Chapter 287 [Bad News]

The Odin people had already crossed the river and had no intention of retreating. But at this time, the upper class of the Chixue Army, Manninger and others were completely in chaos.

The eldest son of the Governor of Corsica came to the negotiations? He was killed by his subordinates halfway through money and was killed?!

Upon hearing this news, Manninger's first reaction was to believe it!

He knew the tempers of the boys under his command. Although the other party was the eldest son of the Governor of Corsica, his soldiers had gone too smoothly since they headed south and felt that these Byzantine sheep were too easy to bully and could fight them no matter how they were.

What is the son of the Governor of Corsica? In the eyes of most Odins, they are just a sheep. If you kill, you will be killed, what's the point of making a fuss?

Besides, the Odins have always been fierce and savage, so it is not uncommon to do such things.

However, as the news was sent, Manninger realized something was wrong.

First of all, there were more than one hundred Odin soldiers' bodies at the scene where they were discovered! Later, after investigation, these more than one hundred Odin soldiers escorted and supervised the peace talks team along the way.

Even if there were any conflicts and conflicts, the two sides fought and killed... all these more than 100 Odin soldiers were killed? They didn't even leave a single living mouth?! This is extremely abnormal!

Furthermore, Manninger finally got the news that the number of people in the peace talks was less than 200!! A team of only 200 people actually wiped out more than 100 Odin soldiers? And all of them were quickly, and no one of them was left behind?

Why are these warriors of my own not so pussy?

If the other person is killed by his own person, there is still a possibility.

The most important thing is that all the corpses found at the scene were killed, while the corpses of Corsica were only just over a dozen... (It’s not that Charia didn’t want to bring them too much, but she really couldn’t fit them in the car).

The proportion of casualties reached 10 to 1! Is the Corsica army so powerful? Even if these are the elites in the Governor's Mansion, it wouldn't be like this, right?

Manninger's first reaction was: fake!

But the problem is that news came from Corsica soon, and this matter was actually true!

The son of the Governor of Corsica was really dead! And where is the body, it is proof of its strength! Corsica also confirmed that it was indeed sent to the Governor's eldest son to negotiate in person.

Could it be that the Governor of Corsica deliberately wanted to find an excuse to start a war?

But then, what are the benefits of going to war for the Corsicans?

Secondly...even if you make excuses, you don’t have to pay your own son’s life, right?!

This matter is too strange. The key is that no one is left behind.

The Corsica army had quickly assembled, and a flag regiment cavalry had rushed to the banks of the Roros River to start the war, and then three flag regiments also rushed to the scene. I heard that the Corsica Military Region had mobilized the entire district, and the reserve soldiers also began to gather...

Although Manninger had no idea how such an accident would have happened - he had never wanted to go to war with the Corsicans!

Manninger was not a person without a big picture. The Odin invasion was so smooth because these Byzantine rebels caused civil strife and the Byzantines themselves fought endlessly.

Now one side is an alliance with these Byzantine rebels, but once this alliance breaks up, it will never be beneficial to the Odins.

He is different from those hot-headed guys under him.

Although Manninger also looked down on the Byzantine army, he also saw his weakness: After all, there were too few Odin people! Now he occupied nearly two counties. In such a large place, his own legion was spread out. It would take time to eat and digest such a large place!

According to Manninger's mind, he first occupied the territory of these two counties, and then spent more than a year to digest, stood firm, and then made more. Although he was successful in the early stage, he was the enemy army in the enemy country after all...

Even if you want to turn against these Byzantine warlords, it is not a good time! You have to wait until you gain a foothold to digest the territory, and even migrate some tribal populations from the country, and really control these territory.

Secondly, we have to wait for these rebels to kill the Byzantine royal family! In that case, the Byzantine Empire will be in a desperate situation and will no longer pose a threat to Odin.

Don’t look at the members of the Byzantine rebels now, the members of the Red Round Table are still very united. This is just a moment! Once the Byzantine royal family is destroyed, these people will soon start fighting themselves!

That time was the time for the Odin Empire to truly annex Byzantium!

Therefore, being bound by these concerns, in the first few days, Manninger ordered that the Odin army who had crossed the river were not allowed to move forward, and that the Corsica army would confront each other on the spot and would not move forward.

Then Manninger immediately sent a messenger to the Governor General of Corsica, but who knew that the boss of Corsica was so sad that he didn't even see the messenger's face, so he directly sent someone to cut the messenger into meat paste!

When the news came back, the senior leaders of the Chixue Army were shocked and furious.

But at this time, Manninger still refused to order the war, and it was better to restrain the troops on the front line to garrison on the spot.

But he wanted to find another way, but the Corsicans had already taken the initiative.

The three flag regiments of Corsica finally met on the Roro, gathered an army of more than 10,000 people, and began a fierce counterattack!

The Odin people crossed the river were only more than two thousand. With the superior forces of the Corsicans, they finally couldn't resist it. In a fierce battle, the Corsicans and the Odin people each died and injured more than a thousand, and the Odin people had to retreat across the river.

However, the Corsicans were not satisfied. The army immediately crossed the Roro River and seized the four strongholds of the Odins on the riverside in one breath. Then two Corsican flag regiments were finally arrived.

A complete regiment was placed on the side of the Rollo River and made an stance to march into Siltan.

Manninger finally couldn't help it!

Even if he wanted to take the overall situation into consideration, at this time, the aggressive attitude of the Corsicans also made Manninger very angry!

In Manninger's opinion, the Corsica army is nothing! The 7th Corps' central standing army was destroyed by itself! The Corsica army of a coroner, who had been tolerant of it, chased and fought across the river?!

Since the other party refuses to be peaceful, then the Axe and Blade of the Odin Warriors are never afraid of powerful enemies!

Once the order to fight back with all strength was issued, the Odins quickly mobilized thousands of troops from several important towns in Siltan and rushed fiercely towards the Roro River.

Within ten days, the two sides fought fiercely, with each killing and injured. A reserve regiment of 30,000 troops had already gathered in Corsica and rushed to the front line.

Manninger was not outdone and ordered the dispatch of Odin troops from all over the occupied areas, gathered 15,000 Odin soldiers from three flags, plus 3,000 reindeer cavalry, and also met...

Kick!

Xia Ya chewed an apple in her hand hard, sat on the city wall, looking into the south direction.

He had already brought his men back to Mesta City. This time he took two hundred horse thieves to disguise himself. When he went there, he had only injured less than forty people when he came back. However, the results were extremely brilliant.

The only regret is that the corpses of the brothers who died in battle were burned on the spot and could not leave any traces... However, these horse thieves do not pay attention to such details.

At this moment, on Mesta's city tower, Xia Ya looked at the south for a while and murmured to herself: "Fight, fight, fight, the more intense you fight, the happier I will be."

At this time, only three steps behind him, a young man with dark skin and pretty appearance stood there with a large bow on his back and a patterned armor of the Byzantine army. His originally green and tender face also looked a little calm.

This young man is Acai, a native of Zaku. He has experienced several battles with Xia Ya. Although the scale is not large, he has received a lot of hardships. At this moment, he no longer looks like a little hunter in that tribe.

Standing behind Xia Ya, hearing Xia Ya's words, A Cai whispered: "Sir, will they fight?"

When Xia Ya heard this, she laughed and threw the apple core in her hand down the city. She looked back at Acai: "That's for sure! Humph, the old governor of Corsica died and his own son would be tolerated. If he could bear it, I would really be convinced! Even if he wanted to take the overall situation into consideration, if he didn't even make a fart in this kind of thing, hum, if his son died, he would still be a turtle. Can he still look up in the future? You don't understand... Moreover, once the battle starts, once the large-scale battle of the large corps is opened, it will not be so easy to restrain it! When there are casualties and injuries, the hatred will become bigger and bigger! If you want to stop, the people below will not accept it."

After hearing this, A Cai's eyes flashed with a hint of enlightenment. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said: "So, sir, who will win this battle? It would be better if the Corsicans win and defeat the Chixue Army, we can take the opportunity to take back the other territory of Moor County..."

When Charia heard this, she frowned and thought for a while, then shook her head firmly: "No, the Corsicans will be defeated! This guy Manninger is very powerful, and the Red Snow Army is also the elite of Odin, not the Corsicans can deal with it. Manninger will hesitate at the beginning, but once he let go of his hands and feet to fight, the Corsicans' defeat will only happen sooner or later. At that time, I am afraid that the Corsican military region will be swallowed by Manninger!"

A Cai was a little unhappy: "Isn't this too cheap for Odin people? They have taken the opportunity to occupy so much territory?"

Xia Ya laughed: "I'm afraid that Manninger has too few territory! The bigger the territory in his hands, the happier I'm!"

Looking at A Cai's blank eyes, Xia Ya hummed: "The Odin people are far away from the local area to fight, and there are only so many soldiers and they cannot get any supplements! He occupies too much, so he must divide his troops to guard all over the place, right? After the battle, no matter how powerful the Odin people are, there will be tens of thousands of people who have died or injured, right? They occupied Siltan County and some areas of Moor County. If they eat Corsica Military Region again... Humph, more than 40,000 people will have to separate and guard so many territory... This net is too big and will inevitably become weak. At that time, I am still afraid of him as a bird."

A Cai suddenly woke up and said with a smile: "Not bad! Sir, this fist is clenched tightly and it is difficult to deal with. If we open our hands and turn it into five fingers, we will not be afraid!"

Xia Ya touched A Cai's head, looked at his body, and smiled and said, "You guy, you are much tougher, but unfortunately you are still a little thinner. If you grow taller, you will be a cavalry."

As he was speaking, A Cai suddenly pointed to the distance outside the city and exclaimed: "Sir Yi, look! A horse is coming! It seems to be ours!"

Looking into the distance, there was indeed a horse coming from the north on the road. The knights on the horse waved their whips and urged their mounts. Seeing that the clothes were exactly what the Byzantine cavalry looked like.

The cavalry rushed to the city quickly. After entering the city, Xia Ya quickly heard the movement below on the city wall. An escort led a dusty cavalry to run up to the city tower.

The cavalry's face was covered in dust, so tired that he could hardly breathe. He rushed to Xia Ya and almost fell to the ground.

It was still Xia Ya who went up and hugged the guy: "What's wrong?!"

"Urgent, urgent military information! The county magistrate!" (After Clinsia died in his country, according to the Byzantine Empire law, Charia had temporarily announced that he would be the county magistrate of Mor County). The cavalry took out a tube from his arms. The tube was wet, obviously covered with sweat on his body. He gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Green has an order and must be handed over to you as quickly as possible! I brought two horses all the way out, and one horse ran to death on the way!"

When Xia Ya heard this, her heart suddenly sank!

If it weren't for an emergency, with the demeanor of a famous general like Mad Dog Green, he wouldn't have seemed so anxious.

He quickly opened the tube and pulled out a letter. The ink on the belief was intact. After Shaya opened it, it was written by Greene's handwritten handwritten.

And this military situation is actually just a short sentence.

"Two days ago, Odin's army appeared ten miles outside Denzel City. According to the scout's return, the flag should belong to Hasting's Black Flag Army."

Ten miles outside Denzel City...Odin's army...Black flag army, Hasting?!!

These words fell into Xia Ya's ears, and he felt dry mouth and his face changed wildly on the spot!!

Damn! I almost tried my best to solve Manninger easily and delayed this old boy!

Hasting! That bastard, didn’t the Black Flag Army defeat the Sixth Corps in the neighboring county in the east and were busy seizing territory? What did you do when you ran to More County?!

And Moore County is theoretically the offensive route of the Red Snow Army! What does Hasting mean to run into the attack?!

But no matter how these thoughts change, no matter how confused you are in your heart.

But the black and white letters were written by black and white, and the Black Flag Army had already appeared near Denzel City! As Greene, if it weren't for the verdict of the situation, she wouldn't have written such a letter to herself!!

Xia Ya was confused for a moment and suddenly looked up at the military envoy in front of her: "What did Green say when you came out? What did you want me to do?"

"Green, Lord Greene said, how to deal with it, please decide for yourself!!"
