Obviously, the hottest topic in the whole continent now is undoubtedly the holy war, and after a month of careful preparations, the first route of the holy war expeditionary force, not counting the nearly 500,000 troops of the naval army, is ready to go. The military grain and grass supported by various countries have been continuously concentrated in various port cities along the coast. One-third of the warships on this expedition were provided by Carter, a great seafaring power, so they undoubtedly played a crucial role in this holy war.

And they didn't waste this rare opportunity, and tactfully asked the Holy See for protection, so as not to be attacked by the Han when this military force was empty, this poor country was so poor that it couldn't send any Magister-level masters when the orcs invaded, so they couldn't get the qualification to be protected, so they begged brazenly at this time!

The Pope attached great importance to Carter's request, and he formally demanded to the Han Kingdom that no force should be used against Carter during the Holy War, otherwise it would be regarded as disrespectful to God! Of course, the King of the Great Han repeatedly stated that he would not take any military action against Carter during the Holy War.

In fact, if Carter didn't say anything, the Han would not dare to make a move, so wouldn't he be the public enemy of the mainland? But why did Carter do more, was it just peace of mind? I don't think it would be, if I were King Carter, I would still be looking forward to the big Han fighting, as soon as the big man made a move, the Holy See would immediately have an excuse to use troops against the big Han, so why make such a stiff fuss in advance. There must be an unseemly conspiracy here!

But I couldn't see what it was for a while, so I had to wait and see what happened. The 500,000 people who went on this expedition were all from the three empires and the Holy See. The Great Han did not make it to the list of the first wave of offensives, and was completely dragged down by the Ishihara family, and the three empires had to guard against the Ishihara family under the pretext of the excuse. If they were spies, the safety of the expeditionary force would not be guaranteed! The Pope was obviously similarly worried, after all, the matter was too big this time, so they joined forces to squeeze the Han out of the first echelon! The Ishihara family was so scolded in the Han that they couldn't even raise their heads! Quack, it's so cool!

What is more strange is that the Seventh Princess did not lead the Varna army to participate in the first wave of the offensive, as if he had personally made a statement to the two commanders of the coalition army, Ma Qina and Feiyan Slashing the Sky Evil, asking for independent action Ma Qina and Feiyan Slashing the Sky Evil Absolute agreed very happily, they knew that they could not command Vana's troops anyway, and it happened that the first wave of attacks was difficult. But there is also a lot of credit, and it is better without Vana to participate! So the seventh princess returned to China with the provisions issued by the Holy See to rest and recuperate.

After hearing the news, Poor Dao's heart was extremely unbalanced! Why did I have to donate money to the Holy See when I left, but when the Seventh Princess left, it was the Holy See who gave her money? Everyone is nominally going to participate in the Holy Hunt, why is this gap so big?

And the army of the Holy See was at the beginning of October. When Poor Road was depressed about this, he officially set off, and the journey was smooth, arriving on the outlying islands of the Wa Kingdom in mid-November. It starts to snow in my territory in November, but it's in the tropics. It's a good time for the climate to be warm.

There were not many people on the small islands outside the Wakos, the army was withdrawn, and most of the fresh water sources were poisoned. After all, jihad is a matter that has turned the world upside down on the mainland. Can people not have any rumors at all? Obviously, the Japanese people have been prepared for a long time.

It's a pity that they still missed a big shot, the priests of the Holy See may not be good at other places, but the detoxification and curse are definitely at the expert level, under their purification spells, the poison in the freshwater source can be easily removed. Therefore, only poisoning a few ordinary sergeants with a more anxious temperament did not play a role in the scorched earth policy, but instead aroused the anger of the coalition army!

The coalition of countries said that it sounded good, and that they were engaged in holy war in order to crusade against the infidels. If you don't hear it, you're here to rob it. It's a good thing now, before they can do it, they were put down by several people first. But the coalition army was angry, and immediately showed its hideous face, and launched a crazy revenge action against the indigenous people on the island. Terrible screams came and went, and the billowing smoke almost enveloped the entire island.

The few small islands on the periphery originally added up to a few hundred people, and when most of them withdrew, there were still dozens left, and there was no value in occupying them, but an unexpected discovery made the entire hundreds of thousands of coalition troops almost crazy.

Because when the sergeants were searching these small islands, they occasionally found a few magic crystals!

These islands are all volcanic islands, after hundreds of thousands of years of sedimentation, the rich fire element energy inside has formed a large number of fire magic crystals, and after an unknown number of years of geological changes, scattered on the surface of these small islands. Although the quality has decreased a little because it has been exposed to the outside for too long, the things are really too valuable, only a few pieces found sporadically on the island, and after being appraised, there are no less than 100,000 gold coins.

This is only on the surface, but what about the underground? There must have been a Magic Crystal Mine. And what about the other islands? If they were, it would be a very frightening number! Moreover, the professionals of these robbers did not forget to search the empty houses there carefully, and although the common people had no gold or silver in their homes, they found a lot of rare seafood.

Colorful shells are very popular in landlocked countries, and the price is not low, and the large pearls and whole corals are a little dumbfounded by the nobles in the coalition army. Both of these things are beautiful and fragile, and after thousands of years of harvesting on the coast of the continent, it is difficult to find such a large and whole, and it can only be found in such a sparsely populated place. Any one of them can be said to be priceless if they are taken back to the mainland!

Is there anything more motivating for a robber than money? For the ownership of these small islands. Several countries were about to overturn the sky, and then Magina came up with a good plan, "Don't distribute ownership for the time being, and after the holy war is over, you will be rewarded for your meritorious deeds!"

Seeing the meat, a group of vicious wolves immediately broke out with an unprecedented fighting spirit. No matter what kind of battle is fought bravely, soon along the way, there is basically no decent resistance, but the coalition forces have made a lot of money on the island, there are very few islands where magic crystals appear, obviously here, they are not everywhere, but pearl coral is not missing, and the beautiful shells are a lot of grabs, these riches undoubtedly stimulated the fighting spirit of the coalition again. And the ease along the way also made them full of confidence in future victories.

The coalition fleet easily reached the front of the four largest islands of the Japanese kingdom. These four large islands occupy more than half of the land area of the Wakos, and the four of them form a square approximate by a few days' voyage from each other.

Then the next thing is the question of how to attack and occupy these four islands. Obviously, it is impossible to completely occupy this alone, but it should be possible to occupy a foothold first and then wait for reinforcements. So it seems that it is the most critical battle in this holy war.

But merit is a matter of great distribution of benefits, for the sake of endless wealth. Where do they still pay attention to tactics and other things? They all said that they are not afraid of the coming of the Heavenly King Lao Tzu, and that they can take down an island with only their own country's troops. So, the guys who have their own ghosts. The war strategy was decided almost instantly, four large islands, exactly one of the three empires plus the Holy See!

If his grandmother had led the army, he would have to do it, but Majina would not have the prestige of his grandmother, and he would not be able to command the troops of the three empires. The three empires are dead, and it doesn't matter what happens to Machina, he just needs to keep his subordinates safe, and he still has confidence in his subordinates! That's why he agreed to this almost idiotic strategy.

The Holy See came the most this time, and Magina brought a full 200,000 people, and chose the largest island of Sizhou, and the three major empires each brought 100,000 people to attack the other islands. Since they didn't encounter other people's sailors along the way, they all thought that there was no such army in the Wa Kingdom, at least there was no professional and powerful navy.

As a result, as soon as they approached the four large islands, they were startled by the battleships of the black land! Although the shipbuilding level of the Japanese countries was not as good as that of the mainland countries, and their largest warships were about the same size as the medium-sized ships of the Carter Navy, after all, this was the homeland of the people, and those small fishing boats were also converted into warships one after another, and participated in the first battle between the two sides!

In terms of numbers, it is natural that the Japanese have an absolute advantage, and neither the number of warships nor the number of warships can be compared with the mainland coalition forces. But in terms of quality, it's too far behind. In particular, the warships of the Carter Navy can shoot the small boats of the Japanese with transparent holes almost at once, and the special catapults can directly smash the small fishing boats.

Alas, it is worth mentioning that these heavy crossbows and special catapults were produced in the newly occupied areas of the Han Dynasty, and the Holy See bought them at a low price in his name and then equipped them for Carter's new naval army. In the future, it is almost inevitable that the battle between the Great Han and Carter will be avoided, and the Holy See is really not authentic to play this hand now!

The tactics of the Japanese are very simple, that is, they want to take advantage of the large number of people and fight a white-knuckle battle after they take over the strings. But how shrewd Carter's navy was, it was a master of water warfare, and he could see at a glance that the wilight was coming. Relying on the advantage of the large ship, he crashed into the most dense place of the Japanese invaders, and all the way over, knocking over countless large and small ships.

When the Japanese were finally able to take over after paying a huge sacrifice, the mages from all over the world loaded on the ship took action. Because this is a naval battle, all the mages sent by various countries are water systems, all of them are grinding their fists and grinding their hands, and they are in high spirits, usually fighting on land, they are almost forgotten mages, and they rarely have the opportunity to directly participate in the war.

The mages were like a game with each other, setting off huge waves around the battleship, overturning all the small boats that approached, and all the people on board fell into the sea to feed the fish! Obviously, with the addition of the mages, the navy was almost invincible. But the Japanese are definitely not completely powerless to fight back!

They landed on large warships. At this time, people in strange costumes also came out one after another, all of them were white robes, and a long hat more than two feet high was on their heads. Holding a stick in his hand with some white flowers tied to it, he waved it while chanting words.

Not for a while. Some huge sea beasts suddenly appeared on the sea, these guys are tens of meters in size, some are big octopuses, some are whales, some are giant crabs, in short, there are thousands of strange things. Immediately after their appearance, they began a frenzied attack on all the fleets.

These guys are very fierce, and their great strength and body allow them to sink a small ship in a few clicks, and even a medium-sized warship will sink after not taking many hits. The troops of the three empires were invincible, so they had to flee in embarrassment. Only the forces of the Holy See won the battle. After all, it is the elite of the Holy See, and the mage has brought three thousand people, as well as the Silver Pegasus Knight who has been specially seconded.

As soon as those strange guys of the Wako appeared, Machina immediately knew that these guys were mages, so he quickly sent the Silver Pegasus troops to intercept and kill. As a result, most of the white robes were killed before they could complete the spell. However, the few completed spell lands ended in failure because the number of sea beasts was too small.

That's it, it still scared Machina out of a cold sweat, and he secretly called it luck in his heart. If all the sea beasts came out, no matter how powerful he was, he would have to flee in embarrassment! However, Silver Pegasus had suffered a lot of losses. This gave him a headache, although it was not his troops, but these were all treasures of the Holy See, if the loss was too great, the Pope would ask for sin!

However, after this battle, only the Holy See defeated the Japanese in the naval battle in the four aspects, losing only more than 1,000 people, while the three major empires lost more than 10,000 people. was also beaten away in embarrassment. Seeing the strength of the Japanese Invaders, especially their cruelty, the three empires were also a little worried. The sea beasts summoned just now kill people without distinguishing between the enemy and me, and if you count them seriously, the number of widows who died at their hands was no less than that of the three major empires. With such a vicious opponent, who doesn't have a headache when they see it?

In addition, there were a lot of people who were dispatched just now, so none of the three empires was sure that they could rely on 90,000 troops to hold out for two months until reinforcements arrived, so they then decided to merge and attack an island.

With the experience of the last failure, this attack was much smoother, and it was easy to attack a large island relatively close to the foothold of the Holy See, so that the two sides could still take care of each other. Leave a small fleet to help them deliver news and support each other for the future. The rest of the fleet returned to prepare for the second wave of the Jihadist Army. And at this time it was already more than December, that is, this naval battle was fought for more than half a month!

It was already February when the poor Dao received the above news in the territory, and I also received the news at about the same time as the kings of various countries, and the news that the Wa Kingdom was rich in magic crystals and precious seafood quickly spread throughout the continent under the deliberate indulgence of the Pope, and immediately became the only hot topic on the continent. One can imagine how richly the three empires and the Holy See will be rewarded as the first wave of attacking forces!

The whole continent is crazy because of this news, and the most crazy is definitely not the Han Kingdom, just because the surname of a big aristocratic family is suspected of being a traitor, so that the Han lost such a precious opportunity, the king was so angry that he almost went crazy, and after the other families heard the news, they were all about to regret it.

If the Long family was allowed to participate in the beginning, Poor Dao would be a well-deserved deputy commander of the coalition army, and with my command ability, as well as the strength of the Blue Dragon Legion and the Wild Dragon Army, it is not impossible to occupy a large island alone. In that case, even if they drink soup with me, they will be able to hug the mountain of gold at home. Where is it like now, where you can't get anything?

Obviously, the great Han made the greatest contribution in the battle of the orcs and received the largest number of troops, but because of the Ishihara family, seeing that Jinshan's wings flew away, the king and the people of several major families were about to hate the Ishihara family to death! Seeing Ishihara Kumaji every day, the first sentence of greeting was absolutely, "Your family is really not a spy, right?"

Ishihara Kumaji is so depressed now, he has the heart to die, but everyone is angry, although he is so angry that he doesn't dare to turn his face, which makes him almost schizophrenic. Hearing that the ministers had a meeting, the king wanted to ask him something, but before he could speak, Ishihara Kumji was so frightened that he knelt down and cried, and shouted loudly and aggrievedly, "I'm really not a spy!"

Although Ishihara Kumji was already pitiful like this, and the king and the others only gave him a few words of comfort, they gave him a hard blow in actual action. After the final negotiation between several big leaders and the king, the Ishihara family was disqualified from participating in the holy war, and the dragon family should be on top, and everything was decided by the poor road. What the king means is that I can mobilize any of the forces of the Great Han at will, as long as I can occupy any of the four large islands in the end, that's fine!

When the king's and grandfather's handwritten letterheads were handed over to Poor Dao, it was already almost March, and the second batch of troops of the Holy See had already set off for a short time.

I didn't know anything about the situation inside, so I took more than 100,000 people with me and touched them with black eyes.

So Poor Dao simply rejected the king's proposal, and told him clearly, I am sick, and I can't go! But he told my grandfather the truth, and if I go now, I am looking for death, and it is best to wait, and wait until the Japanese and the coalition army are almost lost before making a move. At that time, Quack! Someone else planted the tree, and I picked the peach!
