Chapter 245: The Battle of the Collapsed Fort (2)

Collapse Fort.

The towering castle walls are brightly lit, and this castle is currently the most critical castle in the offensive route of O'Neill's rebels, and the owner of the castle is the Christian family of "Black Bear".

The crest of the Christian family is a majestic black bear, and their family has also inherited the inherent heroic temperament of the Northlanders, and several patriarchs are bearded uncles, plus their personalities are stubborn like stones, so many people call them Black Bear Christians.

Not long ago.

On the occasion of the first spring ploughing day, O'Neill suddenly attacked the forward guard tower of the Fallen Fort on the river beach in front of the Fallen Fort, and after hearing the news, the Christian family did not retreat, and they brazenly met the enemy.

Perhaps the enemy did not anticipate the prowess of the Christians, and they fought O'Neill's rebels for a night at the riverbank camp, leaving behind countless corpses on both sides and retreating.

Just because the Christian family is called the "Black Bear Family" doesn't mean they're stupid.

After learning that O'Neill was taken over by Earl Andy, they were also afraid of this strange general, and at the first time, they sent a rescue signal just like Diana and the Laurentian family.

The Collapsed Fort at night is like a fortress.

The character of the northerners is very rough, and the way they build the city is also simple and rude, and the largest and strongest possible is the characteristic of the northland architecture. The black bear family has taken this feature to the extreme.

"The Black Bear Family's Collapsed Fort is a piece of fat......"

Not far away, a group of cavalry in the dark was looking at the castle under the nose of the Black Bear family, and the knight at the head was unexpectedly Count Andy, the Lord of the Western Realm was wearing battle armor, and he looked a little less noble and a little more military.

"My lord, the reason why the Collapse Fortress is called the Collapse Fortress is precisely because of its low southern lying, the whole castle looks like it is about to collapse, and it only takes a few more attacks on me, and we can successfully attack the city......" A knight with a face hidden under the helmet said in a very calm tone.

However, Andy didn't respond, he looked at the Collapse Fort carefully, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "Don't attack, keep the rhythm of the past few days, surround the Collapse Fort, and pull out all the guard tower camps on the north side, I want them to see and hear the movement in the north......"

"But my lord, there is no need, there is no danger to defend the south side of the Collapse Fort, and the men and horses we brought from Byron Fort can directly bypass here and attack the rear of the Northland!"

"I know," Andy nodded noncommittally, and he said softly, "There is no need to surprise the Northlands, we are here to fight them!"

After saying that, he didn't care about the knight's doubts, raised his long whip and drove the horse into the darkness.

Like Andy said, Fort Collapse is a piece of fat, and by removing it, O'Neill opens the way to the Northland and the Central, and for everyone else, it's a must-take place.

The knight was right, Andy didn't come to O'Neill alone, he still had the strength of several banner regiments in Byron Castle at the beginning, especially the cavalry, and their cavalry could completely bypass the Collapse Fort and rush to the Northland.

In this way, it is indeed possible to do surprises.

But none of this is what Andy wants.

This general, who once relied on surprise attacks to defeat Vitan, his thoughts are like clouds that cannot be grasped, this time, what he wants is not a surprise attack, but a frontal battle.

As everyone knows.

O'Neill has been in rebellion for some time, and during this time, the entire city has been almost at a standstill, all production has been stopped, and everyone is busy training to protect their families.

It's a terrible situation.

Hundreds of thousands of people are not engaged in production, and when Andy arrives at O'Neill, if it were not for the support of some of the workers' leaders and other forces behind them, I am afraid that O'Neill would have collapsed without Andy coming.

However, the current situation is not optimistic.

Although Andy brought a lot of food, hundreds of thousands of mouths are not a small number, and if this is not dealt with, Andy is afraid that he will be dragged down by O'Neill's huge mouth.

So, on the occasion of the first spring ploughing day, he immediately went to war.

Many people say that war is a continuation of politics, and that any war is waged for profit. Like this war started by Andy, he was not for profit, but to divert disaster.

Andy is a hero.

After learning about O'Neill's situation, he is planning how to deflect the disaster. O'Neill has hundreds of thousands of people, including tens of thousands of young adults, these people can go to the battlefield with a little training, although they are cannon fodder, but sometimes the quantity can be piled up to death.

When tens of thousands of people have gone through several wars, they become an iron fist that breaks everything.

As the saying goes, "when the cannon goes off, the gold is ten thousand taels", O'Neill can quickly obtain resources through foreign wars, and transfer his own disasters to the entire Northland, which is Andy's purpose.

And that's not all.

The Collapse Fort is a piece of fat because behind it is a road to any of the Northlands.

This is Andy's cognition, and this is the cognition of all people.

But it has to be said that Andy is indeed a ruthless person.

In his opinion, fatty meat is good, but it is not for appetite.

The whole Northland was regarded by him as a dish, and he wanted the best part.

Judging from the current situation, the Collapse Fort has about the strength of a banner regiment of the Christian family, at best five or six thousand people, but the troops in the hands of those Northland lords behind him are terrifying.

A surprise attack on the Northland is indeed feasible, but the point is that it is not profitable after a surprise attack.

For Andy, all he wants is to turn the area of the Collapsed Fort into a meat grinder.

On the north side of the Collapsed Fort, he had about 20,000 troops, most of whom were O'Neill's workers, and after a brief training, everyone could barely go to war.

These 20,000 men will continue to put pressure on the Collapse Fort.

You must know that the important location of the Collapsed Fort is obvious to all the people of the Northland, once the Collapsed Fort is oppressed, the subsequent Northland Lords will inevitably increase their troops, but according to the carrying capacity of the Collapsed Fort, the reinforcements will not be too many at one time.

This time.

Andy will continue to exert pressure to force a steady stream of reinforcements to arrive, turning Fort Collapse into the main battlefield, with tens of thousands of workers and soldiers as the main force, constantly depleting the living forces of the Northland, and then Andy's Byerburg Legion will give everyone the final blow.

Andy refers to this plan as the "Bloodletting Project of the Collapsed Fort".

His hand not only consumed O'Neill's excess labor, but also plunged the northern land into a quagmire, and at the same time preserved his own strength, in Andy's heart, he still had the deepest fear of Wang Xiaotian in the west.

Judging from the fact that he sent the workers to the Cave Castle like consumables, this Count Andy was not only a cruel man to himself, but also a terrible person who did not hesitate to shed blood to achieve his goals.
