Now that the Easterners have attacked, there is no reason to retreat. After Yumsburg, there is the Elbe River. Once they reach the Elbe River, Suplin Castle will tremble. Facing the current situation, Yuliko is frowning.
, even Turik beside him couldn't cheer up, "Your Majesty Duke, what should we do? What kind of medicine are sold in the gourd of the Easterners? If they surround Yumsburg but don't attack, do they want to waste their lives?"
Kill us and force us to open the city and surrender?"
Just like an unintentional complaint, Yuliko frowned. Is Tulik asking this as a test? Sure enough, Yuliko saw a trace of solemnity flashing between Tulik's brows. This solemnity was directed at him. Yuric
. These people in the church are really pervasive and want to get involved in everything. Yuliko was a little angry, but when he thought of the thousands of remnant soldiers under Turik's command, he had to deal with it carefully. The Yulico family
Although they have 5,000 soldiers, they are evenly matched with Turik's church soldiers. If they really fight, they may not get much benefit.
The reason why Turik tried to test was probably because he was afraid that the Yuric family would open the city and surrender. After all, Turik was a die-hard church member and would not betray the Pope even if he died. Yuric thought for a moment and made a helpless expression.
With a wry smile on his face, he said, "It may not necessarily be to trap us to death. The goal of the Easterners is the Elbe River and the Suplin Castle in the core area of the principality. Only by taking Suplin Castle can the imperial nobles be frightened. How could they possibly succeed in Yums?"
Is it taking too long?"
"Then why do Orientals do this?" Turik rubbed his forehead, and his beard that had not been trimmed for a long time looked dirty, but at this time, no one would care about Turik's image. Yuric thought
He thought and shook his head gently, "Who can explain this clearly?
Only the Easterners themselves know the specific reason, but they can guess a little bit. The church army was defeated miserably on the top of the Furious Water Mountains. The Easterners successfully arrived at Yumsburg, and beyond that is the Elbe River. Just be afraid of the East.
People want to see how much more troops the imperial nobles can put out. The imperial nobles will definitely make the final resistance. After all, the Kingdom of Saxony is the territory of the empire."
Although Yuliko's guess was not completely correct, it was not far off. Tie Mo did have this intention. As evening fell, the cold wind blew strongly outside Yumsburg and there was a whistling sound outside the tent. Such an environment
Next, he was stationed in the wild, and only he knew the suffering involved. Tie Mo also felt uncomfortable, but he still ordered to postpone the attack on the city and wait for two days. Elizabeth, Wang Zuogao and Geng Zhongming stayed in Feistak City.
Only Hailanzhu was left beside him, never leaving her.
Hai Lanzhu was obviously not used to the Lamenian winter, and she caught the wind and cold. Fortunately, it was not too serious. Lying in the man's arms, her red face was particularly clear, and her nose was wrinkled and sore. She asked softly
He said, "What on earth are you thinking? The Elbe River is just ahead. It's time for a quick victory. Why did you stop at Yumsburg? This is not your style. Are you worried about Yumsburg?"
The fort will not be able to be captured for a long time. If this is the case, it is really unnecessary."
"You, your temper is still a bit impatient. I can attack Festak City without hesitation, but will I stop at Yumsburg? In fact, the postponement of the attack is just a temporary move." Tie Mo hugged you fondly.
Hai Lanzhu, the brazier next to him was burning brightly, driving away the chill on his body, "The battle on the top of Wushui Mountain reminded me that since the church can send an army of more than 20,000 people, what about other German nobles?
Although a large number of German soldiers are still on the Istrian highlands, the Danube nobles and the eastern nobles are still strong. If these people send a large army to ambush near the Elbe River, it will not be a good thing after all. It is better to postpone the siege to allow time.
After finding out the situation of the Elbe River, if these German nobles want to stand up for the Saxons, we can take the opportunity to kill these blind people first, and then turn around to deal with Yumsburg. For us, Yumsburg
It's just a matter of time, and those German nobles will be the real trouble."
Tie Mo is not worried about Yumsburg. With the powerful strength of the Northern Shanxi Army, if they attack with all their strength, they may be able to defeat it in one day. The key is whether they can successfully capture the people of Elbe, Dorle and Royce.
They are all notoriously ruthless characters. If you don’t take strict precautions against them, it is not impossible for the boat to capsize in the sewer. In fact, when you reach Yumsburg, you are already very close to the Elbe River. Even if you don’t attack Yumsburg, you can still stimulate the Germans.
The nobles have sensitive hearts.
Tie Mo is a person who pays attention to practical interests. Since he wants to eat, he must take advantage of it. Hai Lanzhu smiled and patted Tie Mo. He felt that this guy was too cunning and always had some scheming thoughts.
I hope the Germans don't have any wrong ideas, otherwise they will be left with nothing to eat this time.
Whether Tie Mo is cunning or smart, his calculations are always on point. It is not a secret that the Eastern army besieged Yumsburg. Now the German nobles are all paying attention to the situation in Lamenia, especially Dor.
Le, Schwein and others. Doerle is extremely depressed. When things have developed to this point, no matter how stupid he is, he will know that the envoys sent to the Caucasus have been tricked.
Wolfrey is a arrogant and reckless man. He does not have so many twists and turns. He can trick the envoys around. It is probably instigated by the Orientals. As soon as the Orientals attacked Festak, Doerle cleverly recruited the envoys.
Back. It was almost evening, and a military newspaper was placed in front of him. Doerle opened it and read it, and frowned tightly. The pace of the Easterners was really fast.
Doerle does not want Saxony to fall into the hands of the Orientals. The Kingdom of Saxony has vast land and rich resources. No one wants to get a share of the pie, especially the Elbe River Basin. Doerle dreams of sharing some benefits. Orientals
With an army of 60,000 being inserted directly into the vicinity of Juemsburg, there is still an opportunity to take advantage of such a force. After thinking about it, Dorler sent people to find Schwein. Since the situation in Saxony was confusing, the church sent another army there, so
Schwein also took time off to come to Hohenzollern. Soon, Schwein, who was talking with Gregor, arrived at Dorler's private property.
The Frederick family has survived for hundreds of years, and its heritage is naturally not comparable to that of a rising family like Schwein. The huge manor, the towering bluestone castle, and the noble style are everywhere. Dorle is very impressed by Schwein.
Because of face, he stood at the door to greet him in person. The two exchanged pleasantries and walked into the castle side by side. Mo Kan just smiled, but this meant that the great eastern nobles headed by the Frederick family finally recognized the Danube nobles.
status.
After the two parties took their seats, Dorler did not hesitate and explained the situation in Yumsburg in detail.
Schwein was extremely smart and heard something in Dorle's words. He lowered his head slightly and said with an uncertain smile, "Master Dorle, do you want to make a last-ditch effort? If you want to take action, the Elbe River is
This is our last chance. After crossing the Elbe River, only Suplin Castle can be defended. However, if we do that, we will not be able to escape, and we will definitely fight against the Easterners."
"Yes, I want to make a final attempt near the Elbe River. Is Mr. Schwein willing to watch Saxony's interests fall into the hands of the Easterners? Although you and I look down on Lothair, the Elbe River Basin can
How can we give up so easily to feed millions of people?" Doerle pointed to the map on the table and clicked on a certain place, "The misty forest east of the Elbe River must not be forgotten by Mr. Schwein. This jungle is vast and winter is
There is often thick fog here. If we make good use of it, we can use a small number of troops to hold back the Eastern army, but I don’t know how many people Mr. Schwein can send."
Doerle obviously didn't want to give Schwein a chance to refuse. Schwein smiled faintly without any anger. Instead, he raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "It is not impossible to stop the Easterners in the misty forest, but for the interests of the Elbe River, we
Want half."
After hearing Schwein's unkind words, Doerle frowned in displeasure. Half of the benefits from the Elbe River were equivalent to pulling a tooth out of a tiger's mouth.
Once the Danube nobles take away half of the interests, it is equivalent to occupying an important piece of land in the northern part of the Eastern noble principality. This is not a matter of land. The eastern nobles will face a pincer attack. The Danubian nobles can also jump directly from the south to the north.
He could even extend his tentacles to the Hohenzollern area. Schwein was really ambitious, so Dorler thought for a long time and decided to agree. No matter how difficult the Danube nobles were, they couldn't compare to the Easterners.
Doerle is known as the century-old hero of the Frederick family, and his reputation is certainly not in vain. He can take things up and let them go, at least on the surface, there is no trace of dissatisfaction. Even Schwein deeply admires this. Stretching out
With his right hand, Dorle smiled and said, "Okay, everything is as Lord Schwein said. However, for this battle in the misty forest, the Danube nobles must provide at least 10,000 troops."
"Very good, Mr. Doerle, please speak quickly. The deal is done." Schwein high-fived Doerle very happily, which was regarded as a verbal agreement. There was a reason for Schwein's boldness, and he actually didn't want to see it.
If the interests of the Elbe River were handed over to the Easterners, they would have prepared their troops long ago, otherwise they would not have negotiated with Pope Gregory.
It's a pity that Gregory could no longer spare enough manpower to rush to the Elbe River. Unexpectedly, there was no light in the east and no light in the west. Gregory could not help, but the Frederick family took the initiative to come to the door. Schwei.
Because he was so happy, Doerle felt a little guilty, and he didn't know whether today's decision was good or bad.
The Kingdom of Saxony seemed calm, but beneath the calm there was an undercurrent. There was still no movement in Yumsburg, but the city of Kiev hundreds of miles away was already full of swords and guns. After a long struggle, Lothair finally
Ordered the occupation of this sacred place and began to approach the Suzdal River. No matter how reluctant Lothair was, approaching the Suzdal River and attacking the city of Vladimir was the last hope of the German warriors.
Whether Vladimir City can be captured is still unknown, but Suzdal River has to be captured. Nearly 70,000 German troops left Kiev City and launched a full-scale attack on the Suzdal River defense line. The garrison stationed by the river immediately felt the huge pressure.
Pressure. In order to deal with the threat of the German army and the Danes, Elizabeth also came to the city of Vladimir. Since the Battle of Suzdal River started, military reports from all parties have been sent to the city like snowflakes. This is the first time Elizabeth has commanded such a large force.
In the battle, I was inevitably a little nervous, "How about the western defense line? If there is a problem, immediately send Gusuha's troops to attack."
"Princess, don't worry, the western defense line is as solid as Mount Tai, but the German attack is very fierce. These Germans are so fierce that they dare to swim from the river in such a cold day." Saito said this, unable to hide the fear on his face
Elizabeth was also worried. I am afraid that the Germans were also aware of their situation, so they fought extremely hard in the Battle of Suzdal River. In any case, our troops on the front line of the Suzdal River were far inferior to the Germans. If we just fight head-on,
, may not be a good thing, "Is there any movement in the Rogda Hills? Order Cao Yuan's troops, no matter how the war in Vladimir develops, his troops must be firmly anchored in the Rogda Hills. If he dares to take a step back,
I chopped off his head. In addition, all the Turov garrison went south and must reach the city of Vladimir in three days. I wanted to see if the Germans had any tricks up their sleeves that could swallow the city of Vladimir from our hands.
.”
Although Elizabeth was a woman, her words were very fierce. Before the Suzdal River ended, she had already decided to fight the Germans in Vladimir City to the end. Saito sighed with some shame.
, although this princess is slightly inexperienced, her courage is really not inferior to that of the man. The battle on the Suzdal River was very fierce, and neither Baisier nor Sugus spared any effort at this time.
Repeated attacks on the Suzdal River defense line.
Since the boats had been taken away by the Northern Shanxi Army, the Germans had no choice but to swim across the river. In the middle of winter, the river was so wide that many German soldiers became numb in their hands and feet halfway through the swim and drowned directly in the river. Facing the roaring incoming waves,
There was a rain of arrows, and the way forward was full of blood. The Germans paid a heavy price and still failed to reach the other side. Baisier was bleeding from the heart and walked around anxiously, "Sugus, we can't continue fighting like this.
If the fight continues like this, even if the Suzdal River is taken, how many people will be left in the end? Don’t forget that there is a city of Vladimir behind the Suzdal River. Damn it, do the Easterners
Is it made of iron? Even now, I haven’t even taken a step back.”
In such a fierce battle, the Germans suffered heavy losses, and the Northern Shanxi Army guarding the river bank was not much better. The German soldiers rushed forward desperately, especially the soldiers and horses guarding the bridge. They had already lost more than 2,000 people in the face of repeated attacks by the Germans.
Soldiers and horses. Corpses lay on both sides of the stone bridge. The cold wind passed by, leaving behind stiff blood clots. War is always cruel, and kind people will only fall sooner.
