King’s Kingdom - Chapter 283
The Kingdom of Rhine is preparing for war step by step, and Theodosius has also successfully shifted the focus of his life from conspiracy and seduction to military knights. With the strengthening of knights’ focus, Theodosius’ personal combat ability has risen from 65 points It was sixty-nine.
In fact, in the final analysis, if it wasn’t for the fact that he accidentally chose the wrong focus three years ago (here, it was changed from five years to three years), he now estimates that he would have ordered five or six skill points. In addition to his military center of gravity experience, his genius strategist trait can also bring about a 40% increase in military center of gravity experience. This trait is basically born for the military center of gravity.
Sure enough, under the blessing of the genius strategist trait, the daily military focus experience points he obtained did not increase slowly. At the current rate, the first skill can be tapped in two months.
The king’s birthday is a very important day in a monarchy country. On this day, the entire Rhine Kingdom spontaneously celebrates the king’s birthday, which is equivalent to a festival second only to the Creation Day.
Citizens and farmers use their accumulated money to buy some good food and luxuries that they are reluctant to buy in peacetime to celebrate this happy day.
The businessmen are also in a carnival. Today’s business activities are several times more frequent than usual. As long as you have a little brain, you can make a lot of money on this day by doing some promotions and discounts to celebrate His Majesty’s birthday. Full bowl.
Theodosius reluctantly found that his birthday seemed to be the same as later generations, and it became a gimmick for businessmen and capitalists. Just like the so-called “Goddess Festival”, the shopping attribute has long suppressed its commemorative significance.
However, Theodosius did not stop this. He did not pay enough attention to his birthday. Besides, because of a birthday, business activities became more frequent, and it was not a bad thing to provide more income to the country.
As long as those things are more sacred and more important, such as the establishment of the Rhine Kingdom, don’t make these gimmicks, then Theodosius will not drop his iron fist.
This commercial atmosphere lasted for a long time, until ten days had passed since Theodosius’ birthday, that is, April 12, 869 in the Hircati calendar, and it was only slightly reduced.
But even if they don’t stop all kinds of gimmicks and discounts, Theodosius will help them decently, because he decides to formally submit a declaration of war against the Northern Empire three days later, when the Rhine Kingdom will enter a state of war.
He will dispatch 40,000 link troops to the front line to join the battle, and the remaining more than 50,000 link troops will also be assembled and stationed in various castles, cities, and strategically important towns under the deployment of their respective commanders. Carry out patrols to prevent monsters and lawbreakers from taking this opportunity to make waves.
As the capital of the Lanyin Kingdom, New Lanyin City is naturally the top priority of national security. In addition to the 400 city guards equipped with full-body chain armor, there will be 5,000 link troops stationed to maintain law and order and take precautions The accident happened. In addition, there were more than 200 guards composed of young noble children in the main castle of the palace. The entire New Lanyin City, especially the palace, can be said to be impregnable.
In addition, as early as more than a month ago, Theodosius sent the news to the kingdom of Milos on the grasslands, the father-in-law of the king of Lanyin, the hands of Beauliet Khan.
His son-in-law was strong and strong, and his daughter was pregnant. Naturally, Borret Khan readily agreed to send troops to launch a war against the Northern Empire. After all, although the two sides were not allies in name, their relationship was much stronger than this ally.
Critidos is the only daughter of Boret Khan and the only heir to the kingdom of Milos, and she is the wife of Theodosius, which means that the children of the two must inherit these two countries. , to become the common monarch of both countries.
Under such a relationship, to be able to lay a larger territory for the unborn little guy has become Polet Khan’s greatest wish.
And what pleased Theodosius most was that Polet Khan said in his reply that he could mobilize 4,000 heavily armed steppe hussars and more than 8,000 steppe levies.
If not to leave enough warriors to guard the country’s territory, even more cavalry can be drawn to participate in the war.
Although not all the cavalry people in the battle sequence of the hussars are cavalry, absolutely everyone can ride a horse, which means that they can supplement the situation that the cavalry troops of the Lanyin Kingdom are not enough.
Of course, the fact that there are not enough cavalry units is only relatively speaking. Although the real cavalry units in the Lanyin Kingdom are only 1,502, they are all rare elites.
Although the Northern Empire raised a group of cavalry troops composed of knights and retinues of more than two to four or five thousand people due to the division of the title, the quality of such cavalry was often uneven due to the wealth of the fiefs and the different bloodlines. .
In addition to two-thirds of the Knights of the Lanyin Kingdom being Ortbans, the remaining one-third also have various bloodlines, and their innate characteristics are quite excellent. Each person’s actual combat ability exceeds 20. Five o’clock.
But the Northern Empire is different. Although most of their knights have their own bloodlines, the selection is not as strict as that of the Lanyin Kingdom, and some poorer knights even only have a set of full-body chain armor, and the rest of the body is not Must be able to get together.
In addition, they are in their own fiefs on weekdays, and there are not many opportunities for concentrated training, so their ability to cooperate in combat is far less than the knights of the Lanin Kingdom.
The most important point~www.mtlnovel.com~ Among the four or five thousand cavalry, there are not only knights, but also a large number of squires. It is conceivable what kind of force and equipment a squire can have. .
It is estimated that if you can wear a full set of leather armor, it is already a good squire, not to mention that the knights often serve as the grass-roots commander on the battlefield, whether they can gather together to charge is a problem.
In this way, Theodosius felt that his cavalry troops had more advantages. He had been training in groups for a long time, with strong coordination ability, well-equipped, armed to the teeth, and his mounts were also iron horses and excellent war horses. Wearing a full set of horse armor, the combat power completely crushes the opponent’s knights. This is basically two levels of troops.
But speaking of it, even so, he was still quite happy that there were more than 10,000 cavalry in the team, because it meant that he could adopt more and more flexible tactics.
If it is the proportion of the army at this stage, Theodosius will undoubtedly adopt a stable strategic layout. After the army enters the territory of the Northern Empire, they will besiege their strategic points, the place where the resources of the castle ruins are stored, as much as possible before the opponent’s army gathers up. Be the first to consume their scattered troops.
Wait until the enemy’s main force arrives, and then set up a battle for battle.
