Please Call Me Cyber Ghost King

The army of the Western Kingdom quickly assembled. There was no other way. The incident happened suddenly and the situation was critical. They could not afford to delay.

Just as King Louis XXVI said, if they didn't go quickly, they would not have to go. The enemy had already reached their doorstep.

Several Grand Dukes led the army to the Royal City, and at this time the Empire's army was already at the gates of the city.

The defense line on the east side of the Royal City had been completely destroyed by the Imperial Army. Standing on the Royal City at this time, you could already see the arrogant Imperial soldiers showing off their power, which was very demoralizing.

In the palace, in the meeting hall, Louis XXVI met with the Grand Dukes who came to help. They were all on the same boat now, so there was no need to be polite. They went straight to the point.

As vested interests, they certainly did not want the status quo to be changed, and they did not want the kingdom to be defeated by foreign pagan invaders.

After all, the system of the Empire has always been based on the county system, which naturally conflicts with the Western Kingdom based on the feudal system.

If these feudal nobles surrender to the empire, they will definitely lose their current power, and the empire will definitely not allow them to continue to divide the land and enfeoff themselves.

Therefore, in order to protect their own power, these feudal nobles have emptied their old pockets one by one in this rescue. They are not fighting for the country, but for their own interests.

"Let's not talk too much. Who will lead this battle?"

Louis XXVI was very straightforward and started to select the generals directly. With so many people gathered together, the composition of the army was a mess. It was necessary to select a real person in charge to lead everyone.

Although Louis XXVI himself was not good at military strategy, he at least understood politics. It would definitely not work to let the army fight on its own at this time. A main general must be selected, and it must be a main general that everyone is convinced of, so that the combat effectiveness of the army can be maximized.

The grand dukes looked at each other and finally looked at the oldest one, Theodore Fuchs, a big warlord in the south of the kingdom, who almost controlled most of the land in the south of the kingdom.

"Grand Duke Foss, please take command."

Louis XXVI nodded, and was quite satisfied with the result. Everyone chose the leader at the first time, which showed that Grand Duke Theodore Foss could be recognized by everyone and should be able to lead the coalition forces well.

If it was normal, seeing that Grand Duke Theodore Foss was so popular, Louis XXVI would definitely start to worry. What if Grand Duke Theodore Foss wanted to sit on the throne of the king on a whim, wouldn't it be a one-man show?

Of course, the situation is different, and the result may not be the same. If it is really calm and there is no external pressure, the other grand dukes probably won't support Theodore Foss to make trouble.

Thinking about it, if it is not necessary, who would be willing to hand over their army to others to command?

The white-haired Theodore Foss frowned. He was not surprised that he would become the commander of the Kingdom Army. He was surprised that the Empire's army seemed to be waiting for them on purpose.

The empire's army arrived at the royal city earlier than them, but they just surrounded it without fighting, and did not even continue to infiltrate the east of the royal city, but simply set up camp in the west.

This operation is like deliberately waiting for their reinforcements to come.

If this is really the case, then we must be doubly careful. The other party dares to wait for them to come, so they must be sure to deal with them. Maybe they still have some killer mace that they haven't used yet, just waiting for them to come and then catch them all in one fell swoop.

Theodore Foss felt very weak in his heart. The strength of the empire was visible to the naked eye. The eastern part of the royal city fell rapidly at a terrible speed. Even if the people in the east were all pigs, they couldn't be caught so quickly! It can only be said that there must be a generation gap in combat effectiveness.

Theodore Foss was not sure that he could defeat the imperial army. He was ready to die. This was not a joke. They didn't even know the imperial army yet, so what was the point of defeating them? He could only pray that he would not be crushed.

"Go and test their strength first."

Theodore Fuchs took a deep breath and made a conventional decision.

Since we are here, we can't just stay in the city and not go out. That would hurt morale. If we defend the city when the reinforcements are not here, and defend the city when the reinforcements come, then the reinforcements will come in vain, right? We have to go out and fight the enemy first.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you, Grand Duke Fuchs."

King Louis XXVI wanted to be obedient and immediately expressed his support for Theodore Fuchs. Others had no objections and they quickly made the decision to go out of the city to fight.

Theodore Fuchs led the team personally, and the Grand Dukes followed him. In this first battle, they all wanted to have a good start.

"Sister, look, the enemy is out of the city!"

Outside the royal city, Hei Tong and Chi Tong stood side by side. Hei Tong looked at the city gate with some surprise. The city gate was slowly opening, and then the knights of the Western Kingdom rode out of it.

"It seems that these people are not just trying to be cowards."

Akagami also smiled. After the arrival of the reinforcements, these foreign ethnic groups in the Western Kingdom finally plucked up their courage and finally stopped hiding in the city and dared to come out to fight them head-on.

This was exactly what Brand wanted. He wanted to defeat the Western Kingdom's army on the battlefield in an open and aboveboard manner, so that these people in the Western Kingdom would not always think that they relied on sneak attacks and won unfairly. The Western Kingdom would not necessarily lose in a head-on battle.

"The army has also moved. It seems that General Brand is ready to fight."

Black Tong and Red Tong were looking at a small hill. The location here was very good. They could see the east gate of the royal city and the imperial army’s barracks. It was an excellent place to watch the battle. The two of them served as vanguards and fought several times. He fought with spies from the Western Kingdom and killed many of them but also took a fancy to the spies here.

"Come on, let's go back too."

Seeing the army moving, Red Tong and Black Tong were also preparing to return to camp. This battle was very important and could almost determine the final direction of the war.

The Western Kingdom has experienced great defeats along the way, and is in urgent need of a victory to reverse the decline of the war and break the myth of the Imperial people's invincibility. However, once the Imperial army suffers heavy losses, all previous efforts can be said to be in vain.

There is no way, after all, the empire is an expeditionary force, unlike others who fight on the mainland. Once the edge is frustrated, it will easily fall into ruin.

The newly occupied areas in the rear will quickly become chaotic, and a good situation may be wasted due to the defeat of this battle.

"Don't worry, they're just a bunch of chickens and dogs."

In the imperial army camp, Esdeath didn't care at all about these foreign peoples in the Western Kingdom. As long as she was allowed to take action, they would be easily captured.

"It's a pity that you are no longer needed."

Brand shook his head. The plan had changed. In order to make it easier to govern the Western Kingdom, the protagonist of this battle could only be one person.

That's right, His Majesty the Great Emperor, Ke Ling has arrived at the camp. At the request of Nadjeta and the leader of the Emperor's Cult, he is here to make the final decision and demonstrate the power of the God-Emperor.

Brand's idea of ​​adapting to a war without the Teigu User was shattered. The great Emperor will personally take action to end the war. This is a terrifying existence that is even more buggy than the Teigu User.

"Let these pagans see what a real miracle is, let them see what the power of the true God is, and they will abandon that false god and eventually convert to the faith of the true God."

The leader of the Emperor's Church is like a magic stick, dedicated to his duties. The Western Kingdom has a strong religious atmosphere, and the presence of religion is much stronger than that of the empire. After discovering this, the leader of the Emperor's Church was transferred over and began to work in the occupied areas. Preach.

Ke Ling's arrival is precisely for this reason. They need to let the false god believers in the Western Kingdom see the power of the true god, so as to reverse the belief of these false god believers.

The leader of the Imperial Religion used the same method as before. Before, he transformed Tranquility Dao into the Imperial Religion. Now he can also integrate the religion of the Western Kingdom into the Imperial Religion. The winner can be devoured as a matter of course. Everything for the loser, and the false god will be devoured by the true god.

"Array up!"

On the broad plain outside the royal city, the kingdom's army began to form an array. They had a lot of troops, but there were not many truly elite knights. Most of these knights were powerful and wealthy aristocratic children, and only they could afford to play this game. kind of project.

In addition, there are standing troops with average combat effectiveness, and then, there are serf levy troops that can be said to be vulnerable.

The army was arrayed on the plain, and it looked like a large and powerful group. Various colorful family flags and badges were flying, which was very characteristic of feudalism, like a rabble.

The Imperial Army also took up a stance. This was the first time since entering the Western Kingdom that the Imperial Army and the Royal Army took on a stance.

The previous battles were either blitzes or offensive battles. There was never such an evenly matched encounter. It was a pity that this time was not a regular encounter either.

Theodore Foss stepped forward on horseback, ready to spout some trash talk to boost his morale, regardless of whether the Imperial people on the other side could understand him.

But before he could speak, his expression froze.

The Imperial Army on the opposite side suddenly began to shout "Long Live the Emperor" in unison, over and over again, and in front of the military formation, a figure dressed like their Pope was dancing.

"Please ask the God Emperor to show his divine power! Punish these unclean heretics! Kill the evil false gods who claim to be gods! Long live the God Emperor!"

The Imperial Army's shouts rang out, causing Theodore Foss's expression to change suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

In fact, he was not the only one who had this premonition. All the royal troops began to feel uneasy. This situation was so strange that even the priests accompanying the army were dumbfounded.

Then, their uneasiness became a reality, and they saw dark clouds in the sky. It was clear that the sky was clear just now, but with the shouts of the Imperial Army, everything changed.

"Boom!"

Above the sky, thunder flashed, and a terrifying figure loomed in the thunderclouds, its slender body winding around.

"Retreat! Retreat! Get out of this thundercloud!"

Sensing something bad, Theodore Foss immediately issued an order. No matter what it was, it was not something they could match. If they didn't retreat at this time, were they still waiting for the other party to take action?

"boom!!!"

However, just as he shouted, a bolt of lightning descended and hit him straight. Theodore Foss's eyes widened and he had no time to dodge, and his whole person was completely enveloped by the lightning.

"Plop."

A charred corpse fell off the horse, and the horse collapsed on the ground like a pile of mud.

"Grand Duke Forfus!"

Seeing this scene, everyone in the Wang Guojun was dumbfounded. They were all stunned, obviously unable to understand what was happening.

"boom!"

Then, something even more incomprehensible happened. A thick ray of light spewed out from the thundercloud. The terrifying monster poked its head out, and the rays from its mouth carved gullies on the ground. Everyone who was swept by it evaporated instantly.

"Ahhh!!!"

"Run! Run!"

The formation of the kingdom army was instantly in chaos. They ran around like headless flies, each running for their lives, trying to avoid the terrifying divine punishment.

"Boom boom boom!"

Thunders fell one after another, hitting the crowd. Wherever the terrifying rays went, no grass grew. People screamed incessantly. The kingdom's army collapsed in an instant and fled to the royal city.

At this time, the king and dignitaries who were watching the battle in the royal city were silent. They had seen everything that happened.

"Archbishop, will my lord help us?"

Louis XXVI looked at the archbishop beside him with a numb expression and asked such a question. Obviously, he no longer believed that the current situation could be reversed by human power. Even the gods were coming! Is this a force that humans can resist?

"My Lord"

The Archbishop widened his eyes and stammered.

What should he say? My Lord can also come out to fight the enemy? Just think about it, he himself doesn't believe it!

"Archbishop! People's faith should be rewarded! If my Lord doesn't take action, the whole kingdom will be destroyed, and the Lord's faith will be the same!"

Louis XXVI was like grabbing the last straw. He yelled hysterically at the Archbishop. Not only him, but everyone around him was staring at the Archbishop. At this point, they could only hope in their "God".

"This, this. I."

The Archbishop trembled and couldn't speak at all. He was scared, scared by the true God soaring in the sky. Not only him, but everyone present was shocked.

The special trait from Esdeath [The Strong are Respected] showed its power at this time, which directly scared these people.

"False God! He is a false God!"

Someone shouted in horror, and of course they were talking about their Lord.

If it were normal times, anyone who dared to say this would definitely be burned at the stake, but at this moment, no one refuted it, not even the archbishop himself, and naturally no one else would.

Looking at what was happening before his eyes, it was clear who was the true God and who was the false God.
