1343 The Holy Maiden (5)

The fat man returned from the waterfall behind the top of the mountain, all along the way were black-armored Southern Army soldiers, patrols came and went, tightly sealed the entrances to various roads, the Southern Army patrols with spears and shields in their hands, continued from the top of the mountain to the mountainside, the entire Temple Mountain was like a huge tower of gold, there were a total of 4 roads spiraling from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and now they were completely controlled by the army, not to mention a person, even a fly had to be caught and looked at a few times

, is there a suspicion of absconding

"Please report your identity, sir"

A patrol team saw the fat man, although his eyes paused on the white thorn flower armor on the fat man's body, they continued to walk towards him, led by a veteran in his thirties, with a stern face with a fierceness, he knew that the identity of every guard was above the squadron leader,

"Imperial Guard Six, Three, Four!"

The fat man reached out and took out a guard card with a golden edge from his pocket and handed it over, in the latest military system promulgated by the empire, all officers above the squadron leader level will have a military card, the local flag regiment is brown, which means the earth, the navy is blue, which means the ocean, and the main battle flag regiment is red, which is the color of blood, only the guard's is gold,

The veteran took the golden identity tag, looked at it in surprise, handed it back to the fat man and asked, "I'm sorry, can you ask the chief what he is doing here?" because this is a key area, and according to convention, we must pay attention to everyone who approaches!" "I'm just here to judge how many people there are!"

The fat man smiled slightly, raised his head, and pretended to glance at the location of the mountain temple, in the middle of the mountain road, on the wide flat of the temple that was originally used to house Statunko, it was now covered with a whole group of soldiers of the Imperial Army's Southern Army who were ready to go, and the cold light of the spears flickered, like a huge forest of light.

Thousands of soldiers are arranged here, murderous, and the powerful military appearance brings people a slaughter like the autumn wind.

Even in this scorching May, it makes people feel extremely cold from the heart, the intervention of the army, the strength of the empire is completely in control of the situation at this moment, and the so-called theocratic advantage of the temple is completely a joke of self-amusement,

Red Moon's death filled the fat man's heart with grief and indignation. If it weren't for Parschena's bitter pleading, the fat man wouldn't mind using the entire temple high-level to accompany the burial of the red moon, anyway, there are many people who have grievances against the empire among these people, and there must be wrongs in killing them all, but if you kill one by one, there will definitely be a slip through the net, and the temple on the mountainside was originally a residence arranged by the temple for easy monitoring, and it is located in the middle line of the holy mountain. It can go up and down, like a pass, maybe the temple itself never dreamed of, which is equivalent to providing an excellent entry position for the imperial army.

In the eyes of soldiers, this terrain only needs to use a small number of troops to achieve the goal of mastering the overall situation.

Hundreds of guards gathered after the explosion. It was from here that it quickly divided into two teams, one of which consisted of the most elite 20 squadron leaders, and swept away the leaves in the autumn wind. Like a fierce tiger, it went straight to the mountain where the upper echelons of the temple were located, and in the shortest possible time, the entire upper echelons of the temple were controlled.

The other team quickly laid down a defensive line on the waist, the road leading from the upper level to the bottom of the mountain was completely blocked, and the mountain could not know the situation on the mountain, and the swift action of the guards was like a huge gate, cutting off the connection between the upper and lower parts of the entire holy mountain.

The loud explosion of the temple at the top of the hill shattered the tranquility of the holy place, and in the panic, the crowd below poured up the mountain path, and some of the Mamunuk knights who lived below tried to storm the defensive line arranged by the guards, but under the strong and dense crossbow confrontation of the guards, these Mamunuks finally stopped,

"What now?"

The number of Mamunuk knights was between one hundred and fifty people, and the black pressure was crowded on the mountain road, they were wearing white holy armor, and they were carrying shields wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, and there were marks of the Sky Temple on their chests and shields, "Stop immediately, or we will be welcome!" The stern voice of the guards came from the front, and in the black night it was like the wind blowing through the rocks, and countless torches were quickly raised, illuminating the situation of the mountain road in front of them.

The black-armored guards were lined up in several rows, holding infantry crossbows in their hands, the bowstrings of the crossbows had been pulled to the apex, and the cold light of the arrow clusters was reflected by the torches, which made the heart feel more and more cold, and the elite of the empire who conquered the entire continent suddenly showed their edge, so that the chaotic Mamunuk knights on the opposite side did not know how to adapt for a while

"Let's wait until dawn to take a look!" someone said this in the confusion, and the crowd fell silent for a moment, most of the temple munuks were from the high nobility, they were either followers of a certain priest, or retinues,

Because they are self-equipped, the armor on their bodies is very fine, but the individualism pursued by the Mamunuk knights also makes them lack a unified dispatch in the face of such an unexpected situation.

The arrogance and self-righteous style of the aristocracy made most of them go their own way, and compared to the 60 murderous guards who blocked the road, the Mamunouk knights, who looked sad and angry, even if they had a numerical advantage, hesitated one by one because of the lack of unified orders from above,

No one knows what is happening in the night, but one thing is certain, storming the Imperial Guard, which is tantamount to rebellion,

In such a chaotic situation, even if they are shot on the spot, no one will stand up and say a word, and once the big hat of rebellion is buckled, not only will they die, but even the families and relatives behind them will not be spared.

20,000 soldiers arrived in the early hours of the morning, so that the control of the Holy Mountain was completely in the hands of the Empire, but this was also the problem that made the fat man feel thorny, he originally hoped to be able to deal with it gently, but in the blink of an eye, the sword had been drawn, and the Empire's war knife had been raised, so naturally there was no reason to return to the sheath without blood!

Seeing the fat man coming from the mountain road in the distance, the southern governor Statunko, who was sorting out the queue, hurriedly greeted him, and said eagerly: "Your Majesty, the army has been assembled, we are all Wikibians, and there is absolutely no problem in loyalty! As long as Your Majesty gives an order, we can do it!"

"Do it, why do you think like this" The fat man's eyebrows frowned slightly, the thick killing intent here made the fat man who was thinking about what to do a little surprised, the southern governor seemed to be too eager, this is not like Statunko's usual style "Majesty" Statunko looked around with some hesitation, and said in a low voice" I have ordered the Southern Army in all parts of Salander to be put into combat readiness, and from today onwards, all within a hundred miles of the Holy Land will be blocked, and the army is ready to remove this cancer for His Majesty at any time! Even if the Temple is erased from the map, it will not be a big problem."

"How to eradicate it? kill all of them without leaving one?" the fat man glanced at the corners of his mouth, and he found that after the Battle of Normandy, his former southern governor, who had a somewhat gentle personality, seemed to have begun to show his own characteristic iron-blooded style,

Just like in the Black Forest, this subordinate carried out the order to exterminate the clan without the slightest hesitation

"Do you want to stop here?"

Statunko blinked unexpectedly, this is not like the usual style of the fat man, the explosion of the temple undoubtedly slapped the falcon in the face, according to His Majesty's temperament, it is impossible not to pounce and kick a few times

The fat man looked at the top of the mountain road with deep eyes and said, "It's easy to clean up these hundreds of people in the temple, but can you also catch and cut off all the roots that continue from the temple? Everyone here, there are more Salander people behind them, and every sacrifice represents the hearts of Salander's people, and it only takes one knife to kill people, but to cut off these people's hearts, how many knives are you going to use? 10,000, 100,000, or 1 million......?"

Statunenko's face was embarrassed, and he also felt that he was a little out of order, from the heart, Salander was also his brainchild, from participating in the battle of Salander, to finally becoming the owner of Saland, although with the support of the fat man, but to develop a half-dilapidated island into such a thriving scene now, Statunenko's energy invested in this area is also huge, the explosion of the Sky Temple, it is indeed beyond his expectations, at present, if you want to calm the anger of His Majesty the Falcon, it is necessary to sacrifice some people,

Rather than waiting for the whole incident to expand indefinitely, it is better to directly strangle this crisis in the Holy Mountain, after all, there are at most five or six hundred people here, compared to the millions of Salanders, if he can let the current peaceful and prosperous scene continue, he feels that even if he is saddled with the infamy of a butcher, he feels that it is worth it,

As long as the wrath of the Falcon does not descend on the land, although this may cause Salande to waver, Statunko believes that most of the Salander people still want to continue to live as they are, and no one wants a large-scale war

"It's not all against us!" To his surprise, the fat man turned his head and looked at the hundreds of temple sacrifices who were forced to kneel there on the top of the mountain, black and oppressive, like a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered under the suppression of the army,

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "The situation is already under control, it doesn't make a difference between earlier and later,

For the existence of the temple like this, if we don't move it, if we want to be clean and thorough, isn't the temple always speculating about our bottom line?

Then I'll tell them directly, we have no interest in the temple, but if anyone wants to rely on this to challenge the authority of the empire, they are killing themselves!" "What does Majesty mean ......?" Statunko looked at the fat man's back and felt a chill, "There will be a list handed over to you tomorrow! The people above and their related people will not be left!" The fat man turned around, and his eyebrows flashed murderously (to be continued. )
