Chapter 518: Holy Crusade
Today is an unforgettable day for the Western Continent.
Fanatical believers gathered on the outskirts of Arosa to participate in the conscription elections of the Holy Cross.
"I have a lot of strength! I can definitely be a help to the Pope!",
Young Harvey fiddled with his muscular muscles, and this handsome young man with blue eyes was indeed a very toned man.
His slightly curly hair, combined with his burning gaze, made the recruiters very optimistic.
Moreover, this young man also has pure Holguin blood, and his blue eyes and golden curls prove the purity of his bloodline.
After fiddling with his muscles, Harvey looked confidently at the recruiter.
"Sir, I feel that I absolutely fit the requirements to be called a Holy Crusader!"
The recruiter didn't give him a direct answer, of course, such a strong young man is definitely a rare talent.
Give him a tomahawk and a suit of armor, and he will definitely be able to make a lot of feats on the battlefield!
However, it would be too wasteful for a young man as athletic as him to be sent to the battlefield as a soldier.
"It's a pity, my dear child, that you can't be a soldier of the Holy Cross. ”
The recruiter said apologetically, but then, a smile appeared on his face.
"If you have an idea, I suggest you go over there and have a look. ”
The recruiter pointed to a recruiting position next to him, where is not the place to accept ordinary soldiers!
Where is the recruiting point for officers! Any young man who is favored by the big men there will be able to become a high-ranking officer!
Harvey looked at the recruiter in disbelief, as if he was a little unconfident in his own level.
"I, do I really have this chance?"
"Of course, of course, my dear child. ”
"You have the perfect potential to be a leader. ”
Although the recruiter was absolutely sure, Harvey really didn't know what potential he had.
He was a complete thug in the civilian quarters of Arossa, and while worshipping at the Cathedral of the Holy Radiance, he was infected by Pope Evan.
So, he became a very devout believer, and when he heard the news of the Holy Crusade conscription, he immediately came to report it.
"You will be the pride of our family!"
Harvis, who came from a family of merchants, was never taken seriously by his family since he was a child, after all, he was too capable of causing trouble.
During his time at the academy, he had been addicted to fighting, and this young man had developed the belligerent character of the Holguin people to the fullest.
Because of this, the elders of the family never had high hopes for him.
It wasn't until he became a devout believer and decided to come to the army that his father, who barely praised him, said that.
Moreover, he was also given a small sum of money to buy a suit.
Dressed in brand-new riding boots and the most fashionable outfit of the moment, Harvey looked like a student who had graduated from an officer academy.
However, this guy has never experienced a serious militarized education.
"Hello, I'm here to enlist as a non-commissioned officer. ”
Harvey still looked a little timid, and after entering the camp for recruiting non-commissioned officers, the people in front of him made his eyes widen directly.
The person recruiting non-commissioned officers here is actually General Bell of the Oga Empire!
This general is a well-known presence in the empire, leading the naval battle of the Sea of Eugens, and fighting with those guys in the southern continent.
In the end, he won more with less and successfully defended the southern shore of the Oga Empire.
This is a big shot!
"You...... Are you General Bell?"
Harvey looked at the general with a little surprise, and Bell looked up and looked at Harvey carefully.
What a handsome lad!
"Come, son, sit down, I ask you, why did you join the army?"
General Bell said very approachably, his eyes shining with confidence.
"For the glory of the Church, for my allegiance to Pope Evan!"
“
Excellent!"
General Bell clapped his hands twice as a sign of encouragement.
"You're a good lad, and besides, you're a very promising lad!"
Isn't it, there aren't many young men who believe in the Pope like they do now?
The children of those merchants were basically sent to read some messy things and do some literary creation in the academy.
A mess of poems and plays was written, and General Bell could only shake his head when he looked at the students.
However, Harvey was different, and the child's eyes gleamed with piety.
What a spirit, what a lovely lad!
"How's your fitness?"
"I've got a lot of strength!
That's right, when fighting people, strength can break the nose bones of other gangsters.
When he was searched by the sheriff, he was agile and slid the door and picked the lock, which was a good hand!
Harveys naturally wouldn't tell this black history, and although he was a devout believer, he wasn't a fool.
"I need a sergeant officer under me, and I think you're just right!"
Non-commissioned officer!
Harvey couldn't believe that this high-ranking general was so optimistic about himself!
"I, can I?"
He was in disbelief, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Young man, you need to be more confident!"
"You should say, I must be able to, instead of asking, can I?"
General Bell said, and Harvey nodded, a look of determination on his face.
"I'll be sure!"
Harveys replied with extraordinary firmness, this look, such a gesture, yes, this is a perfect non-commissioned officer!
"Kid, you're a great learner! I'll train you to be an excellent non-commissioned officer!"
After saying that, General Bell didn't even ask his name, and directly took out a non-commissioned officer's medal from a drawer and put it on his chest.
"May the Light be with you!"
General Bell patted the young man on the shoulder, and the young man nodded heavily.
"Go ahead, go and report, I'm very optimistic about you!"
After saying that, General Bell pointed in the direction behind him, and now, Harvey was already a qualified non-commissioned officer.
He left happily, and General Bell was the only one left in the tent.
Just as Harvey was running out, Lucifer, dressed in a black robe, walked into the tent.
"I saw a young man running out with a spring breeze on his face. ”
"That's a good lad. ”
General Bell handed Lucifer a dozen forms, officers recruited from the conscription these days.
"I have to say, you're really efficient. ”
Lucifer flipped through the form and marveled at General Bell's ability to do things.
"Still, I'm a little tired of those oily little ghosts. ”
It seemed that Lucifer had specifically said Harveys who had just run out of the tent, and General Bell smiled.
In terms of cultivation, he is indeed inferior to Lucifer, but in terms of leading troops to fight, he is much more familiar than Lucifer.
This kind of young man is the best advocate for the church.
They're young, they're energetic, they're driven.
The most important thing is that they are easy to be mastered and easy to get hot, which is the best lad to control.
"Do you know what the greatest glory of an Olguin family is?"
Lucifer shook his head.
As a native of the North Harrigan Islands, Lucifer was not an Olguin of pure blood.
His mother was from Holguin and his father was from Hedrenza.
Speaking of which, Lucifer should be considered half Holguin.
"The greatest honor is that there is a non-commissioned officer in my family. ”
"His grandfather, his father, his mother, would be proud of him. ”
"And they are also willing to pay a lot of money for their son's career in the army to be smoother!"
General Bell smiled, and Lucifer frowned.
Could it be that it was just for his parents to shell out some money?
"Moreover, this young man is so handsome that he can be the object of a generation of young people. ”
"There is no teenager who is not enthusiastic, especially when you see such a young and excellent non-commissioned officer!"
"He just needs a victory in a local war, bring an olive branch to her, and then, back in Arossa, he will become an elite non-commissioned officer in the limelight!"
General Bell knows how to turn a non-commissioned officer into an elite.
He also knew how to make these people naturally embrace the Empire.
Just two words – glory.
When they walk down the street with glory and are admired, they are already elite.
And these elites are the best pawns!
They can be composed as tragic epics or as living myths.
Whether they are dead or alive, they are perfect pawns!
"Is that how the Holguins treat their people?"
Lucifer shook his head helplessly.
Is this taking one's own people for fools?
"No, no, no, as fallen angels, you have committed more sins. ”
"And we're just in control of their thoughts. ”
General Bell smiled, for the populace of the West, they simply do not get everything that is true.
What they could see was decorated by the church.
What they could hear, it was adapted by the church.
They live in the world of Truman created by the church, and all they need to do is give their labor, money, and life to the church.
"They are ignorant, but they can live happily ever after. ”
"Isn't this something to be pursued as an ordinary person?"
General Bell smiled.
It seems that he doesn't care more about whether those non-commissioned officers will survive the first brutal battle.
Whether they live or die, they just need to go through it, and that's enough.
"It has nothing to do with me. ”
"Yi Wenmian said, within three days, prepare for the eastward crusade. ”
After Lucifer left a word, he didn't say much.
General Bell looked at the departing Lucifer and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
How can a pope's pawn know the real thing?
It seems to be a dog of the Pope, but in fact, he is just a pawn about to be sacrificed after all.
After all, he is not an Holguin, nor is he a Hawkins.
As a descendant of the Hedrensians, even if you already have incomparably strong strength, you are only an outsider after all.
The Holy Crusade will be divided into two factions, one of which will enter the Red Eagle Federation through the former Hedrensa North Austrian Federation in the north.
Banish the forces of the Red Eagle Federation to the east of Mount Gasodas, so that they can never cross Mount Gasodas.
The other is to march eastward from Sicilies and directly defeat the northern border of Tianzhu Kingdom.
Since the Tianzhu Kingdom has also mixed in this troubled water, then the so-called northern god of war Rosh has to accept the wrath of the church.
The War of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse led the Red Eagle Federation, and after they pacified the north, they gathered the remnants of Hedrensa, and those who did not obey could not be better off as death squads.
And those who obey will also draw out the men in the prime of life and join the ranks of the Eastern Crusade.
The plague took the Holy Cross to the Tianzhu Kingdom to pack up the northern god of war Rosh.
Then, the navy of the Death Belt and the Death Knights under the command of Satan crossed the Sea of Eugis and marched directly south to plunder the cities and villages of the Northern Rowandan Empire.
As for the Foggy Moon Empire, naturally there are people who deal with them well.
The Famine will lead the sea beasts of the North Harrigan Islands to interfere with the warships and merchant ships of the Misty Moon Empire.
There is only one purpose!
Plunder!
