The Rise of Iceland - Vol 3 Chapter 471
Since the end of the 25-year war, there have been no major wars involving many countries in Europe. Basically, most countries have returned to calm, and they have accumulated strength in China, waiting for the Viking Empire to reveal its flaws, and then they will attack in groups.
There are too many countries looking forward to the dismemberment of the dragon of the Viking Empire.
But what all countries did not expect was that before France found the opportunity to raise the anti-Viking flag first, the Viking Empire suddenly attacked Russia without warning, and it was destroyed all the way, and it attacked the city of Moscow like a broken bamboo.
Prince Condé of France and Half, Duke of Magdeburg, fought in Magdeburg. Both were famous European generals. They fought four games in a row for more than half a month, but Prince Condé was unable to break through Half’s line of defense. .
The navies of the Viking Empire in northern Europe were all mobilized to travel to and from the Baltic Sea, and the merchant ships of other countries were terrified and disappeared.
After Duke William led the army to surround Moscow, he pulled out the artillery position and began to bombard the capital of Tsarist Russia.
The army scouts who came to King Qin from the provinces could see from a distance that William’s artillery units were not covered by cavalry, and they were very happy to set up positions outside the city.
After the Russian commander learned about it, he joined forces to attack the artillery camp of the Viking Corps.
Tens of thousands of Russian cavalry rushed into the artillery camp of the Viking Legion and slaughtered, while the Viking soldiers left their artillery and fled on horseback.
The Russian cavalry didn’t wait long when they heard the rumble of artillery, and then hundreds of artillery shells fell into the artillery camp.
The people who were bombed by the Russian cavalry turned their backs on their horses, and before they could regroup, tens of thousands of Viking cavalry came over from both fronts.
The Russian military commander, who was watching the battle from a distance, ordered the entire army to attack and cover the cavalry, and cursed at the same time: “William is really shameless. He even used hundreds of artillery pieces as bait. The value of these artillery pieces is enough to buy a principality!”
William knew very well that using the artillery position as bait, he had the element of gambling, but he won the bet.
Five hours later, evening came on the outskirts of Moscow.
50,000 Russian troops were defeated by William in one fell swoop, captured 30,000 and killed 7,000 or 8,000. Although the Vikings also sacrificed more than 5,000 warriors and lost hundreds of artillery pieces, the Vikings were victorious.
Seeing that there was no more Russian soldiers standing outside the city, William was relieved. He knew that he had won the bet. Even if he lost more artillery, Olaf would not punish himself.
Ordered to clean up the battlefield, Field Marshal William sprinkled a lot of scouts all over again before he could eat a hot meal.
After William led the army to break through the three-way army, they arrived at the city of Moscow, but now William has only attacked with artillery, but did not send troops to attack, just constantly defeated and defeated the Russian army that came to support, and never let anyone go. people from the city.
Olaf was very happy after receiving the battle report sent by William, clapped his hands and smiled: “Around the point to help, okay, if you don’t attack Moscow, you will not suffer serious losses. With the serf soldiers and waste commanders of Tsarist Russia, it will definitely not be William. opponent.”
After praising William for a while, Olaf pulled Margaret and smiled: “My dear queen, you can prepare the most luxurious evening dress. We may be able to celebrate the New Year in the Kremlin this year.”
Olaf’s expectations are not nonsense. As a veteran on the European battlefield, he has a keen insight. Before the birth of Peter the Great, Russia was a ruined settlement in Europe. More than 90% of the troops were serfs, lacking advanced weapons and equipment. Equipment, if it is not populated enough, the territory is large enough, and the environment is poor enough, there is no chance that it will be torn apart by Sweden, Poland, Ottoman and other countries when it rises.
The Viking Empire now has the first-class weapons and equipment in Europe and the most advanced combat methods. The Szczecin Military Academy has trained countless military talents to fill all aspects of the army, so that the Viking army can burst into the world’s first. Efficiency and execution.
There are also the brave and outstanding soldiers in the Viking Legion, and the rigorous military merit reward system designated by Olaf. The combat effectiveness of the Viking army is much higher than that of the Russian army, and it can even be said to be able to fight five. problem.
The commander-in-chief of the Viking army was Friedrich Wilhelm, who was appraised by Napoleon as a famous general in the original time and space, he and Gustav II. Prince Condé, Cromwell and several others were regarded as rare famous generals in Europe in the 17th century.
Under such a generational difference, Russia will undoubtedly lose. This battle has already decided the outcome at the moment of Olaf’s decision.
Prince Condé is worthy of being a famous French general. After Louis XIV gave the prince more rights, the prince developed a strong strategic control ability. After confronting Half for several months, he finally found Chance beats Half.
Half was hit by three bullets, but Fu Da did not die, but he had to rest for more than a year after being rescued, and he would definitely suffer from sequelae in the future.
Half fell, and Magdeburg was soon occupied by the French-Palestinian coalition. Then Thom and Sollak led their troops from Szczecin and went all the way south to block them.
Since the second half of 1662, northern Germany has once again become a battlefield of purgatory on earth.
Although the Viking Empire in Germany was at a disadvantage, an exciting good news came back from the Russian front in mid-July, which shocked the subjects of the Viking Empire, and Olaf laughed even more.
After months of encircling and supporting the Viking Empire, the Slavic army had been defeated, and the Cossacks in the southwest of Russia, together with the Jews, formed a coalition to harass the south of Moscow.
holding on for several months
Dear, this chapter is not over, and there is another page ^0^ After that, His Majesty Emperor Alexei I of the Russian Empire sent someone to hang a white flag at the top of the city.
After a round of negotiations, William confiscated the weapons of the Moscow defenders, and then more than 90,000 Viking iron troops and 60,000 militia auxiliary troops entered Moscow and carried out wanton burning, killing and looting in civilian areas.
According to the consensus reached by Marshal William and Alexei I before entering the city, that is to keep the aristocratic area near the Kremlin from chaos. As for the family property of other citizens, wealthy businessmen and petty officials and gentlemen, the personal safety of the tsar is not of course. Under the consideration of His Majesty and the Marshal of the Viking Empire.
Chives are leeks~www.mtlnovel.com~ Since Master Viking needs to cut a wave, then donate it immediately. Who does not cut it?
Civilized people have always fought the rules. Since the tsar needs dignity, Marshal William must give him honor.
After raising the sky in 80% of Moscow by three feet, Marshal William also waited for the imperial envoy sent by Olaf, Colonel Pihulu.
William and Pihulu communicated for a long time, and the next day they showed up in the Kremlin and presented to His Majesty Tsar Alexei I all the conditions that the Russian Empire needed to pay in exchange for peace.
Pihulu not only brought Olaf’s will this time, but also his identity was the highest person in charge of negotiating with Tsarist Russia, so Marshal William also respectfully followed behind Pihulu.
Originally, according to Olaf’s will, the failure of Tsarist Russia this time had to bleed a lot, and the ceding of land and indemnity was what it should have meant, and bowing down as a minister was also the bottom line requirement.
However, after reading Olaf’s imperial decree, William, after discussing with Pihulu, added more than a dozen large and small clauses to his demands from Russia.
Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
