Chapter 55: The Crusades

The moment he caught Princess Boyue, Nishizawa realized that something was wrong, how could the adopted daughter of the dignified general only have some Boyue miscellaneous soldiers to protect, it turned out that he didn't know that Princess Boyue had escaped by herself.

But now he already knows, the first thing he thinks of is to use her to do something for himself, the reason for her escape is already very clear, taking advantage of the fact that the republic is busy with the battle between the west and the west, and taking the opportunity to establish his own power in the east of the empire, she was originally the princess of Boyue, and the republic has no intention of killing her,

Although the general's strength is one aspect, the general himself is also for the purpose of better ruling the Boyue region, and there is nothing better than having the only [king] prince of Boyue in his hands.

It would be better if you could give birth to a prince with a Goliath and then inherit the throne, the royal family of the republic has always been married to the royal family of Rome and Boyue and other tribes, just to add a false veil of blood to the forced military ties.

Thinking about the usefulness of Princess Boyue's existence, Nishizawa began to think about what she could do for herself. The first is to win the recognition of the Boyue people, which has considerable benefits for his political status.

It was also the reason why he rushed to the news as soon as he sent the news through his own people in the army. At the same time, he also had to feel helpless for the incompetence of the republic, such a descendant of the royal family who was adopted by the republic, but was not cultivated by the republicto be the best puppet.

On the one hand, he recognized Astria's independent will and loyalty to the nation, and on the other hand, he felt a little troubled by a person who did not listen to the republic, and in his heart the whole country would be his in the future, and naturally if there was a person who could have great influence and influence people to oppose him, it would be something he would never tolerate.

Therefore, Asteria can only be used and not really ally with it, because allies will only turn their faces when there is a conflict of interest, but people like this, who have an end goal in conflict with him from the beginning, must not become allies.

Cizesawu is still very uneasy about Asteria, the princess of the moon, a woman who can still maintain her independent will under the condition of so many years of education in the republic, especially a woman, is very dangerous, must be the kind of self-centered, and unscrupulous people who do not achieve the goal, although Citzer Uza himself is such a person, but this does not mean that he will like people like himself.

What he has to do now is to make good use of such an opportunity to fight for a higher political status and opportunity for himself, as long as he is given the opportunity, he can definitely go to the top of the whole world, sometimes the opportunity is actively fought for by himself, and sometimes he waits for it.

He began to feel the Heavenly Supreme, the "omnipotent Lord of the scriptures" whom he had thrown into the deep trenches. Perhaps, the goddess of luck has begun to bless him, and the invasion of the crusaders is really a good opportunity to show his skills.

As long as you go to battle, you can get military merit, and military merit is absolute political capital, which can be used to pave the way for your own plans in the future.

He had a genius for command and command, but in order to gain the support of the army, he could only make a declaration of a break with the parliament, and even never had the opportunity to fight for the battle, the crusaders were like the gospel that God had given him.

The scripture says, "The conqueror is a saint, but the founder of the kingdom is king."

According to Goliath tradition, as long as you occupy a certain place, you can be crowned king in the occupied land, and become a more independent "territorial monarch", i.e., lord, than the provincial governor.

The lord could be exempt from the direct jurisdiction of the laws of the republic within his own domain, and had military, economic, and political power.

And there is no reason for the council to stop him.

It is the duty of the people of the republic to kill the infidels, and no one may prevent the followers of the Holy Religion from killing the infidels for any reason, otherwise it will be regarded as an apostasy and a violation of the word of the Lord, in the Goliath Holy Religion has declined, but the word of the traitor Lord is still not allowed, and the piety of the Goliaths may not be enough, but the adherence to the scriptures is like the Olympiad that the Greeks have held for thousands of years.

He can take advantage of this and make political capital for himself under the guise of religion, and in such an idea, he is quick to whip up, because those who are faltering will not be able to seize the opportunity.

Most people in the republic have only a general opinion about the Crusaders:

The Crusaders were religious expeditions of a religious nature composed of Catholic Western European countries, with uneven and chaotic members, including knights from European countries, peasants, fanatics who really came for their faith, and fantasists who wanted to conquer their dreams, establish their own kingdoms, and obtain wealth and beauty by virtue of their achievements.

The Crusaders were a group of people with dangerous ideas: living can never experience the true meaning of life, the idea of eternal life that can only be achieved by returning to the bosom of the Father, urging groups of fanatics to go to the Holy Land, Pope Urban II's speech admonishing all Catholics to fight for the Lord, and wealth lies in the East.

But the crusaders were not as easy to deal with as the Republic had expected, and the war lasted for several years.

The Crusader War had happened, and he had not been able to return to China due to his exile period before, so he had been in the desert Gobi to adapt himself to the next test, and he had been doing hard training, and his toned body was not obtained by flirting with female warrior instructors in the academy.

Nishizawa also saw this speech from the books printed in the Republic, and in addition to thinking that the Pope was a god, he also felt a desire to conquer, and since they could wage a holy war, why should I not also come and conquer the whole of Europa again, so that I could not gain great prestige and political status.

The countries of Europa began to break away from the control of the republic in the 50th year of the republican calendar, and by the year 170 of the republican calendar they had become independent from seven states, known as the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms", followed by rebellions by the pure-blood Romans (excluding all the Romans who had assimilated into the Gallic Romans) and Boyue.

The republic was mired in civil wars and various upheavals, unable to regain its lost territory, so it could only maintain its rule in the region and peninsula of Poyue and Asia Minor, and later, as the republic regained its strength (during the imperial period under Surabi), it conquered the Second Roman Empire, the Constantine Empire, and was called the Eastern Roman kingdom by the Greeks.

Subsequently, he conquered the Seven Kingdoms and established the system of vassal states.

The Republic then began to look down on the countries of Europa again, but in the time of Sura Abi, due to the destruction of the empire's internal army due to the fierce civil war between the Empire and the republicans, the Imperial troops stationed in Europa had to return to the heart of the Republic to support, resulting in Europa's independence again.

More than a decade after the end of the Civil War, the Republic has always wanted to reconquer Europa.

Unexpectedly, the countries of Europa attacked first, their 500,000 allied troops landed in Egypt, and Egypt was the protectorate of the republic, and all the foreign debts of Egypt were in the hands of the republic, and now the crusaders fought Egypt, which shocked the republic, and now the republic is in a huge debate, whether to take the opportunity to annex Egypt, or to conquer the entire Europa region, including the Black Forest.

The Egyptian envoy ordered the Republican Assembly to make a decision to destroy the crusaders first, and Goliath's excellent mobilization system was brought into play, and the whole republic mobilized an army of about one million, and then 200,000 men were drawn from it to Egypt under the leadership of several generals.

The crusaders did not know the strength of the Goliaths, and suffered a great loss as soon as they fought, and were annihilated after being surrounded by 100,000 men. The Crusaders were filled with feelings of grief and despair, and the Goliaths fought frantically and dared to charge with infantry in front of the cavalry, and although the officer who charged the cavalry with infantry was subsequently brought to court-martial, the Goliath Republican Army's superior fighting power and extremely tenacious will to fight, as well as its brutal character, brought great deterrent power to the Crusaders.

The Crusaders then discovered that their weapons were far behind the Republic, and their swords could not cut through the warrior armor of the Republic's [soldiers], while the Republic's Goliath Goliath Knife could easily split the Crusader knights in two.

Goliath's cavalry also accounted for a quarter of the total strength, which was an incomparable advantage of the Crusaders, and the discipline of the Goliath army was far superior to that of the chaotic Crusaders, although the raids were very rampant due to the indulgence of the commanders, but when fighting, the Goliath warriors were extremely disciplined, which was in stark contrast to the Crusaders' knights who charged without orders, and the Crusaders were completely wiped out within a few months, and the remaining 145,000 soldiers of the Republic pursued all the way along the Strait of Gibraltar.

After resting for a few hours at the supply point, the boy took Asteria back on the road ahead.

The sun was high and the air around her was unbearably hot, thanks to the years of training and the tenacity of the Goliaths, Nishizawa didn't feel anything, but the pampered Asteria couldn't hold on, and although she received rigorous training in the women's college, she couldn't support the long journey through the wilderness Gobi where the heat reached nearly 40 degrees.

As a last resort, Nishizawa had to spend a day making a carriage.

"This man still has a bit of a taste. Looking at the carriage in front of her, Asteria thought that it was only then that she noticed that Nishizawa was a very handsome and beautiful man, but she never had much affection for the Goliaths, and although she had always lived here, she would never forget that scene. Astyria's hands were clenched tightly, and their palms were punctured.

Nishizawa had been secretly observing the other party, and apparently noticed it, and a thought immediately flashed through his heart.

"Hatred sometimes confuses the wise. Cizer Uren stood up and said to Asteria, and as he said that, he carried her into the carriage, and he tied his Goliath horse to the carriage.

He leaped up, reclined on his legs, and with a whistle the horse let out a loud whistling sound, and then began to run.

Sitting on a soft blanket woven by an unknown plant, Asteria could not help but be amazed by Nishizawa U's carefulness and thoughts, she had been worried that the horse-drawn cart would be very bumpy, especially on this Gobi, but it seemed that she had thought too much.

She thought of the young man's words just now, and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you talking to me about this?"

The young man, who was thinking about the future, heard Asteria ask him, and replied, "I just want you not to drag me down." As soon as the boy's voice finished speaking, there was a loud shout, and it turned out that Asteria had given him a kick and almost kicked him out.

"If you want to implement your ideas, be sensible and don't underestimate your opponent's strength because of contempt and hostility, which will only lead to defeat. The boy looked ahead and said, his eyes beside the bridge of his nose full of aggression, sharp as an eagle, and at the same time full of this kind of weakness, the two temperaments mixed together, mainly because his eyelashes were a little too long.

Hearing these words, Astria's eyelashes trembled slightly, she looked at the powerful back of the young man in front of her, her eyes were confused, as if she thought of the secure shoulders of her father and stepfather, she shook her head, and then said, "You know what I'm going to do, why don't you kill me." ”

"Why did I kill you, you are still a little tender, I am the gravedigger of this country, the number one enemy of the parliament, Nishizawa U. ”

"I'm sorry, I forgot that you are a thief. ”

Asteria's voice suddenly became a little gentle, and the ethereal coldness in her eyes began to take on a little color.

"Maybe you'll really become the gravedigger of this country, and maybe the Boyue people will help you. She thought to herself.

But Nishizawa Ushi thinks about the moment of achievement, as well as ······
