Chapter 158 (1/2)
Port Putao.
On the dock, the head of the Mason family waited respectfully. In the previous rebellion, the Mason family did not feel like the contented Earl of Brittany that they could run wild with the help of the black dragon and the mercenaries. Maisen clan leader was weak, but he was quite energetic. Except for providing military support in the early days of the rebellion, he never set foot on the battlefield.
Facts have proved that his approach is correct.
The majestic Earl of Brittany's body is hard to find, and he is still in the port of Putao safely. He lives well relying on the authority of the director of justice of the city of herid.
On the sea in the distance, the white sails grew up, neat as a flag. The bow of the ship in the front is like an angel holding a sharp sword high. The whole ship comes through the waves, like a long sword dividing the sea, with great momentum. On both sides of the ship's deck stood a silver warrior, the most powerful Temple Knight of the Holy See.
The big ship pulled in and the white pedal was released.
A group of friars dressed in white quickly spread a pure white blanket between the pedal and the dock. All the people on the dock knelt down and put their hands close to the ground.
The emperor of the holy Empire, the Pope of the Holy See, and theold slowly stepped down from the holy ship.
Compared with the previous white haired popes, theold is young, and he is probably the greatest Pope in the history of the Holy See, because he not only swept away the heresy of the old god faith, but also completed the mission that all believers should do - he established the God Kingdom on the ground for the Holy Lord.
Theold's robe was blown by the wind. The Pope's robe was supposed to be pure white, but because he was also the first emperor of the holy Empire, there was more gold embroidery on theold's robe than the usual white robe.
Surprisingly, after stepping on the dock, the Pope did not walk along the blanket symbolizing ”holiness and indelibility”, but took a few steps to the side and directly stepped on the land.
”Your Majesty?”
Theolde was followed by Cardinal cecilian, who quietly reminded the Pope.
”I've been thinking about what kind of country this is.” Theold sighed, looking far away in the direction of the Rose Palace. There was still the smell of blood and smoke in the air. Maisen clan leader tried to decorate here, but the smell of blood and fire could not be removed.
Everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to say a word.
During this period, all the victories of the holy army movement under the control of the Pope have made the man with the triple crown firmly stand on the top of power - he has more power than any previous pope!
Theold bent down and, in the astonishment of the crowd, picked up a handful of dirt from the ground.
”Look at the soil.”
He spread out his hands, and the dust rustled down in the wind.
”Soaked in blood.”
He drew a cross in front of his chest and said in a high voice: ”this is because the Lord calls on us to fight for his blood, and asks us to wash the heresy with arrows and fire! Holy, holy! The battle of armies
The others followed him, shouting, ”holy, holy! The battle of armies
Theold's gray pupils watched the sand blown away by the wind, and he showed a meaningful smile:
”holy, holy! The battle of armies
Waves, Holy Land holy army, reach Legrand.
………………
Keya state, senviya fortress.
”Senviya” means ”Guardian” in Keya's language. The stone fortress, named ”senviya”, was built by the people of the whole country after Eleanor was crowned king. It is the first fortress to enter the Keya mountains from east to west. It is the first defense line of the Keya state and the strongest defense line. It is a natural line of defense throughout the southeastern region of Legrand.
The dusk's dark red glow sprinkles on the fortress's wall, which is as majestic as a giant standing among the mountains. In front of the giant was the torrent of the doma river.
In the sound of the river, a cavalry arrived under the senviya fortress in a glow.
Sal looked up at the magnificent fortress built between the mountains and clearly felt that it was the best choice for Legrand to withdraw from Bubbas.
Koya mountain is the birthplace of the doma River and the Uzi River, which are the two major rivers in Legrand. It is also the gateway to the central and western part of Legrand after landing from the southeast coastal port of Legrand. With Keya as the backing and the king's defense to the east of the middle reaches of the doma River, a great wall combining the river, terrain and fortresses can be built.
Only by relying on the terrain of Keya can we resist the 70000 sea holy army.
Sal took a deep breath and led the soldiers to the fort.
From the fortress, the Koya guard asked.
”Five thousand Rosa cavalry, offering General Hearn's order is to defend Keya. ” He raised his head and yelled at the fortress wall.He showed the military order.
He held the order tightly.
The huge noose turns and the iron rope rubs and makes a heavy noise. The suspension bridge was slowly put down, and the heavy gate slowly opened from inside.
”General Sheen's orders? What about general Sheehan? ”
A guard general in a grey robe and a bow and arrow with vine pattern under the robe rode up from behind the gate.
”Yes, on general Sheehan's orders.”
Sal answered his first question.
For the latter question, the general had already guessed some answers from the cavalry's silence. He didn't speak any more. He rode them to the fort.
General Fong heen Yes, at the command of general Sheehan.
Sal closed his eyes.
Sal, we're going to do Protect the Knights of the world.
He led the Rosa cavalry over the heavy suspension bridge, the river under the suspension bridge turbulence. Among the mountains, someone played a long clarinet. The sound of the clarinet was desolate, weeping and crying, echoing in the woods for a long time.
In this war, for the ultimate victory, anyone can sacrifice and die.
……………………
The room was quiet. The wall clock was ticking on the wall, but time seemed to be still. When the housekeeper stepped in here, he saw that he was sitting at the table with his back to him, and the high back chair blocked his figure.
The housekeeper couldn't see his face.
”Queen Eleanor sent back the news that there were seven saints in port herid, and there should be only three saints beside theold. In two weeks' time, a batch of important materials for the construction of the divinity wharf will be transported from the sea to the port of herid. The Empress Dowager will launch an attack on the day the goods arrive at Swan harbor. ”
The head of the house reported important news one by one.
”The holy army of the holy land has landed in the port of Putao, and Pope theold has appeared in the port of Putao. The first personal soldier he carries is the Knights Templar. They didn't move forward immediately. The news that the eternal knights were intercepted should have been known by the other party. The Templar Knights are repairing the Maisen family territory. ”
”On the other side of the hopeless inland sea, the nuggin Empire has arrived at the Holy Spirit Bay. The magic wolf Knights led by hull have burnt down the military port of St. Peter in the Holy Spirit Bay, and are now attacking the third and fourth sanctuaries.”
”In the territory of the holy Empire, there are signs of agitation among the old nobles of Blaise in the northwest. The overseas spies have not yet sent back the exact information about the cause.”
……
The news was reported one by one, and the housekeeper paused and reported the last news: ”the rose cavalry has successfully retreated to the Keya mountains and arrived at senviya fortress. The sea holy army occupied the county of bubas and began to disperse its forces to various villages. To the south of the tributary of the doma River and to the east of the Koya mountains, they were all invaded by the holy army. In addition... ”
He looked at the king with his back to him.
”Besides The people seem to be angry. ”
