After Nord entered bath territory, he could feel that his resistance was significantly improved, because the Principality of Bethel had never been so deep in the hinterland before, because the civilian life here was still rich, unlike the withering population of those territories on the border.
Nord found that there were six or seven thousand people in a small town led by bath, and the villages Nord met along the way were very busy. Only when Nord led the troops across the border, these civilians would hide in their houses in fear, as if the previous war had nothing to do with them.
However, from their shabby clothes, it can be seen that the lives of these civilians are not as rich as Nord imagined. They may not lack food here. These civilians can live strong, but they do not have enough materials for their consumption.
However, such a huge population base has also brought great trouble to Nord. For example, when Nord attacks a town, those nobles can always recruit a lot of soldiers to rush up the wall to fight Nord. Due to the huge war potential of Ximan Kingdom, Nord has more haze in his mind.
Although these temporarily recruited soldiers do not have strong combat ability, they can also consume Nord''s troops with the advantage of quantity, not only the information of personnel, but also the physical and mental consumption of soldiers. Nord slowly came to Bart city half a month after entering bath.
Bart city is the territory of the Marquis of bath and the largest and strongest city in the bath collar. Nord fought here all the way, and more than 10000 soldiers were a little tired. Nord didn''t know whether the nobles of the Ximan kingdom were not the same kind as the people they met before, or whether they received a death order. Anyway, after Nord entered the bath collar, The resistance of those nobles was very firm.
Even though he knew that he had no chance of winning, he set up many obstacles for Nord in various towns, which also dispelled Nord''s idea of occupying the whole bath collar first. According to the resistance of these nobles, Nord would take at least three months to occupy the whole bath collar, and then the cauliflower would be cold.
Then the significance of Nord''s raid on Jiman City, the capital of the Ximan Kingdom, will be lost. Three months is enough for the royal family of the Ximan kingdom to make sufficient preparations. They can calmly dispatch troops from all parts of the Ximan Kingdom, and Nord will lose the opportunity to solve the Ximan kingdom in World War I.
Therefore, after encountering such strong resistance, except for the towns along the road, Nord ignored those remote towns and quickly pushed directly to the bottom of Bart city. Nord felt a great headache when he looked at the full soldiers on the BART city wall.
Nord is now very clear that these nobles of the Ximan kingdom must want to fight against Nord''s attack. In addition to the death order issued by the Ximan royal family, it is likely to have a great relationship with Nord''s weakening of the privileges of the nobles in China.
Since Nord has just taken control of the city of belon, he does not have so much control over the city of belon. Unlike the previous Isaac collar, everyone has his own identity card, which can quickly distinguish foreign populations and prevent foreign spies. Now there are still many things to be done in the kingdom of de Mongolia, Therefore, the present kingdom of Damon looks like a sieve in the kingdom of seaman, with loopholes everywhere.
Although the Ximan kingdom cannot cause unrest in the kingdom of Damon as before, and Nord''s control of power is much stronger than Archduke Bethel, now Nord''s army is monolithic, and the kingdom of Ximan has no chance to penetrate, but Nord can''t do anything about all kinds of news about the kingdom. The kingdom of Damon doesn''t have much secrets about the kingdom of Damon.
It is very likely that as soon as Nord set out to fight, the spies of the Ximan kingdom had received the news, and then quickly sent the news to China. Of course, Nord''s various policies in the kingdom of Damon must also be known by the nobility of the Ximan kingdom. Perhaps in their view, Nord is digging their roots. Is a nobility without territory still called nobility, The nobility of the seaman kingdom must be unacceptable.
It''s no wonder that they will fight so hard. Nord doesn''t believe that these nobles will be so loyal to the Ximan Kingdom and fight so hard to resist Nord''s attack. Even if he knows the reasons for these nobles'' firm resistance, Nord has no way, because it''s Nord''s national policy to weaken the privileges of nobles and improve the status of civilians, which can''t be changed at all.
Then Nord''s eyes became very cold. Looking at the Battle City, Nord also held a breath in his heart. Since he can only fight for strength now, Nord is not afraid at all and will not be counselled at all. Before arriving at the Battle City, Nord has sent a message to Rayman and Marco to come immediately. Now there is no need to feint, It''s better to clench your fist and hit the kingdom of seaman to the ground.
When he came to Bart City, Nord let the soldiers rest for a day before launching the attack. He still fired a sharp whistle and arrow in front of the array. Now this action has almost become a necessary ceremony for Nord''s army before attacking the city. Nord''s soldiers call this ceremony Eagle cry to frighten the enemy.
Nord did not choose to attack the city on all sides, because the number of troops in Bart is no less than Nord''s troops. Nord now has nearly 10000 soldiers, and there are at least 8000 people in Bart, most of whom are newly recruited recruits.
Nord doesn''t have much advantage in quantity, but there is a big gap in quality. Nord''s soldiers are elite soldiers who have experienced many battles, and Bart city may be new recruits who have just boarded the battlefield. Nord only needs to concentrate on some, and these soldiers are difficult to resist the attack of Nord''s forces.
Now it is difficult for the Nord troops to deceive the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom tactically, and it is difficult for those who shout and kill to deceive the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom who have been prepared in advance, but the art of war is actually empty, empty and real, after suppressing the recruits above the wall with long-range troops.
Nord''s melee troops went up the city wall with a cry of killing. Although they did not seduce the soldiers on the city wall, it also gave Nord''s troops an opportunity to climb the city wall. It was at this opportunity that Nord''s troops stabilized on the city wall, and the light infantry temporarily recruited by the Ximan kingdom had not been able to come out of the defensive position, Nord''s melee troops were already in front of them.
When their combat effectiveness is not as good as Nord''s soldiers, the troops of the Ximan kingdom are in an absolute disadvantage, but they are extremely tenacious. They don''t want to be defeated if the situation is bad. Nord''s melee soldiers are at a standstill, and the subsequent troops can''t climb the wall at all, because the roads ahead are blocked.
Nord had known this situation before, because the tenacity of the soldiers of the Ximan kingdom made Nord greatly improve them along the way. In fact, their combat effectiveness was not too weak. Otherwise, they could not have fought with the Principality of Bethel for so long. The main reason was that their noble family was too spineless and ran away without taking the initiative, How much combat power can his soldiers have.
