Power and Empire Chapter 3676: The Return of the King (13)
Under the blue sky like clear water, the flocks of birds pass through the vast wilderness and rolling mountains and hills, and the vast river that winds like a long snake rushes to the far horizon, known as the eight mountains and ten rivers. The Central European Corridor mainly includes the Central European Baro area, the Feshan area, and the western corner of the Istan Empire. Although this land is not fertile, 80% of the land is mountainous and hilly, and only the areas close to the coastline are present. It is flat, but it is also extremely limited. Therefore, although races continue to rise in this land, there has never been a truly unified kingship. Since the continuation of the Fiya Dynasty thousands of years ago, the length of this piece has reached 1,300. The hilly and undulating land in the city has always been the dividing line between the east and the west. It has also created a mixed situation of many careerists in this corridor.
Two years ago, the empire took advantage of the opportunity to quell the Hungarian rebellion. The army marched into Central Europe and forced the entire Central Europe under the protection of the empire. Then the empire once again beheaded the fees on the Bavarian terraces. The 300,000 troops of the Kingdom of Shan destroyed Feshan, who was known for his tenaciousness, and shocked the entire Central European Barro, and completely opened up this important corridor connecting the east and west ends of the Nordic Barro, so that the empire could quickly assemble its forces to counter the south during the North-South War. Allied forces have laid the foundation for a strategic victory
But from that moment on, the conflict between Central Europe and Baro and the Empire has never stopped. Last year, at the annual meeting of the Empire, the Central Europe and Baro nations united to request the Empire to return the coastal ports, and until the Empire State Chamber of Commerce under the acquiescence of the Empire Sweeping the coast of Central Europe and becoming the fuse for the kingdom of Bion to raise the flag of rebellion against the empire
The emperor did not fail to see the hidden dangers in the Central European Baro region, and even once made a vicious lesson in the Central European Baro countries, and made the Central European Baro region quiet for a while, but with Martin’s 500,000 teeth The iron cavalry marched northward to invade the religious regiment state and kicked off the second North-South war. The empire successively fought the troops stationed in the Central European Baro and Feshan areas to the southern reform regiment state. It was unable to continue to suppress Central European Baro, and there was no military suppression. , The hidden dangers of Central Europe and Baro that have not experienced imperial conquest by force have quickly emerged
Between the veteran forces that were hit hard by the Hungarian Rebellion, and the new factions that suffered little damage during the Hungarian Rebellion, the call for a new order to be established is becoming more and more concentrated
As the former head of Central Europe and Baro, the Ruela Kingdom suffered losses during the Hungarian Rebellion and was also the main battlefield. More than half of the male men died in the war, the entire south was destroyed, and even the king was attacked by the Hungarian arch. In order to make up for the domestic losses and obtain funds to the maximum extent, the shameless King Owit of Rila naturally made the idea of using Rila Kingdom as the special location at the western end of the corridor. Rila Kingdom happened to be Central Obalo. The western gate of China is the only way to enter Central Europe from the Empire. This alone represents what a strong business opportunity. The Kingdom of Rila, Aowei Te, summoned some of the countries of Europe in the New Cold Valley to form the Hanshan Alliance.
The so-called Hanshan Mountain is one of the eight large mountain ranges in Central Europe. The areas along the mountain range are exactly the places where the imperial trade routes must pass. The establishment of this alliance is actually to make the Kingdom of Rila completely monopolize All trade interests that enter Central Europe from the empire
The biggest opponent of the Kingdom of Rila is the new faction headed by the Kingdom of Robles. At the beginning, because the geographical location was not the core position, it suffered little loss in the Hungarian Rebellion, if only in terms of strength. , The Kingdom of Robles has already surpassed the Kingdom of Rila. Now it is even more impossible to watch the King of Rila for the sake of Rila and turn the empire into the golden trade road that the empire has spent so much effort in Central Europe and Baro. Ruila Kingdom’s own money bag, after learning that Ruila King formed the Hanshan Alliance and wanted to firmly grasp the trade corridor, King Robles quickly wooed the four countries including the Sith Kingdom, and formed a tree like Ruila Kingdom. Yin Alliance
The two alliances simultaneously filed a complaint with the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs for destroying the corridor trade roads and occupying their own controlled areas
The focal point of the dispute between the two alliances is the Sulaf Terrace, twenty miles northwest of the Kingdom of Bion. The Sulaf Terrace is the periphery of the Grand Duchy of Sulaf within the Central European Baro forces. It is a hilly area and has always been It was harassed by the Kingdom of Bjorn, so even the Duke of Sulaf himself did not take this fast enclave too much
"It's a place within thirty miles, like a chezi stuck between several areas in the kingdom of Bion, like a biscuit held by the hands of the Bion people, which can be swallowed by the Bion people with their mouths open, such a region Even the garrisoned soldiers are a waste. "As the master, Duke Sulaf did not expect that, in the blink of an eye, the Sulaf mesa, which was like a wasteland, became the red son in the eyes of the nations. The main reason was that the Bion’s attitude towards the empire The flag of rebellion was raised and the business route that had passed through the Kingdom of Bion had to change the road. Most of the caravans chose to pass through the Sulaf Terrace. Under such circumstances, the Sulaf Terrace was hard to live without, King Owit of Rila He personally discussed with Duke Sulaf four times, and Duke Sulaf finally agreed that Duke Sulaf agreed to block the southern side of the Sulaf Terrace to the Hanshan Alliance at a rental price of 100,000 imperial gold per year. This indicates that the Kingdom of Rila will be The entire business route has been controlled. From then on, it is inevitable that the Hanshan Alliance will become the dominant player in the Central European and Baro region
And what irritated King Owit of Rila was that while the Duke of Sulaf leased the Sulaf Terrace to the Hanshan Alliance, he also privately leased part of the eastern side of the platform to the Kingdom of Robles. The Shade Alliance, as a result, appeared on a platform with a width of 30 miles. However, two alliances controlled the situation at the same time. Chaos was brewing, and the era gradually showed its magnificent side. While making some people aggressively forge ahead, they also It makes other people feel anxious and worried. They move forward in places where people don’t pay attention to. The chaos of the sacred capital, everyone thinks that the empire will inevitably be in a frenzy for a while
In such circumstances, the struggle for control of Central Europe is still coming as promised after all.
An officer from the Kingdom of Robles, wearing a Bjorn uniform, rode a war horse to the top of the hill, his eyes scanned the field below, and several cavalrymen walked down the green hillside. During this process, as always, he kept his gaze towards the distant village for a while. It was supposed to be a misty scene, but at this moment, it was rare and peaceful. The fields in the distance were also full of weeds
Beside a big rock on the edge of the hillside, the cavalry officer raised his hand, "Everyone is up to their spirits to see if there are anyone else in the village"
"Captain, I have checked. There is no one in the village. The latest mark at the intersection is also a few days ago. It seems that the news that the Rila people are about to launch an offensive may be true."
Hearing the news brought back by the previous kiss, the young officer's eyes flashed brightly, and the corners of his mouth stretched out his tongue and licked the chapped lips below. Behind him, several entourage cavalry were also a pair. The expression of eagerness to try, not the slightest fear of facing the massive attack of the old-style powerful Ruila Army, from the moment when both sides sent troops to the Sulaf Terrace, the soldiers on both sides knew very well that this is a war that must be fought. The winner will get commercial profits for at least ten years later, while the loser will lose control of the trade route in the following ten years. Not only will they have to provide the other party with high tolls, they will even lose ten years later. It is possible to compete with each other again, and with the passage of time, the stronger the stronger, the weaker the weaker. It may not take fifty years for the winner to force the loser to surrender!
"I hope the Rila people will not let us down, otherwise it will be too boring"
This young cavalry officer is tall and tall, looks at the vast ground ahead, and mutters in a low voice.
His appearance, seriousness and rigid character do not give people too much intimacy. There is an unabashed spirit all over his body. This kind of breath is quite common in the young Robles army. , Young people are always the ones who are most prone to rushing with blood, and they naturally feel that they should break the old order and let them flex their muscles
At the beginning of the Hungarian Rebellion, I don’t know how many famous generals fell and how many kingdoms were broken. The old order of Central Europe has disappeared. It is ridiculous that the kingdoms of Rila are not willing to retreat from their previous positions, and they still dream about it. It is ridiculous to maintain through these small means. It is already powerless to resist the empire's encroachment, and is unwilling to give up the position. Then it is a real battle. Without the empire's intervention, the Kingdom of Rila and Luo The Perth Kingdom has a fun battle, and then decide who is eligible to be the master of this corridor
With its strong financial resources, the Kingdom of Robles has expanded its domestic standing army from 70,000 to 150,000 this year, and it has also recruited youths aggressively. At the beginning, the Kingdom of Robles was suppressed by the imperial army. Not going to the Empire in person to apologize has always been regarded as a shame by the soldiers of the Robles Kingdom
Subsequently, the Kingdom of Robles used the current military power to protect the Kingdom of Robles as an excuse. Princess Robles proposed to form a youth army. The Princess of Robles personally called out and gave ordinary rewards. Twice the number of soldiers. In just two months, the number of recruits was 26,000. All of them were young men under the age of 30. They were full-blooded and received almost the best treatment and treatment in the same army of Central Europe. The most rigorous training, and as a young army, these young people in the Kingdom of Robles are in the golden stage of their lives, from the body to the heart is full of desire to show their fists,
In the eyes of these young Robles officers, the mesa in front of them is undoubtedly too small, making them feel like they can’t let go of their hands and feet. Look at the empire’s battle in the sacred capital area of the southern religious group. For more than a hundred miles, hundreds of thousands of armies fought each other, and what was decided was the direction of the entire Southern Obaro in the next ten years. That is the place where men should fight. Compared with the war that broke out in the south, the Sulaf Mess in front of you is only It can be regarded as a small place
But even in a small place, the battle is just as cruel and bloody,
It’s getting dark, although they are prepared~IndoMTL.com~Rila’s offensive still makes the arrogant, self-confessed sons of the plane, Robes, the officers are stunned, this time they are on the flanks. The attacker was the Second Recruitment Corps of the Kingdom of Rila, commander Ansug, a veteran of Rila from the Hungarian Rebellion after fighting with the empire. He was definitely a figure forged from iron and fire. He judged Rob After the defense force of the Sri Lankan army, he looked cautiously and ordered a full-line attack.
The huge stone sling roared, and the long-armed stone-throwing machine kept throwing big chunks of rocks, smashing large swaths of rocks towards the top of the city, because it was night, Robes guarding on the city wall The army suffered heavy casualties, the panting operator, the upper body was naked, but it was steaming, more than one hundred thousand ants flocked to the defense line of the Rila Army, the sound of shouting, the blood of the fighting covered everything, and the battle was the most central part of the battle. The lot was breached twice and changed hands. The soldiers in the front fought desperately and did not retreat. A little bit further behind was the supervising team holding a long knife. In the faint light of the flame, the archer of the Rila Kingdom shouted hard. One, two, three, shoot." Bows and arrows shot from various distances form a scene like a metal waterfall, and when the bow and arrow are raised, the stones thrown out under the night are like a huge beat, when the beat falls. , Like fallen leaves rolled up by the autumn wind, in the faint light. Ping-a bang, amazing debris splashed out
