Episode 14: The Great Conspiracy, Section 6, Going Deep into the Enemy's Territory 1-2
The sun is scorching, today is probably the hottest day of the year, and there is no wind around. A small town in Nora Kamu is as calm as ever, and it is even calmer than usual. The weather is so hot that almost no one wants to leave.
indoor.
On the city wall, several soldiers were hiding behind arrow stacks. This was the only place on the city wall that could block the sun. The soldiers' armors had been thrown aside and they were leaning there lazily.
"Hey, look what's over there." A soldier saw a moving black shadow on the plain in the distance.
"Well, it's the army." Another soldier looked at it carefully for a long time and came to this conclusion. But he immediately said: "It's really strange why the army appears here."
The officer who was dozing against the wall cursed impatiently: "You guys are not afraid of the heat. Who cares what kind of army they are? This place is 1,300 kilometers away from the border. How can there be enemies?"
The officer was right. It had only been five days since the Yasi army officially entered the province that Nora Kamu deliberately gave up, and Nora Kamu also sent a large number of troops to fight. More importantly, even the messengers could not
It is impossible to cover 1,300 kilometers in five days.
Several soldiers looked at each other and thought that what the officer said was right. They found the arrow stack without sunlight again.
"I need to open the city gate from the inside." A cold voice came from the group of people. It was Muharlin, the Crazy Lion of the North, Yasi's first general.
After hearing Ammu's order, the girls riding the magic eagle each threw a rope. Each soldier in the front group of cavalry held the end of the rope with their left hand and galloped wildly. As they approached the wall of the small city, they led
The girl in the team dismounted the magic eagle and let out a loud roar.
Hearing the roar, all the cavalrymen stood on their horses and ran up the city wall with the help of the magic eagle's pull.
The officers and soldiers who were resting behind the arrow stack looked in horror at the people who seemed to fall from the sky. No one dared to believe their eyes. But these soldiers, who were bare-chested and had skin that had been tanned red and black by the sun, did not speak at all, carrying heavy weights on their backs.
With one swing of the sword, all those who could move in front of him were cut into two pieces.
I don't know if the girls didn't like to see this bloody scene, or because it was cooler at high altitudes, so they all rode magic eagles and flew above the clouds.
"Come on, there is no need to surrender troops, no nobles who do not need to surrender, each team will find its own way for dinner tonight." Ammu saw his soldiers rushing to the top of the city, and immediately gave the order for a general attack.
Except for Amu's few personal guards, everyone rushed towards the small town quickly.
When Amu pulled his horse and slowly entered the city, the battle in the city was completely over, the blood stains in the city lord's mansion had been cleaned, and Amu was sitting on the city lord's seat.
"Marshal, secret message." When Ammu took the secret message, all the officers became nervous because they saw the golden eagle logo on it, which was Corey's secret message.
"The Fifteenth Army of Kurasoni started a war against Nora Kahu." Corey's letter was very simple, but it explained all the important points. Ammu waved his hand and asked the staff to take out the map. Looking at the map of the mainland, Ammu read it thoroughly.
After half an hour, he said in a cold voice: "Send the order and ask all the people to come to the square."
After the messenger left, Ammu's eyes changed: "I want to massacre the city, but the progress is too slow now, and I want to keep Emperor Nora Kamu awake at night." When the officers heard this, they were all dumbfounded. A middle-aged officer
Suddenly he rushed out and knelt down: "Marshal, please go ahead, and I will follow the orders."
"No, I'll bear this bad name. I've already died once. For Ya Si, I can risk my life. A little glory is nothing." Ammu's cold voice made all the officers feel not afraid, but a kind of fear.
Unspeakably touching.
Just when Amu saw that the officers were unwilling to carry out the order and was about to give another order, a staff officer stood up and said: "Marshal, I have a plan. We can let the people of this city take whatever they like from the nobles' houses.
Then we drive them away, and then we set fire to the city, which will also have the same shocking effect on Emperor Nora Kahun as the slaughter of the city."
Hearing the words of the staff officer, Ammu was stunned for a moment and shook his head gently. When the staff officer saw that Ammu was not satisfied, he immediately said: "The official didn't finish what he said. He also said that all the nobles' heads are hung on the city wall.
On top of the flagpole, their corpses were pinned to the city wall."
"Oh, you guys." Ammu really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He couldn't even think of being a bad person.
Soon, in the square of the small town, all ordinary civilians, including slaves, were rushed here, surrounded by heavily armed soldiers.
"We are going to massacre the city." An officer stood up and frightened many of the people into fainting. But as soon as the officer finished saying these terrible words, he immediately laughed again: "I hope you will cooperate, and I will not let you cooperate in vain."
It’s good to be harmonious.”
Before the officer finished speaking, he saw a large number of people in the square moving in fear. Another officer came over and kicked him: "You idiot, you can't even speak." He beat two war drums hard.
, this senior officer shouted loudly to the people: "Don't be afraid, everyone, I am not going to kill you all, I just want to make Emperor Nora Kamu think that we massacred the city."
They thought they would massacre the city without killing anyone. When the people heard this, half of their original nervousness disappeared. After all, Yasi’s fact that she never harmed civilians was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"We don't want anything belonging to the nobles in this city. Get some quickly and get out of here. Run away. Then we will set fire to this city." After the senior officer finished speaking, he waved and all the soldiers
Left the square.
The officers and soldiers were also tired, hungry, and unwilling to care about these people. They each found a place and food, and began to prepare food. They opened the nobles' wine store, brought out the wine and enjoyed it. They walked around in front of the nobles.
The soldiers just pretended to be invisible to the ordinary people who were coming in and out of their homes.
"Hey, everyone is full and ready to burn the city." An officer looked at the time and saw that it was getting late. Today's order was to attack the next city and rest, so he began to urge the soldiers to take action and prepare firewood.
, oil and other items, and began to burn the city.
When the soldiers walked to the street, they saw that the street was piled with wood, and some people were pouring oil on the firewood pile next to the house.
Seeing the soldiers coming and pouring oil, a man with extremely shabby clothes ran over and said, "Master, please take in the civilians. You can even be a handyman. Being able to become a free man from a slave is better than any treasure."
"
The soldiers didn't know how to answer for a while, and someone immediately reported it to the officer in charge.
"Hey, these people are really strange. We are intruders. Forget it, tell them that we can't take them with us and let them take the treasure and leave. Since the firewood and oil are ready, we will leave the city in ten minutes and start
Light the fire." After the officer finished speaking, he did not dare to delay and immediately went to report to Amu.
The soldiers moved very quickly. You must know that before they set off, the Bronze Army directly under Ammu made a bet with the Golden Thunder Eagle Knight, and then they went to the Nora Kahu Emperor's capital to take out a bottle of the most expensive product in the Yasi Emperor's capital.
Then, all the officers and soldiers on both sides, except for Corey and Amu, participated in this gamble. This was not only the most expensive bottle of wine, but also the glory of the military.
In this competition, no one will show mercy.
It was this kind of motivation that allowed them to run 1,300 kilometers in five days, which can be said to have set a record for the highest speed in mainland China.
"Marshal, there are many ordinary people driving carriages following us." Not long after we left, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion reported to Ammu.
Ammu waved his hand: "Don't worry about them, our mission is the most important. There are still four days left, we must rush to the Nola Kasu City, no matter what the means, no matter the cost, we must destroy the Nora Kashu Imperial City
." Ammu's thoughts were all about Nora Kahu Emperor.
Kerui's approach was completely different from Ammu's. After infiltrating, he separated all the troops. When facing the big city, they attacked together, and when facing the small town, they attacked separately. The same as Ammu, all the nobles in the city were hacked to death, and
The common people were promised heavy rewards and became Kerui's logistical force, pulling the looted items and marching toward the capital of Nora Kahu.
"Marshal, this is not the way to go. The total number of Norakah soldiers who have surrendered has exceeded five times of our soldiers. This does not include the countless ordinary people. If they rebel, especially at a critical moment,
, the consequences will be terrible." An officer was very worried.
After listening to the officer's analysis, Corey asked with disdain: "Back then, you were a civilian soldier, and now you are a general, count, and division commander. Then will you rebel?" This general has been for many years.
He was caught by the northern army for smuggling and was forcibly incorporated into the army as a logistics soldier.
But it took nearly twenty years to become a general.
"Marshal, how could I rebel? I have a family and business in Yasi. When we attacked Tukani, my subordinates were at the front." This general was from Tukani. Hearing what Corey said,
I was suspicious, but I was dissatisfied but I didn't dare to say a word of disrespect.
"Okay, bring the surrendered officers and representatives of the people to see me."
Although the general didn't understand what Corey meant, he still went out to find someone.
After a while, these people came to Corey's tent.
"Ah, I've been very busy recently and I don't have time to see you. You came to me and I haven't given you a meeting gift yet. Everyone, please get up." Corey asked the kneeling people to stand up with a smile on his face.
"Let me give you some titles first. According to your current position, everyone above the squadron commander will be given titles. Starting from baron, then to lord, and what comes next, this, I seem to have forgotten this, who knows what to tell them
Let's talk about our Yasi's title." Corey only remembered that he had been a viscount, and then he continued to be promoted, and he didn't know anything else.
After one officer finished explaining, an officer from the surrender asked: "Marshal Kerui, you are serious about what you said."
"Ha!" Corey laughed dryly: "Who do you think I am, Mr. Corey from Yasi? I know how to talk nonsense."
"I don't dare." The officer also felt that he had made a mistake. Kerui was known as the eighth emperor of the mainland. How could he joke about this kind of thing? He immediately changed his words and asked, "I just don't know what title it will be.
"
"Ah, well, your uniform looks like you are a battalion commander, so let me make you a viscount." At this point, Corey turned around and asked the officer beside him: "Our Yasi, the battalion commander is a viscount, right?"
The officer immediately bowed and replied: "Yes, the main force of our Yasi regular army is at this level."
At this time, all the officers understood Corey's intentions. These officers were all miscellaneous soldiers. Even in Yasi, such battalion commanders were just the lowest class of poor nobles.
The officers were right. When the surrendered troops heard that they were being treated like Yasi's regular army, they were overjoyed. Yasi's army was something they envied. They originally wanted to surrender first and then see how the situation develops.
All thoughts of saying it again disappeared.
For this continent, the strong is everything. Whoever is strong in the kingdom or emperor can attract enough people to be loyal. If the country is rich, there will be a large influx of immigrants to that country.
Seeing the longing eyes of ordinary people, Corey said with a smile: "Let's not talk about the discordant rules of our Yasi immigrants. Even the slaves of Curasoni have heard about it. You don't know it, right? Just press
As for the rules, each family will receive a settlement fee of two magic crystal coins per head."
Hearing Kerui's words, the people's representatives cheered. Kerui waved his hand and suddenly said: "Maybe the village allotted to you is right here. It's hard to say that the name Nora Kahun only existed in the history books that day."
"Sir, as long as you treat us sincerely and let us live a good life, we will take the lead for you." The officer who just spoke said loudly.
Corey didn't care, and pointed in the direction: "Let me occupy a city over there first to see your combat power."
"Yes." The surrendering officer loudly accepted the order and left with the other officers.
Seeing that the front of the tent was empty and there were no more people around, a staff officer approached Corey and whispered: "Marshal, I am worried about their combat power. If they are treated like regular troops, they may cause trouble in the future."
"If there's any trouble, if you're not strong enough, just train. Just follow the training methods of the Amuge Tongren Army. You'll be good after a few years of training." Corey said with a nonchalant expression.
Hearing what Corey said, the officers looked at each other. No one said anything, but they were thinking in their hearts that Yasi's regular army had never heard of that unit being able to withstand that kind of training method. But these officers never expected that,
These soldiers will really become an excellent army in the future, and they will be trained according to the crazy training content that Corina joked about.
A few hours later, at the gate of the largest provincial city between Kerui and Nora Kahu.
"Hey, you are from that unit." The city guards guarding the city saw that the other party was wearing national military uniforms and did not sound the alarm, allowing the nearly 200,000 surrendered troops to approach the city gate.
"Brother, where is your commander? We are returning from the front line and have important things to report."
When the city guards heard this, they immediately sent people to find the governor and the highest officer of the provincial guard.
"Cough!" The governor just put on airs and coughed. But this cough became the last sound in his life. The group of surrender soldiers had been prepared for a long time. In an instant, thousands of crossbow arrows hit the governor and reached him.
Kill all the provincial guard captains and their guards.
"Brother, if you rebel, you can at least be promoted to the fifth level of title. We are also nobles." Among these surrendered soldiers, the highest ranking ones were more than a dozen battalion commanders. All the senior officials were killed, and they were originally
There are very few senior officers in the small town's guard. The officer who had just been made a viscount by Corey said with a happy face, while holding a sword on the other's neck.
"You, you want to rebel." The city guard officer trembled. Just as he was about to shout loudly, he felt his neck heat up and blood spurted out. The battalion commander raised the bloody sword in his hand: "Brothers, get into the city.
, arrest all the nobles, and kill them if they resist."
On one side were more than 20,000 provincial guards, and on the other were nearly 200,000 red-eyed surrender soldiers. The provincial guards did not even resist for ten minutes before they joined in the massacre of the nobles. This group of surrender soldiers knew the rules.
Apart from attacking nobles, he did not attack ordinary people and businessmen at all.
This group of surrendering soldiers also did something excessive. Except for the younger ones, almost all the girls from the noble families were raped before being killed. Of course, this kind of thing did not happen after Kerui and Amu broke into the city.
, some of Yasi's soldiers also did it, maybe because of the number of people. After all, there were more than 200,000 soldiers in this group, so the rape was quite thorough.
"Welcome Prince Kerui to the city." In order to win over Queen Kerui, the surrendered soldiers not only cleaned up the bloodstains in the provincial capital, but also prepared flowers, red carpets, and a band to welcome Kerui at the gate of the city.
Kerui was extremely happy that this group of surrendered soldiers could capture a provincial city. He originally thought that as long as they did not rebel, who would want to make such a big contribution? "Military judge, what level of merit is this?"
When the military judge heard the question, he immediately ran to Corey: "With first-level military merit, officers who lead troops will have an additional 63 points of merit points. And their highest level is battalion commander. According to merit, they can become division commander.
Earldom."
"Okay, okay, I'll seal them now and let them organize the troops into divisions for me."
