Heart of Empire Chapter 577: The Dilemma of the Holy Empire (Part 2)
In this case, even though the Holy See was unhappy with Schindler in every possible way, he still had to pinch his nose and beg in the end.
Schindler was not willing to send troops. Even after several times in succession, the envoys of the Holy See lowered their posture, but they failed to impress Verina or Her Majesty Dane.
If there is no actual benefit, why should Schindler send troops?
The Holy Empire has always been used to being domineering, and they have always made demands and conditions on others, but when they were raised conditions, it was very rare.
This can be seen from the actual benefits they proposed to be divided to Schindler.
In the beginning, they hoped to persuade Schindler to send troops in the name of righteousness, but they were resolutely rejected;
Then, they proposed to recognize the status of the Kingdom of Schindler, the status of the Lord of the Bull, the recognition of the Duchy of Florence and the Lord of the Bull as the vassal states of Schindler, and the admission of Schindler. Lyle's entry into the Holy Alliance is a condition in exchange for His Majesty Dane's willingness to send troops.
Isn't this a curse? When did Schindler need the recognition of the Holy Empire, and when did he expect to join the Holy Alliance?
Besides, how rude is it to take something that is already a Schindler as a condition in exchange for help?
The arrogance of the Prome newcomer has reached an unreasonable level.
This time, Verina didn't even bother to speak in a formulaic and gentle tone, and directly taunted the emperor of the Holy Empire, His Majesty the Pope, in front of the envoy.
"The ignorant and arrogant pope can't even see the current situation clearly, and has a pair of white eyes. The arrogant attitude, the so-called wisdom, is worse than the most stupid pig."
The messenger was so angry that he walked away.
But after a few days, he came back.
It is said that this time, the newcomer to Prome reluctantly gave some conditions with a certain degree of sincerity.
He was slapped in the face repeatedly, but he still had to lick his face and ask for help. This means that the recent situation of the Holy Empire has deteriorated to a certain extent.
That is indeed the case. According to the latest information from the Black Hand Academy, military conflicts have begun to occur between the western and northern borders of the Holy Empire and two other countries, that is, the Evert Federation and the Northern Alliance.
Efter, who is the sworn enemy of the Holy Empire, will not let go of this good opportunity to take advantage of the fire. At the same time, the Holy Empire invaded the Northern Alliance once in the name of holy war a few years ago, and began to retaliate.
This puts the pressure on the Holy Empire very huge. If possible, they are completely unwilling to continue spending time with those undead in the east.
In other words, they are the countries most eager to end this war.
However, according to Dane, the Holy Empire can still let them go for a while.
…
The Holy Empire was left in a hurry.
After they realized the insatiable greed of the Schindlers at the beginning, they did consider it, gave up asking for help, and tried to solve the problem by themselves.
Therefore, in the three directions of the Holy Empire, they all took a very active stance in an instant.
In the north, the frontier guards who took the initiative to attack repelled the sentinel troops of the forest elves. Instead of being counterattacked, they left the border and advanced a certain distance towards the northern forests and mountains to deter the opponent.
At the same time, the Legion of Lawbreakers stationed in the west also took the initiative to launch a series of counterattacks against the invading Evert Federation army, suppressing their momentum a lot.
The Holy Empire began to show its muscles through this way of showing its teeth and claws, warning its enemies not to think that I am really so easy to bully now!
However, the more this happened, the more it seemed to expose the inner weakness of the Holy Empire.
However, no matter what, Fengyun finally had a pause now. As a result, the army of the Great Lord Joberdin, who stationed troops in Changlu County at the border between Pudli and the Holy Empire, launched a fierce attack on the undead in front of him.
This is the will of His Majesty the Pope.
The soaring army of the Holy Empire is still strong enough. Especially when the Lord Joberdin, the head of the Knights Templar, Paladin Richard, and the presiding judge of the Holy See, the Judge of St. John, the three legends spared no effort to participate in the frontal battlefield. , The undead army cannot withstand such a fierce attack.
Of course, among the undead army, there is the legendary death dragon Cleostrasz. He is the second-ranked member of the Church of the Damned, and the death knight Sofield will be subordinate to him. This legendary bone dragon may only be slightly weaker than the demilich Kegel in terms of strength.
At least, in the heads-up, none of the three legends of the Holy Empire was his opponent.
But so what? Just like Kegel couldn't defeat the combination of four legends, it is impossible for the slightly weaker Kleus Straz to challenge three legends at the same time.
In this case, of course, Cleostrasz would not go crazy and jump out to kill himself.
He was hiding in the army of the undead, and he would not show his head no matter what, allowing the army of the Holy Church to attack wildly.
However, the number of undead is here after all. Although the three legendary powerhouses of the empire are very heavy weights on the battlefield, they cannot replace the role of the army after all.
Even with the high morale and fighting will of the church army, as well as the excellent individual combat ability, the Holy See's army wiped out a large number of undead, but their own losses are by no means a few.
After a month-long war, the army of Lord Joberdin advanced to the city of Silver City.
From Changlu County to the Silver Capital, the army of the Holy Empire almost used the lives of the soldiers to wade out a **** road. On this road, the undead army crazily attacked the human army, almost never stopping.
During this one-month war, the army of the Holy Empire wiped out 150,000 undead and paid a price of 30,000 casualties.
At this moment, under the city of Silver and White, three legendary powerhouses of the Holy Empire, Joberdin, St. John, and Richard, had a dispute over the next battle~IndoMTL.com~.
The reason for the dispute is very simple. There are at least 200,000 undead in the Silver City.
How to fight this?
Having fought all the way from Changlu County, they had already lost nearly half of their troops before killing 150,000 undead, and that was still in the plains.
The city defense facilities of the Silver City are not bad, and there are so many undead in the city. Can the Holy Empire win?
What's more, even if he wins the battle and regains the Silver City, what price will he have to pay? I'm afraid the entire legion will be wiped out!
But even that doesn't mean they won the war.
