Duke Alves looked at Lai Gouer for instructions.
Now everything must rely on the dog's leadership.
He did not have the guts to make the decision to go against the church.
Not to mention that the church mobilized the Heroic army.
The Temple Army has also arrived, which is the most elite force in the Holy City.
"What is the level of the Temple Army?" Lai Gouer asked.
Hope immediately said: "Everyone is heavily armored! There are not many temple soldiers, but each one is carefully selected. They are tall and one person can outnumber three or five ordinary soldiers."
It seems that I have really spent a lot of money and am ready to serve it all in one pot.
Lai Gou'er thought: "It will be some time before they reach the royal city. It would be a bit strange for the army to suddenly appear."
"The only possibility is that the church may have actually determined that Feka has apostatized and wants to annihilate him with all certainty."
Hope broke into a cold sweat.
Duke Alves asked anxiously: "What should we do?"
"First send two envoys to greet them. We will wait here."
"That's all we can do... We'll investigate again and report again."
...
It was raining heavily and the weather was gloomy.
On top of the city, Lai Gouer inspected the artillery placement.
Now all the soldiers at the top of the city have been replaced by Dajing soldiers for defense.
Although our own casualties may be greater by doing this, there is no other way.
Father Sorje's prestige in the city has been surpassed by no one. His brainwashing and his own efforts have made the people in the city almost convinced of him.
But after all, it was the Church's Temple Army who came in person, and the power of the Church's headquarters to intimidate the people was needless to say.
If the city defense soldiers surrender first when the Temple Army comes over, the port will lose control and all previous efforts will be wasted.
It is most appropriate to use Da Jing's soldiers to defend the city.
Halfway through Lai Gou'er's inspection, the Duke of Alves panicked and ran up the city wall.
Standing in front of him, he gasped and said, "The envoy we sent has never come back. He must have been killed."
"The spies reported that in about three days, Hero's army will arrive at the city."
"The lords along the way have volunteered to join the Heroic army and come together. The number now is probably 80,000."
"We only have more than 20,000 people now, so the pressure may be a bit great."
Twenty thousand to defend eighty thousand, of course you can defend it.
But Lai Gouer frowned: "Have all the lords along the way joined in?"
Duke Alves nodded helplessly: "What else? Those people are not completely at the mercy of the state. Now that the church is calling, of course they will follow the church!"
"I'm afraid half of the people here are joined by lords from various places."
Lai Gou'er said: "The other party is coming fiercely. Let's start raising the suspension bridge on the moat now. The curfew starts today. You are responsible for strictly controlling the people. You must not let the people below cause trouble."
"Although the opponent's army is in the majority, its origin is complicated. As long as we show off our firearms and frighten the enemy, the opponent will be defeated in one blow."
"Last time, I informed the court about the situation here. In reply, there will be a wave of support. It should be coming in some time. At that time, we will unite and take the initiative to attack. After the forces outside the city are cleared, we will go straight to the Holy City. , stabilize the situation."
"You have nothing to worry about then. Remember, you and the priest must stabilize the people. As long as there is no chaos on your side, there will be no problem here."
"All right...."
.....
The iron hooves of the Hero Kingdom are rushing towards the port, with clear goals and fierce momentum.
The original army only had 50,000 people, but as it advanced deeper into Feka.
The lords along the way bowed to him one after another and were willing to follow the temple army to fight against the enemy.
In fact, the local lord's sense of smell is also very sensitive.
The constant news coming from the main city of Feka has made many people's imaginations wander.
Now that the Temple Army has appeared, the meaning behind it is self-evident.
The core of Fika has indeed apostatized!
They are looking for death, just don't take us with them.
As a result, the Heroic Army and the Temple Army were like snowballs, growing bigger and bigger.
The supplies of baggage are also becoming more and more abundant.
The local lord showed his strength.
After all, they are all lords of Feika, and the church's current attitude towards Feika, even though they have little connection with the core nobles.
There will inevitably be a reckoning in the future.
Now is the best opportunity to show off!
At this moment, the army is stationed halfway, and it only takes two days to reach the main city of Feka.
In the big tent, General Maude, the leader of Hero Kingdom, was sitting on one side of the tent with his golden sword.
At the head of the seat is the presiding judge who came with the army from the Holy City, and next to him is the red archbishop of the diocese of Hero.
The two of them drank tea leisurely, looking unhurried.
Maud was a little short of breath when he saw this. The two guys looked like they were on vacation along the way, with no nervous expression at all.
Although Feka is a small country worth mentioning, this is a war after all!
War should be fought with a war attitude!
There was a slight fire in Mod's chest, and he said in a deep voice: "President, although Feka is weak, what we want to attack is the main city of a country after all. Although there are 80,000 soldiers, the origin is too complicated and difficult to organize."
"It is very difficult for 80,000 people to attack a city. If you want to seize the city gate, you will have to lose many people! At the beginning, I suggested that at least 100,000 soldiers be mobilized. Why did the presiding judge insist that 50,000 soldiers would be enough?" Now, do you just want to rely on the lords and peasant soldiers collected on the road as support?"
The presiding judge glanced at him lightly and said leisurely: "General, these are all instructions from the Holy See."
"Feka and Father Sorje rebelled without any cover-up. In addition, the brotherhood often secretly makes troubles. The world is becoming increasingly unstable."
"The church asked you to come, and it also brought 10,000 Templar troops with it, preparing to destroy Fika and capture Solje in one fell swoop. Naturally, it is absolutely sure. Otherwise, why would you send me here?"
"Then what's the certainty? Fika sent two envoys over, and you killed them without saying a word! This is a war, and the other party must be doing their best to prepare for war!" Mod said, clenching his fists, "Originally, The preparations in advance were not sufficient and the troops were too few."
The presiding judge rolled his eyes at him when he heard this: "How did you become a general? You can't fight with a small number of people? Don't you know that you can win a large number with a small number?"
"Hmph, if you give me a million men, I can win every day. If you can't defeat many with less, what kind of general can you call yourself?"
Oh shit! Retarded! moron!
If I really give you a million people, I don’t have to fight with a loser like you. I have to deal with half of them first. Why do you think I’m playing house?
A vein appeared on Maud's forehead and she said slowly:
"President, this is a sword-to-sword war. Praying...can't kill the enemy."
The presiding judge stared at him and suddenly smiled evilly: "Are you questioning the Holy See's decision?"
"I don't, it's just that you can't be vague in fighting. The Holy See hopes to achieve great success, but now every step seems to be random. And originally I was planning to attack quickly, but now the baggage of the Temple Army has seriously slowed down the speed of the advance. What is their carriage? What are you pulling, a cart with only one box and four horses to pull it?" Maud took a deep breath and asked.
