Ten days later, you have gathered a lot of troops outside the walls of the kingdom of Astra.

The army of the Astra Kingdom is not counted, there are a total of five kingdoms that came to the Astra Kingdom to assemble this time, in addition to the Czkma Kingdom and the White Rose Kingdom, the Kingdom of Riborn and the Kingdom of Lillard are also here, and the Kingdom of Dibean also came here, and even the Duke of Bunkerson came here in response to the Holy War.

In addition, some warlords in the eyes of the nobles who did not receive the title of knighthood also responded to the church's call for holy war and came to the kingdom of Astra.

Marquis Croton of the Iron Forest Legion led his elite Iron Forest Legion of 6,000 people to the Kingdom of Astra.

In addition to these 6,000 elite Iron Forest Legions, he also has 2,000 crossbowmen under him as a long-range strike force, which is very strong.

When he announced the occupation of a territory, it was used to encircle and suppress the surrounding kingdoms, after all, a mercenary illegally occupied a territory, which was intolerable to all nobles.

They assembled an alliance of more than 10,000 men to fight and destroy the Marquis of Clotton, but were defeated by the Iron Legion that he had already formed at that time.

After that, he worked hard to develop his military power, and in the end, he also made himself a knighthood, proclaiming himself the honorable Marquis of Clodon.

Of course, the title of Marquis does not exist on the main road, and only some old nobles who have made great contributions will be canonized as marquis by the king after his death.

The title of Marquis comes from the ancient Dels Empire, and is generally used to canonize meritorious generals or regional governors, because the Dels Empire is not a feudal system, so the marquis title is only a title that represents a noble status.

However, after all, he was not a feudal man, and he was not legally canonized by the church, and his possession of the territory was not recognized by most nobles, so he could only call himself a marquis.

Such warlords are not uncommon, most of them appear in the chaotic area of thousands of kilometers in the middle of the continent, but generally they can call themselves a baron, even if they are in the middle of the continent, there are only five or six people.

And in addition to him, there is another warlord who has also come to the kingdom of Astra to assemble, she is the Marquis of Apollon, who leads the Blackstone Army!

The Marquis of Apollon is not very old, only twenty-five years old this year, but at this age, she is known for her ruthlessness and extraordinary skills.

At the beginning, his father, the Marquis of Apollon, single-handedly established the Blackstone Army in the midst of the warlord chaos in the middle of the continent, and gradually carried it forward.

But in the midst of a war, he died at the hands of his companions, who had followed him for twenty years, and his brother of life and death shot a crossbow at him.

At close range, no armor could stop the crossbow, and just like that, the Marquis of Apollon died at the hands of his deputy.

The rest of the matter was easy to guess, and his lieutenant brought the entire Blackstone Army of more than 7,000 people under his rule.

And the only daughter of the Marquis of Apollon finally accumulated enough strength to annihilate the deputy in one fell swoop and regain the position that should have belonged to her.

And because her eyes were blinded by hatred, she honed her martial arts all day long, learned intrigue, and understood the effect of ruthlessness on her.

In the end, she finally became a ruthless woman, and was even called a ruthless female scorpion!

And after she regained her position, she also fought several wars with the Iron Forest Legion, in which she took the lead and fought on the battlefield herself.

She even set a terrifying record of killing twelve knights of the Iron Forest Legion in a row.

Since then, her ruthlessness and force have spread among these warlords, and her beauty has also been sung by those pervert warlords.

The Blackstone Army is also different from the Iron Forest Legion, although the Grand Master of the Iron Forest Legion, Marquis Clotton, was born as a mercenary, but he was also a noble eldest son in his early years, and his experience was similar to that of Norwen, and he was finally reduced to a mercenary.

In the end, he gradually broke out of a world in the middle of the continent and established the Iron Forest Legion, which was actually more complete than most of the aristocratic armies in addition to the name, knights, resistance infantry, heavy infantry, and long-range troops.

The Blackstone Army is different, the father of the Marquis of Apollon is just a bandit, what insight can he have, although the development of the army is very strong, but the establishment is still almost the same as the bandits.

Except for a rough allocation, most of them were a rabble, armed with spears or bows and arrows, swords, and crossbows, and these weapons were innumerable.

However, their equipment far surpassed those of the bandits, and even slightly better than the well-armed, iron-clad Iron Forest Legion.

Because the equipment patterns on both sides are different, the Iron Forest Legion wants Marquis Cloton to pay for the armament himself, which is a full 6,000 people, he doesn't want William to be wealthy, with a huge territory, rich food and agricultural taxes, rich commercial taxes, and his own profiteering industry.

He could only equip the most elite of a thousand of them with double iron armor, a layer of leather armor inside, including officers, and even then, he could not afford to supply them, and he had to be hired from time to time to survive.

The Blackstone Army has no such concerns, the Blackstone Army's equipment is all self-contained, and in order not to die on the battlefield and to capture more loot, they often equip themselves with well-equipped equipment.

So their equipment is even stronger than that of the Iron Forest.

And their individual combat is also very strong, the bandits and bandits in the middle of the continent, the most elite of these people can enter the Blackstone Army, so their individual combat effectiveness is not even weaker than that of the Iron Forest Legion.

However, their discipline is worrying, and it is difficult for them to maintain their formation, which is also the reason why they have strong individual combat effectiveness, but they cannot suppress the Iron Forest Legion on the battlefield.

More than 9,000 members of the Blackstone Army appeared outside the city of Kajawen in such a chaotic manner, and their arrival even disturbed the order in the military camp outside.

In this way, all the troops and forces that were going to reach the capital of the Astra Kingdom, Kadgavin, were all gathered, counting the 9,000 troops of the Astra Kingdom, plus 4,000 Grail Guardians, and 2,000 Astra Grail Knights, for a total of 110,000 people.

Among them, there were 8,500 knights alone, which was a terrifying number, and if there was such a large army in the civil war in the Holy Cult world, if the Church did not intervene, no country would be able to resist.

Even the Kingdom of Astra itself is not good, if the Rhodelan Empire goes all out, plus the battle goes well, there may be a glimmer of hope.

For a time, there were many flags outside the city of Kajiawen, swords and guns, and all kinds of heraldic smocks were also dazzling, only William's army was an exception, and the unified iron cross coat of arms on a white background was very neat and uniform.
