Chapter 1033: The alliance under the city

Only after the war did Yelu Zonglei realize that he easily defeated a team led by an earl, and the captured Earl Zaborowski was a big shot in the Principality of Krakow.

Because in today's era, the marquis in the world of monotheism has not been regarded as a title higher than the earl, and more countries still regard the marquis as the earls of the border and confuse it with the earls. Just like the title "viscount" has not been born in many countries.

In Poland, Earl Zaborowski was already the second only to the king and several dukes, and was an absolute big shot.

His fief is located in the southwest of the Principality of Krakow. This time, he led his army not to rescue Krakow, but to bypass Krakow and infiltrate its rear. Although the Three Kingdoms coalition forces came to Krakow, they thought that the large area between Krakow and Radom was not occupied by the Three Kingdoms coalition forces, so how could it be?

As for the road more than a hundred miles away, the Three Kingdoms coalition only controls the main traffic road along the way, and there are large areas on both sides of the road that are not controlled by them. However, the main armed forces in these places have either gathered in Radom and were defeated by the Three Kingdoms coalition, or gathered in Kelce. There are only sporadic defeated soldiers, which is not a threat to the coalition!

You should know that along the way, the Three Kingdoms coalition forces robbed urban castles and manors, and did not involve ordinary rural villages. Lu Yue clearly pointed his target at the Polish aristocrats and citizens from the beginning. As for the peasants who lived in difficult life, their interests would naturally be violated by the war, but it was definitely not because the Three Kingdoms coalition forces were miserable.

Count Zaborowski's mission is to lead his team into the battlefield behind enemy lines, use his title and identity to call on the peasants to fight, oppose the Three Kingdoms coalition, launch the guerrilla battlefield behind enemy lines, and put the Three Kingdoms coalition into the vast ocean of people's war!

As a result, he died before he succeeded!

But there was a Count Zaborowski and a second Count Zaborowski. As one of the Western Slavs, the Poles were also a very typical forest ethnic group. They knew very well that they could use their familiar geography to harass the enemy's logistics. They did not need to fight bravely and fearlessly. As long as a wave was set off, they could add an additional mountain on the shoulders of the Chinese.

Whether it is based on the feelings of the country and nation, or the general fanatical beliefs and emotions of the medieval world, Poland is not a place that outsiders can easily conquer. As an Eastern European power, as one of the two major barriers to the northern line of the Universal World (the other is the Kingdom of Hungary), the most basic dignity still exists.

However, this situation was not beyond Lu Yue's expectations. It was not a very basic operation? On a certain level, he even welcomed the Poles to self-harm.

It should be clear that Poland is now a large plain. It is not a mountain forest, plateau mountain, or undulating hills, so it is very difficult to set up targeted ambush. Even if it is harassment, the impact will not be decisive when the power has not reached a qualitative change.

What has the greatest impact on the coalition forces caused by the reactionary waves among the Polish people? The answer can only be profits.

No matter how chaotic the militia is, it is also a force of resistance. If you are not careful, the rangers of thirty or twenty people may still be able to fall into the trap.

However, once the civilian armed forces are activated, the most severely damaged will not be the Three Kingdoms coalition, but the Poles themselves. This is a trick called Polish self-harm, and it is also a decision that the Poles remember.

Think about the grass-headed kings who were surging the world when Lu Qian conquered the world. Their strength was not worth mentioning at all, and they didn’t even have a lofty ideal. All they had was a heart to live a ‘good life’.

So how can we live a good life? Looting has become an inevitable choice. The object of suffering can only be ordinary people in the end. Conversely, the energy of suffering has also made ordinary people at the bottom of society want to be more stable and more afraid of war.

The same recipe and the same taste.

In the Eastern world where social wealth is relatively rich, under the rule of the Zhao and Song dynasties, the Central Plains were filled with thieves. How could there be no bandits in the world of One God?

Don’t think that in the dark era of the Middle Ages, the people could not feel rebellious. You should know that the legend of Robin Hood has been circulated in England in this era. Although later literary works have attached this image to the era of the Lionheart King Charlie’s Crusade, reality has proved that this "legendary story" has been circulated in this era when Charlie’s Lionheart King was still in an inexplicable state. Later Robin Hood was only the result of the second creation of writers.

Just like the early Journey to the West and Water Margin.

What's more, Lu Yue had already released a 'Fifth Column'!

It was a team organized by the people of Boleslaw, purebred Poles. Their only task was to attack the rebels under the banner of the rebels, including looting villages and towns, and all the seized belonged to them.

Boleslaw liked this mission very much. Although the disaster-suffering Poles were the Poles, in Boleslaw's eyes, the Poles were divided into the Poles who were ruled by him and the Poles who were not ruled by him. Only those who were ruled by him were the real Poles in his heart.

The city of Kelce also seemed vulnerable under the bombardment of the coalition's stone cannon.

The reason is very simple. The change of the walls of this city from wood to stone was too hasty, and the quality was seriously unqualified.

Like the Slavs, as a branch of the Western Slavs, many of the Poles' city walls were also made of wood. Are the city walls not castles? In history, the Mongols easily beat Poland during the Western Expedition. There are many reasons, but there is no such thing as the wooden city wall.

——Even the capital Krakow, which is still using wooden walls, was burned to pieces.

But in this time and space, the tragic situation of the Ross people and the news from the Tianfang World made the Poles alert to the north. Important cities across the country have changed wooden walls to stone walls. Kelce City is one of them. However, due to shortage of time and insufficient funds, the walls of Kelce City only wrapped a layer of stones around the wooden wall.

When a Liangshan cannon was raised, the city wall was easily destroyed.

The defenders then defeated the enemy under the impact of the influx of troops. The nobles, knights and cavalrymen who fled south crashed into Lu Yue's pocket, and were wiped out, and they were either dead or captured.

Next, the war burned directly to the city of Krakow.

The quiet Vaver River flows silently outside the city, and the towering King's Castle is built on the Vaver Mountain on the left bank of the Vaver River. A crossbow was pushed to the top of the city. The Polish King Vaver Slaw personally took charge of Krakow. One of the two dukes Meshko and Henrik went to Shenluo and asked Emperor Korad III for reinforcements, while the other organized new troops in the area south of Krakow.

Lu Yue was also looking at Krakow with a thousand-mile mirror at this moment. There were really a lot of Poles on the city, and there were no fewer knights or noble entourages wearing chain mail.

"You guys say, should I ask people to persuade the city to surrender now, or should I negotiate an agreement with people after capturing the city?"

Although he had already hit Krakow, Lu Yue did not change his mind at all. The purpose of this battle was to force the Poles to sign the alliance under the city. He did not want to really destroy the Polish Kingdom.
