Hearing Joan of Arc's words, Egil was a little disappointed, and held Joan of Arc's hand a little harder: "Originally...... That's true. I do want to groom you as another commander of the Empire. It's like Artoria. But, but your body ......"

"Even if you go to the battlefield to fight, can't you just rely on your command ability to represent a good army? Just like you. ”

Hearing Joan of Arc say this, Egil blushed slightly. After all, personal heroism was in vogue in the Middle Ages. There are not many emperors who dare not fight in person.

"But even so. Marching journeys, long journeys...... The weather is bad everywhere, and it can't be compared to the palace. Egil advised, "It's not good for your health." ”

“...... Well. "Although he is still very unwilling. But Egil's argument is also quite plausible. Joan of Arc nodded reluctantly.

"Since Mary I took it. Then send a few more maids to your help. Egir said this, and then after a little delay, he found a few maids who were usually honest and dutiful to Joan of Arc. Seeing that it was not too early, I had a light meal with Joan of Arc, Maria and Sonya. It was not until the afternoon that he chased after him with the knightly guards.

"So, will I have to follow my master in the future?" asked Maria, a little nun who was carrying and riding a war horse with Egil, because she couldn't ride a horse.

"Of course. Egil held Maria's chest in one hand and the reins in the other, and the horse continued to speed up, showing that the recently redeemed advanced equestrian skills did have something extraordinary.

"Hooray!!" exclaimed Mary.

"Be careful not to fall. Egil felt a jolt in his arms, and he pressed a little harder on his left hand to hold Maria, and then reminded him.

"Well!" replied the little nun Mary.

In fact, when it comes to loving Egil, I also like to have a little girl like this to stay with him. It has nothing to do with the so-called work. You see this guy is so easy to bully, and he won't hold grudges because of IQ problems after bullying. And it's cute like a pet. The most important thing is that the body is soft and very comfortable - that's not to say that Sonia is bad. In fact, Sonya, who was born as a killer, has a very flexible body, can make many difficult movements, and has a very strong ability to control all parts of her body, which can often give Egil extraordinary stimulation.

However, there is a problem, in this case, Sonia is in control of the situation. It made Egil feel a little distressed. In addition, Sonya's figure, well, how to say, is very thin and toned because of the good workout. Although it looks much more beautiful than Mary. But the feel is actually not very good. It's not as soft as Maria, a lazy guy who is soft and fleshy, weak and boneless.

Other than that, the boobs are too small.

Thinking of this, Egil chuckled, feeling that he seemed to be a little greedy. There are so many good things in this world. Now that there are two girls with a text and a martial arts by his side, he should be content. Looking at Sonia beside her a little sullen, you can see that she was a little snubbed before. Then he turned and said loudly, "Sonia, let's race the horses—from here we will meet the army guards." How?"

After finishing speaking, Egil didn't wait for Sonia to agree, and whipped the horse's buttocks, and the speed of the horse's pain suddenly increased a lot. Rushed out from the front of the array.

"Master—you're foul!" Sonia shouted, and then with a whip of her whip, she rushed out after Egil. The knights of the guards, fearing that something would happen to the lord, also ran over at once—at this moment the knights were lightly armoured, and all the heavy plates on their bodies and their horses were unloaded and loaded on the baggage soldiers behind the army. Therefore, the horse speed is still good. It's just that this group of guys didn't dare to disturb their own lord and their own lord's lover. Therefore, they are very careful to follow not far behind, but they dare not go beyond the past......

In this way, it took a little time for Egil to catch up with the main force that was walking in front, and it was not early, it didn't matter if the game was won or lost, everyone was already very tired. Just set up camp, eat and rest. After this, Egil put Maria to sleep, and then looked at the map by the light of the fire. Sonya, on the other hand, was not far away, leaning against the pillar, holding a short sword and looking at Egil, slightly distracted. ...,

"I'm a little worried. Egil sighed,

Although the Norman army marched quickly, coupled with the ease of inland waterway transportation and baggage, as well as the recently built road network, and the excellent physical strength of the Norman soldiers. This made the soldiers travel at a speed of fifty miles a day. Such a very staggering number.

But the distance is too far.

The distance from the Grand Duchy of Moscow is simply too far. From Krakow, via Minsk, Smolensk, to the Grand Duchy of Moscow, the distance added up to more than 1,200 kilometers. That is, two thousand four hundred miles, large

In order to conserve physical strength, it is impossible for the army to march for such a long time as fifty miles every day. That is, to get to the Grand Duchy of Moscow, it will take at least two months. If you take into account the weather conditions, I'm afraid it's even worse. end

It's still January, and the weather in the subarctic zone of Eastern Europe can be said to be frozen......

Thinking of this, Egil couldn't help but sigh, thinking in his heart: "Should the other party not wait to save himself?"

Help, just destroy it yourself. Although it is said that the siege warfare of the Middle Ages lasted three and five years, it was normal. But the other side has an epoch-making weapon like black powder. Moscow though is the capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. But

The spies said that it was nothing more than a stone wall five meters high and three meters thick. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it up for a week if I put it in my hands......"

At the same time, Egil was rushing with a large army

Moscow. And Artoria complained in the army that he couldn't go along, so he found a place to vent his emotions with the horse bandits. Moscow, a calamitized Moscow, a siege battle has just ended. On the city walls, once again hit

The Muscovite soldiers and civilians, who had retreated from the Cuman attack, cheered. Excited to win once again and to have a chance to survive. Of course, the cheers quickly stopped. Veteran Semenovsky gave the order, let

The soldiers took advantage of the siege to eat well and rest. The logistics troops, formed spontaneously by the citizens, immediately ran up the city wall with baskets of hard black bread and clear water.

"Two people for one, not too much! Don't rob either! I know you're hungry, but there's only so much food. If you don't eat it, you won't be able to hold on. The aristocratic officer in charge of the distribution of food shouted as he took the two pieces of black bread the size of a child's palm.

It's really hard to eat. The taste is slightly bitter, and because of the weather and the selection of materials, it is as hard as a brick. It's enough to even use it as a weapon. Rye flour is not handled carefully, bread

There are quite a few wheat husks mixed in it. And in order to increase production, supply the whole army. So this kind of black bread is also mixed with a lot of wood chips. In short, it is a miracle that the Slavs who do not die after eating such things are really a miracle.

However, even such a thing could not be supplied openly—the soldiers fought all day, and all they got was four pieces of black bread the size of a child's palm. Two pieces in the morning. Two pieces at night - that's it, it has to be done on the front line

Only soldiers of the war army are treated. And the soldiers in the rear ate only half of this amount. One in the morning and one in the evening. As for the other old and weak women and children, those who join the logistics unit can still eat together. Otherwise, it can only be

Wait for death - in fact, the second week after the siege of Moscow by the Cuman army, Moscow has already starved to death. If it continues, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The whole city has been shrouded in ominous clouds......

"Hongu ...... Maybe it's wrong. ”

In the gloomy and cold palace, Catherine II couldn't help but sigh with emotion when she heard the report of Semenovsky, who was not optimistic. In fact, before that, Semenovsky, with his current deputy

Hand, the commander of the Moscow city defense, the old general Kutuzov, once drew up a plan, that is, to clear the walls and burn the whole of Moscow with a fire. The army marched north into Novgorod, or westward into Smo

Lesk. In this way, scorched earth warfare was fought against the invasion of the nomadic Cumans.

However, such a costly plan was ultimately rejected by Catherine II.

"All the belongings that this palace has accumulated for half a lifetime are here! If you want to go, you go! This palace will die here even if it dies!!"

After proposing this plan at that time, Semenovsky was sprayed in the face by the Grand Duchess. Indeed, as Catherine II said. Today the Grand Duchy of Moscow has the vast majority of goods and money

It's all in Moscow - and that's not all, of course. The most important thing is that Catherine II was deeply afraid that after the loss of Moscow, her authority and power would be devastated

Hit.

In this way, her terrible neighbors in the West, the Normans, who had always crushed the Grand Duchy of Moscow, would take advantage of the situation and usurp her territory, which Egil had claimed

The Russar, so from a legal point of view, Moscow, Novgorod and other places should also be counted as his legal fiefdoms...... It's one thing to nominally subordinate a country, but to let that country intervene in its own country

government, or even usurping the supreme power, that's another matter......
