The great swordsman Geraint, who acted as the commander-in-chief of the defenders of Baden, was a little overwhelmed by the fierce battle for several days, even the body of the great swordsman was a little unbearable, and he was resting in the bedroom at this time, but just when he was sleeping soundly, the great swordsman's keen perception made him hear the sound of horses' hooves and fighting in the distance, he quickly rolled over from the bed, walked outside the door, and jumped to the roof, at this time there was already a flame in the direction of the city gate in the distance.

"Not good!"

The great swordsman came down from the roof and hurriedly ordered the guards to beat the drums and gather the generals, and soon all the generals who lived nearby rushed to the tent.

At this time, Geraint has basically figured out what happened in front of him, although the truth behind the scenes is not clear, but one thing is certain, that is, the enemy has broken through the city gate, and has entered the city, and now the city is full of enemy troops, as for the enemy shouted that Grace has surrendered, Geraint does not believe it at all. However, he also thought of the worst-case scenario, which was that Glacis and his pursuing legion had been wiped out.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Geraint didn't have any extra nonsense and cut straight to the point:

"According to the latest news, the Knights Templar opened the city gates through a sneak attack, and the number of enemies is not less than 10,000, and it is still pouring in. At present, the front battalion has fallen into complete chaos, and most of the army has been in a state of loss of contact and control. Therefore, our immediate priority now is to gather the army and try to re-establish the defensive line in front of the Overseer, if the Overseer fails, we will have to withdraw from Baden and save our strength. ”

Geraint quickly explained the situation and plan, and quickly arranged the next action, and the generals of the various departments immediately went their separate ways.

Geraint personally led the guards to receive the defeated troops in the main street of Baden, and anyone who came across him would be immediately reorganized into a new ranks, as long as he reported the number of his troops, and so on until dawn, and the main street alone received two battalions, close to a thousand troops.

Using his general's guard and the defeated troops he received, Geraint arranged for the army to move a lot of debris to block the entire road, he knew that the main force of the other side was cavalry, so he tried to avoid the impact of the other side, but unexpectedly, the enemy army did not launch an attack on the depth of the city before dawn.

It was not until dawn the next day that the enemy's army launched an attack deep into the city, and at this time Geraint saw the cavalry of the opponent's neatly formed but wearing Higg uniforms, Geraint had completely understood that Glacys and his pursuers were all finished, and the reason why the other party did not rush to attack last night was only because the opponent was victorious, so they were waiting for their infantry to catch up with the possible street battle that would take place next.

When a large number of siege engines were brought from the other side of the street, followed by the tall figure of the cyclops, Geraint decisively gave the order to retreat, knowing in his heart that after the loss of two great swordsmen and a great magician, the disparity between the enemy and the enemy was huge, and he had to abandon Baden.

When Geraint gathered all the troops at the west gate of Baden City and finally counted the number of people, he found that he had less than 30,000 troops at his disposal. Excluding the soldiers who died in the previous defense of the city and the completely lost cavalry corps, in the enemy raid last night alone, their own forces were reduced by 10,000 people.

The news of the fall of Baden was rushed to the city of Triumph by 800 miles on the same day. When Higg XIII heard the terrible news, he took the letter with a trembling hand, read it twice, and made sure that the seal at the end of the letter was correct, and at last he sat down on his throne with a blank gaze, and repeated four words in his mouth:

"How is it possible? How is it possible?"

The news of the defeat quickly spread throughout the government and the opposition, and the whole country was shocked. But the most terrible thing is not the fall of Baden, nor the loss of 30,000 elite soldiers, but the death of the dragon knight Gracis, the spiritual leader of the Higg army, which means the fall of the Higg Eagle. As a result, the Emperor will no longer have the courage to confront the Templars. So this is the biggest blow to the entire Hig Empire.

On the third day after the fall of Baden, on behalf of all the people of the Higg Empire, Busmann Roland Higg, the thirteenth emperor of the Higg Empire, announced on behalf of all the people of the Higg Empire that from now on, the Hig Empire will have the only faith in the God of Light, and all affairs of the Empire will be guided by the Holy See.

At the same time, the envoy carrying the letter of surrender of Higg XIII was already on his way to the Papal States, and made Baden his first stop, and after meeting with the chief knight Gutsian in Baden, he was escorted by the griffin knight to Winston.

After receiving the messenger's bow on the throne of the Pope's Palace, Emperor Hepburn received the letter of surrender stamped with the seal of Emperor Higg, and Emperor Hepburn felt unprecedented complacency, because from this moment on, nearly half of the forces on the continent regarded the belief in the God of Light as the state religion, and all military affairs of the country had to be carried out by the Holy See, no, by the nod of Emperor Hepburn. Even the succession of the throne had to be baptized by his pope in order to receive God's blessings.

Another reason for Des Hepburn's satisfaction was that he used the lowest cost to bring his opponent to his knees, which was exactly the same as his goal before starting the war, and he didn't want to get bogged down in a war with Higg, which would only benefit the fisherman. In order to achieve this goal, he even did not hesitate to invite out the paladin who had been in retreat for many years.

And the result did satisfy him, and as soon as the arrogant young man of Higg XIII smacked him in the ass, and then broke his right arm, he was immediately frightened, and threw himself on his knees before him, wagging his tail and begging for mercy.

"What a child!" Tees Hepburn sneered inwardly, and then announced an important decision in front of the messenger of Higg.

Emperor Hepburn will personally go to Triumph, the capital of the Higg Empire, to perform a baptism ceremony for Emperor Higg XIII to show the approval and blessing of the God of Light for the throne of Higg XIII.

Not only the Pope will be there for this ceremony, but also the three cardinals and the Templars, who will witness the greatest baptismal ceremony since the establishment of the Holy See while protecting the Pope's safety.

As for the purpose of Des Hepburn's visit, on the one hand, of course, to show off his sovereignty over Higg and to sow the glory of God by the way, on the other hand, perhaps only he knows.

One thing has ended perfectly, and there is another thing that should be dealt with.

The second thing is smaller, but perhaps more difficult and important than the first.

From the Holy See's blitzkrieg to Higg's defeat and the emperor's surrender, the entire war lasted for half a month, which coincided with the unique Bauhinia period in the south of the mainland, so this short but huge impact on the situation on the mainland was also called the "Bauhinia War".
