At the end of the battle in the south, in the north, as if sensing something, Artis suddenly got up and looked up and looked south under the surprised gaze of others. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Under his true inspiration, in the south, a pillar of heaven suddenly brightened, suppressing a star that was originally competing with it, and began to sweep the entire south.

"Is this feeling finally about to begin?"

He looked at the south with a solemn gaze, sensing a deeper source in the darkness.

It was destruction, with the heat and cruelty of blood and fire, and the power of the Destiny that was about to dominate the Northern Regions, which was terrifying.

Sensing this power, Artis clearly saw that as the several qi fortunes that had originally besieged the Heavenly Pillars around them gradually declined, a light was running through the entire Northern Regions and was about to sweep in.

A little bit of blood turned into a spear and slammed into it.

Artis couldn't help but snort, and above his head, an ancient tree phantom appeared, and the branches gently vibrated to offset the impact of the power of destiny and protect him.

"The Mandate of Heaven has suddenly changed, is it that the victory or defeat of the South has already been decided?"

He thought so in his heart, but saw a knight from the outside suddenly rushing in, as if carrying some urgent message.

"Your Majesty Artis, there is urgent news from the south!"

After a while, Barton stepped forward with Nadir and the others and watched Artis bow down.

"A few months earlier, in the south, King Barrett of Indelia had led his army to confront the Confederate forces of the five surrounding neighbors, but at a critical moment, the nobles within the Confederate army rebelled, resulting in the defeat of the Confederation. Barrett led his army in pursuit of the leader of the Alliance, Edus, and had already besieged the opposing city-state. ”

Speaking of this, in front of him, Bazel, who had been appointed as the commander of the legion by Artis before, suddenly knelt down: "Not only that, after defeating the coalition army, Barrett also sent envoys to various city-states to recruit surrenders, and threatened that those who did not surrender would slaughter the entire family after breaking the city, which made the surrounding situation tense for a while, and many lords were already frightened by his power and surrendered to him. ”

"Has it come to this point?" the thought flashed through Artis's mind, but he saw that the audience was still continuing.

"At present, the other party's letter of persuasion has been transmitted to the north, not only in the south, but even we have received the message!"

He said this, and then handed over a long stack of heralds in his hand.

Artis took a look, then sneered.

I saw that it was full of boasting and threats, and the words on it could be called thrilling, and it was often a threat to slaughter the family, which made people tremble.

But for him, that's it. Not to say that he will not be frightened at all, just say that the above words are really rough in his opinion, like a madman's show-off.

Underneath him, another knight delivered a large volume of letters, on which the exact beginning and end of the battle were clearly recorded. The content is so detailed that even if the other party sees it, they should be shocked.

This is the masterpiece of the believers, because the believers of the god of nature are widely distributed in the north, Artiste organized a scout group, integrated the forces of the past decades of church management and development and established a precise system, with the assistance of divine magic and other means, the speed of transmission of information is definitely beyond the imagination of everyone in this era.

He carefully read the news that had happened these days, and his face couldn't help but become slightly solemn, and his mood was heavy.

Judging from the news that came, after that battle, the other side had completely defeated the surrounding rebels at this moment, and it was only a matter of time before they were pacified.

And after the other party has pacified the south, with the other party's character, at most in a year or two, he will definitely lead the army to the north and completely pacify the northern region.

At that point, the two will collide directly, leaving no room for manoeuvre.

"Time is ticking!"

Artis thought in his heart and looked down: "What is the situation around?"

"In our south, several city-states seem to be gradually becoming unstable, with a large number of nobles inclined to surrender, and only the royal family is holding out. ”

"Around us, the situation has stabilized a little, but with this incident, the situation has started to rise and fall. ”

"Of these, the Duchy of Barlow is slightly better, but because of the last time we slaughtered a large number of their knights, it has been very silent all these years, and even the hostages that we promised to send as a ransom nobleman are still in the city. ”

In Luoya, which is close to the northern desert, because of the extremely serious infiltration of the believers of the church, and because the king is young, these years have also been very peaceful. ”

・・・

Below, Nadir stepped forward and told the news sentence by sentence.

Listening to these news, Artis also nodded slightly.

"Look, it's time. He thought to himself.

"How prepared is the army?"

He asked, looking at Kercus, who was standing beside him.

Seeing him ask, Kerkus stepped forward quietly, his face calm.

"At present, all the selected officers have been sent to the various regiments and held low-ranking positions such as the commander of the ten, although there are still shortcomings, but they are barely enough. ”

"And at present, the expansion of each legion has ended, and the original two legions plus the newly established two legions have a total of 30,000 people!"

He paused, lowered his head slightly, and then said: "But this is only the official number of elite legions, as His Majesty has ordered veterans who are low-level sheriffs to lead the people to train in peacetime, plus we recruit soldiers with good salaries, as long as Your Majesty wants, we can recruit another team of tens of thousands at any time." ”

"It's just that in this way, because they have not undergone rigorous training and a large number of officers who have cultivated and have a fighting spirit, the combat effectiveness of these people will be seriously reduced, and they will only be better than the farmers recruited by the original lord, and they will not be able to compare with the elite soldiers of other principality lords at all. ”

When he finished speaking, Bit also stepped forward.

On his body, a divine power flickered, and there were unusual fluctuations faintly.

This is a sign that he is about to break through the high priesthood, in the years of assisting Artis, with more blessings from the divine power in the underworld, he has almost walked the path of other sacrifices for a lifetime, and before the age of thirty, he will break through to the high priest, breaking the history of promotion in the history of the church.

"Your Majesty, after our selection, in your sacrificial group, there are thirty people in yellow robes at this time, more than 200 people in red robes, and more than 2,000 people in white robes, a total of 3,000 people. They are all sacrifices that meet your requirements, with powerful combat power and various blessings. ”

"The food has also been prepared, with the contribution and accumulation of the church, although a large amount has been consumed in the previous construction and distribution, but it is still enough for our army to go out. ”

On the side, Barton silently added.

Listening to these narrations, Artis nodded slightly, and while his heart gradually calmed down, he couldn't help but be a little distracted, and his thoughts were a little far away from this place.

He thought of the past, when he had just been born again. At that time, there were not so many believers and vassals, and there were no such huge human and material resources.

There was only a broken tribe, few in people and lacking in faith, and it was almost impossible for the spirit that supported him to break away from his body, but there was a little bit of firm and pious faith that supported him, so that he would not sink back into the eternal darkness.

"Before you know it, it's come to this point. ”

He raised his head, a faint vicissitudes of life in his heart emerged, and a pair of pale golden eyes shone with a ghostly light.

In the darkness, under the shroud of a pillar of heaven, an ancient tree floated in it, and at this moment, the branches and leaves of its body were swaying, as if it was about to move.
