"We come for peace!" one of them shouted!
"The French troops have invaded Italy, and soon they will attack the Mantua Fortress, and Italy will fall!"
"Merciful Lord, loving Pope, please bring us peace."
The pope looked at the senior officials of the Italian country with a look of embarrassment on his face, and sighed: "I am just a messenger of the Lord. I am a low-key person, so I'm afraid I can't be of much help."
Seeing this, these senior officials of Taiyi Kingdom immediately ordered people to bring in several large boxes.
After the box was opened, the shiny gold inside was revealed!
All kinds of rare jewelry are filled in the wooden box.
The Pope glanced subconsciously, waved his hand, and someone carried these common objects to an unknown cabin.
The senior people in Italy seemed not to have seen it.
The Pope sighed, stood up, picked up his scepter, and said with compassion: "The Lord does not want to see too much killing in the world."
"If my old body can do this, I will naturally not refuse."
"Then France is also a country that believes in the Lord, so that's fine, I'll just go there."
Under the watchful eyes of the Italian high-level officials, the Pope slowly walked out. When passing by them, he seemed to be a god who could do everything to solve a small problem.
The Pope climbed into a carriage that symbolized his status.
He said in a deep voice: "Let's go..."
The top Italian officials were immediately relieved and asked the Pope to take action. Everything was a foregone conclusion.
They have never seen any Catholic believer dare to disobey the Pope's will!
Although with the industrial revolution and the rise of biology.
The Catholic faith has been impacted to a certain extent, but those are all pagans, and they will eventually be exiled to hell by the Lord.
This is something that Catholic believers always firmly believe, and it is also something that the top leaders of Italy completely believe in!
They followed the Pope's carriage and drove away.
…
The position is less than fifty kilometers away from the Mantua Fortress.
This is a temporary stronghold established by Bonaparte. He did not even hide the location of this stronghold. Even if it was exposed to the Italians, they would not have any way to attack Bonaparte's troops.
After Montenotte's troops were defeated and fled, although the Italian army still had strong troops, its combat effectiveness was worrying.
Therefore, even if the Italian troops knew Bonaparte's position and formulated an attack plan, there would be no way to complete the plan.
In the command camp, Bonaparte was studying with his generals a plan to break through the Mantua Fortress. This fortress was not simple.
Italy has accumulated a large number of troops here.
There is also a moat surrounding the fortress.
"Obviously the bridge above the moat is what we are fighting for, and Italy has at least 60,000 troops in the Mantua Fortress."
"We have to find a way to attack this bridge under the noses of these 60,000 people, although the Italian army's combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the Austrian army."
"But we still have to be extremely careful."
Bonaparte said in a deep voice, his generals proposed several plans one after another, but they would all pay a huge price.
But Bonaparte now had a new plan in mind.
"We surrounded the Mantua Fortress and forced the Italian army to seize the bridge like us. With nowhere to escape, they could only adopt the same strategy as us if they wanted to survive."
"Either risk crossing the river, or seize the bridge and go outside to find more food.",
Everyone thought about it and felt that this strategy was really great. In this way, the strong strength of the Italian army became their disadvantage.
If they remain huddled in the fortress and cannot come out, they will have a very serious problem. They will have no food, no supplies, nothing!
Everyone chuckled and looked at Bonaparte's commander-in-chief of this battle: "General, this plan is really great. It can help us easily defeat the Austrian troops. They will pay a heavy price for it!"
Just when Bonaparte besieged the fortress of Mantua for nearly a month.
The soldiers in the city could no longer bear the pain caused by hunger.
Death in battle is but a moment, but hunger is not.
He is like a dull knife, slowly cutting off your flesh, and then forcing you to eat it, but it will not bring you the slightest sense of fullness. He encourages you to keep doing this.
Go eat everything you can see.
Until the end of life!
The soldiers of the Mantua Fortress spent every day in hunger. Everyone was suffering from this, and some of them were no longer afraid of death.
Or jump out of the river and swim over to fight.
Or rush to the other side of the bridge!
Seeing that the war was about to break out, and Bonaparte's plan was about to succeed, a sudden arrival of a guest interrupted all progress.
He came in a white carriage.
In the command camp...
"General, the Pope is here."
Bonaparte frowned, never having thought that the Pope would be involved in this war.
Suddenly, a man in white robes, holding a scepter and a staff, walked into the command camp, opened his hands and gave a slight salute, and said: "General, I come for peace."
"How many divisions do you have?" Bonaparte asked directly.
pope:"……"
He said solemnly: "Believers of the Lord are all over the world. France has believed in Catholicism more than a thousand years ago, and until now, most people in France are still believers of the Lord!"
"You can't deny this reality."
"Hehehe..."
A burst of laughter suddenly sounded in the command camp. The Pope frowned. When he looked at Bonaparte, he found that the corners of Bonaparte's mouth had long been split into a smile.
"Bonaparte, stop it. I have no troops, but the Lord has countless believers."
Bonaparte refused directly: "Catholicism has become a thing of the past in France, and no one can lord it over the French!"
"I, the First Consul of France, will accept no one's appointment."
He looked at the Pope with contempt and said lightly: "Go back to your church with peace of mind. This war will not reach the church, but what will happen if you are not in the church? I can only say one thing Sorry."
The pope's expression suddenly changed!
The threatening intent of this sentence is obvious to the extreme!
The Pope's face was extremely gloomy. He had never seen such an arrogant Frenchman!
"You will regret it." The pope said harsh words and turned to leave.
He has already thought about how to make France fall apart in the fury of the Catholics. He wants all France to be lost in the tide of history.
Just when he reached the gate of the command camp, Bonaparte suddenly said:
"Pope, Long Yan has cooperated with us. I can't stop my ally from doing whatever he wants."
"Oh, by the way, they think controlling Rome is a good thing."
As if he had heard the most terrifying thing, the Pope quickly ran out of the command camp, rushed into the carriage, and fled from here like the wind!
And in this scene, in the eyes of everyone, he looks like a clown.
