Chapter 1200: Enlightenment

Not only Kipros, but also the entire Western countries do not have a unified currency, the currency in circulation in each country is very different, many places are closed to news, and they are still within the scope of the lord system, so the commodity trade is barter, and the currency only exists among the nobles, so for the long-distance merchants, every time they transport goods, it is a long-distance journey, full of difficulties and obstacles. It is a miracle that a traveler like Sam belongs to the most ordinary people, and he can maintain such a rich state all day long.

Sam was in a state of distress, and by this time he had cast God aside, and God had never favored him. In the past few days, bad luck has continued, and he was forced by the Germans from the red pine forest to the Ryazan River, and finally survived from the battlefield, but was caught by the Orientals again. Fortunately, he could speak a few simple Chinese words, otherwise he would have been taken prisoner by the Germans and beheaded on the spot. It's been two days, and Sam hasn't been able to close his eyes, lying in the grass and the depression, and he has witnessed the great battle with his own eyes. The collision of all cavalry was unheard of, and in the same way, Sam also saw the strength of the Eastern cavalry, and the Germans were arrogant for a long time, and then collapsed under the counterattack of the Easterners. Sam was really a little afraid, because the military tent was completely destroyed, and the temporary broken tent was leaking everywhere, Sam himself was very afraid, and he was blown by the autumn wind, and the whole person was trembling. Seeing Sam's appearance, Yerusha smiled bitterly and shook his head, hey, although the Great Song Dynasty has not been in Kipros for a short time, for most Westerners, the Great Song Empire is still a beast-like existence. Looking at Noki Cave, Yerusha pouted, as if to say that Lao Tzu looks so scary? Noki Cafe can understand Sam, when he first saw the Eastern army, he Noki Cafe was also frightened, no matter how Oriental people say it, they are yellow-skinned, black-haired and black-eyed, and the strangeness between each other is too deep, and it is difficult to be afraid.

"You know the highland language, you said you are from Wood Island, then I have a question for you, how is the situation on Wood Island now, how is the Dufeng Bridge on the island being built?" Noki Craft gave Sam a kind smile, and he looked like a peaceful academy wise man rather than a tiger general leading the troops. Noki Cafe has a sense of intimacy, and with the same Westerner traits, Sam has a lot less fear. The words he asked seemed simple, but in fact, there was a hidden mystery, the purpose was to try whether this fat man was a real Wood Island person, but it was impossible for the Swedes not to know about Wood Island, because the Swedes transported goods 100% had to pass through Wood Island by water. Sam didn't think too much about it, and replied respectfully, "Returning to my lordship, the situation on Wood Island is very good, and when I left Hylaren a few months ago, the docks on the island were still expanding. Dufeng Bridge, the little ones have never heard of it, where did the adults hear about it? ”

Sam didn't think that Noki Cafe was testing him, so he didn't hide it at all, Noki Cafe kept observing the expression on Sam's face, although he still looked a little apprehensive, but he didn't hesitate too much when answering, which means that Sam didn't lie. After confirming Sam's identity, Noki Kraft was also a lot relieved, as long as it was not a Germanic spy, there would not be much of a problem. After making sure that Sam had no problem, Jerusha waved his hand and motioned Sam to stand up and reply, in fact, until now, Jerusha was most concerned about how the Germans came to the Ryazan River, "Your name is Sam, right?" Ask you a few questions, and be sure to answer them truthfully, since you have traveled with Germanic people along the way, do you know how these people passed through the red pine forest? As far as we know, the soil near the red pine forest is soft, like a swamp, and although the water level drops in autumn and the soil becomes harder, it is impossible for a cavalry to pass through. ”

What he was afraid of was the last thing Sam wanted to talk about was this secret, not that he intended to make a fortune on this road. Sam is not a fool, the Germans were able to pass through the red pine forest quietly, and he, the Swede, is a great contribution, so to speak, because he pointed out this road, which directly led to the unprecedented misery of the Orientals in the Ryazan River, and if the truth is telled, Sam feels that he will be chopped into minced meat. It must not be said that Sam lowered his head, his fat face was wrinkled, and his head was spinning rapidly, thinking about what to do. As soon as Sam hesitated, Jerusha and the others remembered it, Ren Phenol held the saber hard, pulled it out suddenly, and made a cold voice, "Why, you still don't tell the truth?" Fatty, listen well, you only have one chance, and if you don't tell the truth, go and see your God." Ren Phenol was already rugged, and once he showed his hideous face, like a beast, Sam was almost thrown to the ground.

At this time, even if Sam was given ten dares, he didn't dare to tell a lie, so he had to grit his teeth and say, "Your Excellency doesn't know, in fact, there is a road in the red pine forest that can be passed directly, and this road was accidentally discovered by our family when they went to Eastern Rome to do business. But adults, you must think of the villain, and the little one was forced to tell the Germans about this road, not intentionally to harm you. ”

As the fat man Sam explained the ins and outs of the Red Pine Forest incident clearly, Yerusha's face became hideous and terrifying, mixed with deep unwillingness, he Yerusha swept the world, and the Iron Floating Massacre attacked everything, but it turned out to make this inconspicuous fat man a pit. Now that I think about it, those brothers died unjustly, just because of a few words from the fat man, thousands of people lost their lives, and the little people sometimes really play a big role. According to the temper of being a general in Liao State before, he had already pulled out the fat man of this pit man and cut it down. But now Jerusha is much more mature, and although he is unwilling, he does not implicate Sam. Many things are destined in the dark, maybe keeping a fat man will be of great use in the future. I can't help but think of the Matu House captured during the attack on the city of Ukhta, these people may be able to compare thousands of troops and horses if they are used well. During this time, Yelusha listened to Xiao Zhiyun and Dongfang Jin talk a lot of truths, and His Royal Highness had an ancient plan in his chest, to open up the east and west, form a passage across the east and west, and set the national army and sailors to enter the North Sea, then there will be a war with the Danes in the future. Keeping the Matu House is to take a fancy to the identity of the Matu House in the Viking fleet, and this Sam is the same, maybe he can use him to get a lot of unexpected gains, "Come on, take this fat man down first." ”

Sam didn't dare to argue either, it was good to be alive. Ren Phenol and the others showed strange looks, and Noki Cafe was puzzled, "This fat man sent thousands of our soldiers to the mouths of the Germans with a single word, and he couldn't solve the hatred in his heart without killing." Why didn't the general leave him alone, but just watched him? "Sometimes Noki Kraft wondered whether the Orientals were cruel or merciful, sometimes they were murderous, sometimes they were kind.

"Sam is just a small character, and although he gave that way to the Germans, it was also for survival. He just happened to be at the right time, and if he was angry with others, it would be underestimated. It's still useful to keep this person, isn't he from some wooden island, His Royal Highness has been planning the Baltic Sea plan recently, and it is estimated that he will be needed, so keep it for the time being, although we don't have a lot of baggage, but there are also a lot of his stuttering" Jerusha didn't elaborate, and many things were not too clear to him. The Baltic Plan was only put on the table a month ago, and only Luo Weidenov, Xiao Fei, Dongfang Jin and others knew the specific strategy.

Noki Kraft was a smart man, and although Jerusha didn't say much, he heard something different from it. The Baltic plan, when everyone was still looking at the western part of the Istrian Heights, the Kyiv city base camp had extended its vision to the Baltic Sea, and from the very beginning, the Kyiv city side did not take the Germanic attack seriously. Some people take one step at a time, some people take one step at a time to see ten steps, and the difference in vision and strategic vision directly leads to the difference in thinking. Kyiv, for its part, appears to be cautious, but in fact it is laying a solid foundation for future operations. No wonder the garrison in the direction of Yerinburg withdrew so simply, this was to paralyze the Danes and affect their judgment. If the Danes thought that the Kyiv base camp was concentrating all its energy on fighting the Germans for the Istrian heights, then they would not have thought about the security of the Baltic Sea, and if they wanted to enter the Baltic Sea, they could not avoid the Swedes, one of which was linked to each other. It's really getting more and more interesting, Nokikav is curious, what exactly does the Kyiv city base camp think, the Baltics, the Germans, the Kingdom of Denmark, the Swedes, this is a big game of chess, and the Kyiv base camp is the standard-bearer of this game of chess.

The battle of the Ryazan River has come to an end, and the Yerusha department has safely withdrawn to Vilnius City, and Xiao Zhiyun's department has not been hindered at all, and the Germans have gathered heavy troops and easily captured the city of Psk. At least on the surface, the Germans succeeded in taking the city of Psk, forming a strategic diversion role. From then on, the Germans occupied a fortified city in the western part of the Istrian Highlands, which meant a full-scale invasion of the Istrian Highlands by Germanic powers. When many Slavs heard the news, they panicked, believing that the city of Kiev had failed, and only if it failed, would they abandon the city of Psk. The Slavic people are so eager for peace, they are tired of the war, they have finally calmed down, and the Germans are fighting again, when will there be good days?

The area around Yerinburg was too far away from the Ryazan River, and by the time the news reached Fayunna's ears, it was already nine days later. During this time, Fayunna and his Danish soldiers lived very well, with ownerless grain waiting to be harvested everywhere, and in just half a month, the Danish kingdom made a lot of money. Hearing that the Germans had captured the city of Psk, the Danish nobles led by Quasimotu began to move again, "Your Royal Highness, the Germans have now taken the city of Psk and can attack the city of Kiev at any time, should we also fight a dozen to the south?" If we still stand still, we will not have an advantage in the distribution of benefits in the future. ”

Fayuna looked at these Danish nobles with a headache, these people are really too short-sighted, the battle of the Istrian Heights has just begun, and the final ownership is not yet known, it is simply stupid to rush to attack now. However, these nobles have been blinded by the interests in front of them, Fayunna took a breath and said slowly, "The Germans have taken the city of Psk, but this king wants to ask you a few questions, do you really know about the battle of the Kakiwell River and Psk?" How the hell did the city of Psk come to be? Before and after, how are the injuries on both sides? Have you done all of this? ”

Fayunna's series of questions directly asked a few Danish nobles, Quasimotu thought for a while, and said in an even voice, "We have also read the battle report on the Istrian Highlands in detail. The Orientals lost more than 6,000 people in several large and small battles before and after, and the Germans lost more than 7,000 people, but considering that the Germans were going to attack the city, this kind of loss was also acceptable. ”

Fayuna secretly despised it, it was just a casualty figure on the surface, which was also a battle report, which was really ridiculous. He didn't want to offend Quasimotu either, but to convince these greedy nobles, he had to give these people a lesson, and slowly got up, Fayuna took a pamphlet from the table behind him, "What Master Quasimotu said is not wrong, the apparent damage is indeed true. The losses were roughly equal, but the Germans took the city of Psk, so the Germans still won the game. But.... This king thinks differently than you, and here are the details of the two battles on the Kakiwell River and Pske. You may not know that the battle of Psk never happened at all, the so-called battle of Psk City took place on the Ryazan River, when the Germans attacked Psk City, the Easterners sent all their cavalry to the Ryazan River to help, and then took the initiative to abandon Psk City. That is, the offensive and defensive battles of Pske did not exist in the strict sense of the word. You may not understand, but the king will tell you in detail. In the two major battles before and after the Khakivel River and the Ryazan River, the Orientals lost more than 4,000 foot soldiers and less than 2,000 cavalry, but the Germans lost all the cavalry, including 2,000 Blue Shield cavalry, more than 1,000 Knights of the Holy Cross, and more than half of the Red Robe Knights. There is also a piece of news, although unconfirmed, but this king feels very credible, the real loss of the elites of the Orientals is not even 3,000, and most of these elites were lost in the battle of the Ryazan River. After hearing these words, do you still think that the Orientals have failed? More than 6,000 people, less than 2,000 cavalry, exchanged the lives of more than 7,000 Germanic cavalry, if this is still called victory, then what is defeat? ”

"This...."For a while, the room was silent, and the Danish nobles were all shocked, they were shocked by Fayunna's words, but from the numerical analysis, the two sides fought to lose, and from the quality point of view, the Germans were much more miserable. Fayunna didn't mean to stop, he threw the booklet in his hand in front of everyone, and continued, "Although I don't understand the intention of the Easterners to abandon Psk City, what is hidden in it is definitely not that simple, and the Germans may not be able to hold Psk City if they occupy it. If you can take the city of Kyiv, then it makes sense to capture the city of Psk, but if you can't move the city of Kyiv, will you occupy the city of Psk to see the scenery?
