- Under the leadership of Roland, the Knights of Thorns attacked very quickly.
The speed of breaking the city is even faster than the enemy¡¯s communication speed.
Often when this stronghold has just been captured, the Knights of Thorns will rush to the next stronghold without stopping after simply handling the battlefield.
When the knights led by Roland began to attack the next city, the reporting soldiers from the previous city might have just seen the walls of this city.
In fact, when Charles III received the news that the Thorn Flowers had defeated seven strongholds in a row, the Thorn Flower Knights had already cleared all the military strongholds outside Gavia.
The attack method of the Thorn Flower Knights is also quite simple.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together out of nowhere.
It has to be said that in the God-given continent, no army that can stop the charge of the Thorn Flower Knights head-on has been born so far.
With just one charge, without Roland even needing to take action again, the Thorn Flower Knights could wipe out all the resistance in the city.
?Then it¡¯s time to pack up what Zhan Chao needs to take away, take it all away, and burn what doesn¡¯t need to be taken away.
The purpose of the Thorn Flower's attack is also very simple
Attack, harass, and consume the Louis Empire¡¯s war potential as much as possible
There are two specific ways
First, there is vitality!
Roland led the Thorn Flower Knights on this expedition, and he was cruel.
"All the active forces of the Louis Empire will basically be wiped out as long as they appear in front of the Knights of Thorns. The best result is to defeat them, so that these active forces can completely disrupt the organization and cannot form an effective resistance force at all.
Second, food!
The Louis Empire is located in the hinterland of the God-given continent, further south than the Charles Empire. Accordingly, the food of the Louis Empire matures earlier than the food of the Charles Empire in the summer.
Roland¡¯s second goal is the new summer grain that the Louis Empire just harvested in the 992nd year of the True Divine Calendar
Roland¡¯s idea is very simple. If there is no food, you will be beaten!
Even if Roland cannot destroy all of Louis' summer grain, he can at least destroy most of Louis' summer grain near Charles's empire.
Under such circumstances, even if the Louis Empire's army can expel the Knights of Thorns from the territory of the Louis Empire, the Louis army without food and logistics will not be able to start a war against the Charles Empire again.
In this case, Roland has fulfilled his promise to Augustine and bought enough time for Charles' empire!
Therefore, Roland, leading the Knights of Thorns, has been working hard to provide food for the Louis Empire.
In fact, the timing of Roland¡¯s pinch was very unusual.
Starting from July 11th when they entered Louis and started their violent attack, this time happened to be the time when the Louis Empire had harvested all the summer grain of the 992nd year of the True Divine Calendar and concentrated it in the military town.
Roland only needs to lead the Knights of Thorns to continuously attack Louis¡¯ military town to destroy Louis¡¯ summer grain to the maximum extent possible this year!
Regarding this situation, later generations also put forward a non-complex view: Roland chose to attack at this point in time, not only to achieve his strategic goals to the greatest extent, but also to avoid the endless massacre of Louis civilians by the Thorn Flower Knights. possible
As for whether Roland will massacre civilians because of food problems, no one knows that this has never happened.
But everyone in later generations and the people of Louis at that time knew that Roland was leading the Knights of Thorns and constantly attacking military towns in Louis, large and small. This kind of knowledge, for the then-powerful Emperor Louis and the Darcy family, That's enough!
The Louis Empire is in dire straits
No matter how angry the rulers are, no matter how cautious the defenders are, no matter how heroic the border guards are, no one can stop the progress of the Thorn Flower!
Not even one step will make it!
Big cities have big casualties, small towns have little casualties
Whether it¡¯s Louis¡¯ border guards or Louis¡¯ border cities, they are as vulnerable as paper in front of the thorn flower.
If not for the Knights of Thorns, none of the established border guards had escaped with their lives. It is estimated that when Roland attacked, as soon as the flag of Thorns was shown, Louis' city would have surrendered.
Faced with this situation, the people in power in Louis are scolding the streets
Take a closer look at the current territory of the Louis Empire.More than half of the cities and military towns on the border have been destroyed by the Knights of Thorn Flower, and judging from the meaning of Thorn Flower, there is a tendency to continue to penetrate deeper.
This was the battle situation a few days ago. The current situation is still much more severe than what is shown on the map!
The leaders of Louis had no choice but to discover that the territory of Louis' empire was like a piece of delicious butter, and the Knights of Thorns, under the leadership of Roland, were like a red-hot table knife, layer by layer. Cut off the butter and eat every bit of it!
" Charles III, who was in the capital of Louis, kept scolding the streets, calling the Louis border guards useless, calling the Louis nobles useless He even started scolding Roland for not keeping his word. He had agreed to a year, but why did he come in less than a month?
Lewis¡¯s border guards are also cursing in the streets
Of course they will not scold these useless things. The Lewis Border Guards only scolded one thing, that is, the attack route of the Thorn Flower Knights is too erratic.
Yesterday we were burning food in a military town 200 miles away, but today we can get it under our noses
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? doesn not do not know how to attack the city that is more than 300 miles away when you are panicking.
Brother, your route is so erratic that people don¡¯t even know when to run. If you continue like this, you will die sooner or later.
Well, no matter what the people of Louis are cursing, anyway, the names of Roland and the Knights of Thorns have completely played a role in silencing children in the Louis Empire, and they have maintained this effect for a long time.
And as the target of curses from all Lewis people, they are also cursed now.
"Walter, you idiot, what did I tell you at the time? Who asked you to light the fire? Look, it's burned like this now, how can you still do it?"
Roland was so angry that he pinched his waist and pointed at Walter and yelled
The big man Walter was like a child who had made a mistake. He stood in front of Roland obediently, not daring to express his anger. He looked even more aggrieved among the other members of the Knights of Thorns who were holding back their laughter.
"It doesn't matter if your brain is not working well. You have to obey me. Now you don't listen to me anymore?"
"no no¡¡"
When Roland said these words, Walter quickly defended without any words.
"No? No, what's going on?"
Roland pointed behind him, and a Lewis military stronghold was burning. The hard stone city walls became overwhelmed by the fire and kept making crackling sounds.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Out out of Roland and other arsonists, they all know that this military town is completely ruined. Even if the fire is extinguished now, the walls of the entire military town have been burned to a crisp
"The fever is gone"
Walter muttered softly, finally causing the surrounding people to burst into laughter.
Roland was also very happy with this big man
Today is already the eighth day that the Knights of Thorns entered the Louis Empire. For eight days, the 538 knights of the Knights of Thorns have been restless, either on their way, fighting, or setting fires.
Although the weak resistance of the Louis Empire did not cause any casualties to the Thorn Flower Knights, the long battles and marches had exhausted the Thorn Flower Knights.
Roland originally planned to take a rest after capturing this small military stronghold.
I didn¡¯t expect that the guys from the Thorn Flower Knights would just follow the usual routine of destroying the city - killing the enemy - setting fire
And Walter did not hesitate to use the Roland fire brought from Cole County to burn the small military town inside and out.
Seeing that a good camp was gone and was still destroyed in the hands of his own people, Roland quit at that time and pointed at Walter's nose, scolding him for half an hour.
?????????????????????????? However, Roland really has no other way to deal with Walter, a big man. Who makes this guy with a little brain and face, follow him loyally from the time of the knight tourney?
"Okay, stop laughing"
After a while of laughter, Roland said seriously
"Everyone must be more careful from now on! Even though we have been going smoothly these past seven or eight days, the Lewis people are as insignificant as shit in front of us. That's because they haven't reacted yet. They are We were stunned by our rapid attack"
"After all, we are alone outside, with no backup or support, and we are on other people's land When the Lewis people react, they will definitely gather heavily."Whoever takes it so lightly will inevitably capsize in the gutter"
"Did you hear everything?"
"yes!"
Everyone agreed in unison
But looking at their looks, Roland knew that none of these guys had listened, but there was nothing that could be done about it. After all, they had been invincible for seven or eight days in a row, and anyone else would feel complacent.
Fortunately, it¡¯s not that time yet. As long as Roland, the leader, remains vigilant, the Knights of Thorns will not make any big mistakes.
"Send the order, camp in the wild! Walter is on duty today!"
"yes¡¡"
"Ha ha¡¡"
There was another burst of laughter, and everyone went to work. Only Walter came over shamelessly, licking his face and asked Roland: "Boss, what are we doing next? It's a bit boring to be in a small military town like this"
Roland glanced at him
"Not interesting? Just wait there will be a big one tomorrow"
