After Becoming The Tyrant - Chapter 175
As the cold wind was blowing across the land, the defensive preparations of Jolin county were carried out in a tense and orderly manner under the king’s command.
Almost the whole city was mobilized, and the king’s clerk walked through the streets, posting such a notice of the battlefield at every crossroads. Scholars and bards tell people over and over again that the lost land in the southeast of Legrand is recovering, and their struggle is fruitful. As long as everyone can work together to stick to Jolin County, Legrand will usher in a brilliant victory.
Every recovered town in the southeast has its name engraved on the wall to inspire everyone.
The king forced the officers to accept the new model of military planning by means of high pressure, which showed its advantages at this time. Experienced the “torture” of the Quartermaster officers quickly worked out a reasonable plan, scheduling the nearby cars and horses, methodically transported all the food around the city of Jolin. [1] Trees near Jolin County suitable for making siege equipment were also cut down early and transported into the city, which became the raw materials for carpenters and architects to build fortifications.
The mathematicians who worked with the quartermaster to sort out the “logistics system” had no better life than before, because after the surrounding grain was transported into the city, the king’s order reached them again.
They have to work with Quartermaster officers to count the grain reserves that Jolin now has, and then work out a rationing system as reasonable as possible.
This is probably the most rigorous and infallible transportation of grain in the history of Legrand. The king assigned a cavalry to guard the granary and set up a supervisor. Whoever dares to hide food will be executed on the spot.
When the scout reported that he saw the flag of the holy army appear on the horizon, the last carriage with timber retreated into the city.
The winch turns, the suspension bridge rises and the gate slams shut.
The sky and the earth were dim. In the dark, the county of Jolin sealed the city.
“Here they are.”
The king stood on the observation tower. He heard the warning horn from one tower to another. The whole city was like a creeping wild animal in the twilight, showing its warning fangs to the approaching enemy.
The horizon is filled with smoke and dust, in which countless crosses are raised high, and the bloody Knights of the temple are just like the legendary doomsday knights. The LORD said that God gave them the power to fight against them, taught them to take peace from the ground and kill each other. The sword in their hands was a weapon given by God, and those who killed with that weapon would not be attributed to their sins.
There is one of the most brilliant and dazzling crosses.
It was a golden cross as tall as one man.
The Pope, the emperor of the holy Empire, the symbol of theolde.
Now, the two most powerful and outstanding emperors of this era have finally set foot on the same battlefield.
The army stopped at a distance from the city of Jolin in the bleak sound of the trumpet, which can be called orderly. The front of the army split, the golden cross was held high forward, and a carriage drove out of the army. In the distance, the king saw someone coming down from the carriage.
The people who came down from the carriage looked from afar, and their eyes fell precisely on the tower where the king was.
“West old.”
The king whispered.
“Purland.”
The stallion spewed white air from its nose and set its iron hooves on the ground. The wind, the friction of armor, the battlefield is still noisy. Theold stood on the ground, muttering to himself with a sigh.
Just as the king saw him, he seemed to capture the king for the first time.
“Camp.”
He ordered.
A white hawk circled in the sky, then gathered its wings and landed on Pope theold’s outstretched arm.
It’s from Holy Spirit Bay.
…………………
Holy Spirit Bay, Holy See, holy city.
Cardinal segni stands outside the bronze gate of the sanctuary. There are many exquisite reliefs on the bronze gate behind him. It tells the story of the apostles who were appointed by the original Lord to walk on the earth. The angels fight with the demons, and the heretic city-state is destroyed on the day of judgment.
There was sweat in his palm and a secret letter in his arms.
A letter from the holy Empire, written by Philip III himself.
Segni did not know whether his choice was right or wrong, but with the launching of the holy army movement, Pope theold chose the fleet of the abyss alliance to transport the army, and the hopeless inland sea caravan began to decline rapidly. In particular, the furkin Empire attacked Holy Spirit Bay and many ports. The merchant ships of his family were burned by the barbarians.
Pope theord is increasingly divided from the Presbyterian Church, and their Cardinals always have to make a choice.
He’s just a little bit more help on the crack, it’s nothing.
Segni comforted himself in his heart.
He thought so and went into the bronze door.After the last cardinal stepped into the secret church, the bronze door closed behind him. From this moment on, all the doors of the church were sealed and no one was allowed to enter. The guardian Knights of the holy see stand guard outside the secret church. It will be isolated from the world until the end of the important choice that will happen in it.
This kind of standard ceremony used to appear only in the selection of the Pope, but now it is held again with Pope Theodore Shang.
Deep in the secret church, in the chamber normally used to discuss the election of the Pope, thousands of candlelight lit the chamber brilliantly. On both sides of the long table sat a man in black robes. Most of them were old and dying. Segni sat down at the end of the long table, knowing that he had no say here.
All the cardinal clergy who were still in the sanctuary were gathered here.
What will be held here is a trial concerning the whole holy see.
An absolutely secret and shocking trial.
Trial of Pope theold.
In terms of doctrine, the Pope, as the incarnation of God, can never make mistakes, let alone be guilty. However, in the top secret documents inside the Holy See, there is a secret provision in the original twelve bronze books. When it is a last resort, under certain conditions, gathering all those who are qualified to participate in the selection of the Pope, and gathering in this place where the Pope is given the holy status, is able to hold the trial of the Pope himself.
This trial is absolutely not allowed to be open to the public, so several secret trials in history ended with the death of the tried Pope. The holy court still maintains its holy face.
However, this trial is quite different from the past. The trial paper was drawn up early, and the deacons such as segni only signed on the paper.
Under the reflection of the candlelight, the faces of the old people on the desk are cold. They are like a corpse coming out of the coffin, with a deep twilight, but in the twilight there is a formidable power. They are the seven elders of the holy court, corresponding to the seven angels in power mentioned in the holy book.
The seven elders appeared together in the secret meeting, which covered an irrefutable conclusion for the trial.
Sagney took a deep breath and signed his name on the trial papers.
He was the last cardinal to be invited here. After he signed his name, the bell rang in the cold forest church, and the sound reverberated between the corridor and the room. At this moment, segni thought that he was the one who got the revelation. He heard that the God who used to be and will always be unveiling the prophecy of the end in his ear. Hongzhong was the signal of that day.
Segni forgets himself in the bell. When he wakes up, he is in the secret room of the church and completely forgets what he has just done.
The bell sounds like a roar from the ground, echoing for a long time.
Deep in the big church, there were only seven elders left on the long table.
The document that condemned theold to depart from the doctrine and blaspheme was placed in front of the elder who sat in the first place. He pushed it into the middle of the long table and looked up at the others.
“God’s power is given to believers, not to transgressors.”
An elder said hoarsely.
“The thief will be destroyed.”
The elder sitting in the first place had no sorrow or joy on his face. He raised his hand and drew a cross on his chest.
The elder who opened his mouth first put a copper box sealed with lead on the table. Another elder held a candle that melted lead. As the sealed lead slowly melted, the cold wind in the hall made the candle flicker. It seemed that there were countless Holy Spirits singing in the air and countless snakes laughing in a low voice.
The box of taboos.
There’s an old contract that even the Pope can’t know. It’s the oath mentioned in the holy book – the original contract between God and man!
When the copper box opened, the contract between man and God was picked up by the old man.
The volume was filled with strange words inside and outside, sealed with seven seals.
The first elder slowly uncovers the first seal, and then transmits it to the second. The second elder opened the second seal, and then passed it on The third seal, the fourth seal Last print!
All the candles went out in a flash.
“The seven seals have been uncovered. We should open the door of the kingdom of God and the world, and bring God back to the earth.”
The elder held up the scroll with his hands high. Every word in the scroll was shining brightly, making the cold hall as bright as day.
