Chapter 543 The Third Battle of Lovik

"H Long live the Sword Empire! Long live His Majesty the Holy Rudolph God Arcado!" Everyone stood up and shouted, and enthusiastic shouts echoed throughout the conference room.

"Your Majesty, first, why did the Sofia Empire continue to do this when it knew that the economic collapse would subjugate?" At the end of the meeting, Yuqian, who did not leave, asked Arcado puzzledly.

Akado's eyes flashed unnaturally. He thought of Sofia's purpose, but he really couldn't bear to say it, but since Yu Qian had asked, there was no need to hide it.

"If a country wants to rule Yavia, it must be unreasonable to do so. Even if it succeeds, what's the use of the whole Avia ruins?" Accado analyzed.

He sighed and said, "If destroying the economy is one of Sofia's purposes, this is easy to explain. She did not intend to leave anything from the beginning. If human beings perish and society disappears, it doesn't matter whether the economy collapses or not. Can you imagine that if there are only puppets left in an empire, what's the use of the economy?

"Do you mean? The purpose of the Sophia Empire is..." Yu Qian took a deep breath and looked at Arcado's eyes full of panic and fear.

"That's right! It seems that this Sophia wants to destroy human beings! Instead of becoming a ruler." Arcado said helplessly: "Sofia stole the technology of the Holy Sword in order to make the world chaotic; to help us delay the eternal night in order to make the world more chaotic; and the failure of using tricks to frame us in the province of Arante is also to make the world more chaotic. Attacking the fortress empire and releasing the orc army into the wall of sighs is also to fight against human beings.

Finally, he looked at Yu Qian and said, "All this seems to be out of order, but there is only one purpose, that is, to stir up the water and then destroy human beings."

Sure enough, not beyond Arcado's expectation, the Sofia Empire couldn't wait to launch a war of aggression against the Holy Empire, and the air force of the Sofia Empire stepped onto the stage of history in this battle.

Under the leadership of No. 1, the million troops of the Sophia Empire crossed the border of the Holy Empire and launched an attack on the territory of the Holy Empire. Subsequently, the Holy Empire launched a counterattack, and the two sides launched an unprecedented battle in the province of Lovik.

In the past two years, the Holy Empire has been nourishing its spirit. Although Archbishop Sloc has taken control of the government, he is still conscientious. Compared with the unstable eternal night of the political situation, the strength of the Holy Empire must not be underestimated now.

As a force in the army to compete with Leon Barton, John, the son of Archbishop Sloc, has become the commander of the general army and has received the false title of bishop, which is definitely the second place in the military.

In terms of the degree of nobility, the Srock family has now faintly surpassed Leon Barton and become the second most prominent family in the name of the Holy Empire.

Here we need to talk about the digression. The fourth largest family of the Holy Empire is actually more famous. The fourth largest family in the name of the Holy Empire is the St. Rudolph family. Well, if you hadn't forgotten our title of His Majesty St. Rudolph in the Holy Empire and his son Raines' false title of Prince of Light in the Holy Empire, you wouldn't have made a fuss about it.

Compared with the "long-planned" of the Sword Empire's invasion of the Eternal Night, the Sofia Empire's invasion of the Holy Empire seems a little hasty. In order to end the invasion of the Holy Empire before the Sword Empire solves the Eternal Night, the Sofia Empire mobilized all the troops that can be mobilized. He crushed the Holy Empire aggressively.

However, unlike Yongye, the Holy Empire has neither the chaos of regime change nor the consumption of internal strife. On the contrary, it has achieved two years of peaceful development, and its national strength has been greatly improved, and its industrial level is one level stronger than that of the Eternal Night Empire.

However, this time, the Sofia Empire was determined to send millions of puppet troops, equipped with all the four-legged self-propelled magic cannons and puppet giants, who launched a fierce attack on the more than 1,000-kilometer border.

The third Lovik Battle in the north officially began. John, the eldest grandson of the Slock family of the Holy Empire, commanded 950,000 troops of the Holy Empire to fight against 2 million puppets of the Sophia Empire. The war entered a white-hot stage from the beginning.

At first, relying on the theory of deep defense and the defense positions carefully arranged in two years, the Holy Empire gained a series of advantages and annihilated 300,000 puppet troops at the cost of losing 50,000 people.

However, with the expansion and development of the war, the main force of the puppet empire continued to increase, and the defense of the Holy Empire became a little tight. On April 2, 5, the puppet empire forces invaded the northern part of the Lovik province of the Holy Empire.

The puppet forces that tore apart the defense line of the Holy Empire attacked crazily. John hesitated and began to command and dispatch the army. Many pre-defense plans were disrupted, and the entire defense system of the Holy Empire began to face collapse.

In the next few days, the two sides fought several large-scale battles, and the losses of the two sides also climbed all the way. The Sofia Empire lost about 700,000 puppet soldiers in the north of Lovik, and the Holy Empire also paid a heavy price of 370,000 people.

Because of the huge losses, the forces of the Holy Empire were forced to abandon the northern part of Lovik Province and the southern part of Merlan Province. On April 13, the puppet troops of the Sofia Empire entered North Ladora Province and went straight to the capital of North Ladora Province.

John personally rushed to North Ladora Province to command the battle of North Ladora. 200,000 soldiers of the Holy Empire were finally defeated by 500,000 puppet elites and were defeated in North Ladora. On the afternoon of April 15, the capital of North Ladora Province fell, and the defense of the Holy Empire failed.

Archbishop Leon Barton, who was originally stationed in the south of the Holy Empire to prevent the Holy Sword Empire, was recalled to the holy city of Caen to discuss how to deal with the invasion of the Sofia Empire.

Leon Barton led 200,000 elites north the next day to support the increasingly passive northern border, while John was transferred to the south line to replace Leon Barton and command the southern defense system to deal with the possible invasion of the Sword Empire.

The Sofia Empire, which won the victory in the Lovik region, carried out massacres and plunder in order to retaliate against the local civilians supporting the Holy Empire and to make up for the losses caused by the war, bringing disaster to the local people.

The victory also made Sofia misjudge the situation. She ordered the plan to exterminate humanity in advance and began to carry out inhumane destructive rule in some areas, completely revealing her horrible purpose of destroying human beings.
