Beluga Port, the wharf area.

The dense smoke of gunpowder is like silver-white silk and satin, surrounding the city wall of Beluga Harbor. If there are no roaring guns and roars of fighting, it can even be regarded as a rare and precious sight.

It's just that the jihadist army headquarters at this time was not in the mood to appreciate the scenery. Instead, it kept ups and downs between a good news and a bad news, enjoying the thrill of some kind of extreme sports:

"...The western position was raided and captured by the colonial rebels. At least a thousand enemy troops are interspersing the position, and our army is hard to stop!"

"...The rebel artillery position exposed the target, and Major General Ludwig personally directed the artillery to focus fire and successfully annihilate it!"

"...The artillery fire caused a large number of fortifications in the first line of defense to be destroyed, and the enemy army quickly broke into the middle, until the headquarters of our army was located!"

"...Sir Arthur Hereid personally led the reinforcements to join the battle, destroying the enemy's beheading operation in one fell swoop, and our reserve army is about to counterattack!"

"...The two-wing forts suffered serious blows. The enemy used rapid artillery projectile fire and used explosive bombs to cause a large number of casualties of personnel and equipment. The specific list and list are as follows..."

"...two thousand hussars, under the cover of the flank line of infantry, plunged straight into the flank of the enemy's eastern front army. Although they failed to cause too many casualties, they successfully forced the enemy to slow down their attack speed, creating an opportunity for a successful counterattack..."

...In the hall where the shouts of the messengers echoed repeatedly, Phyllis sat in the center with a numb expression, and even his heart was numb.

As a front-line commander, Ludwig Franz seems to have a peculiar fascination with "reporting work". He seems to have prepared a company... no, at least a battalion of messengers to report for himself. The battle situation on the front line can even be seamlessly connected - just after the previous one left, the next one will arrive.

At first, Phyllis was very happy. After all, no matter whether it is true or false, the more information the better, but he soon realized that there might be a little problem.

That's why he can't remember.

The logistics and staff departments of the Knights of Judgment for this expedition, as well as the most critical difference engine, have followed the "Heart of Mercy" airship into a big fireball in Red Hand Bay, burning nothing; With a mountain of information piled up, Pheleus, who lost his assistants and machine assistance, was drowned in a large amount of useless information.

Obviously, Ludwig didn't want the high command to interfere and interfere with his command at all, but he didn't want to be caught by the Holy See, so he came up with this very vicious idea - even if the high command handled it, it didn't matter. By the time the first order arrived at the scene, there were more than a dozen more, and dozens of pieces of information were sent over, and it was completely possible to use "the situation has changed" to directly prevaricate it.

After all, the speed of issuing orders must not be the same as the efficiency of giving information. If orders are changed day by day, Ludwig not only does not have to obey, but also has a reason to throw the blame in case of defeat.

After several attempts to understand the battlefield, Phylles, who quickly realized the problem, began to play the "Wooden Man" game with all the members of the command. Everyone remained silent and quietly admired the wonderful things Ludwig prepared for everyone. Performance.

Even after the initial irritability, Phyllis realized that there was nothing wrong with this... After all, since Ludwig still has the heart to play "heartbeat jokes" with himself, it means that the defense line outside Beluga Harbor is still impregnable. , there is no risk of being breached by the rebels and entering the city.

From this point of view, Ludwig can even be regarded as a "loyal minister" of the Holy See.

Unfortunately, he is the son of Luther Franz... Pheleus sighed inwardly. According to the information he has obtained, the Holy See is ready to take action against Clovis Diocese.

If the Holy See is compared to a country, then the major dioceses are the powerful lords. According to the size of the territory and the amount of wealth they are responsible for, and the degree of cooperation of the local rulers, the strength of each diocese is determined.

In the past, the most difficult and disobedient in the eyes of the Holy See were the two dioceses of Adran and Xiaolong - the former was the birthplace of the No. 1 anti-thief Universalism, the latter was directly under the imperial emperor, and the local church was almost the royal family of Herid. private church.

But Luther Franz broke their record, not only setting a precedent for a chief to incorporate another parish into his own after the second public order meeting, but also becoming the first to hold both a clerical and a secular title Archbishop.

In the eyes of outsiders, Luther Franz is a loyal elder who is good at solving problems for others, mediating between the Holy See and the Clovis royal family with long sleeves and good dance, and never rejects suggestions and requests from others, and dares to take responsibility. Stand in front of the stage when someone needs to take responsibility and stand out.

But in the eyes of the Holy See, it is completely different - this is a genuine dictator, with an astonishing desire for power and possessiveness. The Clovis Diocese he runs is an independent kingdom, and he never allows the Holy See to intervene in any affairs.

Such a strong archbishop is of course not something that the Holy See can tolerate. If it weren't for the balance between the Empire and Clovis, and Luther Franz was so slick that no one could find any excuses, he would have been linked long ago. The entire Franz family was beheaded.

That's why the rumor of Luther Franz getting rid of this time is also because of balance... According to Phileas' understanding, this holy war has caused the empire to bear too many losses. If Clovis is unscathed, the original The balance will be broken, so they have to pay a little price too.

In terms of military, because Clovis was originally weaker than the Empire, of course he could not act rashly to avoid a chain reaction; under this premise, slaughtering the Franz family seemed to be one of the options with the least cost and the most effective results.

It's just that things won't be as simple as they seem... Pheleus, who was secretly thinking, glanced at the messengers who were still coming into the hall in a row, plus the guys around him who looked like clay puppets They couldn't help but sigh.

After a moment of hesitation, he was motionless and winked at Pavel Dukasky next to him. The court marquis who understood it immediately got up quietly and walked to the smoking room beside him, not forgetting to leave it for the commander-in-chief. Door.

By the time Phyllis walked into the room, Pavel had already placed fresh wine on the round table, as well as snacks wrapped in colored paper in a box that looked like a goblet.

"This is... chocolate?"

Pheleus, who picked up a piece at random, was shocked at first, and then laughed: "The so-called barren and desolate new world can actually eat this?"

"These are just the rest. When we chased away the thugs, we also caught a few chefs who specialize in desserts. It is said that they were originally famous restaurants in North Harbor, Clovis City and Port Edland, and VIPs from wealthy families. They are best at cherries. Cakes, lemon pie and macarons."

The chuckling Pwell poured wine and picked up a few cheese sticks from the tray: "You might as well guess, who hired them here at an astronomical high price?"

"Humph."

Pheleus curled his lips in disdain, and threw the candy back: "It seems that we are still too kind to these heretics and pseudo-believers. As for the old gods...their strength is more than our guess."

"That's right." Pavel also sighed with emotion:

"Although it is true that the power of the entire world of order has been mobilized, we still underestimate the strength of the enemy, so that many jihadist soldiers mistakenly believe that the enemy is very weak, as long as a walk on the beach of the new world can quickly end this battle expedition."

"But you and I both know that this holy war will not come to an end so easily."

Without giving the other party a chance to change the subject, Pheleus directly took a step forward: "An enemy, an enemy of the entire world of order is rising, if you can't gather the strength of all the believers of the ring of order to fight against it, it will inevitably lead to irreversible damage. bitter fruit."

"really…"

Pavel nodded slightly, his eyes becoming playful.

He could vaguely guess that the adjutant of the Grand Commander of the Judgment Knights was planning to win over himself, or the Dukasky and Wolf family behind him, to replace Lewent, who had basically no drama, and become the Holy See's new leader. The world's talkers.

This kind of thing has happened in the past... During the war of sectarian division, the Levant family publicly sided with the Holy See against the Herrid royal family, in exchange for their later strong position in the southern part of the empire and various benefits from the Holy See; now they just want to It's just a re-enactment of the original situation in the new world.

It sounds wonderful, and it's actually wonderful, but Pavel doesn't want to.

Due to some agreements with Anson and his private cooperation with Ludwig, he actually knew the secret operations of those northern giants in the empire, and he knew very well that the Holy See's chance of winning in this holy war was not as big as it seemed. .

Secondly, because of the special inheritance and title factors, the Dukasky family is highly bound to the Herid royal family and the Fire Knight Wolf family at the same time; becoming an agent of the Holy See sounds beautiful, but it is also a betrayal of the emperor. .

If Pavel's surname was Wolf, he would probably agree without hesitation; but if his surname is Dukasky, then this matter must be carefully considered. For a court marquis who relied on historical issues, does he have any questions? Qualifications to challenge imperial power?

No, don't even think about it, it's really not at all.

But Phylles didn't realize what the problem was. In his eyes, the Dukasky family was almost the spokesperson of the Wolf family, and he was directly talking to the leader of the Grand Duchy of Brahm—this was also a great deal. Most people know about the Dukaski family.

Now that the Fernando Legion was completely wiped out, and they humiliated and surrendered to the enemy with a white flag, it was impossible for the Holy See to step back 10,000 steps to protect the interests of Emperor Herid in the New World. Another flag had to be erected to facilitate future operations.

In fact, the most suitable candidate was Bernard Morwes. He is a southerner and has a close relationship with the Levant family; but this guy finally joined the Bernard family and became a prisoner of the enemy; Arthur Not to mention Herrid, it’s still reluctant to be a sign, and I’m afraid that it’s not as good as the Holy See to end the game in person.

Pavel Dukasky became a choice without a choice.

"But as you know, the Holy See must not interfere in secular politics; but if you want to build a real jihadist army in the new world that can fight the enemy for a long time, it must be supported by secular power."

Phileus, who is not giving up, intends to continue to follow the good guidance: "This requires not only a noble background, but also an undisputed appeal, a diplomatic ability to mediate various forces, and an outstanding leadership charisma - not as a general. , but the commander-in-chief, standing above ten thousand people, the commander-in-chief who decides the life and death of countless believers."

"Marquis Pavel, are Brahm's knights really not interested in this glory?"

Sensing that the opponent's eyes were always evading, Phyllis directly hit a straight ball, and simply put the words on the table: "If Hereid is the guardian of the orderly world, then I personally think that Dukasky The family is fully qualified to be the guardian of the new world."

"Cough cough cough cough...!!"

Pavel coughed violently, his eyes erratic and kept glancing in the direction of the door: "Lord Phyllis, I think we should pause for a while, there seems to be some movement in the hall outside..."

"There's no need for that!" Without giving him a chance to interrupt at all, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Phileas directly steals:

"The outcome of this war is doomed, the false believers will fall under the sword of the jihadists; but the enemies of the Old Gods and the Ring of Order have not, they will continue to come back, trying time and time again to bring this A piece of land has become a stronghold for their counterattack."

"As true jihadists, we have two choices: sit back and watch this happen, or take the initiative to take on the mission of fighting for the Ring of Order."

"Now that the mission has come, how you choose is of course up to you; but I really feel from the bottom of my heart that the Dukasky family, who inherited the blood of the Fire Knights, will become a beacon that ignites the fire of faith in the new world!"

"lamp…"

The corners of Pavel's mouth twitched, resisting his panic and pointing in the direction of the door: "That, Sir Phyllis, it's not that I don't want to promise you, it's really too loud outside, I think We really should go out..."

"That's right, let them go!" Phyllis smashed the wine glass on the ground with a "crack!"

"I will only ask you this one sentence now. What is the answer from you...and the Dukasky family on whether to fight for the Ring of Order?!"

"I…"

Pavel, who was completely cornered, stopped speaking abruptly.

The next second, a sudden loud noise went straight through the entire house. The howling air wave brushed over the heads of the two of them, and instantly crushed the decorations and wine into powder.

Then, it was a series of explosions.

"Boom!"
