South-east Yorkshire, north of the Humber River. Sivarg, the former supreme military governor of the West Frisian aristocratic republic, has been here for several months. With the help of the "Robin Hood Thieves" led by Coster and Marić, Sivarg and his cronies succeeded in recruiting 10,000 young men from several counties in central England and began training.

And these 10,000 English recruits were organized into the Fifth Army by Marin......

Marin's legion was 4,000 more than the 6,000 men of the ancient Roman legions, and it was possible to make up eight phalanxes. And because of the lack of muskets and ammunition, and the fact that there are more good archers in the English. As such, this legion was similar to Saqqara's Fourth Legion, which was also dominated by England, and both used bows and arrows as ranged weapons.

Despite several months of training in south-eastern Yorkshire, north of the Humber River, Sivag had little faith in the new Fifth Army. After all, don't look at the dog-like people of these recruits during training, they are pleasing to the eye, but they are really on the battlefield, everyone is a chick, and something big may happen......

Faced with a sophisticated British army of 20,000, Sivag did not think that the 10,000 English recruits of the Fifth Army had any combat effectiveness. After being hit by a few rounds of arrows from the English longbowmen, you may cry and call for your mother......

In fact, it wasn't just Sivarg who didn't have faith in the Fifth Army, but Marin also didn't have faith in the Fifth Army. The fighting will of the English soldiers was not as strong as that of the Germans, and although they had Saqara's "Food Temptation Training Method" to help them train, it was completely unknown how much combat strength they had......

Therefore, after some consideration, Marin decided to let the 10,000-strong army go to York City to assist Edward's original 10,000-strong army in defending the city......

Marin was already uneasy about those French soldiers, afraid that they would resent Edward, and that they would surrender to the British army. Therefore, sending another 10,000 people over will give them a boost of faith.

Plus, there's no better way for recruits to train than in fortified battles. On a frontal battlefield, recruits can crumble due to the onslaught of the enemy. But in the battle to defend the city, because of the huge advantage of occupying the tall and strong city walls, the recruits have a lot of reliance in their hearts, and it is naturally not easy to collapse.

You must know that in the defense of the city, not to mention the trained recruits, even if they have no military skills, they can put their weapons on the city wall to participate in the defense of the city. Moreover, it is more effective. After all, the fortification of the walls gave a great sense of security to the warriors who were not veterans......

Therefore, Marin plans to use this siege of York City to train the recruits, let them see blood, and exercise their courage and guts......

Soldiers who have seen blood are very different from soldiers who have not seen blood, soldiers in peacetime look chic at military parades, but when they really go to the battlefield, it may not work. Because, when parading and fighting, it is completely different......

The peaceful soldiers at the parade looked serious, but in fact, their muscles were very tense. Don't look bluffing, in fact, those soldiers may be more nervous than you.

But veterans who have seen blood and people who can crawl out of the pile of dead on the battlefield are either broken down in their hearts, or everything doesn't matter anymore - it doesn't even matter if they die, so their faces are full of indifference and coldness......

Therefore, the eggs of recruits who have never seen blood with the same serious expression are different from veterans of a hundred battles. The seriousness on the face of the peace soldier who had never seen blood was because of nervousness and prudence; And the veterans of a hundred battles who have seen blood are because they don't care about everything anymore and are a little numb to life, so they don't even bother to have an expression on their faces - Lao Tzu is not afraid of death, he is not afraid of living for nothing, afraid of a ball? When they see a stranger, a bloodthirsty veteran may think of you as a human head, and killing you is no different from killing a chicken in their hearts. And they suddenly have a murderous look in their eyes, and sensitive people will take it as murderous...... Because, the bloodthirsty veteran in front of you may indeed be thinking about how to kill you, thinking about where to get rid of you in one fell swoop......

Don't get me wrong, he's not really trying to kill you, he's just used to killing people. The veteran will figure out how to stab you, and the one with the gun will figure out where to hit you the fastest to burp...... This kind of indifference with ill intentions is what people call murderous......

Marin himself is a knight, and has a bit of this veteran habit. For example, when I see other knights, I sometimes think about knocking them off their horses with their rifles, or aiming at someone's neck - thinking about how to carry the opponent's head with a saber when they pass by......

In his previous life, Marin met a veteran who was a sniper, who was silent, but always liked to look at people's eyebrows - paralyzed, he was wondering how to blow your head...... This is purely a professional habit that has been cultivated over a long period of time......

……

Habits are terrible, and when a person gets used to killing, this person is either a perverted wanted criminal or an elite veteran......

Only when you are accustomed to killing and look down on life and death can you grow into a veteran of a hundred battles. Therefore, Marin planned to send the newly formed Fifth Army to York City, and take the initiative to replace the French in charge of the defense of the city, facing the siege of the English army.

Although some people may die, after this battle, most wartime will get used to the brutality of the battlefield. As for those who really can't adapt to it, it can also be seen through the brutal siege of the city. Then, either put to death or kick out the army......

The Fifth Legion was of great use to Marin. After Edward captured London, he could no longer rely on the French to help him defend the city. Otherwise, Edward himself would have been scared. So, Edward needed an army that belonged to the new kingdom of England.

Of course, in the short term, Edward also had difficulty finding a suitable army to protect himself. Therefore, Marin will definitely select one from the Fourth Legion of Saqqara and the Fifth Legion of Sivag to be temporarily ordered to protect Edward and let Edward through the difficult phase. After all, both legions were made up of English, and it was easier for Edward to summon them. As for which one to choose, it depends on Edward's preference.

When Edward gets a foothold, he will definitely form his own descendant army. And then this army will definitely be marginalized. But it doesn't matter, after all, after Edward's success, Marin will also become the new Earl of Northumberland and Lord of the Isle of Wight. Big deal, transfer them to Northumberland and the Isle of Wight.

Marin estimated that Edward's choice of the Fifth Legion would be more likely. After all, the Fifth Legion is a newly formed legion, and its loyalty to Marin, the "old master", is not very high. In this way, Edward was given the opportunity to win over. Therefore, Marin needs to hurry up and make the Fifth Army a combat force.

After all, after the battle, Marin was sure to return to Germany with the main forces. If the Fifth Legion had not seen blood, had been too cowardly, and had been overturned by the remnants of Henry VII, it would have been a shame. If he sent troops to attack England again, he would not be troubled, and if he accidentally let his daughter-in-law, Princess Margaret, be killed by the rebels, then Marlin would have no legal basis to rule England in the future......

Perhaps with hard power, Marin can indeed subdue the English scraps by force. However, future uprisings will definitely be indispensable, and they will have a headache to death. Marin did not dare to guarantee that his descendants would also be proficient in military affairs and subjugate the whole of England...... If you don't make a good fuss, you will be guillotined...... Therefore, it is better to obtain the throne of England through legal principles......

For this reason, Marlin specially revised the battle plan - he planned to leave with 5,000 veterans with the Fifth Army after arriving in Yorktown, and hand over York City to the Fifth Army for defense. Moreover, he would not immediately attack the Great Army of England from behind, but would first let the Fifth Army and the Great Army of England fight for a while. After the recruits of the Fifth Army have fully seen the blood, they will send out the main force and attack from behind to completely solve the ...... of the English army
