Chapter 3 Rising in the North
At this point, the war has entered the most intense, bloodiest, and physically consuming close-range battle. The barbarians in the front row will be pierced by several spears at the same time. With extremely poor forging skills, few of them have metal armor. Most of them only have coat-level leather armor made of animal skins. Such armor cannot resist the spearmen's stinging level of all their strength - however, these rough and thick guys have ruthlessness that ordinary people do not.
Some guys were pierced into the heart or neck and bleed on the spot. Some guys were not fatally injured. In this way, they tried their best to pull the gun rod with their hands, so that the spearmen could not wave their weapons smoothly.
At the same time, they will burst out the last power in their lives, raise the battle axe in their hands, and chop it down hard towards the gun bar - this behavior will also deteriorate the wound a lot in an instant. After this tossing, most of the barbarian warriors will die.
There are also some more advanced - or more fearful death-armed barbarian warriors equipped with rough chain armor and holding giant axes in both hands, which are even more difficult to deal with. The gun body of the white wax pole is indeed not easy to be cut off. However, it will be swept aside by the giant axe. In this way, the gun array will become vacant and are flooded by these jingyi warriors.
Although these more capable guys will basically be taken seriously at the next moment, and the heads are broken by a bullet by the musketeer wrapped in the gun array. However, in this way, the formation of the square formation will be a little loose. This looseness of the xiǎoxiǎo gave great encouragement to the barbarians. They believed that as long as they continue to attack like this, the iron hedgehog shell of the long spear square formation will eventually be exposed, chiseled, and killed all of them.
On the flank of the square formation, a more violent fight was being staged. The fully armed swordsmen faced several times the enemy. With their skillful fighting skills, they waved their long swords, either chopped or stabbed. The steel round shield was cut and deformed at the first time and was discarded. The swordsmen tried to swing their swords with both hands. Although their speed and flexibility were slightly reduced, their lethality increased greatly. Under the slash of the long sword, people rolled on the snow and howled.
In this way, the fierce battle lasted for nearly three times, and there were several times during this period. The gun array was damaged due to mistakes. At this time, the spearmen who were beaten into the formation would pull out the sword on their waists and slash violently. At the same time, the heavy knights deployed on both wings would have some horses, waving heavy weapons such as shackles, scepters, and wolf teeth. They plunged into the battlefield and waved wildly, and wherever they went, they were in a mess.
That's not all. The heavy-armed knights holding scepters also cast magic at close range under the cover of their comrades. The four-kilogram scepter in their hands, even if they are weapons, are magic wands. Most of these knights in the north are water magicians, and a small number are wind magicians. The children who grew up in the wind and snow in the north are really not covered. The average sturdy body of more than 1.85 meters can completely scare those sissies who grow up temperately.
Their magic completely broke the claim that the water system and wind system are not good at fighting. Under the ice and snow, the water system magic is greatly increased, and the ice arrow is like a chuáng crossbow. A hail can hang up a storm. A second-level magician with a stronger momentum is yin blindly using the ice breathing magic. In the weather when water turns into ice, this magic is the most added - the ice blue sè gas instantly covers everything within a radius of fifteen meters, completely turning dozens of enemies into ice sculptures. After that, the knights smirked and waved the heavy weapons in their hands, smashing the ice sculptures into pieces.
For these people, they were first a snow wolf, second a northerner, and third a magician. As for nobles, haha, they can't be eaten as food.
After two consecutive raids of heavy knights, the front line stabilized again. After such a long battle, the enemy was already out of breath and seemed to be out of reach. There were even two large-scale escapes during this period. However, they were all pacified by Grand Duke Ross commanding the personal guards. The thick-spine steel knife was covered with blood from his own people.
I calculated it, and then I felt a creepy smile: "Rise my flag and light-mounted lancers, and the remaining heavy-mounted knights attacked the enemy's wings together - attack and kill them all on the whole line."
Immediately afterwards, the trumpets around me held their breath and blew the trumpets continuously, until all the gas in their lungs was blown out. At the same time, the two flag bearers around me worked hard to raise a huge four-meter-long flag. On the black background and white characters, the ferocious white blood-eyed winter wolf was swaying in teeth and claws. It was the signboard after I came to this world, the flag of the commander of the Fenrier Wolf Knights in the extreme north.
"Wright Baldwin, all of you here, brothers of the Knights, follow me to kill the enemy."
With the amplification magic, my loud and slightly tender voice spread on the battlefield. The soldiers of the Knights were very excited and even more desperate. On the contrary, the barbarians were frightened and the military situation tended to collapse.
After that, the light lances deployed on both wings also took action. They held short-barrel large-caliber shotguns, hung light cavalry rifles, sabers, sleeveless light plate armor and full-coverage helmets to charge. The cavalry in the front row quickly pulled the trigger - the iron sand, broken iron pieces, and nails in the shotgun gushed out, forming a fan-shaped attack surface. The more than one enemy were beaten into a sieve.
After that, the cavalry dropped their shotguns, grabbed their cavalry and rushed into the enemy's formation. The hollow pointed spear broke several seconds after digging into the enemy's body. The enemy was thrown several meters away. It seemed that there was absolutely no help. At this time, the long spears on both sides of the battlefield broke loudly, but the light lancers were unmoved. They let go of their hands and turned around and pulled out their sabers to charge, slashing while rushing. At this time, the second time the lancers got closer again. The remaining survivors and the enemies in the second row of arrays were defeated together.
At this point, the enemy's wings were severely attacked. At the same time, as my flag rose, my morale was gone and my troops were defeated. The remaining eight thousand barbarian soldiers threw away their armor and ran towards the back. Grand Duke Ross killed several deserters in succession, but was powerless to turn the world back. He was also surrounded by his subordinates and fled.
At this point, all members of the Knights turned into defense and attacked. The gunmen dropped their super long spears and rushed into the enemy formation with their swords. The rangers who had been ambushed in advance also rushed out of the mountains and forests behind, using short-barrel shotguns for a storm.
The dizzy barbarian warriors did not recognize how many enemies there were at all - they didn't even find the direction, and they touched like a group of flies. In the end, only a very small number of lucky guys escaped, and the remaining 12,000 barbarian warriors were killed in battle with Grand Duke Ross. The main force of the barbarians was wiped out.
In this battle, the Wolf Knights had 5,000 jings, and fought against 13,000 barbarians. In the end, they won a great victory, beheading more than 4,000, and captured more than 7,000 alive. Less than one-tenth of the enemy escaped. However, in such a severe winter, without supply and losing their way, how many people could return to their tribe alive is a big problem.
Because we have no extra food, only a small number of barbarian captives were left and sent to the mines to work. The rest of the barbarians were all beheaded and their bodies were burned. Without enough young and middle-aged people, the barbarian tribes, which were only the old and weak, will die more people in winter. The death of Grand Duke Ross will make the entire Ross plain luàn into a group. All powerful tribes will be killed in a group for the title of Grand Duke. They will no longer threaten us.
"It's over, the day when the barbarians rule this land is over." I looked at the messy battlefield and said with emotion.
"Yes, so many soldiers died, and the great master was gone. The barbarians have to be luàn for a while." A young wolf beside me said.
I nodded, nodded, and said nothing.
"Grand leader, what should we do next?" asked the head wolf.
"Listen." I smiled confidently: "I have a plan."
The wolf nodded and looked at me very seriously.
"I want to unite all settlements in the border area and form a country." I said, "We already have this ability. My brother, our Knights, is already the largest military force in the entire border area. And after this killing of the Savage Grand Duke, our reputation will reach a peak. With the support of force, the rest of the settler towns must join us. Those villages will be more willing to accept our protection."
"A country? Are we going to establish a country? Are we really able to do it?" The wolf leader was very moved. He didn't know when the wolf knights gathered beside me and looked at me.
"Of course, a country of northerners, a country of Fenrier wolf packs, our country," I shouted loudly. The wolf knights under extreme excitement also shouted wildly with me, venting their excitement.
"Long live the Great Commander of the Fenrier Wolf Knights Country, Wright, Baldwin." After a while, the soldiers in the distance also cheered.
A month later, with the news of the victory of the Wolf Knights spread throughout the border. The Wolf Knights also began to expand, sending head wolves to every autonomous town to take over the regime, enact laws, and collect taxes. A very small number of rebels were cruelly punished and hanged on the city tower as a vampire, unscrupulous nobles, and parasites.
After that, I have been integrating this new country for about a year. To be honest, except for the harsh climate, the other conditions here are extremely good. Fertile black soil, rich forests, mineral resources, hardworking and simple people. Although the population is slightly smaller, because in recent times, the war in Germania has been invincible every day. The strength of the Knights has increased accordingly.
At the same time, after the defeat and the double blow of the Russ barbarians had to lay their heads on me. One by one, the tribes walked out of the mountains and forests, received the Knights' aid and swearing allegiance to me. In this way, the population problem of the Knights' nation was solved.
In the next two years, I did not intervene in the political situation of Germania as most people imagine. On the contrary, apart from opening trade channels with other countries, we did not engage in any qualitative external activities.
The Knights' Kingdom was resting and recuperating, and the crops, wood, skins and iron tools they produced were continuously imported into neighboring countries in exchange for various technical support and a large amount of hard currency such as gold. After that, new gold and silver coins began to circulate, the national bank was established, and the financial system was improved. A large number of workshops began to start construction. The entire Knights' Kingdom was thriving.
At the same time, the construction of arms was also in an orderly manner. The northerners and naturalized barbarians were extremely excellent soldiers. After the modern scientific training I set up and the inculcated belief of religion and honor, a well-equipped and well-trained army was born. The technology of flying ship construction from other countries also came in handy. The air force with twenty-five battleships has become an air force that the nations cannot be regarded by.
A few years ago, the covenant I signed with the Frost Dragon in the Arctic came in handy. After spending a lot of money and jewelry, a force of two hundred dragon knights was armed. As a fast strike force of the Knights' nation, the Frost Dragon also promised that when needed, it would personally come to the battlefield according to the covenant and give me strong support - of course, not for free.
In the fourth year, the Knights released their fangs and claws, showing their terrifying forces to the mainland countries. In the main grain-producing area south of the Knights, several split countries on the Bo River Plain became the prey of the wolf in the north. After two months of fierce expedition, the Knights annexed the entire Bo River Plain with unimaginable low casualties. After that, the land and population of the Knights doubled in an instant, and became a new power on the mainland.
After this, the other ancient kingdoms looked at this emerging country. I know that it is time to make a decision.
Three days after the annexation of the Bo River Plain, a total of two envoys marched to Germania and Romania respectively. He expressed his kindness to Germanian Emperor Albresit III and the Pope of Romania. He also expressed his firm support for the imperial power of Albresit III.
In the following year, the Knights' Order shone brightly in the civil war in Germania, defeating the army of the three electoral families and completely exterminated the Bosimia Marquis. During this operation, the Knights' Order took no money and gave all the occupied territory and castles to Albresit III. The spoils were given to the Pope of Romania.
At this point, the emerging Knights' Kingdom was finally recognized. Albresette III, whose direct territory was greatly expanded, generously gave me the qualification to be elected by Bo Simea. At the same time, the Pope of Romania also agreed to crown me.
After that, the Knights became history, the emerging countries were renamed the Marquis of Prussia, the Fenrier Wolf Knights became the Royal Knights, and I went to Romania to worship and crown, everything was as relaxed and pleasant as I expected.
