Chapter 17: A Hundred Years of Strategy (Part II)
His Majesty thought of it, and the Redstone Emperor reacted very quickly, and immediately summoned the two young Phantom Beast Knights: "You go to the north bank of the Lion River at night, get in touch with General Chi Hantong, and inform him of what happened to Dìdū, and be careful of the grain transportation line." "Chi Hantong has experienced more wars than Chi Hanfeng, and it is enough to say this. The two teenagers pulled up the phantom beast and flew away.
"Your Majesty, I have in mind a place that should be the safest city right now. Luo Hui put forward his opinion.
"Hehe, the second chief thinks about the same thing as I think. There was a hint of joy in the walnut lines on the minister's face.
"Well, we're just going to go there. "The Redstone Emperor's reaction is definitely no worse than that of any soldier, even if it is a little late, all that is lacking is a hint from others.
Hamburg City, which had just been recaptured by a small mercenary group for less than a month, became the first choice for the imperial monarchs to take refuge. Needless to say, there are five distinct advantages to choosing Hamburg:
1. The loyalty of the small mercenary group is extremely reliable, which does not need to be discussed from the relationship between the Chi family and the royal family. The small mercenary group and the Fanos legion fought three bloody battles, each time there were at least about 10,000 casualties on both sides, the death rate of the small mercenary group exceeded 40%, and the orc warriors who fell under the sword of the small mercenary group also reached more than 20,000. Blood feud! Even if everyone in the entire Eminole Continent surrenders to the Phanos Legion, even the small mercenary group will not compromise.
2. Hamburg City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, although Hamburg City has been conquered twice in a row in the past two months, but it is also the only two times in hundreds of years. There is no reason to convince others that the city will be breached for a third time.
3. From Dìdū to Hamburg City, all the way to the mountainous woodland, the knight army cannot be deployed at all, even if the other party is a dragon knight, in such a forest area, the performance will not be much better than the phantom beast knight, a dozen discounts, the fugitive even has a local advantage.
4. The strength of the small mercenary group is amazing, and the latest battle report has shown that in this talented mercenary group, in addition to young brave men like Amy, Da Qingshan, Chi Aotian, and Horns, there are now dozens of high-level magicians above the level of a great magician and thousands of jīng spirit archers. With such strength, it can already crisscross the continent. Defending a city is somewhat overkill. Now that I think about it, the effect of this chess piece casually laid by General Chi Hanfeng is simply too great.
5. Hamburg City and Viscount Fan's legions echo each other, if Viscount Fan is still loyal to the empire, the two armies are each other's internal surface, and can have partial initiative; if Viscount Fan has been bought by the Western Emperor, it will not pose a particularly big threat to Hamburg City. Moreover, Viscount Fan also has the infantry brigade of the Colorful Dragon Knights, the most loyal and loyal in the empire, even if Viscount Fan wants to make a move, he is afraid that it will not count.
Compared with the high-ranking officers of the Emperor's ** Department, there is another reason why the Redstone Emperor chose this city, but it is not convenient to say it now.
On the last day of January in the 5th year of the Magic Calendar, Scambrae, the capital of the Amy Empire, which spanned the two continents of Eminole and the Ice, fell for the first time, and the Redstone Emperor was forced to take refuge in the steel capital of Hamburg.
The most important ministers of the empire who traveled with the Redstone Emperor were as follows:
Imperial First Minister:
Marquis Nilo von Hodahua, Minister of Ministers
Count von Murat of the Ministry of Works
The Minister of Commerce and the Earl of the Mountains
Duke Ben Reis, Minister of Foreign Affairs
Imperial Ministers of the Second Rank:
Viscount Ming Yang, the executive deputy secretary of the Ministry of Officials
Duchess Imera von Min, Vice-Minister of the Frozen Continent of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Baron Luo Hui, Deputy Minister of Logistics of the Ministry of War
Count Yu Yang Lin, Deputy Governor of the Standing Province of the Military Department
Imperial Ministers III:
The Senior Counsellor of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China, Marquis Merlincar, a total of 43 people.
At this time, the first and second level military chiefs in charge of the major military regions outside the empire were as follows:
Marshal Datong (Duke) of the Emperor's ** Ministry Shangshu Chi
Governor (General) of the Northern Federal Theater of Empire, Prince Tiedu (younger brother of the Redstone Emperor)
Marquis Chi Hantong, general of the Imperial Lion River Theater of Operations
Imperial Holy Snow Mountain (Tongyun Pass) Theater General Chi Changyun Young Marquis
Viscount Fan, General of the Western Theater of Operations of the Empire
Marquis Nord von Saddam, General of the Imperial Boundary Forest Theater
At that time, the imperial theater of operations that had been thrown into the remnants of the Burmese Yang Empire was as follows:
Imperial Boundary River Theater;
Imperial Ice Harbor War Zone.
And the biggest blow to the Redstone Emperor was that the Imperial Vice Minister, who ranked first in the Imperial Ministers' Sequence, completely fell to the other side, and along with the Vice Minister, there were also three first-level ministers, nine second-level ministers, and more than thirty third-level ministers of the Empire.
The Red Stone Emperor's departure from Scambrai was a watershed, from this day on, for various reasons, the Amy Empire, the Theseus Empire, the Holy See, the Mercenary Empire, the nobles of the four kingdoms began to expand their forces in an all-round way, and the Holy See in order to win over these nobles, did not hesitate to reward the original arch and treasure of the throne, at most once His Majesty the Pope canonized the title of 126 kings, and some people called this period of history: "King of kings".
