When Witt Dandoro chose Egil, Egil received six votes. (Read Novel.com!) Immediately afterwards, His Majesty the Emperor stood up with a chuckle, first looked at Albert, showed a slightly proud smile, and then said, "I'm really sorry, Your Majesty Albert, it seems that I am still better than you." ”

On the other side, Albert wanted to punch him and break the bridge of Egil's nose. Or simply draw your sword and kill Egil. When it was a little quieter, Albert wanted to walk away and quit the crusade. But in the end, the young, but more than the emperor of heaven and earth compared to Egil, smiled very reluctantly, and then said to Egil, "Congratulations." "That's it.

Immediately afterwards the people began to cheer for the great, commander-in-chief of the Crusaders, and at the same time the greatest and finest emperor in all of Europe. And once again, the bard's movement changed, replacing the vacant and unresolved leader's vows with the name of Egil.

"We can begin!" warriors, let's go to the Holy Land! to reclaim the land that belongs to the Christians, and to the people of the true faith, to those who have been blessed by God!" Egil cried out, and the sound of the wind and waves echoed. Make the whole speech look more exciting. On the eastern side of the island, on one of the largest naval bases, Egil stood on a makeshift platform and spoke to hundreds of soldiers who had once again boarded the transport. Behind him, a dozen or so of the remaining European kings followed. It's like a vassal or a vassal.

When the Normans passed, Egil used Norman, when the Greeks passed by, Egil used Greek, when the French passed by, Egil used French, and when the Celts passed by, Egil still used Norman......

"I always feel underestimated...... Behind Egil, Artoria felt inexplicably unhappy, and just wanted to step forward and kick Egil off the tower...... But that also makes it impossible to do anything. Recently, the Norman Empire's cultural aggression against Britain has been a little too strong. The colleges and universities spread their hands very helplessly, saying "Our teaching language is Norman" to teach the children from the root, coupled with the frequent exchanges with the Norman Empire. Marriage between the two parties also abounds. In addition, Norman has now become the official court language of continental Europe.

Those serfs who have farmed all their lives will be counted. But who of the nobles, merchants, and soldiers who had been fighting for years could not know a little Norman? What's more, more than 90 percent of the 30,000 Celtic troops at this moment were actually all soldiers produced by the system. Otherwise, do you think that after all these years of conquest, how did the Celtic army maintain its numbers? no more, no less, always 30,000 men? But in the meantime, Artoria is the only one who thinks this is normal......

In short, that's it, it is impossible to load and transport all the hundreds of thousands of troops on a ship in one day. And after a day of speeches, Egil's voice was hoarse from exhaustion. After eating some of the Golden Throat Treasure exchanged by the system, he went back to the barracks in the military port area to sleep.

It was not a simple matter to transport more than 400,000 troops to the Holy Land. Organizing, deploying, and the slightest mistake is a big deal. Although the Norman and Celtic soldiers were accustomed to doing everything in an orderly manner, the Greek army could also be disciplined to the greatest extent. But the armies of other countries can't do that - it's a rare thing to be able to keep them disciplined in battle. Don't expect them to do well in non-combat situations. In fact, these guys are as bad as ever in non-combat situations.

There is no doubt about the need to maintain discipline in order to carry the goods as quickly as possible, and it is the second of December. If we don't move quickly, then I'm afraid we will have to fight in the summer of 1006. In the summer, in the middle of the desert, and the Arabs...... Just think about it to know what it was like. Egil was very agitated. In fact, according to Egil's original plan, these troops were transported to Antioch, after which the dove took the magpie's nest and slaughtered the Grand Duke of Antioch, Bohemond I. Capture Antioch - also under the pretext of advancing the base of the Crusaders, of course. And then .........,

Now, however, it seems that this plan needs to be revised - in the largest port area where Egir is located, since the vast majority of the ships on board are Norman troops - and while staying with the Normans, the armies of other countries are also subconsciously influenced by them, and remain in a more orderly state. Not in other ports, where several conscripts from the German vassal states, especially Bavaria, wanted to squeeze forward and sit down on the ships as soon as they saw them. This resulted in a very tragic stampede, in which dozens of people were killed and hundreds were injured.

When Egir learned of this, the commander of the coalition took advantage of the problem and ridiculed Henry, who had voted for Albert at the time, and sent a temporary military police of Normans to the various port districts. In order to maintain order.

However, even then, the speed with which the army boarded the ship was not very fast. At the same time, because Egil used his army as a gendarme, the soldiers and nobles of other countries complained about it. This was also a headache for Egil, so he had to replace some of the gendarmes with Celts, as well as the more disciplined Swiss mercenaries on the Burgundian side, and soldiers from the Italian city-states. However, this made the Germans, who looked down on the Italians in their hearts, and the French, who had a deep enmity with Burgundy, feel dissatisfied.

"It would be nice to unify sooner, what a ......" Egil felt a headache, and leaning towards one side would annoy the other. Although, it was not impossible to squeeze out the French and German troops. But that's an army of nearly 100,000 men. It would be much more convenient to have them as cannon fodder. And Egil also wants to maintain the image of an impartial commander.

Thus, on the third day, a group of carefully selected French and German gendarmes to maintain order were appointed to the position of the Frenchmen in charge of the French, and the Germans in charge of the Germans...... That's it, albeit a little less efficient. But fewer people complained.

"The plan should be revised. A full-scale landing in February, followed by a major assault on Jerusalem. And ......" Egil shoved Artoria, who was sleeping next to him, and woke her up after being punched. Discussed with her again, the "second plan" that he mentioned when he was in Kherson.

Egir then got up again, walked out of his dormitory, and walked towards another tent in the middle of the barracks.

"Master, Maria misses you so much......"

After gently touching the little nun Maria in his arms, Egil smiled at Joan of Arc: "I'm going to trouble you again." ”

"No hassle. Joan of Arc shook her head and replied......

At the same time, when the whole of Europe was boiling over, it was a different scene in the Holy Land, in Syria, in Egypt, in Mesopotamia, in the Arabian Peninsula. The other, a fanaticism. Not at all inferior to the fervor of the crusaders.

"Let's have a holy war. ”

With Saladin's order, the entire Fatimid Empire began to function. When his henchman, and the bravest general in the empire, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Mamluk Janissaries, Chohail Suikili, brought back the bad news that "Khaireddin had failed". The empire has gone mad in restlessness, panic, and despair. In all the towns, all those who could go to war were grouped together for military training.

All the emirs, all the tribal chieftains, were mobilized, and Saladin asked them to bring all the forces they could mobilize and assemble towards Jerusalem. At the same time, the garrisons, which had been scattered in Syria and Egypt, were mobilized, and the total number of troops more than doubled, nay, even doubled, was gradually massing towards Jerusalem.

At this moment, a tragic mood was spreading through Saladin's empire. The army, the soldiers, the entire empire is about to face an unparalleled challenge. The imams gathered in the mosque, holding the Quran in their hands, and prayed day and night. Civilians donated what little rations they had, and countless Arab merchants poured their wealth into spontaneous armies to fight the Crusader invaders.

Looking at the growing army, gradually, gradually filling the entire holy city of Jerusalem, the number of troops is so large that it is innumerable. Saladin, while feeling proud, also felt an extreme uneasiness: was it really appropriate to dump everything he could get at his disposal in Jerusalem? or, in case, in case of loss, what would be the fate of the entire Arab world? Perhaps it would be better to negotiate with the Crusaders?

However, Saladin soon abandoned the idea.

"They will definitely not be negotiated. If we take one step back, they will take two steps forward. They are a pack of hungry wolves that can never be fed...... So, only combat can be done......"
