Chapter 753: The Battle for Faith Begins

For Zhenshui Pass, Zhao Yuan will not give up easily, not only because Zhao Yuan has made great efforts in Zhenshui Pass, but most importantly, the people of Zhenshui Pass have high hopes for Zhao Yuan, especially some squires and tyrants.

On the occasion of going to the flood area, Zhao Yuan had to settle down in Zhenshui Pass, and his attention to Zhenshui Pass can be seen.

Now, Zhao Yuan wanted to sort out the situation and ensure that there would be no danger in the short term of Zhenshui Pass.

At present, the soldiers of Blackwater City are strong and strong, and the Thorn Nu cavalry alone exceeds 200,000, plus the army of the Great Qin Empire, the total number has reached 500,000 people, as long as there is General Changkong in charge, even if there is danger, the crusaders will never be able to break the city in a short time.

As for the god of war Ares, Zhao Yuan was not worried, because, the anti-sky monkey said that the combat power of the god of war Ares's doppelganger was not long-lasting, that is to say, it was impossible for Ares to hold on to the capture of Blackwater City.

In addition, summoning a god clone also requires a huge amount of energy from the summoner, and because of this, General Gore cannot continuously summon a god clone to fight.

Normally, it is only when the war is reversed that General Gore summons a doppelganger.

At present, after General Gore set foot on the territory of the Great Qin Empire, in addition to summoning a god clone from the Rolling Stone Barracks, there was also a time in the imperial capital, and it was that time that he summoned the gods and defeated the invincible General Changkong, which greatly demoralized the crusaders and defeated them.

The crusader's biggest reliance is the Black-Winged Kunpeng, and the Black-winged Kunpeng has been pinned down by the archers led by Lan Cai'er and cannot move.

After figuring out the details of the crusaders, Zhao Yuan was no longer worried about the safety of Blackwater City.

Now, what Zhao Yuan is most worried about is Zhenshui Pass.

Intuition told Zhao Yuan that the Crusaders would never let Zhenshui Pass remain in this state of being controlled by Great Qin for a long time.

Why didn't the Crusaders take action?

Zhao Yuan racked his brains to reason about the idea of the crusader commander.

If he is the commander of the Crusaders, when the battle in Blackwater City is in a stalemate, and Zhao Yuan and the Anti-Sky Monkey cannot be separated, he will take a thunderous action and capture Zhenshui Pass in one fell swoop.

Some things, not quite reasonable.

In the eyes of outsiders, Zhao Yuan is a bold and evil person, but in fact, Zhao Yuan walks on thin ice at every step, although he often takes risks, however, he does not like to take risks, he prefers to think carefully and think twice.

When Zhao Yuan fled, he had comprehended the pressure of one mistake and he would die, and now, when the two armies are at war, personal wrong decisions will no longer affect Zhao Yuan's personal safety, but its influence is more far-reaching, not only related to the national fortune of the Great Qin Empire, but also related to the lives of thousands of ordinary soldiers.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Now, Zhao Yuan has a title of "Prime Minister", although this title has not been fully announced, it is only an internal decision, and it is in name, but the political reform of the entire Great Qin Empire is planned and promoted by him, so he must assume this responsibility......

……

Suddenly, Zhao Yuan thought of a problem, he had been paying attention to Zhenshui Pass and Blackwater City recently, but he hadn't noticed the movements of the Crusaders.

According to intelligence, nearly a million infantry have landed in the territory of the Russian Empire from the distant sea, so what is the huge army doing?

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan immediately combed through all the relevant information he had, and soon, he made an astonishing discovery.

The hundreds of thousands of troops that had already rushed to the Great Qin Empire had already been distributed to the various territories of the Great Qin Empire.

Moreover, in some slightly larger cities of the Great Qin Empire, some huge buildings are being built.

Huge building!

Zhao Yuan remembered that he remembered that when Zhenshui Pass was captured, there was a magnificent building under construction in Zhenshui Pass, and now, the building was in a semi-deserted state.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan immediately jumped up and disappeared into the vast darkness, a group of monsters wearing soldier armor all looked shocked.

In the eyes of the demons, Zhao Yuan's mana has become more and more powerful and unfathomable, and the speed of this transformation and transposition alone is already difficult to capture with the naked eye......

……

Zhao Yuan arrived at the magnificent building.

Zhao Yuan looked at the building in front of him blankly, inexplicably, he had a feeling of insignificance.

As far as the eye can see, the minaret is towering, with pointed arches, large windows and glass painted with written stories.

When Zhao Yuan was on the earth, he devoured some of the earth's religious buildings, and he found that this huge and magnificent building used sharp rib vaults, flying buttresses, and slender beam columns in the design to create a light and slender sense of flying sky, which was shocking.

In the surrounding area, as well as the new frame structure to increase the amount of force supporting the roof, the whole building has a straight line, a majestic appearance and a large space in the church, which, combined with the long glazed windows, creates a strong religious atmosphere in the building. The floor plan of the building is still largely Latin cross-shaped, but a pair of tall towers have been added to the sides of its western end door......

After Zhao Yuan, who was shocked in his heart, slowly walked into this building that made people look up, the whole person was stunned, he had seen this building from a distance before, but he didn't expect that there was such an atmosphere in it.

It is no exaggeration to describe it as magnificent.

On the huge dome, some mythological figures are depicted, and around it, there are sculptures that are too small to be true.

Many of the sculptures are still semi-finished.

Some of the dome paintings are only halfway through.

Obviously, the construction of this building was stopped because of Zhao Yuan's sudden appearance, but it was only a semi-finished product, and the visual impact was extremely shocking.

The church is not deserted, there are many clergy in robes who are praying in the church, and below, there are actually many ordinary people of the Great Qin Empire......

……

Looking at those pious Great Qin people, Zhao Yuan's mood became heavier and heavier, and he actually ignored one of the most important things - the power of faith.

Obviously, the spark of the Zhenshui Pass made the crusaders realize that war was only a secondary means, and the most important thing was to change the faith of the common people of the Great Qin Empire.

As long as the beliefs of the common people of the Great Qin Empire are changed, it is believed that soon, the common people of Great Qin will join the crusaders to fight against the army of the Great Qin Empire.

The follow-up army of the crusaders did not come to fight, but to stabilize the territories already occupied by the Great Qin Empire, create a peaceful environment in a short period of time, and then, through religious brainwashing, let the common people of the Great Qin Empire change their beliefs.

It is very difficult to change the beliefs of human beings, but it is not as difficult as imagined, especially in times of disaster, disease and war, when human faith is most easily shaken.

Usually, some human beings who are not strong in willpower will choose religious beliefs that are beneficial to them.

And now, the Great Qin Empire is in chaos, the people of Great Qin have suffered a lot, and every common person wants to live a stable life, and at this time, the religious beliefs of the crusaders take advantage of the void, and it is easy to gain a group of loyal believers.

After the first believers have obtained some material and spiritual things, the subtle change of faith has been completed......

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan inexplicably shivered.

The territory of the Great Qin Empire is vast, and Heishui City and Zhenshui Pass are insignificant, as long as the army is used to drag the army of the Great Qin Empire in Zhenshui Pass and Heishui City for some time, when the time comes, even if the army of the Great Qin Empire fights back, there will be no response.

A war is not uncommon to last ten years and a hundred years, and it is clear that the Crusaders are no longer in a hurry to capture Blackwater City and Zhenshui Pass, but are focusing on the places they occupy.

It is no wonder that General Gore took the initiative to abandon the Nine Bends and the Rolling Stones Barracks, and they never thought of exchanging huge casualties for a temporary victory.

In fact, only after the alliance between the Thorn Slaves and Great Qin, it was impossible for the Crusaders to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, because, behind Blackwater City, was the vast and rich Thorn Slave Prairie.

The winter of the Great Qin Empire is very long, and now, the winter has only started for more than a month, at least more than two months, and these two months, the crusaders are enough to complete control in the Great Qin Empire......

……

No, the military rhythm of the crusaders must be broken!

Zhao Yuan glanced at the towering buildings in the night, strode away, his steps were firm, and on the snow, he left a series of deep footprints, and his face was murderous......
