"General, please be patient. The Holy See is a master of foresight and will not miss the opportunity to fight." Seeing that Mod was really about to get angry, the presiding judge comforted him.
Although this guy is a bit confused and can't tell the difference between the big king and the small king.
But after all, this is a battlefield, and he still has to command the war. No matter how stupid he is, we won't keep irritating him.
"Now that we are here, I will tell you the truth. The box contains an incredible weapon. This weapon has only been used by the Templars, and this is the first time it has been used in actual combat."
"The church calls it divine punishment. I've seen this weapon before. What you're concerned about now is the difficulty of attacking the city gate. As long as we have it, breaking the city gate will not be a problem."
"As long as the city gate is broken, our army will rush directly into the city. In a few days, Feika's royal city will be reduced to ruins."
The presiding judge spoke slowly.
General Maud's expression gradually changed.
Divine punishment?
The name sounds scary, and the presiding judge's words are obviously not groundless.
What kind of weapon could possibly break down the city gate?
Could it be something like a trebuchet? However, judging by the size of the objects loaded on the carriage, it was definitely not a trebuchet.
"Excuse me, but it's too idealistic to capture a city in just a few days. If things don't go smoothly, it may not even take several years."
"Excuse me, Judge, what exactly is the divine punishment weapon? Can I take a look?"
The presiding judge rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why rush? You'll know when you get there. It's very damp outside now, I think it's better to put it in a box for safety."
Maude was helpless and sighed: "Well, I hope everything is as the judge said."
......
Lai Gouer stood on the wall of Feka, holding a telescope.
In the field of vision, a large group of soldiers in the distance were slowly moving towards this side.
After observing for a long time, he slowly put down the telescope in his hand, looked at Duke Alvis beside him and said, "They are coming."
Duke Alvis' throat tightened: "Are you sure?"
"You have asked me for the third time. Are you sure you can see it today? Duke, please call Hope and Father Solger to the city wall. Since everyone is unsure, let's come and see it for ourselves." Lai Gou'er said.
The Duke nodded quickly, then hurried down the city wall.
When Hope and others were called to the top of the city wall, the figures of the Hero army were already clearly visible.
Looking at the aggressive enemy forces, there were many Holy City soldiers with reflective armor among them.
The Duke and others could not help but tremble in their legs, and only when they glanced sideways and saw a row of cannons on the city wall did they feel a little relieved.
Finally, the Greek army arrived at the city.
It stopped just over 500 meters away from the city.
Lai Gou'er narrowed his eyes, picked up the telescope and stared at the other person carefully.
He raised his right hand: "Artillery ready."
In front of the Heroic army, General Mod watched the Chief Judge directing the Templars and asked, "We are not even in the firing range for the assault yet. We are too far away."
"And Judge, shouldn't you send someone to the city to ask them to open the gates first? If the city knows that the Templars are coming and civil unrest breaks out, we can save a lot of effort if they take the initiative to open the gates."
"There is no need for that. The Holy See has ordered that they be destroyed directly! And I have nothing to say to these apostates."
The Templars began to unload the extremely heavy boxes from the carriage. The Chief Judge continued to give orders seriously, but the Cardinal beside him smiled grimly: "Just stop here. We can hit the city gate from this distance. General, haven't you always wanted to see the divine punishment weapon? You will see its power soon."
As the boxes began to be unloaded one by one, the Templars began to pry open the wooden boxes.
One after another, cold and heavy \u0027iron pipes\u0027 appeared before General Mod.
He stumbled and said, "This... This is the divine punishment weapon? How do I use it?"
"Look, don't ask!" The presiding judge smiled slightly.
Lai Gouer's pupils on the city wall shrank suddenly.
Grass!
cannon!
He was definitely not mistaken. What the other party took out of the box was a cannon!
Hope and the Duke on the side were also observing with telescopes. They were dizzy when they saw the Temple Army took out cannons that looked almost identical to the ones used by Dajing.
The color drained from Hope's face, his body swayed twice, and he muttered, "It's over, it's over."
But at this moment, a big hand suddenly grabbed his collar, and Lai Gou'er said angrily: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that the church has a cannon?!"
"The enemy has cannons. This is no longer an ordinary war. It will be difficult to defend the city now!"
"I...I don't know. I've never heard of it before." Hope was in tears.
He also wanted to know where the church got this thing from.
Father Solger's reaction was okay. Although he was scared, he stood steadily overall.
After all, he had no good feelings towards the church or the Temple Army.
Lai Gou'er looked at Duke Alvis coldly.
The Duke tremblingly took out a handkerchief from his pocket and kept wiping the non-existent sweat from his forehead.
When her eyes met Lai Gou'er's, her heart tightened and she screamed, "Why are you looking at me? I don't know anything, hurry up and kill him! While they are still preparing!"
Under the city, all the cannons had been dismantled and the soldiers began to load the shells.
General Mod watched nervously as the Templars approached the fuse with torches.
The judge laughed arrogantly: "Watch carefully, General, the situation of war is about to change!"
The cardinal crossed his arms and looked expectant.
