Volkan can lead the Turov Principality to stand out from the Eighteen Principalities. How can it be possible without extraordinary talents? Everything is fake, and interests are real. In fact, Volkan also knows the current situation, and he keeps dragging it on
Naturally, they have their own reasons. There is nothing that can hold the Germans back. When they break out and return to Kypros, will the Germans turn their backs on each other and leave as they please? What kind of covenants and friendships are all bullshit, Lotay
I am cunning and ruthless. Today I am your brother, and tomorrow I can use your head to exchange money. When dealing with such an ally, what will happen if you are not careful? "Your Majesty, it is actually not impossible for me to agree to break out of the encirclement, as long as...
Your Majesty agrees that all food supplies will be handed over to Lord Yeltsin."
"Gah" A sharp light flashed through Lothair's eyes, and he trembled in his heart. What a Volkan, he really cannibalizes people without spitting out their bones. Concentrating all the food, grass and baggage into Yeltsin's hands is not giving his life to the Slavs.
Do you have it in your hands? To this day after the Eastern Expedition, there are still more than 40,000 Germanic warriors in the Ice and Snow City. Although they are a coalition, each has its own baggage system. Food and grass baggage is the lifeblood of the army. You can give up anything, but give up food and grass baggage.
Are you ready to eat?
Once all the food is handed over to Yeltsin, more than 40,000 Germanic soldiers will have to live in the face of the Slavs. Who is Yeltsin? He is the consul of the Hammer Cavalry Regiment and the number one loser around Volkan. Without food, don't even think about it.
Get rid of the control of the Slavs. Volkan's move is really insidious. If you agree to Volkan, no matter what the final result of the breakout is, the Holy Empire will not be able to get rid of the war carriage led by the Slavs, because you have to fight
, more than 40,000 Germanic warriors are a group of hostages that cannot be abandoned.
Lothair was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer. Seeing Lothair's face full of anger and sorrow, Volkan looked relaxed. Hum, this old fox also had troubles. Back then in Suplin Castle, let the old fox
After a while, it’s time to let the old fox have a taste of it. If you want to use the Slavs as spearmen, you have to see whether your own means are strong or not.
Volkan doesn't care about that paper covenant. Hey, the Germans are helping to deal with the Easterners, and that is Kypros's allies. If you dare to withdraw and leave, then I'm sorry. If you turn your back and turn your allies into hostages, Russia will be finished, and the Holy Roman Empire will be finished.
Don't even think about it. Without Lothair, the Holy Roman Empire would probably have a hard time. Not only did the Germans have to face the threat of the Byzantine Orthodox Christians, but none of the big nobles in the country were efficient, especially Frederick.
The northern nobles headed by the family.
Lothair really wanted to strangle Wolkan to death. At this moment, this guy's smile looked so mean, making people have the urge to kill, but he had to admire Wolkan's ruthlessness. Wolkan was usually gentle and showed his pictures everywhere.
Grand Duke Rolf is recuperating, but in fact he is a mad dog, more shameless than anyone else. Volkan's attitude is already very obvious. Either everyone will die together in the Ice and Snow City, or Germany will hand over the leadership of the war. In short,
We should be a pair of brothers in need, and the idea of withdrawing from the army should not be entertained.
Finally, Lothair took a long breath, walked slowly to Volkan, and said with a smile, "Your Excellency, the Grand Duke, you are very smart, I agree."
This was the first time that Lothair was eaten to death. He knew that he would not be able to pick it out this time. The Holy Empire must continue to fight with Kypros, and either win together or fail together. Like before, there are
The strategy of charging forward when you have an advantage and hiding when you have a disadvantage is probably not going to work. With Lothair agreeing, there will be no resistance to the breakout, and the next step is to make a specific breakout plan.
To Lothair's surprise, Volkan seemed to have been prepared for this, "Your Excellency, the Easterners have gathered their forces in the east and south. Although winter is coming and the snow is covering them, the Easterners will not be able to retreat as long as they hide near the Ice and Snow City.
There is a big problem. Even if we rush out of the city at the fastest speed and want to pass through the Taimyr Plateau, it is probably impossible. The Eastern cavalry will definitely catch up with us, not to mention the Easterners will definitely catch up with us in Taimyr.
A elite force is stationed on the Er plateau to guard us. A few days ago, I had a plan. We can break through to the north. There are many mountains in the north, which is not conducive to cavalry operations. Moreover, with the cold winter coming and the harsh climate, the Easterners probably won’t bite them.
They won't let us go. As long as we can escape to the Herta River and the Berlanga Mountains, we don't have to worry about the pursuit of the Orientals."
The escape route planned by Volkan is not much different from what Lothair thought. From any aspect, breaking out to the north is the best choice. In this case, regardless of the dangerous terrain and bad weather, as long as it can be avoided
But a head-on conflict between the Easterners would be considered a victory. It is true that if you want to cross the mountains and defeat the cold Siberian winter, you have to pay a heavy price, but no matter what the cost, it is better than facing the soldiers and horses of the Easterners.
"I agree to flee to the Berlanga Mountains, but Your Majesty the Grand Duke, have you ever thought about how we can return to Kipros from the complex terrain of the Berlanga Mountains?" Lothair stared at Volkan.
He had always been angry in his heart and wanted to find an opportunity to ridicule Volkan.
Volkan smiled slightly and shrugged easily, "Your Majesty, our warriors include many Komi and Evenki people. They are active in the Berlanga Mountains all year round and are very familiar with the local situation. Now
It has entered early winter. In half a month, the Ob River and Lake Kara will freeze due to the cold. In this season, war horses can run on the ice. We can reach the Ob River and Lake Kara through the ice.
Novaya Zemlya, and then enter the Principality of Mira from Novaya Zemlya.”
Volkan was talking eloquently, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. Lothair was so angry because he was really deceived by Volkan. How could this kid not break through? If he didn't break out, he could mess up the breakout plan
So detailed? It seems that the old Slavic man understands this barbaric land. He even knows when the Ob River will freeze. Volkan is so scheming that he has to reconsider his view of the Slavs.
No matter how much Lothair hated Volkan, at least this covenant relationship could not be dissolved in a short time. As the Germanic baggage was handed over to Yeltsin, he was completely choked by the Slavs and was passive everywhere. It snowed continuously.
Two days later, the weather in Siberia was originally harsh, and the heavy snow made the area around Ice and Snow City even more deserted. Facing the violent storm and snow, the Northern Shanxi Army stationed near Ice and Snow City withdrew to the vicinity of Siberia City in disgrace.
The heavy snow has not stopped yet. Hai Lanzhu was wrapped in a thick fur coat and wearing a thick cotton hat. Even so, he kept rubbing his hands to relieve the heat. He stood at the top of the city and looked out of the city unwillingly, "This
I finally got to see the horrible weather in Siberia. It’s really annoying. But luckily, those barbarians can’t do much in this horrible weather. But I just don’t understand why you wanted to garrison in Siberia in the first place.
?”
"Zhu'er, you don't understand this. Do you know how different you Mongolians and Jurchens are compared to us? The difference lies in your vision. If this governor hadn't opened up this land, you know what Siberia is.
What the hell?" Tie Mo was wrapped in a cloak and was still blowing the cowhide. In this damn weather, apart from hiding in the room and doing bed work, he couldn't find any fun at other times, so he just blew the cowhide.
Tie Mo was a bit arrogant and even shameless. The garrison in Siberia was purely a mistake. If he hadn't met the adventurer Ivanjie by chance, he wouldn't have had the idea of garrisoning in Siberia. After all, Siberia was too harsh at this time.
Far away. Many times, it was simply a burden to the Ming Dynasty.
Hai Lanzhu curled her lips, she had long been used to this kind of talk from her men, "Tie Superintendent, you are not afraid that the wind will flash your tongue. In the early years, weren't you Han people always pressed down and beaten? In those days, the Jurchens
They plundered the capital, but I didn’t see what happened to you.”
"Gah" Tie Mo really wanted to find something to say to counter Hai Lanzhu, but unfortunately he couldn't find it. Is the Ming Dynasty weak? Not weak at all. When it comes to weapon creation, all instruments are far ahead, and firearms are not the same.
The Ming Dynasty was really a weird dynasty. It was different from the later Manchu and Qing Dynasties. The Manchu and Qing Dynasties were beaten when they fell behind. The Ming Dynasty was better, and they were beaten when they were ahead.
Just when Tie Mo looked embarrassed, several black figures appeared on the vast white land outside the city. Hai Lanzhu's expression tightened, and he was too lazy to argue with Tie Mo. He took the telescope from the guard and observed it, "Well,
Don’t worry, he’s one of our own, I’m guessing he’s right, he’s from the Ice and Snow City’s forward outpost.”
The weather was bad. Although the main army withdrew, several outposts were still left around the Ice and Snow City, keeping a close eye on every move in the Ice and Snow City. The snow was still falling, and the soldiers from these outposts rushed back. It was obvious that something had happened.
Tie Mo and Hai Lanzhu walked down to the city together and waited at the city gate. Soon the soldiers outside the city took out their tokens and chanted slogans and entered the city. Several people walked into the city gate and were stunned. Unexpectedly, Tie Mo
He and Hai Lanzhu were waiting here together, and everyone was very excited for a while, "Supervisor, madam, the brothers have been staring around the Ice and Snow City for a long time, and those barbarians really made some movement. Before they came, the barbarians suddenly let go of Dongcheng.
Gate, soldiers and horses are constantly heading north."
"What?" Hailanzhu's eyes widened, full of disbelief. Are these barbarians crazy? They want to break out at this time? Or go north. There are mountains to the north, but Hailanzhu is still not familiar with the terrain of Siberia, and he
He didn't dare to make a conclusion, so he frowned and looked at Tie Mo.
Tie Mo was also a little surprised. He was somewhat unexpected for the Slavs to make such a decision. "It seems that these barbarians are going to escape."
Not long after, Sheng Tianshen held an emergency meeting. The generals who were hiding in the room to keep warm sat on their seats reluctantly. Shang Kexi tilted his head. Even though there was a brazier next to him, he still habitually
He tightened his fur and said, "It's almost night, what can happen? Could it be that the supervisor saw that we were working too hard and gave us a drink to keep warm?"
A group of generals all showed eager eyes. After coming to Siberia, if you want to say what they miss the most, it must be wine, and it is liquor. In this damn weather, it is really uncomfortable not to drink. Unfortunately, the Northern Shanxi Army has
Since joining the army, there have been strict rules and regulations. As long as it is not vacation time, drinking is prohibited in the army. Tie Mo has set an example for this military rule, so that no one below dares to disobey military orders.
I remember that a few years ago, Liu Guoneng drank two sips of wine when he was stationed in the garrison, and he was pulled out by the soldiers of Ruifeng Battalion and whipped twenty times. The executioner was his enemy, and no one dared to break the rules. Who is Liu Guoneng?
Like Zhou Dingshan, he is the right-hand man of the governor, known as the Second General of Hengha. He can't hide from him. The others should rest. It's just that the weather in Siberia is really too boring. Now I want to drink some wine.
If a person does not have one thousand, he still has eight hundred.
"Ahem!" As soon as Tie Mo came downstairs, he heard everyone talking about drinking. Who the hell doesn't want to drink some wine? But this mouth cannot be opened. Once the mouth is opened, hundreds of thousands of Siberian front troops will not be able to fight with the Slavic old man.
The same thing happened to me when I was addicted to alcoholism. "Drink whatever you want. How about I put two jars of wine here for you, and whoever has the guts can drink it?"
Hai Lanzhu had a strange smile on his face. These people acted indifferently. It was no big deal. They would hold an emergency meeting and actually discussed drinking. They deserved to be scolded. Tie Mo had a straight face and Wang Zuogao closed his eyes and said nothing.
Lanzhu had no choice but to reach out and motion for everyone to sit down, "What are you going to drink? The old guys are already running away. Do you still have the heart to drink? I just got the news that the barbarian army in Ice and Snow City has broken through to the north."
Everyone was stunned, and then started talking among themselves. Shang Kexi touched his goatee arrogantly and said with disdain, "Are these old men crazy from hunger? Are they not afraid of freezing to death when they run to the poor mountains and harsh waters in the north?
Besides, there are high mountains covered with heavy snow, and there are mountain streams everywhere. Breaking out to the north is simply asking for death. Do you think I can survive this winter in the mountains?"
"General Shang is right, Supervisor, General Yimo, since Lao Maozi breaks out to the north, let's break out to the north. We only need to regain the Ice and Snow City and send troops to block the road from the north mountains to the south, and we can be trapped to death.
These bearded men. Even if there are birds and beasts in the mountains, these things alone are not enough for the bearded men." Shang Kexi did not take the breakout seriously at all.
Seeing that his group of arrogant and powerful generals did not take the breakout seriously, Tie Mo felt distressed. Wang Zuogao couldn't stand listening. Liu Guoneng was just about to speak up and agree. It's gratifying to support him.
Seeing Wang Zuogang, who had been pretending to be confused with his eyes closed, he sat up straight, clenched his fists and knocked on the table, "Everyone, is it okay to listen to a certain word or deed? You really treat these old fools as fools. They know that it is a dead end, but they will still do it.
Breaking out to the north? We still lack understanding of the situation in Siberia, so Liu asked you, which of you has been to the Ob River and who has been to the Berlanga Mountains?"
