Give Me the Name of God

During the march, Winsela had been worried. He felt that he was too straightforward in front of Bucken.

He really wants to get the position of bishop, but he shouldn't show it so obviously. The rules set by the Pope are equivalent to the iron laws that God's Punishers must abide by. It is impossible for Bucken to disobey the Pope for his sake. This is a promise that will basically not be fulfilled. But Winsela's overly excited performance left Bucken with something to talk about, and it might even become an excuse to threaten him in the future.

Winsela struggled all the way to the vicinity of Yunmang Mountain, still unable to let go. He said to his lieutenant Adlino: After this war is over, no matter what the Archbishop makes to us, we must treat it with caution. Don’t make mistakes like this again.”

Adelino had followed Winsela for many years, and he knew that the general was willing to say these words to him out of trust in him, but he felt that Winsela was making a fuss out of a molehill.

You know the Archbishop's temperament. He disdains doing things that catch people's lies. I believe his promise is true. He has also fought in wars and served as a general in the God's Punishment Army. Howitt Archbishops have also fought in wars. They can become archbishops, and you can also become bishops. As long as we have achieved enough military exploits, the Pope will definitely be willing to make an exception for you.

I hope so. Winsela sighed, he really yearned for the position of bishop. In the God's Punishment Army, the phenomenon of emphasizing civility over martial arts is very serious. Winsela is one of the top five generals under Bucken. According to the rank, he should be equal to the bishop. But the actual situation is that a bishop can yell at Winsela, and a senior deacon can point fingers at him.

The messenger leading the way was a senior deacon. Along the way, he caused a lot of trouble for Winsela.

Tell your soldiers to keep quiet, especially those who know the way, and tell them to stop complaining so much!

The messenger chose a long detour. Under normal circumstances, it would take at most two days to cross Yunmang Mountain, but according to his route, it would take at least three and a half days. Many soldiers were dissatisfied with this. The explanation given by the messenger It's: This road is not easy to set up an ambush and can avoid most of the wild beasts in the mountains.

Winsela didn't speak, but Adelino could see the dissatisfaction on his face.

Adelino persuaded Winsela a few words. This messenger was Bucken's confidant, and there was no need to get into trouble for such a trivial matter.

General, don't think too much, we should focus on the battlefield.

Battlefield? This counts as a battlefield? Which enemy do you think is worthy of my concentration? Who among them is worthy of me taking another look? The one named Monchik? A young boy who deceives the world and steals his reputation? And that Almen, He’s just a country bumpkin from the backwoods.”

According to Larn Pigu's battle report, General Stanley beside Gasak is also in Blackwater City.

What kind of general is he? Winsela sneered, Just a rogue!

Roman Wilkins has also yet to be identified.

No matter what his identity is, he is just a young man who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth. The archbishop actually wants to canonize him as a holy messenger. It's a big joke. I hate this kind of young man who has no real talent but is arrogant and ignorant the most!

The messenger who was walking in front of the team suddenly turned around and said: General, how many times should I say this? Try to stay quiet while marching. We may encounter an enemy ambush at any time!

There are cowards like him! Winsela whispered, People like him should not leave the royal capital. Letting him go to the battlefield is an insult to the God's Punishment Army!

…

Manu was lying on the uphill slope, looking at the clouds in the sky boredly. He led an army of two thousand people and was stationed here for almost a month. Lying on the grass and looking up at the sky was the work he had to complete every day. .

An eagle hovered in the sky, and Manu showed a long-lost smile. He had been waiting for the eagle's response.

Although Manda is not here, his taming skills have always been effective. As long as he does not choose a new taming target, this eagle will always stick to its mission.

The eagle swooped down and threw something towards Manu. This was a signal from the eagle that someone had entered the mountain.

Manu stood up excitedly, and was about to give the order to Tira to get ready, when he suddenly discovered that the thing dropped by the eagle was a little special. The thing could move and was right at Manu's feet.

Manu lowered his head and took a breath of cold air. It was a venomous snake with green skin and red spots. It raised half of its body and was spitting a message at Manu.

Manu knew this kind of snake. If he was bitten by it, he would die in twenty breaths. Fortunately, Manu was good at it. He pulled out his dagger and chopped off the snake's head. He pointed at the eagle and cursed: Damn big bird, tomorrow Let Toca shoot you down and roast you!

…

Winsela led the soldiers and followed the messenger to the river. The river was very wide, but the water was not deep. It was just above the ankles and the flow was very slow. The soldiers waded directly over.

The messenger stopped and frowned: The last time I passed by this river, the water was at least up to my knees. Why has the river become shallower?

Winsela smiled and said: All rivers have dry seasons. This is common sense. I shouldn't need to teach you.

The messenger raised his head and looked at Winsela with furrowed eyebrows: General, why do you have to ridicule me as soon as you open your mouth? I seem to have never offended you!

Winsela shrugged and said, How dare I ridicule you? You are a distinguished deacon.

The soldiers were crossing the river, but the general had a quarrel with the messenger. Lieutenant General Adelino quickly stepped forward to persuade him, but before he could reach the general, he suddenly heard a loud noise from the upper reaches of the river.

Everyone was shocked and focused their attention upstream. When they saw a huge wave more than ten feet high coming, the soldiers didn't have time to shout, and they were all swallowed up in the torrent.

Tira is a second-level disciple of Poseidon, the god of the sea. His second-level skill is to control water.

According to common sense, followers of Poseidon can only control sea water, and the ability to control river water belongs to followers of the river god.

But Tira is a special case. When dealing with the thief Harlemon, he created his own counterattack skills against the followers of the River God. Kunta discovered in ancient books that this is the talent of the mixed-race believers, and Tira has a little bit of the River God in his body. Bloodline.

Through continuous study, Tira integrated this skill into the second-level skill. He can temporarily stop the flow of river water, just like building a dam to store water upstream.

This skill consumes a lot of money, and Tira can only persist for half a day. However, the river water accumulated for half a day is enough to cause a flash flood. Unfortunately, Winsela became the victim of this flash flood. What is even more unfortunate is that he has not yet Know why this flash flood came.

Fortunately, he was a fourth-level warrior, and he rushed to the other side with his strong skills. Lieutenant Adlino, a third-level divine punishment warrior, also rushed to the other side with the messenger.

But the soldiers were not so lucky. When the torrent receded and the numbers were counted, nearly two thousand of the three thousand army had been lost. Winsela sat on the ground in despair, tears sliding down her cheeks.

Bucken gave many instructions to him to cherish his soldiers, and he even expected these soldiers to become the main force in conquering the southwest.

But now more than half of them have died without fighting. Winsela, who was full of anger and resentment, pointed at the messenger and yelled: This is the path you chose! You brought my army to this damn place!

Naturally, the messenger didn't want to take the blame, and quickly retorted: I warned you that the depth of the river was wrong, but you didn't listen at all, and you told me about the dry season.

The two began to argue again, and Adelino stepped forward to persuade them: Now is not the time to talk about this. Should we continue marching or turn back immediately? We have to make a decision as soon as possible.

This decision is really difficult to make. If the march continues, the combat effectiveness of the remaining more than a thousand soldiers will not be optimistic. All food, grass and weapons will be lost, and there will be many wounded soldiers.

But if we turn back, who will bear such heavy losses?

After much thought, Winsela decided to camp by the river temporarily and rest for a day before making a decision.

From Winsela's point of view, this is a very safe choice, but for Manu, this is the situation he wants to see the most.

Tell Tiela to continue to store water, and notify Tokar that it's time for us to take action.
