Chapter 382: Archbishop
Two hundred miles northwest of Fengcheng, the wolf Juxu Mountain, is the holy place of the Xiongnu for a long time.
Two hundred years ago, Wolf Juxu Mountain was once attacked by Huo Quzhi, and Huo Qubing also made unparalleled military exploits. But even so, the Xiongnu's devotion to Wolf Juxu Mountain remained undiminished.
At this moment, the wolf Juxu Mountain is surrounded by smoke and dust, the neighing of war horses comes and goes, and the black and oppressive Hun warriors are all over the field, like a wave that sweeps the world.
Almost all the Xiongnu tribes have gathered here, because a major event has just happened within the Xiongnu.
A powerful tribal leader, the Khan Khan, with the help of his new national advisor, defeated the previous khan in one fell swoop and became the new ruler of the steppe.
This tribal gathering is to decide this matter.
In the middle of these tens of thousands of people, halfway up the Wolf Juxu Mountain, a large rough and strong tent stands continuously, where the Kharukan tribe is located.
Among these tents, a large white tent stood out, and the Hun warriors around them avoided this large tent far away, because inside the tent was the new national teacher of the Khan Khan, who had cast strange spells on the battlefield many times to turn the tide of the battle in one fell swoop.
In private, the Hun warriors called this national teacher the hand of the devil.
At this moment, in the big white tent, two people knelt on the ground, one was burly and tall, and the other was thin, they were the two fanatics who had fought with Wu Ming in Fengcheng.
Above them, on a large chair sat an old man, dressed in a gray robe, with a wrinkled face that looked almost like a fossil.
The old man looked down at the two kneeling down below, and a wave of anger flashed in his cloudy eyes: "Finn, Stella, what is your mission to Fengcheng this time?"
The faces of the two kneeling down changed at the same time, and the thin Finn said in panic: "Lord Bishop ordered us to go to Fengcheng to take down the heads of the generals of the Han army, to suppress the arrogance of the various tribes under the mountain!"
The thin old man raised his right hand slightly, and an invisible force in the air spread outward, and the two people below were out of breath.
"Where is the head of the Han general?"
"Please forgive our incompetence...... Your Excellency"
Finn's body trembled, and he could barely withstand this invisible force: "There was some accident, and we didn't succeed. ”
The archbishop's hand froze, and the anger in his eyes was even greater.
"As the supreme knight of the Hidden Holy See, blessed by the Holy Light, and given the name of the Apocalypse, you have not been able to retrieve the head of a mortal...... It's a disgrace to the Holy Light!"
The burly Stella hurriedly spoke: "Lord Bishop, that person in the front city is difficult to deal with, and he also said the name 'Zeatic'!"
The archbishop showed a look of astonishment: "Zeatic is the name used by the Orthodox Church to slander us, how can he know! Could it be that he is an Orthodox Christian? Tell me what happened!"
The two who knelt down told me what happened to Wu Ming.
At the end of the day, Fein added a few words: "Lord Bishop, when we retreated, we captured a soldier on the city wall, and under torture, we learned that this army was only a thousand people, and it was not the garrison of Fengcheng, but the one who escorted the princess of the Han Dynasty to make peace with the Xiongnu. ”
"Princess and pro?"
The archbishop pondered for a long time, then turned his head to look to the side: "Concorstein, Dies, come here." ”
Two more burly figures came out of the shadows on one side, came to the old man, and knelt on the ground.
Looking down at the four people in front of him, the archbishop nodded: "The four of you are named the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the Supreme Knights of the Holy See, and you have followed me all the way to the edge of this desolate world, and your loyalty and faith are worthy of boasting to the world." ”
The four people below knelt on the ground and did not make a sound, all of them listened patiently.
The archbishop's voice became a little high-pitched: "Only the hidden papacy is the orthodoxy of Rome! The Orthodox Church expelled us with the help of secular forces, but the light will never be extinguished! I will definitely lead you back to Rome and reclaim the glory and light that belongs to us!"
The faces of the people below showed excitement, but the archbishop raised his hand slightly, signaling them to be quiet.
"Taking control of the Xiongnu army is our first step, and although we helped the Khan to successfully rebel and eliminate the royal court, he is not yet recognized by all the tribes and cannot become the Khan who rules the entire Xiongnu. ”
Stella, who fell to his knees, snorted: "Those who are not convinced, just kill them all!"
The archbishop shook his head: "Kelu Khan now lacks an official title, as long as he gets the princess of the Han Dynasty, it is equivalent to being recognized by the Han Dynasty, then the other tribes have no reason to oppose him anymore." Then we will be able to lead this fierce army back to Rome and reclaim our glory!"
The four people who knelt down below suddenly looked happy, although they were the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse of the Hidden Holy See, they were powerless to resist the powerful Orthodox Church, and they were expelled along with the Pope, and finally fell into the land of the Huns.
The Huns were warlike by nature, and after a period of observation, the archbishop finally found a tribal leader named Koru Khan, and the two sides formed an alliance.
After that, the archbishop began to carry out his plan, helping Kru Khan defeat the Xiongnu Shan Yu and becoming the new leader of the Xiongnu.
There were many tribes of the Xiongnu, and most of the tribes currently gathered in the Wolf Juxu Mountain did not agree with the succession of Khan to the throne of Khan.
Now the dozens of tribes around the Wolf Juxu Mountain are still unified and have constant conflicts with each other.
The Khan already has power, but he does need the name of righteousness.
As long as he marries the princess of the Han Dynasty, he can make the Khan gain greater prestige and rightfully become the king of the Xiongnu.
The burly Stella stood up suddenly: "Lord Bishop, let's go to Fengcheng and capture the princess of the Han Dynasty back!"
The archbishop sat on the spot and waved his hand: "No need, they originally sent the princess to make peace, send a team to Fengcheng to bring the princess of the Han Dynasty back, now the various tribes of the Huns under the mountain are ready to move, you all stay here to prevent accidents." ”
"Yes!"
The four people below responded at the same time and fell to their knees.
The archbishop nodded, then looked down.
"In the name of the Holy Spirit, the Lord and the Father, I grant you invincible courage and supreme glory in the name of the Holy Spirit, the Lord and the Father. ”
The archbishop slowly raised his hand, and on his middle finger was a large ring inlaid with a crystal white jade that radiated a faint white halo.
"Be baptized by the Holy Spirit. ”
A soft light poured out from the jade, enveloping the four people below, and the faces of the four supreme knights of the Hidden Holy See suddenly appeared intoxicated, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The archbishop looked at the Four Knights of the Apocalypse and nodded with satisfaction, no one could resist the holy energy in the jade, not even the determined papal knights.
As for the new Shan Yu Khan Khan, he has already become his puppet.
As long as you take one more step, you will take full control of this Hun army, counterattack Rome, and restore the glory of the hidden papacy!
The archbishop looked out into the tent with a smug smile on his face.
(The archbishop ultimately failed to live up to his lofty ideals.) But four hundred years later, a khan did just that, and he led the Huns across Europe, leaving the whole of Europe struggling in fear for decades, and the people who survived the catastrophe gave him a title: the Whip of God. He is the most famous Hun king in history - Attila. )8)
