"Ars, you are so brave. Not only did you disobey the Pope's orders, but you didn't even listen to Lord Jose's orders. Your heart has been completely polluted by the pagans. You, the God-behind, will definitely be sent to the stake!" Julio pretended to be angry, but he was secretly happy. With a wave of his hand, the guardian knights and the Paladins around him were about to pounce on him.

"Julio, you pig, now our Majesty Cape has passed away, are you going to start murdering Als? Yesterday was our king, today it was me and Als, who will it be tomorrow?" Rehager said first. Although this big man is rough and generous, he is very meticulous. He deliberately linked Cape's death with the persecution of Als. Moreover, the hidden meaning in his words is that you guys are inseparable from Cape's death, and later it has involved many people from the Western Alliance.

Sure enough, when the Western Generals and Generals around him heard this, they all looked thoughtful, and even looked at Julio with suspicion, and even quietly aimed at the Pope.

Cape XIV's sudden death involved too many benefits. Therefore, although many people had doubts, no one was willing to ask. Today, Als and Rehager revealed it one after another, which made these people feel sad. Cape, as the lord of a country, could die in his own country so unknown, and no one could guarantee whether he would die in a foreign country because of "blocking the road" in the next moment.

Although they still dare not speak in person today, every word of Rehagel's words has already planted the seeds of mutual suspicion in these people's hearts.

If Stera, the "Hell Dog" was present, she would definitely laugh: "This big man looks simple, but he can fool you all!"

"You, you, Thor, don't be slandering!" Julio's expression changed and he thought to himself that this big man looked tepid and dull, but why was he so eloquent?

"Enough, Julio, get out of here!" Pope Urban was so angry that his face turned blue and waved his hand.

Julio had no choice but to bend down to apologize. After looking at Als with a resentful look, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Julio, where are you going?" Als shouted loudly and suddenly flew towards Julio. Julio was prepared for it. However, Alsdu was too fast and his left arm was cut off while trying his best to dodge.

"Ah--" Julio screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

"Come on, grab Ars!" The Pope was so angry that his hands trembled and pointed at Ars.

"Who dares to touch Als!" Rehager roared and stopped him.

Several guardian knights and hundreds of Shenwei troops who had been observing the situation around him immediately surrounded him.

"Catch him!" the guardian knight in front of his head shouted.

"Lord Thunder God, Lord Mingyue Knight, we are here!" As he was speaking, a pair of people rushed over and surrounded the Divine Power Army.

"It was the Mingguang Knight you stayed in the camp, and my Thunder Iron Knight." Lehagel blinked his eyes, and it seemed that this big man had already had the idea of ​​taking action.

"Leo, why are you doing this..." Als was helpless, looking at this big man who was older than him but like his brother, and felt helpless and moved.

"You are Mingyue, I am Thor, I am Rehager who was born to protect Mingyue." Rehager said seriously.

On April 25, 999, the Central and Southern Empire Province.

Lei Dongfeng led the Kuanglan Army to set off from Anyang Prefecture and returned to Zhongdu Longyang.

On this day, Lei Dongfeng and others had already received news that the Pope's army was heading for 6 in Wanghai Prefecture, the East China Sea Province. Xiahou Junjie, who had originally wanted to fight with the Kuanglan Army in Longyang, heard the news and immediately led the Benlei Army to set off and reply to Yanbei, preparing to listen to the dispatch of the Empress Capital. The Boyang Army led by Wang Huaiyu is now unable to return home. His old nest Wanghai was occupied by Western coalition forces. In addition, he had already been classified as Yanbei Camp and agreed to dispatch, so he was simply arranged to station in Anyang Prefecture by Xiahou Junjie.

In Xiahou Junjie's eyes, the Central and Southern Provinces will definitely be one of the main battlefields in the future. The Western coalition will not allow such a nail to exist beside him. Therefore, Wang Huaiyu, who also had this idea, complained about staying in Anyang Prefecture, but the soldiers took obedience as their duty, and even if they knew this danger, they had to do it. Even if they were like Xiahou Junjie, returning to Yanbei Province first was not to escape, but to prepare for battle and listen to the dispatch of the Later Emperor's capital at any time.

After all, it is impossible for the emperor to sit idly by the Western coalition and to organize a counterattack sooner or later.

Lei Dongfeng was going to return to Longyang first and arrange everything. He followed him with two other carers Meng Xing and Wu Dong from the imperial capital "Jiangshan Public Opinion".

As for Zhuge Ting, he directly followed Xiahou Junjie's army to the north and took a detour from Yanbei to return to the imperial capital to report his life.

"Brother, Longyang is well built now. With the cooperation of the rebel army, the Sima Nan Legion has wiped out all the Western coalition forces in the surrounding towns and towns. Just wait for us to go back and start production with all our might." Zhang Ce said.

The full-scale production mentioned by Zhang Ce refers to the major event of the resumption of production in the high-level ordnance field in Zhongdu Longyang.

Jose wanted to use the Longyang Ordnance Field that day, but for various reasons, he had to abandon it halfway. As soon as Lei Dongfeng and others recovered Longyang, they began to discuss the matter of restoring production. After all, letting those craftsmen follow the army all the time is because of this preparation.

Moreover, after several battles, the ordnances of the Kuanglan Army and the Fenwu Army were seriously damaged, and the Fenwu Army was better. With the deployment of the military headquarters, the Kuanglan Army is now completely self-sufficient. For the Kuanglan Army, which is mainly cavalry stations, and the Kuanglan Army infantry who are on the route of elite vine armored spears and archers, the arrows, swords, bows, and even the flying spears of the Kuanglan Cavalry are in short supply, so the ordnance field immediately resumed work and was put on the agenda.

"Very good. Fei Ge immediately sent a letter to the Sima army, asking him to produce arrows first, and at the same time, let Musa and Mr. transport the vine armor collected from Yunnan and Guizhou Province to Longyang as soon as possible. And the thunder and fire bomb you Ming, don't you leave a few craftsmen there, let them start preparing. If the imperial capital orders war, there will definitely be no time." Lei Dongfeng said.

In fact, in response to the troubles and scarcity of making rattan armor, Musahe proposed a suggestion to Lei Dongfeng. First, on the basis of the bamboo armor of Han soldiers, it was soaked in tung oil and reprocessed according to the process of making rattan armor. Second, Xue Yulin drove a large number of Western coalition prisoners to Annan, the empire's vassal state. The natives there also could produce rattan armor, so they could easily purchase them in the local area as they were, and invested in asking local craftsmen to produce them in large quantities and were responsible for transporting them back.

Of course, these are all later stories, but the current task is to complete the most intimate arrows of the Kuanglan Army. Zhang Ce naturally understood this truth and immediately ran to write a letter to pass on the letter.

"It's a pity that the machines and workers who assemble the bed crossbows are still on the way. Otherwise, more simple bed crossbows with a conspiracy will be produced. In the future, the development will definitely surprise those Western coalition forces." Lei Dongfeng thought to himself.

On that day, Longcheng fell. In order to prevent the production technology and equipment of the bed crossbow from falling into the hands of the Western coalition, Sima Nan not only took away all the craftsmen, but most of the machines were dismantled, while those that could not be dismantled were destroyed.

This is also the reason why the Western coalition forces occupied Longyang for several months but were unable to open a bed crossbow. However, before Lei Dongfeng recovered, the Western coalition forces had restored several production lines of hand crossbows and secretly transported them to the East China Sea with the batch of food and supplies.

This also leaves hidden dangers for the future battle between the two armies.

However, these are not the things that are in front of you after all. Lei Dongfeng is most worried about now, the food and grass issues of the army.

"The military affairs are easy to deal with, but the military headquarters does not provide food and grass, and the Western coalition forces transport almost all the food and grass away. It is really difficult for the army to transport food only in Sichuan." Lei Dongfeng frowned.

"Then go to the imperial capital to ask for food. Since the British marquis took us under his command, we would not see us starving to death." Li Yan said.

"The imperial capital is nearly a thousand miles away from here. If you want to come for food and grass, the war will start long ago. This can only be a long-term plan. At present, we must solve the urgent problem." Li Ruoxi mercilessly denied his brother's plan.

In Li Ruoxi's opinion, it is not impossible to go to the imperial capital to ask for food. Although Zhuge Ting said that there would be no supply on that day, although many things in the empire were clearly written, they rely more on walking. Throughout history, this has been the case. What's more, the British Marquis obviously supports his own army now, so it is natural that he can go to the imperial capital to stir up the muddy waters and touch a few big fish to get ashore.

However, after all, it takes time, and what is needed is food and grass that can be solved nearby. Li Ruoxi is not a god and it is difficult to transform into it for a while.

"If there are food and grass, the four people in the empire have storage at home. I will touch the people from our Taishang Taoist Temple to collect grain for the Lei Army. And you can tell that the Lei Army is at the junction of the southwest of our Central and South China Province and Sichuan and Shaanxi Province. There are many local tyrants, and there are also a large number of horse bandits. Which of these people has tens of thousands of loads of food and grass? If the adults are short of food, they can start with them." Seeing that everyone was a little silent, Dao Xu Huanzong of the Taishang Taoist Temple touched his white beard and smiled.

"You old guy is a hand that bows your head and knocks down your sticks? However, what Mr. Xu said makes sense. I have heard of those people. Most of them are local tyrants. Most of the farmers have harvested. However, those horse bandits are special. Many of them are local farmers, who organize themselves and rarely trade grains with the government. They accumulate more for their own use, and even use them to exchange weapons with smuggled merchants and travelers." Old Dao Lin Qingping said.

"Well, this method can help the emergency, but it does not cure the symptoms. Since the Kuanglan Army has a formal organization, it cannot help but ask for food from the empire. We can send people to the southwest to collect grain, and at the same time go to the imperial capital to find British marquis to ask for food." Lei Dongfeng said.

"Lei Army, I heard from Jing Zhan that day he rushed to Central and South China and conquered a team of horse bandits near Sichuan and Shaanxi Province and Central and South China Province. There are still soldiers in our army at that time. If he could contact those horse bandits again, the food collection would be easier." Li Ruoxi thought for a while and finally came up with a way of thinking.
