Chapter 71

Newcastle is held.

The suspension bridge was lowered, and the Knights stepped into the unfinished Castle amid the cheers of the soldiers guarding the city. After entering the gate, the Knights took off their helmets one after another. The commander found that many of the people in the front of the cavalry had some white hair.

The soul of this cavalry is composed of these old men who have been fighting with the Duke of Buckingham for many years.

When the Duke of Buckingham entered the castle, he did not rest and called in the commander of Newcastle.

There were not many royal soldiers and old soldiers following him. The victory of the battle was due to the surprise measures taken by the Duke of Buckingham. Now the most important thing is not to completely defeat one or two anti rebel forces, but to guard this important military castle for the king.

The map is spread out on the table, and the commander reports to the Duke of Buckingham about Newcastle during this period.

This uprising in the North was a long planned rebellion.

After the rebel forces cut off the transportation line from the southwest to angul, the construction work of Newcastle castle had to stagnate. The area north of Newcastle castle is completely in the hands of the rebels, and the situation West and East will not be much better. At the beginning of the war, the commander devoted all his strength to defense except sending letters to the palace.

"But it's bad."

The commander said helplessly.

"The castle is too badly damaged."

The Duke of Buckingham nodded slightly.

Newcastle had not been built. This time, the enemy's attack at all costs almost destroyed all the defenses in the north of the castle. When the tower collapsed, part of the city wall was also damaged. When the rebels regroup, the castle will be hard to hold.

There is only one way to keep the castle:

attack instead of defense.

It is the rebel army led by Prince will of Newcastle, who is closer to Newcastle, that is likely to launch another attack on Newcastle castle.

Prince will was stationed in the town of Werner, and the defeated rebels would soon send back the news of the defeat. The Duke of Buckingham made a quick decision after consulting with the generals.

As soon as the siege was over, the scouts were sent to the castle.

They were ordered to spy on Prince Will's army.

Without waiting long, the scouts brought back the information the Duke of Buckingham wanted.

As the Duke of Buckingham judged, prince will, who was stationed in the town of karna, led his army to prepare for a second siege. They walked along the road between the Laixi River and Newcastle castle, because they carried a lot of siege equipment, the speed was not fast.

After a few days of rest, the energetic cavalry once again followed the Duke of Buckingham.

They left the castle and headed for a slope down the Lacey River, which has been a battlefield since ancient times. On the edge of the slope there is a sparse forest.

The Duke of Buckingham's army will wait for the enemy after the woods.

Deep channel.

The sea is as deep as ink, and the wind is rough. In the fury of the waves, ships with big white sails were sailing through the waves. In the middle of those white sails is the Holy Cross. On the deck, the sailors worked orderly, while on the deck, there were others.

They were well-dressed in armour, with cross marks on their coats.

The dress of these people shows their identity.

The order of the Templars.

The white shelled ship was on the east coast of the abyss channel, all the way up to Blaise.

The identity of these ships is clear - they are Temple ships that have long been out of sight. Hundreds of warships broke through the waves, and the holy ship of the Holy See did not disappear, as some people suspected. On the contrary, they have become more terrifying, bigger and more unstoppable.

Ships, knights.

The holy court drew out his sword for the Lord of hosts.

They will use this fire and sword to build God's kingdom on the earth.

The Knights didn't see the black butterflies flitting over their heads.

The devil arrived at Blaise one step earlier than the forces of the Holy See.

On the west side of the abyss channel, Legrand is experiencing war, and Blaise is Legrand's brother - it is also facing war.

The devil opened his black umbrella and walked calmly in a city of Blaise.

The sky is gray, the streets from time to time there are knights galloping by, and everywhere in the city is the high hanging flag of the cross. This means that the city has accepted the rule of the Holy See.

"Yes. It's a quick move. "

The devil raised his umbrella a little and watched a tulip flag torn down and thrown into the stinky ditch.

At the coronation of ferry III, the Pope took out the letter that crimo V had written to the Holy See.——The letter promising to hand over the whole lowland territory and the secular dominion of the western part of the kingdom to the Holy See.

With the "gift of crimo V", the Pope asked the new king of Blaise, ferry III, for the power due to the Holy See, and claimed that "it was because the emperor of Blaise had forgotten his promised donation to the Holy Lord that the great plague of black death was ushered in, which was the divine punishment of the Holy Lord, and only timely repentance could be redeemed.".

After the identification of the present brescian aristocracy, the letter was indeed written by crimo V himself.

The Vatican was aggressive, and most of the nobles defected to the Vatican. It is said that the scene that day was also a very frequent drama.

Ferri III took the pressure.

He used a delaying tactic, claiming that there was a need for careful discussion on the specific scope of the western region presented to the holy see in the letter, and that the two sides needed a more formal agreement. After the papal mission left the capital, Ferri III immediately turned his face. Instead of handing over the western part of the Kingdom, he began to mobilize the army.

As revenge for the treachery of Felix III, the Pope immediately announced:

expel Felix III from the church, abolish his monarchy, lift the pledge of allegiance to Felix III from the subjects of Blaise, call on the Lords of Blaise to fight against the sinners for the Holy Lord, and call on the sons of Blaise to overthrow the monarch who brought them disaster. [1]

Prince Charles was the first to respond to the Pope's call when he was defeated by ferry III in the race for the throne.

A large-scale civil war broke out.

But is it really just a civil war?

The devil, holding an umbrella, watched a black carriage pass in front of him.

In the carriage, there are exquisite relief, fire and snake coiled on the cross, and the cross is like a sword, nailed to the snake.

This is the coach of the tribunal.

The black iron carriage could not shield the devil. He knew clearly that there were two masked friars in the carriage.

"A little gift."

Said the devil briskly.

He didn't forget that these guys tried to tear up the king's soul last time. What a joke! How many things he has done so far in order to take away his Majesty's soul.

With a snap of the devil's fingers, the black flame burned silently in the carriage.

The friar in black in the carriage realized that it was not right. He grabbed the iron sword and wanted to get up. However, he found that the carriage seemed to be sealed directly and could not be opened by them. They can only watch the snake like flame surrounding themselves, the heat of terror seems to be burning the soul together.

The ordinary people who come and go on the street are ignorant of it.

The devil did a little trick.

They didn't see the carriage at all, and they didn't know that not far away from them, there was a devil who followed the example of the holy court and held a "fire penalty" for the friars of the magistracy.

"Ah, I hope you remember --"

the devil's lips slightly up.

"Next time, don't reach out to other people's treasures."

There was an indescribable coldness in his smile.

Even people with the carriage into a pile of ashes, the devil as if nothing had happened to continue to move forward.

As for how much trouble it will bring to the rulers of this city that the adjudicator of the Holy See disappears out of thin air What's that got to do with him?

His target is St. Val's Cathedral in Brescia.

It is said that a sacred object of the Holy See was preserved there.

How come there are so many shameful thieves in this world who love to take other people's things for themselves?

The devil thought, holding a black umbrella, he quietly melted into the darkness.

Behind him, a cavalry trotted by, joining the army of Ferri III.

………………

Roger, the king has arrived at the Rose Palace.

"The Holy See has been preparing for a long time."

The King opened the last letter from Blaise.

This is the last one because the rest of the overseas agents belonging to Legrand in Blaise are hard to reach.

It's about the mess Blaise is in.

Blaise was more affected by the black death than Legrand.

In the black death, Blaise was infected city after city, and the dead piled up like mountains. In the face of the black death, the brachy royal family was powerless. The Pope's mission cured the patients on the way to coronate Ferri III, which made the doctors helpless.

In this contrast, the concept of "the Lord's punishment" has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

And when the Holy See comes up with "the gift of crimo V" and asks Ferri III to atone for the royal family's cheating on the Lord, it will be more easily recognized by the public.

There was no way out for Philip III.

The king was not surprised by Blaise's current situation.A country, bowing down in front of the holy court for a long time, willingly gives its neck to the enemy, sacrificing other countries for survival What can such a timid country do in a hurry when the sword of the holy court falls on its head?

It is a sin to help the tyrant.

The king put down the letter.

General Sheehan came in and told him that everything was ready.

The king nodded slightly.

Soon, the housekeeper came in. He helped himself to see the big king wearing armor. It wasn't really his duty, but he asked the king and the king promised him.

"The old king is with you."

The housekeeper shakes his hands and arranges the armor for the king.

He stepped back and looked with pride at the king armed with silver armor.

The cold armor gave the king a completely different atmosphere from usual. At this time, the luxury of the palace was wiped away, leaving only pure dignity, which was the iron and blood soul of the rose family for generations.

Rose family was born with sword, fire and blood.

"You will win!"

The interior manager's eyes were slightly moist.

The king did not speak, he nodded slightly, and then walked out of the Rose Palace with general sheen.

Today, METZL Castle rarely has snow.

The sky is dazzling.

General John was waiting outside the gate. He watched the king come with his horse and bow down.

The king reined in the reins and looked down at him. "I hope you'll have your sword and iron gloves ready when I come back."

"I will."

General John answered in a loud voice.

The king did not look at him again, nor did he make any more stops.

Outside the city, waiting for the king was an army ready to go.

At the front is the king's rosehorse.

Like the king, they were shrouded in a murderous atmosphere. They were riding on tall horses. Both men and horses were wearing heavy plate armour and chest armour. The sun was shining on their armour, reflecting a sharp light. Rose cavalry launched hundreds of scarlet King's flags.

After the rose cavalry, it was the cavalry led by the local lords, who held the flag representing their families.

In front of the various colors of the flag, the hundreds of red king flag is like a wave.

The horse's hooves are kicking.

King Le Ma, stopped in front of everyone, his eyes swept the army of his own.

The sun hung over the king, drawing sharp lines on the edge of his armor.

"Let's go!"

The king gave a sharp order.

The horses galloped, the armor rubbed and made a loud sound. All the flags were blown up by the wind and spread out into a murderous sea. The torrent of man and horse, iron and flesh surged up because of the king's will.

This is 1433.

On the East Bank of the abyss channel, the kingdom of God on the earth is being established, the light of the Holy Spirit is spreading with the will of the Pope, the warships are crisscrossing over the raging waves, and the Knights of the temple are about to set foot on the battlefield. On the West Bank of the abyss channel, the rogrand rebellion is on the rise, and the weak, such as angel, Newcastle, lowland countries He was also involved in the whirlpool.

As if overnight, the whole world was lit by war.

This year, the king himself went to war.

The author has something to say: [1] that is, the "decree of absolute punishment" of the Pope to the monarch in the middle ages. The most famous papal amnesty in history was issued by Gregory VII, who announced the abolition of Henry IV, lifted the pledge of allegiance to his subjects, and the bishop who supported Henry IV was either stopped or threatened with excommunication. As a result, the power of Henry IV was weakened rapidly, and the Saxony turmoil happened at that time. Finally, Henry IV had to confess to the Pope.

John, the land lost king of England, was also excommunicated.
