Chapter 346: The situation is critical
In the night, Armand stood in the church, looking at the statue of Vulcan with a playful smile.
I thought that the Northern Army of the Burlingame Empire would be able to come to the city in the afternoon, but I never expected that there was no trace of them at this time.
It seems that something has happened that I don't know about, but anyway, it's excellent news.
With a certain amount of time to buffer, it is more certain to steal beams and change columns.
Today is just a small attempt, but I don't want to be opposed by everyone. It seems that it would be very difficult to change doctrine directly in the hearts of these devout believers. Maybe he will set himself on fire and make himself a public enemy.
In this case, why don't you think of a way, avoid the important and slowly eat away at the belief of the god of fire, and hold high the banner of the god of fire to conquer the city.
Yes, Armand did not have the slightest fear of the 100,000 enemy troops that were coming, but had an urge to try it.
If you want to talk about hole cards, it is the ability given by the main god company.
Consume the power of faith and directly improve the strength of the believers under your command. Of course, you have to be a person under the crown of salvation of faith to enjoy this treatment.
If you give birth to a legion of high-ranking warriors, then the enemies outside the city will not be so terrible, but will become an excellent whetstone.
The devout followers of the god of fire cannot be corrupted by themselves, but those who are pan-believers should be relatively easy to accept this set of teachings. Coupled with their bishopric status and the critical situation outside the city, they did not worry that they would not convert.
As a member of the civilized world, as the elite of the Federation, he had the confidence and courage to overcome these difficulties.
Transferring the devout disciples of the Vulcan God to defend the walls was only the first step, and the next step was to quietly carry out this great mission in the city.
Hurried footsteps rang out, and Clarence walked over quickly, speaking to Armand.
Armand turned to look at Clarence, "What's the matter?"
"The main force of the Northern Legion of the Burlingame Empire bypassed our city of Saint Ga and outflanked the retreat of the Southern Legion from the rear," Clarence said to Armand.
Then his tone became heavy: "I just got the battle report, the Southern Army was completely annihilated, and almost no survivors survived"
"That means I, the city of Saint-Ga, has become a lonely city completely," Clarence said to Armand.
At this moment, the footsteps came again: "Your Excellency, the Southern Legion has been destroyed, and my holy city has become an isolated city. The situation is urgent, and the subordinates want to immediately gather all the soldiers to go to the city wall and strengthen the fortifications overnight."
"I've entrusted you with the task, so you can do it boldly," Armand said to Alec as he walked by.
Alec bowed to Armand: "Yes"
After saying that, he turned around and strode away.
Just as Alec was leaving, Hiram came over: "Your Excellency, it's not good."
"Is it because of the fall of the Southern Legion?" Armand asked Hiram as he spoke.
Hiram shook his head: "It's not just this"
"I just counted the food in the city, and it can only last for a month, so we have to think of a solution to the crisis in this month. Otherwise, we will be starved to death if we don't wait for the Northern Legion of the Burlingame Empire to attack," Hiram said to Armand.
Armand heard this and fell into deep thought: "A month?"
"It should be enough," Armand said to Hiram.
Hiram couldn't help but be stunned, and his eyes flashed with anticipation: "Is it enough? Has His Excellency the Bishop found a solution to the crisis? Or is it that His Majesty the Pope is mobilizing troops and is ready to come to support at any time?"
"No, what we need is to save ourselves, not to put our hopes in the presence of His Majesty the Pope. You know, the Pope has the Pope's concerns, and we can't let that disrupt the whole plan of the Church," Armand said to Hiram.
When Hiram heard this, it was as if he had encountered a basin of cold water, and he was instantly poured cold on his heart.
"The only thing we can do to help Captain Alec defend Saint Gal is to hold on and wait for help," Armand said to Hiram.
Hiram sighed at Armand: "The Diocese of Cloud and Mist has been lost, and the Holy City has become an isolated city, will we still have reinforcements?"
"Yes, that's our only hope at the moment," Armand said to Hiram.
Hiram saluted Armand again: "I hope the reinforcements mentioned by His Excellency the Bishop will come sooner"
"Go ahead," Armand said to Hiram.
Hiram bowed to Armand: "Yes"
Looking at Hiram's back, Armand gradually fell into thought.
"Your Excellency, do you think we'll have reinforcements?" asked Clarence to Armand.
Seeing Hiram walking away, Armand said to Clarence in a firm tone: "No, the Cloud Sect is lost, and the belly of the southern part of the empire has been completely opened to the Burlingame Empire. The archbishop is too busy to take care of himself, and he simply does not have the energy to gather troops to take the initiative"
"This battle was deliberately acquiesced in by the four crowns, so the elite of the church will not be dispatched. So we don't have reinforcements, and we can't have them," Armand said to Clarence.
A trace of despair rose in Clarence's heart: "That is to say, only death awaits us and the city of St. Ga."
"No, what awaits us should be self-help, we are living beings. Although the four crowns are very noble, but the most one, the first thing we think of is to save ourselves," Amandan said firmly.
Then the conversation changed: "When the archbishop sent you to be my personal guard, I think you should have thought about this a long time ago, didn't you?"
"I thought about dying, but I didn't think about saving myself," Clarence said honestly to Armand.
Armand turned to look at the statue of the god of fire: "Then you can think about it now"
"All people should have the right to save themselves, Clarence, are you right?" Armand asked Clarence.
The simple words had a great impact on Clarence's heart: "The right to save yourself?"
"Believe in yourself, and in the end you will accomplish a great self-salvation," Armand said to Clarence.
Clarence bowed solemnly to Armand: "Thank you for the teachings of Your Excellency Bishop, I, Clarence, will complete a self-salvation"
"If the entire city of Saint Ga had more than 100,000 people with the intention of saving themselves, then the city would be a miracle, a city that would never fall," Armand said to Clarence.
Clarence was in awe: "I also firmly believe that the city of St. Ga will become a city that will never fall"
