Chapter 1302: Cruelty

From Yuliko's standpoint, he didn't want to fight with the Orientals. Since His Majesty started the battle in the Istrian Heights, the entire Saxon Kingdom has been like a chariot with full horsepower, and most of the young and strong have gone out to help His Majesty Lothair, and most of the people who remain in Imsburg are some old, weak, sick and disabled, and food has become a big problem. Earlier, Jurico had opposed Lothair's decision, after the great plague, the empire was very weak, and the kingdom of Saxony also had a lot of troubles, first of all, food was a big problem, and to start a war, it was bound to mobilize all the resources of the principality. Although His Majesty felt that the highland war could be quickly resolved, Jurico was cautious by nature and always prepared for the worst, for fear that the imperial soldiers would fall into the quagmire of the highlands and not be able to escape. As a result, the Orientals did not know what method they used to drag countless imperial soldiers to death, but the empire had a steady stream of resources sent to the Istrian highlands, and now it is the middle of winter, once the food is cut off, the consequences are unimaginable, do you let the people run to the corner of the wall to dig up rats in the dirt to eat?

Tens of thousands of troops, the army is at its peak, Zhao Yougong is not polite, although he did not order the siege of the city, but let tens of thousands of soldiers and horses scatter, and besieged the city of Yumsburg, let alone a person, even a vicious dog don't want to break out of the siege. A whole day passed, and Yurico looked at the army outside the city, his face sad, and he longed to grow wings and fly away. Now, Yuliko has lost that bit of luck, and it is impossible to say that the Orientals will not fight Yumsburg. Since the Easterners have called, there is no reason to retreat, and after Eumsburg is the Elbe, and once they reach the Elbe, the castle of Suplin will tremble. Faced with the current situation, Yurico was worried, and even Turick next to him couldn't lift his spirits, "Lord Duke, how is this good?" What kind of medicine are the Orientals selling in this gourd, surrounding Yumsburg but not attacking, do they want to consume us alive and force us to take the initiative to open the city and surrender? ”

As if he was inadvertently complaining and asking, Yurico frowned, is Turick asking like this, is he tempting? Sure enough, Jurico saw a trace of solemnity flash between Turick's eyebrows, and this solemnity was aimed at him, Yulik. Teach these people, it's really pervasive, and they want to plug in everything. Yurico was slightly angry in his heart, but when he thought of the thousands of remnants under Turik's command, he had to deal with it carefully. Although the Yuliko family has 5,000 soldiers, they are also half a catty to eight taels with Turick's church soldiers, and if they really want to fight, I am afraid they will not get much benefit. The reason why Turik was tempted was probably because he was afraid that the Yurico family would surrender in the city, after all, Turrick was a hardcore church member, and he would not turn his back on the pope even if he died. Jurico thought for a moment, made a very helpless expression, and said with a wry smile, "It doesn't have to trap us, the target of the Easterners is the Elbe River, which is the core of the principality, Supulin Castle, only by taking Supulin Castle can they deter the imperial nobles, how can they spend too long in Yumsburg?" ”

"Then what is the reason for the Orientals to do this?" Turrick's forehead is noisy, and his beard, which has not been trimmed for a long time, looks dirty, but at this time, no one cares about Rick's image. Yurico thought for a moment and shook his head gently, "Who can explain this?" Only the Orientals themselves know why, but they can guess some. After a crushing defeat at the top of the Nushui Mountains, the Orientals reached Yumsburg, and beyond that was the Elbe. I'm afraid that the Easterners want to see how many troops the imperial nobles can come up with, and the imperial nobles will definitely make the last resistance, and the Kingdom of Saxony is the territory of the empire after all. ”

Yurico's guess, although not all right, is not far off. Zhao Yougong did have the intention of this aspect, and when evening came, the cold wind was blowing outside Yumsburg, and there was a whirring sound outside the tent. Zhao Yougong was also uncomfortable, but he still ordered to postpone the siege and wait for two days. Sanniang, Dongfang Jin and Shi Wengong stayed in Festaq City, and only Xiao Zhiyun was left by her side. Xiao Zhiyun was obviously a little unaccustomed to the Latin American winter, and contracted the wind cold, but fortunately it was not too serious, lying in the crook of the man's arm, the red face was very clear, and the wrinkled and sour nose was wrinkled, she asked softly, "What do you think, the Elbe River is ahead, and it should be a quick decision at this time, why did you stop at Yumsburg, this is not your style, are you worried that Yumsburg will not be able to attack for a long time, if this is the case, it is really unnecessary." ”

"You, you're still a little anxious, can this king attack Festaq City without hesitation, will he stop at Yumsburg? In fact, the postponement of the attack is also a temporary intention" Zhao Yougong pampered you with Xiao Zhiyun in his arms, and the brazier next to him was burning, driving away the coolness on his body, "The battle on the top of the Nushui Mountain has reminded this king, since the church can send an army of more than 20,000 people, even if it is other Germanic nobles?" Although a large number of Germanic soldiers were still in the Istrian heights, the Danube nobility and the eastern nobility were still strong, and it would not be a good thing for them to send a large army to ambush near the Elbe. It is better to postpone the siege of the city, so as to allow time to find out the situation on the Elbe, if these Germanic nobles want to be strong for the Saxons, we can take the opportunity to destroy these blind ones first, and then turn back to Yumsburg. For us, Yumsburg is only a matter of time, and those Germanic nobles are the real trouble. ”

For Yumsburg, Zhao Yougong is not worried, with the strong strength of the Dingguo army, if he attacks with all his strength, I am afraid that he will be able to defeat it in one day. The key is whether or not the Elbe can be successfully captured, and those people in Dolle are also notoriously ruthless characters, and if they are not strictly guarded against, it is not impossible for the boat to capsize in the gutter. In fact, when you arrive in Yumsburg, you are already very close to the Elbe River, and even if you don't attack Yumsburg, you can stimulate the sensitive hearts of the Germanic nobles. Zhao Yougong is a person who pays attention to practical interests, and since he wants to eat, he must eat enough benefits. Xiao Zhiyun smiled and patted Zhao Yougong, feeling that this guy was too cunning, and he always kept coming up with some calculating thoughts, I hope that the Germans had better not move their minds, otherwise they will not be able to eat and leave again this time.

Whether Zhao Yougong is cunning or smart, his calculations are always on point. The siege of Yumsburg by the Eastern armies was no secret, and now the Germanic nobles were all watching the situation in Latin America, especially the likes of Dolle and Schwein. Dolle was so depressed that things had come to such an extent that he knew that the envoy sent to the Caucasus had been tricked. Wofrey was a reckless man, he didn't have so many twists and turns, and he could play the messengers around, and eighty percent of them were instructed by the Orientals. As soon as the Orientals attacked Festak, Dolle summoned the messenger back with interest. At this time, it was almost evening, a military newspaper was placed in front of him, Dolle opened it and looked at it, and his brows furrowed tightly, the pace of the Oriental people is really fast enough. Dolle did not want Saxony to fall into the hands of the Orientals, the vast land of the Kingdom of Saxony, rich resources, who did not want a piece of the pie, especially the Elbe River Valley, Dolle dreamed of sharing some interests. The Orientals advanced to the vicinity of Yumsburg with an army of 60,000, and such a force still had a chance to take advantage of it. After thinking about it, Dolle sent people to Schwein, and because the situation in Saxony was uncertain and the church sent a large army to it, Schwein also withdrew to Hohenzollern. Soon, Schwein, who was talking to Gregory, came to the private domain of Dolle. The Frederick family has survived for hundreds of years, and the heritage is naturally not comparable to a rookie family like Schwein. Dolle gave Schwein a lot of face, and personally stood at the door to greet him, and the two exchanged pleasantries and walked into the castle side by side. Mo looked at it as a smile, but it meant that the great nobles of the east, led by the Frederick family, had finally recognized the status of the Danube nobility.

The two sides took their seats, and Dolle did not ramble and explained the situation in Yumsburg in detail. Schwein was extremely smart, and when he heard something in Dorle's words, he lowered his head slightly, and smiled a little uncertainly, "Lord Dolle, do you want to make a final effort?" If you want to do it, the Elbe is the last chance, after the Elbe, only Suplin Castle can be defended, but in that way, we will not be able to get out, and we will inevitably fight the Orientals. ”

"Yes, I want to make a final attempt near the Elbe, is Lord Schwein willing to see the interests of Saxony fall into the hands of the Orientals? Although you and I don't look down on Lothair, but the Elbe valley can feed millions of people, how can we give up easily? Dolle pointed to the map on the table and pointed to a certain place, "The misty forest in the east of the Elbe River must not be forgotten by Lord Schwein, this jungle is vast, and there is often dense fog in winter, if we use it well, we can use a small number of troops to drag down the army of the Easterners, but I don't know how many people Lord Schwein can send." ”

Dolle obviously didn't want to give Schwein a chance to refuse, Schwein smiled faintly, and did not have the slightest anger, but asked with the corners of his mouth curled, "It's not impossible to block the Orientals in the Misty Forest, but, for the interests of the Elbe, we want half." ”

After listening to Schwein's unceremonious words, Dolle frowned a little unhappily, half of the benefits of the Elbe River are equivalent to pulling teeth from the tiger's mouth. Once the Danube nobles take half of the benefits, it is equivalent to occupying an important piece of land in the north of the eastern aristocratic principality, which is not a matter of land, the eastern nobility will face a flanking attack, and the Danube nobles can also jump directly from the south to the north, and even extend their tentacles to the Hohenzollern area. Schwein was really ambitious, and Dorle thought about it for a long time, but decided to agree, no matter how difficult the Danube nobles were, they could not compare to the Orientals. Dolle is known as the century-old hero of the Frederick family, and naturally he is not in vain, he can afford to put it down, at least on the surface, there is no dissatisfaction, which even Schwein deeply admires. Stretching out his right hand, Dolle smiled, "Okay, everything is according to what Lord Schwein said, but in this battle of the Misty Forest, the Danube nobles will have to take out at least 10,000 soldiers and horses." ”

"Very good, Lord Dolle is quick to talk, and the deal is done" Schwein slapped his hands with Dolle very happily, which can be regarded as a verbal agreement. Schwein's arrogance is for a reason, he actually doesn't want to watch the interests of the Elbe River surrendered to the Orientals, he has already prepared soldiers and horses, otherwise he would not have negotiated with Pope Gregor. It's a pity that Gregory couldn't spare enough people to rush to the aid of the Elbe, but he didn't expect that the east was not bright and the west was bright, and Gregory couldn't help, but the Frederick family took the initiative to send it to the door. Schwein was so cheerful that it made Dolle feel a little empty, and he didn't know whether today's decision was good or bad.

The territory of the Kingdom of Saxony seems to be calm, but underneath the calm there is an undercurrent. Yumsburg was still silent, but the city of Kyiv, hundreds of miles away, was already full of swords and guns, and after a long struggle, Lothair finally ordered the occupation of the sacred place and began to approach the Suzdal River. No matter how reluctant Lothair was, approaching the Suzdal River and attacking Vladimir was already the last hope of the Germanic warriors. Whether the city of Vladimir will be able to be taken is still unknown, but the Suzdal River has to be hit. Nearly 70,000 Germanic troops left the city of Kiev and launched a full-scale attack on the defense line of the Suzdal River, and the garrison stationed along the river immediately felt a huge pressure. In order to deal with the threat of the Germanic army and the Danes, Hai Dongzhu also came to Vladimir City, since the Battle of the Suzdal River began, the military reports of all parties were sent to the city like snowflakes, this is the first time that Hai Dongzhu commanded such a huge battle, and it is inevitable that he is a little nervous, "How is the western defense line?" If there is a problem, immediately send Gu Suha's soldiers and horses to the top. ”

"The sea nobles rest assured, the western defense line is as stable as Mount Tai, but the Germanic attack is very fierce, these Germans are very fierce, and they dare to swim from the river on such a cold day" Saito said this, unable to hide the fear on his face. Hai Dongzhu is also worried, I am afraid that the Germans are also aware of their situation, so the battle of the Suzdal River is extremely desperate, anyway, their own troops on the front line of the Suzdal River are far inferior to the Germans, if they blindly fight hard, it may not be a good thing, "Is there any movement in the Rogda hills?" Ordered Cao Yuan's subordinates, no matter how the war develops in Vladimir, his soldiers and horses must be nailed to the Rogda hills, and if he dares to take a step back, I will cut off his head. In addition, the Turov garrison is all going south, and it is necessary to reach Vladimir in three days' time, and I will see if the Germans have any three-headed and six-armed forces who can swallow Vladimir from us. ”

Although Hai Dongzhu is a woman, the momentum between her words is very fierce, and before the Suzdal River is over, she has already decided to fight the Germans in Vladimir City. Saito sighed a little embarrassed, although this sea nobleman is a little inexperienced, but this courage is really not inferior to a man. The battle on the Suzdal River was very tragic, and neither Bysr nor Sugus spared at this time, and tried their best to repeatedly attack the Suzdal River defense line. Because the boats were taken away by the Dingguo army in advance, the Germans could only swim through the river, and in the winter, the river was wide, and many Germanic soldiers became numb in their hands and feet halfway through the swim and drowned directly in the river. In the face of the roaring rain of arrows, the road forward was full of blood, the Germans paid a heavy price, and still failed to hit the other side, Baisel's heart was dripping with blood, and he walked around in a hurry, "Suggs, you can't fight like this, if you keep fighting like this, even if you take the Suzdal River, how many people will be left in the end?" Don't forget, there's another city of Vladimir behind the Suzdal River, damn it, the Orientals are made of iron, and they don't take a step back until now. ”

In such a white-hot battle, the Germans suffered heavy losses, and the Dingguo army guarding the river bank was not much better, and the Germanic soldiers rushed up without their lives, especially the soldiers and horses guarding the bridgehead, who had lost more than 2,000 soldiers and horses in the face of the repeated attacks of the Germans. Corpses lay across the stone bridge, the cold wind swept by, leaving stiff blood clots, war is always cruel, and the merciful will only fall sooner. Sugus also saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, "Stone Bridge, yes, it is Stone Bridge, as long as we can take Stone Bridge, our soldiers and horses will continue to arrive at the other side." I don't believe how much oil is still in the army, all of which is thrown into the stone bridge, and people are holding the oil canisters and rushing over, and these Orientals don't know how to be afraid. ”

Sugers is a complete lunatic, he is a fan of violence, and his solutions are more direct. But at the moment, there is no good way for Bysil, so I can only try it first, a total of five hundred Germanic death squads have been gathered, these people are holding a can of fire oil, looking at these young faces, Suggs is a little unbearable, and I don't know how many of these people can survive, "Warriors, the Easterners are desperately trying to stop us, which shows the importance of Vladimir, as long as we take Vladimir City, we can overlook the interests of the entire Kipros, and then the Orientals will inevitably be in chaos, The crisis in Saxony can also be solved. It's this stone bridge, we must take it, rush, for the sake of the Holy Empire, for our lives, take the stone bridge, attack Vladimir, the glory of God is with us, we will be invincible, kill! ”

Sugus drew his broadsword, and the faint sunlight gave off a chill, and hundreds of Germanic soldiers were infected, and they all screamed. It was still this stone bridge, and the Germans organized men to rush over again, but this time, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army guarding the bridge obviously felt a little different, these people were all holding jars, like a group of mad dogs that did not want to die. Dutong Yao Tanye's heart sank, and he woke up suddenly, "It's a fire oil can, quickly, everyone retreats, the longbowmen cover the attack, don't let this group of mad dogs rush over." ”

What the Germanic people have in mind, Yao Tanye can guess some, these people are going to die together, and burn a way with fire oil. No one would have thought that the Germans would be crazy to such an extent, and all of them would quickly evacuate, but it was a pity that the longbowmen's bows had already been used, and they could not form a dense rain of arrows, and hundreds of Germanic soldiers rushed over after paying the price of hundreds of people. There was a clatter, a crisp sound, the crockpot broke, and the fire oil splattered on many people, followed by rockets. The fire began to spread at the bridgehead, and many soldiers became fire balls, desperately jumping into the icy water. Smoke billowed and screamed again and again, and soon after, the smell of barbecue was permeated, and it was true that the Dingguo army was brave and good at fighting, but when did it encounter such a terrifying attack, it couldn't help but be suppressed. A large number of Germanic soldiers began to rush over from the bridge, and Yao Tanye shouted unwillingly, "Retreat, quickly retreat to the rear border line, don't be surrounded by Germans." ”

By this time, Yao Tanye knew very well that the stone bridge could not be defended, and the Germans relied on an astonishing suicide attack to break through, and they would definitely not be able to prevent it. Yao Tanye's remnants began to retreat to the rear, and even the defensive line behind them was affected, who would have thought that the first hole to appear was the well-armed Shiqiao defensive line. Sugus led the men along the stone bridge line, and the entire Suzdal River defense line began to become porous. The commander made Wang Benlie be caught off guard, and when he saw Yao Tanye, he kicked him directly, "What the hell did you do, three thousand soldiers and horses galloped to help the Shiqiao defense line, you can still hold it, the sea nobles are watching from behind, where do you let Lao Tzu's face go?" ”

Yao Tanye looked humiliated when he was scolded, gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Commander Wang, you give the last general another 3,000 people, and the last general will take people to drive these Germanic mad dogs down." Yao Tanye did not defend himself, and the loss of the defense area should not be justified even if there are thousands of reasons. Wang Benlie shook his head directly, he didn't want Yao Tanye to die at the hands of the Germans. Suggs's soldiers and horses soon fought, and the two sides launched a new round of confrontation in the town of Monsfino, ten miles away from Shiqiao, where the heavy garrison, coupled with Wang Benlie's personal sitting, finally blocked Suggs's army near Monsfino. The stone bridge defense line fell, and the news was quickly sent to Hai Dongzhu, and finally Hai Dongzhu decided to withdraw from the Suzdal River defense line and the main force entered the vicinity of Vladimir City for defense. The stone bridge defense line fell, and the entire Suzdal River defense line revealed a huge gap, once it fell into a bitter battle, I don't know how many soldiers and horses would be lost, and it was also helpless to retreat and rely on Vladimir City to resist.

After nightfall, Lothair finally arrived at the Stone Bridge Line, and Sugus returned, but he was wounded by a thick bandage on his shoulder. Lothair nodded with some relief, the next is Vladimir City, thinking that the Orientals were overwhelmed by Vladimir, and the Germanic warriors will inevitably have a lot of difficulties if they want to take this kind of city. The next day, the Germanic army arrived on the outskirts of Vladimir City, and the Second Battle of Vladimir City also began. Vladimir is known as the first fortified city in the Istrian Heights, which has stood the test of time, not to mention the fact that the city walls were reinforced by the Dingguo army during this time. The Germans learned the methods of the previous Dingguo army to attack Vladimir City, and piled up earth mountains outside the city, which really gave Haidongzhu a headache.

Time passed, two days passed quickly, and the situation in Vladimir City became extremely delicate, although the Germans had not yet made any breakthroughs, but under the constant onslaught, the city began to shake. The mound was piled up, and the Germanic arrows began to fall on the city. Under such a situation, many people began to worry, as the real principal, Hai Dongzhu could not really be indifferent, but she had to be calm enough. Now one can only hope that the Turov garrison will arrive on time, and at this time, the Turov army will become a decisive force in changing the situation on the battlefield.

In the northeast of Vladimir, a large army of tens of thousands of people, including 5,000 cavalry, slowly entered the Gorod Heights, and they were the main army from the Turov garrison. This army was led by Elena herself, and they were originally going for the Danes, wanting to enter the Rogda Hills and help deal with the Danes. But no one expected that the battle on the Suzdal River would be so tragic, and an order was issued to rush to the aid of Vladimir. Yelena has an excellent relationship with Hae Dong-joo, and of course she doesn't want to see this sister buried in Vladimir City. The spies had already been sent out, but none of the good news came back. After entering the castle of Gorod, Elena hastily ate something, lay down on the bed and rested, and with a loud bang, the door was pushed open, "Vladimir is in an emergency, the Germans are besieging the city on all sides, and the situation is critical." ”

"The Germans are fast enough" Yelena sat up abruptly and gently stroked her aching forehead, "Tomorrow, Yan Pengke's cavalry will immediately rush to Vladimir's aid and beat the garrisons on the outskirts of the Germans first. ”

I was still thinking about taking a break, but the situation is stronger than people. Early the next morning, the cavalry left Gorod under the leadership of Yan Pengke and others, and the offensive and defensive battle of Vladimir City at this time could not be described as tragic. In order to capture the city, the Germanic longbowmen did not stop at all, and the rain of arrows did not distinguish between the enemy and us, and many Germans died in their own hands, but the crazy Germans seemed to have lost consciousness and screamed and pounced up. Hai Dongzhu felt a headache, facing a group of enemies who didn't know what to do, there was really nothing to do, and there was nothing to do at this time, so I could only see who could hold on. The walls of Vladimir are crumbling and seem to be falling at any moment. The reason why the Germans are so crazy is because they are in a desperate situation, especially those soldiers from the Kingdom of Saxony, and there is no way back, except to take the city of Vladimir, they cannot find a better way to save the Kingdom of Saxony. Wei Wei rescued Zhao, whether he could save Zhao or not, he had to beat Wei first.

Lothair's expression was solemn, as long as Vladimir City was not defeated, he would not dare to relax for a moment, Vladimir City was the only bargaining chip, and only by getting Vladimir would he have the capital to bargain with the Orientals. staring closely, he didn't notice a Germanic cavalry rushing towards him, "Report.... Your Majesty Lothair, a large number of Eastern cavalry have appeared in the northeast, and they are heading towards the city of Vladimir, which is expected to arrive in an hour. ”

"Whew" All the Germanic nobles, including Lothair, were shocked, and the large number of eastern cavalry was not necessarily terrifying, but what they were really worried about was something else. Now that these cavalry have arrived, there will definitely be other reinforcements, whether it is the Turov garrison or the Yanmar garrison, which will deal a fatal blow to the Germanic warriors. Now that the two sides are at loggerheads, any reinforcements will break this wonderful balance, no, the Orientals must not be allowed to kill, once the balance is broken, the little hope that supports the Germanic warriors will also collapse in an instant. One can imagine what the Germanic warriors who fell into despair would be like, "Your Excellency Suggs, excuse me, no matter what, please delay for two days, and in two more days, we will definitely be able to take Vladimir." ”

Suggs did not refuse, although he had already retreated, and did not even think that he could resist two days. However, as a Germanic nobleman, even if there is a little hope, he has to fight for it, nodding heavily, Suggs turned on his horse without saying anything. The departure of the Germanic cavalry also left a shadow on the besiegers, and many Germanic soldiers wondered what these cavalry had done.

To the northeast of Vladimir, two cavalry teams have collided together, and both sides don't need much language. Yan Pengke was strictly ordered to rush to the aid of Vladimir City, and Suggs naturally did not want reinforcements to arrive. One side is eager to rescue, the other side is sworn to the death, in this land, the two cavalry are inseparable, the Germans occupy the advantage of troops, but if you swallow the cavalry army of more than 5,000 people, it is not so easy. The battle lasted for an hour, and Yan Pengke's troops finally retreated. A long-distance attack, and the Germans waited for work, and if they fought for a long time, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out. The Germans stopped in front, and Yan Pengke could only wait patiently, until noon the next day, Yelena's reinforcements were late. It's better to be late than never, and with the help of a large number of infantry, Yelena ordered Yan Pengke and An Tong to launch a new round of attacks. This time Suggs didn't have such good luck, the infantry formation with a chain of horses, coupled with the rain of arrows, in the face of this familiar way of attack, Suggs finally couldn't resist, and the cavalry formation was scattered. Watching the Germanic cavalry slowly cut apart, Sugus finally revealed two lines of cloudy tears, blood covering his cheeks, and his beard withered, like a wild man wrapped in animal skins. It's over, it's really over this time, and Lothair's last hope is about to be dashed.

Suggs's army collapsed, and Elena's army drove in, but no more decent resistance was encountered, and in the evening, they finally arrived in Vladimir, and the little hope that had sustained the Germans in fighting Vladimir to the death became ethereal. There was no need for orders at all, and the desperate Germanic soldiers retreated like a tidal wave, and since then they have been in a state of collapse. If the Germans were really determined to fight to the death with Yelena's troops at this time, it would not be hopeless at all, but the problem was that after a long and tense battle, they were greeted with enemy reinforcements, which was psychologically unacceptable. The collapse of the psychological defense line is truly fatal.

A crescent moon hung high in the sky, lonely and cold, and Lothair was like an old monk who had settled down, let the cold wind carry him. Despair, deep despair, Turov's army is like the last straw that crushes the camel's back, how can it be supported at this time? Lothair could feel that with the arrival of Turov's army, the attitudes of Suggs, Bysel, and Jorkoren had also changed.

The Germanic army is intricately intertwined, and there are not too many diehards who really belong to Lothair, even those children of the Saxon Kingdom are not necessarily Lothair's dead soldiers. In the hopelessness of hope, how many people are willing to bury their bones for Lothair's dream? Suggs was injured, and Bysel was no better, and the two old rivals sat down next to each other again, "Sugus, it's time for us to withdraw, Lothair is finished." ”

"Withdraw, withdraw to the city of Kyiv at this time, we still have hope of survival, and then we will see how the Orientals make a move, I really didn't expect that our lives would fall into the control of the Orientals, is this an irony?" Suggs grinned, the wound on his face looked a little hideous, and when he thought of the Germanic warriors who died in front of him, some desolation spread in his heart, like a cold moon in winter, so cold that people could not see the future.

In Vladimir City, Hai Dongzhu hugged Yelena tightly, at this moment, she looked at Yelena very pleasing to the eye, "Yelena, you came in time, if you come one day later, I'm afraid you will have to collect the body for me." If the city of Vladimir falls into the hands of the Germans, I will die, and I am sorry for the trust of the officials." Yelena gently patted Hai Dongzhu's pink back, the heavy responsibility of Vladimir City may be really too heavy for Hai Dongzhu, but fortunately, she kept it in the end.

The battle of Vladimir ended, but the battle of Yumsburg took a new turn, and two days later, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army around Yumsburg suddenly gathered half of their troops and marched in the direction of the Elbe, with a staggering speed. Zhao Yougong did not go to the Elbe River, but asked Gao Zhong to lead the troops, these Germanic nobles still couldn't hold back after all, Xiao Zhiyun looked at the map in front of him with full attention, and asked worriedly, "Is the news given by Royce reliable?" ”

"Whether it's reliable or not, you don't know until you try it. Her Royal Highness the Princess, in fact, there is no need to worry so much, I think Royce will not lie to us, even if we do, as long as we feign to attack Suplin Castle and cross the Elbe River, the Germanic ambush will definitely show flaws" Dongfang Jin is much more free and easy, he has always been this kind of dismissive temperament, Zhao Yougong nodded Xiao Zhiyun's shoulder, and said with a smile, "What the big official said is true, Royce deceived us without any benefit, the Wei Ting family led by Holnan in the south originally had a contradiction with the white grape nobles in the north, Unless Royce gets water in his head, he will provoke us again. What's more, our scouts are not for nothing, every move of the Germans is under our control, and if these people want to prevent us from entering the Elbe River Valley, the only thing they can use is the Misty Forest, and in the Elbe River area, only this jungle is suitable for ambushes. ”

Zhao Yougong's self-confidence is not blind, every step has been fully prepared, the misty jungle area is very large, although I don't know what the specific situation is in the forest, but such a jungle is used for ambushes, it couldn't be better. Zhao Yougong didn't expect to be able to achieve many battle results, as long as he hurt these noble coalition forces, it was enough. In the misty jungle, the eastern nobles and the Danube nobles gathered large and small noble forces, gathering an army of more than 30,000 people, and they were arranged in the forest for the purpose of making a final resistance. The Misty Forest, as the name suggests, is foggy, especially in the winter, when the fog is thick and persistent. Gao Pet and Yang Zaixing's troops arrived at the periphery of the Misty Forest, and they chose to rest in place, although Gao Pet was reckless, but so many years of leading the army told him a profound truth, that is, every forest is not entered, let alone a strange jungle. Yang Zaixing held a clairvoyant mirror and kept observing the periphery of the forest, covered with winter snow, the aspen had long withered, but a large number of coniferous pines lined up, maintaining a green patch in the forest, and the Elbe River crossing the forest, looking so small. Gao Pet touched his chin, and from time to time picked the thick hat on his head, since he entered the territory of Latin America, Gao Pet also learned to be obedient, took off his helmet, and began to wear a thick animal skin hat, a suit of armor, and a beast skin hat, no matter how you look at it, it is a little nondescript, but in order to maintain the temperature, I can't care about that demeanor.

"Shao Lie, don't you see anything, are these Germanic people really ambushed in this jungle?" Gao Chong is very lazy, as long as Yang Zaixing is there, he is not willing to bother.

Puyol crouched under the tree and waited, he was now waiting for the Orientals to enter the woods and give them a head-on blow, these arrogant Orientals should have been taught a lesson a long time ago. Sneering, several Germanic soldiers ran over in disgrace, all of them were black and gray, some of them even burned some of their clothes, Puyol stood up and said angrily, "What the hell, what are you running?" ”
