemed to be infinitely beautiful, she was just a chess piece in the hands of Lao Wang... Chess pieces do not have the right to gamble.
All of Helenny's efforts will be wasted in the near future, and her gloomy life is about to begin.
Sipson led the army to the south, compared to the dry weather in the north, the climate here is not cold but very humid, the humid air penetrates the skin into the bodies of all soldiers who are accustomed to the northern climate, including Cipson, everyone is shivering...
"Let the local officials come and see me, I need more food and warmth," Sipson said. Look, how do soldiers fight like this?"
A fat man with a fat head and big ears walked in in a cotton coat, knelt in front of the eldest prince and said, "Your Highness, are you looking for me?"
Sipson scolded: "After so many days, why haven't the food and cotton clothes been delivered... Are you officials eating dry food?"
The fat man said: "Your Highness, don't be angry, because some time ago, the rebels in the Gale Fortress caused a large amount of grain to be lost, and the new grain transport team is still on the way, because it snows in winter, the road is not easy to walk!
Sipson drew his long sword, put it across the fat man's neck, and said, "I didn't understand just now... β
The fat man was so frightened that he hurriedly changed his words: "Your Highness, there is! Yes! There is food and cotton clothes! I will get it in half a month!"
A few days later, a large number of troops were dispatched from the south and began to loot the rations of the already unsustainable civilian population, forcing the petty nobles to produce cotton clothes, collecting the cotton clothes of all the surrounding grassroots troops and supplying them to the prince's troops.
During this month and a half, a large number of civilians and basic soldiers fled, and began to flee to Meteorite City or Gale Fortress.
The cold weather made the soldiers eat a lot, and the dry firewood and cotton clothes couldn't keep up at all, and Sipson's eyes suddenly showed a cold gaze, it seemed that he could only start the war in advance...
After several lieutenants came to the barracks, Sipson said: "I heard that there were two peasant uprisings in the Giant Elephant Country some time ago, and I think this is a good time to send troops, if we wait for the strength of all sides of the Giant Elephant Country to recover, we will attack again, and the opponent's military strength will be strengthened!"
An adjutant general said: "The eldest prince, the rations of our parties have not yet been reached, and the morale of the army is also high. β
Sipson interrupted: "Okay, I want everyone to come up with their own opinions, not to put forward difficulties! Everyone can see the difficulties, it is useless to complain, I want an offensive plan!"
Everyone began to be silent, and Sipson sighed and said: "Send 50,000 people to find out the reality of the other party, everyone knows that the local elite troops have 50,000 people, but they are different from our tactics, and they don't want to be mixed by us, this time, I hope someone will lead them to attack the Giant Elephant Country, victory or defeat can be ignored... Is anyone willing to go?"
The adjutant who had just put forward his opinion said: "Great Prince, if victory or defeat does not matter, I am willing to lead the army to fight against the Colossus Kingdom." β
The corners of Cipson's mouth raised, and he smiled: "Okay! Then I will appoint you as the forward general, and immediately conquer the Giant Elephant Country!"
After Sang Kun greedily paid a huge amount of military salaries, his life was extremely chic! He even bought a northern enchantress with a lot of money and arranged for her to sing songs in the barracks every night.
But at this time, the troops of the Black Diamond Kingdom on the opposite side were abnormal.
After several frequent transfers, the previous soldiers were transferred, and the new troops seemed to be elite soldiers.
Is there going to be a war? It's good to start a war, you can reimburse all these troops in your hands, and then mess up the southern border, and sneak back to the territory to lead the private rebellion.
Sang Kun's eyes flashed with a crazy gaze, and he murmured: "Send out 50,000 troops to consume first!
This battle was fought very strangely, the soldiers on both sides didn't seem to want to play with their lives, everyone greeted each other's ancestors with knives and guns, but they just didn't move.
Under the urging of the two teams to supervise the rent, they finally made a symbolic gesture and returned to the camp until dark. . .
Cipson's spies reported all the situation, and Cipson frowned, thinking to himself, these local soldiers are all rotten roots of his grandmother, and tens of thousands of people are all acting for me, right?
Then don't blame me for being ruthless!Go and get those fire control mages who have been bought.
The next day, the army of the Giant Elephant Kingdom was still holding swords and guns, and then turned on the troll mode, frantically outputting words of greeting to each other's ancestors with their mouths.
Suddenly, several firebombs were fired from the Giant Elephant Nation troops, piercing the chests of several Black Diamond Kingdom soldiers.
"Who! Who attacked each other without permission? Stop, stop, stop! No one can strike without an order! Oops! Who slashed me with a knife?"
"I'll you! I gave you a look to tell you that it was a group performance, why are you still beating me?
As more and more soldiers lost control, the two armies finally fought together, and the knives and guns finally became the main output weapons.
The two forces are stronger in terms of strength, the army of the Giant Elephant Kingdom was defeated, only 6,000 people fled, and the rest were all killed, although the army of the Black Diamond Kingdom won, it also killed 20,000 people.
When the food was delivered to Septsen, the eldest prince smiled, and the quartermaster understood it, gave the eldest prince a noble salute, and then turned and left.
Five days later, Sang Kun sent another 50,000 troops to take the initiative to provoke the troops of the Black Group Kingdom, while Sipson continued to send the remaining 30,000 troops to meet the battle.
This time, everyone was not in the mood to act, so everyone rushed up and went straight to work!
Sang Kun's army this time had a part of the elite soldiers, and after the two sides fought until night, the remaining 1,500 troops of the Black Diamond Kingdom fled, and the army of the Giant Elephant Kingdom killed 40,000 people, and 10,000 returned victoriously.
When the defeated troops of the Black Diamond Kingdom retreated to the camp, Sipson had already lined up in formation, and one of the lieutenants shouted loudly: "You and others have all violated military law, and you should be beheaded for escaping from the battle!"
Rows of crossbow arrows flew out, crucifying them to the ground.
The quartermaster handed the eldest prince a booklet, which was full of lists of 50,000 elite supplies.
Sipson smiled and said, "Quartermaster, I heard that the minor nobles here are reluctant to provide supplies to the army?"
The quartermaster hurriedly replied: "Yes, Your Highness, the petty nobles here are very rude, and I think it is necessary to send a large army to tie them up from house to house and teach them lessons." β
Sipson said: "It's too troublesome to go to class, let's all be recruited, those who don't want are traitors!"
The quartermaster shuddered and said, "Yes, Your Highness, you can't be polite to these traitors, I'll arrange it right away, and none of them can escape!"
It hasn't snowed in the south for many years, and only in the central or northern part of the Kingdom of Black Diamond does it snow.
But this year, it snowed unexpectedly in the south, and the snowflakes fell into the streams of blood, blending with the blood into pools of blood.
More and more people learned about the collaboration of the southern nobles from different channels, and everyone talked about it...
Soon after, the king issued a proclamation to the nation:
The war is imminent, and the nobles in the south collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, and the crime cannot be punished.
The eldest prince Simpson found out in time and exterminated the traitor with thunderous means, which is a great achievement.
It is hoped that the rest of the nobles in various places must distinguish their positions in the event of a great war between the two countries, and severely punish those who defect to the enemy if they are found again.
Sang Kun also got a notice from the Black Diamond Kingdom, after seeing the notice, he thought about it, it seems that he is not the best at playing, sure enough, it is the back waves of the Yangtze River that push the front waves!
