After Becoming The Tyrant - Chapter 151

As if with the help of heaven, the first holy army gathered from all the countries on the east coast of each abyss Strait passed through the storm and arrived at kosiya.

“Why did you choose kosiya as your first target?”

Asked sissian, the best personal friend of Pope theold.

They are in a white warship protected by many ships, sailing on the sea of the abyss. The Pope was determined to be the commander-in-chief of the holy army movement, but he did not appear in the army that rushed to kosiya.

This time, the holy army is divided into three groups. The first group is mainly composed of people from the alliance of small countries in the hopeless inland sea and the abyss. This holy army is the closest to Legrand and the earliest to complete preparations, also known as the “holy army on the sea”. The main force of the second holy army is the holy Empire, which includes the most elite forces of the Holy See. The Templars and the eternal knights are among them. Because of the large number of people and more preparations, they are the second holy army to go to Legrand. This is the most powerful army under the control of the emperor, known as the “Holy Land holy army”. The last holy army was composed of the northern holy army and the frontier holy army of the lowland alliance.

The last holy army will not officially join the battlefield until mid July.

The three sacred armies constitute an unprecedented large army, with a total of more than 200000. [1]

the Pope took no time to put a small white flag on the sand table, and the flag symbolizing the Sea Corps directly under the Vatican was placed in the front, with a golden cross: “the golden land of Legrand, cothia. If we didn’t encourage the five port alliance to monopolize the southeast business of Legrand, do you think the lowland alliance will win in the business competition from the abyss channel to the hopeless inland sea, or the southeast chamber of Commerce of Legrand? ”

Not familiar with shipping and commerce, he frowned and thought, “I’ve heard that the lowland alliance’s ship technology is better than that of Legrand. Even without our help, it should be the lowland League

“No, it’s Legrand.” The pope said, “you only see the ships of the lowland alliance, but you don’t see their internal disputes. They are composed of dozens of small city states and small countries, which are a group of lambs gathered together. When the sheep gather together, they can protect themselves, but they can’t compete in the world. And Legrand is different. ”

The Pope closed his eyes slightly, as if remembering something.

“In the 11th century, William I began to relax export restrictions and formulate the first tariff support regulations. Although this regulation was opposed by the aristocracy in the later period. So William I turned to help the establishment of the alliance of five ports, which was initially established to help the new commercial cities in the southeast of Legrand resist the oppression of monasteries and old nobles. ” The Pope opened his eyes and said, “business is an industry opposed by doctrines, and a class that naturally stands opposite to us. From then on, Legrand saw where they could borrow their swords against us. ”

“During the most prosperous period of the five Port Alliance under the influence of the royal family, it repelled Blaise’s expeditionary army many times. If the five port alliance continues to develop in accordance with the original wishes of the royal family of Legrand, it will form an unprecedented southeast chamber of Commerce Alliance, which will weave a net to reach all ports in the world with the port of kosia as the center, through which gold will flow into Legrand. ”

“That’s why we have been secretly helping the main family of the five Port Alliance for so many years.”

Sissian suddenly realized, but at the same time, he was vaguely frightened.

He did not expect that theold had such a deep understanding of these things, or that the Holy See should attach so much importance to Legrand. It means that the holy see is always paying close attention to Legrand’s every move. In a vague way, sissian seemed to understand what other holy places in the twelve holy places were doing these years.

“Anything can become a double-edged sword, and so can the five port alliance. It can expand outward and become a net covering both sides of the abyss, or it can turn back into a net that imprisons roglan himself. ” “They’re not stupid, they’ve been trying to change the direction of it all these years,” the pope said. In fact, war has always existed, invisible and tangible. Over the past years, we have been competing repeatedly with Legrand under the same line. The establishment of the free chamber of Commerce means that they win in the end. ”

“But it doesn’t make sense. Now kosiya is still destroyed. It’s us who win.”

Said sissian with a sincere respect.

“With our efforts to suppress, the southeast business of Legrand can still develop to such a level that we have already lost. There’s nothing to be happy about. It’s a shame. ” The Pope shook his head. “There’s another reason Even if I come here in person, do you think all the holy armies on the sea can really obey my orders? ”

“…… They… ” Sissian hesitated for a moment, knowing that theold obviously didn’t need his own compliment, so he chose to tell the truth, “I don’t think so. The guys of the abyss alliance and the hopeless inland sea alliance are a group of businessmen, and only interests can drive them. ”

“Yes, we can’t control it.”

The pope said.He reached out and pulled up all the flags in kossia harbor except the golden cross.

“Then don’t control it.” Pope a hand, flags scattered in the southeast belly of Legrand, “connive at them, provoke their ferocity, this is a group of greedy jackals, for jackals, we do not need to tame them, we just need to give them a target, let them turn their heads to us, before the tusks will be torn to pieces of Legrand’s southeast trade road.”

Sissian was slightly surprised.

“We are here to destroy this country, not to conquer it.”

The Pope looked up at sissian, and there was a chill in his eyes.

“I see, sire.”

Sissian was solemn, and this time he naturally called west old “Your Majesty.”.

“If you want to destroy this country, why don’t you let the angels come directly to Legrand?”

“Do you think it’s just an accident that the Dragon Wing warship appeared at the divinity wharf?” The Pope asked, “the legions of angels have their own enemies. It is not the kingdom of God or hell that determines the outcome of this war. ”

The Pope looks down on the sand table.

He planted a second flag with a golden cross near the city of helid.

“In the holy Empire and the Empire of Legrand.”

“In our hands.”

………………

If there were people who could not understand the meaning of the king’s order to summon “all the adult men over the age of 16 and under the age of 60 to fight for Legrand”, now they understand. Both the nobles and the common people understand. The fall of kosiya and the massacre of kosiya and its nearby towns have already explained everything.

There is only one meaning to take up the sword –

guard Legrand.

At night, the horses still hiss, the tents in the valley are neat, and the rose flag, the symbol of the royal family of Legrand, is rustled by the cold night wind. After a day and a night of galloping, the army led by the king himself finally settled down to rest.

Most of the soldiers had fallen asleep with their swords on their backs, and the king’s tent was still brightly lit.

The king, General John, and several other noble officers stood around the map spread out on the table, and the candle light shone on each face with the same dignified look.

More than 200000 enemy troops, a huge and terrifying army. [2]

in the face of such an army, any country can only be destroyed except surrender. Heavy pressure on everyone’s shoulders, forcing people almost breathless. Even the people of Legrand will not be optimistic about the war. The rest of the world saw roglan as the ruins of the future.

However, no one in Legrand would like the tragedy of kosiya to happen in the whole land of Legrand.

Now, all this pressure is on the shoulders of those who are leading the army, who are carrying the destiny of this country.

Alchemists March fastest, led by Queen Elinor himself, to the city of helid. During the rebellion some time ago, the director of the Judicial Bureau stayed in helid city for a long time. The “crows” spy network, which was under the charge of the director of the interior, tried hard to sneak in and sent back some extremely important news.

The holy see carried out a large-scale transformation of Swan harbor in herid city.

It’s very likely that you want to use other methods to prepare for the “holy ship Tianzhou”.

In his cultivation, Charles wrote to the king and told him in detail how he felt when the holy ship, Tianzhou, appeared. Even if the temporary God seat could not summon a complete holy ship, it was enough to have a subversive impact on the whole mortal war situation.

Therefore, the queen mother of Eleanor led the alchemy knights to go first, and once there were related fluctuations, they immediately opened the attack.

In addition, the first troops of the holy army arrived in the southeast of Legrand, but they were only the vanguard troops of the abyssal countries and the hopeless inland countries. The holy army, the most important of the holy army, had not yet arrived.

Of all the holy forces, the holy army of holy land is the one that poses the greatest threat to Legrand.

“The holy army of the holy land is in the middle.”

The king looked at the whole battle, and his voice was steady and powerful.

The fall of kosiya and the plunder of the holy army on the sea made many people panic. At this time, the majesty and calmness of the king calmed them down. Along the way, thanks to the king always leading the army, the soldiers could always see the presence of the king’s flag with them, and the cohesion of the army increased instead of decreasing.

“Who will command this army?”

General John frowned at the map.

“Pope, theold.”

Said the king.

All the people in the main account looked unbelievable, but the king didn’t explain. He marked out several castles on the map.

“With our strength, we must try our best to avoid large-scale confrontation with the holy army at the beginning of the war. We must guard these castles and never be occupied by the enemy. ” The king soberly and calmly made the most important decision, “200000 troops will all arrive in Legrand within one month. We can’t and can’t face each other head on.””From Laixi port in the northeast to Keya mountains in the south, we must build an indestructible defense line and maintain it for at least four months under the impact of 200000 troops until the end of summer, the end of autumn and the arrival of winter.”

“At least four months.”

The king looked up and looked at everyone.

“Even if you take the bones and the heads, you have to support this line of defense for me.”

………………

Gulundi grassland.

As the wind blows across the earth, a squadron sets out in the direction of Holy Spirit Bay, holding high the golden flag. The horses gallop by, the men and the horses are fierce.

At the front of the line, Hal Mo, the barbarian emperor and former head of the Grundy cavalry, gazed at the horizon like an eagle with gray eyes.

His son, hamu, caught up with him: “father, roglan has been cut off from us.”

He showed some concern.

“Holy army, the holy court is coming. Do you think Legrand can support it? Compared with west old, purland is too young. Can he resist? ”

Can he?

Hal squinted and turned to the other side of the abyss.

In front of him, there was a young emperor who was standing against him in the distance across most of the battlefield. His silver hair was stained with blood, and his ice blue eyes were familiar with the cold light.

“They don’t need us to worry. Our battlefield will come next!”

Hull said.

“Go

The author has something to say: [1] the data are from (British) Charles Orman. History of war art in the Middle Ages Vol. 1 [M]. Beijing: Taiwan Strait press. 2018.

[2] the population density and productivity level in the middle ages were low, and the country’s military endurance was poor, so the number of troops at that time could not be measured by modern standards. According to Jeffrey Parker’s reliable data, in the 1470s, the number of Spanish troops, French troops and British troops in major European countries was about 20000, 40000 and 25000. What’s more, mercenaries were very common in medieval wars. In addition, the British military system also has the civil military system. In 1181, Henry II stipulated in the military act that all free citizens should have combat weapons to prepare for war. In 1252, Henry III further revised it on this basis, and later reiterated it in the Winchester act. But the main thing to note is that the civil army is generally used for local defense. One evaluation is that “the first front against foreign invasion is not the regular army, but the militia.” 】
