If the other party is an elite professional army, Randy's shameless behavior will not only not make them feel frightened, but will make them feel more angry and burst out stronger resistance.

However, the situation was the opposite, and the king, who had just spoken generously and heroically and inspiringly, fell in an instant, and the little courage that these peasant soldiers had just summoned up immediately fell to the bottom at the speed of rockets.

Under the command of Robin Hood, the commander of the longbowmen, two thousand longbowmen drew their bows and fired intensively at the enemy's formation.

"Hold the formation! Raise the shield, raise the shield! ”

The nobles and knight commanders yelled, but these conscripted peasant soldiers were really unbearable, and the shouts of the commanders did not make the array of peasant soldiers stand better, and the improvised large shields in their hands were even more chaotic, and even accidentally opened the heads of their companions next to them.

As always, the tactics of heavy cavalry charged......

A well-deserved king-level class on the battlefield of the Middle Ages, heavily equipped armored cavalry, and a terrifying number of 2,500 people.

And the guys with noble titles in the rebels on the opposite side, plus their vassal knights and ranger knights, add up to only 500 people, and only a few are equipped with armor, and the equipment of the horses is unimaginable.

800 Norman Elite Knights, 1200 Improved Tomahawk Cavalry, 500 Field Orders,

The earth shook with the sound of horses' hooves, and many of the recruited peasants were so frightened that they could not even escape, and became meat sauce under the feet of the hoplites.

The commander-in-chief was killed......

Rain of arrows......

Heavy cavalry trampled ......

After three successive attacks, the noble rebels undoubtedly collapsed.

A small number of nobles and knights became a piece of meat under the feet of the hoplites, but the vast majority became deserters,

"All the troops are attacking!"

In just one battle, the entire noble rebel army was crushed.

From the puppet king Henry IV, Duke of Lancaster and below, the high-ranking nobles above the baron, a total of 29 were killed, 36 were captured and hanged, these nobles who participated in the rebellion were mercilessly cut down by Randy, all the territories were confiscated, and the whole family, including illegitimate children, slaves, and even pet dogs, were hanged in London, and the dried corpses reminded passers-by who is the real ruler of this country!

The spoils obtained from the extermination of the rebels included tens of thousands of serfs, 100,000 gold coins obtained from the raid of their homes, and a large number of estates and fields.

Together, these resources made the whole of England truly in Randy's hands, and at the same time, Randy had more land to canonize the Norman elite knights, expand the National Knights, and have more serfs to pay taxes.

In the six cities of England, the tax paid in April did not decrease due to the war, but on the contrary, increased by 34,000 gold coins.

On the one hand, it is because of the completion of the construction of paved roads connecting various cities.

On the one hand, Randy has cracked down on domestic separatist forces and abolished tax checkpoints in various places, making business and trade more convenient.

The most important of these is the proceeds from Randy's confiscation of the noble rebel territory.

Although the mountains and rivers of England killed by the iron and bloody wrists changed color, but the effect was excellent, at least the remaining English nobles finally understood their fear, Randy continued to implement policies such as prohibiting private fighting, judicial power to the royal court, and salt and iron monopoly, no one objected, one by one, obediently like his grandson, Randy suspected that even if he told them to eat at this time, they would do it.

"Therefore love and hatred cannot coexist, and if you want to choose, the latter is more suitable."

Looking at Enides' report for the previous month, Randy muttered to himself.

——————————

May, early summer!

The grass grows and the warbler flies and blooms, and Randy takes his wife out of the city to hunt in the suburbs.

At this time, after nearly a year and a half of imperialist decay, Randy has completely forgotten the teachings of New China and has become a qualified feudal monarch who lives by oppressing the toiling masses.

It's just that Randy's face wasn't very good along the way, half of the reason was because of the weather, and the other half was because of the wife next to him.

The couple did not bring much of an entourage, and together they were only three hundred and fifty men, one hundred and fifty of whom were knights of the Guards, and the other two hundred were Sherwood marksmen.

Of course, this time it didn't come out for fun, although the knights of the guard were eager to try, and the Sherwood marksman wanted to do some old jobs, but Randy gave an extremely cruel order, no!

According to the newly published National Law on Mountain Forestry, all mountains and forests and mines are owned by the state, that is, Randy.

All the prey in this grove naturally belongs to Randy. Whoever dares to steal it is illegal, and if he is caught, he will chop his hands directly, and the Sherwood marksmen are now also characters who eat imperial food, so they naturally will not defy the law.

But Randy was still not satisfied, not because the movement of hundreds of people was too big to scare away the prey, in fact, in fact, the stealth skills of Sherwood's marksmen were good, and the camouflage outfits on their bodies were scented with grass and would not make too much noise.

What Randy is really dissatisfied with is that his wife is actually better than him in terms of bows and arrows.

But rightfully so! This time, Randy didn't rely on the exchange of the Enides system cheating, but relied on himself to learn a little, and by the way, he relied on the cheating weapon of the wrench, and naturally couldn't play Artoria, who had been practicing bows and arrows desperately since he was sensible.

But in the end, Randy still relied on hand-to-hand combat to capture a timberwolf and save some face for himself.

Looking at the lame old wolf who almost burst into tears and just came out to play soy sauce, Randy showed no mercy and raised his knife in his hand......

Just then, an agent arrived!

Randy took the parchment roll handed by the agent, took a cursory look at it, snorted coldly, stepped on horseback, and ran in the direction of London.

"What?!"

Completely ignoring Artoria's whining, Randy returns to London as fast as he can.

Go home!

Back to Northern Europe!

Back to that snowy Scandinavia!!

Although the British Isles are also northern, they are not comparable to Scandinavia, and Randy still underestimates the wear and tear of the heroic will of the southern water towns, and maybe if this happens, Randy will say goodbye to the road to conquer the world.

There is only one thing written on the parchment roll:

Sweden, Denmark, and the two countries formed a coalition to march into Norway on the grounds that Randy was arrogant and claimed to be the king of all the Normans.

The time chosen by the alliance of the two countries is very good, Randy's main army is still in the British Isles, and some time ago there was news of the rebellion of the English Noble Alliance, Randy is currently in a difficult time at home and abroad, and this is a good time to march.

But the two Nordic countries didn't know that the rebels of the Noble Alliance had long been wiped out by Randy, after all, not everyone had such a developed intelligence transmission system as Randy.

The combined forces of the two countries include 35,000 Swedish troops, all of whom are elite divisions that have followed Gustav and fought on the Baltic coast for several years, plus more than 10,000 Danish troops, along the route of last year's invasion, ready to gnaw on the hard bone of Oslo.

Eventually, Randy's spy network, along with the newly recruited native garrison, bought him precious time so that the situation in Norway would not collapse in an instant.

Despite this, the local garrison was eventually too small to abandon Oslo and use the fortified city to block the enemy's attack.

When Randy received the letter, it said that the other party had been besieging the city for more than three days in a row, and although it could hold on for the time being, the situation was worrying.

"Damn! I have not provoked you, but you have provoked me. ”

Randy quickly instructed the spy leader Nameless: "Send someone to call Carter, the navy is all ready, the British can leave 5,000 garrisons, and the rest of the main force will follow me back to Northern Europe." ”

Randy sat in his palace study, and when he thought of the fall of Norway, the two cities of Bergen and New Nijmegen, which had been the most developed, and the destruction of the largest fortress in Oslo, Randy longed to fly back to Northern Europe with two wings.

Whether it's the toll tax on the Öresund waterway, or the cities that have developed in Northern Europe, the population and the land, Randy can't give them away anyway, but now he can't do anything, not to mention how uncomfortable it feels.

After reading the contents of the parchment scroll, Artoria also understood the seriousness of the matter, and opened her mouth to comfort: "Although I have not been to Northern Europe, I heard you tell me before that the defense systems of Oslo and New Nijmegen are quite good, and there are enough guard troops and enough food and ordnance reserves, according to the relationship between us and the dwarves, it is impossible for them to obtain the resources of the dwarven siege equipment, so calculated, these two cities can be defended for at least half a year, and it will only take a month or two for our army to return, which is absolutely in time. ”

Hearing Artoria's comfort, Randy was slightly relieved to see the spy walk in nameless and ask, "Is there any news about the negotiations with Novgorod?" ”

"It's difficult! Rurik, Prince of Novgorod, seems to have been frightened by the Swedes, and his national strength has not yet recovered, and he is not interested in our proposal to unite with Sweden, although he has promised them a lot of benefits, but Rurik is still not moved, plus this time the Swedes take the initiative to attack us, I am afraid that it will ......"

Randy gave a mocking look, "No! If the other side is really smart, he will agree to our alliance request, and then he will not do his part, and when there is a surprising turn on the battlefield, he will really support us. But now it seems that this so-called Prince Rurik is not smart. ”

Northern Europe......

Scandinavia......

Randy's 5,000 garrison recruited through Enides is divided into two parts.

3,500 men garrisoned New Nijmegen and 1,500 garrisoned Oslo, where the terrain was more precarious.

Speaking of which, 4,000 professional Viking warriors, 1,000 crossbowmen, this kind of pure infantry and no strong offensive ability, was designated as a town garrison from the beginning.

And the general of the 5,000-man garrison, a four-star general Anderson, also understood his mission, so from the very beginning, when he got the news of the large-scale offensive of the coalition forces of the two countries, he set a strategy that could not be held, and the final actual battle also proved that such a strategy was correct, although Bergen in the north was only broken after holding out for a short time, but New Nijmegen and Oslo were still as solid as a rock, and it seemed that it would not be a problem to hold for a year and a half.

It's just that the other party doesn't seem to be impatient, after Bergen plundered a lot of wealth, it also made the other party more determined to continue the siege, and the Swedish army, which was fed by money, after three consecutive days and three nights of siege, Anderson was eager to deal with it, but also more eager for the arrival of reinforcements.

Therefore, it is absolutely not a problem for the two cities of New Nijmegen and Oslo to be garrisoned for a year and a half, but Randy did not dare to slack off, stopped all entertainment activities, and led nearly 25,000 elite troops to Norway on 400 warships respectively.

Along the way, Randy lamented his unexpected good fortune and praised God in extremely pious language, of course, it is unknown how sincere these words were.

In short, 25,000 troops, and 4,500 navies, arrived in the Danish capital, Aarhus.

Preliminary budget, now a long time before the fall of Oslo and New Nijmegen.

Especially Oslo, because the outer city by the sea has no city walls, and it is all commercial and military docks, and Randy's return with the main fleet is equivalent to an increase of 30,000 troops in Oslo, which is impossible to lose anyway.

After a month and a half of stormy weather, Randy is finally blown away by the sea breeze.

Or a very good strategic idea, which has been completed.

The diplomat No. 2 sent by Randy promised to cede the Holstein region to the Holy Roman Empire after the capture of Denmark, and the Elector of Nijmegen, von IV, indifferently promised that he would not intervene in the Norman civil war, but in the end, whether Randy would speak and count, and whether Feng IV would really not intervene, these things are still unclear, and this is just an empty promise for both sides.

All in all, though, Randy has a little less to worry about attacking Denmark proper.

The so-called siege of Wei to save Zhao, I believe that a group of European mud legs must have never seen it.

Driven by this idea, Randy's 30,000 troops landed in three separate areas at Jutland, Zealand, and Schlesuita at the same time, and they faced Denmark, which had just experienced a civil war and the main force was all thrown into the war against Norway.

As if in an upgraded version of the previous campaign, the Öresund Waterway was once again blocked by Randy's navy, and then the entire navy was split in two, half of which continued to blockade the Öresund waterway and cut off the Danes from sea supplies, while the other continued eastward, after receiving supplies on the island of Gotland, to blockade and plunder the Swedish coast.

Randy was confident that Denmark would collapse again, and more completely than the last one.

In the morning mist, Randy's troops seemed to be out of sight.

The menacing army, dressed in shining armor and armed with tomahawk shields, stepped out little by little, and was immediately seen by a peasant on the outskirts of Aarhus who had risen a little too early and was working hard.

The peasant's face, which had always been numb, instantly became extremely shocked, as if he had seen something terrible, and a sound came from his throat, and the poor fellow was so frightened that he could not speak, and then out of the army came a hooded spy with an ordinary face.
