    They can only concentrate 40,000 troops at the front of Kiev City. However, around Kiev City, there are Kiev garrison and the First Army and Second Army. The total strength is far more than 50,000. Among them, there are more than 12,000 elite cavalry. Together with other  Cavalry, the total number of cavalry is no less than 20,000.  Facing such a powerful defender of Kiev City, if you still want to attack Kiev City, is that not seeking death?  The Easterners have shown their attitude with practical actions. They will kill as many as they dare to touch the city of Kiev.  The snow was falling heavily and the cold wind was raging, but it still couldn't cover up the smell of blood coming from Cen Weibok. No one doubted what the Easterners said, because they could do what they said.  Markese is an ordinary Germanic boy. He comes from the southern blacksmith family and is the most loyal warrior of the lord.  Once, he was also full of desire for Istria. When he attacked Vilnius, he was so arrogant. As long as Vilnius was captured, the three fortresses outside Kiev would all fall into the hands of the Holy Empire and be captured.  The city of Kiev, which is easy to attack but difficult to defend, is also just around the corner.  After a hard fight and a heavy price paid, what was gained was not joy. The originally complicated situation did become clearer, but no one expected that the situation was the opposite.  It was the Easterners, not the Holy Empire, who really had the advantage. Marcus couldn't figure out why this happened. Although he had already captured the city of Vilnius, he was in a passive position.  Not understanding doesn't mean that you can't see the situation clearly. Although it holds three fortified cities, all fools know that the Holy Empire can only hold on to three fortified cities. If there are no reinforcements and only rely on the existing troops, as long as they dare to leave the city,  You will definitely be beaten by the Easterners and you will be confused.  A gust of cold wind blew in through the gap, and Marcus shivered suddenly, and quickly wrapped himself in a torn quilt, "Hey, this damn weather can really kill people, Lesno, do you think we can still go home alive?"  ?" Lesno next to him held his chin with his eyes blank. When he heard Markese's words, he grinned with bitterness, "Who knows? Markese, maybe you don't know, Baisier has been there in the past few days.  , and the faces of the adults in Sugus were very ugly. I heard that there were often quarrels among the adults in the castle, which seemed to be about reinforcements. Hey, I guess the situation will not be too optimistic. In fact, it is easy to understand, even for us.  These people are not willing to continue the fight, and Lord Cook and the others probably don¡¯t want to continue the fight. Our blacksmith family is not strong to begin with. If we continue to send more family members to the Istria Highlands, our blacksmith family will suffer.  Is there still a future? " Lesno is not a wise man, let alone a smart man. He is just an ordinary farmer. However, his simple words express the most basic truth, no matter what era.  , everywhere, people must ultimately be the center. Without people, there will be nothing.  After the failure of the Eastern Expedition and the continuous battles in the Istria Highlands, the original Knights of Bojo suffered heavy losses, and there were not many Roland infantry regiments belonging to the blacksmith family left. These young people are all young warriors of the blacksmith family.  In order to support this unprecedented war, the blacksmith family has sacrificed too much.  If we continue to send reinforcements, we will have to gather young people aged fourteen or fifteen. These young people are immature and far from being pure family warriors. If we send them to the battlefield, we will be risking the future of the blacksmith family.  bet.  Once these young people suffer heavy losses, I am afraid that the blacksmith family will disappear from the long history of Germany.  For the Istria Highlands, for this place that does not belong to the blacksmith family, it is not worth it at all.  Lesno didn't understand those big principles. He only knew that if you can grab things that don't belong to you, grab them. If you can't grab them, you can't force them. If your life is gone, why grab those things?  Preserving the fate of the blacksmith family is more important than the temptation of the Istrian highlands.  In fact, Lesno's idea is not unusual. Baisier, Suggs and others also do not want to send more reinforcements. Of course, their starting point is more complicated and their intentions are not as simple as Lesno.  The war in Istria has become increasingly difficult to continue. Anyone who is not blind can see that the Easterners have taken control of the situation in the Istrian highlands.  Especially for Yorkelen, the red-robed knights built with a lot of money by the church were almost completely wiped out on the Qisir Plain. As the consul of the legion, Yorkelen's courage was frightened. He really didn't want to die on the Qisir Plain.  Even if there are millions of benefits here, it is still not a reason to die here.  There are still many things that Yorkolen needs to worry about. Without the Red Robe Knights, there is no one to rely on. How can he withstand the wrath of His Majesty the Pope under such a huge loss?  Nowadays, survival has become the most basic issue, and Jorcoln will never be stupid enough to suggest that the Pope continue to send reinforcements unless his head is filled with water.  Although they are unwilling to admit it, judging from the current situation, the church has lost control of this land. The Slavs no longer serve God because God did not save them during the great plague. What really saved the Slavs were the aliens from the east.  Believers.  Jorcoln sneered at Lothair's idea of ??requesting reinforcements. In the final analysis, it was the Pope, Dorle and Schwein who really dominated the direction of the Holy Empire. Others could not make up their minds at all.  ??If Taire wants to continue fighting, it is useless to look for Baisier and Sugus.  Alas, Lothair's life was not easy either. Yorcoln kept smashing his mouth, as if he was chewing something.  The goose-feather-like snow continued to fall outside the window, and the sky and earth were white, cold and dead.  Byssle and Suggs, the old enemies, sat together for the rare occasion, surrounding a brazier. Both of them looked sad. No one expected that the outcome of the Vilnius war would be like this.  The huge plan of the Orientals is like a cage that includes everyone. Although they don't like each other, now that they are facing a formidable enemy, they can only temporarily abandon their past resentments.  Who would have thought that a few months ago these two people were fighting desperately on the battlefield, but now they are sitting together like a pair of old friends chatting, "Baisir, do you think it is necessary for us to continue fighting? The Orientals are now as stable as a rock.  , holding a lot of chips in their hands. No one knows when the garrison near Vladimir will take action. Once those garrison joins the battle in Kiev City, we will be finished." Saying these words, after all.  Somewhat helpless, this is the fact.  The current garrison near Kiev is not the full strength of the Easterners, not even one-third. Once Vladimir's army takes action, it will be the strength of five armies. These soldiers and horses can surround the German warriors.  stand up.  The huge strength gap has already made the Germanic warriors somewhat breathless.  Sugus somewhat understood why Lothair was eager to ask for reinforcements. It would be impossible not to ask for reinforcements. There was not much time left for the Holy Empire. The Easterners would take action at any time, and the Holy Empire had no way to deal with it. It could only increase the number of reinforcements.  troops.  The sooner they attack Kiev City, the smaller the risk. Unfortunately, seeing the situation clearly does not mean that reinforcements will be sent. After all, Lothair has his own interests and demands, and the eastern nobles and Danube nobles also have their own interests.  Now a heavy price has been paid for the Istria Highlands, and no more losses are worth it.  It¡¯s not like Baisier didn¡¯t understand the meaning of Sugus¡¯s words, so he smiled faintly and shook his head slightly, ¡°It¡¯s Lothair who is finished, not us. At least the Danube nobles have no concern for the Istria Highlands.  With such a strong desire, if the price is too high, we will consider quitting. It depends on what Lothair will do next. If he can't come up with a practical and effective method, the only thing waiting for the German warriors is failure.  We have been so successful in consuming our troops one after another. Perhaps we are not qualified to laugh at Jorcoln." The German nobles headed by Baisier and Sugus can be said to have their own agendas. They participated.  In this highland war, everyone has different interests.  Of course Lothair understands the thoughts of the nobles, but so what?  Although he is the noble majesty of the empire, he cannot force all nobles to do things they do not want to do.  But Lothair couldn't stop. Once this high-low war started, there was no way to stop. At least he, Lothair, couldn't stop.  The Principality of Saxony is close to the Istria Highlands. This attack on the highlands, the Principality of Saxony will contribute the most, which will definitely anger the Easterners. It can be said that the Principality of Saxony has already formed a deadly feud with the Easterners.  The Eastern nobles and the Danube nobles can withdraw from the war, but Lothair cannot withdraw. Even if he withdraws, the Easterners will still not let go of the Principality of Saxony.  So even if there is only 10% hope, we must make 100% effort.  On snowy days, the sky darkens earlier. On this day, the city of Vilnius fell into silence early, but the oil lamps were still flickering in the castle. Lothair kept writing something with a quill in hand, one letter after another, and he poured out the words.  For fear of writing something wrong, several soldiers were called in. He said with a serious look, "Send these letters out as quickly as possible. The future of the empire depends on you." The soldiers all felt this.  It was so heavy that they could hardly breathe.  Several letters were sent out, and several knights ran in the heavy snow, heading towards the unknown. No one knew what would greet the Holy Empire.  In the city of Kiev in the Istrian Highlands, the Gerginets Manor, which is still a bit green now, is also covered in snow. In two days, the snow finally stopped.  Seeing such a beautiful snow scene, Zhao Yougong also had a rare sense of playfulness. Over the years, he has been in a high position and accumulated increasing prestige. His temperament has become more mature and restrained, and he is no longer as relaxed as he was ten years ago.  But today, Zhao Yougong decided to relax for a while, wearing a thick hat on his head, like a naughty boy running in the manor after the snow, building a snowman with his own hands. The snow in his hands was so warm that he couldn't help but think of Chang'an and Bianliang.  We have been away for so long. How are Nuya and Shishi? The children are one year older.  Today, Zhao Yougong has truly experienced the helplessness of war. Once the war starts, no one can decide. If possible, Zhao Yougong will not launch a series of wars in the short term, but since things have happened, he has to fight hard.  If you go on, at least the benefits you deserve must be in your hands.  Otherwise, what is the meaning of this war?  ??My thoughts are flying, just like the snowman in my hand that accumulates little by little??, Claire has a naturally cheerful personality and doesn't care about many things. She hasn't been able to return to Scotland for so long, and the Scottish princess has never been homesick.  The three niangs all said that Claire was a bit heartless and she must live a long life.  Claire didn't know what Zhao Yougong was thinking. She grabbed a snowball, rolled her eyes, held Zhao Yougong's little hand and looked inside, and heard Zhao Yougong scream out.  Damn Claire, Zhao Yougong grabbed a handful of snow, turned around quickly, and sprinkled it all on Claire's golden waves. Xiao Zhiyun and Sanniang were both mature and steady, so naturally they would not play around with Claire like this. They leaned against the white marble pillars  Beside them, some people were chatting together.  Such warm days are so rare. Speaking of which, I have to thank the heavy snow, which temporarily stopped the war in Istria.  With constant fighting, not only the Germans needed a breather, but the soldiers of the Dingguo Army also needed rest.  Sanniang was holding a hot water bottle, her handsome face was flushed, "Sister Xiao, do you think Lothair will be willing to accept the situation in front of him? I don't know how long this short-term peace can last. I have been out for so long, I really miss Chang'an.  "It's rare to see you like this, Sanniang. Like you, I don't like war, but we have a lot of responsibilities and have to do some things." A moving smile appeared on Xiao Zhiyun's face.  , her thoughts had already flown to far away places, and she still remembered the time when she went to Xixia to get married.  On the vast grassland, I met Zhao Yougong, a madman. When I met him, I could no longer separate from this madman.  Xiao Zhiyun really likes this man. Of course, her biggest regret is that she has not been able to give birth to a child yet. This is also Xiao Zhiyun's biggest worry.  After a long time, Xiao Zhiyun's thoughts returned to their original point, and she touched Sanniang's cheek in a funny way, "Don't worry too much, Lothair is called the old fox of Saxony, and he does not deserve his reputation in vain. He  Knowing what choice to make, he must mobilize reinforcements for his own sake, even if he risks the fate of the Principality of Saxony. As long as the Principality of Saxony is eliminated, we can form a multi-faceted attack on the Baltic Sea without the help of the Germans.  The Danes can¡¯t stand us. It is expected that we will definitely be able to go home next year. After being out for so long, I really miss the scenery of Caihe. ¡°Although the exotic scenery is good, it is a bit cold after all, and this is not a real home after all.  Xiao Zhiyun knew something about the situation of the Danes. She had made a series of plans for the Baltic Sea strategy. She must know more about the Danes.  After years of war, Denmark's national strength has declined and it has long lost its courage.  More than two hundred years ago, the Kingdom of Denmark joined hands with the major families in the north and fought in all directions, with great majesty. But now it cannot even maintain its power in the south of England.  The disintegration of the Viking power can be said to be the root cause of the decline of the Danish dynasty. The rise of the Swedes in the Baltic Sea further weakened the Danish control.  Today's Danish Kingdom looks huge, but it is actually just a sick tiger. As long as we find a way to break off the tiger's teeth, the tiger will no longer be a threat.  The two girls were chatting quietly, but they heard Xiao Zhiyun groan, and raised her hand to touch her forehead. The coldness could not dissipate, and her tentacles were covered with water stains.  Looking up at the initiator, he saw Zhao Yougong and Claire standing close together, smiling evilly towards them.  Xiao Zhiyun's face suddenly showed anger, and she no longer acted like a princess, and joined the battle with raised eyebrows, "Claire, I will beat you to death." Claire is not afraid of Zhao Yougong or Sanniang, but she is afraid of Princess Xiao, who is so angry when she sees Xiao Zhiyun  She rushed towards her, frightened her face, and hurriedly hid behind Zhao Yougong, and kept pushing the man in front of her, "It's not me, it's him." Zhao Yougong put away his smile, his face became serious, and he took Claire over seriously, "  It¡¯s you, Chuo Chuo, beat this hateful woman to death.¡±  Of course Xiao Zhiyun knew how thick-skinned Zhao Yougong was, but he didn't take it seriously. The three of them chased each other in the manor, making all the guards dumbfounded.  It's so rare that even Princess Xiao shows such a childish side.  The Gerginets Manor was full of laughter and laughter, which also showed that the situation in Kiev was very good. It was cold winter weather and there had just been a heavy snowfall. But outside the manor, there were several ragged people waiting anxiously. They  The heavy breathing already showed the fear in their hearts.
