Chapter 47 - 10 years
The whole Earl of Lodz was turned upside down by Zhou Ming, and it did n’t take long for the glorious monster of the Grand Collar to be fully exposed to all forces of the Kingdom of Wallis.
A rebellious land with only the highest lord and no subordinate knight underneath.
A regime of power and a development model of workers, peasants, and commerce is completely new and can even be described as a ridiculous place of rebellion.
A rebellious land where a farmer army is recruited and trained to build a farmer army.
A rebellious, collusive thief, wantonly plundering property from other territories, murdering noble lords and knights in a rebellious land!
At all costs, the nobles, peasants, and thieves on this rebellious land must be uprooted one by one, and weeds must be thoroughly removed!
Ten years, seven times of siege.
Worris, in this small kingdom, has been in constant war for many years.
But during the seven rounds of encirclement and suppression, the Grand Collar, who was at the center of the storm eye, was not crushed by the storms one after another, but instead won a total victory in the seven rounds of encirclement!
The area controlled by the Grand Collar also expanded from the original small Grand Collar to the entire Earl of Lodz, then the Earl of Merlin in the north, the Lord of Pamel and Yokan in the west, and occupied the Kingdom of Wallis Half of the country to the east.
Seeing that the rebellious forces are getting stronger and stronger, and that the territory they occupy is getting bigger and bigger, and that more people and property have been robbed by the robbers, King Herian has to take out all the treasures in the treasury and wishes At the cost of ceding the four counts, he sought help from the Churin Kingdom to the west, and borrowed a knighthood of 2,000 reloaded knights from the Qiulin Kingdom.
With King Herian, the 3000 barbarian mercenaries recruited from the Northern Savage Kingdom, and the few 500 knights left in the country, a terrorist army of 5500 people rushed to the core of the rebel area ——Grand City (Gran City, a city expanded from Rose Town and Grand Collar Castle).
In response, Zhou Ming had already prepared to issue a general convening order in the area under his control. Within ten days, a team of 5,000 elite crossbowmen, 10,000 elite pikemen and 3,000 elite soldiers were drawn A huge army including light cavalry advanced towards the decisive battle location.
Before the decisive battle, the “Alibaba band of thieves” led by robber Jero had already taken a step ahead, wreaking havoc in the area controlled by King Herian, cutting off the grain transportation line of the crusade army, setting up traps and ambushing a lot The crusade soldiers on the march caused heavy losses to their staff and morale plummeted.
The final decisive battle between the two armies was on an open and flat grassland, called the Tingen Plateau. It is a green and yellow grassland.
Ceima stood in a highland, dressed in a uniform, Zhou Ming saw the lineup of the king’s crusade across the mountainside.
“10 cavalry phalanxes, about 2,200 people, 15 mercenary phalanxes, about 3,000 people, less than 5,000 people in total, more than a few points, not too difficult to challenge.”
Zhou Ming pouted, facing the military force enough to destroy a small kingdom, he expressed disdain.
Of course, he can say such big words, and naturally has the confidence to say such big words.
One of the sources of confidence is that he has worked hard for 13 years to build. After dozens of **** battles, he has no defeat. On the contrary, the invincible tiger and wolf army has become stronger and stronger.
The Tiger and Wolf Corps was happy when they heard the war, and the order was swiftly gathered. As soon as it went to the battlefield, it desperately grabbed the head and competed for military power. Then from Zhou Ming, in exchange for the house, slaves, knighthood and bounty, everything was plain text. Price tag, one head corresponds to one reward, the head is limited, get more.
Secondly, Zhou Ming ’s enthusiasm came from the good development momentum of Grand City and the surrounding control areas. The agricultural output has increased year by year, and the rapid development of industry and commerce is full of vitality. The population base of more than 150,000, the extremely prosperous market economy, let the annual collection Various taxes are sufficient to support an elite army of more than 20,000 people.
Plus the year before, he sent a group of thieves to occupy a medium-sized iron ore mine in the border area adjacent to the Iron Fort Kingdom. The Grand Collar, who has a stable source of ore, used blast furnace steelmaking for less than two years. The steel output was suddenly increased tenfold from the original less than 100 tons per year to 1,000 tons per year.
With enough steel, and the excellent craftsmen recruited by Zhou Ming, the quality of the armor he provided to the Grand Collar Defense Force naturally improved several grades than before, such as the crossbow soldiers, and the internal steel was completely replaced. The spring steel crossbow has increased its range by 50% and doubled its lethality!
Long Spearmen changed into heavy heavy spearmen wearing plate armour and holding steel spears after a full facelift.
As for the light cavalry, it is even more amazing. After fully replacing the chest armor and saber, each knight is equipped with two small steel crossbows, and the melee and long-range combat capabilities have been greatly improved, and they can even use their own good Maneuverability, under the same number of people, kite tactics can be used to kill the knight.
Therefore, regardless of the number, equipment, morale, logistics and other aspects, they are better than Zhou Ming. There is no suspense in the final victory of this decisive battle.
“The brave soldiers, it’s time to gain military power and glory, get your weapon in your hand, and attack!”
Pulled out the saber around his waist, and Zhou Ming gave the order to attack.
“Boom boom, boom boom, boom boom …”
In the sound of drums of war, UU reads www.uukankanshu.com The thick lines of soldiers moving down from the mountainside, like a row of walls, at a regular pace, licking their dry lips, revealing a cruel grin, toward the front of “military merit” “Go”.
Under the sunlight, looking at the spear forest of the iron wall flashing brightly across the opposite side, like a huge wave sweeping from the side, toward the weak “body” of his own side, when the face came, many of King Herian’s army condemned Soldiers, trembling with fear.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
One large and one small two torrents of steel suddenly collided together, sparks burst, blood raging, broken limbs broken, the stars fell to the ground.
Is a campaign. The “Tiger Wolf Corps” in Grand City, at the cost of less than 2,000 casualties, annihilated this king’s crusade army with more than 5,200 people, and won the last anti- crusade campaign.
After the battle of the Thingen Plateau, Zhou Ming did not stop marching, but went west along the Bella River into the fertile and fertile Bella Plains, preparing to win the city he had long coveted in the center of the plains— —Wadows City.
However, shortly after Zhou Ming ’s Tiger and Wolf Corps besieged Wards City, he had not launched a general attack. A mysterious messenger from Gran City hurriedly sent a secret letter and asked him to immediately stop the military operation and announce the full The army retreated and quickly returned to Gran City.
“Donny, Downy, you should be your lord, and enjoy your glory and wealth. I will help you develop your economy, train soldiers, and expand your territory … You just have to sit back and enjoy its achievements, why do you want to make you blind? What about tossing? Indeed, I promised Baron Connor that it will not harm you, but you have achieved this excessive degree. What reason do I have to be soft-hearted? “
Zhou Ming’s calm water-like eyes flashed a cold killing intent!
