At this time, on the other side of Europe.
In the Catholic Church, the Pope, who was wearing a holy white robe, looked very gloomy at the moment.
Because according to the news from the front line, the results of the two Holy Crusaders generals he assigned made him heartbroken and humiliated.
The Holy Crusaders led by Douglas attacked from the direction of Hanover, but Ling Chen led the troops to easily defeat the Longyan Army trapped in the European continent.
Rumor has it that General Douglas rose up to resist, but was unable to defeat the demons from hell, and eventually died for his country.
This is a rumor spread outside, at least that's what Catholic believers seem to be doing.
"That bastard Douglas knows how to mess with women!"
"He deserved to die on a woman's belly!"
The Pope was furious, and his room was full of messes. You didn't need to think about it to know that it was the Pope who did it.
After venting his anger, he looked at the military newspaper with heavy breaths, and suddenly became so angry that he tore the military newspaper into pieces.
"Dragon Flame Army!" The Pope almost squeezed these three words out from between his teeth.
Although Douglas's failure had a lot to do with him, it was the Dragon Flame Army led by Ling Chen that directly defeated Holy Cross.
Without the interference of the Longyan Army, Prussia would not have been able to hold on for long even if Douglas died.
The disparity in strength between them is too great.
At this time, a believer walked in and looked at the mess in the Pope's room. It was hard to imagine that this was the Pope who had always maintained an amiable and noble demeanor in his mind.
He looks more like a madman at the moment.
The pope looked over with a cold gaze, and the believer suddenly felt a thump in his heart, thinking that he had seen something he shouldn't have seen.
The believer quickly bent down, closed his eyes, and said respectfully: "Your Excellency the Pope, Prince Subitz has received news that his troops will not be able to attack Berlin recently."
"Saxony was unable to provide him with backup."
"Why!"
Although the believer did not see it, he could feel the murderous gaze of the Pope. He heard the Pope's deep and depressed voice asking: "The King of Saxony promised to provide support to the Holy Crusaders, why did he regret it now?"
The believer said in fear: "Saxony is currently fighting against the Dragon Flame Army. The King of Saxony does not dare to fight for his own factories, so he does not dare to send troops to support Prince Subitz."
"It's the Dragon Flame Army again!" The Pope was furious.
Douglas's failure was entirely due to the Longyan Army.
Prince Subiz did not have the same problems as Douglas, but his failure was also due to the disruption of the Long Yan Army.
Because of the Dragon Flame Army, the Holy Crusaders' rapid offensive was completely contained.
The Pope stared at the map on the wall and cursed: "These demons from hell, the Lord will punish them!"
"Pass my order and let France continue to increase its troops!"
The believer responded and quickly retreated. He shouldn't have stayed for more than a minute.
…
At this time, Egypt.
There is now a brief period of peace.
Dick, the leader of the British colonial area, is currently busy conquering the two port cities in Egypt and is unable to fight against Long Yan.
Due to the fall of two important port cities, the French colonial area no longer had their territory in Egypt.
Now Egypt is divided between Dragon Flame and Britain.
Although Long Yan and France had been in constant conflict before, France occupied Long Yan's three mines in Egypt.
But after all, there is a Sahara Desert in the middle. Until both sides have complete control of the Nile River, neither side can take action against the other.
But Jiang Xuan sent Nashadir to disintegrate France from within.
Therefore, Egypt now belongs to a relatively peaceful period, at least there has been no fighting recently.
Jiang Xuan vigorously developed Cairo and integrated and unified the Egyptian people.
Egypt has a very long history and once had a complete system.
When Jiang Xuan governed Cairo, he chose to respect Egyptian culture, but at the same time, he spread Long Yan's culture to Egypt through other means.
For a country to be influential, it is not just about its military strength, but also its culture.
Under the guidance of Liu Zheng, Jiang Xuan understood this truth.
After he eliminated the pirates in the Suez Canal, while developing the economy, he also subtly brought Long Yan's culture into Egypt.
At this time, on the other side of Egypt.
Nashadir and Marina's engagement party came as scheduled.
Following the traditions of the Egyptian nobility.
According to Nashadir's understanding, he knew that Egypt has very traditional customs and views.
It is said that Egyptian girls are forbidden to bathe and dress up after they are about ten years old. They think this is a sign of debauchery.
But in Nashadir's opinion, this custom is completely bullshit.
Of course, such a custom is impossible for Marina to accept.
She was born into a noble family and never lacked water for bathing. After Marina was ten years old, she did not abide by these Egyptian customs at all.
This was something Nashadir agreed with very much.
On the day of the engagement party, Marina's sister Elena acted as her elder.
Since Nashadir had no relatives, Marina's brother-in-law, Sean, was temporarily replaced.
At first Sean refused.
After all, he is Nashadir's elder. If he is dissatisfied, Sean can clearly know what his fate will be.
Fortunately, Nashadir readily accepted this arrangement.
This gave Sean some relief.
But what Nashadir said next scared Sean out of his wits on the spot.
"It doesn't matter. When you are my elder, you have to be mentally prepared to die."
Therefore, Sean pretended to be sick today and did not come to Nashadir and Marina's engagement party.
The night of the engagement party.
There were bright lights and a joyful atmosphere in Socra's castle.
Although Marina is only Alina's sister, the size of this engagement banquet is even more grand than the wedding banquet of Sean, the heir to the Sugra tribe.
No one who came to this engagement banquet was of low status.
They are all the future heirs of the tribe.
At this banquet, Marina was dressed dazzlingly, and Nashadir was even more charming. Egypt's traditional customs and ceremonies have come to an end.
The evening banquet was held in the style of those European nobles.
Extremely luxurious.
Sean, who used the excuse of illness to escape, was invited by Alina during the evening banquet.
Sean now stood with Nashadir and introduced the guests to the engagement party.
A smile appeared on Nashadir's calm and majestic face, and he saluted the guests attending his engagement banquet.
Through Sean's introduction, Nashadir got to know the heirs of various tribes near Egypt.
