Chapter 14 World War?

------------

In a rage, the emperor made a decision to send troops! Send out his army and teach these idiotic continental princes who are not aware of their high ground and are defeated and killed. Qiqi turned their Baishao territory into ruins. If peace and interests cannot guarantee peace behind Egur, the fear of death and great destruction will be maintained.

"Then, use another strategy. As much as possible, use all means to destroy the countries that are against me. They will suffer heavy losses and cannot recover their vitality within ten years. In this way, when I was fighting with Ménggu, these eggs were powerless even if they wanted to do something." At that time, Egur said to Aurora. The eldest princess of the empire rarely supported Egur's decision.

"Indeed, if you can't say it, you can fight it. It's simple and convenient. I only have one question, which is what should you do after you win? Although it's a good thing to be able to obtain land. However, if you want to manage half of the territory as big as Europe, the number of officials and governance capabilities of the empire is a little bit more difficult. After the war, we may have to take a long time to clean up this mess. If the ancient Chinese fights at this time, it would be difficult."

Egur nodded, and then said to Aurora: "I have already thought about this matter. Since I can't manage it, don't manage it. And in this war, there is no land that the empire must occupy."

"So, how do you deal with your spoils? Are you enfeoffed? If that's the case, it will be difficult to swallow it back later." Aurora continued.

"Of course, there will be no feudalism." Egur replied: "After the war reaches a certain level, we will find an opportunity to sign a truce treaty with other countries. In this battle, I don't want a piece of land. Just pay compensation and unequal treaties."

"So that's the case. If this happens, the other party will never let you exploit it. When you recover and recover your strength slightly, you will definitely tear the treaty signed with you. At that time, you probably had almost done the méng ancient things... Well, it's a good idea."

"It's almost like that. Time, speed, and destructive power. My empire and my army are not lacking in these things!"

On August 21, 1007, after the Southern European Union declared war on the Norman Empire, the Norman Empire responded to the five deaths. This so-called correspondence was not a stern declaration of war. Or the rhetoric was gorgeous, and all the other party's crimes were listed. It was an attack. A full-face attack. In the same time, the Norman Empire's Brittany Legion, the Normandy Legion, and the North Saxony Legion,

o The Western Legion of Lanzhou, these four Norman Legion, dropped the word "garrison" at the same time. They were led by their respective legion commanders and approached the enemy's incoming country.

On the same day, the Norman Emperor declared: "I, Egur Scadragrimson, adhered to the will of Yao, and officially succeeded the position of Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire today. From today on, from Scandinavia to the vast sea of ​​deserts, from Mount Ural to the Atlantic Ocean, the entire West, the entire continent, and the entire Bishop's belief, there is only one emperor, that is, Egur Scadragrimson!"

A total of four legions, more than 20,000 regular troops, and a larger number of mobilized troops formed three large armies, and divided into three groups to launch a full counterattack towards the three armies of the Southern European Union! After hearing the news, both Egur's opponents and allies took a breath and said intimately: "It is worthy of being Emperor Norman, what a big deal."

Among these three armies, the commander of the Brittany Legion John, Normandy General James entered the second, a total of 11,000 standard legions, and the 10,000 reserve militia authorized by Egur to be counted as one route. At the same time, behind them, on the British Isles, the Kingdom of Britain, and the Norman Empire's English provinces were also mobilizing reserves to prepare for the war. The old opponent of France, the Norman Queen Artoria, also led her 30,000 Celtic army, and took a ride.

o The battleships of the Luohai Fleet rushed to the battlefield in France at night.

In addition, Egur predicted that the Burgundian Kingdom could also take out at least 20,000 troops to participate in the war. In this way, 11,000 garrison troops, 10,000 Northern France militias, 20,000 British militias, 30,000 Celtic regular troops, and 20,000 Burgundian troops. Together, it was 90,000 troops, and rounded up to 100,000! Under the reserve system implemented by the Norman Empire, the mobilization ability was so shocking. Just a side division could reach such a number.

Not only in terms of quantity, Norman's army also maintained a consistent high standard in quality. Regularly trained reserve militias are incomparable with the combat effectiveness of peasant soldiers and cannon fodders recruited by the feudal system. They are all rich in organization, discipline, and military literacy. And their commanders are not those feudal aristocrats, but new-style officers from the same county as them who have received regular military academy education.

Their equipment also maintained Norman's usual high standards. Although most of the weapons were eliminated by regular troops, those chain armors, heavy chain armors, and even leather armors were still the most popular and effective equipment in continental Europe and most countries and regions around the world. In addition, some new equipment that are not too expensive was also sent to the hands of excellent militia troops and their commanders. There were also a small number of noble children from wealthy families and eager to get out of their homes, or those of businessmen who bought "jingliang" equipment that exceeded the average level.

The main heavy infantry in the militia sequence is a militia swordsman equipped with xiong deck armor and steel helmets. Although it is a swordsman, its actual weapons are scimitars and tomahawks. Some soldiers are equipped with heavy javelins to enhance long-range lethality. Such luxurious equipment will even arouse the envy of regular troops of many countries.

The most numerous militiamen, equipped with spearmen holding super-long spears, are usually equipped with a hard leather armor, while families with relatively wealthy families are even equipped with light chain armor and even better equipment. Some of the commanders are also equipped with xiong armor.

Together with the spear militia, the long halberd militia formed the conscripted troops were militia wearing chain armors, even heavy chain armors, and holding long halberds that could be cut and stabbed. These were also assault infantrymen of militia units.

The militia's long-range attack power was usually crossbows. Those who were abandoned by regular troops and replaced by pulley crossbows were equipped in large quantities in the militia. Most of these militia crossbows were equipped with leather armor, while a small number were equipped with light chain armor and even some wealthy citizens, small merchants and noble children were also equipped with war horses. Among the 30,000 militias in northwestern France, a heavy cavalry unit with two thousand entry was gathered.

"The opponent's main force is still thousands of miles away on the 1st day and cannot come. This time, France cannot have another Saint-NV Joan of Arc to save them... Haha, a hundred thousand army. Artoria will definitely be very happy to turn that kingdom into a scorched earth." Egur thought this way, and then he stroked the long nails left and pointed in another direction.

From Hamburg, this military center, a strengthening legion of the Norman Empire, led by civilian general Sula, and, led by Anderson, five thousand five hundred

o Southwest Legion, and mobilized itself

o Lan, 10,000 militias from the Prussian region, 20,000 militias mobilized from Scandinavia, Denmark, Jutland Peninsula, and the northern Saxony provinces. In addition, the two principalities of Hesse and Brandenburg can provide 20,000 troops. The total number of troops in this direction is 63,000.

Of course, as the direction of the enemy's main force, compared with the so-called main force of the Southern European Union: the southern German princes and the Shangren nobles in Northern Italy, the army of 60,000 was slightly weaker. However, soon, the 100,000 main army led by Egur, who had undergone the second military reform, would kill from this direction. The sacred emperor's will spread to the territory of the German princes. Let those who do not know how to be tall and strong know who is the boss.

The militia in this direction are different from the militias that focus on the super-splitting phalanx like Western Europe that focus on defense. The main force of militia dispatched from Eastern Europe are horse-riding militias equipped with scimitars, hard leather armor, and compound bows, as well as tomahawk militias equipped with chain armor, even heavy chain armor, attack power and impact power. There are also Vikings, Viking militias equipped with xiong armor, holding tomahawks, shields, and flying axes.

Even after hearing about the mobilization order of Emperor Norman, a group of low-key people spontaneously organized a force, responding to the emperor's call.

Although there are not many of these short-entry warriors, they are quite powerful in terms of equipment and combat power. Speaking of which, it was precisely because of the help of short-entry craftsmen that the Norman Empire developed plate armor and improved metal forging technology so quickly. The equipment of these short-entry craftsmen are the most refined and thickest plate armor - the same as the plate armor that supplies half-entry warriors. It is also four millimeters thick super-heavy full-body plate armor. The heavy weapons they hold are matched with their white spoon of thick armor. They are several circles larger than the general head, weighing 20 kilograms. The power of one blow is enough to break the mountain and crack the stone...
