Warhammer Throne

When François' army moved into Olengrad, Ryan and Emilia's central army also arrived on the south bank of the Linsk River, in the ruins of the city of Zorn, which had fought fiercely before.

The long cloak of the knight king swept across the snow. The whole land left a very disturbing scene. There were corpses everywhere on the snowy field. François’ army didn’t have time to bury the corpses and cremation. This was the end. The most important thing the guards of 10,000 men did during the Northern Expedition was to bury the cremation of various corpses, and the Lake God and Witches led by Mogiana prayed to disperse the corruption.

"Come! Come! Hurry up! Hurry up!" The old guard commander Bertrand urged the two old guards' swordsmen to move faster. The imperial lady's carriage broke down in the muddy swamp, with wheels. One dropped, and now the four Blackstone guards are carrying Emilia's luxury carriage together, and the old guards are putting the wheels back in the rotten ground.

"François has entered Erlengrad?" Emilia wore a long Nurgot crimson silk sling dress today with a thick winter white fox fur trench coat, and then she also paid in addition to the trench coat. Wearing a black-gold and fleece cloak, the heraldic pattern of the golden crown and Libra on the black background is shining.

Emilia's height is not as tall as Su Liya, but the proportions are also very well-proportioned. Since returning to Noor, she has spent a lot of energy to shape herself. The long and thin white calves under the long skirt are wrapped in thick black velvet. Inside the pantyhose, stepping on the black suede short boots, the slightly raised arch and the slender stocking ankles form a graceful arc. The **** and small white toes are close together, appearing dexterous and dignified.

"Well, yes." Ryan handed the battle report to Emilia, which was François' report on the course of these wars.

Emilia glanced at it. The Queen of the Empire is actually not very high in military affairs, but she certainly can’t show weakness in front of Ryan: “It’s a very good fight. Now the border of Kislov, at least the upper reaches of Olengrad. The chaos army has been eliminated."

Ryan just smiled when he heard the words. The King of Knight was familiar with Emilia. He watched the two old guards put the wheels of the carriage with all their strength and motioned Emilia to continue.

"It's just a bit conservative. François had two chances to completely wipe out the army of Hal-Eternal Eye." Sure enough, Emilia had something to say. The Queen of the Empire took the battle report: "The first time. When chasing in the forest, facing the appearance of the demon army, he retreated. The second time was the Battle of the Linsk River, facing the Tecchi army, which had less than 1,000 people left to cross the river. François could clearly lead the knight in pursuit, but he gave up again, too conservative."

Ryan still smiled silently.

Emilia suddenly felt a sense of IQ being despised. The Queen of the Empire stomped her feet and splashed a large swath of snowflakes. She said softly, "This style of play is too conservative. He always leaves a little tail at the end. This is to preserve strength!"

"The warrior has nothing to do with him." Ryan watched Emilia for a minute before the Knight King said: "Believe it or not, if I replace Francois with Commander Berhemond, Red Dragon The Duke must be able to wipe out the remnants of the Eye of Eternity, and personally take care of the strange choice?"

"Then why don't you..." Emilia asked incomprehensibly.

"But if you do this, you will lose more than two thousand people!" Ryan took the military newspaper and gently knocked on Emilia's head. The Knight King shook his head: "This is what I agree with Francois. I understand him because of the previous reason. He started the war smoothly. Although he did not look good, he was able to win. Although the enemy escaped a little bit, his own casualties were few. We fought thousands of miles away from the border, and the main force of Chaos has been After being wiped out, are we fighting for the army? We are fighting for logistics and support!"

Emilia stopped talking immediately.

"The vast snowy field, a rotten land, and the cold winter, in this environment, as long as it is not handled well, the loss of non-combat attrition is much greater than the loss of combat attrition." Ryan continued, the King of Knights carrying his hands on his back, his dark blue Looking at the white snowy field, he sighed: "Otherwise, how can the Chaos Army be so difficult to deal with? If I really plan to solve the battle quickly, then our guards should be the forward, and I will fight and destroy it myself. The Chaos Remnant Army is."

"But if this is the case, how much will the guards we have cultivated so hard to lose? These soldiers are all trained and selected one by one!"

When Ryan finished speaking, everyone in the vicinity nodded in convincing conviction.

"Anyway, I am the commander in name. The command is with you. How you like to command and command. I have never hindered you." Emilia was still ruthless, but the Queen of the Empire obviously accepted Ryan's statement. , The once little maid’s eyes were full of little stars, even though she was the mother of two children, she still admired Ryan like the little maid back then: “What next? Let’s enter Olengrad like this? Announcing us Will this city be rebuilt?"

"You must enter the city." Ryan thought for a while, and then said: "It's almost the same. The army under Rokosovsky and the Ugol army in Beria are about to arrive in Norden."

"As for how to arrange things for Erlengrad, let's talk about it when we enter the city." Ryan glanced at the endless snowfield again, and sighed in his heart.

Ryan's original plan was to clear the surrounding area after occupying Olengrad, but now it seems almost impossible to do so.

He knew that he must not repeat Napoleon's invasion of Russia. In his previous life, the first French Empire, which was at its peak, prepared a total of 620,000 people to conquer Russia.

In the end, when he withdrew more than 20,000 remnants from the ice and snow, he lost a total of nearly 500,000 troops, 250,000 horses and 1,000 cannons. The guards of more than 20,000 men were left to fight for the rear of the palace. Thousands of people.

Nahuang won every battle in the process of entering the border and retreating, but he still ended up like this. Ryan took a lesson.

The problem facing Ryan is much simpler than the problem facing Nahuang.

Mrs. Keisler felt that the Knight Kingdom was here to help them restore their homeland. Ryan received a lot of support and love from Mrs. Keisler. As long as Ryan didn’t tear up his personal settings, Mrs. Keesler would worship him and support him. .

But Kieslov’s winter is really terrible, and news from everywhere indicates that he and his army are exhausted.

The logistical problems are also getting more and more serious. The empire is no longer able to provide Ryan with the military supplies to continue fighting. The supply line is getting longer and longer and passing through the occupied area.

Solve the problem as soon as possible!

Four days later, Ryan personally led the Guards into the ruins of Olengrad.

Seeing that the originally huge bronze gate has collapsed, all streets, temples, residential areas, factories, and ports and piers have all turned into ruins. The former glory of Olengrad for thousands of years has not escaped bad luck, and the barbarians have plundered it. Plundered and destroyed all valuable things.

However, at this time, there were already tens of thousands of Mrs. Kiesler gathered in the city. They were hiding in various places. Mrs. Kiesler, who was hiding in the Groward forest and mountains, hurried back after receiving François news. In the city, they lined up to pay the highest respect to Ryan!

"Chivalrous Knight King, you and your army restored our homeland for us!" An old Kislov came up, and he offered fresh Leba and salt to Ryan: "Please use."

"Thank you." Ryan stretched out his hand to take it, and personally enjoyed a bit, then he raised his hand, and the whole city burst into thunderous cheers, and people called the knight Wang Renyi Wushuang, the prestigious name.

That night, Frost House Hotel, former Olengrad Shilavik headquarters.

The skeleton of the burnt down Frost Cold House is still there, and François repaired it slightly so that it won't leak everywhere.

Everyone in the room sat down to celebrate another victory. François raised Snow Goose Vodka and said to Ryan: "Your Majesty, what are we going to do next? Are we going to clean up all the chaos remnants around Olengrad? ?"

"If I can, I would love to do this." Ryan said helplessly: "But the situation doesn't allow it."

The Knight King took out another letter from Emperor Karl-Franz.

The logistics of the empire could no longer be sustained. The Emperor Kas apologized in his letter and stated that Ryan’s decision to enter Kislov was an unplanned matter. The emperor could not persuade the Imperial Council or Lord Rick’s Great Council to continue to serve as the knight army. For the Northern Expedition to provide materials, at most one month, the logistics supply will be completely interrupted. At that time, if Ryan intends to fight in Kislov, he must try to raise food by himself.

Everyone looked very ugly after listening. Although Erlengrad was regained, there were chaos remnants and barbarian raiders everywhere. If you want to clear them out, it will take several months or even two or three years. The long and frequent security wars.

"So we have to evacuate?" François was very upset, and the old man directly spread his hands: "Very well, you have seen the situation in Olengrad now. It is in ruins. If we evacuate, this is equivalent to Undefended, Ryan, do you really think you can hold this place by yourself with Mrs. Keisler?"

"Two things." Ryan said calmly: "The first thing, in a few days, Rokosovsky’s Kislov Army, including Beria’s Ugol Army, will arrive here. At that time, we will discuss the issue of the garrison with them."

"The second thing is to try to convene the nearby Kislov refugees, and within two weeks, immediately start the referendum process, establish the Olengrad Grand Duchy, and rebuild the Duma."

"So, who will be the Grand Duke?" François then asked: "First of all, it is definitely not our Bretons who will be here. No Mrs. Keesler will accept it. No matter how we help them, come to them. Say we are all outsiders, but what if we let a Kislov native come out of control?"

"We didn't intend to control this city politically." Ryan shook his head: "We just provide military protection and obtain sufficient economic benefits. In any case, Olengrad is the land of Kislov. Tallinn possesses legal principles. Any attempt to reclaim the Grand Duchy of Olengrad as a servant state or even merge into Bretania will inevitably meet fierce opposition from Mrs. Kiesler and even the empires. This breaks the balance. move."

François nodded lightly when he heard the words, and the old man thought that Ryan no longer needed to remind himself.

"So, to put it simply, we need such a person." Ryan continued: "He must have the determination to rejuvenate Kislov, he must have sufficient command and internal abilities, and he must be willing to reach an agreement with us. In the transaction, we provide him with a part of the army to assist in defending the city and not to interfere with his administration, and he must ensure that our economic interests are not lost and can withstand the pressure of the female czar. Within a week, he must find a partner of this kind. , And then we helped him publicize and make him succeed in the referendum."

Cooperative partner? François' eyes lit up, and he suddenly sounded that Vladimir, the Priest of Ursun, who was tough, strong in command, excellent in personal bravery, extremely disappointed in the female czar, and very personal prestige.

He still remembers those famous words of Priest Erson.

"It is a god's job to forgive the barbarians, the only thing we have to do is to send them to see their own evil god!"

"I will never forgive the **** Yankee under any circumstances. If you meet the Yankee in the toilet, I will drown him in the pit!"

"What about Rokosovsky's Kislov army?" Emilia asked. The empire can't do military affairs, but the administration immediately realized that this is a huge hidden danger: "It's hard for you It took so much energy to rescue them, so let go?"

"It must be impossible." Ryan smiled: "I will reform this army."

"Restructuring?" Morjana was interested.

"They will have a new name, Olengrad Guards!" Ryan smiled: "As for my guards, there will also be a new organization, the Breton Royal No. 1 Guards Gun. Cavalry! I will give them a new flag with red and white stripes."

"What do you mean is to draw the elite of this army into our army and establish a new organization?" François understood: "Very good!"

"Restructuring and reorganization can ensure that we will not lose control of this army." Ryan nodded, and the Knight King finally said tiredly after saying this: "The question now is, how can we slow down after our main force leaves? Slowly drive the barbarians and tribes in the snowy fields, wilderness, and forests out of the land near Erlengrad? If everything depends on us to help from the homeland, even the kingdom’s finances will be dragged down."

Everyone is silent, this is indeed a very troublesome question.

After a small meeting, Emilia told Ryan that she was going to have a small meeting with Noor’s generals, and Mogiana would also go to perform a prayer ritual to expel the corruption. Ryan was alone in the Frost House. Take an after-dinner walk outside the hotel.

He is still thinking about how to use all his power to the greatest extent, to ensure that after he leaves, this land can gradually be free from the influence of chaos and barbarians. The north of the old world needs a barrier and buffer zone.

After a few steps, a familiar footstep sounded from the side accompanied by the sound of crutches, and the high-precision lame limped close on the crutches: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, do you have troubles, do you need my help? "

"Talerand, is there anything you can do to help me?" Ryan looked at the lame man and couldn't help but smiled: "I heard that military strategy is not your specialty."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I have never been good at military affairs. To be honest, the wind and snow here make me uncomfortable." Talleyrand also squeezed a smile. He was so cold that he shivered in the snowy night: " But if you can trust me, I think I can still provide you with some suggestions. I guess you must be troubled if you stay, the long war of security will drag down your army and your finances, if you leave , Then it may be difficult for Mrs. Keisler to expel the chaotic remnants entrenched nearby by her own strength?"

"Yeah, Talleyrand, do you have any good suggestions?" Ryan nodded.

"I have an immature suggestion, Your Majesty." Talleyrand shook his head and said, "Have you heard of...staking the horse?"

"Enclosure?"
