Continental Warriors Yoo Ma

"Three weeks ago," said Dinois in a deep voice.

The mages are almost all of the ruling class, and it is basically impossible for the French spies in London to convince a British traitor who can use the technique of communication. They can only use traditional methods to transmit information.

"Does your Highness know?"

Dinois smiled helplessly and shook his head: "When I went to the box, only the prince was in it. It is said that His Royal Highness the King slipped out and had a tryst with Mrs. Agnes."

"Uh..." Thinking of the queen who was still hiding in his box, Yofu Ma felt that it would be difficult for him to accuse Charles VII of indulging in pleasure and delaying the military situation.

"There will be a military meeting in front of the imperial government tomorrow, and several generals will participate. Let's discuss this matter at that time." Ma Youfu said.

"That's the only way." Dinoy sighed, "I ran to Chalon overnight in the cold weather, just to save a little time, but who knows this is the result. Forget it! Go wash some hot water first. Take a shower and find another maid to warm you up."

After personally sending Dinoy out of the theater, it is estimated that the queen had already left, and Yoof Ma was too lazy to return, so he left Chalon City.

Outside the city is the endless Catalonia Plain, only on the banks of the Marne River, about [-] kilometers southeast of the city, there is a hilly slope.

This is where Attila, the whip of God, camped.

Ma Youfu also took a fancy to the only commanding height within the line of sight, where the general battalion was set up.

After he drove his horse to the barracks, he called several generals who were about to go to sleep.

"Zpisiko, starting tomorrow, we must hurry up to build fortifications. If there are not enough people, go to the nearby villages and hire laborers in the city of Chalon. Winter is slack, and there must be many people willing to come and make a quick money."

Then, Mayuf looked at the Castilians again: "Torres, do you have enough building materials and tools?"

"It has always been sufficient, my lord. I have been on the battlefield for so many years, and I have never seen such a meticulous and thoughtful army. Please rest assured." Torres patted his chest and assured.

Youfu Ma nodded, called a few more people, and inspected the side of the Marne River on the hill.

"The defense of the river bank must be carefully managed, and the artillery positions must be selected so that the firepower can cover as many river channels as possible."

Jean Brow silently remembered it, while the others listened to Yofu Ma's orders, and their expressions gradually became serious.

"Boss, the enemy will attack from the Marne River? Impossible," said Green Horn, rubbing his beard.This shield dwarf born in the Alps has no concept of water warfare.

Viking longships are narrow and slender, light and strong, with extremely shallow drafts, so they can not only sail in the sea, but also come and go freely in the river.

Back then they could even travel south along the Yona River and invade Burgundy!

Yoo Ma will not tell his subordinates about the existence of the Dark Vikings for the time being.Because saying this kind of thing that is only absurd rumors unless you see it with your own eyes will only make Jean Brow and others question and confuse them, and thus damage their authority.

Chapter 95 Generals

"Be careful. I've heard that the English got new technology from the elves and made ships that can travel in the river, so I have to guard against it."

This concocted explanation was widely accepted.The dwarf Thorin, in particular, roared furiously: "I knew those damn elves would do bad things! Don't let me meet them, or you must use a halberd to smash the bones of these pointed ears one by one!"

Compared to the irascible young dwarves, the other human generals were more calm.

But they still couldn't hide their excitement.

Zipi Siko was steady and composed, but he was also a warrior who dared to single-handedly rush to the Grand Commander of the Teutonic Knights when he was young, and he never lacked the courage to face the war head-on.

Torres figured out how much money he could make from this battle.With the lightning-fast Andalusian steed, it should be easier to take prisoners.Just kidding, this battle has the Holy Maiden on its side, occupies a favorable location, and has powerful artillery, how could it be impossible to win?

Jean Brow was eager to try it, wanting to see how powerful the artillery unit built with all his effort could be in actual combat.

The Albanian wiped his saber silently.Only when Yoo Ma called his name "Nikola" would he return a firm look, indicating that his men were ready to fight at any time.

Seeing that the military was ready and fully prepared, Yoof Ma had nothing to say, and left the camp after promising that "there will be a reward after victory".

He returned to his bedroom in the castle and slept until dawn.

The next day, Yoo Ma called Joan of Arc to go to the military conference of Charles VII.

"Jane, how are you feeling?"

Joan of Arc frowned and caressed the injured shoulder: "Thanks to the herbs of the priests, the wound is healed. But the evil curse still lingers in the body..."

Seeing Yofu Ma's concerned look, the girl showed a smile: "Don't worry, teacher, I have not been greatly affected by the blessing of the Seven Saints."

The two came to the conference room of Charles VII and found that two people had arrived first.

"Oh, my friend, it's been a long time." Volga laughed and walked to Yofu Ma.

Youf Ma crouched down and hugged the shield dwarf.

Volga's mercenary regiment has been stationed in Orleans after replenishment reached 500 people.Then, they received a short-term contract from Charles VII to garrison in Chalons to ensure the smooth progress of the peace talks between Faber and Bolivia.

Compared with those noble armies who often rebelled and had corrupt military discipline, Charles VII felt that these Swiss mercenaries were more trustworthy.

Now in the city of Sharon, in addition to these dwarf mercenaries, there are about 300 king's guards.If you are willing to spend money, you may be able to recruit a few hundred to 1000 militiamen.

Coupled with Philip III who is about to arrive, and Ma Youfu's own troops, the defense force of Sharon City will not exceed 4000 people.

This force is enough to fight a medium-sized battle.But it is not enough to defend the two monarchs.

Yoof Ma hopes that at least a thousand more soldiers will be added.

At this time, another general in the room was staring at Joan of Arc. After sizing for a while, he said in a loud voice: "Girl, I knew you would come back. How could the weak Burgundians take your freedom!"

This man was more than two meters tall, and the whole person was like a walking fire. There were faint blue blood vessels protruding from his neck. It was said that it was the characteristic of the blood of a giant.

Etienne de Vignolle, nicknamed La Haier (Anger), is now the first French warrior, and later generations are as famous as Lancelot and Hector, and a legendary figure printed on playing cards.

He was standing right in front of Yof Ma.

Unlike Yofu Ma who was surprised to see famous historical figures, Joan of Arc naturally nodded and said hello to La Haier.The two have fought side by side several times and are very familiar.

After greeting Joan of Arc, Rachel smiled and patted Yoo Ma on the shoulder: "You are doing very well, Sirius. Well, maybe you should be called the Count of Rouen. You persuaded Burgundy. Release Jeanne, many French soldiers owe you a favor - including me."

Enduring the huge force on his shoulders, Ma Youfu responded calmly: "This is what I should do. Although I'm just a foreigner, I don't want to see a pure girl who combines many virtues. At the hands of the Englishmen."

The two were talking when Charles VII walked in.There were three men behind him.In addition to the "illegitimate child" Dinois whom Yo-Fu Ma knew, the other two were a pale and thin young man with long black hair, and the other was a veteran with a beautiful beard.

After seeing Joan of Arc, the three soldiers were all overjoyed and came forward to greet each other.

Looking at Joan of Arc, who was surrounded by stars, Charles VII said with a bit of jealousy beside Yofu Ma: "Young Ma, sometimes I am really jealous of Miss Jeanne's reputation. Only she can unite all the rebellious French knights. together."

"Without your assistance, Jeanne would not be able to establish her prestige in the army. The saint and the king are one body," Yoof Ma replied.

"That's right." Charles VII nodded, took the seat, and yawned.

It seemed that he worked hard on Agnès' beautiful body last night.

Afterwards, the two generals who met Yoof Ma for the first time greeted each other and introduced each other, and the military meeting in front of the imperial government officially began.

The head of the Valois collateral line who helped Charles VII in charge of the king's army, the "illegitimate son" Jean de Dunois.

Marshal Boussac - Jean de Bros, a veteran in the French army who has been on the battlefield for a long time.

The cousin of the palace minister Georges La Tremoyer, the young Gilles de Re, was famous for his research on black magic and the murder of children, and was nicknamed "Bluebeard".

France's first warrior, Hearts J La Haier.

A shield dwarf mercenary leader from the mountains of Switzerland, Volgar Horn.

And Yoo Ma and Joan of Arc.

The French generals who were able to withdraw to Chalon were these people, and they were barely able to gather stars together.

However, no matter how many talents there are, if they cannot unify their minds, and if they are twisted together, they will only cause more trouble than the mediocre.

Charles VII first revealed to the generals and marshals that the English might raid Chalons.Then, Dinoy also told everyone the news he got from London.

Charles VII asked everyone if he needed to send more troops to Chalon to ensure the smooth progress of the peace talks.

Then, endless quarrels began.

"Our fortress defense line in the border area between Champagne and Ile de France is foolproof. Maybe a small group of troops can sneak in and loot, but it is impossible for a large group to silently cross the defense line and raid Chalon!" La Haier said proudly. , "I will tear every Englishman who dares to attack in half!"

Chapter 96 Sharon Conference

The French No. [-] warrior was short-tempered, otherwise he wouldn't have the nickname "La Haile".He was so confident in his own strength and army that even Joan of Arc could not easily persuade him to change his mind.

With a dry cough, Charles VII took out the Viking equipment seized in the battle of the forest outside Troyes and showed it to the generals. He also provided the testimony of the knights who participated in the war, and then told them that there might be a mysterious viking. Beijing forces, to help the English.

The prestige of the king was obviously stronger than that of Yoof Ma, and the generals did not immediately question the absurd news.They scrutinized the armor and weapons of the Vikings before expressing their opinion.

"His Royal Highness, I think this is a ruse by the English to disturb the audience and attract attention. When we invest a lot of manpower to defend the river, it is very likely for us to concentrate our troops and raid the defense line." The young Marshal Gil said, "The so-called Mysterious Vikings, impossible to exist."

The seasoned and prudent Marshal Boussack believes that regardless of whether the Vikings exist, they should not change their defensive positions easily.

La Haier didn't say anything, just snorted lightly, expressing his contempt for the so-called Vikings.

Volgar Horn leaned on his short legs, enjoying the wine in his spare time.He is a mercenary, and he only needs to follow the orders of his employer, so why bother thinking about these strategic issues.

Yoo Ma knew that he couldn't argue with these generals about whether the Vikings were real or fake.He said: "Whether there are mysterious Vikings or not, the English did move a lot this winter, as evidenced by the fires and battles in Troyes and the intelligence sent back from London."

The generals nodded frequently, and the Imperial Military Conference finally reached the first consensus.

Youf Ma continued: "If that's the case, shouldn't we strengthen the defense of Chalon? Here are two monarchs who are very important in Europe and sign a far-reaching contract. If the English want to reverse the disadvantage, they can only Go all out and ruin it all."

"The English don't have the guts. The most likely thing they'll do is, while we're at Chalons, attack and expand the buffer between Paris and the front to build a stronger defence. Paris, it's the The key to the future of this war!" The proud Lahaier still insisted.

Jill changed his position and agreed with Ma Youfu's judgment: "I think the Count of Rouen's concern is justified. Your Highness, I am willing to lead the army back to defend Chalon. My defense zone can be handed over to Marshal Boussac."

The old marshal immediately objected: "No, if I want to take over your defense area, the force will be too weak, and it will give the English an opportunity. What's more, the convergence of the celestial spheres is still happening before the winter, and the defense force must be Leave enough margin to deal with emergencies."

"I agree with Marshal Boussack that the front-line army must not act rashly," said Charles VII.

If other generals were willing to return to defend Chalon, Charles VII might agree, but not Gilles de Rey.

Because he belongs to the Gong Xiang faction.

The king has become wary of the increasingly powerful Fatty George.He didn't want the second person of the Gong Xiang faction to participate in the Faber peace talks, which would go down in history, to gain prestige in vain.

But after rejecting Gilles de Rei, Charles VII has no reason to let other generals come to Chalon - isn't this an obvious distrust of the palace minister?

La Haier is proud and stubborn, Marshal Bussac is cautious, Jill's abacus crackles, Dinois is powerless, and Volgar sits and watches the play.Then Charles VII also had his own ideas for the balance of power.

This messy imperial military meeting is really a headache.

Yoo Ma sighed, winked at Jeanne, and decided to take a backup plan.

So the idol of the entire French army stood up and put forward a suggestion: "Everyone, since the front-line troops cannot be easily changed, is it feasible for each person to send a small force that will not affect the overall situation to support Chalon?"

Then, Yoo Ma saw how appealing Joan of Arc was in the French army.

Lahaire, Busac, and Gilles de Rezizi nodded, and readily agreed to send 300 people each, under the command of Joan of Arc, to strengthen the defense of Chalon.

Although he didn't get the best results, he didn't get anything for nothing. After the military meeting in front of the imperial court, Yoof Ma breathed a sigh of relief.

After attending the luncheon of Charles VII, the generals returned to their respective defense areas.However, Dinois remained, taking over command of the King's Guard and running the defense of Chalons.

Mayouf generously borrowed an interest-free loan of [-] livres to Dinoy, allowing him to recruit militiamen in the city of Chalon.
