Chapter 259: [Haste]

According to Russell's complaint, he took a group of mercenaries and some heavy trucks and deferred slowly, only to meet the cavalry forward of the Odin army.
The Odins still came from the Albaktor Plain Corridor, and the forward cavalry were all light cavalry, with a small number of scouts from the icefield hunters.
At this time, if you want to come back with a heavy carriage cargo, it is impossible. Once caught up by Odin's light forward team, not only the cargo is gone, but also everyone is finished. So Russell made a decision and simply abandoned the team to escape. The driver and the attendants of some caravans without horses untied the driver. Leaving the road and fleeing into the surrounding wilderness and mountains, if you want to avoid the marching route of the Odin army, you should have great confidence to survive.
Russell and his mercenaries fled towards Wildfire Town.
While on the road, Russell's men and horses were spotted by Odin's forward cavalry. The Odin sent a small unit of cavalry to chase them for a while, but Odin's reindeer cavalry was not as good as horses on long-distance Mercedes-Benz. Escaped, but there were also a few companions who were unfortunately left behind, and they ran all the way to Wildfire Town to report to Xia. Fortunately, the Odin forward cavalry chased for a while, and saw that they could not catch up, so they gave up the chase.
The arrival of the Odin army, the news came out from Russell's mouth, and immediately shocked everyone present!
Charya's face changed several times, and she whispered, "How is it possible! The Odin army invaded, and the empire was not prepared at all ?! Have the Odins hit Wildfire?"
If this situation is in the past, it is indeed unimaginable.
In the state of long-term hostility between the two countries, the Byzantine Empire naturally also has various information channels scattered in the Odin Empire. Once the Odin Empire's army gathers and mobilizes war, it will inevitably conceal the Byzantine Empire's intelligence system. So before each war, once it was learned that the Odins would invade. The Byzantine Empire would mobilize troops early on the northern border.
The most common practice is that Chen Bing is in Moore County, and the soldiers are stationed in the town of Wildfire to fight against the enemy and fight against the Odin on the wildfire field to block the enemy from their borders. To avoid being poisoned by the flames of war in your own country.
For example, in the last war, before the Odins came, several central standing regiments of the Byzantine Empire had gathered at the border to set up defense lines and set up temporary war zones to serve the enemy.
But this time, within the empire, there is no movement? !!
What's more anxious for Charya is,
The Odin came from the north, and the striker had arrived fifty miles from Wildfire Town! The Empire did not have a large army to deal with it. The Odins can easily occupy the wildfire town of Sanzi, as the last stronghold of the march, and then they can march into the territory of the Byzantine Empire!
(Don't expect Wildfire Town to stop the Odins. Wildfire Town will never make any resistance to the occupiers.)
And once you passed the wild fire, the mayor drove south and hit the place. where is it?
It's your own County More! !! !! !!
There is no resistance from the main empire of the empire. With the current strength of County Moore, want to resist the forces of the Odin Empire? Are you kidding me? !!
The current local garrison in More County is nominally a formation of a banner group. It can be buried for many years, and its actual combat power is only a few hundred. With hundreds of miscellaneous soldiers, how to resist the sturdy and savage Odin soldiers?
Charya stood on the spot. The face was cloudy, and various thoughts turned into my heart, and I really did not understand why the Odins had hit the door this time, but there was nothing in the empire.
After all, these days are on the wildfire field, and he ran into the deep mountains of the Zaku natives for so many days. How can he know that the world outside has changed so much within the empire?
At this moment, the warlords of each military region have erected rebel flags, and the Central Standing Regiment, loyal to the imperial family, has been divided. The closest military districts near the capital have gathered insurgents to attack Osgil.
The whole empire has fallen into a mess. Where else can I go to deal with the Odin movement?
He didn't even know. The Odin invasion has long been reported by the Byzantine intelligence system. But at this time, the central part of the empire has been paralyzed, the royal family is teetering, the imperial order cannot be the imperial capital, and all the troops are desperately ordered to move closer to Osgiriya.
"Sir! Make a decision!"
Right now. The first person to speak was Philip. This guy was also gloomy, but there was a faint flash of light in his eyes: "Can't delay now! Where to go from here, please make an order!"
Xia Ya glanced at the former silver python warrior regiment. He forcibly pressed the anxiety in his sister's heart, took a deep breath, glanced around the crowd, and finally fell on Russell: "Russell!"
Russell stood up immediately after hearing the words: "Master!"
"You did a good job." Xia Shen said: "I do n’t blame you for discarding the convoy goods, but I want to reward you! If you lose something, you can earn it again, but if you lose your life, you really do n’t.
Russell breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that he was following the right person, this adult is not the kind of scornful person.
"Russell. The situation is urgent now, so you can't rest yet." Charlie stared at Russell, Russell immediately straightened his chest: "Sir, I'm not afraid to be tired, please tell me!"
"I'll give you all the current convoys! This gold is our military expenses. You immediately take the convoy without stopping, and immediately smoke out of the city and head to Denzel City, More County! Be sure to arrive as soon as possible. Denzel City! Report the matter to Green, the current defensive battalion leader of Denzel City! "After a pause, Charlie slowly said," I have no extra manpower for you, I will only give you twenty rides! "
Russell nodded, his face without any doubt: "Sir, you don't need twenty rides, ten rides is enough! I guarantee my life, and I will definitely send the military expenses back to Denzel City!"
"Send another fast horse to go ahead and report to Green, and prepare for war early! You go immediately!"
Charya finished. Russell responded immediately, turning over. After a while of sips, ten horse riders were chosen to follow their subordinates. Without stopping, head towards the south of the town.
"Philip! Shalpa!"
The two immediately stepped forward, and Xia looked at the two of them: "You two. Take ten cavalrymen to Lixuan out of town. Explore the enemy's situation! When encountering enemy scouts, try not to fight the enemy, as long as you detect the enemy's The direction, distance, and advancement of the army are just fine! Pay attention to safety! "
Pause. Charlie's eyes fell on Philip. Shen Sheng added: "Philip is in charge! What matters?
Shalbar froze for a moment, his face a little puzzled.
After all, in Shalpa's mind. They are the closest relatives to Charlie. They both walked out of the General Guard Guard of the Rodria Cavalry Regiment, and were brothers killed together from the blood of the dead mountains. He is a veteran in the army. This kind of work of going out to explore the enemy's situation should be responsible for himself before sighing to Xia Ya. Quickly said: "Shalpa, you are too impatient, Philip is more refined. This time just to explore the enemy. Do not fight the enemy. So you have to listen to Philip!"
Philip suddenly felt a touch in his eyes. He was originally an enemy of Xia, and now he has no choice but to commit to Xia's men. He has never been able to get the true trust of Xia. This time, Xia suddenly made such a decision. Philip Immediately moved, he immediately said, "Master, rest assured, I will be careful!"
Although Shalpa is a reckless general, he is not a small-belly man. After listening, he does not argue. He simply turned over and took ten rides with Philip. Quickly headed north.
At this moment, there are a group of mercenaries. The big ten are the original Hawks' subordinates of the Fire Rhino Mercenary Regiment, some are Russell's subordinates, and there are more than thirty people. They are the Landis of the Gallons Chamber of Commerce. warrior.
Charlie looked at the others, smiled, and summoned the leader of the Gallons Chamber of Commerce, and said frankly: "You are Landis, I want to work hard with the Odin, you really ca n’t commit to die, I also Will not force you to go with me, "
The chief of the Gallons Chamber of Commerce was relieved when he heard it. Char's dialect turned: "But I need your horses and weapons, especially your Landis crossbow. I will borrow them all."
The people at the Gallons Chamber of Commerce suddenly smiled: "This, no problem, adults need to use it, although it is good to take it."
Then, he ordered that all the Landis guard warriors gave up their horses and bows and arrows that they carried.
Xia immediately assigned the horses. There were originally 50 mercenaries left, and the horses had more than 80 horses. Xia thought about it and immediately called Hawke to let him do one. thing.
"I know it's night! But now the matter is urgent! You are also a habitual person in Yehuozhen. You naturally know the situation here. Now it is night. I don't care if you go to the door or get people out of bed. What's more, if you go to the horse market, I want you to show at least thirty war horses! The price doesn't matter. Ten times the price is also given by Lao Tzu! But I only give you half an hour of the Seal of God! "
Hawke didn't hesitate when he heard it. Immediately, a few mercenary warriors rushed out like wolves.
He also lived in Yehuo Town for a long time. The situation in the town was natural, and the familiar road ran to the horse market. There, the caravans had horses, and the dealers had goods. They were very familiar with it. Although noisy people might offend people, Xia made ten times the price and opened the way for gold coins. I do n’t have much problem to come.
After Xia had made the order. Immediately took the others to the north of the town, and waited there for half an hour, and surely saw Hawk led his team of horses to the meeting.
As a result, more than 50 people under Charya had at least a hundred horses. Xia Yaxuan commanded that each person had two horses. Drink water and eat dry food, and get ready to go out of town. Right here. At that time, a shout came from the street behind the town. Looking back, it was the Landis of the Gallons Chamber of Commerce.
The leader of the Gallons Chamber of Commerce brought someone to a big car, ran to Xia Ya, and dismissed him, saying loudly: "Sir, I just went back and talked to the owner. The owner said something, thank you Xia The adults read the two countries ’stand and did not embarrass us. However, since the adult Fu Ya is our friend, then the friends have difficulties, and we at Landis cannot help but.
He turned back and pointed to the carriage: "Although we are not convenient to come forward directly to help, but there are still some stock items in the store. Just" borrow them together and use them for adults! " "
As soon as Xian Ya was in her heart, she saw that the Landis had taken down the contents of the car, and this "ceremony" was not too light. Thirty Landis military standard bows, sixty pot arrows, and ten good armors.
What surprised Xia most was that there was actually a small crossbow that could be disassembled! This is a crossbow cart, which can be assembled directly on the carriage. After the assembly is complete, you can shoot a crossbow with a length of nearly two meters, which can be tripled! This is already a heavy ordnance. Thinking of the Gallons Chamber of Commerce, such a good thing is stored in a remote side like Wildfire Town? !!
Looking at Charya's eyes, the leader of the Naples Chamber of Commerce immediately understood and explained: "Our Chamber of Commerce is located in the frontier. Some arms trade is always inevitable, and adults will not be too surprised to come to Charya Blame it. "
Xia Haha smiled. Immediately said: "Thank you for the owner of the store on my behalf! Just say this charity of the Gallons Chamber of Commerce, I remember Xia Leiming!"
Just a few miles north of the town is a mountain. This mountain is the most familiar place in Xia. Go down this mountain road and go on for another day. You can walk to the valley in the mountains, where he used to live.
After taking the men with them to the mountain and hiding in the woods on the hillside, Xia Ya stood by the hillside and looked far away to the road to the north.
After waiting for about an hour, I heard the rapid sound of horseshoes far away. In the night, more than ten rides came down south. Xia Ya saw that the people were Philip and others, and ran out to the road immediately.
Philip and Scharba stopped the horse in front of Xia Ya. They were riding for more than ten times, everyone was sweating, and their faces were covered with dust.
"how about it?"
Philip looked grim: "It's not great!"
Everyone ran into the woods and sat down. Philip took a few breaths and said, "It is indeed Odin.
Shalpa next interjected: "It's Chixue Legion."
"Humble" Charlie froze.
"Well, it can't be wrong." Shalpa said in a firm voice: "I played a lot of battles with the Odins while in the Rhodes Cavalry Regiment. I am familiar with the Odin banner. The red flag hung by Ding's army, and I recognized at a glance that this is the Chixue Army. "
Xia is not very familiar with this "Red Snow Army" In fact, his days of joining the army were short after all, and only the Kokoran Army in the last war, and the Black Flag Army of Hastings . I really don't know much about this "Red Snow Army".
Shalpa didn't look easy: "The Red Snow Army is a strong army of Odin. Although not as famous as the Black Flag Army of Hastings, it is also a hard bone! We rode with the Rhoderian cavalry a few years ago The sturdy front was sturdy and the opponent was very angry. Guess "The cavalry of the two regiments rushed ten times in a row. Before they broke through their army formation, it was miserable
Can withstand the nine heads of the Rodria Cavalry in turns. It is indeed a rare force in the world.
"The Red Snow Army is not a line of the Odin royal family, so it has been under the black flag in the Odin Army. However, I heard from General Adrik that year, the commander of the Red Snow Army was also a hard corner.
After listening to Shalpa ’s story, Charya showed a solemn look, and Philip continued:
The other party is a mixed legion, most of them are infantry, only a few cavalry, and most are reindeer cavalry, only extremely A few horses. The reindeer cavalry charged well, but the long-distance Mercedes was much worse than the horses. We ran for dozens of miles and we saw the other striker. The number was at least a thousand rides. "
Charlie noticed. While Philip was telling, Scharba nodded his head for a long time in the army. It seems that this number is not wrong.
"Later, I took a risk. I took someone alone and copied the Odin striker from the side. I went deeper for at least ten miles before I saw the Odin troops. To the end! I want to see that this Odin legion is all infantry, the main legion is behind, this forward runs too fast, and it is too far away from the main legion. "
Although Philip was delicate, he didn't understand the tactics in the army after all. Xia listened to him, and Li Xuan shook his head: "It's not that the cavalry is running too fast." The Odins would not make this kind of mistake. "
After a pause, he slowly said: "The Odins suddenly came to invade. The Qianqi forward didn't run too far, he must have received an order. Qingqi made a sudden advance, I'm afraid the purpose is to,"
Philip was also a wise man, and at one point, he blurted out, "They are trying to grab and occupy Wildfire Town!"
Charlie nodded.
Sherpa next to him suddenly said, "Xia Ya, there is one more thing"
"what?"
Shalpa's face was a bit ugly, and he wiped the sweat on his forehead, sinking: "Listen to Philip. He led someone around from behind the Odin forward cavalry, peeping into the large army of the Red Snow Army, It sounds wrong to hear Philip's description, "
"wrong?"
"Well! Philip said that those Odin infantry were marching hurriedly, and it didn't seem to see anything like a horse-drawn carriage in the army.
This one. Charya is completely discolored! !!
Without weight. A legion is marching lightly,
This approach is completely contrary to the convention! And this often happens, there are only two possibilities.
First? The commander of this Odin legion is a military idiot, but this is obviously impossible.
"Second Mody" is forcing the other party to march in pursuit of degree! Reach the target area with an attack and have enough control to defeat the enemy!
At the same time, it also brings up the question of how to replenish the supplies? !!
Support with sincerity. Support war by war! "Xia Ya almost uttered this sentence from the teeth.
obviously. The Odin came this time, this is the idea!
Do not carry weight. In order to pursue degree, I also made up my mind to supply it on the spot!
The so-called "supply" Xia who had been in the army naturally understood the "Han!"
in short. It is nothing more than a sentence: Burn and plunder!
Moore County, Charlie and Philip, as well as Shalpa, looked at each other at the same time, all of them were pale.
County More is a grain-producing area in the northern Empire! And the Empire did not know why it did not do any combat preparation this time! The northern Empire is almost unguarded! The Odin army only needed to take a few days of rations to march into the empire. How could the local defense forces be rivals? After defeating the local defense forces, the entire County of More is the flesh of the Odins! !!
Two times the Seal of God. The three became silent and looked at each other. Both Shalpa and Philip stared at Charlie, waiting for him to get an idea.
Xia Ya took a deep breath, and her heart was upset and abnormal, and she felt that the heavy oppression in her heart couldn't go away.
He rose to the hillside and let the night wind blow on his face. Trying to calm a beating heart.
The situation at the moment, he was very clear!
The goal of this Odin legion is County More! Once they enter the County of More, the food-rich County of More will become a supply area for the Odin army! The fierce and cruel Odin warriors will wield the butcher knife in their hands, slaughter the soldiers and civilians in More County, and grab enough food! The entire County of Moore will be bruised under the butcher's butcher!
If in the past, these things have nothing to do with Xia.
"Now" he is the armament chief of County More! County of Mor is his territory !!
If you want to live, it's easy! As long as he took his dad with him, he immediately drilled into the deep mountains next to him, and didn't have to worry about security issues for months.
but",
"Philip!"
Charlie looked back, and there was no hesitation in his eyes at this moment! His eyes flickered, full of absolute!
"I'll give you two batches of horses! You will go to Denzel City, County Mor, and report everything to Green! With his military strategy, he will naturally make a decision!"
Philip paused: "I, I go back, sir, what about you?"
"So much nonsense! Hurry up! Delayed military affairs ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I chopped your head!" Xia was furious, and suddenly pulled out the fork, and yelled, "Go!"
Instead, a feeling of blood came from Philip's hallucination, and he snarled, and turned on the horse and flew away. "
Sherpa was not in a hurry, but at the moment calmed down and looked at Xia: "It seems that you want to do a vote?"
Charya grinned. It's just that the smile is not half happy, but full of scum!
"There must always be a way to block this Odin army! Get some time for the Seal of the Seal of God, and Green will have room to prepare for it."
Shalpa also grinned, pulled out his knife and chopped down on the trunk next to him, and laughed: "Okay! Just do it! Anyway, it's just a death! The man from Rhoderia is afraid of death. of!"
Xia Ya squinted for a moment and thought, shaking his head and saying, "We can't fight hard, we're just a few dozen. People, even if they are all out. Faced with an enemy legion, but the throne of God's Seal was killed in the film time It ’s useless, you have to think of a way.
