"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1263
The red-clothed general Eugene led his army all the way to the rescue of the holy land that had been burned into ruins.
Seeing that the resplendent churches and palaces have become black ruins, the statues of the gods have also been smashed to pieces.
Facing the messy holy land, the red-clothed general Eugene swayed and almost fell off his horse.
You must know that the Holy Land is their most respected place, and it is also the place of their belief, but now it has been destroyed by the cavalry of the Qinghe Army commanded by Fatty Lu.
"Those who blaspheme the gods will surely be cursed by the gods! They will die without a place to bury them!"
Eugene's eyes were red, and his teeth were gritted, as if he wanted to swallow alive the enemy who had destroyed the Holy Land.
The knight cavalry who followed the red-clothed general Eugene also had red eyes, their facial muscles twitched, and they were ashen.
Fatty Lu destroyed the most sacred place in their hearts. For these loyal believers, this is hundreds of times stronger than the hatred of killing their father or taking their wife!
"Search for survivors!"
Facing the collapsed and destroyed holy land, the furious general Eugene ordered a search for survivors to find the whereabouts of the pope and the saint.
You must know that the pope and the saint are the souls of their entire Holy See, and the Holy Land may not be there, but if the Pope and the Saint have any troubles, then the faith of the entire Holy See will collapse.
A large number of cavalry from the Skitarii Knights got off their horses and entered the ruins that had been burned to pieces, searching for survivors.
In fact, when the Qinghe army set fire to destroy the city, most of the people had already fled, and the nobles had already gone to see Lord Yan.
Therefore, apart from the charred corpses that the soldiers of the Skitarii Knights searched for, there were no living people in the huge ruins.
"General, we have found traces of the enemy in nearby towns."
When the cathars were searching for survivors and the whereabouts of the pope and others in the Holy Land, there were also scouts on light cavalry to spy around.
Soon they discovered that there were still battles in the surrounding towns, and those were stragglers who were trapped in the camp by the servants of the Qinghe Army.
When Fatty Lu withdrew, all these evil-doing servants were disbanded on the spot, and they were left to fend for themselves.
Without the restraint of the Qinghe Army, these murderous, vicious and violent servants became even more brutal.
Although the Holy Land was captured, the surrounding towns were still in the hands of the Skitarii, so they attacked and looted these towns.
"Send a large army to wipe them out, and be sure to find His Majesty the Pope!"
Knowing that the enemy was still active in the surrounding area, General Eugene in red immediately dispatched a large army to dispatch quickly.
In order to deal with the cavalry unit of Fatty Lu of the Qinghe Army, almost all the soldiers and horses from all over the Holy See gathered in the Krall Plain.
This time, more than 100,000 cavalry troops rushed back to help the Holy See, so they are now powerful.
The angry catastrophe knights quickly dispatched. Facing these powerful knights roaring in and out, those servants who were doing evil were naturally no match.
After all, the servant army has been disbanded by Fatty Lu on the spot, and they have now been dispersed into many units. Without a unified and effective command, their combat effectiveness will naturally be greatly reduced.
Facing the siege of the elite Guardian Knights, these servants were soon defeated and fled in all directions.
But how could the two legs run faster than the four legs of the cavalry of the Knights? The angry Knights carried out a bloody massacre of these servants.
One of the senior generals of the servant army was captured, and after being tortured, he finally revealed some information that the red-clothed general Eugene found valuable.
That was when the Qinghe army captured the Holy Land, their pope had already escaped from the secret passage ahead of time, and did not fall into the hands of the Qinghe army.
After hearing the news, the general in red, Eugene, was also overjoyed. If there was no Pope, the Holy See might fall apart and fall into a state of melee.
However, if the Pope is still alive, the Holy See, despite the heavy losses this time, has avoided the situation of melee and division.
General Eugene in red quickly dispatched a large number of people to search for the whereabouts of the pope in all directions, centering on the burned holy place.
Soon they found it in a small village near the mountainThe pope who was once aloof.
It was already a hasty escape, and he did not dare to reveal his identity easily to avoid being assassinated by others, so although the Pope knew that Eugene was back, he did not dare to show his face easily.
It wasn't until after observing for a while that the pope dared to show up, and reappeared in the sight of everyone.
Facing the ragged and bearded pope, general Eugene in red was also taken aback, almost thinking that he had encountered a liar.
However, the majesty of the pope's long-standing position cannot be pretended. After all, thanks to the rescue, the general in red, Eugene, respectfully took the pope into the army.
"The enemy burned the holy place, blasphemed the gods, unforgivable, issued a reward order, beheading the enemy's head, a reward of one gold coin, beheading the enemy general, a reward of 10 million gold coins! Promoted to the red-clothed archbishop!"
After the pope bathed and changed clothes in the cathars, he finally recovered from the state of being displaced.
Thinking of the Holy Land being burned to ruins and fleeing in embarrassment, the Pope felt a backlog of anger.
He has now realized that it is no longer realistic to simply rely on the strength of the Skitarii to destroy this group of enemies.
Therefore, the Pope also used these enemies to burn the Holy Land and blaspheme the gods as an excuse to mobilize the power of the entire Holy See, preparing to encircle and suppress Fatty Lu and the others.
In order to encourage those city lords, bishops, and nobles with private soldiers to dispatch, the Pope also spent a lot of money this time.
Soon, hundreds of messengers conveyed the Pope's will to the four directions at a speed of eight hundred miles.
There is never a shortage of desperadoes in this world, especially when the interest is as high as 300%.
Many believers who believed in gods heard that the holy land was destroyed and the gods were desecrated, and there was no need to encourage them, so they immediately regarded Fatty Lu and the others as enemies with deep hatred.
Those unarmed believers gathered in groups of three or four, holding sickles and hoes, and started to move one after another.
The city lords and bishops of all levels also took action one after another. After all, the Pope offered a generous reward, so they would naturally not miss this opportunity.
Therefore, the situation in the Holy See suddenly changed. Those armed forces who took advantage of the fire, bandits, patrol battalions in various cities, and the guards of the city lords all quickly stood in the same camp.
The cavalry unit of the Qinghe Army led by Fatty Lu quickly withdrew home with a large amount of spoils.
They felt that they had dealt a heavy blow to the Holy See. The other party did not have three to five years to recover.
In particular, the main force of the Skitarii was almost behind them, so their way back home was unimpeded, so they didn't realize that they had stabbed a hornet's nest this time.
