At the order of the colonel, all the soldiers pulled the trigger, and a string of sparks came from the machine guns on the armored car.

Dada!

Countless bullets poured out and flew towards the thousands of believers with sincere expressions below. And these believers have not opened their eyes until now, and their unwavering faith in their hearts makes them believe that God will bless them.

But God has never blessed anyone, not even the most sincere of believers.

Woohoo blah blah!

The bullets landed in the square, and immediately splashed with blood-red waves. Blood splattered, and stumps and flesh covered the square, and the whole square was dyed red at this moment.

The bullets tore through the bodies of one sincere believer after another, sending them one by one into what they called Anning Township.

Dada!

The barrage of bullets continued for nearly a minute before stopping, and by this time, the group of worshippers who had been praying sincerely had disappeared from the square, and were replaced by a pool of meat.

A large amount of blood gathered together and then flowed out of the square. Some of the corpses with their heads still intact could be seen from their expressions, and their horror before they died, and it was obvious that they did not want to enter the peaceful country in their mouths.

In the words of the bishop in the past, most of these thousands of believers willingly entered the peace of God, enjoying eternal peace, joy and happiness. And those with frightened expressions are because their faith is not strong enough, they have rebelled against the gods in their hearts, so they can't enter the peaceful country to be so frightened.

The soldiers looked down with expressionless and indifference, the corpses of the believers they had just slaughtered. Everyone's expressions did not change at all, even their breathing and heartbeat did not fluctuate much, and it seemed that it was not a human being that was killed just now, but a group of pigs, cows, and sheep.

This is their determination, the moment they step into the portal, all the Eastern Xia soldiers have completely abandoned their humanity and morality. Their Third Legion was now a sharp knife in the hands of Great Xia, slaughtering all the butcher knives that stood in front of Great Xia.

"Ahh This...... This, you guys! You guys! Just now, the bishop, who was still calm and calm, looked at the scene in front of him with a look of disbelief.

He never imagined that this group of troops dressed in strange clothes would not hesitate to slaughter these 3,000 helpless believers. Aren't they afraid that this kind of behavior will be exposed and leave a bad impression on the minds of the people? Don't they want to comrade this canal city? This is the transportation hub of the Grand Canal! Do they eat demons?!

Countless questions intertwined in the bishop's mind.

The 3,000 believers who were praying just now died in just a few minutes! It's all turned into a puddle of minced meat, and the scene is really shocking.

At this moment, a breeze blew, and the strong smell of blood began to spread, and the bishop finally came back to his senses after smelling the pungent smell of blood.

"You demons! You demons with no humanity! That's 3,000 lives, but they're all God's most faithful believers, how dare you! How dare you! The bishop pointed at the Dongxia soldiers around him and scolded.

Click......

The colonel, dressed in black uniform, was escorted by five soldiers and walked from a distance. The black boots were stamped on the square covered in corpses and blood, and their boots were already stained with blood.

Looking at the people who died because of his order, the colonel's face did not change in the slightest. He didn't even look at the corpse on the ground, his eyes looked ahead, and his expression was full of indifference.

The bishop looked at the Dongxia Emperor who was walking towards him, pointed with his right hand at the demon who had just ordered to kill 3,000 powerless civilians, and said, "It's all because of you, they all died because of your orders!" ”

The colonel paid no heed to the bishop's invective, nor did he bother to justify his order.

The order was given by him, and all died because of him.

The colonel raised the stun gun in his hand, aimed it at the bishop's abdomen, and pulled the trigger.

Shout!

The bullet from the stun gun was fired into the bishop's abdomen, and the strong electrical current instantly paralyzed his body, and he subsequently lost consciousness.

"Take it away," the colonel commanded, putting away his stun gun.

"Yes!"

A soldier stepped forward and carried the bishop directly on his shoulder, and then walked out of the square.

The soldiers then conducted a carpet search of the entire church, and all the clergy in the church were arrested. Of course, there are also some fanatics, who swear to defend the faith of God, and these people are all sent by the soldiers to meet their so-called gods.

At the same time, the other four cities were also killed by the Third Legion, and all the armed forces in the city were completely cleansed, regardless of whether these armed forces surrendered or begged for mercy, the Eastern Xia soldiers would still kill them.

No matter who you are, as long as you dare to resist and kill. The Dongxia soldiers would not care how many people resisted, whether they were innocent or not, as long as they dared to stand up and resist, hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands, the Third Army would still slaughter them all.

…………

Kizawa Castle, one of the five major cities in the Grand Canal Plain. With a population of over 2 million people, the city was the most populous city in the empire outside of the imperial capital. At the same time, the city is very popular, with 90% of its residents being members of the Church of Tranquility.

As the empire grew darker and darker over the years, the lives of the people became more and more difficult. In order to escape the darkness and oppression of society, the people have adopted the Church of Peace as their faith.

The people frantically believe in the Church of Tranquility and numb themselves with the teachings of the Church of Tranquility. They believe that their current suffering is only temporary, and that if their faith in God is strong enough, they will be able to enter the land of peace after death. There is no hunger, no oppression, no nobility, and they can enjoy eternal happiness and peace.

This situation has become more and more prevalent in the empire in recent years, and Kisawa Castle is the most serious. It is home to the largest church in the Empire, and half of the city is the land of the Church of Tranquility.

Kisawa City has more believers than the headquarters of the Anning Church, with 500,000 fanatical believers and nearly 1 million deep believers. Their belief in God was stronger than anyone else's, to the point of madness.

In recent years, human sacrifices have even been introduced, which is a serious violation of the canons set by the head of the Church of Tranquility. The headquarters of the Anning Church has repeatedly warned the Church of Kisawa City to stop this bloody and ignorant activity.

However, instead of listening to the words of the leader of the Anning Church, Mu Zecheng intensified his efforts and even began to tamper with the doctrine.

The most exaggerated is that the bishop of the Tranquility Church in Kisawa City touted himself as the embodiment of God.

And it was precisely because of this situation that Mu Zecheng, with these 2 million believers who were not afraid of death, actually supported in front of the Third Army for half an hour.

"This is jihad! Now is the time to test your faith, and all of you use your own to banish these monsters! A priest with a Bible in his hand encouraged the armed Christians around him.

"Don't be afraid of death, we have God's protection, even if we fall here now, we will only lose, we will enter the land of tranquility after death, and enjoy eternal happiness and tranquility!"

The expressions of the believers around him became more and more fanatical, and their mouths silently recited the prayer scriptures.

Boom Boom Boom!

The next moment, a huge explosion sounded, and the already dilapidated city wall in front of them finally collapsed. Flames and dust intertwined, and waves of heat caressed everyone's faces.

A strong smell of gunpowder smoke mingled with the fishy smell of blood.

The flames disappeared and the dust slowly dissipated. Everyone saw a neat row of steel monsters, slowly approaching them.

Seeing these steel monsters, the believers did not have the slightest fear, but instead raised the weapons in their hands and launched a charge.

"Rush!"

"Ahhh Kill those heretics! ”

"This is jihad! Now is the time to prove our faith! ”

"Rush, kill these heretics!" A warrior in armor, running high at the front of the line, raised his silver-white sword and shouted.

With the roar of the armored warrior, the surrounding believers responded to his words one after another, and also let out an earth-shattering battle cry!

"Ahh Kill! ”

"Kill!"

Everyone's expressions were extremely fanatical, and their eyes were extremely determined to look at the steel monster in front of them. A surge of blood surged into their hearts, and the momentum of the entire cultist army suddenly climbed to the peak.

"Roar!"

The charge of more than 100,000 people was extremely powerful, and at this moment, even the usual extremely fierce and dangerous species would be shocked by this momentum.

In the face of the charge of more than 100,000 people, the expressions of all the soldiers of the Third Legion did not change at all, and everyone silently adjusted their state.

Compared to the Cultist Legion on the other side, the Third Legion was very quiet, so quiet that it made people feel creepy.

"Ready."

The long barrel of the Snapdragon main battle tank in the front row was slightly raised and aimed at the front, and the armored car also adjusted the muzzle of the machine gun.

Thousands of infantry gathered around the main battle tanks, raising their rifles and light machine guns.

In the artillery positions in the rear, the artillerymen put shells into the self-propelled guns one by one, and then adjusted the barrels to be ready to fire at any time.

"Fire!"

Bang bang!

The self-propelled gun and the barrel of the Snapdragon main battle tank in front of it emitted yellow flames at the same time, and various shells flew out of the chamber and flew to the front, charging at the hundreds of thousands of believers.

Da Da

The machine guns on the armored vehicles and the guns in the hands of the soldiers also burst into flames, and tens of thousands of bullets pierced through the chambers.

Woohoo blah blah!

A huge network of fire was formed, and it flew towards the believers rushing forward at an extremely fast speed.

The knight who was running at the front roared again and "...... charge"

However, as soon as he finished the first word, the next moment a cannonball hit him, and then his body exploded like tofu.

Shout!

Then the shells hit the believers behind again, one, two, three...... The cannonball was plunged into the hundreds of thousands of legions like a sharp sword, rolling up bursts of blood and stumps and severed arms.

Before the disciples could scream, black shadows fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed, and then the falling unknown object emitted a strong fire.

Boom Boom Boom!

Deafening explosions rang out, one after another, and the flames began to rise. The flames from the explosion instantly swept through the entire battlefield, killing nearly 30,000 people in an instant.

Countless dust was swept up by the explosion, and one after another strong shock waves lifted the believers who were not swallowed by the explosion, and the organs in their bodies were shattered by the shock wave.

The believers opened their mouths wide to utter their dying cries, but in front of the equal coverage of all beings. They are not even qualified to utter the last screams before they die, and they don't even know when they died.

However, the attack was not over, and a network of tens of thousands of bullets followed, killing some lucky ones who survived.

The first round of fire coverage was over, and the vast battlefield was covered by the fire of the Third Corps, and then the air began to fill the air with a smell of gunsmoke and burning.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"

Those who were out of range of the fire were coughed violently by the puffs of dust kicked up by the explosion. At the same time, their heads were buzzing from the explosion.

After 10 seconds, everyone gradually relieved themselves, and when they opened their eyes again. What I saw was a battlefield full of flames, a battlefield that had been blown to pieces. The companion who rushed in front just now had disappeared at this moment, and there was an extra lump of black stuff on the ground.

This is the corpse of their companion, this is only a small part, and the vast majority of people in the explosion just now, the entire body was blown to ashes, and only a small number of corpses can be left.

This is the war of scientific and technological civilization, there is no blood-boiling battle cry, there is no knife to flesh fighting, there are only explosions and flames.

More than half of the believers of more than 100,000 people just now were killed and wounded in an instant after the third legion's round of firepower. In the face of a modern army, there is no longer any point in outnumbering anyone.

Looking at the battlefield in front of them, all the survivors had their mouths grown, and they didn't know what words to use to describe the scene in front of them.

"Dead ...... Dead, all dead! ”

"What was that?!"

However, the 3rd Army Corps did not give these people a chance to sigh, and the artillerymen in the artillery positions quickly refilled their ammunition, and then the barrels of the guns were slightly raised, aiming at the enemy who had just survived because they were not in the area of fire.

"Ready! Fire! ”

Bang bang!

All self-propelled guns again burst into yellow flames, and countless shells burst out of the hall.

Boom Boom Boom!

Shells rained down from the sky, deafening explosions rang out again, and flames began to generate, engulfing everything around them.

The tens of thousands of remaining believers only heard a deafening explosion, followed by a sharp pain in their hearts, and before he could scream, he lost consciousness.

In the rear of Mu Ze City, those priests who were still brainwashing the believers just now looked at the rising flames on the battlefield in amazement, and their ears were buzzing with the sound of explosions.

This... That's impossible! What is this attack? Why is it so powerful?! The army of believers just now is gone, that's more than 100,000 people, and they were evaporated from the world without even touching these steel monsters?!

The other believers were also frightened by the terrifying firepower just now, and everyone's expressions began to panic a little.

Seeing this scene, the priests who were responsible for inspiring people hurriedly suppressed the fear in their hearts.

This is not good, if even the believers panicked and stopped going up to die like a fool, then the city would not be able to survive in front of such a steel monster.

The priests raised their Bibles in their hands and shouted, "Just now God has sent down another will!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the believers knelt on the ground, folded their hands, and made a sincere gesture of prayer, ready to hear God's will.

Seeing this scene, the priests nodded with satisfaction, this is a flock of sincere lambs.

"God says that before us are God's enemies, a group of demons crawling out of hell. They came here to destroy the world and kill everyone! ”

The priests uttered the words that had been recited in advance.

"We have no way back! Sincere lambs, do not fear the enemy, they will not be a pack of dirty, ugly demons crawling out of hell! ”

"If our faith is sincere enough, we will be protected by God. We who have been protected by God cannot die, and now death is only the end of a life of suffering, and our ultimate goal is to enter the peaceful land where there is no hunger, no oppression, only happiness and peace! ”

After being brainwashed by the priests, the frightened expressions of all believers disappeared without a trace, and the previous fanaticism was restored again.

"The priest is right! We have God's protection, and we are immortal! ”

"Our ultimate goal is to enter the kingdom of God after death! You don't have to be afraid of death, death is just the beginning of happiness! ”

Seeing that the believers had returned to their fanaticism, all the clergy breathed a sigh of relief.

The battle began again, and countless believers armed with various "weapons" crossed the collapsed city walls and charged the steel monsters in front of them.

Boom Boom Boom!

However, no sooner had they run out of the city walls than countless cannonballs rained down from the sky, and a cloud of flames began to rise and engulf them.

Then the tank unit slowly moved forward, except for the artillery unit, the rest of the troops followed behind the tank and slowly pressed towards Kisawa Castle.

After 10 minutes, the tank finally came to the city wall that they had just knocked down. Another round of fire coverage fell, and a violent explosion reappeared, devouring the believers who were still running forward with perseverance.

These believers are like zombies in the movie, even if they die many companions, they still keep charging forward.

In these short 10 minutes, the death toll in Mu Ze City was as high as 100,000, and on the other hand, the Third Army did not even show up a single wounded, let alone death.

Rear Command.

The commander of this army, Major General Shentu, looked at these believers who were not afraid of death, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Although the troops under his command were now advancing in an almost slaughtering manner, the enemy could not even get in front of the tanks. But the fanaticism of these believers for God was a bit unexpected to him, and he didn't expect that so many believers would not even want their lives for the sake of faith. With such huge casualties, not a single believer flinched.

Of course, it is not excluded that those believers who want to retreat will be beheaded by the church army in the rear, but this also reflects that there are very few people who retreat.

"After this battle is over, I must propose to Your Majesty that the Church of Anning should not be blocked and arrested, but should be slaughtered directly."

"Their influence on the hearts of the people has invisibly become a major obstacle to the Eastern Xia Empire's clean-up of the world."

The fanaticism of these believers for their faith has brought the Anning Church completely to the opposite side of the Eastern Xia Empire.

Although the Eastern Xia Empire could also Zhao'an Anning Church, it took advantage of the Anning Church's huge prestige among the common people. Quickly control the people at the bottom of the entire empire, and even take down most of the empire without bloodshed.

This method sounds very good, but it will plant a time bomb for the Eastern Xia Empire. Since the Church of Tranquility can allow the commoners to help the Eastern Xia occupy the empire, then the Church of Tranquility can also make the commoners turn around and rebel.

The Eastern Xia Empire has already planned to transform this world into the second home of Great Xia, and will never allow any hidden dangers to be left.

…………

Inside Kisawa Castle, the Wall of Tranquility.

This tall and ornate wall was specially built by the Church of Anning in Kizawa Castle to show the majesty of God. In order to build this wall, the bishop of the Church of Peace in Kisawa City did not take money from his rich treasury. Instead, they directly solicited donations from believers in the city, allowing them to provide free manpower and material resources.

This also made the location of the Church of Peace a city within a city, and if people who didn't know saw this city within a city, they thought it was a royal palace.

In the City of Tranquility, an old man with white hair holding a Bible and wearing the costume of a sect leader looked at the flames that were constantly generating in the distance.

He is the bishop of the Tranquility Church in Kisawa City, Clift, who claims to be the embodiment of God.

At this moment, a high-ranking clergyman came from a distance, came five paces away from Clift, knelt down on his knees, put his head on the ground, and said sincerely, "Lord, those demons have invaded the city, and our army is retreating. ”

"I see, let's go down." Clift waved his hand calmly.

After the senior clergyman stepped down, the vicar next to him couldn't help but worry, "Lord Clift, if you continue like this, it won't take more than an hour for that group of enemies to suddenly appear here." ”

"Why don't we escape through the secret passage with the wealth we've gathered over the years?"

In response to the vicar's suggestion and concern, Clift shook his head and refused, "Don't worry, everything is under my control. ”

"We don't need to win the enemy, we just need to show the enemy how much it costs us to destroy it. In half an hour, you will send an emissary to negotiate peace with this mysterious army. ”

"But now that they have the absolute advantage, will they negotiate peace with us?" The vicar is still a little worried, after all, now that the enemy has an absolute advantage, why should he negotiate peace with us.

"If they want to take over the city, then I'm sure they'll need our Church of Tranquility." Clift smiled confidently.

"As long as we at the Church of Peace offer to help them rule the city, they will definitely make peace with us. Just like those aristocrats, as long as enough benefits are given, there is nothing wrong with talking. ”

This is also why the Anning Church has been able to grow without being encircled and suppressed by the empire, and the five bishops of the Anning Church are very good at making connections. While using his position to seek benefits, he gave various benefits to the nobles, and every year the Church of Hospice gave Minister Earnest a huge fortune.

In this way, the bishops of the Church of Peace were at home in the upper echelons of the empire. This also makes them develop the idea that no matter what they do, as long as the benefits given are large enough, they can negotiate it.

There is nothing wrong with their thinking, but it is clear that they are overestimating their own weight. In the eyes of the Eastern Xia Empire, they are nothing, and they are even less qualified to negotiate terms with the Eastern Xia Empire.

As for the so-called popular will, the Eastern Xia Empire really needs the popular will of the people at the bottom of this world. But this demand has not reached the necessary level, there is icing on the cake, there is no harm.

Clift wanted to prove the weight of the Church of Peace by constantly sending believers to death, and then use this as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the Eastern Xia Empire. If you use this method against other countries, it will still be useful, but for the Eastern Xia Empire, the more you have the hearts of the people, the closer you are to death.

Since ancient times, the Great Xia civilization has never allowed anyone or force other than the central government to have a huge popular heart.

Clift's actions made the Third Legion realize that the vast majority of the city's population were followers of the Church of Tranquility. Even if they take this place with absolute force, if they want these people to help the infrastructure of the Eastern Xia Empire, they must go through the Church of Anning.

Rear Command.

After Shen Tu realized the state of the city, his expression became extremely indifferent, and he ordered in a cold tone, "Inform the armored forces to stop continuing to advance, and the whole army will withdraw from Muze City." ”

"Yes!" The correspondent immediately connected to the channels of all the soldiers on the front.

"Notice, now the whole army withdraws from Muze City, repeat, the whole army withdraws from Muze City."

"Tell the helicopter gunships to prepare white phosphorus bombs, and when our troops withdraw from Muze City, drop all white phosphorus bombs into it." Shentu's order sentenced 2 million people in Muze Castle to death.

Shen Tu himself knew very well how many people would die and how many families would be destroyed by this order. Even because of the effect of the white phosphorus bomb, these people will die in extreme pain.

Whether it is for the sake of labor or the influence of inner morality, if you can, you want to reduce the death of civilians. But judging from the current situation, it is obviously impossible for the Eastern Xia Empire to occupy this place if it wants not to destroy the city again.

Because of these 2 million fanatical believers, it is impossible to obediently obey the orders of the Eastern Xia Empire. If they are not disposed of, they will explode at any time like a time bomb, causing great trouble to the Eastern Xia Empire.

Since they are in the way, then he Shentu will come to fulfill the duties of a soldier in Great Xia. Become a man who ordered the slaughter of 2 million people, and bear the sin of Great Xia.

My name is Shen Tu, the Tu of Human Tu, and I am a Bactrian soldier.

It's a hero, but it's also a demon.
