Realm of Power

"Master Riposti ordered that this woman cannot be kept!" The officer came back from behind and whispered to the leader of the Imperial Flag Regiment with a strange look on his face, "Kill him on the spot?" The Imperial Flag Regiment leader grinned. "After all, he is the pope of a country. Lord Reposti feels that it is always inappropriate to kill directly in the name of the empire. Since there are people in the Order Country who are willing to do it for them, why not do it! Moreover, the people who took action were from the Order Country's own side. Even if it were revealed, who can say that our empire is not ""Understood! "The imperial flag leader stared at the disheveled female pope who was pushed to the ground in front of him, and nodded sternly at the corner of his mouth. This may be the most appropriate way to deal with it. The matter needs to be done, but it cannot be done. Bearing the notoriety of killing the pope of a country, let alone a woman who was in extreme poverty, if it was executed by the empire, it would indeed be a bit dirty to the face of the imperial soldiers.

"Go tell them." The leader of the Imperial Flag Regiment turned to a messenger cavalryman next to him and whispered for a while. The messenger cavalry ran out of the queue and came to the front of the wooden rally. He said in a cold voice, "We can agree. You, if you kill her, we won’t kill you! “Okay, I’ll kill this woman right away!”

Mu Rally showed an unconcealable joy on his face. At this moment, he had no choice. Even if he was charged with killing the pope, it would be better than being trampled to pieces by the imperial cavalry. Moreover, this civil war in the Order State After this battle, the Holy Capital was lost, and now the last remaining military forces have surrendered to the empire. It is not an exaggeration to say that it has been destroyed. What else is there to fear from the Pope of such a religious order country! As long as you can keep yourself alive, you can do anything! "Wood Rally, you scumbag!"

The new pope's pretty face turned pale, and the cold light shone. Before the hysterical and shrill female voice could be completely shouted, it suddenly stopped. The head rolled down, and blood spurted out from the chest cavity of the headless body, as if it had been violently pulled out of the body. , the red color was dazzling, and the new pope's head immediately followed the inertia and rolled into the quagmire at his feet. His eyes were wide open, full of disbelief and unspeakable pain.

There was deathly silence all around, and all the sounds stopped at this moment

Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes were focused on the beautiful head that fell into the muddy water. The Holy City Army could not help but feel a sense of desolation from the heart. This is the Supreme Pope, but now it is as if someone has killed a chicken. The head was cut off, and the headless body was mixed into the mud on the ground. In the water, nobility and turbidity are completely indistinguishable at this moment. Even if they are extremely dissatisfied with the new pope, this is still His Highness the Pope of the Order State, the monarch they once loyal to, and he died like this. His Highness Zong died like this, the impact was a bit big! "His Royal Highness the Pope is really dead!" "His Royal Highness the Pope!...Ah" Several maids ran out of the tent, and when they saw the bloody scene outside, they collapsed on the ground. They were the new Pope's personal maids, and they had been there just now. I didn't dare to come out of the tent. I heard the screams outside and ran out desperately. As a result This is the scene in front of me. "Mu Rally, you bastard, you will die!" A Holy City Army general clenched his fingers fiercely and looked at the wooden Rally holding the cross sword with red eyes. "Don't be embarrassed, get used to it!" But as an enemy of the empire, this woman can’t blame anyone for seeking death! "

Mu Lalisai wiped the blood dripping from the sword blade in his hand on his leg, and deliberately made a shrug. Obviously, it can be cut down neatly with a powerful and heavy sword, so that the victim will hardly feel the pain, but The Wood Rally took another approach The painful way to kill people is to use the edge of the cross sword to pull hard horizontally, cut the flesh, and cut directly into the neck bone, and then pull it hard again, and the knife edge violently cuts off the neck bone, which is why the new pope's head rolled. When it fell, it was almost a cruel sight of a column of blood spurting out.

Even a sword fight between soldiers would not harm the opponent like this, but who is Mu Rally, the notorious captain of the Temple Guards? Killing the opponent has become a physical instinct, not to mention outstanding performance, how can the empire Jun, let yourself go! As long as you don't die. Leaving here is the dragon entering the sea. As an important figure in the Temple Guards, when the Potamia army marched northward with overwhelming force, he had already begun to transfer wealth, leaving himself a way out, so he was even more I’m not willing to die here!

The imperial cavalry began to spread out to both sides like running water, and the horses' hooves stepped forward neatly. An imperial general wearing black general armor, surrounded by several subordinates, rode out from the position where the cavalry dispersed.

"Is this the Pope of the Order?"

Reposti's eyes glanced at the headless Pope's corpse, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly before landing on Mu Rally. They were all professional soldiers. Can you still see the trick in this beheading? To be able to use such cruel methods on a woman, this guy is really not a good guy! In this case, there will be no burden on my heart!

"Although it cannot be confirmed yet, judging from the faces of the people around the Order, it is very likely that this corpse is the Pope of the Order!" the adjutant whispered behind him, "I will kill her, you must keep your promise!" "

Mu Lalisai stood next to the body of the new pope and shouted at Reposti. When he saw Reposti asking the adjutant behind him, he was also very upset. Who knows what the empire's attitude will be in the end. He can be said to be risking everything. . If the Imperial Army went back on its word, he might have fainted in the toilet crying. Fortunately, he made the right bet. Reposti still needed him to take the blame for killing the Pope of the Order State. How could he kill him right here!

Reposti took a deep breath and waved his hands to the imperial cavalry around him. "Okay, hold your head back and wait for the identity to be verified. The body will be carried down first!" Reposti paused, looked at Mu Rally, and said coldly, "This man, give him a horse and let him go. If you see him again in ten minutes, kill him immediately!" "

"Yes, sir!"

The leader of the Imperial Flag nodded in reply and had someone give Muli Lasai an Imperial war horse.

Muli Lasai quickly jumped on his horse, without any delay, and galloped towards the northeast. Didn't you hear that if he is seen again in ten minutes, the imperial cavalry will kill him mercilessly? , Mu Rally could see that there was a killing intent flashing in the eyes of this imperial general. Hot, if he is still here, or seems to want some reward, it will be the result of his head falling to the ground. Mu Rally has no doubt that if the other party is not worried about anything, he is afraid that he will immediately order him to be killed on the spot, and he can escape. God, I am already overjoyed, why do you dare to hesitate?

The northeast direction was not the direction of the Holy Capital. Mu Rally had no intention of returning to the Holy Capital. He rushed to the nearest river dock. He killed the new Pope, whether it was the Temple or Potamia. In the end They will not accommodate him. His only way to survive now is to cross the inland sea and go to the empire area in the north. Even if the power of the Order State covers the south, it is completely different in the empire area in the north. Only there can A slim chance of survival!

"Call all the generals of the Holy City Army to come to me immediately!"

Reposti looked away from the small black dot that was gradually disappearing in the distance, suppressed the murderous intention in his heart, and said to the adjutant behind him. Soon, more than a dozen generals of the Holy Capital Army who were prisoners gathered over. , these Holy Capital Army generals all had their heads drooped, and some of them had their eyes rolling, looking worried.

"I am Reposti, the deputy commander of the Empire's Central European Barrow Region Army, and the person in charge of this sudden attack on the Holy Capital. I have brought you here because I have something to say to you. Since you have surrendered to our empire, there are some things that need to be said. We must make a choice!" Reposti looked at the generals of the Holy City Army, narrowing his eyes slightly, showing even more sharp murderous intent.

Under his gaze, the faces of the generals of the Holy Capital Army changed.

Is the empire going to take action? What will the Imperial Army do with itself?

Although there are rumors from the outside world that the empire treats prisoners well and gives them food and wages, but those are rumors after all, right? If it really comes to your head, it won't be a big deal if the other party kills all of them with a knife! Because there was a cruel precedent like Bavaria in front of them, the empire didn't go against the norm and kill all 300,000 Feishan elites on a winter snowy night! "The empire has already grasped the victory in this battle. We, the defeated generals, are the ones surrendering. Even if Lord Reposti looks down on us, we have nothing to say." A Holy City Army general gritted his teeth and held his head high. , looking towards the sky, with a strong sense of unwillingness in his tone. Although he was defeated, the arrogance of the soldier is still there.

"In this battle, if the Potamia Army hadn't severely damaged our army first, and if the Southern Allied Forces as allies hadn't followed closely, the Holy City would have been in front. If the Allied Forces had cooperated with our army in the fierce attack, the outcome was still uncertain! Another battle The general of the Holy City Army gritted his teeth and said, they are prisoners and surrenderers, but they are not willing to lose! "Haha, how long has it been, why do you care about the outcome!

"Do you really think that you have defeated Putamia? Do you really think that it is so easy to counterattack with the Holy City right in front of you!"

Reposti laughed. It was obvious that the surrendered Holy Capital Army generals were all filled with resentment. All kinds of unwillingness, sorrow, and anger were all written on their faces, and they all looked shaky. The expression, even if you lose, why are you still showing it here, even if it is Even in a real fight, he could kill them all. What left Reposty most speechless was that until now, these people didn't know that they had already stepped into a chess game that was doomed to defeat. The emperor's This killing game is really too deep and too cruel!

In order to completely defeat the arrogance of these Holy Capital Army generals, Reposti took out the previously received report from Potamia's side, threw it in front of your generals from the Holy Capital Bureau, and said coldly

"Since you are not willing to give in, let's take a look at this. Your Highness Putamia, who you think has been defeated, personally leads an army of 30,000 and is lurking about ten miles behind you. He can give you a fatal blow from behind at any time. Attack! In the direction of the Holy Capital, our empire Feishan and Yi Stan Region Governor Varisien's 50,000 elite troops are only thirty miles away from the Holy Capital. At this moment, they are afraid that they will enter the Holy Capital. Together with Reposti's 10,000 elite imperial cavalry troops, the total is close to 90,000 troops. , do you really think you have the possibility of counterattacking the Holy City?"

It has reached the current level, and Reposti doesn't mind the showdown. But once this trump card is revealed, it is like a super bomb, which immediately blows up the generals of the Holy Capital Army.

"What, Her Highness Potamia is ten miles behind us!" After hearing Reposti's words, the generals of the Holy City Army who were still unconvinced let out a gasp of horror, and some people immediately jumped out and said, "Absolutely Impossible, we saw Her Majesty Putamia’s defeat with our own eyes. Although we were able to retreat in the end, there were only a thousand people left, so where did the 30,000-strong army come from?”

"This is!"

A Holy City general stepped forward with a confused expression and picked up the report on the ground. His eyes swept over it, and his expression suddenly changed. Finally, he landed at the end of the report, his hands trembled, and he murmured in a low voice: "Teacher." His Highness Zong! "That is clearly the papal ring emblem of His Highness Potamia. As a soldier of the Order State, how could he not recognize whether this papal ring emblem is real or fake! It's true, and it can be seen that it won't take long for this coat of arms to be imprinted on it. "What, is it really Her Highness Putamia?"

"Aren't you dazzled and talking nonsense!" The other generals of the Holy City Army gathered around. When they saw the coat of arms on it, their lips slightly opened and they were stunned. They all had expressions as if they had seen a ghost! It is the imprint of Her Majesty Potamia's heraldic ring. The vividness of this heraldry can only last about two or three hours at most.

Her Highness Potamia is really right behind us! Could it be that what the other party said was true... Every one of the generals of the Holy Capital Army felt a chill coming from their tail vertebrae, and their scalps were numb and cold! The elites of the empire were strangled in front, and Potamia was lurking in the back. A large net was spread out to attack from the front and back. The Holy Capital Army and the Southern Allied Forces in the middle were not aware of it. How could they fight?

"Even if we don't surrender, we won't have to fight this battle!" A Holy City Army general murmured in a low voice, feeling frustrated and wanting to cry. I originally thought it was a problem with the Pope's command, but now it seems that it has been a problem from the beginning. It is doomed to failure!

"There are only two options before you now. One is to be taken back to the Holy Capital as prisoners. I am afraid that the Potamia Army will not let you go.

"Second, you, as our imperial army's coercive troops, abandon the secrets and turn to the bright side, fight for your crimes, and cooperate with our imperial army to attack the Southern Allied Forces! In this way, even if the Potamia army enters the Holy City, you can also receive protection from our empire. The empire For the sake of her face, Her Highness Putamia will also consider it!”

Reposti's eyes flashed, and he spoke decisively every word. He carefully analyzed the situation of the generals of the Holy City. He said that all the generals of the Holy City Army were tempted. If they had a choice, who would be willing to be punished! His Royal Highness the Pope is dead, and it is a certainty that His Highness Potamia will take over the Holy City.

"We are willing to assist the empire in attacking the Southern Allied Forces!" the generals of the Holy Capital Army gritted their teeth.

"Okay, the whole army will repair for an hour and then move in!"

Reposti grinned, but a big stone fell to the ground in his heart. He was not sure at first, but now that tens of thousands of Holy Capital troops have joined, the power of this war has finally tilted towards his side!

He currently has only a few thousand imperial cavalry under his command. As for his statement that Varisian's 50,000-strong army has arrived in the Holy Capital, that is simply a lie. Varisian's 50,000-strong imperial army are all infantry, and they will not arrive until at least the afternoon. They will arrive at the Holy Capital later. If Varisien's 50,000-strong army really arrives at the Holy Capital, Reposti will not need to move dangerously and attack the protruding Holy Capital army first! Moreover, tens of thousands of Holy Capital Army prisoners were obtained at once, which was undoubtedly a heavy drag for the Imperial Cavalry, which only had a few thousand in number. They had to fight and guard the prisoners, so they couldn't kill all the prisoners! , but what is the difference between thousands of people wanting to detain tens of thousands of people and dancing on the tip of a knife!

In this case, let's simply let these tens of thousands of Holy Capital troops join the empire. As for the possibility of rebellion, it is almost negligible, because it can be said unceremoniously that the moment His Highness the Pope's head fell to the ground, this religion The civil war in the Tuan Kingdom has ended, and one of the two popes has fallen. What else are these Holy Capital troops fighting for? Who else are they fighting for?
