Power and Empire Chapter 863: Dylans’s big twist (5)
In the dark night, the bonfire of the 100,000 Nord army camp is like the endless starlight in the sky, shining on the body of the tired soldier, the bonfire supported by wood, the thick hot soup is scorched in the black. There is a slurping and seductive aroma in the marching pot,
The soldiers were either seven or eight, or five or six sitting together, some chatting and laughing quietly, some sitting alone, looking at the starry night sky above their heads in a daze,
With the sound of cooking, these soldiers quickly ran towards the direction of the marching pot
"Give me, I am the first to arrive!"
An agile young soldier raised the wooden bowl in his hand and couldn't wait to shout to the cook next to the pot. Before his voice fell, he was pushed away by a strong man behind him, his body choked back. To the other side
"Get out of the way, you thin chicken! Don't you know that you have to pay attention to your identity when you eat!" The strong man smiled and stretched a big wooden bowl comparable to a small pot in front of the cook.
"Lang Disu, don't bully people too much! Be careful with me. ◣Please enter m and provide the fastest chapter reading! ◢..." the young man who was pushed away scolded angrily
"What are you careful about? Find out, you are only a second-level legion, even if you eat, you should be behind us! "The strong man curled his lips in disdain, and said with contempt." This is the order of the King! Do you know, this is Wang Ling, if you want to be beheaded, I will not be stingy to cut off your chicken head myself!"
"Haha..." The soldiers all around let out a roar of laughter, and the humiliated young man froze there, his face flushed aggrievedly. Like him, some silent soldiers were full of anger and dare. I'm so angry that I can't speak,
The war against the Falcon Dynasty has lasted for 18 days. Starting from the breakthrough of Mecca, the southern barrier of the Falcon Dynasty, the advancement of the Nord’s army is like a carriage stuck in the mud. The slowness is a bit unacceptable.
When the army gathered in Mecca and went south, it was discovered that the Falcon army, which was expected to fight desperately in Tyre, had already withdrawn from this area ahead of time, and the large abandoned area stretched from Tyre to Dyllens. In the northern part of the country, the hundreds of miles along the road, dozens of villages and 5 cities along the way, before the Nord army rushed eagerly, they should have been burned by the retreating Vikya people.
More than a hundred thousand Tyre people seem to have completely evaporated. Whether it is a bustling central town or a remote rural country, the Nords see only worthless ruins and towns A large pile of grain waste left in the center,
That is the winter wheat that is about to mature in the field. If it were not for this war, it would enter the mature season in about a month. There will be plenty of rain this winter. Many people think that It will be a good harvest year, but the sudden war disrupted all of this. Because there are too many, it is inconvenient to transport all of them. It is impossible to find so many carriages for a time, so they are all asked to pull out and concentrate. Burned down in the central square
Such a situation is simply a huge disaster for many Nord soldiers who are holding on to plunder. They are just ordinary soldiers, what kind of kingdoms, what glorious things, for them, they are far inferior The gold and silver goods came directly, and the whole continent knows that the Falcon Dynasty is a very rich area,
Just like before the war, in order to improve the morale of the soldiers, the Nord officers instilled in them all day, "That is a luxurious land full of gold and silver. Even if you grab a handful of dirt from there, it will be inside. Flowing golden luster! Come, take your tomahawks and let us go together, glory, woman, wealth, what else do you want? The woman of the Vecchia Falcon? Well, this should be for those adults!"
"Haha!" The soldiers laughed at the bottom of their hearts, but now, this kind of sight has long ceased to exist, because they have not seen anything related to wealth. What they see every day is ruins, ruins . i. . . . ,
"How many ruins did you find today? Three! No, I found one! You don't know me, our captain also sent someone to mark it so that no one would say we were lying" or even When meeting with familiar companions, they will use this to tease each other, and then they will laugh with helplessness
The difference between the soldiers’ morale, which is gradually deteriorating, is the dispute between high-level generals about logistical needs. The Nord troops in this attack are all elites in the country. According to the original plan of the Ministry of Military Affairs, what is needed for this expedition The huge military ration is about 2 million tons,
Part of it can be solved by the original kingdom inventory. According to the report of the Ministry of the Interior, although the southern part of Nord was also affected by the drought last year, the Szatusco Corridor in the grain-producing area obtained from the Swadians,
As well as the rare bumper harvest in the Suluo region in ten years, the total grain output of the Nord Kingdom has increased by as much as 20%, and the harvest is more than 2.5 million tons more than in previous years. ,
Except for part of staying in the country, it can fully support the early needs of this war, and for the other part, the Nordic Military Department proposed that it can be obtained from the occupied area. The time of the kingdom’s attack was chosen by the southern winter. When the wheat is about to be harvested, southern Vicia has always been a well-known grain-producing area on the mainland. After the cold winter and heavy snow, the hardy southern wheat will enter the maturity period. As long as these areas are occupied, are you afraid that there will be no rations? ?
With this plan, King Agrork of Nord planned this surprise attack on the Falcon Dynasty.
However, the early results were not smooth. The stubborn resistance of the Falcon army and the strong walls and clearings along the way made the Nord army's logistical burden increasingly heavy. Then came the Falcon army’s attack on the south.
Everything was disrupted. A large number of refugees came from the coastal areas. In order to resettle these people, Nordland had to squeeze out a part of the extremely limited stock of food, otherwise hundreds of thousands of refugees would be hungry. The occurrence of riots will cause immeasurable catastrophic consequences in Nordic,
In order to solve the follow-up shortage of rations, Yagrork can only order limited rations to be distributed according to the level of the corps. This leads to the fact that the first-level main battle corps can solve two meals a day, while the second-level corps can only eat one a day. Pause,
The soldiers were full of resentment about this. Everyone was desperate. Why would they eat one less meal than others and not have enough food? How can we fight this battle!
Of course, it is not these soldiers who are the most saddened, but the army led by Crimson Erdo to attack Zhiva Chaze,
His army is the farthest away from the base camp, so every time the food needed, the logistics department needs to send a horse team to transport it separately,
But under the gaze of countless generals of Nord, these consignments are often not delivered to the side, they will be stopped by hungry soldiers, or they often wait until their own horse team rushes to the logistics officer. , The answers were all "I'm sorry, the last bit of grain was dragged away"
In order to compete for food, there have been a lot of frictions between Nord’s legions. Some legions even secretly organized food grabbing teams to intercept food from other regiments. Some of the Nord’s heavy infantry were tall and strong. Wearing a heavy armor with thorns, holding his awesome huge axe in his hand, guarding outside the logistics department like a door god,
Any wagon that carries food must pass under their hungry and bloodshot eyes. These heavy tomahawks who are mainly responsible for siege assault missions are undoubtedly veterans of this kind of thing.
Once they find a target that can be plundered, they will use their own physical advantages to rush them and drive them down like a city wall, and then quickly send people to pull the food away.
If you want to take it back, you must have the courage to face the shimmering battle axe. The traditional brave thinking of the Nords has undoubtedly contributed to the spread of this power grabbing behavior. In these regiments who like to grab food from the army Among them, Nossaenvik’s Second Army is the most prominent,
He was originally an elite unit second only to the First Army. In this attack, he suffered a lot of losses. Most of his generals were unruly and rebellious.
Before Notheanvik became the commander of the legion, most of these grumpy generals were the stingers of the legions, because the fourth legion was completely annihilated in Stemonido, in order to supplement the four guards. For the vacancy, the Nord Military Affairs Department unified the thorns of these various corps under one corps, and appointed Kyoto Kannosianvic, who is known for his cold personality, as the commander of the corps
What kind of generals, what kind of subordinates are there~IndoMTL.com~ From the rampant grabbing of food under its command, it can be seen that Nossaenvik is not a good person, and has been coordinated by the Ministry of Military Affairs several times Meeting,
Faced with the food stolen, Northernvik also dared to stand up directly, shook his face and said with disdain, "You still want to go back what was stolen, you are still not a Nord! "Often the other person will be fainted by the anger of this sentence. I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people. Besides, the person who said this sentence is still a man who is a little more beautiful than a woman.
Later, there were a lot of robs, and everyone reached a consensus. The second legion’s members were all bastards, but the most **** was this Northean Vic. This is a shame, even your Majesty Agrolk. The guy who shook his head, who called this guy’s sister is your Majesty’s favorite princess!
In the dark night, some figures lurking in the bushes are moving forward carefully, watching the bonfires on the mountain walls in the distance, these people’s eyes start to get excited
"It's our army, look! That's the battle flag of our Nords!" A leading dark shadow whispered with excitement, following his fingers, everyone saw a Nord style embroidered The banner of the battle axe is flying in the night wind,
