Chapter 1041 Mud Feet (please vote for me)
The Almohad man pointed by the officer was originally a soldier of the Confederate Army.
They belong to the local garrison. These extremely practical heroes originally lived under the dark rule of General Hadou. Although they wanted to resist and save the vast number of southern people from dire straits, they could not find a way out and had to
It's a long wait.
When the Laohe troops came over, they immediately saw a glimmer of light in the vast darkness. Then, under the inspiration of the God of Light, they joined the Laohe troops without hesitation like moths flying towards the lights, and worked with them to defend the country.
World peace and regional stability. Jointly build a new social order.
Of course, these are all official statements from the Almohad orthodox government.
The local people all have more appropriate and vivid words to call them: Almohad traitors, black dogs, stinky pigs who sold their souls for twenty pesos~!
That stinking pig...well, that soldier was specially selected because he was a local and knew the road conditions well. His main responsibility was to lead the way for the peacekeeping troops.
After hearing the officer's question, he couldn't help but hesitate. Then he thought about it and said softly: "Go down the road, turn west and walk along the river for a few miles. There is a small village there, and then go inside, and there is
A smaller mountain village.”
The officer glanced at him coldly, then waved his hand and shouted angrily: "Team Three, stay, the others are following me."
Under the guidance of their guide, a group of cavalrymen ran wildly and soon discovered the small village located behind the woods.
The officer sat on his horse, looking down at the village seriously.
I saw that the village was not big, with only about a few dozen households. The houses were low and covered with thick straw. The walls were all in disrepair, showing a dark color, and were extremely crude.
He immediately whipped his whip into the void and loudly ordered: "Brothers, surround me~!"
A group of cavalrymen agreed and then galloped out.
Amidst the roar of iron hoofs, they had already divided into several groups, but in an instant they were already in place, blocking all the exits of the village and surrounding the entire village.
The officer led a group of soldiers and rushed into the village on horseback without any scruples.
They rushed to the crossroads of the village and found that no one dared to resist, so they couldn't help but snorted coldly. Then they turned their horses around and paced back and forth in the village.
While he was patrolling around, he shouted an order: "Search, go door to door and search for me~!"
The cavalrymen jumped off their horses and rushed into the small village like wolves and tigers with their weapons in hand.
When the people in the village saw the large group of peacekeeping cavalry approaching, they were so frightened that they hid in their homes.
All of them hid behind the door, staring coldly at the cavalry, watching the domineering and arrogant cavalry rampaging across their land. A cold light flashed in their eyes.
Although the south is extremely far away from Nai'an, Nai'an's powerful and unrivaled power of industrial civilization has had a huge impact on the south.
With the help of developed shipping, the Flying Eagle Group has been sparing no effort to dump their products all over the world.
And these southern aristocratic and gentry families all come from country bumpkins and have never seen much of the world. Drinking just one wine made by those old country guys in France is enough for them to brag about for a lifetime. Not to mention the various extreme wines produced by the Flying Eagle Group.
Targeted consumer products.
They couldn't put it down when they saw the products produced by the Flying Eagle Group. There were bags that loved horse shit, broken shoes and sports cars...
Whenever I see something, I want it, just like the bumpkin nobles who went to Europe during the Tsarist Russia era.
But you have to know that although the products produced by Feiying Group are good, they are also ridiculously expensive.
Although the nobles in the south have been passed down for hundreds of years, their money does not come from strong winds. And the bigger the family, it does not mean that they are rich, but that they have huge expenses~!
Coupled with the large-scale dumping of these luxury goods, the only way for them to maintain their wealth from shrinking is to multiply the price of the luxury goods they bought by three, and then increase taxes on the people under their rule.
(The reason why it is multiplied by three is because they will buy those luxury goods again next year, so they have to leave themselves some room to avoid being tight on money.)
Due to the low productivity in the feudal farming era, the common people stuck their butts out and dug in the fields desperately, so they could only maintain a subsistence life.
And now that the nobles are raising taxes, their lives will be even more difficult. Not to mention that a large amount of hard currencies such as gold and silver are flowing out, directly causing deflation.
Originally, a bag of grain could be sold for one silver coin, but now it can only be exchanged for half. Originally, after working all year long, I could still buy some oil, salt, and a red-headed rope like Yang Bailao, but now I can only buy some salt with my money.
Yes, this is the standard official salt mixed with five ounces of soil per pound.
Who can live this kind of life and who is not angry?
However, due to the proper strategies of the nobles, they kept making various excuses and successfully diverted the hatred of the common people.
Therefore, after the common people found out that they had less money, they did not hate the nobles around them, but hated the Flying Eagle Group far away.
When the respected old people in the village had nothing to do, they would gather together to scold the unscrupulous businessmen for making such obscene things and ruining the lives of their families.
In addition, in order to resist the huge Laohe army, General Hadou recruited troops from local areas and took their young and strong labor away. Many people's relatives served as soldiers in Hadou's army.
Therefore, these southerners naturally have no good impression of the Laohe troops led by Lord Luo.

The cavalry received the order and kicked open the door of each house without ceremony, regardless of whether the door fell to the ground, and then rushed in viciously.
Immediately afterwards, there were shouts and curses, dogs barking, children crying, women screaming, and the sound of breaking pots and bowls coming from the village.
Various sounds intertwined together, making it extremely chaotic. It was like bandits raiding and plundering.
Suddenly, a man rushed out of the house, fell to the ground, jumped up, and ran lifelessly along the dirt road in the village.
A cavalryman chased after him, running wildly and shouting: "Catch him, catch him quickly~!"
When the cavalry on guard at the entrance of the village saw this, they shouted "ho", shook their reins, and chased after him. They reached behind the fleeing villager in a few steps, then picked up their sheathed sword and slapped him fiercely on the back.
After receiving a heavy blow, the mountain man suddenly rolled to the ground. The cavalryman pulled the reins and turned the horse's head to stop him, then jumped off the horse. Seeing that the village man was about to struggle to get up, he kicked
He stepped heavily on his back and pushed him back to the ground.
Then he picked up the riding crop and whipped him hard, causing the villager to roll on the ground holding his head.
The cavalrymen who were chasing him ran over, raised their big feet and stomped on him heavily.
Several cavalrymen surrounded him and gave him a beating. It didn't take long to beat him until he collapsed on the ground motionless.
The cavalry then picked him up from both sides, dragged him on the ground to the entrance of the village, and threw him in front of the officer's horse.
One of the cavalrymen showed the armor in his hand and said: "Boss, this is our equipment, the blood on it has not dried yet."
The officer stared at the mountain people on the ground with a cold expression, glanced at the big tree next to him, and said: "Hang this bastard up for me. This is a den of thieves. Get the whole village here. Tell the brothers to be careful.
search,"
Soon, the cavalry searched the peacekeeping troops' belongings from several homes. The soldiers hung up all the men who had hidden these belongings in their homes, and then whipped them with all their strength.
The whole village was also driven away and gathered at the entrance of the village, looking at the menacing peacekeeping soldiers in fear.
The mountain man who was hung up screamed and screamed as he was beaten, and his clothes were quickly ripped to pieces.
"Tell me, where did the things come from? Who are their accomplices? Where are they?" The cavalry showed no mercy to them and kept asking questions.
However, these people just insisted that these things were picked up in the mountains.
When asked where they picked it up, these people told them in a messy way and couldn't compare the previous and the last.
Listening to their wailing and begging for mercy, the officer felt more and more irritated, and his anger suddenly rose. He pointed at them and said cruelly: "Don't waste time, ask them again, and if they don't tell me, I'll cut them off."
Ears, if they don't tell me, I'll chop off their hands, and if they don't tell me, I'll chop off their feet as well."
As soon as he said this, the hanging villagers were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they trembled and looked at the sneering peacekeeping soldiers in front of them.
The soldier took out his dagger, walked up to the first man, put the blade on his ear, and said coldly: "Ask me again, who are your accomplices? Where are they?"
The villager looked at the soldiers in front of him timidly, his teeth chattering, and he stammered: "It's really... we... picked it up, picked it up."
The soldier raised his knife and cut off one of his ears, which was still on the ground. The man screamed loudly in pain.
Then several soldiers came up, took him down, grabbed his arms and pinned him to the ground, and put their swords on his elbows.
"I ask you again, do you want to tell me?"
The mountain man's face was covered with blood. He lay on the ground and looked up at the soldier holding the sword, and finally shook his head.
The soldier sneered and raised his sword to cut him off. A young man next to him shouted anxiously: "Don't kill him, I say, I say everything..."
The villager who was pressed to the ground jerked away, raised his head and said loudly: "Shut up, you..."
The soldier next to him kicked him in the mouth, rendering him speechless.
Then the soldier pointed at the young man hanging and said, "Say~!"
At this time, the young man poured out everything he knew, including how they ambush the small peacekeeping force, the hiding place of the Southern Army in the mountains and forests, and even revealed that in the next small village, there were villagers who colluded with the Southern Army.
Activity.
After the officer listened with a straight face, he pondered for a moment and ordered: "Brothers, assemble."
Then he pointed at the villagers who were hanging on the books and said coldly: "Behead their dogs for me~!"
Several people were paralyzed by fright. The young man was so frightened that he cried and said anxiously: "I have said it all, I have said it all..."
The officer snorted and said: "Kill my brothers and think that I will spare you, behead them~!"
The gathered villagers shouted and rushed upwards, but were immediately stopped by the soldiers nearby.
Several soldiers stepped forward, put down the hanging people, kicked their knees, and forced them to kneel on the ground. Then the soldiers behind them swung their swords and slashed them down.
The movements were done in one go, without any sloppiness, and the beheading was completed in the blink of an eye. Even before the villagers below could react, several heads were already rolling on the ground.
Then the soldiers kicked the corpse on the back, knocking the headless corpse to the ground, and wiped the blood on the sword on the corpse expressionlessly.
The villagers below immediately burst into tears, and several people fainted from fear. The villagers still wanted to rush forward, but with an order, the soldiers all showed their swords and stopped in front of them.
The villagers could only look at the peacekeeping soldiers opposite in horror, daring to get angry but afraid to speak.
The officer glanced at them contemptuously, and then said "Bah~!" and vomited heavily.
"You will be punished. God will punish you." An old woman with all white hair squeezed through the crowd and walked to the front with a cane, her expression was sad, and her eyes were full of anger.
"Retribution?" The officer sneered and said, "Yes, it is retribution. From the day Hadou landed on our land of Ruman, it has been destined that we will come to retaliate against you.
As for God?”
The officer smiled proudly, pointed at himself with his thumb, and said: "The Son of God is our boss's mistress. In other words, God is our boss's cheap father-in-law. They and I are also one family."
"You...you," the old woman was so angry that she couldn't speak. She leaned on her crutches and yelled, "This is blasphemy, blasphemy~! General Hadou will not let you go."
The officer suddenly became angry and said: "Brothers, burn this damn village to me, and I will show you who is the boss in this land now~!"
The cavalry of the peacekeeping force quickly gathered again and went to hunt down the hiding Confederate Army.
Behind the peacekeepers, flames shot into the sky, and hundreds of villagers huddled together and howled as they watched their burning village.
×××××××
As a group of cavalry was killed during the patrol, the cavalry officers stationed in the area took retaliatory action, killing more than a dozen locals who collaborated with the enemy and burning two villages.
The matter was of great importance, so after the whole thing was over, the officer wrote a report extremely seriously and handed it in, explaining what happened in detail, and also attached his own defense for the act of burning the village.
As it was handed over at different levels, the report passed through the hands of first-level officers, followed by a lot of comments such as "read and forwarded", and was finally handed over to Lorraine.
Lorraine took the report and read it briefly, then a wry smile appeared on his face. From the final approval of the army commander and the group commanding general, it can be seen that everyone disagreed with this matter.
After shaking her head and sighing, Lorraine put the report in a document basket nearby.
There, a thick pile of similar documents has been piled up. The final release of this box of documents will only be archived and sealed.
Because no one cares about these things, not even the Almohads.
In fact, Queen Isabella's men killed the Southerners much more ruthlessly than the peacekeeping troops, killing villages and cities at the same time.
Although Laohe's troops had been advancing vigorously before, the situation changed dramatically after arriving at the border of Oromia Province.
It is not unreasonable for Hadou to choose this place as his base.
Different from the flat and fertile southern plains before, the three provinces of Oromia, Winter, and Dotre have always been mountainous and hilly, with rugged roads. They are like a peripheral barrier, surrounding the Halua Plain in the middle.
.And the center of Halua Plain is Haligad, the home base of General Hadou.
If Laohe's troops want to attack Haddu and destroy his home base, they must pass through Oromia Province.
Since entering October, their march here has been extremely unsatisfactory, and they have been repeatedly harassed and ambushed by the enemy.
For example, the army camped somewhere, and while they were sleeping, they suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums outside, shouting "kill the sky", as if someone was attacking the camp.
Everyone put on their pants in a hurry, took the guys and ran out of the camp. As a result, the sound from the other side disappeared again.
When I went back to sleep, there was another sound.
This kind of thing is extremely annoying.
If you ignore it, there might be a few rockets coming from the opposite side. Or even a small-scale exploratory attack.
If we send out troops to search, if we send too many troops, we will be blind and blind, and we won't find anything. If we send too few, those people may not be able to come back.
It's like when you are sleeping soundly, there is a mosquito buzzing next to your ear. You can't fight it away, and you can't get it away. Moreover, you are very sleepy, and you don't want to open your eyes. Finally, it sticks to the sole of your foot.
I got a bite from it.
The itch is heartbreaking, but it can't be scratched. People who hate it can't help it.
Lorraine also tried to ambush his troops around the base. When the enemy came to harass them, he would kill them.
But those scoundrels were extremely cunning. After suffering two losses, they also changed their strategy. They first sent a small group of people to pretend to harass, and then they retreated when Lao He's troops were ambushed and attacked.
Ambush, leading to their ambush circle.
Unfortunately, Duke Luo discovered something was wrong in time and led a large group of people to greet him immediately. Otherwise, half of the division's cavalry would have been dumped.
The two sides launched an ambush, counter-ambush, counter-counter-ambush, counter-counter-counter-ambush...
Although the scale of the battle was not very large, it was extremely cruel, no smaller than a large-scale battle.
Moreover, since this is the opponent's hometown and he is extremely familiar with the geographical conditions, in this guerrilla war, Lord Luo has only a large army, but he cannot take any advantage at all. As soon as the opponent sees that the situation is not right, he immediately turns around and goes into the forest.
Although the army here was powerful, they could only watch helplessly and did not dare to risk pursuing them.
Sir Luo stood up and looked at the map in front of him, looking at the red lines representing small groups of enemies. They were scattered around the army like fleas. From time to time they would jump over to the army from all directions and bite them.
Take a bite, then turn around and run away.
But his own army is like a giant with clay feet. Although it is powerful, it has no way to defeat the opponent.
He couldn't help but slap the table with hatred, and cursed angrily: "***, this damn Hadou. If you have the guts, don't compete with Sir Alex in micro-operations, and fight face to face."
