Conquest

[====== Hand hit =====] This summer, once the temperature starts to rise, it will be hotter every day.

Last night's wind, but after dawn, the temperature suddenly rose, and at noon, even the air seemed to be a little hot, and the warm wind was lazy. I can't wait to find a cool place to take a good nap.

This is the road north of Siltan County. This road was built by the empire decades ago. "Later it has been repaired by successive prefectures, and it has become quite large. The usual north-south road built by the empire was originally to cope with the war, and the troops and horses in the south were dispatched to the north. In the past wars, the materials and energy resources in the south of the Byzantine Empire continued to be diverted to the north. The smooth roads between the north and the south contributed a lot. Siltan County's position in the northern part of the empire was quite awkward. The county ’s land The area is not much different from that of More County, but it is not as rich as More County. It is located on the border, has the benefits of border trade, and is rich in grain. However, in Siltan County, in addition to the pleasant weather, food is produced. Apart from the abundance, there is really no other oil and water, and most of the north are plains. There are no large mountains, and naturally there are few minerals.

After all, it is not a border county, and the food is plentiful. It has always been regarded as peaceful and plentiful. Speaking of which, the population is more than that of More County in the north.

Before the war, Siltan County was directly under the control of the imperial central government. It is considered to be one of the few central administrative regions in the empire. The Seventh Regiment of the Empire was originally stationed here.

But a few months ago, after the Odin invaded and the Seventh Army was wiped out by the Odin Red Snow Army, the entire territory of Siltan County fell, and the tranquility and prosperity of the past were never seen again.

Originally, after the Odins came over, the people were all in panic, especially when they heard that the Seventh Corps was wiped out during the Battle of the Shirma River, and the entire Seventh Corps was overwhelmed. Those fierce Odins even captured the captives. The massacre left no one alone, and dyed the water of the Shirma River red, and the village feed in the lower reaches of the river. In those days, the most seen were the bodies of Byzantine emperor soldiers floating down from the upstream river, those corpses. Most of them are incomplete, but they are swollen by the river, and they look very scary.

Later, there were legends in the folk that these fierce Odins would kill all the Byzantines in Siltan County. Such legends even made the hearts of the people below them. In a moment, a large number of refugees surged. The tide is coming.

But Manninger of the Red Snow Army was not a bale, and he also had some foresight when he talked about it. Among the heads of the savage Odin tribe, he was considered a hero. After annihilating the 7th Corps, he occupied Sil Throughout the county, they actually separated some of the Odin army from their squadrons and held some important points of the mountains and rivers to prevent the tide of refugees and drive them back to their hometowns. At the same time, it also ordered that the looting of Odin's army be restricted: robbery is allowed, but wanton burning is not allowed, and adultery is strictly prohibited.

Odin was brutal in nature. He originally went south and entered the flower world of Byzantium. This Byzantine empire was rich. After the break of the counties and cities, the grain piled up in the granaries and the gold coins stored in the coffers turned red. Looking at it, the land here is so fertile that Byzantine men are as weak as sheep, but those Byzantine women are all with good skin and good looks.

The Odins were very aggressive and did some slaughtering of villages and towns. Manninger's order was not implemented at the beginning. Everyone thought in his mind that "fighting fights, killing lives, and killing lives. After this fight, , Isn't it happy?

But who would have thought that Manninger was extremely fierce and sent his guard out as an inspector and inspected all over the place. Any soldiers in the Odin army that violated his orders were severely punished, even chopped in a single breath. It took a few heads to finally convince the army.

While Manninger ordered the refugees to be strictly forbidden, they dispatched teams in various places to stay there, but then ordered to hurry up and drive the residents in place to hurry up for spring ploughing. In order to even grab the time, they also sent a lot of Odin troops to inspect the places severely, even Among the farmland, the farmer worked in the field, and there were Odin soldiers with leather whip to supervise by the field.

As for the conquered areas, it is not allowed to slaughter civilians of a Byzantine at will. Instead, they also gathered some Byzantine officials who had surrendered in Siltan County, collected the population register, organized it, and registered it.

For the dissatisfaction and confusion in the tribe, Manninger only later explained: "This time we went south differently than in the past. In the past, we just came to catch a vote, and when it burned, it burned. Then, we grabbed the things and brought them back. But this time, we came here for the long-term plan. After coming, we do n’t plan to leave. The land, houses, and farmland here are all our own. Stuff! The following little cubs are not sensible and burned and killed, but they are all our own things in the future! As for these Byzantines, all of us will be our slaves in the future. If they are all killed, there will be no people to cultivate food In the autumn, what do our soldiers eat and drink? Do our warriors in the Bashak tribe put down their tomahawks and guns, roll their sleeves and run to the farmland to do the farming work themselves? Is it a bunch of mindless things! "Everyone was convinced.

Manninger then made a series of moves. After completing the spring ploughing time, he sent people to adjust the strength in the city-feeding villages, ordering each household to produce a small dungeon. Men who were taller than the wheels must be released. Hard labor.

Nearly 30,000 young people were recruited, and the construction of Odin's army garrison began in various places, especially along the roads in the south of Siltan County. Several barriers that had been in disrepair for many years were re-repaired, and even had The place was simply pushed down to rebuild the city gate, and three major military fortresses were built at key locations around the city to accommodate their own troops. In the most fertile areas of the land, the local residents were relocated, and then the civil servants were recruited. In the future, the construction of the new city one by one was built in accordance with the style of the Odin architecture.

This series of actions is obviously a clear vision of the horse and the horse, intending to stay here forever. He even heard that Manninger planned to send people back to the tribe to relocate some people once the bitter fighting calmed down.

All of Manninger's actions were methodical. But who would have thought that a month ago Xia had provoked the contradiction between the Odin and the Corsican Military Region, killed the governor's eldest son directly, planted the stolen money to the Odin, and the two fought. In the anger of Ninger, Odin's army gathered and crossed the border, occupying several towns and many lands in the Corsica Military Region in one fell swoop. The migration of the population within the national tribe has been delayed.

However, in the summer, many levels have been completed, and those new towns are still in a hurry to catch up. I heard that Manninger felt sorry for his tribes in the country, hoping to build it before the cold winter season came. New city, so that the domestic tribal population will migrate to the south for winter.

At this time, most of the Red Snow Army's strength has been transferred to the Corsica Military Region, and they are fighting fiercely with the troops of the Corsica Military Region. The two sides are said to have fought fiercely in the past few days. Corsica Although the army was at a disadvantage, after the entry of the Odins, a considerable fighting force broke out in order to protect the native land. I heard that during the last battle, although the Odins fought again, they also suffered a lot.

The Odin army remaining in Siltan County has been reassigned. Manninger has only placed thousands of people at the southern border checkpoint to maintain deterrence against the military district in the south. In fact, the strength of the army is no longer weak. Even in several places where new cities are built, Min Wanmin rushed to work, leaving only less than a thousand Odin troops in charge.

It's just that the people in Siltan County are already extremely scared of these fierce Odins, especially Manninger's act of slaughtering the 7th Corps in the first place has left him with a very fierce name. These people in Siltan County did not dare to think of resistance.

Moreover, the Odin people are no longer killing people, but they are only driving people to work. Although tired, tired, bitter, and poor in eating, they will be beaten by whip one by one every day.

Only in this way, the formerly densely populated towns in Sirtan County could not be avoided. It was close to noon. Under the city of Kodel, although the gates were open, but crooked, several coalition troops in black robes were sitting together to avoid the sun.

Some have rusty swords hanging around their waists, some have only a rusty shield in their hands, and others have simply taken off their robes, revealing their thin bodies, and waving their tongues and waving chalk "Palm fan wind."

Manninger ordered the restrictions on the movement of people everywhere. This command is very clever, but when it comes to the implementation, it becomes more interesting.

The Odin are barbaric peoples from the north. Many places are still the original model of the tribe. Even an Odin such as Manninger may not have much ink in his stomach, but only by virtue of his sharp observation and savvy. In order to make some wise judgments.

But the people below ... Where do you know so much? Most Odin fighters can write their names in Odin words, but they are afraid that none of them can be found in ten.

As for restricting the flow of people ... what can you expect these guys to come up with to restrict the flow of people?

The Odin did not move, and most of the Byzantine surrendered officials were only snobbish, too lazy to care about these things. As for the "Byzantine gangsters" of the black-skinned dogs, what do they know about the original rogues?

Simply, since everyone has no choice, use the most direct and simple method! Aren't we trying to restrict population movement? Regardless of the strategy, here in Kodel City, the Odin Cavalry Chief of the garrison patted his head: "Master Manninger said that to restrict population movement, then simply, ordered that no more than one hundred people enter and leave the city every day!"

This is all right. There are still tens of thousands of people in the city. Although everyone is going out as little as possible when the soldiers are in trouble, but who is not in a hurry? Who can have a headache and brain heat?

Those who want to go out of town to find relatives, those who go out of town to buy food, those who go out of town to find doctors, those who go out of town to chop firewood to make a living ... how can there be more than one hundred every day?

And if someone dies in the family, they have to bury it, and they have to bury it in the cemetery. Ca n’t they be buried in their own backyard?

As a result, in this city of Codel, every day it ’s not bright, there are people waiting in line at the gate. "But no matter what urgent things you have, even if the family is dead, people rush into the soil. If you do n’t get to the top 100, ... Sorry, wait for you to go home, please come early tomorrow! This **** order has given those black-skinned dogs room for oil and water. After all, these guys guard the gates of the city, and those who line up in and out every day. For urgent matters, it is necessary to secretly plug two or three copper plates, etc. One by one, it depends on the mood of others! At noon, these black leather dogs are sitting under the city gate. A guy with a full face is obviously A boss, standing next to an old man in a linen robe, carefully courtesy of the companion, holding a torn piece of paper in his hand to the uncle fan, to accompany a belly of good words, and finally plugged a little Passing by.

The boss was pinching his hands again, but it seemed to be too few, and immediately became unhappy, turned and shoved the man, followed by angrily, and said, "Are you a beggar? Are you a few bets? It ’s not enough to buy a bottle of wine! Want to get out of town? Come early tomorrow morning! "

The black dogs next to each other laughed and pointed.

At this time, on the road outside the city, a wrecked carriage, the wheels seemed crooked, running all the way, the sound of creaking, as if it would fall apart at any time.

What's even more weird is that the one who pulls the cart is not a bull, but it is actually a young and tall young man! With a rope on his body, he pulled a broken carriage and walked like a fly.

Behind the broken carriage, the carriage was long gone, but there were people sitting on it, two women and one man.

The car came to the gate of the city and was stopped by those black dogs.

"Aha! Here comes the business! The brothers are up and up."

There was a smug smile on the face of the defending leader, and several of them shouted and leaped and stopped under the gate, and even looked at the torn and rusty sword and shield in their hands as a threat. .

The young man with the carriage and carriage stood under the gate of the city, stood upright, and did not look at the guys who were standing under the door, but turned back and smiled bitterly: "Master Xia, once you say I'll take two roads in turn, Now it seems that I can be fooled by you. I pulled two miles and went down to the city. You clearly remember the journey and deliberately came to me. "

The man sitting in the car leaned out half of his body, his arms rounded and his waist flared. "The sturdy stance of our body is exactly our uncle Xia Yatu.

Xia jumped straight from the car ~ www.readwn.com ~ and patted Dax on the shoulder: "The words are good, I remember the journey, the distance is calculated, and the two miles are just under the city. However, the way I said, but the order of who pulls the car first is yours.

If you pull after the election, then just this way, sitting in the car blowing hair is you.

Daxzhuo said, "I'm not hurt yet ..."

Xia has ignored this guy, and looked up at the dilapidated city gate: "Well, it's time to reach the city of Kodel, then the road below is not too far away ... Well, if it is not with a few people, In my own words, I ran back in just a few days. ”============ To provide you with the fastest and latest online novels ============
