Chapter 505: Rectification
Because the Ottoman Imperial City was at the end of the battle, the Cumans, as the sworn enemies of the Ottomans, entered the city to participate in a kick, so when the war ended, the damage to the Ottoman Imperial City was more serious than imagined, of course, the same, due to the random plundering of these Cumans, the treasury of the Great Empire not only obtained nearly 10 million gold coins worth of loot after plundering the Ottoman Imperial City, but also plundered hundreds of warships and transport ships in the port of Ganara in the Ottoman Imperial City. In addition, there are about 80 large fishing boats that can be converted into temporary transport ships, which can be said to be the most gratifying news for Sun Linlai, and even this joy surpasses that the army that never sets finally captured the Ottoman imperial city.
Because the territory of the Ottoman Empire is divided into two parts, one part is the hilly and steppe area that the sun has not set today, and the other area is the two banks of this river leading to the king's inland sea, as a people who drifted from the southern continent, although the Ottomans finally set up the capital of their country here, but in fact the most prosperous and rich cities in the Ottoman Empire, or the urban agglomeration are those cities built on both sides of this great river, After all, the original place where the Ottomans landed in the northwest region of the Central Continent was the two banks of this river, and then, the banks of the great river were also the first areas developed by the Ottoman Empire, and now, they will also become the best channel for the Ottoman Empire to absorb the territory of the Ottoman Empire.
It's not that the sun never sets on foot army is not impossible to attack from both sides, in fact, the Ottoman imperial city itself has several roads that lead to the Ottoman cities on both sides of the river, but the problem is that those cities are generally built with cliffs on both sides, so the more you go to the back, the more difficult it is to move forward. Horse-drawn carriages can't pass (although the Ottoman Minister of War Hill poisoned the Ottoman steppe, but these poisonous grass and plant areas are from the western wall of the Ottoman Imperial City to the Nirya region, so the plants in the vegetation cover area on both sides of the Ottoman River are not poisonous, so in the Ottoman Imperial City, the cattle, sheep, and horses hoarded by the Ottoman soldiers as food and grass can certainly survive).
Ox carts and horse-drawn carts cannot pass, which means that the heavy troops that do not set will transport grain and grass to the front line in time after the sun does not set on foot after the army on foot penetrates, not to mention those dwarf centurions and No. 3 counterweight trebuchets that are specially used for siege, so in Sun Lin's opinion, he can indeed let two small groups of elite soldiers seize several villages and towns built on both sides of the river with thunderous momentum from those stone roads leading to the banks of the big river. But it is absolutely impossible to expect the Sunset Army to use these roads to capture the nearly 10 cities built on both sides of the river, so at this time, the Sunset side can only choose to use the way of warship transportation to go to those cities by water, and then use the beach landing to capture those cities, so at this time, how important are these ships plundered by the Cumans, although some of them seem to belong to the middle region of the King Continent, or other ships of the empire in the Middle Continent, However, in order to be able to assess the Western Regions of the Central Continent as soon as possible, Sun Lin doesn't care so much, and Sun Lin believes that the reputation of the Great Empire that the sun never sets in the past few years can completely make those powerful forces taboo, and at most it will be to lose some money, compared to the nearly ten cities on both sides of the river, the small amount of compensation is nothing at all.
Therefore, in the Ottoman Imperial City occupied by the Sunset Army, the Sunset Army quieted the Ottomans in the city by burning, looting and even slaughtering some Ottomans, and after another Sunset Walking Army transported a large number of siege equipment to the Ottoman Imperial City with manpower, Sun Lin asked all the Sunset Engineers and Mo Forging Engineers in the city to begin to transform those ships moored in the port of Ganara into warships similar to the Hawker assault ship, even if it was impossible to change some Ottoman warships from single sails to double sails, At the very least, make these modified ships like the Hawker Assault Ship, with cabins on both sides of the hull that can provide scorpion crossbow shots from the sunset.
In addition, because this is a coastal siege war, even if those cities have not been invaded by the coast for many years, there are not many defense facilities in those Ottoman cities, and there is not even a wooden wall with a height of more than 3 meters, but even if the port facilities are poor, there will definitely be fortifications, and these relatively strong fortifications cannot be destroyed by scorpion crossbows, so Sun Lin also asked the craftsmen who changed the day to change the ship to draw out 30 ships with larger volume and stronger gravity. Pressing the No. 3 counterweight trebuchet on them gives these retrofit ships the ability to destroy coastal defenses. Of course, Sun Lin could not let the few engineers who never set the sun to complete it in this time, so after giving the order, Sun asked Leo to recruit some Ottomans who had done carpenter work from the Ottoman imperial city for him to reduce the burden of the engineers who never set sunset.
After dealing with the Ottoman Imperial City and how to continue to invade and occupy the Ottoman Empire in the future, the dozens of riverside cities that remained loyal to the Ottoman Empire were left behind, Sun Lin finally began to deal with the problem of these poisonous grasslands.
Thanks to the establishment of diplomatic relations with the Wu clan who have the ability to control necromancy before the Sun Never Sets Empire, and obtained a group of witch herbalists who know how to use medicine from them, Sun Lin used the help of the witch herbalist who stayed after Yuri arrived on the New Delhi Peninsula and rode a griffin to Sun Lin's side in a short period of time.
"Burn it with fire, are you sure? It is important to know that the vitality of the weeds is extremely tenacious, even if a fire only burns the surface of the weeds and not the rhizomes of the weeds, and it will not be long after the fire that these poisonous weeds will stand up again. ”
"No, no, no, Your Majesty, I don't mean to use fire to burn the poisonous weeds, but to use fire to vaporize the poison in this meadow, because the main ingredient in the poison used by the Ottomans is a toxin that is extremely afraid of being evaporated by fire, so we now have to take advantage of the trend of everyone to evaporate the toxins in this land from the ground, so that the pastures in the Ottoman Empire can resume operation."
