Military Genius Came To Another World with Zizhi Tongjian
Vol 2 Chapter 49: Flame of hope
Lund Kingdom, a small country located in the eastern part of the Britannia Empire, sandwiched between the Britannia Empire and the Frank Empire, is also a vassal state of the Britannia Empire.
Although it is only a small country whose land area can be described by bullets, thanks to its abundant land and unique geographical location, it has very developed agriculture and commerce. In general, it is also an extremely prosperous and peaceful country.
As the capital of the Kingdom of Lund, Heron City, which accumulates the essence and wealth of the country, is undoubtedly the largest and most prosperous city in the Kingdom of Lund.
However, the most prosperous city in the Kingdom of Lund is now completely silent.
A strong smell of blood, metal, and rancid smell enveloped the city of Heron, the capital of the Lund Kingdom.
In Heron City, the market is sluggish and cold. Compared with the prosperous and splendid before, it is almost impossible to imagine that this is the same city. There are sparse pedestrians on the street. The only pedestrians on the street are also numb and a little bit numb. Horrified.
They were all scared, afraid that the army of the 80,000 Carolingian Kingdom surrounding Herron City would defeat their last defense of Herron City, and then rushed into the city and raised their butcher knife.
On the wall of Herron City, the king of Lund Kingdom, who is fully armored, is taking a few guards to inspect the conditions on the wall.
The walls of the city are all blood stained, and there is almost no clean place for people to get their feet on.
The king standing on the city wall looked sadly outside the city of Herron, looking at the 80,000 army that surrounded Herron city.
"Well, this Alan Jones is really amazing..." The king who looked at the 80,000 army besieged outside the city sighed painfully.
The reason for this sigh is that the king himself participated in the previous field battle with the Carolingian Kingdom.
Although the Lund Kingdom is economically prosperous, its military power is not strong. The mobilization of 90,000 troops is already the limit.
The Carolingian Kingdom sent a full 80,000 troops to invade them. That is to say, even if the Lund Kingdom sends all its 90,000 troops to meet the enemy, it will not have an advantage in the number of soldiers.
The individual combat effectiveness of the Lund Kingdom is similar to the individual combat effectiveness of the Carolingian Kingdom, so there is no advantage in the quality of the soldiers.
The Carolingian Kingdom and the Lund Kingdom are also rivals. They have fought for so long, and both sides have some knowledge of each other. Therefore, the king is very clear that the Carolingian Kingdom does not have any outstanding generals.
The number and quality of soldiers and the quality of generals are similar on both sides, so in other words, this battle will be difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat.
Therefore, in order to win, the king of Lund Kingdom resolutely decided to conquer himself, personally command the 90,000 army of Lund Kingdom to meet the 80,000 invading army of Carolingian Kingdom!
However, although the king's imperial conquest, the morale of the army's generals and soldiers greatly increased, but they failed to repel the invading army of the Carolingian Kingdom, and the two sides were deadlocked.
Although he failed to defeat the invading army in one fell swoop, the king was very satisfied with the result. Because the offensive team failed to achieve the goal and was blocked by the defense team, then the offensive team lost.
The 80,000 troops of the Carolingian Kingdom came from a long way, and my side is fighting locally. As long as the stalemate continues and the supplies of the Carolingian Kingdom are dragged down, the 80,000 troops will also retreat without fighting.
So, now I just need to continue to stalemate with them like this.
The king's vision is beautiful, but the reality is very cruel.
On that day, a sudden change occurred!
The king will never forget that day.
The Carolingian army, who had been quiet for a long time, suddenly launched a fierce attack on them just before dawn!
The king doesn’t know much about military affairs. Although the prince’s personal expedition bears the name of the commander-in-chief of the whole army, the specific command is still given to the generals underneath. He himself is just a mascot.
However, even the king who didn't know much about military affairs saw that the command style of the Carolingian army suddenly changed at the time!
suddenly became fierce and violent!
As for the Carolingian army with a sudden change in style, Lund's army did not react for a while and was caught off guard.
However, this is not the most terrifying, and even more terrifying is yet to come.
The king still remembers the scene at that time-a cavalry squad of thousands of people rushed towards them in a wedge-shaped formation. Every cavalry in this cavalry squad was dressed in silver heavy armor, not only people wearing heavy armor, Even the war horses under their hips were draped in silver heavy armor. This cavalry squad, which can be said to be wrapped in armor, rushed towards their Lende army. Thousands of war horses were galloping, and the sky and the earth seemed to be trembling.
The king knew at a glance the true identity of this cavalry team-the iron armored Paladins of the Frankish Empire!
The king once visited the Frankish Empire and saw the style of the armored Paladins and the horror of the armored Paladins.
After that visit, the terrifying posture of the armored Paladin was firmly engraved in his mind.
However, the king never expected that he would experience the horror of the armored paladin himself.
Thousands of armored Paladins like a hot knife cutting butter, easily tore open the Lund's army.
The 90,000 troops of the Lund Kingdom were easily torn apart by the armored Paladins with only a few thousand men.
The iron-clad Paladins rushed straight to the main formation of the Lund Army, where the king was located, as if entering an uninhabited state.
Seeing the armored Paladins approaching him, the king also led the elite guards around him to escape in a panic.
However, this armored paladin stuck firmly behind the king. No matter how the king drove the horse under his crotch, he couldn't get rid of the armored paladin stuck behind him.
In the end, under the desperate protection and resistance of the elite guards, the king managed to get rid of the armored Paladins who followed him and escaped.
It's just that, only he and a few guards and generals escaped.
Under the powerful attack of the armored Paladins and the follow-up of 80,000 Carolingians, the 90,000 army of the Lund Kingdom-was wiped out!
The main force of the Kingdom of Lund is completely destroyed.
After annihilating the main forces of the Kingdom of Lund, the Carolingian army continued to advance, and their troops were directed at the capital city of Heron!
After the king escaped, he gathered some remnants and returned to the capital city of Heron.
After returning to the city of Heron, the king immediately ordered to seek help from the overlord of the Britannia Empire! And prohibit anyone from entering or leaving Herron City, count all the food, grass and materials in the city, and be prepared to defend Herron City to the death!
And at this time, the king finally knew the reason for their previous defeat and why the iron armored Paladins of the Frankish Empire appeared here.
It turned out that the Carolingian Kingdom became anxious when seeing the battle on the front line, and asked for help from their suzerain, the Frank Empire, so the Frank Empire sent their general-"Steel Bone" Alan Jones, and 4000 iron armors. Paladins came to help them.
After hearing this truth, the king finally figured out why the Carolingian army's command style had changed at that time, and why the armored Paladins appeared here.
Although a piece of suspicion in my heart has disappeared, my heart has also become heavier.
The king had already understood that without the assistance of the Britannia Empire, under Alan’s command, the fall of Heron City would only be a matter of time.
Therefore, the king has been praying since then, praying that the Britannia Empire can come to help and defeat Alan and his armored Paladins!
Soon, the 80,000 troops of the Carolingian Kingdom led by Alan Jones approached the city and launched a fierce attack on Heron. With the high walls of Heron and the rich defense equipment in the city, the soldiers in the city are finally Withstood the fierce attack of the Carolingian army, and these days, the Carolingian army has finally stopped a bit, and the soldiers and the king in the city can finally take a breather.
……
"How long can the food in the city last?" The king asked a general next to him.
"His Royal Highness, I can still support it for about 40 days." The general replied without thinking.
"40 days..." the king continued, "then how many soldiers do we have in the city of Herron?"
"Your Highness, there are about 4,000 soldiers left." As the general said, a dark color flashed in his eyes.
"Is there only so much left..." The king's face was full of bitterness.
The king standing on the city wall, although there was a constant cool wind blowing by him, but he did not feel the leisure of this cool breeze at all.
In front of several fences and deep trenches, among the flags of the Carolingian Army, a majestic figure stood. Just looking at this vague figure, the king felt a wave of pressure pressing on him.
Although it is so far away that he can't even see the other side's figure, the king is sure that this figure is now the commander-in-chief of the 80,000 army of the Carolingian Kingdom-Alan Jones of the Frank Empire~www.wuxiaspot. com~How long can we last..." the king murmured frustratedly.
At this moment, a series of screams came, from far to near.
"Your Highness! Your Highness! There is an urgent report! There is an urgent report!"
"What is the urgent report?" The king said lightly without turning his head.
"The Britannia Empire sent troops to rescue!!!"
"what?!"
The king turned his head abruptly, a bit of ecstasy in surprise.
"Yes! The Britannia Empire dispatched 1/3 of the Gabriel Knights, with a total of 100,000 troops to rescue! We are saved!"
The generals around the king are also happy now.
"The Britannia Empire finally dispatched troops!"
"Let me just say it! How can we say that our Lund Kingdom is also a vassal state of the Britannia Empire! How could the Britannia Empire not save us!"
"A hundred thousand army! A whole hundred thousand army! We are saved!"
"Long live the Kingdom of Lund! Long live the Britannia Empire!"
……
Although the king was also full of joy, but soon the joy on his face dissipated a little, and it became a little more solemn.
"No, we can't be happy too early." The king said solemnly, "When the Britannia Empire defeated Allen, none of us were saved. Although the total strength of the Britannia Empire accounted for I have the upper hand, but the enemy commander is the Alan! Who wins and who loses is still unknown!"
After hearing the king's words, the generals' joy faded a little, and their faces recovered a little dignified.
However, although it is not the time to be happy yet, in the wilderness named "Despair" in everyone's hearts, a flame named "Hope" finally ignited.
