Chapter 106 The Helplessness of the Holy Empire

In Thor Fortress, veteran Brown handed over the command to the commander of Baoken, who highly praised the brilliant victory in the offensive and defense of Thor Fortress.

"According to post-war statistics, 17 enemy troops * were killed. The main general Xia Changkong was killed by our army, and more than 500,000 troops were completely annihilated on the west bank of the Midok River. Our army won a decisive victory in the attack and defense of Thor Fortress." Bao Ken, the commander of the army, said with a happy face that next to him was General Brown, the first veteran of the attack and defense of Thor Fortress.

"It's all up to you, the general, and you don't dare to be greedy for the general's great achievements." General Brown said modestly that at his age, he had been in the officialdom for half of his life, of course, exquisite.

Huh? How can I say that? When I came here, I heard your report. I went out of the city to attack, burned the enemy's siege equipment, and won time. The old general was really wise. I admired it very much. Bao Ken had the intention to pull over the old general who held heavy soldiers in the north and praised him sincerely.

"General is flattered. I just want to be responsible for the defenders in the city and want to keep this side safe." Although he was polite, Brown still said modestly that he knew that he would not be able to escape from the credit, so he was simply modest once.

"Hahaha, the old general is indeed a simple and diligent person. Today, I held a banquet in the camp to entertain the old general and celebrate the great achievement of the old general." Bao Ken felt that the old general was indeed a talent, and it was definitely not a disadvantage for Duoduo to get around, so he decided to hold a banquet.

"Then it's better to obey than to obey." Brown also wanted to hold Baoken's thigh at this time, so he did not refuse and immediately agreed.

"Hahahaha, the old general is really happy. So good, very good." Bao Ken laughed loudly, full of bold feelings. Just as he was about to continue talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Report." The guard shouted.

"Come in." Bao Ken's conversation was interrupted and very unhappy, but he still ordered.

"The order from the Holy Capital of the Empire." As soon as the guard came in, he handed over a sealed letter, which was sealed with wax.

"Take it to see." Bao Ken stretched out his hand, took the letter in his hand, quickly opened the envelope, opened the letter paper and looked carefully. The more he looked at it, the more cloudy his face became. It seemed that the content of the letter was not good news.

"Why is the general suddenly so unhappy?" Brown asked softly.

"The Holy City letter, you can also have a look." Handing the letter paper to the veteran Brown, Bao Ken fell down on the chair and rubbed his nose. It seemed that the letter was very difficult for him.

"Is this?" Looking at the contents of the letter, Brown looked up at Bao Ken sitting in the chair.

"Well, when Archbishop Leon Barton is not here, these idiots in the Holy City know how to command blindly, and the Pope's court actually came up with such a bullshit order." Bao Ken said angrily.

"But the general, the letter said that Adams rebels and Luopoh rebels have joined forces to attack the Lovik area, and we are the only ones in the nearest main army."

"Our army has just won from the Lovik region and is in the process of annihilation. Let us run thousands of miles to help Thor Fortress! Now let my army rush back thousands of miles to continue to deal with the rebels of Luopu and Adams. The army is exhausted. To be honest, if we go around again, our army is in danger of collapse on the whole line. Bao Ken said helplessly, "If it goes on like this, I will bury this army. How can I bear it?"

"General, if you don't respect the order, you and I will not be saved." General Brown also said helplessly.

"Then tell me, what should I do?" Bao Ken asked the wise old man in front of him, with a pious face.

"If I were in the position of general, I would send some temporarily recruited troops back to stop the coalition of Lopo and Adams in the Lovik area." General Brown thought for a long time and said firmly.

"However, our army came all the way, and the temporary recruitment of the army was seriously insufficient in training and limited combat effectiveness." General Bao Ken said that he was reluctant to let his troops die.

"Hahaha, don't forget that the other side is a coalition army. Adams suffered a new defeat, morale is sluggish and poorly, and the Luopu army is strong, but it is also a tired division, not much better than us." Old General Brown said with a smile.

"But it is difficult for our army to win, and it seems that the situation is not optimistic." Bao Ken is still worried.

"Of course, the so-called coalition forces have their own ghosts. If our army wins, the credit will naturally be on you. If our army is defeated, then Adams and Lopoel will immediately bite the dog and fight by themselves. And our army has had enough rest at this time, and it is not too late to return to the division to fight a decisive battle and make atonement for the general. Brown continued with a smile.

"Well, wonderful, it's really a wonderful plan. The old general is indeed a wise general, and Bao is willing to thank the old general." Bao Ken said gratefully.

"You don't have to be polite. If you have received the general's life-saving kindness, you will definitely repay him." The two looked at each other and smiled, looking very tacit.

Saint Caen of the Holy Empire, in the Pope's bedroom of the Corse Palace, the Pope is lying on his sickbed. Prince Chris and Arnold's grandson are in front of him. Chris wants the Pope to read the orders issued in the past few days and the countermeasures to various things.

After listening to part of it, the Pope interrupted the report: "Chris, you have also helped me take care of the Holy Empire for many years. I still rest assured that you don't report these little things."

"My son dares not be a dictatorship, so many things still need to be agreed by his father." Chris said. Arnold handed over a cup of ginseng tea. Chris took it and took a sip, and then said, "I think it's risky for us to let Baoken return to the Lovik area. Even if we defeat the rebels of Lopoel and Adams there, our main force will be in danger because of too fatigue, and the empire can no longer afford to lose its master. The force army is coming, and the news from the Eastern Front is shocking. Although we have won part of the victory, the loss is also huge.

"Children, the central plain is our foundation. We have been operating painstakingly here for many years. As long as we contact the forest of elves, our central plain is a copper wall and iron wall. In the southeast, there is a loyal archbishop Leon Barton. There is no mistake. What I am worried about happens to be the north and the south, the southern city-state muce master. The religion is fighting against various separatist forces, and it will not be able to make any waves for a while. It's hard to say in the north, so we not only consume Lop and Adams, but also part of the troops in Baoken's hands. Do you understand?" The old pope lying on the sickbed said slowly, and it seemed that his body was really not very good.

"I understand. Father, please take a rest first. We will come to see you tomorrow. Chris and Arnold got up and withdrew from the Pope's bedroom.
