Continental Warriors Yoo Ma

At this time, the heavy rain had stopped.On the battlefield full of stagnant water, the soldiers dragged their tired bodies and struggled among the piles of corpses.But their faces were full of excitement, cheering for every piece of gold and silver treasure found from the dead enemy soldiers.

The sun shines through the dark clouds, illuminating the earth in a golden yellow.

Ma Youfu was in a good mood admiring the cruel but beautiful scenery in front of him.

At this time, Knight Marshal Richmond and others gathered.When the old marshal saw Ma Youfu, he first laughed, expressing his joy of victory, and then said with lingering fear: "Seven Saints! Your Excellency, Duke Barr, I led the cavalry to ambush in the mountains. When I woke up this morning, I found that the sky was falling. It's raining, you didn't know how bad my mood was at the time!"

The Knight Marshal of Richmond had a dark history of being captured by the British army in the Battle of Agincourt. Once he associated heavy cavalry with rainy days, there were signs of PTSD.

Fortunately, the courageous La Haile encouraged (forced) him, and the soil in the Atlas Mountains was completely different from the Normandy area, and it would not form the kind of muddy cavalry trap after the rain. That's why Richmond overcame the little difficulty in his heart, and finally appeared on the battlefield in time with the cavalry.

"My lord duke, what's our next target?" Lahail, whose plate armor was almost dyed red, and even with bits of meat of unknown origin hanging from his beard, asked in a rough voice.

Today he had a great time killing at least 50 elite Turkmen heavy cavalry by himself, and even got close to Uzun Hassan's main formation less than [-] meters away.But in the end, he was escaped by the other party.

The greatest credit for this battle has slipped away from his hands, so it's no wonder that Lahaier has a feeling of unfinished business at this time.

"Next..." Ma Youfu looked to the northeast, his eyes seemed to pass through the mountains and arrive at the bustling city by the sea, "Next, of course we are going to Tunisia."

Seeing Lahaier's joyful look, he added: "However, if you want to continue to fight, I'm afraid there will be no chance. The Muhran jihadists from all walks of life withdraw and lose, and the Tunisian Sultan is also seriously ill. We should not encounter any resistance. The day of complete conquest of the Maghreb is just ahead! Ladies and gentlemen, we will hold a grand celebration banquet in the palace of Tunis City!"

Everyone cheered, only Philip III was adding drama to himself.He didn't know when he took off his full-body Milanese plate armor, and put on a set of ancient Roman-style muscular breastplate that he had prepared a long time ago. He also wore a Roman helmet with a purple feather crown, proudly standing on the battlefield Walking up and down, when someone passed by, they would say hello in Latin.

It is estimated that he has long been prepared to come to this cosplay show after the big victory.

Ma Youfu's comment on this is: I only want to rebuild Rome, but you dream of becoming a real Roman, or your spirit is pure.

…………

After the victory of the second battle of Zama, the Crusaders attacked the city and seized territory all the way, advancing towards Tunisia, reaping the fruits of victory frantically.And Uzun Hassan, after running wildly for more than 150 kilometers, led his remaining personal guards to the port of Sousse on the eastern coast of Tunisia.

Not long after entering the city, Ismail led the Mulholran fleet to arrive.

When the Ottomans and Mamluks retreated, they also took their own fleet with them.Coupled with the various losses in the previous battles, only a fleet of 68 ships composed of Barbary pirates and Mulholland volunteers remained in Ismail's hands.

After meeting her grandfather in the port of Sousse, Ismaili was still unwilling to reconcile after learning that the other party had experienced a disastrous defeat. He wanted to gather the remnants of the defeated soldiers who had returned to Tunisia from various places and continue to stand firm.

Chapter 510: The Chaos of the Holy City ([-]rd)

"Grandpa, His Royal Highness the Great Aries Sultan!" Ismail looked at Uzun Hassan, who was particularly sensitive and stubborn because of the defeat, and persuaded him earnestly, "Now that the Ottomans and Mamluks have withdrawn, the three Sultans The national capital has been defeated, the situation in the Maghreb is irreversible, and we should also retreat."

"I, Uzun Hassan, have fought all my life, and I have never tasted the bitter wine of failure. Ismail, you know, I..." The Aries Sultan's lips moved silently, and in the end he still did not express the "unreconciled" three Words are spoken.

After days and nights of fleeing, he looked tired, his lips were chapped, his face was covered with dust, and his body was covered with mud and blood stains from the last battle.But despite this, Uzun Hassan's eyes were still shining brightly, revealing the unyielding fire in his heart.

"Your Highness, I know you are not reconciled to losing to Ma Youfu, but now, we have more important things to do." Ismail knew that Uzun Hassan was in a mood at this time, so he was not so easy to persuade, but for the sake of For the sake of the overall situation, he still can only continue to try.

"Right now, things in Tabriz are more important than Tunisia."

Hearing Ismail's mention of domestic affairs, Uzun Hassan finally cheered up.

The Aries Sultanate has risen too fast, and many domestic problems have been covered up by the successive victories.And to put it bluntly, this country is actually a tribal alliance in essence, and the foundation of his rule as a Sudan is his own military prestige.If it fails now, there will definitely be troubles in the country.

Therefore, instead of returning to Tabriz in despair, it is better to continue fighting in Tunisia and seek the last chance of victory.

"Your Highness, the Ottomans and Mamluks have shifted their focus from jihad to domestic. If we don't follow suit, there will be problems not only internally, but also externally."

Ismail's words made Uzun Hassan's obsession loosen a little.

The Mamluks are fine.Whether it is its monarch or generals, they are nothing but a group of mediocre people.Instead, it was the Ottomans who made a deep impression on him.

Especially Prince Mohammad.If nothing else, he will eventually kill the other brothers and become the next Ottoman Sultan.At that time, the Aries Sultanate will face enormous pressure.

Seeing that Uzun Hassan's attitude had softened, Ismail persuaded him: "In the First Crusade, our Muhran religion also lost miserably, and even lost the holy city of Jerusalem. But now? ?The entire Syrian region is still in the hands of the believers of the true god Ankabal. The kingdoms, principalities, and counties established by the Seven Saints have long since disappeared in the dust of history. I believe that one day, the Maghreb will also Bathed in the light of the crescent moon again."

Finally, Ismail said with a serious expression: "Grandpa, no matter what you want to do, I plan to leave. Because a major event happened in Yerevan. As the successor of the Prophet, I am a member of the Safavid Church. Leader, if you want to protect the world's faith guardians on behalf of the true god, you must prioritize solving that problem."

In fact, Uzun Hassan had been persuaded a long time ago, but his pride as a monarch and a famous general prevented him from easily admitting his failure.At this time, seeing Ismail mentioning another matter, he followed suit and blurred the matter.

When he withdraws his troops later, he will be able to pass his own test.

"What happened in Yerevan?" Uzun Hassan asked.

Yerevan is an ancient city located in the Transcaucasus region.In 301 A.D., the King of Armenia converted to the Seven Saints here, becoming the first Seven Saints country in history.As one of the holy cities of the Seven Sacred Churches, there are also a large number of cultural relics and historic sites here, the most famous of which is the Echmihejin Church, which is known as "the head of the Seven Sacred Sevens and the place where the god Oretto descended".

Later, after the rise of the Mulholland religion, it adopted the attitude of "you can keep your faith, but pay more" for the pagans under its rule, so this church was also preserved.

But this time Uzun Hassan led the jihad army to the Maghreb, and Ismail also accompanied him. The evildoers in Aries took the opportunity to make a big deal.

After defeating Strozzi and dedicating the victory of the Pelaj sea battle to the true god Ankabal, Ismail received the enlightenment and knew that there was a problem in the country.

He hurriedly sent a message to return to the country, and asked the left-behind backbone of the Safavid Church to go to Yerevan to investigate.

The results obtained are horrifying.

In that historic city, since this year, many strange and evil events have taken place.These incidents were so depraved, eccentric, obscene, and crazy that Ismaili didn't want to talk about them in front of her grandfather.

At first, some villagers reported that in the ruins of castles and churches left by the ancient Armenian kingdom, there were many mysterious people who were engaged in vigorous "group sports" at night, and their panting and moaning could spread for a mile. outside.

It's just that the rulers of the Aries Sultanate still retain the nature of many nomadic peoples, and their domestic governance is far from that of those farming peoples with a long history. Even the village elders are not very effective.Moreover, those mysterious groups seem to have a deep connection with the local lords, so even if they acted blatantly, after the first few reports came to nothing, and after the reporter was retaliated against, everyone was open-minded about what happened in the relevant ruins of the Seven Sacred Sect. One eye is closed and the other is closed.

At first, the occult group was just doing some messy group sports.Later, mere sensual pleasure no longer provides enough satisfaction.This group has added a lot of physical abuse to group sports, turning physical pain into extreme pleasure.

Later, the group began taking some kind of hallucinogenic drug on a large scale in pursuit of more intense stimulation.In order to deceive others and persuade more people to take this drug, they actually called it "pink hashish".

If the Assassin Order knew about this, they would definitely kill them immediately.The coffin board of the old man in the mountain may not be able to hold it down.

What the mysterious group did in the sacred Echmihejin Church became more and more exaggerated and outrageous.In the end, people were killed.

However, its leader did not restrain himself, but began to intensify.

Every night of revelry thereafter was joined by oddly shaped spellcasters.They began to use magic to modify the bodies of the participants to satisfy all kinds of perverted fun.

Even the physical body of a human being can be discarded, let alone the bondage of thought.

As a result, many scandals and tragedies began to occur in the city of Yerevan, regardless of the bottom line of human relations and morality.

This chaos lasted for a while, and when things finally got so big that victims fled Yerevan in groups to seek help from the Armenian Governor of the Aries Sultanate, everything was made public.

The Governor of Armenia is a devout Mulhollan.After learning the truth, he mobilized [-] soldiers and horses in a rage, entered the city of Yerevan, and wiped out all the mysterious groups.

Some accidental injuries were unavoidable in this process, and in the end, the city of Yerevan still did not escape the ending of bloody rivers.

But after the cleaning was over, the governor was surprised to find that the famous Echmihejin Church was actually shrouded in a layer of pink enchantment.

Although people outside could see the church looming in the pink mist, no one could walk in.

Because as soon as you inhale the pink mist that surrounds the Echmihejin Church, no matter how strong you are and how determined your willpower is, you will quickly degenerate and become a lunatic who only knows how to pursue various primitive desires.

The governor of Armenia, who considered himself an elite fighter and had a firm belief, was the first victim.

The aristocrat who succeeded the Governor was rather timid, so he immediately sent people to build a wooden wall around the Echimi Hejin Church, surrounded it firmly, and waited for Ismail to return before dealing with it.

After listening to Ismail's narration, Uzun Hassan looked solemn.

As a high-ranking and well-informed sultan, he naturally heard that the mysterious group involved in Yerevan was most likely a cultist who believed in a corrupt evil god.

Anything involving the four evil gods must be treated with caution.

If there is anything in this world that can make the Seven Saints and the Mulholland believers put aside their grievances and unite, it must only be when fighting against the four evil gods.

These are the regulations written into the basic teachings of the two major religions.

"Since the domestic situation is serious, we can no longer waste time in the Maghreb." Uzun Hassan changed his previous entanglement and said vigorously, "Get ready, we will set off tomorrow morning!"

After making a decision, Uzun Hassan thought for a while and asked again: "Ismail, you have the prophetic power to observe the future, so do you know how much impact what happened in Yerevan really has? Will it affect the entire country? The influence of those cultists is like a plague, if you don't pay attention, it will spread rapidly."

Ismail was stunned for a while, and after thinking for a long time, he said in the most serious tone: "Your Highness, I can feel that the believers of the evil god of corruption are planning a very, very big conspiracy. What happened in Yerevan is just It’s just a piece of the puzzle in this big conspiracy. If the evil god’s conspiracy succeeds, then it’s not just our Aries Sultanate. It’s not even Persia, Mashriq, Anatolia, Syria..."

After reporting a series of place names, Ismail said slowly: "There is even Europe, India, and the east farther than India. All creatures living on this land will face a drastic change, It is possible to live under the shadow of the evil god forever, and not even get a trace of peace in sleep..."

Uzun Hassan gasped and said nothing, but nodded silently with an extremely serious expression.

Chapter 510 IX Another Uncle and Nephew

On the same night that Uzun Hassan and Ismail set off to return to the Aries Sultanate, the dying Tunisian Sultan Aziz II died in the palace.

After being defeated in the second Battle of Zama, the already precarious Tunisian Sultanate fell into complete chaos.None of the Tunisian nobles thought about how to defend the country and be loyal to the royal family.They were either busy fighting for the power left behind by Aziz II after his death, or they waited obediently at home, preparing for the arrival of the Crusaders "King Master".Or simply pack it up and moisten it to other Mulholland countries along the eastern Mediterranean coast.

On the second night after the Sultan's death, a fire broke out in Tunisia.

The old vizier Barakat, who handled political affairs in the palace, was attacked by a group of people on his way home.Barakat died at the scene.Then the old vizier's guards and servants fought desperately with the attackers in grief and indignation. When they gradually became outnumbered, Abu Arum Othman, the grandson of the sultan, led his guards and rushed to the attackers. retreat.

Later, Arum (calling him Abu or Othman is confusing, so let’s call him Arum.) A secret letter was found from the attacker’s body, indicating that the instigator of the attack was Aqi Ziyad, the fourth son of Ziz II.

Although the old vizier had a bit of a temper, he had always acted impartially. As for who could become the next Tunisian Sultan, he had always advocated following Aziz II's will.

However, although Aziz II usually favored his grandson Arum the most and had the idea of ​​making him his heir, he became seriously ill and lost his ability to act before he could realize his idea.At this time, as the only close minister of Aziz II, the old vizier's attitude was crucial.

Whoever he expresses his support for will be the next Sultan of Tunisia.

As a result, this key figure had died in the assassination.

Arum accused his fourth uncle Ziad of murdering the old vizier, because the old vizier heard Aziz II's last words before his death, and his grandfather wanted to pass on the title of sultan to himself.

Of course, Ziad would not admit that biting his good nephew back was directing and acting on his own, trying to slander himself.

The guards and supporters of both sides fought like this on the streets of Tunisia, turning the bustling city into a mess.

In the end, I don't know that it was the ghost strategist who proposed to snatch Aziz II's body.

Because after the death of Mulhollan believers, the body must be cleaned by the close relatives. This kind of ceremony is called "cleaning ceremony".Arum and Ziad, whoever can personally clean up the remains of the sultan, will undoubtedly have a more legitimate claim to the succession of the sultan.

The two sides fought again in the magnificent palace, and made a mess of the original paradise where Aziz II and his concubines had fun. In the mourning hall of Shi's body, swords and swords confronted each other.

At this time, someone finally couldn't stand the reckless uncle and nephew, and invited another close minister of the sultan, the palace consultant and alchemist Maher, out.

Maher and Aziz II are very close on weekdays, but people get the impression that he is a lucky courtier who offers all kinds of "precious medicines" to invite favors. Hello, so in this fight for the right to inherit, neither of the two sides thought of this key person.

But at this time, the alchemist seemed to have become a sweet momo that everyone was vying to win over.

The fighting that lasted most of the night finally stopped.At dawn, Fen Maher walked into the palace under the invitation of the envoys sent by Arum and Ziad in the light of dawn.

Seeing that the royal palace, which originally symbolized the authority of the Sultan of Tunisia, was now in disarray after a night of scuffle, he sighed suddenly, with endless regret in his long voice, and there was still a tear in the corner of his eye.

The other ministers accompanying him couldn't help being infected, and they thought to themselves: Although this alchemist usually looks like a courtier, but at this critical moment, his performance is better than that of those who glared at each other in front of the corpse of Aziz II. For uncles and nephews, it is much stronger.

Unfortunately, they didn't know how could Maher, a follower of a corrupt evil god, feel sad for the chaos in Tunisia?

Rather, the current chaotic situation is just to his liking.

He didn't even make a move, and these stupid human beings were making trouble on their own. For that little bit of power, the filial piety of being a son of man and the loyalty of being a minister can all be discarded.What does this mean?This shows that the power to corrupt people's hearts originally exists in everyone's heart. As long as the time is right, it will grow wildly like weeds after the rain.

As a member of the Epilepsy Entertainment Club and a loyal follower of the evil god of corruption, Maher's original mission in Tunisia was to do everything possible to create chaos and do his best for a grand plan that would allow everyone in the world to feel the blessings of the evil god. part of the matter.
