Zongman: Became the owner of Uesugi at the beginning

"Yeah..." Everyone agreed at this moment, and if there is a step, hurry down, didn't you see that person was so angry that he couldn't choose what to say.

Xia Ge felt helpless, and now he clearly realized one thing, the aristocratic class is unimaginably compromising, and to give them a good face is to find guilt for themselves.

"I should have sent the military disciplinary record to everyone. I know that the mistakes made by the soldiers are difficult to blame on you. But if the circumstances are serious, don't think about the gold mine share."

"This should be what we deserve for sending troops." Someone complained that his troops had violated the most discipline before.

Xia Ge said calmly: "I mean to distribute the deducted part to the good performers."

He pushes the contradiction back inside them.

The system of this country is somewhat deformed. The social situation that should have been aristocratic enfeoffment was forced to complete the centralization due to Teigu and Transcendental reasons. The troops directly under the center are managed by hierarchical official ranks, and the local nobles are small military groups with the nature of private troops. , Local troops need the prefect's permission.But after Noren's death, the center has not sent a new prefect, and they are left alone.

The current environment in Beijun is quite complicated. From the perspective of God, the political opponents seized the opportunity to wipe out their forces while the ministers were retreating. It has become a contradiction between the local and the central, so the Northern Expedition is imperative.

Ornest was watching, because the process of ascending to power was not clean, he was looking forward to a victory to stabilize his position, and the nobles and officials could clearly see that dirty thing.Otherwise, the morale will not plummet, and the emperor will be like hell in a few years.

The other two counties are also waiting and watching. If they win, they will get a share of the land on the north side. There is not much, but they are free prostitutes. If they lose, they will arrest the criminals and take charge of the territory. There is also the Marquis of South, and the military strength is almost the sum of the other two counties. After losing, the form may change.

Down there, the guy who protested before had a quarrel with the countess, and the two were arguing about whose fault was more serious. The countess was blamed for the viscount's mistakes, and of course she didn't want to.

"Go back and argue again, that's all for today." Xia Ge waved his hand in a disinterested manner.

After everyone else left, South asked, "Are you really going to fight to the end?"

Xia Ge was puzzled: "Hasn't someone asked this question before?"

"In their eyes, as long as there is a real fight, it will be the end. You know, Beijun hasn't used a weapon for many years."

Xia Ge's face darkened, could he get a share of the gold mine by walking around outside the Great Wall together?There is also a limit to whimsical ideas.

The army marched northward at a speed of about a hundred miles a day, and set up camp near water sources every afternoon, while avoiding areas with lush vegetation.

Half a month later, a majestic city appeared in front of my eyes. It was like a giant beast lying on its back, with vicissitudes and simple aura, it was the frontier of the northern border, and it was also the empire's reliance against the alien races in the north.

A woman with ice-blue hair waited quietly on the horizon on a horse, behind a thousand faceless men standing like statues.

Estes Ballust, currently the youngest general in the empire.

"Button it, who taught you to dress like this."

Esther's hole tightened, and he looked sideways, Xia Ge didn't know when he appeared beside her.

Chapter 110 Numa Seka

"It grows very fast, and I can't help it. It's too troublesome to change clothes all the time." Estes said with a little show off. She didn't expect that her development seemed to have potential. If it was before, she might still feel Some things get in the way and affect the action, but now they have a place to use.

"Butt it up, you don't think it's elegant to dress like this." Xia Ge's face darkened, and this guy became confident when he went outside. It seemed that he had found his position in the food chain through abuse.

Indeed, even if she is only 16 years old, she can be regarded as an irreproachable powerhouse in the empire, especially after professional training.

"Okay..." Estes bowed her head and fastened the button after she finished speaking. She hadn't done this before, and this was a special preparation for someone.

After all, she had figured out some of the other party's temperament when she was in the castle, and the response is not bad so far. It would be over if she said she was really beautiful when they met.

"Where's the army?" Estes asked.

"I only brought the Faceless Men and cavalry, a total of 6000 people. I plan to set up an outpost camp outside the Great Wall. The main force is still on the way. Their speed is too slow." Xia Ge replied.

"What do I need to do?" Estes knew that the other party must have something to order when he contacted him in advance.

"The logistics will be gathered here, and you will be responsible for food security."

The nobles have formed a network through long-term marriages. As long as the funds are sufficient, there is no need to worry about the amount of food and grass after the autumn harvest.

But the supply lines are too scattered, and they need to be integrated before starting the war. Esdeth is here to watch Xia Ge at ease.

"Understood, but there are only [-] regular soldiers in the fortress, and only [-] are dispatched by me. Many shares in the establishment have been divided by the nobles."

What Esthers meant was that a considerable part of the private army of the nobles was the original fortress soldiers, and the frontier fortress could not afford to support them, so they had to resort to this strategy. Among them, North County, which had the most economic development, ate the most.

Of course, the embezzlement of military expenditures by the governor and other high-level officials is also one of the important reasons. Nobles must give gifts if they want to get soldiers.

"There are two thousand faceless men who are also in charge of logistics, under your command."

"Then it's fine."

Dust was flying in the distance, dense hoofbeats and heavy trampling sounded, and the vanguard quickly approached the fortress, and Xia Ge's figure suddenly disappeared.

Upon seeing this, Esdeth returned to the fortress to prepare manpower, and he had to talk to the governor about this matter.But there is no room for him to refuse, the guy who only wants to make money should be okay, he will build a camp later.

……

The temperature outside the Northland Fortress is very low, and it is still autumn in the territory, but the cold wind is already blowing here, and the pastures will gradually fade in this season.

Once it snows in winter, the foreign races will almost completely lose their food sources.At this time, the livestock that have been raised for a year will be put to use. As a supplement, looting south is also an important way to store supplies.

Beyond the Great Wall, the sky is high and the land is far away, and the field of vision is extremely wide. Xia Ge knew that when the Vanguard Army set foot on this land, they had already been discovered by scouts from other nations. The pressure of survival put them in a completely different state from the empire.

The vanguard marched along the largest Doma River outside the Great Wall, and began to set up camp in the afternoon. Due to the scarcity of trees, they could only build earth walls, so the speed slowed down, but it was better to wait for the main force to catch up.

The capital of the alien fortress, Bator City.

Bordering the empire for a long time, foreign nations have borrowed from the empire’s organizational methods to a certain extent. At this time, they are no longer true nomads, and they are developing towards centralization at an unimaginable speed. The nobles of foreign nations have moved into the city , only civilians live in those nomadic packs.

In the main hall in the center of the capital, the walls are plain and even uneven. The two rows of large braziers in the hall exude warmth. An old man squints his eyes and sits on a large animal skin chair, as if he could fall asleep at any time.

The red-cheeked strong man knelt down on one knee and said, "My lord, the imperial army has already walked out of the frontier and is currently advancing slowly along the Doma River. According to the news from Anzi in the frontier fortress, the opponent’s logistics battalion has been selected near Saicheng, and there are less than 50 soldiers in the banner of the [-] army.”

The old man shook his head and laughed. It's really not that he looked down on the empire. That giant is certainly terrifying.But the roots are already riddled with holes. It is obligatory for officials and friendly troops from all over the country to help cover up the movement and scale, but now it is completely sold.

"A request..."

"This year's raid takes care of his opponent's territory."

The old man nodded slightly, it’s fine to get rid of small things together, there are many nobles who lined up for cooperation, there is no need to care about the life or death of one or two.

"Do you want to fight?" The old man deliberately asked the young man on the seat next to him. It is hard to imagine someone sitting side by side with the leader of an organization when he was still alive.

In the hands of manpower, it is simply that he doesn't die fast enough.

But in fact, the old man really felt a little distressed that he was still alive, and he was a little unwilling to die casually. The young man was his son.

No one can surpass him in both martial arts and strategy. The high priest in the clan predicted that he would overthrow the empire and lead the nation to glory.

His Highness' civil and military officials are habitually silent. They know who the future leader will be, and they also know that everything is done on purpose by the old man. At the same time, they are also full of expectations for the future.

"No..." Numa Seka said.

"Okay..." The old man shouted with a smile. His inclination is to fight. After all, he can't cheer up the spirit of the empire, but since his son says no to fight, then he won't fight.

"Your Highness is wise." Wen and Wu echoed in unison. When a person is always right, then his words are full of credibility, and it must be his own fault if he doesn't understand.

Numa Seka watched the scene helplessly, though not for the first time.But after all, it is still difficult to get used to, and the weight of this trust puts him under a lot of pressure.

"The size of the Southern Rebel Army in the Empire continues to grow. Ornest's coup has undoubtedly fueled the fire. They formed an alliance with us a few days ago. At this time, they just need to wait quietly and put pressure on the Empire when necessary. However, when Bude dies, the rebel army will probably formally rebel. At the worst, we can get the northern border. This time, the imperial army will first see where they go. If the supply line is too long, try again. It will take time The longer it takes, the more logistical pressure they will have, and it is not worthwhile or necessary to take the initiative to meet the enemy, I think relying on the fortress to build a line of defense is almost the same.”

Numa Seka feels that he still likes to be more stable.Because he couldn't go wrong, and it wasn't the right time to get the Empire's attention.It is very dangerous to just stay at the level of border troubles, and the rebels should be allowed to rush forward first.

Looting is the inevitable result of the lack of supplies, otherwise he would not even send cavalry.

"Your Highness is wise."

It’s still flattery, which makes Numa frown a little. The fattest sheep will be the first to be targeted by wolves. A great reputation is not necessarily a good thing. The empire may think that he is a threat and deal with him first.

But he can't do anything, his mouth grows on other people, so he can't just kill someone for saying good things.

But with the inheritance habits of other nations, Zang Zhuo couldn't survive this time at all.

Chapter 110 Four Victory

In the middle reaches of the Doma River, the Faceless Man and the cavalry stood behind Shager. The scattered scouts sent back news, and Earl stepped forward to report.

"My lord, the front left is the southern defense line of the aliens. Our main road troops have arrived at the camp we left a week ago."

Looking far into the distance, Xia Ge could see dense camps with jagged teeth. The enemy had established a solid line of defense relying on several big cities. Water was even sprinkled on the earth walls. As they continued to march, the weather became colder and colder, and the earth walls became Hard fortifications.

"Earl, do you know what is most indispensable for foreign nations to survive outside the Great Wall?"

Earl lowered his head slightly. His answer may not be correct, and if he is right, the other party may not be satisfied.

And he has long passed the age of obsessing about right and wrong, so he said sincerely: "Villains don't know."

"It's boring, it's the source of water."

Xia Ge waved his whip, and the steed continued to accelerate, "Continue to go north, along the Doma River, and we will go to the place where the three rivers converge. There is an important town there. If you capture it, you will have to face it."

The winter in the North is very cold and there are many plains. The river is easy to freeze and the thickness is extremely deep. Only the largest Doma River is fast enough. Before the first snow in the North, this is the best gap.

And this snow probably won't come for the whole winter, a certain dragon king made a responsible statement about it.

"Yes……"

……

The source of the river is usually not as majestic as it is after rushing. Three slender rivers flow down slowly from the snow-capped mountains, and then converge at a tidal flat to form the Doma River. As the temperature gradually drops, the flat middle and lower reaches will also freeze. This became an important water reserve, and a military town was built nearby.

However, it snows every year in the north, and here is more responsible for combat readiness.

This place is already considered to be in the belly of a foreign nation, on the left side of the capital, theoretically the front line of defense can send troops back to surround the enemy entering the urn at any time.But the rapid march of the Faceless Man and the cavalry was very fast, and they never gave each other a chance.

The faceless men have a stronger load capacity, so they carry the food for the vanguard, which reduces the logistical pressure a lot.

"Why do they dare to come out?" Xia Ge looked at the neatly lined up infantry in front and the cavalry starting to step on the flanks.

"Maybe it's because we don't have many people." Earl responded beside him.

"Then just run over it."

The enemy is only tens of thousands of people, there is no need to be cautious at all, and the main knowledge and color combination did not find anything unusual.

The faceless men leaned forward in unison, and at the same time drew out the huge sabers on their backs. Their movements were uniform throughout the process, and then they charged forward like wild beasts.

The black torrent swept out with unstoppable power. The phalanx on the opposite side seemed to be stagnant for a moment, and then advanced towards the torrent. The half-blood cavalry of one's own side and the cavalry of the opponent's flanks fought hand-to-hand. Usually, whose cavalry won, Whoever occupies the victory, the cavalry inserting from the side and rear of the enemy's main force is enough to cause the situation to collapse instantly.

Unfortunately, when the cavalry was just preparing for a fierce battle, the frontal troops of the foreign nation collapsed. A tall general brandished a spear and swiped left and right. The blow with all his strength finally pierced through the chest of a faceless man.

But to his desperation, the faceless man ignored the spear, and directly used the opponent's forward momentum to open his arms and hug his body. In just a split second, the faceless men around rushed up and stabbed him. Hacked.

"Anti-God Evil God"

The general's head rolled randomly on the ground, and the Faceless Man didn't use it to break down the morale of the opponent, because he didn't need it.

The noise and silence of the two sides formed a stark contrast. The pressure brought by the silence accelerated the speed of the enemy's collapse. This kind of monster of steel and iron should not appear on the battlefield. The enemy's soldiers will die if they make a move. The advantage of coming is too great.
