Chapter 394. Information from the Dark Red Sect
War is brutal.
A well-trained, victorious streak, and a highly motivated unit is an elite division.
Unless the morale of the enemy is severely depressed due to the tragic battle situation, the unparalleled morale of ordinary battles, and the bravery brought about by consecutive victories, can crush the enemy army.
Not to mention the inferior troops that had once been on the north bank of the Resniston River, armed with defeated soldiers and farmers.
Take on the elite troops with low morale with inferior troops on the verge of collapse.
Even if it's a half-way attack.
Even if it's a wreck.
But it is still impossible to explain how to win.
What's more, the commander of the main force of the Silverplate Kingdom was not stupid, but was still led by a well-known earl in the country, and he was on the south bank of the Resneston River, and also captured Nazaire Fort, which was originally under the jurisdiction of the Eastern County.
This led to the collapse of the battle situation in the East County Territory, and the rout retreated to the East County City on the north bank.
There were even plans at the time.
Preparations have already begun.
The Eastern Commander abandoned the capital city of Wintershire and led the remaining troops to shrink to Avilésburg.
If you can't even hold Fort Avilés, then break through to the east and retreat to the North County Territory, at least at that time, the barren North County Territory is not the first line of the burning war, and can be built as a large rear.
At that time, the war situation was rotten, and even the southern county leaders directly under the royal family were too busy to take care of themselves.
On the north bank of the Risniston River, Fort Wati and Fort Lobito were in tatters, and it is said that tens of thousands of people died.
Although the dead were all mercenaries and armed militias.
The real aristocratic troops did not die much.
However, Grand Duke Cameron personally led his troops to launch a surprise attack, and took advantage of the opportunity of Baron Dylan's betrayal of the Silver Plate Kingdom to contain reinforcements at that time, and finally won that victory.
Of course, the details of the victory have not yet been disclosed, but from ten years ago to the present, there is less land.
Many nobles have also changed a lot in their hearts.
After negotiations.
Located in Fort Nazaire on the south bank of the River Resniston, Countess Agatha was ceded to the Kingdom of Silverplate.
This is also the main reason for the biggest conflict between Count Agatha and Archduke Cameron, and even the closure of the two sides, allowing the Eastern County Territory to become independent.
Because of the loss of Fort Nazaire on the south bank, the eastern county town on the north bank of the river is equal to no danger to defend.
More to say.
The entire Dongjun City was open and exposed in front of the soldiers of the Silver Plate Kingdom.
The key thing is that even Viscount Gibran, who once saved the Eastern Commandery and achieved a generation of famous generals, began to listen to the announcement, completely to become a semi-independent warlord within the semi-independent Eastern Commandery.
He also took complete control of the only castle in the Eastern County Territory, Avilés Castle.
If you are truly independent.
With the military strength at the disposal of Viscount Gibran.
It is estimated that Countess Agatha really has no choice, and can only watch it happen independently.
Although Dongjun City is a capital city with a developed economy, it is not an excellent military town, and its military strength may only be able to protect itself, and it is impossible to go out to conquer.
This is also the reason why Countess Agatha let Bertreme go to Avilésburg.
The art of political compromise.
Plain.
It was a consolation and appeasement to Viscount Gibran.
It is also a secret warning and nail planting for this famous general.
Kant, who has been living in this world for 16 years in this lion principality, is of course very clear about similar methods, which are the most popular methods used by nobles and will not be too counterproductive.
It's just that everyone didn't expect that Viscount Gibran, the old famous general, would have changed himself.
Or completely surrender to the fall of the abyss demon!
There was silence in the tent.
Kant's thoughts diverged, and everyone was silent.
Just waiting quietly, it was Bertreim, who also bowed his head and knelt like fate, without the sense of honor he once had as a knight, and humiliated him was like the humblest slave.
However, for him who was born as a nobleman in the court, this was not something difficult to accept.
Just grovel.
Once upon a time, his father, the sheriff of the eastern county town, and his mother, who secretly controlled a caravan, had warned him that if he wanted to live, he had to grovel.
Bertreum now felt that he was right.
As for the knightly honor.
Nothing to use.
Looking at the big knight in a circle next to him, Bertreum felt depressed.
I don't know when it began, there are so many great knights who have mastered extraordinary powers, and he once thought that the three senior brothers of Avilesburg were the great knights who hid their identities, which was scary enough.
But now there are 30 great knights, isn't that more than the great knights of the Lion Principality!
Bertreme's heart was beating even more violently.
Think of Viscount Gibran.
All of them have changed into legendary demons, which makes him feel a throbbing from his soul in this world.
This is due to the fear of the unknown!
"Interesting."
Kant's divergent thinking has returned.
Looking at Bertreim, who was kneeling on the ground in front of him, his face was covered with cold sweat, the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "The bloody battle ten years ago, there are really many secrets that we don't know, it's really interesting." ”
"Yes." Bertreme just responded knee-jerk.
"That's what makes me curious."
Kant finally asked the point: "The power of Viscount Gibran can never appear out of thin air, there must be a reason, so do you know where this power comes from, or how it is obtained?" ”
"This force..."
There was a struggle in Bertreum's eyes.
But he still closed his eyes and replied dejectedly: "The Death Mountain, the mountain where thousands of people were executed, has long been controlled by a religious force called the Dark Red Sect. ”
"Death Mountain, the Crimson Sect."
When Kant heard the name of the place, he nodded thoughtfully: "It's really interesting." ”
Interesting indeed.
Previously, Viscount Gibran had said this place name when he left.
Death Hill is the iconic peak of the Eastern Commandery.
It's like the Lion Mountains in the South Counties.
The Sanwaya Mountains of the Northern Commandery.
Moreover, when Viscount Gibran left, he also said that if he wanted to know everything, he would have to go to the Death Hill to find him.
Of course, it is definitely not a good thing after going, the biggest possibility is the Hongmen Banquet, now that he knows that the Dark Red Sect is secretly developing there, Kant will naturally not be even more arrogant.
Even if his current troops are strong enough.
But it's not overly powerful either.
Unless the main force is mobilized!
As for the Dark Red Sect, Kant didn't know what this organization was, not to mention that he only heard the nouns now and didn't know anything, even if he was in the academy, he had never heard of it.
And thinking of the abyss demon, Kant only knows that the one who once appeared in the Lion Principality worships the Demon Sect!
"This is the remnant of the Demon Cult."
Seeing that Kant was thoughtful, Bertreum did not hide it, but nodded directly in acknowledgement.
Although he didn't have access to the core secrets in Avilésburg, he could still roughly understand some things: "Actually, Viscount Gibran's family, so far, has always been a cult of demons, although the belief is not deep, but there is a lot of contact, and financial assistance is also provided, but I didn't expect to really come into contact with the existence of demons now." ”
"Sure enough." Kant nodded, this was not unexpected, for the fact that the Dark Red Sect was composed of the remnants of the Demon Sect, he also understood his enemy.
But after the events in the Sanwaya Mountains, he didn't think it was just a sect.
Maybe there really is the so-called Abyss Demon.
The supreme lord of the demons of hell, the lord of sin, the flaming whipper.
Frances.
Maybe it's still a complete body demon that has broken free from the seal and is still lurking and recuperating!
At that time, this battle will be much more tragic than in the dungeon, if there is no seal, the abyss demon can replenish its strength at any time, it is enough to defeat an elite army of a thousand people.
Maybe I won't be hurt much.
Kant needed to pay attention.
Frowning slightly.
He looked at Bertreum and asked, "Didn't the God of War Sect react?" ”
"Nope."
Bertreum smiled bitterly: "It has been ten years since the lockdown of the Eastern County Territory, and although commercial activities are not prohibited, the official has been severely restricted and excluded, even in terms of religion, it has been extremely severely isolated. ”
"I really underestimated the closure of the East County Territory." Kant muttered to himself.
Originally, I thought it was just an official closure.
Unexpectedly, even religion has been severely restricted.
Now that I think about it, maybe the situation is not what I thought it was at all.
After all, the current Dongjun Territory has already seen traces of demons, and even Gibran, the strongest general in charge of a county, is the devil's servant and lackey, so the situation of the entire Dongjun Territory.
Maybe it's like the seemingly unwavering surface of the sea.
But there's a dark tide down there!
"Your Excellency."
Rolf, who was listening next to him, spoke at this time: "Dongjun City, don't go." ”
He said worriedly: "The current situation is obviously not as simple as we once preset, and now it seems that even if it is the North County Territory, the situation is not as complicated as the East County Territory!" ”
"It's complicated."
Kant nodded.
However, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Dongjun City still has to go." ”
Rolf said anxiously, "But..."
"Nothing."
Kant waved his hand.
At this point, he will definitely not back down, the most important thing is the layout of the Eastern County Territory, which is related to his plan to attack the entire Lion Principality, if it fails here, then he can only be trapped and locked in the Naren Desert.
Perhaps in a short period of time, it is unlikely that the strategic layout of breaking out of the northern county territory will appear again.
And the situation in the Narun Desert is more complicated.
In the depths there are resurrected god-born spirits.
Beneath the mountains lies the reviving Abyssal Demons.
If Kant continues to stay in the Naren Desert and live a stupid life of being strong and invincible, then he will really be dizzy, and it is estimated that it will not take the next ten years to explode on the spot.
It's really like a "bang".
And then disappear.
