Chapter 511 The Empire’s Conflicting Attitude

On the second floor of the Caledor Embassy, ​​Rachel, the highly respected ambassador in Erengrad, was reporting to a man standing by the window.

"After Rascal defeated Ulysses, he declared the gang leader guilty of two years of crimes and sentenced him to death before everyone watched."

"The mercenary army was officially headed by Rascal, and after he took over, he changed its name to the Patriot Army..."

The ambassador paused for a moment, and the development of the matter was somewhat unexpected. "The commandos organized by Mazov and Hilbot rushed into Gettleman's manor, killed all those who resisted, and dragged the vampire to the central square. Erlen Grad has turned into a melee situation, with the Patriot Army, vampires, and some city defense forces not yet under control."

"Do you have any casualty data from yesterday?" Masnow asked a question. Although it is interesting to be a guard captain after a long absence, one must not forget his true responsibilities.

"Four hundred and sixty-eight people, many of whom were civilians who were charmed by vampires, were used as cannon fodder to block musket bullets." The ambassador quickly explained the accurate data and analyzed it for the champion warrior: "The Patriot Army lacks magic and church skills. Support is just relying on military quality and gunpowder weapons to fight.”

Magic and the Church... two fighting methods monopolized by the rulers of Kislev. The Patriot Army is a group of soldiers. Even if they are temporarily able to fight with the implicit support provided by Caledor, they certainly cannot expand the situation. Just rely on recklessness.

"When will the next batch of cargo ships arrive?" Masno said calmly. Although the Kislev Orthodox Church almost lost its combat capability due to the infiltration of vampires, after the end of the Great Holy War, it was sent to the New World by the then Patriarch. The believers did not.

Even though the prince and his wife did not support the spread of the Four True Gods' faith in Qingyan Port, some small religious groups still emerged. Raskol also got the idea of ​​these people and issued a call to the patriarchs of Qingyan Port to jointly protect Kislev. With the motherland behind him, we have no way to retreat.

At least his plan was successful. About fifty or sixty priests set out with the cargo ship, as well as some priests who believed in Adaeus, about a hundred people.

"Three days later."

"Very good, is there any information worth mentioning?"

"According to the news from Mazov, a vampire army composed of Tsarist Guards and Lahmian maids is coming to Erengrad, as well as many necromancers."

Lahmia...

A sinister smile appeared on Masno's face. He had already heard from Mazov that a Lahmian matron had come to Kislev, and her mount was a zombie dragon resurrected from the Boneyard.

As long as this female vampire dares to show her head, the giant-horned viper can enter Kislev in the name of the dragon lord. Since the tsarina diplomatically denies the existence of vampires in the country, it is up to Caledor to deal with the desecrated dragon corpse. Vampires seem to be normal, right?

"Pay close attention to the movements of this vampire army. Once there is a zombie dragon, let the Iron Wolf attack."

"Understood."

…………

Keith Pier has been briefly used as a military base for the Patriot Army. Patrols wearing iron armor and carrying muskets are constantly walking. If there is any abnormal movement, it will be considered to be hindering the rescue of the motherland.

The officers' meeting would still last for a long time. Raskel, who was wearing a red horse-whiskered helmet at the main seat, pointed to one end of Erengrad, "The layout of Erengrad is difficult to have strategic depth. We need to find an open place." The location is to engage in head-on combat with vampires, rather than being trapped in a street fight in a complex environment.”

Although he has achieved quite a lot of success in the past few days, he has killed some vampires who were foraging in the dark, as well as Gettleman in Erengrad. But the sergeant knew that, no, he should be called a general now, at least that's what many people called him.

The general knew that this was just a time lag. In the first month after he came back, he used various legal means to protect his interests, making many people think that Misha's Eagle, like Winter Icicle, was a group of people who lacked the spirit of resistance. Soft egg.

This allowed the assault on vampires that started five days ago to achieve some success. At least after Gettleman died and the corpse hanging in the central square turned into a hairy bat-like shape, some officers in the city defense army chose to join the Patriot Army.

But once the vampire court reacts, they will definitely take countermeasures.

"I have contacted the Silver Hammer Knights in the Oster Territory. They will send a detachment to Erengrad, as well as the Mor Church in the Stir Territory. The Silent Knights are willing to support the operation to kill the vampires. "Mazov pointed to two locations on the old world map, "But this requires us to control the seaport. The passage to the southern states has been controlled by vampires. The empire does not intend to interfere in the internal affairs of a sovereign country before the situation is investigated."

"Haikou..." Raskel narrowed his eyes. Erengrad is the only port city in Kislev. The river patrol team is Hetman's most trusted army. The empire's merchant ships have been detained. The army's only supply of materials now comes from Caledor. The elves don't care who is in charge, but if they want to interfere with making money, they have to use ballistae to greet them.

However, it is difficult for a transport ship to actually control the situation. If the Caledor Royal Navy is invited here, it may cause more trouble. At least until he was in dire straits, he didn't want to seek help from Caledor's regular army.

Once the elves are allowed to march into Kislev, it will definitely be a disaster, both for politics and for the population, which is not large in the first place.

"Horned Viper, please contact Mr. Oliveira. Elf merchant ships have been threatened in Erengrad. As an armed force of the Caledo civil organization, Bighorn Viper has the obligation to protect the property and lives of the elves."

The general focused on the giant warship parked in the port of Osterland. Compared with the small wooden boat of the river patrol team, this has already caused a dimensionality reduction blow.

"Understood, I will contact Mr. Oliveira through the Caledo Embassy."

"What is the attitude of Emperor Magnus? I can't imagine that he can tolerate the existence of vampires in the city he once protected." The general mentioned the savior. If the savior brought Gail Maraz to Kislev , does not seem to be an unacceptable thing.

But then I thought, it would be better to let the Dragon Prince come.

"Magnus's attitude... He seems to find it hard to believe that Catlin has become a vampire, and he is still sending people to investigate the matter, but the efficiency of these southerners of the empire..." Mazov shook his head, saying that this matter was short-lived. Time will not settle.

With the Silver Hammer, who is responsible for secretly dealing with vampires and Chaos, and the Silent Knight, who guards the cemetery, already dispatched, Magnus's attitude is undoubtedly a bit strange.

"Maybe he did something with Katrin back then. Forget it, we still have to rely on ourselves in the end." Raskol joked, then pointed at the map and slid down a little bit from Keith's Pier in the north.

"Using Keith Pier as the central area, attack downwards to the two piers of Boulogne and Lid. No matter what method is used, I need to see the flag of the Patriot Army in two days. Evacuate the people near No. 4 Street, Use explosives to blow up the house and establish a position where the artillery can have a clear view. Fight off the first wave of vampire attacks."

After arranging the plan, the general stood up, slapped his chest with his hands and then stood up straight, loudly encouraging his non-commissioned officers.

"With the motherland behind us, we have no way to retreat!"
