Harold. Godwin's reinforcements of more than 8,000 sailed from the port of Somerset, and instead of heading to the Norman-controlled kingdom of Dehebarth, they bypassed Deved and headed north to Gwyneth, where it was clear that Harold wanted to give Grufitz. King Seyuli a backstab.

William believed that every character has his restrained people and his natural enemies, just like Harold. Godwin's man, he's Grufitz. Sewli and Harald's nemesis, while William he was Harold. Godwin's natural enemies.

With Harold. With Godwin's addition, the Normans could not worry about any changes on the battlefield in Wales, and Count Rodrigo, who had his hands free, began to send soldiers to support the Earl of Mephistopheles and others in Dublin.

The reinforcements to the island of Ireland totaled more than 10,000 people, all of whom were the elite of the Welsh Expeditionary Corps, while the remaining 6,000 Welsh Expeditionary Force and 3,000 militia troops of the Duchy of Brittany were stationed in the Kingdom of Degebath to defend against the attack of King Grufiz on the Kingdom of Degebas.

The Earl of Mephistopheles' 16,000 Irish expeditionary force was surrounded by the allied forces of the Irish princes and the Norse-Gaelic people, who in turn attracted the main force of the Irish princes and the Norse-Gaelic people.

There is no doubt that the empty Irish princes' territories are the best targets for Count Rodrigo, and he can completely sweep the Irish princes' territories from south to north, completely destroying the enemy's war potential, and achieving the purpose of attracting the enemy's troops to come back.

At that time, Count Rodrigo, who was waiting for his work, could completely break through the armies of the princes who had returned to the territory one by one, and the siege of Dublin would naturally be lifted.

The plan went so smoothly that Rodrigober's fleet landed in the southernmost county of Desmond in Ireland and then marched south and north to invade the Duchy of Munster.

War was not a dinner party, and the Normans completely abandoned the warm and affectionate mask they had in France, exposing their original violent nature.

They burned along the way, destroying a few towns and villages, from Desmond to the Earls of Tadhuhan and Umhuhan in the Kingdom of Twim, large swathes of southern Ireland were burned to the ground, and countless Irish people were homeless and displaced.

The Normans had no scruples, because William had given them permission to do so, and in the eyes of the Normans, Ireland was a poor country that was only suitable for being regarded as a colony, and not as a native land, unlike the lands of the Kingdom of France, which were cherished by the Normans.

They were not at all worried about the destruction and consequences of their raids, it was just a little pain from the conquest, and as long as the Irish submitted, such a thing would not have happened.

In fact, in 1066 and 1068, during the Norman conquest of England, large swathes of southern England were burned to the ground, and to make matters worse, almost all of the northern part of England was burned by the Normans, and no area was spared.

It was also necessary to deter the enemy, and it was inevitable, since the Normans had no choice but to do so when surrounded by hostile Anglo-Saxons.

After sweeping the kingdom of Dum, Count Rodrigo led his army north along the Shanon River, preparing to attack the Kingdom of Connaught.

As long as the Kingdom of Connaught is eliminated, plus the Kingdom of Twim that was swept away before, the two most powerful kingdoms of Ireland will be wiped out, and the combined forces of the Irish princes will be crushed and fall apart.

Enraged by the Irish coalition besieging the Normans in Dublin with the Norse-Gaelic in Dublin, the Count of Rodrigo was enraged by the heinous atrocities committed by the Earl of Rodrigo in the kingdom of Dum, and the princes retreated to their respective territories despite the opposition of the Norse-Gaels and others.

The most anxious of the retreating ranks was King Eddard of Connaught. Tile. The Normans are wreaking havoc in their realm, and every day their hearts are bleeding.

The territory was the foundation of the princes and nobles, and they were concerned about their own territory, urging their respective armies to speed up, and gradually broke away from the ranks of the Irish coalition.

King Connaught and King Twim were not fools, they knew that their strength was not comparable to the elite Normans, and this was well proved in the siege of Dublin before, 15,600 Normans actually repelled the front and rear siege of nearly 30,000 troops on the frontal battlefield, and the Normans' combat effectiveness had to be feared.

King Connaught was the lord of the northern part of Ireland, and he contacted his own Earl Brifins, Earl of Elgara, Earl of Uraed, Tyl Oggen, and Earl of Tilconnay, together with the younger brothers of the King of Twim, the Earl of Desmond, the Earl of Oslezi, the Earl of Leggin, and the Earl of Hildara, a total of more than 13,000 troops, all the way to the banks of the Shanon River, where the Normans were currently staying for repair, according to the information.

How could a mere 13,000 Irish princes' coalition be an opponent of 10,000 elite Normans, not to mention how poor their weapons and equipment were, judging from their command efficiency, this coalition of Irish princes was far inferior to the Norman Expeditionary Corps, which was mostly a standing army.

The Irish, like other medieval armies, still maintained the traditional characteristics of the feudal army, relying on the knights and vassals of the lord.

Usually a knight was able to provide a small army of 12 men, including him and his attendants, usually 2-3 attendants, and the poor one with 1 attendant, who were well equipped and able to play the role of the protagonist of the Middle Ages - heavy cavalry.

The knight's army was the peasants who cultivated the fiefs under his control, and these peasants had to bring their own necessary equipment, usually a spear and a shield, of course, not to the peasant alone, but usually a mixture of warriors from each village for military service, and the villagers paid for their equipment. If the village is wealthy, they may have a set of cotton armor in addition to a spear and shield, and if they are lucky, a simple helmet, and a sharp knife for daily combat.

In addition, your counts and barons will also respond to your call, and their army composition is similar to that of knights, but they are larger nobles, especially earls, so they will definitely be more numerous.

In addition to these mining troops, the citizens of the city, if you have a good enough relationship with them, will also be willing to serve as your soldiers, rather than pay for it. The wealthy burghers were better equipped and able to arm a decent set of armor, and they usually served as crossbowmen, after all, they knew that their lives were worth more and they had the financial means to buy a crossbow and enough crossbows to go to war. If it is a particularly wealthy merchant class, they may be the youngest son of a wealthy merchant dreaming of knighthood, or simply looking for excitement, they can even be armed with the same knights, of course, if you really use them as knights, you are a rookie like them, but as a worthy cavalry is still very valuable.

It is a pity that Ireland, a poor country with only poor knights and squires, an army of ambitious princes, and peasants with dung forks, is such an opponent of the Normans armed to the teeth?
