Chapter 138： Surround and persuade

Because of the large amount of artillery, artillery shells, food and various materials robbed from Denmark, the march of the army was very slow. But Marin was not in a hurry, because, even if he gave Ditte Marshin more time, the other party would not be able to get enough people.

Even if the Cavalry sent someone to report, saying that the Dietmarshen had mobilized hundreds of people from the west of Hyde City to enter the city, it did not make Marin's heart shake. Because, even if all the people in the Ditmarshen area are concentrated, there are only four or five thousand people, and they are still not the opponents of the army under Marin.

Along the way, the morale of the army was not high, and there was no excitement and anxiety when attacking Denmark. Because, in everyone's opinion, such a thing as Dietmar is really not worth mentioning.

And, most importantly, the wife they robbed in Denmark did not follow the army! I thought that after arriving in the Principality of Schleswig, Marin held a group wedding for them. Then, the soldiers can live a sexual life without shame and shame with the robbed Danish girls. Unexpectedly, Marin did not immediately fulfill his promise, but pulled them to Dietmarschen ...

Marin also saw that the soldiers were not in a high mood, but he had no choice. After all, he can't let the soldiers go with the women? Therefore, he can only let the military priests take a good preaching to the soldiers during their daily rest.

Currently, Marin only has 30 full-time brainwashing priests trained by Assistant Bishop Taylor. On this march, all these priests were brought out. In Marin's 15,000 army, an average of 500 people are equipped with a priest. Although it can't keep up with the level of one instructor in each of our army in the later generations, it is not much different.

Fortunately, Assistant Bishop Taylor has now trained about 80 priests. It's just that these people were distributed by Marin to churches in cities and villages. In addition, a few were sent to the colony.

When he returns to East Friesland this time, Marin also plans to ask Taylor to send dozens more apprentices to the Principality of Schleswig and the Old Kingdom of Oldenburg to take over the work of local missionaries and to be responsible for the promotion and promotion of local people. Brainwashing to avoid local people's dissatisfaction with Marin and resistance.

In the past, these military priests had a great influence on the soldiers. As long as the cloth says, the soldiers will probably be quiet. However, this time the teachers missed. Because, this group of Maotou, the daughter-in-law who was at his disposal took the soul away. They now just want to hurry up to end the war, and then go back and hug his wife ...

"It seems that it is not enough to rely on the military priests alone. You have to get some art troupes. It's okay to sing a song, dance, and appease these big soldiers ..." Marin remembered the art troupe of later generations.

Before TV was popularized, soldiers in our army had to listen to the radio, or from time to time a group of beautiful artists from the cultural troupe performed shows for them, so as to comfort the lonely hearts of the soldiers.

Although the sisters of the cultural troupe who look like fairies, do not have the share of ordinary food soldiers, but letting them look at them from time to time can also comfort their lonely heart. People, with thoughts, there is motivation. Only with motivation can we work hard. Otherwise, a team that eats and waits for death will definitely only be beaten by others.

Amid the loneliness and turmoil along the way, the army finally arrived under Hyde City and completed the siege of Hyde City. At this time, in Hyde City, there were only 1,000 well-trained main militiamen, and 1,200 minions recruited from various places ...

It stands to reason that after the arrival of the army, the siege should be arranged immediately. However, after arriving with the army, Marin did not immediately order the siege, but selected the Frisian soldiers from the East Frisian country from the army, holding the earth horn, and began to face the city in Frisian language. Shout and persuade the Dietmarsh people in Hyde City to surrender to avoid bloodshed in conflict ...

Why? Because Marin fell in love with Woolf Esbrand ...

Of course, Marin did not look at the body of Woolf Esbrand, a forty-year-old uncle, but at his ability and wisdom.

At the end of rigid European doctrine in the Middle Ages of Europe, such a strategy as "Flooded Seven Army" can be used. Woolf Esbrand is definitely a military genius in Europe.

You must know that in Europe, you have not been in contact with the Orientals. Naturally, you do n’t know what "Sun Tzu Art of War" and "Thirty-Six Strategies." Woolf Esbrand can devise a strategy for flooding the Danish army entirely on his own wisdom. Moreover, this person is not rigid.

Marin cultivated Schwartz for a long time, and found a problem, that is-although Schwartz is smart, he also loves to learn. However, probably because of his birth as a knight family, there are always some dogmas and guidelines in his mind. It is okay for Schwartz and the people to shake heads in battle. However, it is difficult to learn to get the most victory with the smallest price. This is entirely because it is influenced by the dogmatic ideas of the knight, and it is difficult to change.

Woolf Esbrand is different. This person is completely born in a civilian family. Starting from an ordinary militia squad leader, there is no dogmatic thinking on the nobility. The thinking is flexible and belongs to the same "practical" as Marin. Activists". As long as it is beneficial to oneself, mountains, rivers and rivers can become a boost to the enemy.

Therefore, Marin appreciates Woolf Esbrand. Although the other party is more than 40 years old, in Marin's opinion, www.novelhall.com ~ has a better talent than Schwartz. If you teach it for a while, you will surely be able to train a famous general.

Therefore, after surrounding Hyde City, Marin did not order an offensive, but sent soldiers of Frisian origin to continually shout into the city to persuade the Dietmarsin to surrender.

If Woolf Esbrand is willing to surrender, Marin does not mind allowing a senior official position. Even Marin intends to make Woolf Esbrand the garrison general of the Principality of Schleswig and be responsible for the Danish offensive.

After all, the Danes certainly will not be reconciled after losing the Principality of Schleswig and Holstein. Since the Principality of Holstein is difficult for the Danes to reach on the south side, they need to capture the Principality of Schleswig before they can reach the south.

Therefore, in the future, the Principality of Schleswig is destined not to be too peaceful. Marin also needed a powerful general to guard the local area and fight against Denmark's counterattack.

But now, Marin's men are extremely lacking in generals. Schwartz and Stade and others, although capable of completing the task of defending the Principality of Schleswig. However, they have other tasks. For example, in the future, Marin will also plot West Frisian to use them. Therefore, Marin is very lack of senior officers. Most of the wandering knights from the knight family can only serve as middle and lower officials. With the ability to command tens of thousands of troops, Marin couldn't find a few.

Because of this, after seeing such a gifted military commander as Woolf Esbrand, Marin suddenly moved the heart of love, and planned to solicit peace. Therefore, he ordered the army to only surround Hyde City without attacking. He hoped that through persuasion, military geniuses like Woolf Esbrand would be brought under his own name to help him expand his territory or Keep one side ...
