The Rise of Iceland

Vol 3 Chapter 362: Kenbi Kiyo

Olaf’s army ran for hundreds of miles, and finally relied on bold operations and unexpected appearances to lure the Polish cavalry regiment into an ambush, and finally defeated the 6,000-man Poland composed of more than 1,000 winged cavalry and more than 4,000 Crimean cavalry. Cavalry regiment.

The Polish Cavalry Regiment was almost completely wiped out. At the same time, it also solved the crisis of the Prussian city of Memelburg. It also defeated the main force of Poland's attack. It won a huge strategic victory, and it will definitely be after the battle. Greatly boosted the reputation of Sweden, severely dampened the morale of Poland and Lithuania.

   Olaf led the army to simply clean the battlefield, cook and rest. About two hours later, he reorganized his army and continued northward, preparing to make dumplings for the Cossacks in Latvia who are enjoying the free Tesco for the whole family.

   Hundreds of wounded soldiers were sent to the city of Memmelburg, while the rest of the army went all the way north, returning to Latvia at a faster rate than it had been in the past.

   When the army entered Latvia, it broke up into ten thousand-man squads, dragging the net and advancing north.

   The Cossacks are similar to the Manchurians. Although they are superb riding skills, they are good at foot combat, so Poland recruits Cossacks for infantry.

   After Olaf’s army dispersed, he soon encountered a small group of Cossacks carrying big bags and a large group of Cossacks who were **** women in towns and villages and forcing property.

When they met the greetings of muskets and swords, the Cossacks, who looked like tigers in front of the villagers, were not enough to look at the regular Swedish army. Most of them collapsed at the touch of a touch, and then they knelt down and begged for mercy. A few did not cause much harm to the Swedish army. It was hacked and killed.

   By the time Olaf’s army returned to Estonia, the whole of Latvia had been regained. Although the people suffered heavy casualties and tens of thousands of homes were destroyed, the wealth accumulated by the Cossacks who robbed them for several days also fell into Olaf’s army pockets.

   went back to the governor's house, and after waiting for a day, all the troops returned to Estonia.

  Yesni Lainen collected all kinds of information and came to the Governor's Mansion. When he entered the door, Olaf was sitting on the turf in the courtyard, and there were lamb skewers on the charcoal stove in front of him, which was obviously a barbecue.

   If there is no cumin powder, Olaf uses black pepper and mint juice, which gives it a special flavor.

   "It came just right, taste it." Olaf picked up a few strings and handed them to Jesnylenin.

   Yesini Laining shook his head and said, "I don’t eat it because I’m too old."

   "What's the matter?" Olaf was kicked up without reluctantly taking it back.

"The troops that we lined up to clear the Cossacks are all back. The casualties are not serious, more than 80 people died, 100 injured, more than 2,000 Cossacks were killed, 800 captured, 300,000 pounds of food and 18,000 gold coins were seized. Mark, 50,000 marks for silver coins."

   Olaf nodded and said, "Has the soldiers' allowances been deducted? Let's be more generous."

  Yesni Laining smiled and said, "These little boys have dark hands. If I hadn't collected it myself, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to collect the money."

   It is customary for soldiers to rob in the war, but it is also customary to turn in part of the spoils. Olaf does not want to break any rules, especially breaking it will not help him in any way.

   Olaf asked: "What's the situation in Latvia now?"

   Yesini Lining said solemnly: "I was robbed by the Cossacks for three days. The situation is very bad. The people in most villages and towns don't even have much food."

   Olaf nodded and said, "Well, let's call all the Latvian people here now, and send them dry food to send them away?"

   "What are you?" Jesnylenen was very confused.

   Olaf smiled slightly and explained: "What if the entire southern part of Estonia becomes a no-man's land?"

   Jesnylenin took a breath and said, "Do you want to give up Latvia?"

Olaf said non-committal: "Yes, no. Our troops are too small to force the people of Latvia to death. They will not respond wholeheartedly to us, and the next Polish offensive will probably organize a decent army. Let's It is difficult to defend Latvia. It is better to give them a deserted Latvia, which can drag them down, and then we will look for opportunities to fight with them in Latvia. Great victories are not necessarily true. Small victories are absolutely fine. What do you think? "

   Jesni Lenin nodded and said, "Your Excellency Marshal thought well, but Latvia has a small population of more than 100,000. How do we place them?"

Olaf thought for a while and said: "There are too many people and it's okay. Half of them were sent to the Duchy of Pomerania and handed over to Uxenschena and the Duke of Boguslaw. Now there is a shortage of civil servants and rear population on the battlefield with Germany. , Sending tens of thousands in the past can also fill the vacancy. More than half of the remaining half will be transported to Iceland by some big ships. I asked my father to place them. We will turn Latvia into a physical desert and let the Poles enter Latvia to supply supplies. There are no clean water, food, or a place to rest."

  Yesni Lainen nodded and agreed, and then asked: "If you want to reach the level of your Marshal Marshal, just summon the people and send them away, right? What else needs to be done? I will make arrangements together."

Olaf said hesitantly: "When the people were gathered, they burned the houses. Didn’t the Cossacks and the people die a lot? Anyway, we didn’t have time to bury them, so we threw a few dead bodies into the springs and wells, like The rivers and streams of the Danube and Daugava have to discard more dead bodies in the upper reaches, and all water sources in Latvia must be polluted.

When we take the people back to Estonia, we must ensure that there is no river or water pool in Latvia that is clean, there is no town in which the army can be stationed, there is no land, food, and population. When Latvia becomes a plague, the water source is destroyed. Purgatory on earth, how do I think the Poles will occupy it? "

There was a chill in Jesnylenin’s heart. He wanted to say that this would accidentally hurt the Duchy of Courland and Semigaria in the lower reaches of the Daugava River, but when Olaf’s mouth was smiling, his heart moved, knowing that Latvia had become In the death place, Courland and Semigalia are very conspicuous. I am afraid Olaf still wants to let the Polish army go to Courland and Semigalia to fight, smash and burn.

So I didn’t say much, and I simply agreed. At the same time, I ordered someone to take a pen and paper to write it down in detail, saying: “It is estimated that it will take ten and a half months to mobilize soldiers and horses in Poland, or one month. Personally supervise the implementation of this solid wall and clear country work."

   Olaf saw that Jesnylenin seemed to have more respect for him, so he said lightly: "Thank you for your hard work."

   "It doesn't work hard. If the seized grains are distributed to the masses, there will not be too much left. Should we send someone to Szczecin to ask Uxen Siena to distribute more munitions?"

   "No need~www.wuxiaspot.com~Uxenchena didn't want us to keep Latvia, nor would we prepare our share, so it would not give us more rations.

   We don’t want to be infamy, and we have to rely on ourselves to do our best. In a few days, there will be Dutch and Icelanders who will sell food, dried fish and other materials. We can buy more with the collected money. "

  Yesnylening thought about it, the Dutch are indeed the most sensitive nose, and they would come to sell food and supplies as soon as they were fighting.

   As for whether the Icelanders will come or not, don’t worry, Olaf is the heir of the Principality of Iceland. He said there might be people who come back from Iceland to sell dried fish.

   said some more details, and Jesnylenin retreated and walked to the shade of the trees outside the governor's mansion.

Although there was a cool breeze on a cloudy day, the old governor was still in a cold sweat and couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect this adult to be so terrible. Even the Duchy of Courland and Semigaria want to do it together. Lose.

   Courland and the Duchy of Semigaria have never been stabbed in the back. Why should it be necessary to cause Poland to plunder the Duchy of Courland and Semigaria?

  啧, no wonder the emperor asked him to be Christina's godfather to fight for power with Uxen Siena. The methods are really clever!

   But he is cruel, and I am afraid that if Uksenchener falls in the future, His Majesty Christina will not be able to cure him..."
