Chapter 253: Changing Generals in Battle

readx;? As a result, the young Higg the Great's capricious mistakes were repeated, and he thought of the opposition of his ministers when he first appointed Moses, and gradually began to doubt his choice, and the idea of whether to replace the general of the counterinsurgency army.

At this time, Cardinal Raphael suddenly entered the palace to meet Siege XIII, and after some politeness, Raphael's conversation began to enter the theme of this meeting, that is, he wanted to negotiate on behalf of the Holy See and the Higg Empire on the matter of joint counterinsurgency between the two sides. And the reason why Raphael chose this point in time, the reason given by Raphael is that the Templars who went to the Cullen Mountains have returned from their training, and the Holy See has the strength to free up their hands to assist Higg in quelling the rebellion, and the real reason behind the scenes is that Dece Hepburn thinks that if he does not make a move at this time, under the strategy of Trorens and his sons, the Holy See is likely to have no chance to make a move, but that is obviously not in the interests of the Holy See, so Des Hepburn issued a secret order, and Raphael came.

Boothman Rolland, who was worried that the counterinsurgency was going too slowly and that the rebels might return, was overjoyed when he heard the news, but when he urged the Holy See to send troops to help, Bishop Raphael put forward the Holy See's condition, that is, the army needed to be commanded by the Holy See.

Although Busman Rolland is strong on the outside and capable in the middle, he still understands the basic political interests, if the military power is handed over to the Holy See, then he, the emperor, will really become an ornament, so he resolutely refuses the condition of the Holy See. However, Bishop Raphael did not expect him to accept this condition, so he turned to the next thing, demanding that the command of the Trorens father and son must be removed and replaced by another general who was friendly to the Holy See to take command of the army, but the specific tactical arrangements must be carried out according to the advice of the Holy See.

Bootman Rolland, who was already full of resentment against the Trorens and his sons, immediately agreed, so a new general rushed to the outside of Lua with the Holy Decree to take over the position of the Trorens and his sons. Bishop Raphael also passed the agreement he had negotiated with Busman Rolland back to Vesston through the Griffin Knights.

The ambitious Moses Trorense had already set a trap and waited for Bols to step in, and then he would use this battle to eradicate the roots and completely wipe out the rebels. Moreover, the news sent by the secret agents lurking in Lua City shows that all kinds of troop deployments and logistics movements in the city at this time seem to be preparing for a big battle, so it is not surprising that the decisive battle is close at hand.

However, just when the Trorens father and son were gearing up and preparing for a big battle, the news sent by the spy said that all the deployments and movements in the city had suddenly stopped, and the old Trorens immediately ran to see his son after receiving the news, and Moses also felt strange after reading the news, and the two looked at each other and did not understand what was happening at all.

Could it be that the plan was leaked, impossible, the whole plan is currently only known to the father and son, even if the cronies around him are kept in the dark, how can it be leaked?

The confusion of the Trorens father and son did not last long, a few days later, the new commander of the counterinsurgency army, General Campe, had arrived at the city of Lua with the holy decree of Higg XIII, after seeing the content of the holy decree, the Trorens father and son were dark, and their hearts were miserable, the two persisted for more than two months and worked hard for the bureau of their subordinates for fear of falling short, and the rebels in the city obviously received the same tip, so they suddenly did not move.

However, His Majesty's will could not be violated, and the father and son could only hurriedly hand over the work, although the two of them unreservedly presented their battle plan to the new commander, but seeing General Kamp's absent-minded appearance, the Trorens father and son knew that it would be in vain to say more, so they rushed back to Marin City with their own soldiers in frustration and followed the requirements of the holy decree to continue to be their own city lord.

The newly appointed General Camp waited for reinforcements from the Holy See to arrive, but the rebels in the city broke through before the reinforcements arrived. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Bols led 10,000 cavalry to fight his way out of the besieging barracks and disappeared into the field before dawn.

General Kemp, who was originally full of confidence, only blinked an eye, and found that he was obviously surrounding the enemy, but now he was suffering from the enemy on his back. In order to remove the threat from the periphery, he had to order the pursuit of the cavalry that broke through, but because the rebels were all cavalry and extremely familiar with the terrain, and often launched counter-raids or set up ambushes to block the pursuers, the pursuers were very embarrassed. However, the strategy of Moses Trorens played a huge role at this time, many eastern regions had been regained into the hands of the Empire, and the slightly larger towns were stationed with troops, and as soon as they heard that the enemy cavalry was coming, the city gates were closed and waiting, in the face of such a scene, Bols's cavalry did not dare to fight, so they could only take a detour and loot some undefended villages and towns to replenish, but it was far from meeting the needs of 10,000 troops. So Bols led the cavalry corps to turn north and head towards the Togolese hills, for to the north of the Togolese hills a powerful empire would give him gratuitous support, but this support had been cut off by the time of the Trorens and his sons, but now seemed to be the time to re-establish the connection.

General Kemp, who received the news that the rebels had turned north, was finally relieved, at least for the time being, the danger of the enemy on his back was removed, and it was impossible for the enemy outside the city to launch an attack on the besieging army in a few days, and at this time the Holy See's reinforcements had also arrived, and the Templar Stephen led 500 elite soldiers of the Templar Order and a team of 800 priests to double the strength of the counterinsurgency.

After the two armies converged, the counterinsurgency army was immediately demoralized, and from the next day began to launch an offensive against the city of Lua. Although the defenders defended very tenaciously, but Lua City was besieged for several months, there was little supply left, and the soldiers could not guarantee three meals a day, coupled with the disparity in strength between the two sides, especially the prayer of hundreds of priests, not only improved the morale and combat effectiveness of the attack and defense, but also minimized the reduction of injuries.

The defenders in the city decided not to be trapped in the city and wait for Bols to come back, but chose to break through overnight, and chose to choose the south of the city on the route of the breakthrough, because Bols's cavalry was in the north, so the north of the city must be the position of the enemy's heavy defense.

The breakthrough that night was extremely tragic, but as the defenders expected, the defense in the south of the city was indeed relatively weak, although 30 percent of the soldiers fell on the way to break out, but still more than 15,000 troops broke out of the encirclement, and as soon as these soldiers were out of the enemy camp, they divided into three wings according to the original plan, and fled in three directions: east, south, and west.
