Chapter 203: The Third Force

After the wedding, Akali also gave the next order, announcing that the work of Athens had come to an end, and the next step would be to focus on further eliminating Trist's vital forces, and began to evacuate most of the army one after another.

It's just that......

"What?" shouted Elena and Wallace together. "Your Royal Highness, now that the enemy is present, you will let the two of us preside over the restoration work in Athens?"

"What, what's the problem?" Akali looked at the two of them lightly. "Don't think that only the front line is the focus, how can the front line be victorious without a solid rear! Elena, Wallace, the city of Athens will be handed over to you, if you can't repair it as well as before the earthquake, don't blame Princess Ben for not being merciful!"

“...... Yes, Your Highness the Princess. ”

Now, there is no room for refutation between the two of them, in fact, everyone present knows that the so-called work of presiding over the restoration of the city of Athens is simply a pretense, Akali's original intention is to let the two newlyweds spend a stable honeymoon in this war-torn era, so they forced the two people to preside over the restoration work here, or, even if it is the reconstruction of the city, where is the need for such a rejuvenation?

Eventually, everything was arranged in Athens, and Akali returned to Brandenburg with most of his men and began to discuss the next step of the battle.

"Report that Her Royal Highness the Princess, Mademoiselle Shylock Durand, leader of the rebel army of Marseille, has sent you a letter. A ranger girl quickly ran in and handed a letter to Akali.

"Sherlock, Duran?" Yunhai didn't have much of an impression of the name.

"That's right, Marseille, there has always been a force against Trist, called the Marseille rebel army, mainly composed of local peasants, when their strength was at its peak, they even hit the city of Paris for a time, and expelled the Duke of Diño, the speaker of the Council of Europa, which is also a force that Trist is particularly afraid of, so to speak, the third force in the entire European battlefield, outside of Trist and us. Akali explained.

"So powerful? This Sherlock? Duran, who is sacred?" Yun Hai didn't expect that there was such a powerful person.

Shylock was born in an ordinary peasant family in Marseille, but since she was a child, she has a very strong faith in Christianity, and later, with her outstanding ability, at the age of sixteen, she became the youngest female priest of Notre Dame Cathedral, which once caused a sensation throughout Europe, with Trist's iron hooves all over the European continent, Charlotte fled Paris overnight, returned to her hometown to raise the flag of rebellion, founded the Marseille rebel army, has been fighting with Trist indomitably, and now she has become the first female paladin in history, with high prestige among the people。 ”

Akali seemed to be very familiar with this Sherlock, and recited her experience backwards.

"Then what will happen when he comes to you this time?" Yunhai asked.

"I don't know, I'm an old friend of her, and from what I know, if she writes to me, there should be something she needs us to help with. Akali opened the letter, and her face suddenly became solemn.

"What's going on?" everyone around them wondered, what could make Akali so embarrassed?

"Let's all take a look. With that, Akali handed Sherlock's letter to the sea of clouds.

It turned out that Trist saw that Akali's power was getting stronger and stronger, and he gradually occupied half of Europe, and finally began to sit still, and decided to mobilize all his troops to fight Akali to the death, but if he wanted to do so, he had to solve his worries first, that is, the Marseille rebel army led by Shylock.

So, Trist mobilized a large force led by the Duke of Paris, Diño, totaling more than 100,000 people, to jointly attack the Marseille rebels, and finally, Shylock and his party of about 8,000 people were besieged in the small city of Orleans, the situation was very critical, this letter was sent to Akali by Shylock's personal bodyguard at the risk of death, and the current situation must be even more critical.

"Is this so......" Yun Hai silently calculated possible countermeasures in his heart. "To be honest, I don't care about the life or death of the Marseille rebels, but if Diño's army of more than 100,000 terrorists really exterminates them, the next unlucky one will definitely be us. Now we are fully armed, and we only have 60,000 or 70,000 men, and we still have to divide our troops to garrison a large area, and we also need manpower to rebuild Athens, so if we confront it head-on, it is really ......."

"Either way, we have to save them, or we won't be able to deal with Diño's army. Akali was the first to show her attitude. "Let's talk about how we can get to them?"

"Let me start with my opinion, Your Highness the Princess. Reinhardt, who had always been upright, was the first to jump. "In my opinion, we must concentrate our superior forces to open the encirclement of Orleans and get Miss Sherlock out of the encirclement, and we must move quickly, otherwise the city of Orleans will fall. ”

Reinhardt seemed very nervous about the situation on the side of the Marseille rebels, worry and worry were written on his face, and he spoke very quickly, but the people around him secretly laughed.

"I mean, you stunned boy, you're not worried about the survival of the Marseille rebels, but the life and death of Miss Sherlock in your heart, right?"

"Say...... What do you say, Your Highness Princess!" Reinhardt stammered, his fair and handsome face flushed. "I just don't want to weaken the strength against Trist, why worry about Miss Sherlock, you can't joke, she doesn't ......"

"Yes, she doesn't, but you do. "Akali doesn't give up.

"I ...... I ......" Reinhardt was completely speechless.

"Harleinhardt, I think you'll admit it, so that my sister can still find a way to help you, or you won't have the slightest chance!" Caterina laughed too.

"I didn't...... Miss Sherlock is already a priest and can't possibly ......"

Here is a detail, in the Catholic Church, clergy are not allowed to marry, so Sherlock, as a female priest, is naturally not allowed to marry, but unfortunately, Reinhardt, as a child of the nobility, is obsessed with such a peasant girl, and it is not easy for others to say it.

"Okay, let's get back to business, don't let this delay. Akali coughed lightly, looked at Reinhardt, who was already eager to find a crack in the ground, and shook her head with some sympathy. "Is there a better way for someone else to do it?"

"I don't think Reinhardt's plan is advisable. "This time it was White who spoke, although he is a mage, but he is also very strategic, and he can often make the eyes of battle-hardened veterans like Akali shine. "We are already outnumbered, and if we fight head-on, we will definitely lose, so I suggest sending a squad with strong individual combat ability to infiltrate Orleans City and rescue the main members. ”

"If this doesn't work, can the eight thousand soldiers just ignore it?" Eve is still the same from the perspective that everyone can survive. "Akali, I think we should let everyone out safely. ”

"Whether it's a head-on breakthrough or sending a team to infiltrate, such methods have merits, but they also have obvious weaknesses. Chris frowned. "There's too much to juggle, and we're really too understaffed, so do you want to bring Alina and Wallace back?"

"Akali, either let me go, although my strength is only 10%, but it shouldn't be a big problem to eliminate these ordinary soldiers. Alma volunteered.

The hearts of the others couldn't help but tremble, where is this not a big problem, it is simply a slaughter like mowing grass, a few days ago, a small force invaded Athens, Alma alone took just over ten minutes, and wiped out hundreds of opponents, and the corpses were everywhere they passed, which really frightened everyone present.

Everyone has put forward several proposals, but they all have obvious flaws, that is, they cannot reach a consensus.

Akali frowns, but notices that Yunhai and Fluttershy are surprisingly not making a sound, but are whispering in the corner, as if discussing something, and she is curious and walks over quietly.

"I see, we still have to let him in, otherwise what if we can't hold on to this?" Yunhai said in a low voice.

"Heck, as long as we move fast enough, there will be no problem over there, but...... Also, you're doing it a little safer, so are there any other things you need to be aware of?"

"What are you muttering here?" said Akali with a sudden tap on the shoulder.

The two of them were startled, and after finding out that it was Akali, they patted their chests and relaxed.

"That's right, Akali, we're talking about a new tactic to see if it works. Yunhai said.

"What tactic, is it assassination again?" Akali wondered.

"I've inquired, this Diño's strength is quite strong, I don't think it can be assassinated, but we can use another way. Yunhai smiled mysteriously.

"Don't sell it, tell me quickly, I'm going to die. Akali shook Yunhai's shoulders.

"Don't shake me, I'm dizzy......" Yunhai's eyes had already appeared swirl. "Fluttershy, help me......"

"I'm not going to save you......" Fluttershy chuckles. "Akali, the result of our discussion, to put it simply, is to surprise and attack it unprepared. ”

"Huh, surprise, surprise?" Akali was confused by the new word.

"Uh, you're finally willing to stop......" Yunhai shook his head weakly. "Ahem...... Fluttershy, lay out the map, and I'll talk about the tactic in detail. ”
