Chapter 452： Backwater array

Jim, who was in a state of drama, complained while wiping his nose and tears:

"Two adults, you two don't know. When Master Marin seized East Frisian Lambert, he killed most of the nobles of East Frisian Lambert. Moreover, it was the whole family who killed them together, and both of them Don't let it go! "

Frederick III nodded and said:

"This, I heard it. How did your family survive?"

Jim swallowed:

"Our Kovak family has relatives with Prime Minister Jeffrey's family. My father is Prime Minister Jeffrey's cousin ..."

"Yeah, it's still a big fish!" Joakim I said excitedly. Relatives of the Prime Minister ’s family should know a lot of information ...

"What did you mean by saying" the whole family is dead "?" Frederick III asked.

"Adult Marin ... Oh no, it's the tyrant of Marin. He is very cruel and likes to kill the whole family. If I dare to reveal the secret, he knows it. My family is young and I can't run away. I will be hanged!

"His-so vicious! But this is also good, just after defeating him, we have one more reason-this product likes to kill the noble family ... well ... we are just ..." Jokim I said. Frederick III nodded and agreed.

After thinking about it, Frederick III said:

"Well, before the Marin guy knows, you can send someone to inform your family and let them prepare early to escape from East Friesland. Wait until the battle is decided, and then take the family to Saxony. To At that time, I still enshrined your family as a baron family and gave the land. "

"Of course, the premise is-the intelligence you said has that value ..."

"There is, there is, of course, value!" Jim pretended to be very interested and said.

"Then say it, when you are done, write a letter, plus a token, and give it to my men, let him send someone to your family to inform your family to escape ..."

"But ... East Frisian has strict external population management ... Your men, are you sure you can enter the town of Norden?"

"That's easy. Orich, Emden, and Lyle may not get in, but Norden should have no problem. Because, I heard that after Marin came out with the main force, the army guarding the family all shrank In several important big cities such as Aurich, Emden and Lyle ... "

"Why not let me run away with my family?" Jim said pretendingly.

Frederick III smiled:

"Oh, I'm afraid you are giving false information. So, you will follow me next day. If the information given is wrong, I will kill you ..."

Jim pretended to be terrified, but he was amazed in his heart-Sure enough, Lord Duke predicted that ...

In the end, Jim got the promise of "send someone to inform his" family "", chose "success", and told Frederick III the "true secret" ...

When tearing the double parchment, Frederick III and Joakim I were shocked-and this kind of operation ...

After seeing Marin's "real intentions", Frederick III and Jokim I suddenly realized that it was so ...

The arrangement of this "true information" was so reasonable that Frederick III and Joachim I could not find any problems. So, whether it is the more wise Frederick III, or the young impulsive Joachim I, believe this "true information." After all, the arrangement in this intelligence is so reasonable and in line with their cognition. Unlike the parchment above, it doesn't quite match their perception. Because, their intelligence personnel did not know about the 10,000 army ...

Soon, under the deliberate "negligence" of Hamburg, some scouts circumvented the blockade of the Hamburg cavalry in the east, and rushed to the big camp of the Bossa Allied Forces at night, reporting to Hamburg that they suddenly began to call for Zhuang and Zhuang Frederick III and Joachim I ...

Because this is completely consistent with the "true information" sandwiched in double parchment paper, in this way, Frederick III and Joachim I fully believed Jim's confession. Then Jim was detained by them and stayed with him. Moreover, Frederick III really sent a Saxony messenger to the Kovak family in Norden to inform the people of the family "hurry up" ...

Of course, when the messenger arrived in East Friesland, because Marin had already arranged it in advance, the Kovac family would welcome him warmly. Moreover, he will pretend that he really intends to run the whole family, so as to cover Jim.

At this time, Jim began to pay close attention to the Bossian generals around him to see who had a lot of beards and was about the same height as himself. At that time, it is better to imitate this person's appearance. As long as you steal military uniforms, you can disguise yourself as this person and leave the Bossa Allied Barracks ...

...

And at the same time that Jim was acting in front of the two Electors, Marin also sent people to land on the west bank of the Trava River on the west side of Lübeck City, and began to fight for the front station for the army to cross the river.

Previously, hundreds of trebuchets arranged by the Saxons in the West Bank in order to combat the digging of ships under Marin's squad were all seized by Marin's men and changed their direction.

Moreover, before the appointed time came, Marin sent a large number of civilians to the front of the battlefield in the West Bank and dug the tunnel ...

This time Marin's tactics were intended to play a positional battle with the Bossa Allied Forces, and it was mainly defensive. Therefore, two trench tactics with strong defensive capabilities are naturally the first choice. Therefore, although Marin ’s army has not yet begun to cross the river ~ www.novelhall.com ~ but the man has long been holding an engineer shovel and started to dig two trenches in front of the scheduled battle array.

As long as the two trenches are dug and filled with spikes, I do n’t believe that the enemy can rush over smoothly ...

Of course, in order to facilitate a full-scale attack at a critical moment, Marin also designed a way for his army to cross the trench during the attack-that is, to prepare a lot of rafts to be tied up. When the local army attacked, the local soldiers pulled out part of the inclined wooden point pile that was used to block the enemy's charge before the second trench, and then laid the raft on the two trenches as a temporary wooden bridge. Then, the soldiers can step on the raft across the two trenches, cross the two trenches filled with spikes, and rush to the enemy formation ...

As for whether the enemy will cross the two trenches by constructing a temporary wooden bridge? Marin said-this is no problem. Because the local musketeer will teach the other party how to behave as a soldier carrying the boardwalk in minutes ...

Marin inspected the topography of the site and knew that his army was about to form an array this time. But Marin has no worries because the defensive power of the Spanish phalanx is very powerful in this era.

Moreover, the backwater of this backwater array is not a dead end. Because, after occupying the big pits where the rock throwers were buried, there was nothing on the Travo River that threatened the ships of Marin and Lübeck.

Now, despite fighting against the water, Marin's 20,000 army can easily achieve food supply and ammunition supply through the ships on the Trave River, but it is not Han Xin's original state of "backwater fighting". The soldiers don't have to worry about the supply, they can naturally rely on the Spanish defensive lineup with high defensive power, and stick to it for a long time. At the very least, there is nothing wrong with waiting for the 18,000 reinforcements of Woolf Esbrand and Saqqara to arrive and sneak attack on the enemy battalion ...
