Chapter 104: Target Argos
On the second day after Lei Zihao's army entered the city of Meghalá, the first regiment composed of 3,000 replenished Seris Revival Army and 500 Pylos prisoners of war drove out of Megara City!
followed by the main army led by Lei Zihao!
This time, Lei Zihao no longer had to hide it, because the city-state of Pyros had already received the information of the destruction of Corinth City, including the villages and towns around Corinth City, Lei Zihao's men and horses had slaughtered and enslaved more than 100,000 Pylos civilians!
It has completely formed a situation of incompatibility with the city-state of Pylos!
Naturally, the city-state of Pyros raised Lei Zihao to the highest vigilance!
On the second day after Lei Zihao's army left the city of Meghal, the Council of Elders of Pylos in Argos City received a report from a messenger who vomited blood......
With unprecedented efficiency, the city of Argos began to take in the civilians of the outer villages and towns of Pylos, and sent messengers to the main city of Pylos in the rear, begging Agamemnon to send his Praetorian Guard to help!
However, the city of Argos, which thought that reinforcements would arrive, unexpectedly received various excuses from Agamemnon for delay!
The Pyros elders of Argos City were very puzzled, this was not a simple civil war in the city-state of Pylos, but a battle for the survival of the entire Pyros nation, didn't Agamemnon understand the truth of the cold lips and teeth?!
What the Elders of Pyros of Argos didn't know was that Agamemnon was also suffering and couldn't speak!
Just as Lei Zihao's army was gradually approaching Argos City, Agamemnon, who was the leader of the city-state alliance of Pylos, was carefully accompanying a clergyman of the Church of the Radiant Lord!
The white full-body robe is embroidered with delicate angelic icons, and this set of clothes means that for the human world, it means that the power of the local lord is beyond that of the local lord!
Because only the High Priest of the Church of the Lord of Light is qualified to wear this outfit!
In the Church of the Radiant Lord, the Pope is the only dictator from above, and below it is divided into two departments, one is the clergy of the Church of the Radiant Lord, which controls the entire human world. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Among them, the highest is the cardinal archbishop, and only in the capital of the powerful human kingdom will you occasionally see a cardinal who has more power than the king!
Below the cardinal archbishop is the high priest who oversees the local lords' churches!
The High Priest is also the administrator of the Church of the Radiant Lord in controlling the clergy and collecting all kinds of taxes throughout the human world, and even selling indulgences!
Most of the cardinal archbishops serve the pope in the city of radiance, and a few monitor and suppress those kings in the powerful royal court, so those local high priests can be regarded as the emperor of the earth in the true sense!
The local noble lords are not like the powerful kings, they have more or less a group of knights who can barely protect themselves, even if the church wants to punish the kings, it needs to pay a certain price!
However, for those minor local noble lords, the church is the behemoth that dominates all, and the Church of the Lord of Radiance can easily crush the local minor noble lords as long as they send an ordinary team of inquisitors!
Naturally, those high priests wanted the wind in the land, and the sisters got the girls......
Even if it is the glamorous wife of a nobleman, as long as the sacrificial lord reveals such a lost interest, the lords and nobles who can kill the commoners at will on weekdays must obediently wash their wives cleanly, strip them naked and throw them on the bed of the sacrificial lord!
As for the local high priests, there are divine servants and church deacons, the divine servants are responsible for proselytizing and ruling the spiritual beliefs of the common people, and the deacons belong to the local force of the church that the high priest can use, and they are all armed combatants, who do some personal things for the high priest on weekdays, or arrest some unfortunate people who are not firm in their faith, set up a burner at the stake to play human flesh barbecue, or set up a gallows to watch the corpse swing......
The Church is more justified in killing people than the noble lords, because they have a good reason!
As long as you are put on the big hat of a traitor, you can wait for the bleeding to spend money to eliminate the disaster, or choose between the gallows and the burning!
Even the children of the nobility could not disobey this law!
Even those official knights and even big knights have to say hello respectfully when they see the divine servants and put on a friendly posture!
Except for a few Grand Knight Chiefs who do not belong to the Church, no one in the human world dares to disobey the oracle of the Lord of Light!
In addition to these clergy on the surface, the other set of the Pope's command is the shield and sword of the church!
The Holy Knights are the Pope's armed guarantee for the human world, and the larger number of the Inquisition is the mortal enemy of all heretics!
Compared to the well-known duties of the clergy of the Church, the internal structure of the Inquisition and the Holy Knights is much more mysterious, because they rarely make a move, and when they do, they don't leave anything alive!
Even the kingdom of Attia, the most powerful kingdom in the human world, doesn't know how many inquisitors the Pope has and how big the Holy Knights are!
This is also the reason why the savage and murderous Hungarians did not dare to disobey the orders of the Church!
Interestingly, the most powerful kingdom of Attia in the human world is located on the eastern border of the human world, firmly blocking the path of the orc legions in the Slavic region to the south, and watching the path of the Night Elf Empire to the west!
The fact that the kingdom of Attiyah was so powerful had a lot to do with the church's deliberate indulgence in treating them as watchdogs of the human world!
And the other watchdog of the church is the Teutonic Knights!
The Kingdom of Attia and the Teutonic Knights clamped down on the path of aggression of the Orc Legions in the Slavic region from both sides!
Except for these two watchdogs with strong centripetal force, the human world inside is a plate of scattered sand......
There has always been a rumor in the upper echelons of the human world that the League of Assassins, which terrifies nobles everywhere, is a transcontinental dark industry secretly controlled by the Pope!
The gray death trench coat is the logo of the League of Assassins, and it is also a reaper from hell!
It can be said that the human world is scattered on the surface, but in fact, the Pope's power in the human world is not much worse than that of the real emperor!
It is impossible for Agamemnon, who is in the Greek peninsula, not to know the horror of the Church of the Lord of Light, even if the people of Pylos have never believed in the Lord of Light, but when the high priest of the church in white robes came to the city of Pylos with a small group of Inquisition soldiers, Agamemnon had to give up the best room and obey him like a slave!
And the reason why Agamemnon did not come to the aid of Argos was the order of this white-robed priest!
The Church wants to use the lives of the Pylos to consume the strength of the target's army and delay as much time as possible for the subsequent landing of the Crusaders!
