Section 31 Commanders of the Crusaders

The craze for signing up for the crusade, which lasted for three days, finally subsided. Many of the former and present untouchables calmed down and thought about it, but it was not a bad thing that the Righteous Crusade did not participate in the conquest of the Temple.

His Highness the Son has promised that only a certain percentage (35%) of the food and goods they produce will be paid as a tribute to the God of Light. In addition, an additional 20% was provided as a military tax during the crusade, which was immediately exempted if the levy ended. The remaining 45% goes to themselves. And they also have the right to use money.

What could be better than that? All the food and goods that had previously been produced by oneself had to be surrendered to the temple in full. Less than 20 per cent of them were distributed. Even if you have enough food and clothing, it is already very difficult. Now there are no more abominable priests and bishops who weigh on their heads, and if they work harder, they can produce twice as much food and goods as before. In the end, what I was able to obtain was equivalent to all that I had contributed to the temple before, which was a lot of wealth.

I can eat meat twice a week, buy a good set of clothes for my family a month, and repair a dilapidated house. When the war is over and the evil temple is overthrown, the surplus grain from the military tax can be used to brew a little wine and have a drink with friends and neighbors in your spare time. Wine, that's a luxury that I couldn't have imagined when I was a pariah...... Those who are in charge of brewing only dare to sneak a sip when the altar is opened.

Life has become better! Think of the terrible power of those wicked priests and bishops...... Didn't His Highness the Holy Son say the same? Even if you give birth in the rear with peace of mind, it will be of great help to the great cause of conquest. We are not good at fighting, but farming, manufacturing, and raising are our strengths. Fight hard, O Crusader soldiers!

Almost every citizen who was not elected to join the Crusaders held the same conviction and threw themselves into their cause.

And the soldiers of the crusaders were also counted.

Level 4 strength: 2,338 people.

Level strength: 1006 people.

Level 6 Strength: 335 people.

Level 7 Strength: 38 people.

Level 8 Strength: 2 people.

Although there are many people, there are not many people who are really powerful. There are only 40 high-level strength people in total, and most of them are still blessed by Harry's light, which has made a breakthrough to a certain extent.

To form an army, Harry felt that the problem was coming!

"Cuomo, do you know how to make an army?" Harry asked, holding the list of crusaders in his hand, looking up.

"I don't know ......" Cuomo scratched his head and replied: "In the past, I had led a brigade of 200 people at most, and I didn't need to organize it, just assign it to a few subordinates and let them take it with me to kill." ”

"......" Harry couldn't help but be speechless. "Ssol, you know what?"

"I ...... I don't know. Thor shook his head.

Harry glanced at Pira, wisely not asking a question.

What do you mean! Although I really don't know, why did I ask the two of them without asking me! Piro thought unconvinced, and blurted out: "I don't know either!"

"I know you don't!" Harry glared at Pyro fiercely.

That's going to be tough...... Harry didn't know much about the formation of the army either. If you let yourself make suggestions and surprise soldiers on the battlefield, you may be able to do one or two, but the most basic army is ...... This made it difficult for him.

Although Harry didn't know how to build an army, he understood that an army with a complete establishment and system could be considered a real fighting machine. If you only rely on the number of people in the pile...... How is it different from bandits?

There's a lack of military talent on my side!! Cuomo and the others looked at Harry with a look of shame on their faces.

"It's better to recruit!" Harry raised his eyelids and said, "Cuomo, Ssol, send someone to send an announcement to find someone who understands military affairs." No matter how high or low the strength is, as long as you have the talent of a commander!"

"This ...... I'm afraid it's useless!" Cuomo said weakly, "In the entire area of Tanta City, I have the most soldiers I have led! The others are either the untouchables of the past, or my and Lord Piro's men, or the local guards. If you want to find a general who can command a large army, it is basically impossible to ......"

"And where are all the generals in your previous wars with the Free Empire?" asked Harry, curiously.

"Over the years, generals have been trained by the royal family. Although there are many masters in the temple, when it comes to military affairs, they still belong to the royal family. This is also the reason why Prince Semetis almost captured the temple with the strength of a thousand people. Most of the generals of the royal family now submitted to the temple because of the arrival of the god of light...... I think it's all in the imperial capital!" Cuomo replied honestly.

Royal?," Harry laughed knowingly.

"Just do as I say!" Harry commanded, "Publish a proclamation in Tanta City, but whoever has military talent will be the commander of the Righteous Crusade once he is assessed!"

"Yes!" Como and Ssol were suspicious.

On the first day, no one signed up. Although there are a lot of people watching the excitement, no one dares to mess around with such a big event, and there is no one who even tries it with a fluke mentality.

The next day, Harry changed the announcement again. The conditions are even more favorable, and he has been blessed three times by the Holy Son himself. Still no movement.

On the third day, someone finally came to apply.

This person has a tough complexion, his right eye is covered by a Dulong eye mask, and there is a 5 cm scar on the left side of his face, which looks very hideous. The hair is unkempt and loose, but it is also clean. The sides of the mouth are all hard stubble, extending to the ears.

His fingers are wide and his physique is strong, and at first glance he looks like a person who practices martial arts. The muscles of his arms and calves show that his strength is extraordinary.

Looking closely at his only left eye, his gaze was as sharp as a blade, and in the depths of his pupils, there was still a trace of yin owl. This man is very scheming!!!

"What's your name?" asked Harry, curious.

"Bibek!" Although the other party deliberately lowered his voice, his tone was still a little soft and slightly magnetic. But it didn't match his physiognomy very much.

"Where are you, why do you know how to do military, what position did you serve in the army?" Harry smiled and asked three questions in one breath.

"Are these important?" Bibget frowned, a slight twinkle in his eyes.

"It's not important! Moreover, a man who has never led an army, I don't think he will understand the military. "Harry probably has a score.

"I'm here to contribute my military talents. If Your Highness thinks I can't do it, I will go back and forth from there, and I believe that the Crusaders will not lack a pawn like me. Bibget replied proudly.

"That's right, but how do I believe you're not from the Temple?" said Harry.

"His Highness the Son was decisive, and in less than 10 days, he formed a crusade to conquer the temple. How can those fools in the temple react so quickly to get the news and send out undercover agents?"

"Yes, I believe you!" Harry nodded, and continued, "Now I need to do a little assessment of you. Are you ready?"

"Can I ask them all out? I want to talk to His Highness the Son alone......" Bibs gave Harry a deep look.

"Cuomo, you guys go out and wait. Harry waved his hand.

"Your Highness, the origin of this person is unknown, I know all the holy knights in the jurisdiction of Tanta City, there is absolutely no such person!" Como looked at Bibbo vigilantly, after all, a holy knight who looks like he has level 7 strength is definitely not simple.

"Captain Como, do you think that a mere holy knight can defeat His Highness the Holy Son? Even if we all join forces, we may not be the opponents of His Highness the Holy Son. I don't know what else you have to worry about?" Bibget snorted softly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"Okay, don't worry, you guys get out. ”

......

"Before His Highness examines me, I also have a few questions I want to ask Your Highness, I don't know ......" After Como and the others withdrew, Bibek said suddenly.

"Excuse me!"

"What is the purpose of the crusades, the complete destruction of the temple and the Holy See?" Bibcock stared into Harry's eyes as soon as the question came out.

"The temple is innocent, and it is only because the people of the temple are filled with evil that the temple becomes the embodiment of evil. After the evil is purified, the temple will still be a temple!" Harry smiled.

"The second question: Is Your Highness sure of victory in this war of great disparity?"

"Tens of millions of believers and tens of thousands of apostates who have defiled the Light. The disparity in strength is indeed huge...... Could it be that you have doubts about your ability to command, and you can't guarantee victory in such a disparity?" Harry laughed playfully.

Now, the third question: if the rule of the Temple is overthrown, who will rule the Holy Light Empire?"

"Of course, my Lord God of Light! My duty is only to judge and purify evil, and when the task is complete, I will leave. For the rest, when the time comes, an oracle will come down. All...... All obey the will of the Lord. "Throne, I have no interest in the position of the Holy Light Empire.

"My question is over, Your Highness can now evaluate me!" Bibke's eyes were cloudy, as if he was thinking about something.

"I have only one question: what will you do if the army is handed over to you?" Harry looked at Bibsick quietly, waiting for his answer.

"First of all, repatriate all personnel who are only level 4 in strength, they are not suitable for combat. Personnel of level 5 strength are used as reserves, and their main task is to train, as a supplement to the army, and most of them are not needed in battle!" Biboff said, pausing and looking at Harry.

Looks like he's confident!Harry smiled and motioned for him to continue.

"For the remaining soldiers above level 6, divide them into a team of 100 people, a total of four teams. "If there are only 400 people, it is indeed much easier to compile.

"Of course, an army of four hundred men is not enough to compete with the power of the temple. Here we are going to talk about the tactics of this war. Biebco became interested at this time, and regardless of etiquette, he knocked over the water glass on the table, dipped his fingers in the water, and began to make comparisons on the table.

"There are three other large cities to the east of Tanta City in the north, and the situation there is similar to that of Tanta City, and I believe that if His Highness the Holy Son performs a miracle a little...... And they will look to the wind. All you have to pay attention to is the bishop who is placed there by the temple. I have seen the means by which His Highness the Holy Son took the city of Tanta...... I'm sure that's not a problem at all. ”

Hehe! Interesting people. Harry smiled slightly, noncommittal.

"It is expected that in a month at most, we will be able to occupy the northern ......"

"It's too slow! I'm going to be under the Holy Capital in three months, can you do it?" Harry interrupted Bibek. Be sure to complete the plan before Tang Ling is controlled by the God of Light!

"Three months?" Biebco was stunned, but he thought for a moment and nodded. "So you need to be a little more bold in terms of strategy, but it will probably take three or four months. ”

"Yes!" "Four months is barely acceptable. It is said that it takes half a year, four months, to infuse the holy light...... It should be in time.

"Then it will be hard for His Highness the Holy Son, and within half a month, he will defeat the head of the temple in the northern city with lightning speed, and our army will follow. As long as they are leaderless and cooperate with the miracles of His Highness the Holy Son, it is not a problem to subdue the convoy and the untouchables. As for the ranks of monks and priests, in the face of the difference in strength, they can't make any waves. "As soon as Biebke strokes with water, the north will be done.

"At this time, after the forces of the three major cities have been combined, our crusaders should have reached 1,500 regular personnel. I will select 1,000 strong and strong players as the main force. The remaining 500 people are auxiliary. With a thousand elite soldiers, it is enough to conquer the temple!" Biboff looked proud again.

"Oh!!?Give you a thousand elite soldiers, and you can lead them to the Holy Capital?" Harry asked in surprise. He believed that the other party had the ability, but with a thousand troops against the entire Holy Light Empire, this was incredible!

"Didn't Your Highness tell me that our mission is to cleanse the temple of evil forces, not to start a huge war that will sweep across the country?" Bibs said lightly: "In that case, a thousand elite soldiers are enough. ”

Harry looked at Bibsick suspiciously, and the other smiled lightly and continued to explain.

"After we subdued the North, the Temple should have received information about our uprising. But with the temple's reflexes, they wouldn't be able to react for a while. A thousand elite soldiers, I need to train them for half a month. That is, a month later, we will officially set out for the Holy Capital!"

"From the north to the Holy Capital, there are two large cities in between, and a fortress. It is not difficult to take the city of Tile Thorn and the city of Mongo, only the fortress of the motor is our main obstacle!" Bibek pointed to a large point of water. "After taking the Motor Fortress, the Holy Capital is in our pocket. ”

"According to my conservative estimate, it will be when we attack the fortress of Mada that the temple will really react and send a master to destroy us. As long as we win this crucial battle, the balance of victory will be tilted in our favor. Bibbo said confidently.

"Even if I believe in your ability to lead an army. But how do you deal with the master of the temple?" "Just because you win a war between ordinary soldiers doesn't mean you really win. Battles between masters are more important than regular battles.

"His Highness the Holy Son can rest assured of this. The group of death-scared cowards in the temple did not dare to step out of the Holy Capital to fight us. If they want to send, they must also send the 9th level holy knights and 9th level ascetics of the Inquisition and the former royal family. When the time comes, it will all be up to you, Your Highness the Holy Son. ”

"Me?" Harry was stunned.

"In fact, the masters of the Inquisition and the former royal family have long been unaccustomed to the temple, and it is only because the temple personnel are responsible for conveying the decrees of the gods that they have to obey their dispatch. Just convince them that God of Light is on our side...... Instead, they're going to be our ......," Biebke laughed weirdly.

Could it be that he saw something? Harry was shocked. The phrase 'Let them believe that the God of Light is on our side......' is really meaningful. But what am I worried about? Whatever his purpose is...... I just need to rescue Tang Ling...... Let's just use each other!

"Reasonable!" Harry laughed.

"As long as we attack the Holy Capital, leave everything to my lord and the God of Light to decide!" said Bibek.

I thought of the divine power of the God of Light that day...... Harry still has lingering palpitations. No matter what, you have to gamble on it! Even if it's a real god who stands in front of you!

However, it seems that this Bibs is not afraid of the God of Light appearing again to help the Pope...... As long as the true body of the God of Light appears, I am afraid that my fake Holy Son will also be able to do it...... Is he really sure?

"Your Highness, I would like to ask Your Highness to bless the crusaders of evil ten times in the future. This requirement...... Not too much, right?" Biebco looked at Harry deeply.

"If they have a meritorious crusade against evil, God will not be stingy with their gifts!" Harry cursed in his heart, this guy is too cunning! This increase is the strength of the Holy Light Empire! But that day Nefarian and himself also killed a lot of masters of the Holy Light Empire, so let's return it to them!

"Your Highness is still satisfied with me?" said Bibke, smiling slightly.

"From this day forward, you are the supreme commander of the Crusaders! You are solely responsible for all matters of conquest!" Harry gritted his teeth!
