(); When the agreed date was reached, the armies of various vassal states also arrived one after another.

After counting, Romulus gathered 70,000 troops, plus logistics personnel, which was enough to be called an army of 100,000.

According to the calculation of Blue Star in an era when the world was divided into three parts, this was "one power."

The current garrison at Fort Transy is only about 800, which is just "one liao".

However, Abel does not only have such a small amount of troops. After taking stock of the lords of the Zhuye Empire who have not been invaded by the rebels, there is hope for gathering "one-tenth" of the troops.

But now the group of lords are still waiting and watching, and they don't even want to participate in the counter-rebellion. The counter-rebellion is all about the counter-rebellion army that Grace has cobbled together, and now there are less than 2,000 people.

Because many people are spreading rumors that Abel is dead and that the "Queen" of Fort Transy is a puppet in disguise.

And the second half of this rumor is actually true.

But even if there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, for Abel, it is just a matter of left hand fighting right hand.

After all, she is the coach of both sides, and it is not her who has the final say on how to move the chess pieces.

It's not a problem to ambush it and defeat 100,000 people with 800 people!

After the troops were assembled, the Pope and the Saint came to the garrison in person, and under the escort of real Crusaders, encouraged the expedition soldiers.

Because she was confident, the saintly lady who inspected the troops while riding on a snow-white horse showed considerable confidence.

However, when they reviewed a gleaming army of three thousand men, both the Pope and the Saint were a little embarrassed.

A certain lord who led that army only nodded to the Pope and the Saint on his horse, and did not dismount and salute like the other lords.

But after all, the other party was someone who would send airships to bombard his face if he was in a hurry, so the Pope just showed an awkward yet graceful smile, and then went to the next station.

The saint glared at Jiang Xiaotan, and then chased after the pope.

Acting always requires acting.

You can't happily go up and hug Jiang, laugh and talk, while rubbing and saying: "Onii-chan touches your head", right?

And it was Sipat's head that was touched like this.

But Jiang Xiaotan stopped her.

"Lord Saint!"

The saint turned back, her expression full of physical disgust.

The acting is top-notch, without being exaggerated.

Jiang Xiaotan said: "I have a cousin who is very devout to the Holy Religion. She wants to become a priestess. I wonder if you can meet her and give her some guidance on some doctrinal issues?"

At this time, the Pope also heard it, pressed the horse's head, and stopped to listen.

"If you want to become a priestess, just register with the local church and start as a novice nun. What's the point of coming to me?!" Saint Sipart said with an upright face.

"The child is just a little confused about doctrinal issues. The local church in Seple...can't solve her problem." Jiang said with a smile.

Isn't that right? The Church of Cypler is almost suppressed by his lord and is desperate for survival. How can he still give guidance to others?

"Why should I..." Saint Sipart continued to refuse, when the Pope suddenly coughed.

So the Holy Lady shut her mouth knowingly, then approached the Pope and asked in a low voice: "Holy Father, do you have any instructions?"

The Pope also whispered: "Since that girl is related to Count Cypler, you might as well take her with you. With such a relationship, Count Cypler's attitude towards the Holy Religion may become more pious."

His intention was very clear, he wanted Sipat to put his "cousin" beside him as a hostage.

The saint said softly: "I'm afraid that Count Cypler wants to place a spy beside me."

The Pope whispered again: "If you find any signs of that, just stamp her with a holy mark and drive her out."

After that, he loudly said to Jiang Xiaotan: "Since it was recommended by Count Cypler, let's arrange for the young lady to meet the saint. If she is pious enough, it would be good to become a trainee nun next to the saint."

"Thank you Holy Father for your support." Jiang said with a smile.

"Since the Holy Father has said it, let the girl come to my tent after the review, but remember, you don't want to play any tricks!" Sipat said.

"Thank you, Holy Lady."

The saint was not happy after hearing this, and glared at Jiang Xiaotan fiercely.

The acting was so realistic that Jiang Xiaotan couldn't help but want to give his baby sister a gold medal.

After being led away from the headquarters of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces, the Pope walked slowly and said to the Saint: "Holy Saint, you don't have to be so aggressive. Since Count Cypler now intends to surrender, you should be more generous."

"Holy Father, do you know how those who rebelled against God treated me when I was in captivity?"

The Pope shook his head: "I know that the Saint is dissatisfied. If Count Cypler and the others still despise the Holy Church, they will one day suffer. But now that they have surrendered on the surface, we shouldn't press too hard.

, lest they jump over the wall in a hurry."

"Yes. I will follow the teachings of the Holy Father."

The pope nodded to the saint, but then sighed: "However, Count Cypler is really skillful. I didn't expect that Rotum would also stand with them."

"Perhaps they were coerced by force? The Duke of Rotum was the only one among the three who dismounted and saluted."

"I hope so. Saint, how much do you think these three thousand coalition troops are worth to ordinary soldiers?"

Sipat pondered for a moment: "As for their heavy infantry and light cavalry, they are only better equipped and can fight one against two. The scary thing is the cannons in their army. Those things are really scary.

At the beginning, the warriors of the Holy Religion had no power to fight back in front of the cannon."

The Pope nodded and said in a low voice as much as possible: "Holy Maid, I will give you an extra task for this expedition. You must do everything possible to make those artillery lose in the war. If possible, give Luo Mu

Luce brought back one or two doors."

Sipat looked solemn, then nodded.

But what she was thinking was: It would be strange if it could make you happy!

The two of them had their own thoughts and finished reviewing the remaining troops.

Then, the so-called 100,000 troops were neatly arranged on the plains, and the Pope made the final mobilization for them before the war, and held a ceremony to bless these "warriors of God."

The pre-war mobilization was very boring and consisted of nothing more than the Pope reading aloud the words he had written in his proclamation.

And the blessing was quite good. Hundreds of cross priests and the pope used a ritual to cast a large-scale strengthening magic, but when it was spread evenly on the "one power" person, the effect was not as effective as Lenka's song of blessing.

However, this did boost the morale of some of the more pious soldiers from the vassal states, convinced that they had become warriors chosen by God.
