But from their current position to the imperial capital, it would take at least five days at the normal army's marching speed.
It sounds like a lot, but it is simply impossible to organize the civilians outside the imperial capital to move north within five days.
So in order to buy time, Sophia still had to find a way to delay the heresy.
The security strategy of retreating directly to the imperial capital was rejected by Sophia herself.
The problem that fell on the bishop was now very simple.
How to buy more time for a tough battle with the heretics and stop their offensive is the suggestion of most nobles.
Even the people around Sophia feel this way, and if you want the heretics to stop, the reformers must appear.
Even if Sophia doesn't want to, it's no longer up to her to choose.
In addition to transforming people, the bishop has no other capable troops at his disposal.
The northern soldiers sent by Lorne still need to rely on them to defend the imperial capital.
In order to prevent herself from being in the embarrassment of having no one available to her, Sophia decided in advance Let the northern soldiers transport artillery to the imperial capital for defense work.
Fortunately, these people were only a small part of Sophia's seemingly huge army, and no one accused Sophia of retaining strength.
But without advanced percussion guns and artillery, the battle with the heretics will definitely be more brutal.
It was wishful thinking to use the flintlock rifles of the backward heretics to defeat them in shooting.
Sophia was not familiar with military affairs, but she did not have the luxury to use the imperial people who had only practiced shooting in formation for a period of time to defeat the heretics.
The battle against Brilliant City requires the help of cyborgs, so she specifically told Vincent the characteristics of cyborgs.
But Sophia will definitely make some modifications, this is what the bishop said at the time.
"When I left the Northern Territory, the Earl sent me one of his most elite soldiers.
They are the most powerful army in the Northern Territory, and because of this, I did not arrange them randomly on the battlefield. .
But tomorrow’s attack on heretics will certainly not be that easy.
Therefore, I intend to place that army under your command.
They have an extraordinary fighting will, and no matter how fierce the heretics attack, they cannot defeat them.
It’s up to you to maximize their effectiveness. " If someone else had said that they had an army that could withstand the heretics' fire and launch an attack, Vincent would definitely not believe it.
After seeing that heretic weapons could easily penetrate armor, he didn't think any army could do this.
However, he had seen the fighting methods of the Cyborgs in the North, and Vincent knew that Sophia was not bragging.
He has long known about the fact that the Lord Bishop has such a troop at his side.
Based on the relationship between Lorne and Sophia, such a force is obviously dedicated to protecting the bishop.
Now that the woman has handed over this army, it is obvious that Sophia has finally given up the idea of retreating.
As long as Sophia, as the supreme commander, is not so negative, Vincent is sure that they still have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
Moving north was, in his opinion, a last resort.
Here, he will fight a beautiful counterattack.
The great knight, who was no longer young, seemed to feel the blood in his body boiling.
This was something that had not happened in nearly twenty years.
The battlefield was calling him, and now that the church had fallen, Vincent found himself longing to return to the battlefield.
Maybe after today's battle is over, he will take off the badge representing the knights of the church.
And when the time comes, which side he will join to fight the heretics, Vincent has actually already decided.
The cathedral was certainly not his choice, as Vincent did not want to join a camp that was destined to fail.
Following Sophia, the Grand Knight knew very well how weak the cathedral was today.
Even if he joins in, Keira will not have the ability to counterattack the heretics.
But since Vincent doesn't plan to join the cathedral, as the Grand Knight Commander of Sophia, why would he bother to take off the church badge?
In fact, from this arrangement, we can see Wen Si Te's true thoughts.
Originally, Sophia meant for the reformer to be the protagonist in deciding the outcome.
From the woman's point of view, only the reformer could inflict heavy damage on the heresy.
But in Wen Si Te's arrangement, the modified people were treated as human shields.
He said that he relied on the strong resilience of the northern army to arouse the fighting mood of other soldiers.

Only by improving the combat effectiveness of the entire army can they defeat the heretics.
The key to determining victory or defeat is the remnants of the Stuart family's Bay Knights.
After Giles' return, the Bay Knights have entered a rebuilding phase.
With Lorne's support and Keira's reward, their number has reached six thousand.
Although it is still not as good as the Duke of Shanghai era, after coming into contact with these people, the atmosphere in the entire knight order of Vincent is very unique.
Perhaps because the team was led by people who had been to Glory City with Giles, everyone in the Knights had the same goal.
Defeating the heretics has become the oath of the Knights.
The philosophy is the same as his own, and the environment is several times better than that of Lorne and Sophia.
After the battle is over, it is self-evident where Vincent will go.
Even in order to make the future of this knight order smoother, he also used the convenience of his position to give them an opportunity to make contributions and become famous.
The honor of repelling the attack of the heretics and defeating the wizard was enough for the Knights of the Bay to regain their glory.
Moreover, helping a weakened family return to its peak is an opportunity for a knight to prove his self-worth.
Vince has not forgotten his original identity and cannot realize the salvation of his faith.
Returning to the path of knight is not the best choice.
After taking on several rearguard missions, this counterattack not only allowed him to vent his frustration, but also served as capital for Vincent to join the Gulf Knights in the future.
So even if he had a little selfishness, he still went to great lengths to make arrangements before the war.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no problem with his arrangement, he wouldn't have been able to get Sophia's nod.
After the Northern Cavalry delivered supplies and returned to the imperial capital, the Bay Knights were indeed an impactful force in the army.
Only cavalry that can move quickly can deliver a fatal blow to the heretic before it has time to react.
Vincent's combat thinking is to use the strength of the modified human to withstand the heretic's shooting and conduct a frontal attack.
Having seen with his own eyes how terrifying the army trained by Lorne was, Vincent was sure that the heretics would focus most of their attention on the frontal battlefield.
No one could have thought that such a powerful army was just a bait.
When the battle situation reached a stalemate or the heretic defeated Lorne's Cyborg and relaxed his vigilance, it would be the time for the Bay Knights to appear
