1442 The Collapsed Alliance (VIII)
In September, torrential rains hit the northwest of Obarro, and for the dozen or so Northwest territories of the Anti-Julils Alliance, the mood was like a rainstorm in front of them, and it was definitely a month that made people feel crazy, with ups and downs, from heaven to hell!
First of all, the army of Fort Julils was pressing, and the coalition forces relied on Fort Branden to oppose it, and they had some upper hand, just when everyone thought that the Julils family was nothing more than that, the city of Atwood Sea, located in the rear, suddenly withdrew, and the two regions of O'acha and Nesta fell in just a few days, and the enemy's front was directly embedded into the hinterland of the alliance area, and the original advantage was gone, but it caused a voice of controversy within the alliance, feeling that the future was hopeless, and panic could not end, and the sudden intervention of Algernon Katya, the commander of the southwest, immediately changed the situation again,
In the face of the strength of the Algernon family, even Julilsford, the butcher of the northwest, could only use serious illness as an excuse to avoid facing it head-on, which proved more and more that the Julils family was already in the wane, and there were not many days left, and the leaders of the coalition forces celebrated with crowns and held banquets to celebrate, and the melodious tune of the banquet had not yet dispersed, and all kinds of terrible news suddenly poured in like a landslide and tsunami
On September 27, the four districts of Southend, Fort Sven, Bangor, and Tarbert were almost in no particular order, and at the same time a large number of cavalry of unknown origin were discovered, and the opponent's longbow and fast horses came and went like the wind, and in just half a day, like a storm, disturbed the borders of the four regions, causing more than 2,000 casualties among the garrisons in the four regions, and the refugees from hundreds of villages were driven out.
On September 28th, these mysterious cavalrymen, who had no clear intention and were quite good at assault, reappeared on the border, this time not to attack, but to attack, a real attack! The enemy had routed the main force of the border guards in the Bangor area in one day, and the Alasko infantry garrison, numbering 3,000 men, was completely slaughtered in front of the rapid cavalry group. More than 1,700 people were killed in battle, and one general was captured,
At the same time, the same was true of Fort Sven and Southend, which were connected to O'acha, and these large numbers of mysterious cavalry attacking from the direction of O'acha put on a posture of all-out assault, and the defenders scattered countless times along the way.
The lost area expanded like a plague, and the border line with a total length of more than one hundred and forty miles was completely occupied by the enemy on the third day.
Because the main forces are in the direction of Brandenburg, the total garrison strength in these areas does not exceed 20,000 people, in front of these rapid and abnormal assault cavalry, the thin garrison force even seems a little difficult to protect itself, let alone take the initiative to counterattack, "Bastard, it must be the barbarian consul on the northwest coast!"
The opposition has been raging in Brandenburg, threatening to accuse this barbarian who has utter no regard for imperial authority. They are now in the southwestern region, and this kind of move by the other side is completely provoking a civil war! Algernon Katya, the commander-in-chief of the southwest, who is still stranded on the side of the opposition, is also a little angry. He sent an officer to rebuke the other side for his provocation, and in his capacity as the commander-in-chief of the southwest, he demanded that the other side withdraw from the occupied O'acha area, "Lao Tzu is in the northwest area, and he wants to negotiate." Please find the person in charge of the Northwest Region! As for the bullshit Southwest Commander, Lao Tzu has never heard of it at all!" The other party's attitude is extremely bad and arrogant. Not only did he not admit it, but he also beat the officer he sent to him fatly, "It's too arrogant!"
The Southwest Commander Algernonkaja stomped his feet angrily, but the Imperial War was imminent, although there were more than 100,000 Imperial regular troops under his command, but they could not be mobilized again, there was no way, Algernonkatya could only send someone to negotiate with Julil Fort Forts in the Northwest Region in the name of the Southwest Commander-in-Chief, but he was once again blocked back without facelessness "My father is seriously ill and has fallen into a coma, and the content of your negotiations naturally cannot be answered! So, please go back" It is absolutely impossible to say such words from the mouth of a barbaric woman, but the negotiators feel that what the other party said is too scolding style, and it is simply bloody and impossible to paraphrase, if you say it truthfully, I am afraid that the other party has nothing to do, and the angry consul general will chop himself first, and as a last resort, I can only reply with this statement,
This came and went for a few days, and on the sixth day, an urgent military report came from Fort Hanla, the capital of the Bangor region, this time, the cavalry of the other side was no longer swaying on the border, but unceremoniously looted more than 20 towns outside the capital of Bangor, and burned all these towns with a fire before leaving, outside Fort Hanla, the capital of Bangor, more than 100,000 refugees have begun to besiege the city, and the black pressure is overwhelming, almost making the plain outside the capital a sea of people
It is already late autumn, and a large amount of grain and financial taxes that have just been collected have not had time to be transported to the capital, but they have been looted by the other party on the road, losing nearly 500,000 taxes and tens of thousands of tons of food ready for winter, as well as countless treasures, and suddenly there are more than 100,000 mouths waiting to eat outside the capital, Duke Francis of Bangor has even wanted to hit the wall headlong,
He cried and shouted to his mother and ran to find Algernonkatya, the commander of the southwest, who was still stranded in the opposition, and asked the commander-in-chief to immediately send troops to severely punish this arrogant and domineering northwestern barbarian, but the news he got was that "the commander of the southwest, Algernonkatya, is unwell and has no outsiders!" In fact, Algernon Katya is also very clear that this matter, he is in the name of a name, if the other party ignores him, he will have no way in a short time, the other party obviously grasps his weakness, that is, the imperial war is imminent, no matter what, the army in the southwest will not be able to move a single step. "Bastard, this is irresponsible deception, deception. You ......" Duke Francis, who was overly excited, turned white in anger on the spot, foaming at the mouth and fainted,
The tragic situation of Bangor frightened the borderline Southend, Svenburg, and Tarbert, in the central region, Bangor, known as the commercial capital, is not worse than these three regions, but the other party is like playing, and Bangor will be in trouble to the bottom, although there is still the capital, but it is really worse than death, and then two months will be the harsh winter season of the Nordic Barrow, think about the hundreds of thousands of homeless people wandering outside the capital of Bangor, everyone can't help but shudder,
The homeless people who have no food and winter supplies will soon become a mob, and everyone has already looked at the old Duke Francis who passed out with pitiful eyes, in fact, fainting to death is also a good choice, it is better than being sober,
More than 100,000 mobs, Bangor is finished!
Even if it can be pacified, then I don't know if it's the year of the monkey, it's a very troublesome thing to pacify the mob, that's not a few hundred, a few thousand, it's hundreds of thousands, if you want to pacify, you need to gather at least tens of thousands of troops, brave and warlike generals, a large number of supplies, rich soldier rewards, and years of continuous cleaning up of the remnants, and the biggest trouble is that the mob has no discipline and guidelines at all,
Before all of the above qiē is ready, the mob of hundreds of thousands is like a hungry locust, eating up, burning, and robbing everything that passes, and more refugees join in, so that it is like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger.
After Bangor, it will be Southend, Svenborg, Tarbert......
The minds of the regions that felt the crisis in the backyard could not sit still, in their minds, the source of the turmoil had begun to burn, and this fire would soon spread to the entire central part of the country, but the initiator of the turmoil, the barbarian from the northwest, could sit on the mountain and watch without loss, "That guy will definitely continue to expand the turmoil!"
The leaders of the opposition who were in a panic held a meeting, combined their respective reports, and came to the conclusion that this guy was simply terrible! Judging from the intelligence analysis of the attacks in various places, the number of cavalry assembled by the other side was at least more than 20,000, otherwise it would never have been possible to put up such a large battle, this is 20,000 cavalry! The leaders of the regions felt a cold sweat on their backs.
Especially the faces of the heads of the three regions, such as Sende, Svenburg, and Tarbert, which are close to O'acha, are as ugly as their fathers who have just died.
With such a number of cavalry, the opponent completely divided the road from the O'acha area, continuously attacked the border line connecting the area, and finally looked for the weakness that was enough to make the opponent fatal, and the blow was fatal, it was simply an unscrupulous bandit, after smashing the gate, he wantonly looted, and before leaving, he did not forget to set a fire to make the master's house into a pot of porridge, it was not just a robbery, this was simply a human life! "What should I do?"
The opposition looked at each other, and the only way now was to take advantage of the fact that before the turmoil had completely spread, they would immediately return with the army, but the hundreds of thousands of Julils family troops in front of Brandenburg would obviously not let them go so easily At this moment, a man named Duoxue, who claimed to be the envoy of the northwest coast, came to Brandenburg, and a letter of armistice negotiations was handed to the opposition
The conditions for the armistice were simple,
First, the opposition region must issue a statement that its area belongs to the northwest region, which is only a matter of hesitation for the opposition, and the expression of the southwestern commander-in-chief, Algernon Katya, has already made the opposition feel that there is no place to rely on, and the name cannot be used as food, let alone resist the troops of the northwest barbarians, compared with which the 20,000 cavalry of the northwest barbarians have reached their rear waist, which is more important than the other, there is simply no comparison
Second, with Bramberg as the line, the north and the south were divided, and Brandenburg was owned by the north, and the opposition had already regarded Brandenburg as a chicken rib, although reluctantly, in the end agreed
Thirdly, as a sign of good faith in the armistice between the two sides, the Julills family voluntarily renounced their nominal rights to the land south of Brandenburg.
But as compensation, the anti-Julils coalition must hand over the two districts of Barton Tower and Brace in the critical northern region to the northern district as compensation.
For this article, the opposition fried the pot on the spot,
The area of Barton Tower and Bresse is a narrow strip of land more than 800 miles long that straddles the two regions between Nesta and O'acha.
It is clear that if the Northwest Barbarians own these two areas, they will be able to connect Normandy and Nesta with the region of O'Acha.
But the question is, both regions are members of the anti-Julils coalition, and what is the difference between sincerity and handing these two regions over to the enemy......?
