Chapter 325 6.73 Buchan Bushi VS East Anglia
The Kingdom of Kent is a very small country.
This country is mainly based on the capital "Canterbury", with a total population of no more than 100,000 and an area of no more than 39 square kilometers. Kent mainly develops the power of religion. When the "Church Army" was crushed by Buchan Bushi, no one in the kingdom could stop their progress.
It only took one morning for the Slavic army, riding on giant bears and wolves, and looting a large number of horses along the way, to run all the way in the uninhabited wilderness.
Before dusk, they had already stood on the land of East Anglia, the neighboring country of the Kingdom of Kent.
Among the seven countries, the location of East Anglia is very special.
This country stands on a high ground and is the highest altitude among the seven countries in the archipelago.
Not only that, East Anglia is surrounded by three countries: Kent, Wessex and East Saxon. The harsh and crisis-filled living environment forced East Anglia to develop its own armed forces.
Therefore, the Moa Knight became the best choice.
According to the normal marching route, it is extremely laborious to climb from Kent, which is about 20-50 meters above sea level, to East Anglia, which is about 800 meters above sea level. It would be faster to enter Wessex by taking a detour and borrowing the road from the neighboring kingdom of East Saxon.
However, the upright Buchanbush did not like to turn during the march.
Encountering trees blocking the road → cut them down!
Encountering rivers → wade across!
Encountering food → eat!
Encountering enemies → kill them!
"Always execute the first solution that comes to your mind."
This is Buchanbush's lifelong survival philosophy.
Therefore, when Mohlantin held the map and carefully pointed out a flat official road, the Slav king did not even look at it, and immediately sneered at this "cowardly behavior".
"Hehe, turn?"
"There is no such thing!
I am very comfortable walking on this mountain road. If I turn now, maybe the group of English yellow-haired people on the top of the mountain will think that I am afraid of them!"
Looking at Oleg beside him speechlessly, Oleg also stretched out his hand helplessly.
Although his position is the chief counselor of Bakambusi, in many cases, the suggestions made by him as a "counselor" are not counted.
For example, last year
Bakambusi looted huge wealth in the two provinces of "Frost Ridge" and "Dragon Breath Plateau". According to the popular routine, this money of hundreds of thousands of gold coins is enough for him to build several castles and develop the territory at the same time.
But he didn't.
The Slav king still lives in a tent with leaks on all sides, because he lived with brown bears when he was wandering in the forest as a child and has long been accustomed to the cold.
Even if his concubines and children are shivering with cold and their lips are purple, he is unwilling to build a castle for himself.
Developing territory is even more non-existent.
Oleg even doubted that Bakambusi himself did not know how big his province "Murmansk" was.
If he was in a good mood that day, he would run aimlessly. When he saw the "boundary marker", he would pull it up without hesitation, then carry it on his shoulders, sing a little yellow song, and dance.
After the dance, where he went was completely random.
Sometimes he would inexplicably give up a large area of territory to the neighboring province.
Sometimes he would casually occupy other people's land.
After a long time, no one knew where the exact boundary of the province was.
Hundreds of thousands of gold coins piled up in the tent for a winter seriously affected Bakambusi's life. Since this thing can't be eaten, can't be played, and it takes up a lot of space.
When spring came, he waved his hand and directly distributed this huge sum of money to his vassals.
When the vassals each pushed ten carts of gold coins back to the castle, their eyes were golden.
**
But Oleg also found that the king had almost no defeats in his life after seizing the throne.
This is probably also due to his "anti-routine".
He is an opponent who cannot be guessed at all, because many times, even he himself does not know what he is going to do or where he is going.
For example, now.
When Buchanbush led the army to climb up the vast plateau of East Anglia, he immediately found that
he seemed to be lost.
There were towering trees about tens of meters high all around. All of them looked the same, and Buchanbush squatted under a big tree and scratched his head.
After thinking for three seconds, he came up with a solution.
This solution has only one word:
Burn!
After the flames were thrown, the extremely high altitude of East Anglia, coupled with the dry monsoon in spring, instantly turned the forest into a sea of fire.
The East Anglia-East Saxon coalition forces, which were ambushing in the woods to ambush the Slavic army, with a total of nearly 10,000 troops, were immediately engulfed by the sea of fire!
"Damn it, these Slavic bastards didn't even see us, how could they know where we were ambushing?!"
"Yeah, we hid during the day and moved at night, digging traps for nearly 7 days!
"How could the Slavs set fire to the mountain without even seeing our shadows? !"
"What kind of lunatic would burn a tree just by looking at it!"
"My lords, it's too late to argue about this!"
The dry spring monsoon caused the fire to spread at a terrifying speed since it started. Ten thousand troops ran non-stop in the burning forest, but they could not outrun the speed of the flames and smoke.
They didn’t run out of the woods until the last person was engulfed in flames.
The instigator of all this was humming a little tune and eating skewers, waiting for the flames to clear a path for him to move forward.
The English coalition forces could not imagine that Buchan Bushi had no idea that there were troops hiding in the woods from beginning to end.
He just got lost and wanted to burn all the trees to burn a path.
