Chapter 400 The only way to go south

Yang Muyun stayed in Teutonic City for a few days, uprooting the old light faith in the city and firmly taking root in the new light faith.

For the common people at the bottom, let’s use the story of the shepherd girl to arouse these people’s dissatisfaction with reality.

Who has not been bullied by the rich, who has not been exploited by the church.

Even if you haven't experienced it personally, you should have seen it and heard it.

Even if you have never seen or heard of it, you still have to think about what you would do if your descendants had to suffer such a tragic experience.

The best way is to uproot the old light and completely eliminate this hidden danger.

As for the middle and high-level people in Teutonic City, it's even better to say.

A master of sword control, collective surrender.

The living beings in the North are born with hatred towards the Holy See of Light, and they have been sworn enemies from the moment they were born.

Because the Holy See of Light regards them as heretics and wants to get rid of them as soon as possible.

For thousands of years, people have been sent deep into the North to assassinate and destroy, and countless "heretics" have died directly and indirectly at the hands of the Holy See of Light. The hatred between the two sides has long been overwhelming and irreversible.

However, now, the people who hate the Holy See of Light the most are the latest converts of mankind.

Especially the Guardian Knights who had firmly believed in the light before.

As the saying goes, love is deep and hate is deep.

I had been deceived by the Holy Light all my life, but now I am a singing serf, and I have a big sword... Oh no, the big sword is striking at the head of the Holy See.

The Guardian Knights have been working for the Holy See for almost generations, but they have never received any substantial benefits.

The gain is far less than the effort.

The most important thing is that I believed in a false holy light and was deceived into doing evil by the false holy light.

Fortunately, the chosen one came to the world and forgave all his sins, allowing him to realize his lost path and turn from darkness to light.

Sin is easy to go away, but anger is hard to calm down.

These former Guardian Knights are all holding their breath. Only by pushing them to the Holy See Hall and smashing all the statues of the Holy See in the world can they forgive themselves and obtain true salvation.

In the past few days, Yang Muyun also had a preliminary understanding of the two protective knights who had converted to him, for example, he knew the names of their leaders.

The leader of the Silver Hammer Knights, Mond.

The leader of the Teutonic Knights, Charles.

They are both leaders of the Knights, but the two sides are completely different in terms of strength and power.

The Silver Hammer Knights are an empty shell. Currently, all their energy is invested in the construction of cities and territories. Even the knights and retinues are swinging sledgehammers on the construction site.

The Teutonic Knights are a time-honored brand that has been passed down for hundreds of years. They have a thousand knights, two thousand retinues, and other auxiliaries and reserves.

When the Teutonic Knights lowered their Holy Light Cross flag, wore off their armor with the Holy Light Cross pattern, and changed their name to the Teutonic Guardians.

The knights and retinues were later organized into the guardian formation, and the main battle force expanded to 3,000 people. In addition, the militia was mobilized, adding a reserve force of 3,000 people.

In other words, the Teutonic Guardian Group now has a fighting strength of 6,000.

In terms of number alone, it far exceeds Yang Muyun's army of dependents and the barbarian team of the Cedar tribe.

But the quality is hard to say enough.

Charlie, the leader of the Teutonic Guardians, sent a map to Yang Muyun.

"Great Chosen One, this is the defense layout of all the cities and passes of Sauron Kingdom. To our south is the headquarters of the Caucasus Legion. If we want to go south, we must conquer the Caucasus Legion and take the Caucasus Mountains into our hands."

The Teutonic Guardians are professional soldiers, and marching and fighting are their old profession.

As Charlie told it, Yang Muyun also vaguely understood his current situation.

After conquering four cities and passes along the way, he has penetrated thousands of miles into the Kingdom of Sauron, and he can be considered alone.

Moreover, as he walked and stopped along the way, the Kingdom of Sauron must have received urgent battle reports from the frontier and responded in time.

At this time, the Caucasus Army must have entered a state of combat readiness and are always ready for action.

So Yang Muyun asked: "How strong is the Caucasus Army?"

Charles replied: "The Caucasus were originally barbarians, but during the expansion of the Kingdom of Sauron to the north, the Caucasus tribe converted to the Holy Light, submitted to the Holy See, and were accepted by the civilized world."

Although the civilized world has not yet accepted the Caucasus people, it has at least verbally acknowledged it.

As he spoke, Charlie traced his fingers on the three mountain ranges stretching from north to south.

"This mountain range is where the Caucasus barbarians have lived for generations. There are many mountains in this area, the terrain is steep, and the terrain is broken. There is not even a flat place to be found. The knights cannot move at all, and the human infantry also has difficulties in supplying.

We can’t fight for a long time.”

Speaking of this, Charlie looked helpless.

When they first attacked the Caucasus barbarians, the ancestors of the Teutonic Knights participated.

It's just that both the ancestors of the Teutonic Knights and other knights fought very hard in that battle.

I clearly have twelve points of strength, but I can only use one point at most.

This is true for me, and even more so for the Kingdom of Sauron, and the Holy See of Light has no good solution.

The march northward stopped and hesitated for nearly fifty years, almost a generation or two.

In the end, the Caucasus barbarians lowered their stance and took the initiative to convert.

The Holy See really didn't want to waste any more money, so it promised a lot of benefits and accepted the Caucasian barbarians with a pinched nose.

Charlie said: "The Caucasus barbarians only operate in the Caucasus region and do not leave this area. At the same time, outsiders are not allowed to enter their territory. Pedestrians and merchants traveling from north to south have to pay them a large amount of money when passing through the Caucasus Pass.

A toll."

After hearing this, Yang Muyun took a closer look at the Caucasus Legion's station.

There are mountains on both sides. The terrain is broken and full of cliffs. There is not even a flat ground to be found. Horses cannot run and people cannot lie flat.

But there is a flat mountain road in such a mountain range.

Not only is it vertical from north to south, but the terrain is flat, and there is no bumping sound when a carriage walks on it.

It is such a remote and remote place, but like the Strait of Malacca and the Suez Canal, it is the only way for the civilized world to go north.

Except here, going north from anywhere else requires climbing over mountains and ridges. Not only is the journey long, but it is also full of dangers. If you are not careful, you will lose both your life and money.

Therefore, the best way is to take the Caucasus Valley entrance.

You only need to pay a sum of money to buy the road, and you can travel from north to south, saving time and effort.

People who often take this road can still keep it for a year.

Not only the merchants, but also the Kingdom of Sauron and the Holy See of Light had to pinch their noses and admit defeat. Anyone who took this road would have to pay.

Charlie coughed and said: "They didn't pay the money openly, but secretly and in other forms."

When he said this, Charlie blushed for the Holy See of Light.

The two sides trade freely and exchange what they need.

The Holy See of Light provides holy water and other spiritual materials to the Caucasian barbarians every year, while the Kingdom of Sauron provides iron tools, food, cloth, medicine, etc. to the Caucasian barbarians.

The Caucasus region is a barren and remote place, and there is basically nothing that can be obtained. In other words, some local specialties from the mountains, such as magic fruits, animal skins and bones, etc., can be donated symbolically to the Holy See.

As for the Kingdom of Sauron, Caucasus doesn't even bother to give away any stones. It just sits on the ground and collects money every year.

The goods are in place and a few passes are issued. If the goods are not in place, I'm sorry. I opened this road and planted this tree.

Yang Muyun was very curious, "What is the confidence of the Caucasus barbarians? Doesn't the Holy See have the trump card of angels? Is there nothing they can do about it?" (To be continued)
