Chapter 1344: Unconfirmed Good News

One bastion after another slowly appeared over the Vatino.

They galloped in neat formations from the east.

In the sunlight, their massive bodies left a huge shadow on the ground, like a dark cloud before a storm, completely enveloping the entire Vatino City.

Without direct sunlight, the city became much cooler in an instant.

By this time, those war bastions were getting closer and closer.

Standing on the ground, you can clearly see the various signs on those war fortresses.

Those signs prominently indicate their identity, including those from the Maple Leaf Danlin and the Flying Eagle Group, and there are nearly a hundred of them. And the officers were all solemn-faced, neatly dressed, with oxhide pistol bags around their waists, and even their boots were polished brightly, so that they could shine a light on the figures. It's impossible to find fault with it at all.

The bishops, the Templars who remained in the city, and those who heard the movement all ran out of the underground bomb shelters and gathered on the roadside to watch the handsome soldiers.

There are even a lot of girls among them.

They shy and boldly hid behind the flowers, pointing at the officers and soldiers of the security army, and from time to time they let out a crisp and pleasant noise like silver bells, attracting the soldiers in the queue to peek quietly.

After the small actions of the GIs were discovered by the officers, they immediately attracted a loud scolding from the officers.

The field was noisy and lively for a while, in stark contrast to the coldness just now.

"Sure enough, it's an elite division~!" After Mazovia looked at those soldiers, he immediately came to pat Lorraine's ass and exclaimed: "Just by looking at this spirit and morale, you know that the warriors under your command are extraordinary, sir." ”

The bishops next to him also agreed and patted their ass.

Although there has not been a war yet, and they have not been tested in actual combat, they have already praised these soldiers as the world's first-class elite who have won all battles.

However, when he saw an orc with an exceptionally strong physique and a hairy face walking through the team, Mazovia was surprised: "How can there be a half-orc?"

'If you are not of my race, your heart will be different' is the mainstream thinking of human beings at present.

They don't believe in orcs, barbarians. Elves, goblins, and other alien races think that they are similar to savages, rude and savage, ignorant, and undisciplined, and are not at all material for war. Otherwise, they would not have been driven by humans to remote barren mountains and mountains.

Lorraine pursed her lips and corrected softly, "It's not just orcs, there are elves among the winners. There are dwarves, and even, there are goblins.

Of course, they are also the most faithful believers of the God of Light, and they were personally inspired by His Majesty to throw themselves into the arms of our Holy See. ”

Mazovia chuckled in her heart, and secretly complained bitterly: how could you forget this stubble, these orc believers are all the credit of His Majesty the current Pope.

back then. All of them were recruited by Hillmelia's own preaching, and there were three million people who were claimed. It was still a sensation at the time.

It was by virtue of this merit that Sylmeria was promoted to the Great Cardinal. And because of this, when the Pope was elected, it was very popular with many centrist cardinal archbishops. The Holy See has not been so meritorious for hundreds of years.

The Privy Counsellor glanced at Sylmeria and saw that she was having an intimate conversation with Vera, and should not have noticed him.

Mazovia secretly screamed 'fluke', and then said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, sir, you are absolutely right. God is equally merciful to all people, regardless of race or gender. ”

Looking at the layer of white sweat oozing from the old guy's head, Lorraine didn't say anything. Instead, he pointed to the half-orcs in the Eagle Division's queue, and said with a smile: "Don't look at them as half-orcs, but the main force in the team, well-trained, are all amazing soldiers." ”

At this time, the commander of the Eagle Division, General Patlaud, walked briskly towards Lorraine and saluted him. He said loudly: "My lord, according to your order, the Eagle Division has come to reinforce you. ”

Lorraine raised her hand and saluted in return, saying, "It's been hard all the way." ”

"It's not hard. Patroud shook his head, then smiled bitterly, and said, "First the train and then the fortress of war, so that now these puppies don't want to walk."

Let them march on foot, and the puppies are still complaining. ”

"Oh?" Lorraine asked with interest, "what did these guys say?"

Patroud spread his hands helplessly and said, "They actually said that our eagle division should fly in the sky, and they also said that we are heavy armorers and should not have walked." ”

When Lorraine heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, and said: "It's only been a few good days, and I forgot my old job, and when this battle is over, the general will train them well." ”

"Yes~!" Patroud replied loudly: "What else do you have to order, sir? If not, I want to start field mapping immediately and start arranging defenses as soon as possible." ”

Lorraine waved his hand and said, "Go and do your job, General, this battle will all depend on our Eagle Division." ”

Patroud saluted, turned around and said hello, and ran back to the war fortress with a group of people, randomly rising into the air to survey the terrain around the Vatino.

Mazovia has been watching from the side, and secretly smacked his tongue in his heart: The soldiers under this master are really all arrogant, where is there a subordinate who directly asks the superior if there is anything wrong?

This...... It's also so disrespectful.

However, seeing that Lord Lorraine himself didn't take it seriously, Mazovia could only pout his lips and ask the doubts in his heart, "May I ask the lord, what is a reloader?"

Lorraine said: "It's because of them. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the war fortress not far away.

The war fortresses were as dense as swarms, emitting a deafening roar, slowly lowering in altitude and searching for a suitable landing ground on the ground.

Because it is too unfamiliar with the Vatino Holy City, the war fortress in the sky seems to be cautious, and has been hovering at a low altitude, not daring to land.

In the past, this work was carried out by a dedicated person, with airport guides arriving before the large forces and then setting out the landing area to guide the war forts - flags of different colors and striking white lines during the day, and lights at night.

Therefore, when the large army arrived, there was no need to spend any effort at all, just follow the guide's signs and land directly.

But before that, the flight unit only cared about supporting Sandos in Delong City, desperately transporting supplies there, and the Vatino couldn't pull out a single person at all.

This has led to a bit of a confusion for them right now.

However, the pilots on the war bastions are also well trained. It has long been adapted to the situation.

Seeing that there was no one on the ground, they immediately switched to autonomous mode.

The war fortress led by the leader made two circles in the air, and then slowly landed on the Great Vast Field.

Behind it, the rest of the flying force landed one after another along the main road facing the Temple of Light.

Looking at the momentum of the war fortresses in front of them like dark clouds crushing the city, the hearts of the bishops of the Vatino that had been hanging for a long time could finally land.

When these powerful reinforcements arrived, the hope of the Vatino to be saved was greatly increased, especially the more than 100 war fortresses, which gave these bishops a reassurance.

With these war fortresses, they even have the confidence to challenge the High Priest of the Undead. As for the human rebels and demon armies under Delong City, they are naturally not taken seriously by the bishops.

Under the pleasure. The bishops didn't care about the mages appearing in the Radiant Holy City, and they didn't even see these guys manipulating the war fortress and flying back and forth a few times against the top of the Temple of Light.

If it was to be put aside in normal times, the mage dared to swing on the roof of the Temple of Light, and the bishops had already red eyes, rolled up their sleeves and rushed up, fighting with those bastards.

All along, the relationship between priests and mages has not been good. No matter where they go, they can't get used to each other.

Inside the Maple Leaf Danlin. The three faculties all live together, and it stands to reason that it should be like official propaganda, something like 'sincere unity, unity' or something. But they also stumble on each other and wear small shoes.

Like the scolding priest academy of the magic academy, it is 'a bunch of bald people who are dead-backed, and only know how to cheat money~!'

And the priest academy who replied to the magic academy was 'a bunch of charlatans who sell fake rat medicine, shameless bandits~!'

If the two sides met in taverns, nightclubs and other 'extraterritorial battlefields', it would naturally be a 'death flag'. Play live PK.

Outside the Academy, the relationship between the upper echelons of the Vatino and the Mage Society was even worse. It's basically old and dead that don't get along.

But now, at the critical moment of Vatino's life and death, these mages who usually have their tails in the sky can put aside their past prejudices and rush to support without hesitation, which really touches these bishops.

The fortress of war has just come to a halt on the ground. The door opened.

At the loud commands of the officers, soldiers dressed in black quickly ran out of the war fortress and began to line up in the streets.

These soldiers are tall and strong, and they give people a sense of strength and strength when they look at them.

And act quickly. The movements are uniform.

As soon as the officer gave the order, he immediately formed a phalanx like a tofu block.

Looking horizontally and vertically, it is a neat line, which shows that it is well-trained.

Their weapons were tightly wrapped around their backs, and they couldn't see what they were. I saw that from the entrance of the war fortress, dozens of soldiers were carefully pushing down a cannon.

Mazovia's eyes lit up, unlike the thick and bulky cannons he had ever seen, the barrel of the cannon in front of him was slender, and behind the barrel were two long supports.

"The Eagle Division is all equipped with new artillery," Lorraine patiently explained, "breech loading, fixed ammunition and ammunition, thanks to the great alchemy, the shaping spell easily solved the problem of seamless steel pipes."

With a rate of fire of six to eight rounds per minute and a maximum range of more than eight miles, it is enough to deal with any ground forces at the moment. ”

Lorraine spoke a proper noun, and he heard Mazovia's clouds, but he also understood that this new artillery could hit eight miles away, and it could shoot eight shells in a minute.

This statistic made Mazovia's heart very excited, and the distance between the two armies against the camp in this era was not necessarily eight miles.

Wouldn't the ultra-long range mean that the enemy's camp could be bombarded directly from the city?

"Like this kind of artillery, the Eagle Division is equipped with ninety guns," Lorraine proudly looked at the busy Eagle Division soldiers in front of him, and said, "There is an artillery regiment under the Eagle Division. There are four more infantry brigades, each of which has an artillery battalion in turn. In each battalion there was also a platoon armed with smaller-caliber artillery.

That's why they're called reloaders~!"

The Eagle Division is the strategic reserve of Naian, the elite of the elite.

In order to arm the Eagle Division, Lord Lorraine has invested a lot of money, and half of the new artillery belongs to the Eagle Division, and the Alchemy Research Institute has come up with any new weapons, which are also the first to be equipped by the Eagle Division.

"And," Lorraine said mysteriously, "they have new weapons." ”

Mazovia didn't understand what the brigade platoon Lord Lorraine was talking about, but he heard Lord Lorraine keep repeating "cannon, cannon, cannon......"

"How much artillery is this?" asked Mazovia, muttering.

The Holy See is also engaged in artillery, and the Flying Eagle Group sells very happily. And it's a friendship price.

For the sake of Hillmelia's face, Chairman Leore, as the most conscientious capitalist in the new era, only slightly doubled the cost price, and asked the Holy See to keep it strictly secret and not to disclose it to others. Otherwise, the Elven Kingdom and Almohads should be fried.

With the weapons, the Holy See suddenly discovered that they did not yet have people who could handle them, and the training of artillery became a problem.

Fortunately, it was not difficult for the Holy See to find a few hundred literate Templars, but until now. The artillery of the Holy See has not yet left the division, and is being whipped by the instructors of the security army in the rear.

Lorraine patted Mazovia on the shoulder. "In the army, artillery accounts for one-third of the number of troops, so you are embarrassed to tell people that this is a modern army." I'm still far from it~!"

"A third ......" Mazovia gasped, then shook his head with a wry smile, sure in his heart, it seemed that it was impossible for the Holy See to catch up with the security forces.

Mazovia clearly knew that he had spent millions on these dozens of artillery, and he could not afford it with the wealth of the Holy See.

Besides, after the end of the war, the Templar Legion was to be disbanded. With the exception of the Knights Templar, the Holy See does not maintain a standing army.

However, Mazovia also knew that this was good news for himself and for the Holy See, and that the side with artillery would have an advantage in the war.

The Knights Templar and the Vatino's ordinary clergy, all called in to help, unloading all their weapons and baggage in a very short time.

The fortress of war does not stop. It quickly rose again and disappeared into the eastern sky.

Only 2,000 men and some equipment were transported on this trip, and the large force of the Eagle Division and most of the heavy weapons were still slowly crawling in the rear at the moment.

Moreover, the two companies that came to reinforce from the Maple Leaf Danlin War Fortress will not stay for long. They had taken the time to help, and in a day it would be another day when the Undead War Fortress would go to the Maple Leaf Danlin to clock in on time, and they would have to hurry back and fight fiercely with the enemy.

As soon as the officers and men of the Eagle Division stepped on the ground with their feet, they immediately began to work.

At this time, an agent of the Vatino branch of the venture capital company walked up to Lorraine, handed a telegram to Lorraine, leaned into the ear of the lord, and said in a low voice: "News from the rear, the red ghost may have killed a big man in Delon." ”

"How big is it?" Lorraine took the telegram and skimmed it quickly.

"According to analysis, it is very likely to be the commander-in-chief of the Western Front of the Demon Race, Maschinotte. The agent lowered his voice excitedly.

Lord Lorraine was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time before he exhaled and said, "I...... This deal is worth it~!"

Mazovia saw Lorraine's excited expression on the side, and asked curiously, "Sir, is there any good news?"

"Probably good news," Lorraine snapped a telegram, "but it won't be announced until it's confirmed." ”

Lorraine didn't want to make a big day...... The Imperial Army's 'Great Joy, Boasting 13' -- sinking the same aircraft carrier eight times in an air battle has become a laughing stock all over the world.

If this news is released, it will be ironclad and will boost the morale of the army and people to resist the demons.

But here I released it, and the demons over there pulled out a maschinot to parade the streets, which not only made a big joke, but also caused the opposite effect.

"Let the company confirm the authenticity of this news. Lorraine handed the telegram to the agent, looked up to the west, and said with a smile, "Interesting, I said how the Semitic people suddenly became slow."

Now, some of them are in trouble. ”

Maschinot is the ground commander of the Western Front of the Demon Race, and he is also the king of New Casmonia, he died suddenly on the battlefield, and the crown of Casmonlia is coveted by many people.

A few days later, inside the city of Delong.

Cardinal Sandos stood at the head of the city, looking through a telescope at the Semitic camp opposite.

The camp gates were closed, and the Semitic soldiers seemed to wander around the camp with nothing to do, looking lazy and lazy.

The cardinal breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the demons would not attack today, which was good news for the Baier army trapped in the lonely city.

Since the first battle, the Demon War Fortress, which worries Santos the most, has not come back.

The air transport troops in the rear seized the time before yesterday to replenish the grenades for him and evacuated the seriously wounded, and in the whole process, the hundreds of thousands of demon people on the opposite side just watched without any movement.

Sandos thinks this is very perverse.

After replenishment, the Legion of Bayer had enough ammunition and high morale, and His Excellency Cardinal thought that he could last ten more days and half a month.

But contrary to the soldiers' expectations, the Semites had not been out of the camp since that battle.

The strange situation kept Cardinal Sandos awake at night, and after analyzing and analyzing, Cardinal finally concluded that this was a ploy by the enemy to lure him out of the city.

Because the losses of the demon siege were too great, they wanted to change their tactics.

Cardinal Sandos scoffed at this, and was quite disdainful in his heart: When I was a three-year-old child, tempting me to give up the advantage of city defense and fight a field battle with the demons?

There are no doors~!

He made up his mind to stick to it, and the longer it dragged on, the better it would be for the Vatino.

At this moment, two long-lost ghosts stepped forward and saluted Sandos.

The cardinal hurriedly returned the salute, and the two men had killed two dark mages in battle, and were now legends in the legion.

It's just that the two people in front of him seem to be a little strange, and the cold temperament on their bodies is much less, and their expressions seem to be a little ...... Confused?

A man handed a letter to Santos and said with some hesitation, "I think your Excellency may need to take a look at this." ”

Santos opened the letterhead with a stomach full of doubts and glanced at it, the whole person was instantly stunned, and after a few seconds, he suddenly exclaimed, exclaiming in disbelief: "You killed Maschinotte?!"
