Chapter 1164: Sniper (II)


Let Carmen make the decision alone.

Of course, Carmen should solve problems if they arise.

But Carmen has been a pope, but she has never commanded an army.

Those who commanded the army on her behalf were all former Imperial Army knights.

The criteria for selecting officers are not past performance and previous positions.

For an army that relies on the Holy Light to fight, the first thing it values ​​is, of course, the piety of its faith.

Carmen would reject all those guys who couldn't draw the Holy Light.

Therefore, although her army is full of fighting power under the influence of the Holy Light.

But without the Holy Light, it is very weak in every aspect.

Even Arthur can win in a head-on confrontation.

Facts have also proven this.

After Arthur led another raid on the peripheral troops of the Holy Light Legion, Carmen pieced together a cavalry and planned to completely deal with the troublesome northerners.

Naturally, the leader could not be Carmen himself, but a few knights with firm beliefs.

They had long been holding back their anger towards Arthur and his group who dared to attack the believers.

After receiving the order, they succeeded in catching Arthur's tail and pursued him all the way.

But how could the war horses produced in the interior of the empire compare with the war horses in the north.

After chasing and escaping, and running directly out of the radiation range of the Holy Light Legion, Arthur tried to fight back at the enemy who was chasing after him.

The result was of course a victory for the northern cavalry.

Without the Holy Light, the believer cavalry, which had severely depleted the strength of their horses, was no match for the northern cavalry, who rode one man and two cavalry.

But after easily disposing of the enemy, Arthur was still not proud.

This guy was even worried that he would attract revenge after annihilating the opponent's cavalry.

For the sake of his own life, he chose to withdraw his troops to complete another mission of Lorne.

Fortunately, this guy chose to withdraw his troops, because the fake Keira was indeed revealed as Arthur had guessed.

It only takes one person to instantly turn the mob into a terrifying army that is not afraid of death.

Unfortunately, Arthur has already stopped, and there is no target for the woman to show her power.

As Lorne said, seeing the powerful Northern Cavalry The noble contacted him secretly.

Ordinary nobles would do this little thing, and the Barton family, which was exploited by the cathedral, would naturally not let Keira's endless demands.

They have been watching the situation in the empire.

If it were not for the appearance of the Holy Light Legion, they would have fallen into the arms of Lorne.

Hearing that the Holy Light Legion had suffered repeated defeats under the attacks of the northern cavalry, the Barton family also launched a series of discussions.

But it will definitely be difficult to unify opinions if there are many people, especially family members who have seen the dead resurrected in the imperial capital.

Their opinion is to continue to wait and see.

Of course, this was before Arthur arrived.

When they knew that it was their young relative who had recently blocked the church from winning a lot of victories, even those who admired the Holy Light Legion had no shame in speaking out.

Even the Stany family army led by Arthur could easily deal with the cathedral and even win.

Whether the Legion of Holy Light was really that powerful, the Barton family began to have doubts.

Their hesitation saved Arthur a lot of money, but if he wanted them to support Lorne just like that, Arthur definitely didn't have the ability.

Lorne did not expect the Barton family to turn to support him.

He only needed them to stop supporting the cathedral, and that was enough for him.

On this point, the Barton family is very cooperative.

The reason for funding Keira in the first place was to deal with heretics.

In the current battle with the North, the Barton family has expressed its neutral attitude on the pretext that the heresy has not yet been eliminated.

With the entire Northern Territory as his backing, Lorne didn't care too much about the Barton family's neutrality.

But when the news reached Carmen’s ears, she couldn’t choose to ignore it.

The Barton family does not provide logistics for the Holy Light Army, and the assembled army cannot fight at all.

The supplies left in the imperial capital were basically wiped out by Sophia, and even the equipment was not complete.

Even if they defeated the troops stationed at the border in the north, it was impossible for them to continue deep into the north in the cold weather to expand their results.

The Holy Light can make the army invincible during combat, but it is not truly omnipotent.

When Carmen told the fake Kayla about the current situation, the women also understood the trouble they were in at the moment.

"Which family has the most financial resources in the empire now?"

After all, after so many years, it was impossible for the woman who came back to understand these things specifically, so she asked Carmen to find out.

"The most wealthy family in the empire was originally the Stuart family, and most of the wealthy families were also concentrated in the south.

For example, the Adrian family has been married to the Stuart family for generations, but the south has been occupied by heretics.

The imperial capital has been damaged again, and among the families near the north, only the Barton family can bear our needs.

Once they fall to the north, we won't have enough food to supply the army. " Not to mention food, because there was such a big omission all of a sudden, in order to fill it, Carmen had to find a way from other places.

As a result, weapons and equipment that were not in short supply may not be able to meet the needs of the army.

At this time, Carmen could only think of two solutions.

"Your Majesty, why don't we reduce the number of troops.

With the guidance of the Holy Light, even if the number is small, it is enough for us to defeat the evil and shameless villain Lorne Fast."

Reducing the army is the most peaceful way.

But the fake Keira did not agree because she knew that the army in the north was not that weak.

Today, there are only more than 100,000 of them, which is a very small number compared to the entire Northern Territory.

If you cut it the way Carmen did, it wouldn't be very difficult to defeat Lorne's garrison at the border.

But it is impossible to catch Lorne.

The target was Lorne's balls, and fake Kayla rejected Carmen's suggestion in one bite.

"No, one hundred thousand is already the minimum number.

After reducing the number, it will not be able to pose a threat to the northern border at all."

If we cannot reduce the number of troops, we can only find ways to replenish the supplies we need.

It was too late to attack the Barton family.

Carmen's suggestion was: "Then we can only seek help from other lords and gather the support of many nobles.

We should be able to get enough equipment and supplies."

Even the Barton family has publicly stated that it will not intervene in the battle between the North and the cathedral.

How can other nobles contribute selflessly?

Even though Carmen vowed that there would be true believer nobles who would donate their property, their marching and expropriation actions still aroused the backlash of many lords
