Chapter 12 Two Strategies

Bavaria's distance from Kherson is in fact about the same as that of the combined forces of Brandenburg and Hesse. It's just that Henry, who is like an old ruffian, insisted on being late for nearly a week under various excuses, as if it weren't for this, his character and independence would not be reflected.

Like the armies of Hesse and Brandenburg, Bavaria was stronger than the two German princes in terms of overall strength. But because Henry had not been on the throne for a long time, his savings were not as large as those two countries. Therefore, the number of troops dispatched was also 10,000, and in terms of quality, it was not comparable to the armies of Hesse and Brandenburg. With the exception of a small number, of about three thousand, the rest of the seventy percent were improvised noble armies and even spontaneously organized pilgrim troops.

This gave him and several European princes the capital to watch his jokes.

In fact, in the course of their interactions with the Normans, the vast majority of nations had come to realize the limitations of the old feudal levies. During this period of Norman expansion into Eastern Europe, reforms were carried out to a greater or lesser extent - as were the case with the previous three, Hungary, Hesse and Brandenburg. Henry, however, did not communicate much with the Normans. After receiving the title of Duke of Bavaria, the war between Germany and the Normans ceased. So I didn't see the elite of the Norman soldiers. The prosperity of national strength.

In addition, that guy relied on the support of the Bavarian nobles to obtain the title, so he relied on the aristocracy a lot. While neighboring countries have carried out military and political reforms, this guy has maintained the traditional and ancient aristocratic rule after coming to power. To a certain extent, though, the political situation in Bavaria has remained very stable. It also attracted a certain influx of refugees, making Henry quite complacent. In reality, however, the gap with other countries has widened......

Along the way, Henry is also thinking about the gains and losses of his own governance. Seeing the Norman Empire so strong and glorious. Along the way, there is a wealth of the country and the people. I can't help but feel a little lost. And after entering Kherson, he saw the armies of three other countries. The Hungarian hussars, the Hessian heavy infantry, and the Brandenburg Knights. All of them made Henry feel terrified. At the port of Kherson. After the countless sails that covered the sky and the huge castle-like ships, I felt even more dizzy.

"In the long run...... Bavaria is in danger. ”

Henry and his senior staff officer, confidant, former envoy to the Norman Empire, and now the commander of his army, Wallenstein glanced at each other, and they could see the horror in each other's eyes.

After a day's visits, and arranging the garrison of the army, Henry still felt a little haunted at the dinner - not as good as the Norman Empire. Egil's genius. The Norman Empire was rich and prosperous. Bavaria, on the other hand, is a small German state. Not as good as it can be, and it can't be compared to - however, it is not as good as Hesse and Brandenburg, which is a big deal - both sides are in Germany, and in the event of a conflict and a fight between the two sides - it is a matter of life and death!

"Lord, it looks like it's time to reformulate our national focus. Wallenstein whispered to Henry.

"That's true...... It's up to you. Henry thought to himself that he was now in his fifties. And then look at Egil, who sat at the chief and laughed - the guy was only twenty-one years old. I can't help but feel sour, salty and bitter in my heart, and I have all the tastes. At the same time, he secretly cursed Egil for not being able to give birth to children, and the world was peaceful.

"This crusade is to recover the Holy Land and spread the Gospel. It's all up to you. At this moment, Egil completely regarded himself as the leader of the alliance, and he regarded himself as a general—of course, no one dared to oppose him at this moment—and Henry of Bavaria still had some ideas. But today, after a round trip to Kherson. That little thought vanished.

So there was a "how dare you" and "how dare you" below. "Passing the prize" and "passing the prize". echoed voices. Immediately afterwards, Attila asked, "Then Your Majesty, what is your Majesty's strategy for defeating the enemy in this crusade? ”...,

Egil nodded, then chuckled, "There's no hurry—it's not there yet. This statute should be elaborated on when King Charles of Burgundy comes. ”

"Although it is true that it is impossible to explain in detail, but to talk about it in general, let us have a good bottom in our hearts. That's fine. Lucived was also a little excited—the weather was getting cold in October, and now the wine table was hot. A strong liquor that can keep out the cold. Very top-notch kind.

"yes, Egil, tell me a little bit about what you're afraid of. Artoria slapped Egil on the shoulder, nearly knocking His Majesty the Norman Emperor to his knees—and she had drunk a lot.

Although, in general, Egil didn't want his queen to come out to see people. However, Artoria was not only the queen of Norman, but also the queen of the Kingdom of Northwest Britain. This time the army was sent to conquer Egypt. The Kingdom of Britain is also all the way. Even, in terms of name, it is higher than the three German dukes Luciver, Albrecht and Henry. It is unreasonable not to let her attend.

"Okay, then I'll tell you a little bit...... But just listen to it. But don't say it. Egil laughed and looked left and right. The maid who served the feast immediately left consciously. The atmosphere around him immediately became a little more serious. The dukes and kings were a little drunk. But I'm still very concerned about the matter, and I nodded again and again and never passed it on. They all pricked up their ears and began to listen to Egil.

"That's right - today there is the Norman Empire's Offshore Fleet, and the improvised Temporary Fleet, consisting of the Baltic Fleet and the Black Sea Fleet. Plus our allies. The Mediterranean Fleet, the Sea of Marmara Fleet, the Aegean Fleet and the Black Sea Fleet of the Eastern Roman Empire - such a huge naval size. It is absolutely fine to blockade the ports of the infidels of Egypt and the devils. What I mean by this is to draw some of the elite light cavalry, as well as the faster galleons, to land in Syria, and in various places along the coast of Egypt, to raid, harass, and destroy. In order to reduce the strength of the infidels, the will to fight. Our main force landed at Antioch and attacked Jerusalem with the overwhelming force of Mount Tai. Defeat the Demon King Saladin who is entrenched there. Liberate the Holy Land!"

Egil's declaration in the first half of the year made the other kings and dukes who admired the chivalry of the dignified battle a little unimpressed. However, the second half is quite to their liking. A group of straight-up Yaga automatically ignored the harassment tactics that Egil had said in the first half, and shouted for the liberation of the Holy Land and the spread of the Gospel - to grab a big vote.

"Mud Horse, how can you tell the truth!" Egir scolded in his heart as he watched the group of dukes and kings dance wildly......

In this way, after a fuss in the middle of the night, the drunken princes were dragged away like dead dogs and went to sleep. Egil also picked up Artoria and went back to his palace, preparing to take advantage of Artoria's drink too much and play a few poses that she was not usually happy with.

"Hmm...... Egil ......, "It's just that Artoria, who was drunk, seemed to have a brain controller that had failed, and her hands were not light or heavy, and she fluttered in Egil's arms. Almost knocked Egil to the punch.

It's really not a problem with Egil's physique - Artoria's attack is not light or heavy at this moment, and he has to leave a mark on the steel armor with one punch. This made Egil a little worried: if she did play some positions with Artoria as she wanted, she reacted and resisted. Will you break your own gherkins?

"Hani, I'm here. Egil dismissed the idea and decided to wait for Artoria to come to his senses before making those attempts. Let's use an ordinary male to take the position today.

"It's ...... Where are you?" Artoria asked after hearing Egil close her eyes again.

"We're getting ready to go back. ”

“...... Oh. Artoria closed her eyes, put her arms around Egil's neck, and wrapped her legs around Egil's waist, and hung on Egil like a koala. ...,

"Don't make a fuss. Egil blushed slightly, and he drank a lot, and his steps were a little shaky. In this way, as soon as Artoria's posture is adjusted, his center of gravity is a little unstable. It was a couple of swings before it barely stabilized.

Seeing Egil make a fool of himself like this, Artoria couldn't help but laugh.

"Stupid, what are you laughing at?" Egil was slightly upset and slapped Artoria in the ass.

"Not really. It's that, it's that-" Artoria squirmed, leaning closer against Egil's body, and then asked, "The strategy you talked to those guys just now seems to be different from the strategy you told me before...... Which one is true?"

"Of course I'm telling you the truth. Egil chuckled: "That strategy, those who are rigid-minded, who only know how to charge head-on, and who think one-sidedly, will not understand." ”

"Oh...... That's right. Artoria chuckled, indeed—" Then he kissed Egil on the face. So Egil also fell to the ground because of his unstable center of gravity.

"Stupid, you're so heavy...... Hurry up and get down......" Artoria grumbled.

"That's not what you said last night......" Egil ran out of energy. Just lay on Altoria and whispered. (To be continued). If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
