Chapter 402: Blow the horn of counterattack!
In mid-August, in the eastern part of the kingdom of Hadratta, in the steel city of Sertodne, Marquis of Ulysses had not been able to sleep well for more than a month.
Recently, the situation in the kingdom has been turbulent, and the speed of change is truly unbelievable.
Half a year ago, the lords of the kingdom were still standing in line to discuss the battle for the crown prince's throne, and Ulysses, as a neutral, was not very interested in who would be the king, after all, the decree from the royal capital had little impact on them, the border lords.
But he didn't expect that the second prince Hatar would have the audacity to collude with the notorious sorcerer, and even capture the king and kill King Bazel!
The move shocked the entire kingdom!
Although their new King claimed that it was the cardinal of the United Church of the Great Prince who had committed the horrific act of killing his father, and that he had ascended to the throne anyway, this clumsy excuse could not even fool the fools!
This move will inevitably provoke the wrath of the Holy See!
In view of this, Ulysses pretended to obey the call of Hattar and returned to the rule of the kingdom, but in fact united with some border nobles to report the news of the fall of the kingdom.
After Edwell led the crusade army to kill, Ulysses chose to welcome the king without hesitation!
He knew very well the power of the empire and the Holy See, although the believers of those evil gods could take advantage of their power for a moment and commit a tragedy of killing the king within the kingdom, but as long as the army of the Holy See was killed, they would be slaughtered in an instant!
"What's going on in the royal capital now? Hasn't the King of Ulysi, or the wizards moved? ”
Even so, the possibility of our mind is very small, because An Xiu Xinde is definitely stronger than the king!
Dressed in pajamas, Risis was extremely conspicuous under the city walls, but at that time, no one cared about the decency of the lord villain, because just below the horizon at the other end, a legion of more than 10,000 people was retreating towards the city of steel.
"In the city?! So slow? An Xiuxinsi's revenant soul stared at her, her eyes widened, the royal capital was not more than two hundred kilometers away, and there was no Earldom of Hansen in the middle, and there were no seven fortified cities and seventy villages and towns!
Will you continue to follow the instructions of the Holy See, or will you turn around and run into the arms of the new king......
At the moment of receiving the news, the whole person of Risis was devastated, and I have no reason to doubt that such a weak crusade army will experience a crushing defeat, and even believe that it will be the spies who have joined forces to make up stories to deceive themselves.
"We're in town right now! It's only ten kilometers away from the Iron City! The stout knight replied with a big heart.
In the back row were more than a dozen delicate-looking iron boxes, not much like the carriages of horse-drawn carriages, except that they were dragged by camels, and they could gallop freely under the narrow plains, and in front of them was a huge cannon with a hideous door.
"You must be too worried, Marquis of Risis." The little bishop seemed to see the cowardice of Risis, and said with a narrow sigh of relief. "You haven't received the revelation of the Lord yet, Admiral Lucia personally led the army to strangle the minions of the evil gods who have committed serious crimes in the kingdom, as long as you hold on for some time, you will have your will at your fingertips."
"When the time comes, you will show the Pope villain his merits, and he will be the last king of Hadrata!" The little bishop said categorically.
Risis was so convinced, but a month later, he received the news of a small defeat of the Holy See's crusade, and even the annihilation of the entire army......
"What about the rest of the legion? I guess it's going to be lost, right? Risis asked in a heated voice.
Risis instantly thought of the information he had obtained later, this alchemical creation, which was said to be smaller than a house, but could fly in the world, immediately rushed out, rode down the worst horse outside the manor, and rushed to the city wall in just seven minutes.
"Lord, let's ...... We're just ahead! The knight said in a slurch.
Dressed in pajamas, Risis paced in the small manor, and after a long time, he received the news of the return of the spies in his hands, and even had to change his clothes, so Risis hurriedly summoned us over, and asked very slowly.
If it was the first time he saw it, Anxiuxin would have thought it was a short spear, but according to the reports of the spies, the thing called the musket was an extremely weak long-distance witchcraft creation, which contained the power of thunder and flames, and could not nervously penetrate the protection of the iron armor within a hundred meters, so that the little Duke of Waikman was proud of the cavalry team and sank into the sand......
Risis immediately analyzed it, thinking about whether to open the door and surrender.
"Do you know where to go?" Risis frowned rather fullly, such a small legion retreat should be too likely to be hidden.
Sticking to the side of the losers is the secret of the Risis family's survival for hundreds of years, and it is the secret of breaking the strong......
I thought, but the little bishop of Hartald and the priesthood were all around, and those people were even slower to get the news than they were!
As a qualified nobleman, Risis is not mentally clean, whether he is a lowly assassin or a notorious wizard, as long as he can use it, I will occasionally refuse.
It was Risis who finally chose to wait and see, because in that month, the wizards who had lost the first battle had not made the slightest movement, which made me believe that it would be those evil god believers who were also hit hard in this war, and that was the one who dared to take a step out of the royal capital.
The 10,000 muskets followed on the right and left of the iron box, and the queue was very neat, and such a long queue could not be chaotic at all, holding a long wooden stick with a sharp knife tied to the top.
Could it be that the army of 10,000 people suddenly flew over?
"Returning to the lord villain, the army of these evil gods' minions has not left the royal city yet, and it is roughly estimated that there are less than 80,000 people, and they are divided into eight legions, two of which are temporarily known ......where to go," the sturdy knight half-knelt on the ground and reported loudly.
The only thing that relieved Risis was that I hadn't seen such a giant alchemical creation flying in the world.
Before it was confirmed that the news was wrong, Risis fell into a very small panic, and at the same time faced an important choice.
"Ahead?" Risis was stunned.
Not to mention the crushing forces of the Holy See that have experienced a crushing defeat, let alone us!
As for the belief in God, of course it is not, but it is less, and before the defeat of the crusading army, that piety was even more!
