Chapter 43: The Sacred Flame of Melgah
Harris, who was in White Ross, was naturally unable to see what was happening in the conference room of the Morlinsk Army Headquarters, and all he heard was an earthquake-like tremor on the other end of the phone, followed by the sound of objects breaking and an unknown sound of rattling.
In addition to these ambient sounds, several officers who were still arguing were silent.
So Harris hurriedly picked up the telephone microphone and put it to his mouth, and kept asking loudly:
"What's going on? What's going on over there, answer me?"
At this time, several guards rushed over when they heard the sound, but they were also stunned when they saw that except for the floor under the round table, which was still intact, the rest of the conference rooms had turned into an open space, especially the twenty-three generals who were still sitting in their respective chairs unharmed.
They all looked at the blonde girl who held the source of the fire in her hands, their expressions of disbelief and dumbfounded.
The guards who were the first to break in were deeply attracted by the heroic appearance of this holy flame, and muttered to themselves dementedly:
"God...... Miracles ......"
Tiffany said lightly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you need to continue to unleash and expand this power? This is the Holy Flame bestowed by the Archangel Millaga, its scope and power are far beyond this, if you allow, I can make it envelop the whole of Morlinsk!"
Hearing this, Rebaman hurriedly said:
"No need, no need, please put away the divine power!"
Tiffany held the white flame in her right hand, and the white flame that swept around her dissipated.
"What a great power! It is a gift from God!"
Jane Uzi, the commander of the Sixth Armored Division of the Imperial Army, also sighed, took off his hat to Tiffany, crossed his chest, and continued to ask Tiffany:
"How many other saints in the Crusaders are like the Holy Maiden, who can unleash the magic of the Holy Heavens?"
Tiffany nodded to him and replied:
Although this should not be a matter for the army, it is true to say that most of the people blessed by God are people in the papal templar tower, including Antonio, the godfather of the upper and lower officials, about a dozen people.
The Holy Bath of the newly created crusaders did not choose anyone with magical abilities. However, there are countless people who have been blessed by the Seven Archangels, and their magic value is enough to easily use the Gathering Magic-style magic guide weapon, and the combined efforts of many people are also enough to exert the power that is given by the archangel like the following officials.
Among them, the more powerful magic guide wide-area flame gathering cannon can draw out the power of hundreds of people, and the power of one cannon can burn thousands of miles, and the divine power attached to the holy flame cannot be spared even if it is a steel stone wall. ”
Jane Uzi's face was overjoyed when she heard this, and she immediately said:
"In that case, I believe in the power of God, and our Sixth Panzer Division is willing to assist the army of God and obey the command of the Holy Maiden!. ”
The commander of the 2nd Armored Division, Morey Niris, and the commander of the 5th Armored Division, Anjur, also immediately expressed their support for the resolution to assist the Tiffany Knights in a frontal breakthrough.
The rest of the division commanders and army commanders also looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and finally locked their eyes on their commander-in-chief, Admiral Morgan.
Morgan Solder saw that the commanders of three of the six main armored divisions of the main force of the army had crossed over to ask for instructions and directly agreed to Tiffany's plan, his face was a little unbearable, but he couldn't say anything.
He also understood that these three men were really inspired by the power of miracles, heeded the call of faith, and hurried to move closer to God and show their loyalty to the church.
But even though he knew that the so-called Holy Bath election for the purpose of forming the Crusaders was actually just a trick of the Church to fool the world, he couldn't help but be amazed by the manifestation of the supernatural magical ability that really happened in front of him, and regarded the brilliance of the swaying white flame as a miracle!
Rebaman's admiralty also looked at Tiffany with a look of eagerness.
If it weren't for Rebaman's unangry and self-righteous aura pressing there, and Lieutenant Colonel Crowley saying that all she needed was the armored division, they would have stood up one by one and rushed to rush up.
At this time, a thought drifted through Rebalman's mind: If the Crusaders were God's chosen army, where would his own imperial army, which had boasted of having been a god for centuries, be placed, and who would be the regular? In this case, it is no wonder that everyone hastened to convert to the Church, does this reveal that the clerical power that has been obscure for centuries will inevitably overpower the imperial power in the future?
Originally, compared to his personal ability and talent, everyone believed that the young lieutenant colonel relied on Antonio's love and church connections to enter the upper echelons of the army.
Everyone wanted to see Tiffany make a fool of herself, so they could pout and say casually with a look of contempt and inconsequential gesture:
Sure enough, she was just a relational who walked through the back door of the Templar church, a good-for-nothing child. ”
It is far easier to say this kind of thing than to accept a gifted person who is favored by God and is many times younger than them.
But now that they saw the miracle with their own eyes, they all put away their previous emotions one by one, for fear of offending the God's messenger, and began to pray and repentance in their hearts for their previous attitude and disdain for Tiffany.
Harris was still in a state of confusion and didn't know what was going on, and he thought that the army headquarters had been attacked.
It wasn't until Tiffany put away the flame that his shout reached everyone's ears.
So Morgan turned into the phone and explained the situation at the scene one by one......
Harris was overjoyed when he heard the news, and he said yes, and his voice spread through the clearing:
"Wonderful! Wonderful. I never thought that the Holy Church would have such a skill! With the help of the power of God, our army could no longer be carefree.
Morgan, let's just deploy it as Lieutenant Colonel Crowley wants!
In my capacity as Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Army, I granted Lieutenant Colonel Crowley the highest independent command authority in wartime, except for the Commander-in-Chief and Commander-in-Chief, and for his outstanding ability, I promoted Apocalypse Tiffany Crowley to Colonel.
and confer the Silver Cross, and the power of attorney and my warrant will be delivered to you soon...... Okay, that's it for today, you can continue to discuss the deployment and the plan, and let me know at a later date...... Toot Toot Toot ......"
After saying that, Harris hung up the phone, and was alone in the headquarters office of Bai Er Ross, the front-line military aircraft was landed, and he was quite happy in his heart, and stroked the pale Chinese character beard on his chin with his right hand, and then lit a cigar.
Taking a deep breath, he slowly stood up and looked at the world map behind him, his eyes gradually became fanatical, he knew that the Pope and his ambition would become achievable with the combination of the Crusaders and the Army, and now he learned for the first time the true power of the Holy Maiden secretly cultivated by the rumored Church, which made him feel that as long as he controlled this sword, the whole world would be at his fingertips.
With that in mind, the cigar swirled and flew between his broad fingers, and the smoke turned into a shredded circle......
All the officers were a little shocked when they heard this, this kind of authority is second only to Morgan, the commander-in-chief of the northern sector of the Mozik front, and even Rebaman is inferior to him, but everyone can accept it this time compared to the previous one, because they have deeply remembered what the word "saint" means and why it is crowned.
So Colonel Tiffany inquired about the main conditions of the battle line and solved some practical problems, and then she discussed and exchanged views with them on the specific suitability of the battle, and finally established the basic direction of the attack.
The meeting continued at a round table in the open space, and lasted in the cold wind until midnight, when the electric lights could not dispel the deepening darkness around them......
After signaling to Tiffany's head, Rebalman left with his subordinates in the right column in order, regardless of the army or navy, this time when everyone walked to the end of the left column, they either saluted or prayed, and Tiffany responded simply one by one.
Eventually, only Morgan Solder and Tiffany were left in the clearing.
Tiffany also turned to leave, but was stopped by Morgan Hold.
"Wait a minute!
Tiffany paused, but did not look back, and said:
"When is the general?"
"As your seniors and superiors in the same school, I can't bear to let you be taken advantage of, and you are getting deeper and deeper into the wrong path, there are some things I must remind you of......"
"I want to hear about it. ”
"I have read your graduation thesis once, and I also have my own opinions on military affairs...... But...... I see in your essay that you are too aggressive, I don't know what influenced this style, I don't know if you came to this day at the age of fifteen by your own will, and although your abilities are outstanding, I don't know if that magical power is from God......
But I need to warn you that it's best not to get too entangled in the Church, for the Templar has already gone bad since it began to take over the military academy and form the army. I know that the Church is nowhere near as holy and pure as it seems, so you'd better give yourself some leeway, or you'll end up being hurt by the value of your genius......
Also, don't underestimate the power of the army, and don't underestimate your opponent......s too much!
Speaking of this, Morgan paused, hesitated, and continued:
"But the Celestial Empire is a very strange country, and although it is extremely secretive to the outside world, I have consulted the documents of sixty years ago, I have studied the true accounts of the battles of the Celestial Empire, and I have visited some surviving veterans. I know that the Celestial Empire is by no means the barbarian race that the Pope claims to be like to the outside world, they have their own splendid culture, which is completely different from ours, but has a unique charm.
Also, every time I asked the old man how the empire was defeated back then, everyone kept silent. I'm guessing, I'm afraid...... I'm afraid that the empire was not a tie with the Celestial Empire, as it said to the world, but a fiasco!
And I know that their technology is extremely backward, so there is only one possibility, and their country may ...... Maybe more proficient in magic than the Imperials!"
Morgan hesitated and hesitated when he said this, but when it came to the end, he was still very firm and finished speaking.
Tiffany had a look of surprise on her face for the first time when she heard this, she didn't expect that an imperial general who was only about fifty years old would be able to guess and study the real situation that the imperial and pope's high-level officials deliberately concealed back then, but she still hadn't turned around.
"Finally, I have to say that you are too arrogant and unruly to your superiors! Here, after all, it is the army!"
Hearing this, Tiffany nodded silently and said:
"Thank you, General...... Humble duty and remember ......"
After saying that, he left the open space, opened the separate door that was still embedded in the wall, and walked around the corridor to leave......
