Chapter 1344: Dragon Source

In the north of Psk City, a huge cavalry was slowly advancing, Ren Feng was sitting on the horse, his brows were tightly locked, he had been thinking about Xiao Zhiyun's words, what was the princess going to do? Noki Kraft next to him was very calm, he was concentrating on marching, and he didn't think about it so much at all, Ren Phenol leaned closer and said in a low voice, "General Noki Kraft, have you figured it out?" ”

"Sort of, in fact, the princess has already told us the answer, the princess has never thought of defending Psk City, that is to say, Psk City can be abandoned" Look at the dim sky in the distance, the stars are dotted on both sides of the Milky Way, empty and far away, just like Xiao Zhiyun's heart, unfathomable, "At first, I didn't understand something, but after thinking about it carefully, I understood what the princess meant." From the very beginning, the so-called heavy garrison of Psk was a cover, and the Kyiv side had long been prepared to abandon Psk. Has General Ren ever wondered why the Germanic people are obviously inferior to us, why do they dare to brazenly attack the Istrian heights? Because the Istrian Heights are too big, they have a large number of cavalry, advance and retreat freely, fight whenever they want, and leave whenever they want, although we have sufficient troops, but the army restructuring has not yet ended, and it is simply impossible to take care of the entire Istrian Highlands in a short period of time. In that case, we might as well abandon some places, in the north, we should abandon the area around Yelinburg, and in the Istrian heights, we can also abandon the city of Psk. The Germans have no scruples, so they attack everywhere unscrupulously, but once they take Psk City, it is equivalent to carrying a heavy treasure, and the Germans will work hard to protect this treasure. It was only a city to abandon it, but it was able to drag the Germans firmly near Psk, and they could no longer attack with impunity and advance and retreat as before. ”

Speaking of these, Noki Kav is full of admiration for those big people sitting in the city of Kyiv, this kind of strategic deployment, has gone beyond simple military tactics, and must have inhuman foresight, at least he Noki Kav is still too far behind. War is not a gain or loss of a city or a place, and sometimes giving up is also a kind of gain. Flexibility and ease of advance and retreat are the strengths and advantages of the Germanic people, but a Pske city can erase the strengths of the Germanic people. The city of Psk was so important that once it was obtained, the Germans would use it as a bridgehead for an attack on the Istrian heights, and they would inevitably send heavy troops to defend it.

"It seems to make a lot of sense, but after the Germans take the city of Psk, they can directly attack the city of Kyiv to the east, and they can also threaten the city of Vilnius, is this too costly?" Ren Phenol shook his head, his face full of sorrow.

Nokicalf smiled slightly, and said in a flat tone, "On the surface, it seems like this, but everything is mutual, the Germans can use Psk City to threaten Vilnius and Kiev City, and we will also form a clamp on Psk City." The Germans could have attacked the city of Kiev directly, but General Ren forgot a little. If you really want to talk about it, we are the strong side, but we can't use the power in our hands for a short time. However, in the vicinity of Kiev, as long as the Germans dared to go to Kiev to spread wilderness, the 5th and 6th military camps northwest of Vladimir could immediately cross the Suzdal River, and no less than 50,000 troops would be quickly assembled near Kiev. The Germans have three heads and six arms, and they can't beat the heavily guarded city of Kiev, in which we don't need a city wall at all, and the elite army of no less than 50,000 is the strongest city wall. What's more, reality does not allow the Germans to stay in Kiev for a long time, as long as the garrison of Vilnius City and the cavalry of General Yelu are inserted to the south, the Germanic rear route can be cut off at any time. So, the Germans can fight the city of Kyiv, but whether they can fight and whether they can take it down are completely different things. It seems that he can attack Kyiv City at any time, but every time he goes, not only can he not defeat Kyiv City, but he will also lose his troops and face the danger of being cut off from the back road, so what is the meaning of attacking Kyiv City, just to let himself lose his troops and lose his generals? When it comes to strategic deployment, the regent and others are much stronger than us. ”

After a pause, Nokicalf continued, "Psk City is actually a burden that we throw to the Germans, in fact, the Germans can get a Psk City, nothing else can be done, but the Germans have to hold Psk City in order to plot the entire Istrian Highlands. The city of Psk was surrounded by wilderness, more than 300 miles from Saxony, and the weight and movement of troops and horses alone were enough for the Germanic people to have a headache. After two or three months, when we complete the restructuring, we can easily send an army of 100,000, and when the time comes, we will surround the city of Psk, and we will eat as many Germans as there are. Of course, the easy abandonment of Psk City will definitely arouse suspicion, but the Germanic cavalry's sneak attack on the Ryazan River has solved a big problem, and without a bloody battle with the Germans, they can plan and lose Psk City to the Germans without arousing suspicion. If expected, the princess has now led people to withdraw from Psk City. ”

"Hey, such a big deal, only His Highness can think of it, using Psk City as bait, it's really unthinkable to ordinary people" Ren Phenol's words were full of sighs, it sounds like a simple strategy, but it is very complicated to implement. Noki Kraft is not like this, in just a few days, he has realized his own shortcomings, he used to think that the Grand Duke Rurik was a century-old genius, but now it seems that there are really people outside the world. When the war was over, Noki Kraft planned to live in the Great Song Dynasty for a while, and he felt that he still had a lot to learn.

The Ryazan River under the starry night, full of autumn depression and desolation, stop by the river, watch the sparkling, wind blowing on both sides, bursts of cold. All this is no stranger to Yerusha, he is a man who grew up on the grassland, coupled with a long military life, he has long been accustomed to this kind of life with the sky as the land. Overhead, the brilliant Milky Way was like a silver satin, I don't know what's going on, I have an inexplicable sense of irritability in my heart, and I don't feel sleepy.

Ten miles south of the Ryazan River, there was a huge cavalry that was moving slowly, and in order to hide its whereabouts and not to alarm the garrison of the Ryazan, this cavalry all dismounted, and this cavalry was none other than the army of Basil, which had disappeared near the Rye River. At this time, Bysel was wearing a thick animal skin coat, his long hair was dirty, only his eyes were full of light, in order to avoid the search of the Eastern cavalry, he led people to suffer in the red pine forest for two days, but these are worth it, as long as the sneak attack is successful, he will definitely be able to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Psk City, and at that time, it is not easy to get Psk City? At the beginning, Bysel also had a headache for attacking Psk City, according to the news he got before, Pske City was heavily guarded, and under the strong attack, whether he could take Pske City or not, he would definitely lose both. It was also by chance that he was able to come up with the idea of a sneak attack on the Ryazan. While searching the crossing, he met a fat man named Sam, who was a Baltic merchant whose hometown was on Wood Island, and from Sam's mouth, Bysil learned that the red pine forest was passable. There was a path in the red pine forest, which was extremely hard, and it was not a problem for the cavalry to pass through slowly, but this path was covered with thick dead leaves, and ordinary people could not find it at all. Sam's family has been in business for generations, and his ancestors discovered this road fifty years ago, and this red pine forest path has become the treasure of Sam's family's fortune. Sam should also be unlucky, when he went to Constantinople, he was full of money by the local bullies, and finally came back, just thought about the red pine forest and returned to Wood Island, but was caught by Bysel, and in the face of Bysel's threat, Fat Sam could only obediently give the family's secret path for decades to Bysel.

Basil was very careful, and after crossing the red pine forest, he still didn't let Sam go. Sam walked beside Bysel, muttering, "Lord Bysil, the villain has already taken everyone out of the red pine forest, so let the villain go." ”

"Why do you talk so much? Aren't you very familiar with the situation in this area, honestly show the way, and when you take Psk City, there are benefits for you, when you get to Psk City, I will give you a lot of gold coins, enough for you to buy a boat" Bysel stared at each other, listening to Sam's chatter all the way, if it wasn't for Sam's guidance, Sam's mouth would have been blocked a long time ago. Listening to Bysil's promise, Sam pursed his lips secretly, he was not interested in gold coins at all, as for the boat, it was even more ridiculous, there is a ship without a crew, stop at the dock to watch the scenery? In Sam's opinion, gold coins look good, but the actual value is not much, in Wood Island and even in Eastern Rome, it is all barter, many things you can't buy with money, only urgently needed items. This is also the actual situation in the West at this stage, the circulation of money basically only exists among the upper nobles, and the people still barter, so in Sam's view, a bunch of gold coins is not as good as ten carts of wine. But he didn't dare to say these words, and if Bysel was angry and wanted to kill someone, who would he go to? Sam sometimes wonders if he has offended God and his old man recently, why is this trip not only not profitable, but so unlucky? Not only did the goods be lost, but now even this little life is in the hands of others. Sam didn't want to die, so he was left with a male in the Lance family, two brothers also died in the plague, and there was a younger sister to be fed at home, which was really a bad year.

Seeing Sam shut his mouth, Bysel finally smiled a little, "That's right, if you want me to say, you know Slavic and Swedish and Danish languages, and you also know Germanic languages, you are completely a talent, wouldn't it be good to stay with me and listen to it?" ”

"I'm good for you, a big-headed ghost" Sam wrinkled his nose, his fat face trembled slightly, although Sam was in the middle of the road and was only a small businessman, but his mind was quite clear. At present, the most rumors in the entire Western land are not the Holy Empire, let alone the Eastern Romans, but the mysterious and powerful Orientals. Now Kipros is the territory of the Orientals, and even if you really want to find someone to take refuge into, then you should find the Orientals. In fact, Sam's biggest dream is not to march and fight, but to do business, he dreams of recreating the glory of the Lance family, if one day, he can have his own caravan, trade across the east, west, north and south, then even if he is willing to die.

As he spoke, he was already close to the Ryazan River, and Bysil didn't bother to pay attention to Sam, and ordered to go down, everyone turned over and got on their horses, and everyone prepared their longbows and rockets, ready to go. Less than two miles from the Ryazan River, at the speed of cavalry, it was there in the blink of an eye. Bysil waited too long, he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and said loudly, "Brothers, the Ryazan River is ahead, and the time has come to make meritorious contributions. ”

More than 5,000 elite cavalry divided into 5,000 troops, and at the same time let out a roar that shook the sky, and the cavalry galloped like a sharp sword out of its sheath. The killing was just around the corner, and the fat Sam wanted to cry without tears, how unjust it would be if he died here, and he dragged his fat body to find a depression to hide. Because he was running too fast, it was too dark, and he stepped on something, Sam screamed and lay directly on the ground, his fat face was still sticking to something, and there was a foul smell in his mouth and nose. Sam really cried this time, he sat next to him and tears flowed down, he actually had horse manure on his face, he was unlucky to this extent, it was better to die happily, at this moment, Sam felt that everyone couldn't get along with him, even the horse manure was bullied by honest people.

How Sam was unlucky, others couldn't take care of it, the Germans had already paid all their attention to the Ryazan River, and they attacked the horse pen in five directions, some attacked the horse pen, some burned the camp, and in an instant the camp on the Ryazan River was on fire. This season, the weather is dry, the wind is strong, and the withered hay is stained with flames, which ignite directly, and the flames are everywhere, and thick smoke billows everywhere. The Germanic attack came so suddenly that many of the soldiers of the Dingguo Army did not recover at all, and even Jerusha was stunned by the scene before him. How could there be Germanic cavalry near the Ryazan River, did they fly over? It's a pity that the Germans didn't ride pegasus, and there are no myths in this world at all.

The horse ring in the south was destroyed, the camp was burned, and the Germanic troops were fighting, where could the soldiers of the Dingguo Army stop it? Yerusha's eyes were cracked, but he knew that he had to calm down at this time, the more he tried to fight, the faster he would die, "Zige, quickly lead people to the north, you must pull out the war horses there, I will give you a quarter of an hour, and after a quarter of an hour, I will see two thousand Tiefutu standing on the Ryazan River." ”

"Yes.... It's...."Ziggy nodded hurriedly, hugged his helmet, and dragged his sword to the north. Jerusha was not idle, he roared angrily, and listened to the iron spear standing in the center of the camp, "Array, all the living people gather in the tent, defend in a circle, don't panic." All the shields are raised, and the Germans must be blocked, and in a moment the Iron Float will be able to assemble an army. ”

Hearing the sound of Jerodha, the soldiers who were scurrying around finally found their backbone and slowly assembled in the tent, but even so, nearly 2,000 soldiers had died under the butcher's knives of the Germans in the west and south. The soldiers' rally at the tent also exposed Jerusha to the Germanic view. The Germans couldn't find where the tent was, and now they pointed the finger directly at Jerusha, "Kill the oriental, kill him..."

The Germans are crazy, the current situation, it is difficult for them not to be crazy, that is the general of the Orientals, comparable to the existence of the consul of the legion, who can kill him, the knight and the general, the money beauty is not yet captured. Jerusha finally gathered more than a thousand soldiers to form a circle, and the Germans quickly pounced, but due to the haste of the battle, the shield array was not perfect, and the Germans quickly tore a hole. Seeing a soldier stabbed to death by the Germans with a cavalry spear, Jerusha's eyes were red, he roared, his feet exerted force, his body jumped forward violently, and the spear smashed down, smashing the Germanic cavalry into the brain, snatching the war horse, and rushing forward directly, Jerusha was brave, and the Germanic soldiers who wanted to rush over died several times one after another. After several folds, the Germanic finally calmed down, and a commander hurriedly asked people to withdraw, "Prepare a longbow and shoot this guy." ”

The soldiers of the Dingguo Army around also saw that something was wrong with the situation, and they all rushed to Yelusha's side, "Save General Yelu.... Wang San, go and protect the general.... Yes... Dog thief, I'm fighting with you." The soldiers pounced, and the Germanic arrows came as well, and Jerusha dodged with his might, but his horse was crucified to death under his crotch, and one of the soldiers threw Jerusha to the ground, and behind him were several feathered arrows. Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar faces in front of him, there seemed to be something in Jerusha's throat, he didn't even know what the soldier's name was, one by one the brave soldiers fell, and the Germanic strangulation came to an end. Jerusha suddenly straightened up, the corners of her mouth grinning, and she couldn't stop sneering.

Bysil knew Yerusha, who was on the Plateau of Tymer when he was in the Temyr Plateau, and the Iron Float led by this man was impressive, and the heavily armored Iron Float left an indelible nightmare for many people. Bysil looked at the person in front of him with joy, this is God's favor, but he didn't expect to meet this person. This man is a big man, and his position is equal to that of Lord Dorle, and it would be a great credit to kill him. Bysil didn't think of persuasion, for people like this, persuasion was an insult to him, "Whoever can take his head together, I will guarantee to Lord Schwein, give him the status of a noble baron, hereditary replacement, and never regret it." God testifies that if you break this oath, you will fall into the dark hell. ”

"Kill.... Kill...."The passion that had just cooled down burned again, and the man fought on the battlefield, isn't it fame and fortune? This man is heroic, but so what, he still can't stop the attack of millions of people. Jerusha was waiting, he was ready to die on the Ryazan. At this moment, there was a rumbling sound between heaven and earth, and the feet were trembling, and beside the bright river, a black ghost surged. Black iron armor, black war horses, black iron spears, yes, it's the terrifying Iron Floating Massacre, they finally appeared. Yerusha's caution allowed these Iron Floats to survive, because these Iron Floats were camped on the north bank, so they suffered the least damage, under the leadership of Zige, these soldiers quickly put on their armor and turned into a team of Iron Floats, and then repelled the enemy troops attacking the north camp, they quickly rushed to the south bank of the Ryazan River without stopping, all the corpses of their comrades were seen along the way, the corpses of the Germanic people were very few, these Iron Float soldiers were covered with anger, they wanted to take revenge, even if there was no ancient town cavalry and light cavalry, The Iron Float can still crush everything. A great cavalryman should be fearless.
