Europe, on the banks of the Elbe River.
The flood spread and the thirty thousand troops of the Holy Crusaders were swallowed up.
Corpses were strewn across the fields, and there were wailings. The Longyan Army took advantage of the situation to attack, and the Longyan Army led by Ling Chen launched an all-out war.
By this time, General Douglas had died.
The Holy Crusaders were an army organized by many countries, with the French occupying the majority and other countries occupying smaller portions.
They all contributed troops because of their Catholic faith.
Douglas was the commander-in-chief elected by France to lead the three armies.
General Douglas was now dead, but Xianza did not cause greater chaos.
The chief of staff suppressed the matter immediately. He also knew what consequences would be brought if this news was exposed when the war came.
The already unstable Holy Crusaders will surely fall into greater chaos.
When the time comes, no one will be able to resist the Long Yan Army's attack.
Their holy crusade has only one path to failure.
They still have the upper hand. As long as the Longyan Army that takes the initiative to attack is wiped out, this crisis can be completely resolved.
However, the counselor underestimated the level of Long Yanjun.
Ling Chen had already planned everything.
As the saying goes, attacking the enemy with military force is the most important thing!
Immediately after Douglas's death, Mary delivered the news to the Prussian residents of Hanover.
When she killed Douglas, she took something from him.
Something that would prove who Douglas was.
And because Mary followed Douglas around the city every day during these days, no one knew about the relationship between the two of them.
Mary was a Prussian, and according to some information they knew, her family was a big noble.
And she is a traitor to Prussia!
As a Prussian, she actually went to be the mistress of Douglas, the enemy of Prussia.
So Mary was despised by the people of Hanover.
But after Mary and many others who still believed in Frederick II and the Longyan Army exposed the news that Douglas was killed by Mary.
They were shocked at first. How could Mary, that bitch, kill Douglas?
Immediately afterwards, a scene happened that none of them expected.
Mary actually appeared openly during the pursuit of the Holy Crusaders.
Reveal the things that bear Douglas's identity.
She also shouted to the people: "The evil dragon has fallen. We must rise up and resist. We must not let these demons who use the name of the Lord roam the world and drive them back to hell!"
When the people saw this scene, they were still very shocked, but more and more people came forward and believed it.
Countless Prussian residents rioted.
As for the Holy Crusaders, they were stunned when they saw this scene.
General Douglas was dead and they had no idea.
How can this be!
When he saw Douglas's token in Mary's hand, the Holy Crusader was immediately at a loss.
"Catch the woman who spread the rumors!"
This woman, who was hated by the Prussians, eventually won the respect of everyone because of her character.
She was helped by the Prussians and escaped again.
The matter quickly expanded, and Long Yanjun and Frederick II added fuel to the fire.
The Holy Crusaders could not tell whether the news was true or false, but after they started the war with the Longyan Army, they never saw General Douglas who needed women every day again.
Some Holy Crusaders generals began to wonder about the authenticity of this matter.
They are not French soldiers, they are soldiers of other countries.
Although both believe in Catholicism, their interests are not the same.
There are all kinds of dissatisfaction with each other.
Douglass was a general promoted by the Pope to command the three armies.
These countries did not dare to disobey the Pope's order, but now that Douglas was dead, they naturally would not be able to sit still.
During Douglas's leadership, the entire Holy Crusade was also divided into factions.
The French army is obviously treated much better than their allies.
This caused strong dissatisfaction among them.
Once Douglas died, no one could suppress them. Although the news has not been confirmed yet, the generals of the Holy Crusaders from other countries decided to go and find out.
At this time, Douglas's mansion.
"Why don't you let us see the general!"
"The front line is tight now. The chief of staff issued an order, but I didn't listen!"
"I want to see the general, and I saw him personally giving orders!"
Other important generals of the Holy Crusaders said angrily.
The chief of staff, who was hiding in the mansion, completely lost confidence at this moment.
He is not Douglas, and there is no way he can suppress this group of people.
Douglass had the authority granted by the Pope, but he did not. He was just a chief of staff.
"Did the Chief of Staff seize power? Did something unexpected happen to General Douglas?"
"What are you hiding from us?"
"Where are the Long Yan Army now? You still issued the general's order, are you going to let the Long Yan Army annihilate us all in Hanover?"
Facing the rampage of these generals, the Holy Crusaders could not stop them at all.
They could only say: "The Chief of Staff also followed General Douglas's order. You will soon be on the battlefield to resist the Longyan Army."
"What you are doing now is disobedience. If we are held accountable, we can definitely handle it under military law!"
"Oh, if we don't see the general today, you'll kill us all!"
These Holy Crusaders generals did not give in at all, and rushed straight to the door of Douglas's house.
There was so much commotion outside, but General Douglas still didn't show up. This was not his style at all.
Now they can almost conclude that General Douglas has encountered something unexpected!
But at this moment, the door creaked open and a man walked out.
It was none other than the chief of staff of General Douglas. He looked at everyone coldly and said indifferently: "The general is dead, but that is not the reason for you to make trouble here!"
When everyone heard this, they shouted coldly: "Even if the general dies, you, a little chief of staff, will not be in charge of the army!"
"The general is dead, there are deputy generals, and other generals. When will it be your turn as the chief of staff to give orders here!"
The chief of staff took a deep breath. He no longer had the ability to maintain the situation of the Holy Crusaders.
Paper cannot contain the fire, it will only make the fire burn hotter and stronger!
These generals immediately said: "Now that the Long Yan Army is launching a large-scale attack, the general has encountered misfortune. I propose to elect another person as the temporary commander to lead the three armies."
"Destroy the infidels!"
"I, the general of the ancient Roman Empire, as the founder of the Roman Empire, should take over the power and lead the Holy Crusaders to victory!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a sneer of ridicule.
