On October 21, 1498, when the European Autumn Harvest was in full swing, Marin led the army, first arriving at the most eastern island of Schiermonnikoog.
It's very close to East Friesland, but even so, there is a distance of nearly 50 kilometers from the pier on the east side of Schiermonnikoog to Krummön.
In this era, the speed of sailing boats is very low, and the highest is generally only seven or eight knots, that is, thirteen or four kilometers per hour. This is still in a downwind situation.
Fortunately, the Wadden Sea is in the prevailing westerly zone. So, Marin's fleet went to Krummön and went well. In the evening, Marin's army had completed boarding again, and then began sailing.
Marin used the legendary rope speed measurement method and found that the speed was as high as 7 knots, which was close to 13 kilometers per hour. Then, almost four hours later, the fleet was close to Krumhern.
At this time, there was only a faint moonlight in the sky. Because the moon on this day is just a crescent, the moonlight is very weak. Moreover, it seems that it will fall in the middle of the night.
Marin looked at the "pocket watch", which was about the same size as the alarm clock, and found that it was 11 o'clock in the middle of the night. On the shore at this time, Marin saw someone waving three torches-that was the signal that Sauer and Marin agreed.
This shows that Sauer had long controlled the small fishing village of Krumhön. Fearing that someone would leave the fishing village to report to Emden, Marin had arranged for Sauer to lurk into East Friesland with his reconnaissance force.
On the night of the appointment, Marin asked Sauer's scouts to control the two roads Krummorn leads to the outside world. After completing the control, wait at the beach.
As early as 9pm, Sauer quietly controlled the road outside the village and knocked out the night watchman arranged in the fishing village. Then, he let 30 men watch the village, and he, holding a telescope, kept looking at the sea ...
Finally, at around 11 o'clock in the evening, Sauer saw the shadows of ships on the sea ... Apparently, it was Marin's fleet that arrived. Because other fleets cannot have so many ships. Moreover, in this era, no one likes sailing in the middle of the night. Even when sailing in the middle of the night, the boat was still brightly lit, unlike Marin's fleet, which deliberately did not light up and only relied on faint moonlight. Fortunately for this route, Marin arranged a few captains to walk quietly many times in advance. Therefore, even with the faint moonlight, they can successfully avoid the sandbar and arrive safely. As for the captains who have not passed this line, it is sufficient to direct the ship to follow ...
After approaching Krumhön, under the command of Marin, several ships carrying warhorses and armors approached the two long-prepared pier docks. Other ships approached the shore directly and arranged beach landings.
As for whether the ship may be grounded, Marin didn't care, even if it was grounded. Because after the ship sent people ashore, the task was basically completed.
Moreover, these fishing boats are not large, and generally do not exceed 100 tons. When the battle is over, send someone to push the stranded boats into the water ...
Sure enough, dozens of fishing boats have run aground. But stranded ships were convenient for soldiers who landed on the beach. Because when they got out of the boat, they stepped on the beach.
Because of the long period of prior training, they were very skilled in rolling up their trousers, stepping on the beach, and running towards the shore ...
After about two hours of busy work, all talents were assembled. Then, the war horse and armor were basically unloaded from the dock. Everyone started to receive their armor according to the number on the armor ...
After wearing the armor, Marin gave an order, and the 6000 army quickly moved along the road, led by Sauer's scouts, and marched towards Emden ...
Because it was an urgent march, a distance of 15 kilometers, more than two hours later, the forward troops arrived under Emden. Among them, the 100 veterans of the First Front that Marin trusted most arrived in a small yard northeast of Emden, and began to pass through the tunnel into the city.
After some time, Marin's troops gradually approached Emden ...
"It was ordered that the First Front attack the Emden East Gate, and the 700 Frisian Warriors as the vanguard; the Second Front, block the North Gate, prevent the enemy from fleeing, and wait for the opportunity to enter the city; the Third Front, block the West Gate , To prevent the enemy from escaping, and also waiting for the opportunity to invade the city; as for the fourth square, go south to seize the port and prevent any ships from escaping! "
"Yes, I understand!"
"Okay, the troops who seized the wharf set off first, and they are extremely demanding not to let go of any ship!"
"Yes!"
"The First Faction came with me and waited outside the East Gate!" Marin ordered.
"The main force of the Second Front, follow me to the North Gate!" Schwartz ordered.
"Third party, follow me to Simon!" Franzberg ordered.
"Fourth square, come with me!" Trainee Knight Stade, who was temporarily appointed by Marin as acting head of the fourth square, took the fourth square and quickly went south to control Emden. The port has gone.
After arriving at their respective positions, the commanders of the one-two-three squares did not convene an attack, but were waiting for the south of the city ...
At this point, there was no moonlight in the sky, and the glory of the morning had not yet arrived. Once the fourth square is successful, they will light a fire in the direction of the pier, indicating that they have succeeded ...
More than 1 hour later, the fire was raised in the direction of the pier, and the signal of the total attack finally launched ...
The 100 pioneers in the city also wore a full set of plate armor and picked up a two-handed sword ...
These 100 people were selected from the 400 people who first followed Marin, and they were all well trained. Wearing full body plate armor, no problem when fighting in a short time. Moreover, the team leader was the knight brother Kahn, whom Marin trusted very much ...
Moreover, Marin did not want to expose the tunnel to other fighters. Because, this move Marin is afraid that others will use it to deal with themselves. Therefore, there are only a small number of Marin's close people who know the authentic existence. Even the Lan Xiang excavation team is a person that Marin can trust.
After seeing the rising fire in the south of the city, under the leadership of Kahn, 100 soldiers launched an attack on the East City Gate ...
Kahn waved his mace and quickly smashed several city guards coming out of the city gate cave, and then led people into the city gate cave ...
Because the Emden people did not know that they would be attacked tonight, there were no stones or large tree stumps in the gate of the city gate that blocked the gate.
So, after smashing a dozen guards guarding the gate of the city gate, Kahn successfully rushed behind the gate, then took out a hammer and violently broke the copper lock inside the gate ...
Later, in the sound of a "creak", the gate of Dongcheng was opened by Kahn and others ...
Most of the troops outside the city were a little bit stingy. Originally, they thought it was a storm, and they were all ready to climb the wall. But they did not see Marin prepare any ladders, nor brought artillery for siege.
Just when they were puzzled, they saw that the Dongcheng Gate was opened. So, they suddenly realized that it turned out that Lord Marin had long been ready to respond ...
Marin gave an order, and 700 Frisian warriors, led by 200 heavy armored swordsmen, took the lead in entering the city gate and embarked on the street to Emden Palace.
At this time, the garrison in the city finally responded:
"Some siege! Someone siege!"
"Dongmen has been forced!"
"Dongmen has been forced!"
When such a cry sounded ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The people who had fallen asleep in the city were finally awakened ...
At the same time, the sky has gradually begun to brighten, with a hazy color ...
Before entering the city, however, Marin ordered Sauer:
"You bring 400 cavalry and block all the main roads. If anyone comes, they will all be detained, and they will never be allowed to take the news. In addition, send someone to the south of the city and notify Stade to let the soldiers change their uniforms and pretend Sailors are all over the docks, but they have to carry swords. If there are foreign merchant ships approaching the port during the day, they will all be seized quietly to prevent these merchant ships from taking the news out ... "
"Yes, sir!" Sauer left in violently.
Then Marin ordered:
"Everyone listens well. After entering the city, try not to set fire!" The reason for this is that Marin was afraid of the heavy smoke rising from the city and was seen by the crew on the Ames River. The city is full of smoke, and smart people definitely want to know that there is a battle in the city and it is easy to leak news.
After this order, Marinzema, with the first square, all entered the city ...
