Chapter 1338: The Black Band in Action (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"If it wasn't good, you wouldn't have come to me," Lord Lorraine said with a smile as he looked at Batusta across from him, looking nonchalant
Looking at him, it seems that he doesn't take these Semitic rebels too seriously at all
"No, the lord underestimated our determination too much" Batusta said in a deep voice with a solemn expression, "No matter how difficult the situation is, our determination to overthrow the undead clan and the undead high priest will not change
This ......"
Speaking of this, he paused, and then said meaningfully: "Isn't this our common goal?"
Lorraine grinned, and then asked softly, "I don't know who you mean by us?"
Batusta straightened his back and said solemnly and proudly: "Of course, including, sir, Lord Arcatarithius, I and our 800,000 rebel army"
"Tsk, 800,000, a lot of people" Lorraine smacked his lips and sighed, "You won't count the wives and children of the rebels, will you?"
I said the old tower, everyone came out to mix, don't say these meaningless words
Frankly, I don't think you have much power, and if you are useful, it will not be you who will come to my door, but I will come to your door."
As he spoke, he shook his head again and again, and was a little disdainful of Batusta's bragging tricks
Although Lorraine is now in the Terran continent, the Semitic continent has always been a dumping ground for various luxury goods such as luxury carriages, high-end cosmetics, fashion jewelry, ・・・・・・ and so on produced by the Flying Eagle Company
And the CIA, the Gestapo and other intelligence agencies under the Flying Eagle Company used the smuggling channels between the two continents to infiltrate the Semitic continent into a huge colander
Although in the two Semitic capitals of Thunder's Castle and Flash's Arcaderin's Imperial City, the CIA agents are not very active because of the presence of dark mages and lichs, but in other Semitic regions, the agents can basically be called unimpeded
And even if the local Semitic officials knew, they often turned a blind eye
The simple reason is that their families also need those smuggled luxury goods to maintain their luxurious life
Secondly, those smuggling syndicates often have shares of a certain bigwig, or even several bigwigs, and their backgrounds are extremely deep
Finally, the SS was not vegetarian either
There used to be a stunned young man who wanted to be promoted and wanted to go crazy and wanted to lift the lid, but then he was blown up in the street
Since then, no one wants to be a hero anymore
Therefore, through the agents lurking inside the Semitic tribe, Lorraine can easily understand the affairs of the Semitic people, even better than the two Semitic prime ministers - when those officials write reports, not only will they fill their reports with water, but they will often deceive and conceal them, but this is not the case when the agents of the Flying Eagle Group report to Neyan
Through the information on Guò, Lorraine also knew about the rebel army in detail
The leader of the rebels was the famous Semitic rebel general - Arcatrithius
They have been entrenched in the remote mountains of the Spirits, fighting against the undead and the regular armies of the Semitic people
Although the rebel army led by him claimed to be one million, there were only two or three hundred thousand people available, and most of the rebel army lacked weapons and had no formal training, and was a group of scum with less than five combat effectiveness
The rebels lived in harsh conditions, lacked food and clothing, and had no medicine or medical treatment, and the necromancers often cleared the areas where they were entrenched, unleashing plagues, making their survival very difficult
The real usable soldiers in the hands of Arcatrisis are only twenty or thirty thousand, otherwise he would not have fought for thirty years and can only barely protect himself, this is still his high ability, and how many rebels have been killed in the same period
If he dared to go out of the mountains, he would have let the regular army and necromancers kill even the scum, and the lich alone would be enough to destroy them a dozen times
Lorraine's assessment of them is only a small lot, just like the al-Qaeda elements in the mountains in later generations, attacking a checkpoint today, knocking out a police station tomorrow, or kidnapping a few foreigners to blackmail the government
The regular army came and ran faster than the rabbits
Even if these people make trouble for a hundred years, they can't do anything
In such a world war in which both sides fought with all their might, this Semitic rebel army did not play much of a role
Batusta's face showed a hint of annoyance, but in a flash, he smiled and said, "The lord must have underestimated us too much."
Lorraine shook his head and said, "Old Tower, you think too much, I don't mean to underestimate you, it's just ......"
He paused for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "At this stage, we don't have the idea of cooperating with you, nor do we have the ability
Not to mention how much money and supplies I have to provide you with in order to arm you, even if I don't care about spending it, things can't be shipped
If it passes, it will not necessarily fall into your hands."
There is an ocean between the two sides, and at this moment, the Semitic fleet that is transporting troops to and fro is touched by them, it is definitely a meat bun and a dog that will never return
Although Lord Luo is now a well-known nouveau riche, he will not throw the precious resources in his hands into the water
Batusta smiled wryly, he didn't have any intention of knocking a pen out of Lorraine's hand
"However, it's not non-negotiable," Lorraine looked at Batusta's expression, changed his tone, and said with a smile that he did not close the door to negotiation
Lorraine was just playing the old trick of trying to get away with it, and these guys were entrenched in the rear of the Semitic people, and they always had a little effect
But Lord Lorraine had to make them understand that even if they cooperated, they were in control
It's not that as soon as these people come over, they will look up to them
To put it simply, it's about getting them to listen to themselves
Batusta was silent for a moment, and then suddenly laughed, not only not disappointed, but very satisfied
His abnormal expression made Lorraine frown, and secretly said in his heart: There is something strange
"Sure enough, ・・・・・・sure enough," Batusta smiled and muttered in a low voice, "Sure enough, as Marshal Arcataritheus said, we can't get into your eyes."
Well......"
Batusta raised his head, looked directly at Lorraine, and said, "If I say that we also include a large part of the Semitic generals and officials who want to get rid of the tyranny of the high priest and eliminate the independence and freedom of the great Semit, is the lord any interested?"
Lorraine sat up straight from the couch and looked at Batustaran for a few seconds before smiling and falling back onto the couch
"Let's ・・・・・・" Batusta was about to speak, when suddenly a loud alarm bell rang outside
The two couldn't help but be stunned
At this time, the housekeeper ran in quickly, and said nervously: "My lord, the demon is here again, you should hurry into the basement to avoid it."
Lorraine looked up and saw that it was already dark at the moment that the sky was outside, and today happened to be the time when the thunder could not move, and the undead came to the ring once every three days
Lorraine waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, you just turn off the lights and I'll just come out."
The butler stopped in front of Lorraine and said in fear: "My lord, there is danger outside"
"It's okay, the war fortress in the air can't see the situation on the ground, just rest assured," Lorraine walked out the door
Batusta shrugged, jumped up, and followed
There was a fast-moving point of light in the night sky, like fireflies hovering over everyone's heads
Every now and then the light of artillery fire lit up and then extinguished, and after a few seconds, the rumbling sound returned to the ground
The undead and the Maple Leaf Danlin people staged dangerous chase and killing games in the air
Although it was not the first day that Batusta had seen this kind of large-scale air battle with more than 200 war fortresses, he still couldn't help but feel surging when he saw the figures and artillery fire of the war fortresses in the air with his own eyes
This is the real war between the giants
As an aspiring general, who does not dream that he can master such a powerful air force in his hands, vertical and horizontal, and surprise the situation
Watch as the enemy is wiped out in their own fire
The one who has such a powerful power in the world is the High Priest of the Undead, the three deans of the Maple Leaf Danlin, and the hateful Lord of Lorraine in front of him
But without him Batusta, in the future, there can be no him~!
Not to mention the endless new weapons in Naian, artillery, grenade trains, battleships...... The Ruman Empire has an army of one million, and the Flying Eagle Group is invincible in the world・・・・・・
And they only have tens of thousands of old and weak soldiers squatting in the ravine and gnawing old corn... Uh, the army of 800,000 tigers and wolves
The contrast of strength with Lorraine is huge, and the two sides are not equal partners
Suddenly thinking about this made Batusta very uncomfortable, he twisted his body uncomfortably, looked at the battle in the sky silently, and secretly said in his heart: It turns out that in the face of strong strength, this little strategy can't change fate
At this moment, a powerful flame suddenly erupted in the night sky, and in the light of the fire, only half of the remnants of the war fortress of the undead were left burning, falling from the sky, and a few seconds later there was a loud crash, and then a huge dark cloud rose from the ground
Lorraine turned to look at Batusta and said, "What did you say about you just now?"
Batusta took a deep breath, collected the feelings in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "We can provide you with information from within the Semitic army to help you achieve the final victory
With our help, the war can be fought for at least one year less, you think, how many fewer human beings will die, and how much war expenses you can have left"
Lorraine shrugged his shoulders and said secretly in his heart: I can't sue you, I actually made money by fighting this battle
As long as the flames of war do not burn in Ruman's country, the black-hearted capital of his family would like the Semitic to move around the mainland for two more years
The lord turned his head to look at him, his eyes shining in the night, and said, "Your conditions"
Batusta looked at the war fortress flying overhead, and said, "We want a Semitic Semit, at the very least, a Semitic Semit."
Lorraine smiled heartily and said, "You have a big appetite, where are you?"
Don't tell sù that you are doing this for the sake of the country and the nation."
Batusta had a well-deserved expression and said, "I just hope that after the victory, Lord Lorraine will remember our black band for a piece of credit."
They will stop playing such a dangerous game of rebellion in their belts, and naturally they will not refuse to enjoy the fruits of victory after victory
"Black Band・・・・・・" Lorraine nodded, "Now, can you tell me who do you have? I need to know who I'm working with?"
Batusta shook his head decisively and said, "Sir, forgive me, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that their identities are very sensitive."
I can tell you for sure that among us are the powerful officials of the military center, the high-ranking generals at the front, the high-ranking officials in the government, and the royal family of our clan."
"The lineup is strong enough," Lorraine smacked her lips and sighed, "As long as you don't do such a stupid thing as assassinating the High Priest of the Undead, I think we can still work together."
Batusta let out a long sigh of relief, his mission was finally completed, and as for what would happen in the future, it was up to Lord Lorraine
However, Lord Lorraine has four girlfriends who are Semitic, and three of them are of genuine Semitic royal blood
At critical moments, they can also take the lady route, believing that Adeling and them will not fail to take care of their Semitic compatriots, and even have a more daring plan in their dark band
"Happy cooperation~!" Batusta held out his hand, and Lorraine shook him heavily
"One last question," Lorraine said, looking at him, "are you so sure we can defeat the High Priest of the Dead?"
Batusta spread his hands and said, "Even if Renying can't defeat the High Priest of the Undead, do we have any other choice?"
Besides, I've been on the human continent for a few months, and I've been to Nai'an, under your rule, and the non-stop roar of the factory day and night is something I'll never forget
Now, I believe that your strength is enough to defeat the undead~!"
Lorraine nodded slightly, and said, "Someone will talk to you about specific cooperation, I look forward to your expression."
Batusta nodded solemnly, took a step back and put on his hat, and turned to leave the manor
Watching his tall figure disappear into the night, Vera hugged Lorraine's arm and blinked her big bright eyes, and said, "Young Master, do you believe them?"
"Of course not," Lorraine shrugged with a smile and said, "Professional things will be left to professional people, and it is the company's job to distinguish the real from the fake, I think Belen will take care of him, as for us......"
Lorraine smiled maliciously, picked up Vera's legs, picked her up, strode into the room, and said with a wicked smile: "The good night is short"
The sound of killing inside and outside the city of Delong shook the sky
The Semitic army besieged the city of Delong for a week, and the water surrounding the huge city of Delong was impassable
Flags were like forests, and countless black crowds rushed towards the walls of Delong with a shout, and when they looked down from the sky, they were as dense as an ant colony surrounded by sugar cubes
The army attacking the city of Delong carried all sorts of flags, tiger heads, wolf heads, pine trees, oak trees, roses, tulips...... And so on and so forth
But among them is the Lightning Banner without Semite
The lightning banner was all honestly at the back of the battlefield, and at this moment, the besieging army was all composed of human vassals
Above and below the walls, the Templars of the Holy See Legion of Bayer fought bravely under the banner of the Golden Cross
Arrows rained down on the walls, spilling down into the attacking crowd
The man in front of him fell screaming with an arrow, and the man behind stepped over his corpse, screaming madly and continuing to charge
The enemies in front of them were terrifying, but the Semitic warlords behind them were even more terrifying
The High Priest of the Dead inflicts the most brutal punishment on those who escape, whether they are human nobles or ordinary soldiers
Those who escape from the battle will have their skin burned by those terrifying dark mages, and slowly melt away their muscles and bones under the dark spells
The tortured person will watch his body decay and melt, and spend days in wailing and dying, until his internal organs are exposed
Under such cruel methods, these human vassals who had taken refuge in the Semitic tribe would rather rush forward and die under the arrows of the defenders of Delong than run back
Seeing that they were about to rush into the trench outside the city, the Holy See officer who was squatting in the trench waiting for them shouted loudly, "Throw grenades, brothers~!"
The soldiers of the Papal Legion eagerly drew their wooden-handled grenades from their belts
In each wooden box with grenades, the correct use of the grenade is thoughtfully illustrated behind the lid, so that even illiterate soldiers can quickly understand it
Unscrew the back cover, puncture the wax paper, pull out the drawstring inside the wooden handle, put the rope loop at one end of the drawstring on your fingers, and pull out the drawstring, at this time the grenade will emit smoke, and then throw ~!
There are only four patterns to make the usage clear
Even soldiers who have never used it can understand it once they read it
Cardinal Sandos also specially organized the soldiers to use tools such as hammers, did simulated training, and also let them watch live ammunition throwing, and the soldiers were deeply impressed
At the same time, the officer reminded loudly and hoarsely on the side: "Remember to pull out the drawstring, pull out the drawstring~!"
The tail of the grenade immediately began to smoke after pulling the drawstring, and there was no need to warn them at this moment, they also knew that the thing in their hands was going to explode in seven seconds
The soldiers threw the grenade out of the trench with excited flicks of their hands
The white-smoking grenade landed in the charging crowd, making a snorting sound and exploding as the human vassals watched strangely
The shrapnel shattered into more than 200 pieces was scattered everywhere, easily penetrating the human body, tearing through the musculature and bones
The crowd was so dense that several people around the grenade almost hit all the shrapnel,
In the violent explosion, they were immediately blown into red bloody people, and even revealed Sensen's white bones
The sudden explosion made the pace of these people charge suddenly, and this kind of thing that can explode is still flying out of the trench in a steady stream
The soldiers of the human puppet army were screaming as they were bombed, and the remaining soldiers immediately fled without hesitation
But then, the horn of the Semitic rear sounded urging the attack
Behind the battle line, on the roof of a small three-story building dozens of meters away from the city wall, two snipers dressed in tattered camouflage uniforms like beggars were lying on the roof, calmly watching the battlefield in front of them through the brick cracks in front of them
