Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When Lansha took over the Gray Army, he made a verbal agreement with Josiah that he would lead the Gray Army to conquer the entire northern part of Bran in about half a year!

    When the time comes, the Gray Army is in an embarrassing situation and is in a dilemma.  .So even Josiah, who knew Lansha¡¯s astonishing military prowess and mighty record, never seriously considered this agreement.  Even though later, under the command of Lan Sha, the Gray Army did sweep thousands of miles like a tiger, Josiah never mentioned this topic again.

    What I¡¯m afraid of is embarrassing Lan Sha.

    The current record is already astonishing, and if we can¡¯t do it, it¡¯s really meaningless to mention it again.

    Just like those members of Congress sitting in the Bran Congress Chamber, whenever a new year begins, they are always used to talking big and making countless promises, earning enough eyeballs and funds for their departments.  In the end, of course, all of these promises will not be realized, but as long as one of them is achieved, or even if it is only a preliminary progress, it will be able to cope with the transaction and will not be troubled by King Bran's court.

    That¡¯s probably what it means¡­

    But now, with the retreat of Bran's main army on the front line, this seemingly illusory agreement suddenly became real.

    ?Perhaps it¡¯s because a fool will always gain something despite all his worries.  Or maybe they were frightened by the bloody method of the gray-coated army using purple-bore cannons to stop the enemy Bran King's rare and correct decision to retreat this time was implemented quite thoroughly, and there was no entanglement with the tribal army or the gray-coated army at all.  With an extremely rare high efficiency, they gathered their forces, quickly crossed the river by boat, and retreated to the south.

    This also means that the resistance of the gray-clothed army to advance is getting smaller and smaller In less than a week, the gray-clothed army, which was red-eyed and gaining momentum, suddenly came into view.  There are no more organized enemies.  There was even an advance to a city.  Don't wait for them to show off their horses and horses.  After taking out the purple-bore cannon, I was shocked to find a white flag of no war hanging high on the wall, and then the heavy city gate opened automatically.

    It¡¯s completely like opening the door to welcome guests.

    This made the grey-coated soldiers who had been fighting and fighting for months very uncomfortable. They had a strange and absurd feeling of "I have taken off my pants, just show me this"

    ? ?Okay, put aside this weird feeling.  The situation at hand also made the soldiers and civilians of the Gray Army truly realize this fact for the first time¡ª¡ª

    Bran.  Lost?

    Bran, defeated!

    Just a month ago, Philip was bargaining with Tang En not to give up the North's firm attitude.  Now there is no need for any negotiation at all. The entire northern part of Bran belongs to the Gray Army in name only.

    At this time, it has only been three months since the appointment between Lansha and Joshua

    I have to say, someone as handsome as Lansha is really terrifying!

    ¡­¡­

    Such a short period of time and such earth-shaking changes have caused everyone in the gray army, from Josiah to ordinary soldiers, to suffer from a serious problem called "worrying about gains and losses."  Even though I wanted to cheer and celebrate, I felt that the scene in my eyes was seriously unreal.  It seemed like a beautiful dream disappeared into nothing as soon as I woke up. I really couldn't be happy.

    certainly.  This uneasiness will eventually disappear.  What replaced it was overwhelming confidence in ecstasy

    "The news is here, Bran did escape this time According to the intelligence from the secret agency, there are not many official ships coming and going on the Lenau River in the past few days, mainly transporting soldiers and officers back to the south, as well as some important military supplies  As well as wealthy businessmen, nobles, etc., it seems that they want to evacuate the north in the shortest possible time and clear the country They are still being transported. Judging from the scale and posture, it will take at least three days to complete the transportation. Chief, Deputy Commander Lansha, do you think we should do it?  Send an army to harass us"

    After a pause, Frey, who read the information himself, looked at Joshua and Lansha and shook their heads slightly, nodded and continued to smile, "Well, it's really not necessary. You can't transport anything in a few days.  A small bargain is not worth our money."

    Frey, who looked like a nouveau riche, waved his hands grandly, and his whole body was filled with a kind of willful aura called buying a bun and throwing another bun - this is when he finally recovered a little and began to accept his defeat of Bran.  The general psychological temperament of the gray-coated soldiers and people of this behemoth empire.

    The poor are the ones who can¡¯t resist the ecstasy of having a windfall from heaven.

    After turning over the last page of intelligence paper and glancing at it, Frey couldn't help but smile again, "Oh, there's another news here. King Bran sent a negotiating team again. They just crossed the river and came to the north the day before yesterday uh, this  The lineup for this negotiation is quite sincere!¡±

    After a pause, he looked up at the surprised looks of Tang En and others. Frey licked his lips and said, "The person leading the negotiation team this time is the second prince of the empire. In addition, in addition to a group of congressmen, there are also many  The five red archbishops of the Temple of Light Tsk tsk, the God of LightWhy are you here to join in the fun? Could it be that you can also be a canonized leader?  hehe¡­¡­"

    Shaking his head, Frey couldn't help but smile sarcastically after thinking for a while, but then he saw that both Joshua and Lansha had strange expressions on their faces. He was stunned for a moment and realized something. His smile froze slightly and turned into shock, "No  Nois it really"

    "What is it really? Canonization?"

    There are only four people in the room right now, Tang En, Joshua, Lansha, and Frey.  Judging from the relationship between these people, Tang En is the best senior member of the Gray Army.  It can be regarded as a fixed small group, with Tang En as the link.  Don't underestimate the energy of these people. Most of the affairs orders in the Gray Army are decided by this small group first, and then discussed and promoted by a group of senior generals.

    There is no doubt about the importance of Tang En in this. It is no exaggeration to say that without him, there would be no gathering of several people here.

    But other than that, in most of the discussion time, Tang En only played a decorative role.  There is no way, whether it is military strategy, internal affairs, etc., these are not areas that are good at, or not many people here are good at it.  In this case, naturally there is nothing to say.

    For example, right now, Tang En, who is not a native of the other world, is still questioning Frey.  As for Josiah and Lansha, one was a former Bran nobleman and the other was currently His Highness Beihuang.  No matter who they are, they are very familiar with the etiquette of high-level royal officials.  Even Frey, who has never seen it before, has a common sense in his mind after hearing and seeing it¡ª¡ª

    Bran is an empire where royal power and divine power are closely combined, except for fighting.  It seems that it can only be done when a lord-level figure who is in charge of one side is ennobled.  Only then will several red archbishops be dispatched at once.  certainly.  Crowning a king is another matter. The crown is usually awarded by the pope himself.

    That is to say,

    "Probably just here for the canonization." After a pause, Lansha raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at Joshua with a sarcastic smile.  Not mocking Josiah, but mocking Bran's approach, "It can be regarded as following the Temple of Light to save himself some face, which means that he was not defeated. He took the initiative to give in. Haha hypocritical Bran.  , these hypocritical routines are always running in my mind.¡±

    "It seems that the beating was not hard enough." He shook his head and laughed. Tang En did not understand the etiquette of imperial power, and he was not stupid. Hearing this, he immediately understood the intention of Bran's move - the north can give it to you, pay attention!  It was given to you, not something you took away from us.  In short, I just want to build a memorial arch after doing all that.

    "That's strange. I was also from Bran before. Why can't I understand what they are thinking now?" He shook his head silently.  Frey, who also understood, grinned and mocked, "What on earth are they thinking about? Do they still have the time to think about this at this time?"

    "Actually it was a good move." After squinting and pondering for a while, Lansha suddenly smiled, turned to look at Josiah and said, "If I guessed correctly, the main purpose of the other party's coming here this time should be  Appease, appease the Gray Army to withdraw from attacking the Bran Empire, and may also give you some benefits such as war compensation. Well, I suggest you accept this negotiation and accept the canonization!"

    "Huh? Why?" Before Josiah, who raised his eyebrows slightly, could say anything, Frey couldn't help it and was a little excited. "Is it necessary to negotiate? The North belongs to us now, so why do they need to pretend?  Give in?"

    "The key is not negotiation." Lansha shook his head slightly and explained calmly, "Actually, there are some things I wanted to say when most of Bran's troops retreated to the south, but I just never found the right opportunity Well, the Gray Army's  Its nature is a bit special. In a sense, it adopts the strategy of elite troops. This also means that the scale of the force is not large enough. To put it simply, the existing military strength of the Gray Army cannot destroy the Bran Empire.  There will be no hope for at least two to three years. This is a fact, and I think you all know it."

    Both Josiah and Frey were silent when they heard the words. This was not acquiescence. It could be seen from the more or less unconvinced expressions on their faces.

    In fact, to a certain extent, no matter how much you pour cold water on yourself or reflect on yourself, including Josiah, Frey, and the thousands of soldiers and civilians in gray who are celebrating outside, their current mental state is somewhat unstable.  It feels like the empire is nothing more than that, and it feels like I can break into Brandu City tomorrow and find out the old king

    To be honest, I can¡¯t blame them.  The poor suddenly become rich, and their emotions are still unstable. Not to mention that they have overthrown a huge empire, so it is natural for them to feel a sense of accomplishment.

    but,

    Lansha seemed not to notice the slight resistance between the two men, and continued, "Furthermore, as an emerging force that has just made some achievements, the Gray Army has everything including the superstructure, substructure, etc. in its infancy. This requires  It takes a long time for construction to settle and be slowly digested. It is impossible to be in continuous war for a long time Even if you?, the soldiers will be tired, and the people who follow you will not be able to accept it.  "

    After a pause, he waved his hand, "Don't rush to refute, just listen to what I have to say I believe in your prestige, and I also believe that as long as you go outside and raise your voice now, the gray-clothed army will be able to immediately start the cross-river battle without any trouble."  Objection. But, it¡¯s pointless, isn¡¯t it?¡±

    "Do you still remember the purpose that your Gray Army set when you formed the army from scratch? Can you still remember the purpose of those people who were willing to send their children into the army to fight for life and death? Can you still remember the original intention, not  Have you forgotten the beginning?"

    "Those people and soldiers, they took up arms with you and rose up in rebellion. They want a stable life with relatively little oppression and exploitation, instead of killing people all the time - can you still understand this now?  "

    Facing Lan Sha¡¯s repeated questions, Tang En raised his head and glanced at Josiah and Frey, who were silent. He clasped his hands and lowered his head. This time he was truly silent.

    He sighed lightly. From the beginning to the end, Tang En, who had always been a bystander, had a clearer understanding than everyone else.

    He knew that Lan Sha was right.

    The truth is this. Not many people are warmongers, and not many people want to keep fighting.  The gray-coated army is composed of ordinary people. They definitely prefer a stable and peaceful life to fighting.  The reason why I was in favor of war before was because I was forced hard and suppressed hard. Only through war can all this be changed.

    But it¡¯s different now, they have gotten the results they wanted.  To fight a war that is destined to be unwinnable is not to make progress but to be greedy

    From this perspective, King Bran is also sober.  They knew that the gray-coated army could not destroy them, but they were also afraid that the gray-coated army would rise to the challenge and do something stupid, so even when they were defeated, they still sent out this self-humiliating negotiating team, all they wanted was to persuade the gray-coated army.  The Yi army calmed down and stopped attacking the south - it was indeed a good move.

    "Tell me about your true purpose." Tang En deliberately eased the atmosphere, looked at Lansha with a smile and said, "Hey, I don't believe you have poured cold water on me for so long, just for the benefit of the Gray Army?"

    Lan Sha glared angrily, but simply said directly: "Accept the negotiation and strive for the benefits as much as possible. Then the Gray Army will settle down. Well, you can consider where to build the capital and other issues, and enjoy the joy  The results of the battle. As for the upcoming war, you should stop interfering in it and make way for a military thoroughfare so that my tribal army can pass through and reach the banks of the Lenau River!"

    "Humph - this is a thousand-year feud between Bran and my Northern Wilderness tribe. It's time to settle the accounts!"
