Gate of Revelation Chapter 224: [Competitive copy] (roll for monthly pass!)
Chapter 224 [Competitive Copy]
In the cavalry's comment just now, a keyword was captured by Chen Xiaolian. ※ % ※ % ,
Harold, the false king.
Plus I saw the red double lion flag of the Norman family ...
It's not hard to speculate.
This history, Chen Xiaolian probably said about spare tires before.
It should be October in 1066 AD.
Before, something happened in England. The last king died of illness, but no sons.
During his lifetime, the king promised two different people to pass the throne to the other.
One of them is the ancestor of Xianyin, the then owner of the Norman family, the great nobleman with the title of duke, and William is the cousin of the dead king.
The other person is the wife and brother of the deceased king, the little sister-in-law, whose name is Harold.
Both of these guys claim to have the power to inherit the throne.
But the king's little sister-in-law, Harold, was a native of England and was in London, so he approached the water tower and immediately inherited the throne after the king died.
The ancestor of Xianyin, the Duke of William, forced him to be in France, and Normandy was his territory.
It was annoyed that William was annoyed by his opponent to get the throne first, so he waged a war and invaded England from France with his army across the sea!
And this is ...
Throne battle!
"William? Xianyin's ancestors?" The tire looked at the spare tire, and the spare tire remembered one thing: "I remember we discussed before, since Shi Zhongjian is kept in the hands of the Norman family ... so very It is possible that the legend of King Arthur is based on the life of William ...
"Yes." Chen Xiaolian nodded: "This Duke William is indeed a very powerful character, his military talent is very outstanding. And he was the first king to unite the whole of England by force. So, I also guess , The later story of King Arthur is a legend created based on him. "
Pause, Chen Xiaolian slowly said, "Looking at this way now ... It seems that the system is set up to automatically assign us to the camp of the Norman family. In other words, we should be Xianyin Ancestor, soldier in the army of Her Majesty the Duke of William. "
"So, the so-called throne battle is that we have to help William defeat Harold and take the throne? We have to guarantee that William cannot die?" The tire immediately thought of this.
"I think so." Chen Xiaolian nodded.
At this point, Chen Xiaolian frowned suddenly.
If so ...
This copy task seems too difficult.
Because ... the last ending in history is William's victory. Not only won the war, but also killed Harold on the battlefield!
In this case, even if the three of them and the spare tire of the tire do not take the shot, they just stand by and watch the show. According to the course of history, the result is the same.
William won the throne.
So ... this copy mission is too easy.
Chen Xiaolian doesn't think he has the good luck of Xia Xiaolei, he can just go through the copy once when he sleeps casually.
...
The system automatically assigned Chen Xiaolian to the army of William.
William's army is divided into several parts. He himself is a Norman legion owned by the Duke of Normandy. And his two allies, the Brittany Legion. Both the Flemish Legion and the latter were the lords of France at that time, and William was promised to help them.
William also recruited a large number of mercenaries to help him fight.
Obviously, the identity assigned to the three Chen Xiaolians is one of those mercenaries.
The sheepskin flag on the carriage seems to be the status symbol of a mercenary group.
Therefore, the three Chen Xiaolian did not get much hindered when they entered the barracks of the military camp by carriage. The guards checked their identity and the carriage symbolically, and waved to let go.
Inquiring all the way, I knew that the place where the mercenaries were stationed was in the southwest corner of Muzhai.
The mercenaries are obviously mostly black people, and the tents here are also very diverse, and they look messy.
Chen Xiaolian came all the way. I also saw some mercenary soldiers puffing their pants right next to the tent.
He even saw that not far away, there was a fire pot hanging by the fireside, which was cooking some dinner.
Some soldiers brought water from a river in the distance.
This is a medieval era, and the army is far from having the strict discipline of later generations.
So Chen Xiaolian can see people roaming all the way, and some soldiers who drink alcohol are singing and jumping.
Dirty soldiers are fighting in the mud, and there are people betting beside them.
It's not like a military camp, but a vegetable market.
Most mercenaries are worn and worn. Few people wear metal armor, most of them use leather armor, and even some people wear thick cloth robes directly, but there are many layers on the body. Wrapped in several layers.
A few moments after entering the camp, I saw several soldiers wearing uniforms coming up.
These soldiers also have shields on them, which are clearly the two lion badges of the Norman family. Obviously these are regular troops of the Norman Legion.
These people come to collect food.
The mercenaries have assumed the duties of the food collection team, and according to their regulations, the collected food must be turned in half to the Norman Legion.
Chen Xiaolian knew the news and immediately sighed.
This William is so cruel!
He is not the king of England yet, he is an invader.
And he allowed these mercenaries to rob the land in England, and then rob the merchandise, and the mercenaries could get half of it, and they must pay half of it.
This is equivalent to the fact that he has all the military expenses left.
Use the property of the enemy's people to pay part of the military expenses.
It's just too cunning.
In fact, what Chen Xiaolian didn't know was that William did it harder.
The reason why he could draw such a huge army, follow him across the sea to invade England, and even pull the allies of the other two legions, is that he made a promise.
If he takes the throne of England. Sealing some of the land in England to these allies and nobles only requires them to be loyal to themselves and recognize themselves as kings.
This is tantamount to ... holding the enemy's property to pay the military expenses of the war!
These soldiers took the only half bag of grain from Chen Xiaolian's carriage and Chen Xiaolian did not stop.
Probably the obedient gesture made the other party very satisfied. The soldiers also pointed out Chen Xiaolian and told him where his tent was.
It's a very shabby little tent. It can barely squeeze two people side by side. If it is three people, it can only sit.
The fire at the door has gone out. There is only a pile of ashes. What makes Chen Xiaolian frown most is that there is a smell of pissing.
"The health situation in the medieval army was horrible." As a military fan, spare tires couldn't help voicing.
Chen Xiaolian glanced at the spare tire: "Historically, although William ’s army won the war, dysentery broke out in the army before the war broke into London.
"I'm not surprised at this hygienic condition. They drink raw water directly." Beitai sighed.
"This is the Middle Ages. Productivity is low." Chen Xiaolian frowned and shook his head: "To drink boiling water, you must burn the fire. To burn a fire, you must send a large number of people to cut firewood. Such a huge army, if all drinks boiling water, use it every day Firewood needs to add a huge amount of human and material resources. Do you think such things as drinking water can only be changed by the coach's order? "
This small tent, Chen Xiaolian, and others just looked at it and were not interested in digging in.
They just sat outside, and no one seemed to be around anyway.
Obviously, this small mercenary group of the three Chen Xiaolian. It's not eye-catching here, and their location is remote. No one came to fight, and no one looked at them more.
"Let's discuss it now."
The three sat down around the fire. Chen Xiaolian was lazy and went to find firewood. He removed a wooden board directly from the carriage, squeezed it into several pieces by hand, and set fire.
Chen Xiaolian looked at the spare tire in front of him: "Let's discuss it. What should we do next."
"We don't know much about this history." The tire shook his head: "It's up to you to decide. You are the head of the group. We execute your orders ... small faces, we all believe in you."
"Yes, head. I have long acknowledged that you are the real head, and I will execute whatever you say." The words of spare tires warmed Chen Xiaolian's heart.
He remembered that when fighting in front of the museum, the spare tire jumped out of hiding and rushed to the desperate self ... This guy really considers himself a brother who can trust his life and death.
"Okay. Then. Let me give you a brief overview of what I know."
Chen Xiaolian groaned slowly and said slowly: "According to what we know now, I probably speculate that we are in William's army.
The upcoming war should be the final battle of William in the process of competing for the throne.
The famous Battle of Hastings in British history.
This battle took place in October 1066.
The warring parties are William and Harold.
The military strength of both sides is about 6,000 to 8,000. It can be said that the forces are equal.
The place of the battle ... This place should be called Hastings.
As a result of the battle, Harold died, William won, and laid the biggest foundation for the throne.
It can be said that this is the decisive battle. "
"Well, I see." Tire asked: "But ... you said it just now. If that's the case, what else is there for us? William will win anyway."
"So, this is our biggest crisis." Chen Xiaolian frowned: "I guess ... now that the system has set the copy task here, then the comparison of the strengths of the two sides and the conditions of their respective possessions are definitely and true. History is different.
You think ... William has us here.
So ... the other side, Harold, maybe ... there are also other game participants joining! "
Finally, Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly: "In other words, this second stage is likely to be a ... competitive copy mission!"
