1004. Who ruined the takkale
The town of Bansk is located at the southernmost point of the Gampu plane, in the southwestern corner of the eastern rainforest, on the edge of the rainwoodland.
On the west side of the town, there is a large area of fertile land, and many of the noble domains of the local noble lords of Bansk Town are located on this flat land, and many estates have been built here, which are basically farming and grazing, but there are no horses in the pastures here.
Mainly because Lord MacDonnell was worried that the horses raised in the pasture would be cheaply given to the rebels in the eastern rainforest, so he asked the lords here to only raise some cattle and sheep in the pasture.
In fact, the land owned by the noble lords of Bansk was not very large, and it was far from the standard of a barony.
Some of the land that Surdak wanted to trade was the fertile land in this area, and he was going to confiscate and sell all the land of the noble lords who did not attend the meeting at the town hall, and the announced auction plots were soon set up in the hall of the town hall.
As for whether the original owners of those lands wanted to spend money to buy their land back, that was entirely their business, and Surdak didn't care who he sold the land to.
However, his hand did knock the noble lords who were preparing to alienate the Bena coalition army.
Some lords were willing to give some cattle and sheep to offset the purchase of land.
Most of the noble lords did not want to give away their hard-earned family business, and they were unable to resist the tyranny of Surdak, so they could only obediently take money to redeem the land.
The money was to be given to the town hall of Bansk, partly as the salaries of the civil servants of the town hall for a long time to come, partly for some financial subsidies for the farms that were going to be planted, and the last part was for the start-up fund of the aid station.
In fact, if the welfare homes and shelters are to be sustained, it will take a long time to fund, and Surdak intends to dedicate a portion of the town's future revenues to this purpose.
The second group of Resistance troops arrived in Banske from Canyon exactly a week later, in the middle of March in the Grimm Empire.
The new army, which arrived in Bansk, numbered nearly 15,000 men, and the Surdak Heavy Infantry Regiment now numbered almost 27,000 men, which was now seriously overstaffed according to the Bernard military headquarters.
The bearded Edgar and the long-legged Dennis also rushed to Bansk Town, and saw the barracks outside Bansk Town, the neat tents in the camp, and each infantry soldier was wearing exquisite full-covered armor.
In just one and a half months, it is not easy to create such a large army out of thin air, even if the Bednar military department gives the greatest authority and support.
In addition, he was accompanied by ten archmages who had rushed from Pena City, led by Archmage Morrison.
When Surdak was in the Paglos Mountains, he had a relationship with this archmage, these ten archmages are all second-turn powerhouses, and each of them has an elemental body, which was specially transferred by the law enforcement team to deal with the Dark Arts Hermitage.
Now the number of magicians who have entered the Ganbu plane has increased to forty, but the strength of the dark magic hermitage who wants to fight against the Ganbu plane is still insufficient.
In addition, this group of recruits rushed over this time, as well as ten commanders sent by the Marquis of Luther.
These officers were the backbone of the Luther Legion, and the Marquis of Luther was worried that Surdak would not be able to fully control such a large legion alone, so he transferred his own lineage to help Surdak take control of this new army.
However, what the ten commanders did not expect was that they walked into the barracks outside the town of Bansk, and the camp was actually orderly, and there was no chaos at all.
Of course, they didn't see the crosses outside the barracks that had been torn down two days earlier.
The Resistance nailed to the pillar of shame was not one or two people, they were receiving this meat. After the double baptism of body and soul, some people chose to leave, and some people still did not want to benefit in the army, and besides, they had nowhere to go, so they cheekily chose to stay.
The first thing the new rebels did on their first night in Bansk, after eating baked wheat cakes and vegetable soup, was repeatedly warned by the veterans not to steal in the barracks, and not to stand behind Lord Samira...... Peeking at her, both of these things are also very dangerous.
Of course, this time the new army joined the hoplite infantry regiment, and Surdak already had sufficient supplies, and even heavy armor could equip everyone.
Quartermaster Louis. Fitch had to repeatedly convey one thing to Surdak: 'Your army is overstaffed. ’
Surdak said: 'The extra soldiers can be used as reserves for the time being, and there are no immortals in war!' ’
At present, in addition to all kinds of armaments and materials, there are 1,200 blue-scaled horses, 2,000 Gubolai horses, and 500 ordinary horses to transport supplies. These are what Surdak needs most at the moment, and he is going to bring these horses back to the Bailin plane in the future, after all, the military department asked him to come to the Ganbu plane in the first place, and he only established a heavy infantry corps.
In addition to these horses, Surdak actually received seventy sets of Demonic Structures, some of which were taken from Grois. Commander MacDonnell took it from the Guards, and the other part was taken from the squadron leaders of the Heavy Cavalry Regiment.
After the surrender of the Light Cavalry Regiment in Bankstown, they received 2,000 horses and 2,000 sets of armor intact, but the Demon Pattern Construct was nothing.
In order to be able to complete this crusade plan, Commander Grova has actually turned the town of Banske into a material transfer site, so the various materials stored here are also extremely rich, which also saves Surdak a lot of trouble.
Even Louis. The quartermaster Fitch said that the battle of Kempera was the most lucrative he had ever seen, and that it was actually more profitable than the Marquis Luthor leading his army to capture the city of Ruyt.
Mainly when the Bena coalition captured Ruyt, the total number of troops exceeded 200,000, and once there were more people, the oil and water distributed to the various lords would be diluted a lot.
After another week of reorganization of the heavy infantry regiment, Surdak left the reserve of 7,000 heavy infantry regiments in the town of Bansk to guard the rear supplies.
The town of Bansk was temporarily managed by Edgar and Dennis, who were to be in charge of a reserve of 7,000 heavily armored infantry.
Surdak himself led the elite troops of 20,000 heavy infantry regiments towards the town of Takkale.
Archmage Morrison and Archswordsman of Quintas accompanied their respective teams.
……
A month and a half ago, the town of Takkale had been destroyed by the Resistance.
The town's docks served as a breakthrough for the Resistance, and the bearded Edgar, along with three other Resistance forces, carried out a ransack of the wealthy families, merchants, and nobles of Takkale, removing almost everything of value in the town, including some solid wood furniture.
When the lord army reoccupied the town of Takkale, these people ransacked the town again, and the whole town was left with only a few poor people who could not survive.
The nobles who fled would return to take over the land around the town, and some of the poor who could not survive would be taken back by the resistance, and many more would flee to other towns, leaving the town of Takkale in ruins.
By the time the army arrived in the town of Takkale, the ruins were covered with grass, and only the ruined bell tower in the town square was still standing in the wind.
But I don't know who moved the big bronze bell, and the bell tower was in tatters, except for a few wild children who were left unattended, there was only a skinny lame old dog.
Surdak was a little surprised that the old dog had survived.
After asking the children, I learned that the reason why this old dog survived was that he would go down to the river to fish, and the children provided at least half of their food every day.
Surdak stood in the abandoned courtyard that Evid Magician had bought, where the damage to the house was not too bad, but the doors and windows had been torn down, and it was estimated that someone had taken it to make a fire.
All the utensils in the house have been looted.
He walked out the door and looked back at the ruined manor before it occurred to him that this was really the most failed real estate investment of the Evid Wizard.
And the initiator of this is actually the resistance, if they hadn't attacked this town, then this town would at least have maintained its original dignity like Bansk Town, and the poor could continue to live under the oppression of the rich.
Of course, it's just living.
Surdak didn't get any supplies in Takkale Town, and the supplies needed for the 20,000 troops to come here could only be transported by Bansk, but the supplies in Bansk Town were only that, so he still chose to act with Aphrodite and transport them from Bena City.
There is a garrison camp between the towns of Hatangada and Takkale.
If Surdak wants to attack the town of Hatangada, he must capture this garrison camp.
According to the information brought back by the magician who went to the north to inquire about the information, the second legion of the Macdonnell lord's army has been assembled in the city of Mukuso and is preparing to go south.
There were also thousands of garrisons in this garrison camp, but it was a little strange that the dark magicians, hellhounds, and demon minions who had appeared in the army were never seen......
