Chapter 534

The surrender of the Bolo military area from the governor down to the whole city immediately ended the battle to pacify the Bolo region.

The accounts of this war are described in very simple terms in later historical sources, because there is really nothing to say. It is so simple that it seems to be described in such a sentence: Char came, Char saw it, and Char conquered.

Some people even described Char Thundering's pacification of the north as not like a war at all, but more like Char Thundering and his invincible cavalry on a tour of the north - just ran around like this, and the enemy surrendered one after another.

Although the Bolo area has been pacified, Char's "parade" has not really been completed.

He and his invincible cavalry spent only three days in the capital city of the Bolo Garrison. After some garrisons had been mobilized from Corsica by the troops who had caught up in the rear, Char handed over the task of continuing the surrender to these garrisons, and then set out on the road to continue his "grand procession".

Xia Yagan was very bold - firstly, because he only defeated the main force of the Bolo Army, and only the capital of the Bolo Army was really conquered, and there were at least tens of thousands of defenders left in other parts of the Bolo region. And Char left directly with the men and horses, and handed over the rest to the Northern Army Garrison Team that followed.

And the facts proved that his audacity was very justified - in the subsequent surrender of the entire Bolo military area, there was no resistance or resistance, and it went extremely smoothly.

After all, the three generations of governors of the Beinrich family, one is more "tough" than the other, and it is obvious that under the toss of the polo governor, the governor of the beast, and the governor of the naked run, their prestige has been pitiful. After the Governor's surrender, the people below were not much interested in dying for such a boss.

Char led his invincible cavalry battalion to his next target: the Newvica Garrison.

As the second closest neighbor to the east, the Nuvica military district is even weaker than the Bolo.

At the same time that Char launched an attack on the Bolo, Sogher, who was guarding Corsica, had already been ordered by Char to drive to the border line with a convoy of thousands of troops and make a gesture of attack on Nuvica.

It is worth mentioning that Sogel is indeed worthy of Char's subordinate, and what he did was almost the same as Char's!

The general first wrote a letter to the Nevika side, which read: "One of my caravans has disappeared on your territory, and you must have done it, so you must return our men, apologize, and pay financial compensation."

That's right, Thorgel directly changed the title of the letter Char had written to Governor Bolo and sent a copy directly to the people of Newvica.

He is very trouble-free, and the actions of the Nuvic people are more direct: blackmail me into asking me to give money? If you have money, you will give you the money, but you can't afford to lose that person!

It should also be mentioned that at this time, the governor of Newviphon had received a letter from the governor of Hubolo: everyone should work together to kill Char's northern army.

With allies, the confidence of the Nuvica people was a little stronger, and they marched out of the army, and then confronted each other on the border.

But just as they were about to start a fight with Sogher, the Nuvika received a second message.

The news is: the Bolos are finished.

Hurry! Hurry to make people feel overwhelmed!!

What puzzled the Governor of Newvica was that he had only received a letter from the Governor of Bolo a few days ago, and everyone had agreed to do it together.

Although the governor of Bolo likes to run naked, he still has 20,000 or 30,000 troops under his command after all, right?

The news shocked the Nuvica and made them afraid to play.

It took a few more days, and Char arrived.

Char took his cavalry to the place where the two armies confronted, and then sent someone to deliver a letter to the Nuvica army: the war letter.

The Governor of Newvica was in the barracks and took a general look at Char's cavalry on the battlefield.

Char's cavalry lineup is very majestic, imposing, and the cavalry is brave and fierce, and it is not good at first glance!

As a result, the governor of the Newvica military district came to a very wise decision: the opponent in front of him was absolutely impossible to defeat.

Obviously, the 20,000 or 30,000 troops on Bolo's side were cut off by Char with three or two strikes, and I am afraid that he is not an opponent.

Unable to beat it, the Nuvika decided to pinch their noses and beg for mercy.

The Governor of Nuvica wrote a letter to Char, saying: "Stop fighting, I'm succumbing, aren't you blackmailing me for money? Can't I give it?"

Shame on you, shame on you.

But Char's answer made the Nuvica people despair.

In the face of the last ransom letter, the feeling of the people of Nuvica was: the money is given, but they can't afford to lose this person.

And now they find that they are willing to lose this person, but they can't afford to pay for it.

Because Char announced that the price of the price had risen. "Eight hundred gold coins!"

It must be said that Char's hand is really a bit shameless.

Eight million gold coins! You must know that during the Taiping period of the Byzantine Empire, the annual financial revenue of the whole country was only 30 million gold coins.

A small area of Nuvica can only feed thousands of troops, where can we get 8 million gold coins? Even if we smash the pot and sell iron, we can't make it up!

What made the Governor of Newvica even more desperate was that he understood the meaning of Char's letter: I don't want your money, I want your territory!

The facts tell us that although the Bolo army is very soft, there is at least one eunuch general in the end. However, there are not even eunuchs in the Nuvica military area.

They surrendered outright.

In this way, the two military districts in the east were pacified, and Char spent a total of nineteen days from the dispatch of troops to the end.

Counting the time spent running back and forth on the road, Char really just took the soldiers and horses to play a tour in the east.

The east was handed over to Sogar to send troops to surrender and take over the territory, and Char turned his attention to the west.

The first opponent in the west: the Beckelp military area.

Well, I don't need to remember the name, because Char pacified the two opponents in the east in nineteen days, and when he ran back to the west, it was just in time for the surrender ceremony in the Beckelp military area.

In the space of nineteen days, the opponent has been killed by the brave General Green.

In fact, the Beckerp people are not weak, they are also very kind, very brave. In the face of the provocative enemy, they made a posture of stubborn confrontation.

Here's how the war went: Green came to the door with 5,000 men of the 1st Army of the Northern Army, and then wrote a letter to the Governor of the Beckerp Military Territory - don't ask the contents of the letter, because the Governor of Bolo and the Governor of Newwicka had already received the same content.

I have to say that Char's subordinates are really lazy, and the pre-war plans are the same

The Beckerp men immediately sent troops against each other, and the first collision between the two armies took place on the border.

Then ...... "Green is out of the army!"

Yes, you read that right, our mad dog, Lord Green, retired after only one fight!

He retreated to a small border town in his own territory, and then waited for a day, and the enraged Bekerp military district came to the door!

The logic of the Beckelp people is very simple: you come to beat me, but you can't run away, where is it so easy?

The roles of the attackers and defenders have reversed.

The thinking of the Beckerp people is very simple: Green seems to have such a little ability, and the small city where the Northern Army retreated, it seems that the city wall is not very high, the city is not very large, and the combat effectiveness of the Northern Army is not so strong, so simply attack the city and give them a ruthless teaching!

Maybe you can take the opportunity to take a few pieces of land!

It's a pity that the commander of Beckerp's army missed a very crucial problem: he didn't get to know Master Green's resume properly.

There is such a glorious record in the military resume of the crazy dog Green, many years ago, he served in the Eastern Army of the Imperial Kingdom, with two thousand local garrisons like the second-line troops of the Imperial Kingdom, in a small town, resisted the siege and attack of the army of the eastern alien tribes, and he resisted for a month!

At that time, the military's war report used such a sentence, which was: "The enemy has no inch"!

And how many enemies were attacking Grimm at that time? Some say 20,000, some say 50,000, and some say 100,000......"

Anyway, it was a lot, a lot, a lot of the troops under Green at that time.

However, Green completed the resistance brilliantly, relying on the 2,000 local garrison of very average quality, and held it for a full month. The enemy bit with his teeth, hit his head with his head, and none of them could break his defenses!

This example is enough to show that among General Green's military talents, at least in defensive warfare, he is extremely good.

If the commander of Beckerp's army knew about this, he would not have dared to take the army to attack the city guarded by Green! Because according to the previous example, if Green resisted more than ten times his enemy, he could defend it for at least a month under normal performance!

And now, instead of 2,000 miscellaneous troops, he has in his hands, but the elite First Corps of the Northern Army, and the strength of the troops has also changed from 2,000 to 5,000......!

So, the Beckerp people are tragic.

Beckerp's army besieged the city for ten days, and they fought very resolutely and bravely, but this inconspicuous small city in front of them just couldn't bite down.

Grimm's defense of the city, he made a very shameless move, and afterwards, when later scholars studied the war process of Char's thunder sweeping away the northern four armies, they all focused on the study of Green's war to pacify Beckelp, because he performed very well, which can be called a textbook example in the war!

It's not that Lord Char's performance is not outstanding, it's that he behaves too against the sky, against the sky to the point of violating the convention, everyone thinks that this guy is no longer a human at all, and his actions can't be copied, so there is no need to study.

Research Point 1: Grimm only brought 5,000 people with him.

You must know that when the military plan was drawn up before, Char asked Green to pull the First Corps of the Northern Army over, and the plan should be 15,000 to 20,000.

But Green only took 5,000 men with him, and what about the rest of the army?

Research point 2: Green is not a mediocre or a coward, why did he immediately lead his troops back to his own city after a battle, and let the other party come to the door?

Both of these questions can be answered by the people of Bekelp.

When the Beckerps crossed the border and besieged Grimm to the town, their commander was dismayed to find that there were many strange places under the town......

A group of trenches with a depth of 100 paces had already been dug under the city walls!

On the walls of the city were archers.

The Beckerp's army attacked for three days, and the men below were gone.

To attack the city, you must first fill in the ditch, and at the same time as filling the ditch, you must endure the "baptism" of the archers on the city wall.

Then there is only one answer: Grimm had already prepared himself in this place, dug a trench, prepared a defense, and then deliberately attracted the Beckelp people here.

And why attract the enemy to your own home to fight?

Green's answer is that in later military academies, the standard answer for instructors is: inside combat

There are many advantages to fighting on the inside: one's own territory, familiarity with the terrain, familiarity with the situation, and the opposite for the opponent. In addition, everyone knows that in a war, the soldiers and horses are not moved, and the grain and grass go first. When going out to fight other people's homes, the army must go out with food. Collecting food in your own home is in your own home, and the supply line is short, which is very cost-effective.

The Beckerps attacked for several days, lost a lot of troops, and finally came to the conclusion that they really could not fight, so they prepared to retreat.

At this time, Green finally delivered his fatal blow! This blow proved to the world that he was once praised by countless people as the most talented one among the eagle generals, and it was reasonable!

The Beckerp people crossed the border to kill people from their own homes, so they had to do one thing: transport food.

Logistical supplies were to be transported by convoy from the Beckerp military area to the small town of Siltan for the use of the army.

And as mentioned earlier, Green only brought 5,000 people here, what about the rest of the 1st Corps of the Northern Army?

The answer to the case is very simple: intercept the grain road and copy the back road!

To describe Green's combat strategy in eight words: lure the wolf into the house, close the door and beat the dog.

The three banner regiments of the Northern Army, which had been lurking in the shadows very early, calmly copied the back road of Bekelp's army, cut off their supply lines, blocked their food routes, and then gave Bekelp a stick from behind.

Immediately, Lord Green led his defenders out of the city to meet them.

The front and rear attacked, the Beckelp people were cut off from the supply line in someone else's house, and the army was in great confusion, and after being beaten hard by the stuffy sticks in the front and rear for a while, it quickly collapsed.

Green's big win!

It took Char nineteen days to pacify the two military districts to the east. Green's settlement of the Beckerp people also took nineteen days, which also included the completion of the surrender.

Char arrived to the west with the cavalry battalion just in time to sign the documents at the surrender ceremony with the Beckerps.

The Bekelp people are finished.

The last remaining opponent was the last military area on the Western Front: Nordin.

The Notting Garrison is the weakest of the four Garrisons around Char's territory.

And Char's pre-war plan, Shi Zhu, the weakest opponent, sent his strongest army, the Cavalry Regiment alone!

Char's cavalry corps, composed of the remnants of the former Rodria cavalry and the horse thief cavalry, was the elite of the vanguard of the Odin cavalry that completely annihilated the Odin cavalry in the Battle of Siltan.

The case says that against the weakest of the four opponents, but sending his strongest military team, while the other three opponents were all killed, this opponent should have been solved a long time ago.

And when Char finished the surrender ceremony of the Bekelp, he received the following news:

The Notting Army is in trouble.

His lone cavalry regiment, under the command of Sharpa, failed to deal with the weak Nordins!

The war is in a stalemate phase, and Sharpa really has nothing to do with his opponent.

This situation was not only Char's accident, but Green was also very puzzling when he got the news.

Soon, though, they knew the real reason.

Because when Char killed his neighbors one by one, one person couldn't sit still and finally made a move.

This man is El Salvador.

He was the former speaker of the Red Round Table and the supreme leader of the warlord party in the Tema military district of the Imperial State.

※※※

If you look at the map of the northern part of the Byzantine Empire, you will find a very interesting phenomenon.

To the southwest of Syltanshire, one of Char's domains, is bordered by the Notting Army.

And to the southwest of the Notting Military District, bordered by the name of the entire Imperial Country:

Rhodria region!

The most famous thing about this area is that hundreds of years ago, this area came out of a strong and invincible army, which is recognized as the strongest trump card army since the imperial state, and the most heroic and good military team - the thirteenth corps of the Fengyang army of the imperial state, also known as the "Rodria Cavalry Corps".

This area has always been known for its martial arts and fierce people.

And many people understand a truth, generally speaking, if we say that a place has strong people, then usually there is another meaning: this place is very poor, very poor!

Because they are poor, the people who live here are generally more fierce.

A hundred years ago, the Emperor of the Imperial Kingdom began to establish the Tema Military Territory system, and the Emperor of the Imperial Kingdom at that time divided the northern land of the Imperial Kingdom into a single Tema Military Region and appointed a group of generals in the army as governors to guard the local and northern frontiers for the Imperial Kingdom.

When it came to the Rhodria region, there was a very funny scene: all the generals, no one wanted to go to the Rhodria region to be the governor.

Because the place was so poor.

Soldiers are also human beings, and who doesn't like to be sent to a prosperous, lively, and rich place? Who wants to be sent to such a ghost place where birds don't lay eggs in the middle of nowhere?

But just when everyone was prevaricating, a very clever general took the initiative to apply and asked to be divided into the Randria region. This man's name is "Agg Hao...... , Carlin"—he was now the head of the Red Round Table Council, and Salvador's great-grandfather.

At the time, it seemed that everyone thought that this Argus was an unlucky ghost, and he helped everyone carry a black pot that no one wanted to carry.

But it was only later that everyone found out that they were all wrong!

Rodria is not a black pot, but a gold mine!

Because of the existence of this shrewd ancestor, the direct consequence was that the Tema military area gradually split with the imperial family of the imperial kingdom and formed the Red Round Table as a group of warlords, and for a hundred years the Rodria region has been recognized as the strongest military district in the entire military party.

Mind you, it's the strongest!

That Argus was the first governor, and he was shrewd, and he chose a place where he could produce strong generals* because he was a believer in the supremacy of force. He believed that as long as he had a strong force in his hands, he could stand his ground in any bad situation.

But, to be fair, during his years as governor, he failed to solve one problem: financial resources.

The Rhodria region is too poor. Even if he was able to recruit a strong and warlike army, he did not have the financial resources to maintain a large army.

And it was his son who solved this problem.

Second Governor of the Rhoderia Military District.

Many Tema military districts in the Imperial Kingdom have their own advantages and resources.

For example, the Armenian military region, which has the best iron ore in the imperial kingdom, is famous for producing armor and weapons, and is also their largest source of finance.

For example, the Corsican military district, which used to be a grain-producing area, produced grain and sold it in exchange for financial revenue.

Well, what about the Rhodria region?

After thinking about it for a long time, the governor finally found his true strength:

Person!

You produce resources, I produce warriors!

Thus, the Rhodelia region ushered in glory, and their way to riches is: to be a beater!

The official scientific name is called: Hire a mercenary!

※※※

Do you have an enemy who hates the bones of the enemy, but you have no shame in tossing and turning?

Do you have a life-and-death enemy that you have never dealt with in your life, but you are too weak to resist?

Governor Rhodría will be generous enough to solve these problems for you, provided that you pay the gold.

Even within the Tema Army, there were contradictions between the Governor and the Governor, and there would be friction and even war between them—especially after the Tema Military Region had reached its peak and the imperial power was in decline, leaving these warlords unchecked.

At this time, the Rhodryans found their way to riches.

They are the most powerful warlord army in the Emperor's Eye, with the most experience in combat, and you can see the figure of the mercenaries hired by Rhodría in various battlefields.

The ultimate fate of the vast majority of men born in the Rhodria region is one: to pick up weapons and go to the battlefield.

The Rhodría region is very poor, and they do not produce food because the land is poor. They don't have mines, they don't produce minerals, they are geographically remote, and they are not a prosperous trade route.

People in the Rhoderia region, every boy is told from an early age after birth: if you want to get ahead, you must fight with your own hands!

The rite of passage for every boy in the Rhodría region is a sword and a shield.

They know from an early age that if they want to get ahead, they have to work hard to get trained and become qualified fighters.

They know from an early age that they have no other way out than this one.

They will eventually go to the battlefield, pick up their weapons, and fight to the death against enemies they are completely unfamiliar with and have no grudges. Because they understand that this is the only way to get ahead.

And all kinds of records of the life of the people in the Rhodria region will make people feel a chill from the heart when they read it!

You know, if it is in other places, when the husband or son of the family enlists in the army, the family often sheds tears and says goodbye, and then the parents or wives will tell the soldiers with tears in their eyes, the scene is warm, or touching, or even a little sad.

But in the Rhodria region, no!!

If the male of the family becomes a soldier and goes out to fight, then the whole family will celebrate like a festival, greet relatives and friends to eat and drink, and then send their son or husband to pick up the weapon and go out to kill the enemy.

In other places, friends gather, men and men brag about each other, or they will say, "How much money do I have," and how many wives I have," and then the one with the richest or the most women gets the envy of all.

But in the Raudria region, when men drink, they often boast about how many people I have killed, "how many heads I have chopped", "what battles have I fought", and "finally, everyone has drunk too much, and they take off their clothes to count the scars on their bodies, and whoever has the most scars, the most terrible, and the worst will become the object of admiration and envy of everyone."

Every year, the Governor of Rhoderia would receive a lot of money and send a fierce and warlike army of Rhoderia to help countless customers kill people and set fires.

With an elite and warlike army, there is an abundant source of financial resources.

The Rhodella military area has become the strongest of all the warlord parties, which is logical.

And Char swept away the four opponents around him one by one, and when he hit the Notting Army area, one of them couldn't sit still.

The current Governor of the Military Territory of Rodria, El Salvador.

The leader of this treacherous and cunning Red Round Table meeting immediately realized a danger!

Char must not be allowed to sweep away the West so easily! Because he saw Char's potential threat clearly! Once Char's power continues to expand, no one in the entire north, or even the entire Imperial Kingdom, will be able to subdue him!

Char's territory borders the Nottings, while the Notting Army borders Rodria.

If Char really kills Notting, he will border the Rhodria Military Area! At that time, he will have to directly face Char's strong enemy!

Therefore...... "The Notting military area cannot be destroyed, and he can at least be used as a barrier for himself."

So, the Rhodelia military area, sent troops!
