"Your Majesty the Pope, Your Majesty the Pope!"
In the solemn and solemn temple, when the saint Serena was leaning on the Pope, giggling and laughing, suddenly the urgent voice of Cardinal Wolfe sounded outside the hall.
After hearing Wolfe's voice, Saint Serena quickly left the pope who was relying on her, and tidied up her appearance.
"Your Majesty the Pope, something serious has happened!"
The archbishop in red who hurried into the temple was out of breath, and shouted in panic when he saw the pope sitting there and the saint Serena standing aside.
"Wolf, what happened?"
After the Pope withdrew his gaze from the graceful body of Saint Serena, he asked seriously.
"Defeated, the front line has been defeated." Archbishop Wolf in red said in a panic.
"Is the Far Eastern Army defeated across the board?"
After hearing the words of Archbishop Wolf in red, the Pope also looked happy.
He recruited all the troops of the Holy See, just to defeat the Far East Army in one fell swoop, and carve up the Far East with the coalition countries.
At that time, their Holy See will not only lose a powerful neighbor who threatens them, but they will also gain vast land, population, property, etc.
"no no."
Seeing that the pope had misunderstood the idea, Cardinal Wolf also hastily corrected it.
The Pope thought he was happy when he saw that Cardinal Wolf could not speak clearly.
"We were defeated, and Marshal Caesar was captured."
Seeing the pope sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, Archbishop Wolf in red was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and explained anxiously.
"What, we lost the battle?"
The Pope was also taken aback, his face full of disbelief.
"How is it possible? We have an army of nearly a million. How could we be defeated? Where did you hear the rumor?" The pope asked, staring at Cardinal Wolf.
"Your Majesty the Pope, we are really defeated." Wolfe said with a panicked face.
"A noble officer fled back from the front line. I heard that the Far East Army has advanced to the hinterland of our Holy See, and now it has reached the Lion River Basin."
"What?!"
After hearing these words, the pope also changed his face suddenly, and stood up abruptly.
Commander Caesar's army suffered a defeat on the front line, causing no one to report the battle to the Holy Land.
If it weren't for some noble officers who fled the battlefield and fled back to the Holy Land first, the Pope and others are still in the dark.
These aristocratic officers had horses to ride on, so they fled desperately. Those ordinary cataracts walked on two legs, so naturally the message transmission was slower.
"Your Majesty the Pope, the news I have received is absolutely true. Our army is indeed defeated," said Archbishop Wolf in red.
The Pope was also stunned for a while, before recovering from the huge shock.
It never occurred to him that their army of nearly one million would be defeated. This was something he could hardly accept.
But he also knew that Cardinal Wolfe had always been steady, and he was not a person who talked nonsense.
When he heard that the wolf cavalry in the grassland had suffered a disastrous defeat, the Pope was secretly happy for a while.
He felt that the Far East Army transferred its main force to fight the wolf cavalry, so they could take advantage of the gap and win a big victory.
And after occupying the Far Eastern Empire in the future, they will get more without the grasslands to divide the land.
But what he never expected was that it didn't take long before he heard the news of their defeat on the front line.
"Quickly, immediately issue a summoning order to summon the nobles and defenders from all over the place to gather in the Holy Land to defend the Holy Land!"
After the Far Eastern Army defeated their front-line army, they have advanced to the Lion River Basin, and their holy land is also in jeopardy.
The Pope still has lingering fears about the previous fall of the Holy Land, but he doesn't want the Holy Land to suffer another catastrophe.
"By the way, quickly send someone to the front line to bring back more detailed news!"
The Pope doesn't know the specific situation on the front line now. Although he knows that the battle has been defeated, he doesn't know the specific situation of each army or the strength of the Far Eastern Army's offensive. He wants to know these things urgently.
Archbishop Wolf in red was completely flustered after hearing the defeat.
Seeing that the Pope quickly made the deployment, he felt a little more at ease, and after a reply, he hurriedlyHe turned around and left the temple, and hurriedly went to carry out the order.
With the deployment made by the Pope, Cardinal Wolf seemed to have a backbone, and he did things quickly.
Soon, through questioning the noble officers who fled back to the Holy Land, they finally figured out the specific details of the defeat on the front line.
However, they didn't know much about the advance of the Far East Army. After all, those noble officers ran for their lives all the way, so they didn't care about knowing the enemy's situation.
They just know that many big cities in the Lion River Basin have already fallen, and the fleeing refugees and defeated soldiers are marching towards the Krall Plain, the Holy Land and other places, and the Far Eastern Army is chasing after them.
After the Pope got a more detailed report on the situation, his old wrinkled face was full of sadness.
He knew that the front line was defeated, but he didn't expect that the defeat would be so tragic. Hundreds of thousands of troops died directly, some were captured, some were broken up, and some were even withdrawn without an organizational system.
He originally thought of ordering the retreating troops to stop the Far East Army along the way, to buy time for the Holy Land's battle.
Now it seems that this is completely impossible. From the front line to the holy land, the cities along the way are almost undefended.
This time they put all their troops and civilians on the front line in a desperate attempt, leaving the rear empty.
There are only a small number of noble guards and city lord guards left in various places. These forces want to stop the menacing Far East Army, which is simply a dream.
Facing the rapidly deteriorating situation, the Pope suddenly realized that the Holy See had reached its most dangerous moment.
"How much army do we have that we can use now?" The Pope asked Cardinal Wolf.
"There is also a knight order of 5,000 people in the Holy Land. Apart from that, there are only city guards and noble guards from all over the place." Red Archbishop Wolfe said.
"Assemble the army as quickly as possible, and all those who can take up arms to fight will be included in the army! Defend the Holy Land!" the Pope ordered.
"But even if soldiers can be summoned, there are not enough weapons to use."
This time, in order to arm the front-line troops, the Holy See almost emptied the weapons they had stored.
"If you don't have enough weapons, make them yourself and let blacksmiths around the world make spears"
Facing the crisis situation, the pope also had to cram for the time being. It was not easy to make war knives, but it took time to make some sharp spear points.
"Quickly ask for help from the Hanhai Dynasty, and hope that they can send troops to help us because we are all coalition forces."
On the one hand, the Pope is actively recruiting troops to defend the Holy Land, and on the other hand, he is urgently asking for help from his friendly neighbor, the Hanhai Dynasty.
After all, they have formed a coalition with the Hanhai Dynasty, Prairie Wolf Cavalry, etc. If they are finished, the Hanhai Dynasty will be alone.
But the pope also knew that the long-distance water could not quench the near-thirst, and they had to resist for a period of time until the arrival of the vast sea army. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
