Chapter 42: Blackmail (2)
The night is like water, which is different from the atmosphere of the killing of the Kujit camp camping outside the city. The night in the fortress of Samoir is very lively. The noisy noise can be heard by the Kugit people stationed outside the city. Inside the castle The red light reflecting the red sky made the Kugits puzzled.
The business area outside the military camp on the inner wall of the fortress is full of large and small tents. The vendors selling goods are comparable to an army of thousands of people. The business tents set up are like huge white umbrellas. , The water enclosed by the three large military camps in the castle is not drained,
The merchants in the business tent tried to wave all kinds of commodities in their hands, slobbering to sell their goods, from weapons and equipment to all kinds of fruits, the opposing goods almost filled the tent behind them.
On the left, there are dozens of tents lined with hundreds of meters of eating street. A pile of farmers and soldiers are happily colliding with the ale in their hands. A dozen gorgeous and charming Saxon dancers jump on the big round table in the center of the tent. Enthusiastic Saxon thigh dances, soldiers and peasants drinking nearby led by white long legs exposed under gorgeous silk cloth burst into excitement and shouted
Behind the military camp is the blacksmith area. Hundreds of blacksmith shops are divided into three rows. The fire inside is bright and bright. The tapping sound is like playing music. The crisp metal impact is violent at night, but it can be heard far away.
Nearly a thousand blacksmiths gathered from the three territories are building the latest weapons and equipment day and night. Flatbed carriages carrying ore are continuously transported into the dark iron ore from outside the castle gate, and then pass through the flat barracks. The stone road is transported into the blacksmith area,
The wide stone road can drive three carriages side by side at the same time. Piles of iron ore are unloaded from the flat carriage and piled into small black iron mountains.
These are all high-quality iron ore shipped from the Sagering Iron Mine ten miles away. The fat man arranged 1,000 refugees to work there, and the villagers near the licensed Sagering can use the carriage of one hundred horses to deduct this year. Tax,
The happy Sagering villagers used the leisurely evening to transport the iron ore. When they were lucky, they could run twice a night, and they could finish all the taxes for the whole year in 50 days. The villagers ran extremely fast, but it took only ten days to pile up the iron mountain in the back mountain warehouse in the blacksmith district.
The shuttle crowd, the bustling night market, the busy blacksmith, the Samo fortress did not see any tension before the war, and the crowd inside did not show that the Kugits would break this solid fortress. worry
After following the guards to the bedroom to rest, Kuget’s envoy, Serice, stopped and stood on the high hallway of the castle to get a glimpse of the lively scene below. The endless fire below reflected the red light of the sky one slice,
"Who are these people? What are they doing below?"
Looking at the scene of the heat and noise in the outer wall of the castle, Scelis didn't expect that she would see this scene in this tightly fortified fortress, which is not like a fortified fortress at all, but more like a bustling medium-sized town.
This time, Serice, who is the special envoy, is not only the negotiator of negotiations, but also the task of reconnaissance fortress defense,
"Earth and earth, the biggest meal!"
The Kurgit spies have long found out that several large grain-producing areas in the southern part of the Kingdom are transporting large quantities of grain to the Samoor Fortress. It is conservatively estimated that the grain accumulated in the fortress may exceed one million stones, enough for all the Kuji Special army eats for two years
For Siridis, who is in desperate need of food, this fat man who has so much food is a patron. As long as he can exchange one-third of the food from his hands, all the Kugits can be saved from hunger. Return to the prairie.
Silidis discovered that the formerly ruined Samoor fortress had been re-fortified by the Wikyas, and the tens of thousands of defenders mentioned in the report by the spy are still conservative estimates.
Looking only at the large army barracks covering nearly two miles below and the many soldiers walking back and forth, Silidis believes that there are at least 15,000 people,
If even the farmers and merchants stranded in the fortress count together, the strength of the fortress will definitely exceed the 20,000 mark
20,000! Scelis shuddered in her heart, holding the five thin fingers of the sapphire handle
Almost two-thirds of the total number of Kugit’s southern invasion troops, and the soldiers are all dressed in good mail, even when drinking, they don’t forget to put their weapons in the range they can get at any time, and the weapons flash under the nearby torches. Red light
Although the following is noisy, there are still dozens of soldiers patrolling nearby in an orderly manner. Scelis knows from these that these are not ordinary peasants, but trained professional soldiers,
Selice secretly weighed herself. There were no more than 15,000 elite Kugit warriors. The thought of capturing this fortified and heavily guarded fortress is simply a fool's dream, and it must be the most elite steel armor warrior.
The main force of the Kugits has fallen into the quagmire of the siege of Krysdor in Kyoto, and it is impossible to deploy excess forces to attack a fortified stronghold,
Even a cavalry corps stationed in the town of Hittero was only brought by Scelis from the royal court. King Kugit had a strict order, even if all these people were hacked by the fortress, that corps It is absolutely not allowed to attack the fortress without authorization, because that is the last cavalry unit guarded by King Cogit
This is also the helpless background that Scelis came to negotiate. If there are tens of thousands of soldiers in his hand, the Kugits have already started to attack Samo, and there is still a need to negotiate with Samo fortress
Full of confidence, Scelis did not expect that the fat Samo, who had a lot of food in her hands, had no consciousness of redemption. Instead, she put on a rogue face that only recognized money, which made Scelis, who was in charge, feel a headache. ,
The Kugits robbed a lot of money this time, but most of it was in the hands of the left guard king who was responsible for the roundabout outsourcing, and a part of it fell in the hands of the deputy commander of the royal guard, Prince Stan, and then left in the end. The Wang Ting Guard has at most 600,000 yuan,
Wang Ting puts more emphasis on the number of captives in his hands. That is the golden pimples that can be exchanged for large amounts of gold coins. Instead of marching with heavy goods, it is better to take the golden pimples who can walk by themselves.
However, Scelis now finds that Wang Ting is wrong. The king of the Vecchia is usually surrounded by iron barrels. The 200,000 Vecchia defenders inside are worse than the Kugits. It is said that they have eaten At the human level, it is impossible to take out food,
And the Samoor stronghold that holds food is not interested in these captives at all, which makes the more than one hundred noble captives consume nothing but their own food, but it is also useless waste.
The fat man did not know the pride of the Kugit people. The news that the son of the famous eagle fell three months ago in the mountain of Sodalai in the southern part of the kingdom has caused a lot of shock to the high level of Kugit.
The central radicals headed by King Zuowei believed that the hills in the southern mountains were numerous, which was not conducive to large-scale cavalry warfare, and it was easy to be ambushed by the cunning Wikyas. Attacking the south itself was a wrong plan.
Now advocates that the south goes to Prince Kutan to reverse the prince of Sas to confirm this speculation with his own life is correct
On the suggestion of Zuowei Wang, who advocated the capture of the central part, Wang Ting had to abandon the plan to divide his troops south, and concentrate his forces to make full progress in the central part.
If the fat of Samoer knew that it was his unintentional move, the Kugits gave up this plan that might conquer the whole of Vickia, I don’t know what it would be.
Selice knew from the Wiki runner-up that she intercepted two months ago that her opponent, Prince Kutan, was in the hands of the sloppy fat man Samo,
And now, judging from the hot construction inside the Samoor Fortress, the large amount of property plundered by Kutan against the Sars is estimated to have not escaped the dead palm of this fat fat man.
"Kutan is a big fool who has been working hard for half a year, and has picked up a weak fat man who can't help but be a shame!"
wants money and money, food and food, and has tens of thousands of elite troops in his hand. If he is afraid, he will not control the life and death of the captured nobles.
Selice sighed secretly in her heart, this time the task is really not easy to handle
"Those who are the refugees and businessmen who have been settled by my adults are always so enthusiastic. Such trade activities usually last until the end of the day. I hope these people will not disturb the rest of the envoy?"
The guards who led the way saw the sadness on Scelis's face, and thought they had offended the envoy, and answered quickly and respectfully,
"Businessmen? Why do these businessmen appear in the fortress?"
Hearing the guard’s explanation, Sacelis’ face was even more puzzled
"Our adults say that the army wants to eat, weapons, and materials. These businessmen can provide us with these things we need, and we can also give things that we don't need or loot to these merchants. This is a one-stop move. The benefit of both can save us a lot of unnecessary costs! Our adults say this is a one-stop service!"
"One-stop service? Food? Shoucheng supplies? Merchants? Deal with loot? Need to be supplied at any time! Transport yourself? What does that mean?"
Silidis tried to connect the information in her mind, and her mind was in a mess
The modern "one-stop" service is the product of a certain stage of business development. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is a complicated enough headache for the Kugit people who have no business consciousness, even for smart For Celice, it’s also a complicated relationship
That night, Scelis in the dream saw arrows, stones, and rolling wood falling on the head of her army like raindrops from the high walls of Samoir.
A team of businessmen braved dangerous arrows to continue to transport various materials to the city tower. The amount of the defending materials for the fortress was higher than that of the previous one, and the body of the Kugit warrior under his command was higher than the city wall.
The blood of bright red humans bleeds out a blood river under his feet. A frivolous fat man was picking the meat flakes in his teeth with a small wooden stick in his hand. He stood contemptuously and smiled at himself on the city wall.
"what"
This incredible scene made Scelis make a clear scream, sitting up and realizing she had a nightmare,
"The dream just now should be a one-stop service in the mouth of the soldier! A city-defense force can get supplies from the supplier at any time. Is this battle still to be fought?"
Scelis murmured secretly, got up and came to the castle window, pushed open the wooden window frame, there was a loud entertainment outside the window, and suddenly a night wind blew, Scelis felt that she was chilling behind, with a white flourish With a touch of your hand, cold sweat wet the clothes on the back.
On the next day, the negotiations on food were still inaugurated in the Samoir hall
"Except for captives, we can talk about other conditions! I am a kind person, I believe there is nothing in this world that cannot be changed, just see if you have this value"
Silidis saw the fat man who had just finished breakfast and walked in with a stomach full of satisfaction, while picking his teeth with a toothpick in his hand, with a smirk in the dream of last night
