Different World Development Manual Chapter 44: I found 1 sister paper
"The Fortress of Mantuen is lost!?"
Jon looked at the messenger with a horror.
Matthew’s letter requesting support had just arrived, and within half an hour, the news of the loss of the Mantuen Fortress reached Jon’s hands.
Jon never thought that An Rui would have captured Duran for no reason, and then passed through the Varua Forest without knowing it, and attacked the Mantuen Fortress.
As a result, the line of defense established on the northern bank of the Alan River was basically broken.
Although Jon still has 110,000 troops in his hands and 80,000 are stationed on Brie Island, for Jon, the whole situation is quite bad now.
The morale of the Carinthian army is like a rainbow, advancing all the way.
The fall of the fortress of Mantuen means that the gateway to the north of Carinthia was opened. At the same time, the supplies of the Carinthia army can also be directly along the Iris River and reach the fortress of Mantuen by boat, which is the north of Carinthia. The runner-up is resupplied.
The only thing Jon expects now is that the Norman Emperor of the North can intervene in this matter.
Although he has 110,000 troops, Jon still feels a little powerless to deal with An Rui's 40,000-man Carinthian army.
Since the defense line on the north bank of the Aran River collapsed, Jon immediately adjusted his strategy and transferred all the troops on the north bank defense line to the east bank of the Munster River.
It is hoped that the island of Brie, located in the northeast of the confluence of the Munster and Aran rivers, will form a new line of defense.
At the same time, Jon immediately ordered the nobles in the Duke of Cape to erect walls to clear the fields, harvest all the grain that can be harvested, and harvest or burn the grain that cannot be harvested in advance, and all tortoise in the city. Preparation for a protracted war.
Jon believed that if the fighting continued, the Norman Emperor would definitely intervene.
On Carinthia's side, An Rui, who has taken the Mantuen Fortress, is now mobilizing Carinthia's army.
The Marquis of Duran retained only 2,000 troops, and the troops on the south bank of the Aran River also successively arrived at the Mantuen Fortress by boat.
At this time, An Rui's force reached more than 40,000 men again.
However, if you want to use more than 40,000 people to attack the island of Brie, I am afraid that there will be a lot of casualties.
After all, there is no Varua Forest near the island of Brie to cover the army and fight surprise attacks.
As for An Rui who earned the gate of Cayman Thun Fortress, I am afraid that Jon will stare at him firmly, and guard against An Rui from opening the gate of Burri Island.
Since the island of Brie is so difficult to attack, and Jon has adopted the policy of vertical walls and clearing the country, following the military advice of Guan Lin and Guan Fei, An Rui simply waved his hand and used the strategy of encircling the city from the countryside to move towards The Duke of Capet attacked everywhere.
Puri Island waited for it to close the city gate, and there was an astronomical amount of food consumed by the 80,000 defenders.
An Rui broke through the Munster East Coast line of defense, leaving only 10,000 people stationed outside the island of Brie, staring at the defenders in the city, which also added tremendous pressure to Jon invisibly.
The rest of the 30,000 troops have been smashing the city all the way in the domain of the Duke of Cape Cape.
An Rui led the 5000 Carinthian army, upstream along the Munster River, and began to attack Tria, the northwest gateway of the Duke of Cape Cape.
The main city of the Duke of Waya is in the upper reaches of Tria, so Tria is very important to both Capet and Waya.
The battle for the city of Tria only lasted for 2 days. Under repeated artillery shelling, Tria's defenders finally played the white flag exhausted.
The Carinthian army also happily drove into the city after paying the painful price of 22 people.
"Your Majesty, we found a lot of food and grass in Tria City!"
The vertical wall clearing policy allowed Capet’s army to collect a large amount of grain and grass for use by the nobles and soldiers in the city.
The civilians in the city, as well as the civilians outside the city, have a very difficult time during this period.
Their food was not only handed over by the Cape Army, but their immature dealers in the field were also destroyed by the Cape Army.
Those who dare not to speak can only kneel on the ground, wailing.
The Duke of Capet will be An Rui's territory after all, and these miserable farmers and civilians will also be An Rui's people in the future.
An Rui immediately ordered: "Open the warehouse and put the grain! Distribute all the grain in the city to the civilians near Tria!"
"Yes!"
An Rui's actions immediately reaped the hearts and minds of the residents of Tria. As for those nobles, although An Rui wanted to use the public trial assembly to criticize the civilians.
But when I think of this era, it seems that there is nothing "wrong" in what the nobles did.
If you criticize them, it won't be enough.
An Rui simply patrolled the farmland near Tria, being close to the people, and instructed the farmer's uncle to cultivate, imparting China’s advanced farming experience, and immediately let her image in Tria The hearts of the residents became bright.
Tria is located on the Munster River, so the soil is quite fertile.
But at this time, on the river outside Tria, a large wooden stake was floating down, on which a woman who passed out was lying on her stomach.
A soldier from Carinthia yelled: "There are people on the river!"
An Rui immediately looked over. One seemed to be a woman. An Rui waved his hand: "Go and get that person up."
The Munster River is not turbulent and relatively stable.
After receiving the order, several Carinthian soldiers jumped out of the river without saying a word, swam over, and with two strokes, the man on the driftwood was picked up.
Just listen to the few Carinthian soldiers who rescued people not far away saying: "I still breathe, I'm still alive."
"Why, such a beautiful woman, why did she commit suicide?"
An Rui didn't have much interest at first, but when she heard that the beautiful woman committed suicide, she suddenly became interested, and she was also happy to watch it. After all, she suddenly caught someone up during the battle, so she leaned over and watched.
It's okay not to look at it, I was shocked when I saw it.
This woman has beautiful long blond hair, a hint of redness on her delicate face, and her soft lips are slightly purplish.
Uchimura, an ordinary warrior, was completely wet and stuck to her body, revealing her pleasing curves.
Mistweed, Margaret! ?
An Rui, who was at war with Cape, didn't pay much attention at all, and the political situation in the north had become turbulent.
Because of Margaret's assassination and disappearance, the conflict between the Northern Army and the Imperial Army was completely aroused. Norman has fought with Freya and Sisi's armies several times.
Norman not only wanted to avenge Margaret's assassination, but also severely cut off the rebellious lord.
The Queen of the North, Cici, was to repay Norman's revenge for being sold by Norman in the war of the expedition to the south.
As the war broke out between the two sides, Cici discovered that Norman seemed to be a quail at all~IndoMTL.com~ That guy used to pretend to be a quail in front of herself.
With the reminder from the Duchess of Arnotay, Cici realized the true face of Norman. This guy is a very shrewd existence.
The soldiers on the western front of Norman have already arrived under the main city of the Duke of Tuckland, and the Duke of Tuckland has repeatedly asked the Queen of the North and Duchess of Arnotay for help.
But An Rui doesn't care much about these things, he only cares about how to take the Duke of Capet down.
Looking at Marguerite, who was wet in front of the river, he quickly pulled away the Carinthia soldiers, rushed up, took out the bath towel in the storage bag of the space, and wrapped Marguerite tightly. Strictly.
Then he gently hugged Marguerite, turned around and walked to his barracks outside the city, and at the same time told the soldiers around him: "We picked up a woman by the river, we can’t tell Anyone."
"Yes yes yes!"
Looking at your majesty Wang Jue holding a man and returning to the military account, the soldiers suddenly showed a look that we all understand. We do things, your majesty, don't worry.
An Rui gently placed Marguerite on the bed, and immediately let the soldiers outside the door guard the camp. No one could enter without his own orders.
Of course, An Rui didn't intend to drive, but hurriedly turned on the radio station and contacted Guan Lin in Fort An Rui.
"Fuck, Miss Guan, something big happened!
When I attacked Tria, I picked up an empire queen! "
Find it?
An Rui's amount of information is really a bit big. Under Guan Lin's questioning, An Rui slowly poured out the beginning and the end of the matter.
Guan Lin's reply soon came from the radio: "Very well, I immediately arranged for a helicopter to come over and pick you and Margaret back!"
"Good, good, good."
