After leaving London, the Pullen Corps rushed all the way to the island of Ireland, preparing to join forces with the United Irish Army. However, King Pulun clearly understood that even if the two armies successfully merged, they were not sure whether they would be able to completely drive out the French Empire's 100,000 invading troops from the British Isles.
So far, although no country in the world has responded to the French Empire and jointly entered the British Isles. However, this is only a matter of time.
Denmark is a crouching tiger. Although it has experienced wars for a long time, its folk customs are extremely strong. The blood of bandits passed down from their ancestors has allowed them to thrash the wealth of the British Isles. Going south, the Roman Empire bordered Denmark. Although the King of Pren did not think that the Roman Empire would really give up its strategic layout in Italy and turn eastward in an attempt to plunder on two fronts, for some reason, the Pren King Wang always felt a little worried. No one knew what kind of decision Caesar, who built a powerful empire with iron and blood, would make. []
Today, the British Isles are in flames of war.
The British Empire exists in name only, and may evolve into a situation where heroes are vying for supremacy at any time. The London side probably can't count on their reinforcements. At this moment, they are lucky to be able to protect themselves.
When the English nobles were surrounded by heavy siege in London, no one came to help them, which shows that their ambitions and desires have already surpassed their reason. It would be foolish for King Pulun and Merlin to expect them to do anything under such circumstances.
But fortunately, there are still some loyal people among them. Shortly after the Pullen Army left London, they sent troops to London under the banner of rescue.
As for why they came to rescue the capital now and appeared as loyal people? No one knows this.
Horse hooves roared, trampling the steps of the army on the grassland, driving straight into the distance.
Under the moon, the knight rode his horse to Xiaya's side and said: "King, our army is now in a dangerous situation, with a small force against a large number, and it is even more isolated and helpless. In this case, I think we should give up the field battle and turn to And return to Dublin to defend the city. Only in this way can our army be in an invincible position and your safety can be guaranteed."
The worry in the words is self-evident. The Knight under the Moon seems to be caring about Char more and more recently, and it is even worse than before.
"What are you talking about, Yuexia. Retreating to the city can only put you in a passive position. Although we are at a disadvantage in numbers in outdoor battles, don't forget that we are the Pu Lun Army. No army in this world can be our opponent in a frontal war! "
This sentence was not said by Char, but by the Psalm Knight who appeared on Char's left side.
The Song Knight is the type who likes to take the initiative to attack, and hates being passively attacked when it comes to war. Therefore, she refuted the opinions put forward by the Knights under the Moon, believing that the Pullen Army should be the first to attack and gain the initiative.
Yuexia glanced at the Song Knight, feeling unhappy for a while.
"Is there no other circuit in your head besides offense?"
"Thanks for the compliment. It's much better than people who have too many circuits and lead to insanity."
The Song Knight stared back without showing any signs of weakness. The two of them stared at each other like fighting cocks, neither of them willing to give in.
Xia Ya has become accustomed to seeing the two people bickering. He acted very calmly, ignoring the two of them, and instead thought about some of the news transmitted from the "system" in his head.
To be honest, since half a year ago, apart from expanding the city and recruiting soldiers, Xia has almost never touched the system function again. This also leads to Xia Ya being used to relying on herself to complete certain things most of the time. This situation is both good and bad. The good situation is that it exercises Char's personal abilities and allows her to improve her mental state. The bad side was his greatest help. A super invincible cheating device was thrown into the cold palace by him, and he didn't even bother with it for three months.
"If it were an ordinary person, they would probably have jumped up and scolded their mother. Are there such time-travelers who waste their natural resources? !
So, when faced with this serious situation, Xia Ya finally woke up. Regardless of one's own strength or the glory of the King of Purun, they are all based on the powerful functions of the "system" and personal belief and worship. If King Purun is the spiritual pillar and god of all the people in King Purun City, then the system is the "god of faith" of King Purun.
Ignoring the original power and pursuing the so-called self-evolution is putting the cart before the horse for Char, who has a system.
Therefore, Xia Ya decided to abandon the previous methods that were as unsuitable for the system as possible, and instead wanted to fully develop everything about the system and completely integrate it into his own soul.

As soon as she opened the long-lost system page, four system announcements popped up in succession, which shocked Xia Ya.
It¡¯s only been three months since we last met, but I didn¡¯t expect that there were already so many triggered tasks in the system. By the way, when did it turn on mission mode? !
System Upgrade¡ª¡ª
The system has gone through several improvements and masters from the initial castle mode to the current city mode.
s hard work. Let the system collect enough information about the world to improve the system itself. Therefore, from the moment the system upgrade is completed, the mission mode, legendary mode, and epic mode functions will be available.
At the same time, reputation rewards, diplomatic rewards, and war rewards are also available.
Master
Currently, there are four tasks in progress. Upgrading the system and triggering the British plot belong to the mission mode and have been completed. According to the latest judgment standards of the system, the master will be rewarded
A wooden castle can be built at any location, and it also comes with two teams of horse archers, with a total of 160 knight members - not yet claimed.
Task progress: "Complete"
The decisive battle between Britain and France, mission description - Due to the outbreak of the century-old holy war between Great Britain and the French Empire, after a century of tug-of-war, at the end, the sudden rise of the empire played the soul of the kingdom of heaven.
Task requirements: master
Some troops should be organized to help the defeated army of the British Empire escape from the mainland. Completion of the mission will reward two hundred dismounted feudal knights, one hundred and twenty chain armored cavalry and thirty thousand gold coins. Mission failure - no penalty.
Task progress: "Failed"
French invasion, mission description - Due to the complete defeat of the British Empire, the British Isles are about to be stormy and uncertain. Coupled with the full-scale invasion of powerful countries with the intention of plundering, this is the first sign of troubled times.
Task requirements: master

A custom legion with a membership limit of 3,000 and no late-stage gunpowder troops. It will also reward 100,000 gold coins and a small town. Mission failed: (You have already been defeated and the country has been conquered, so there is no need to say anything more.)
Task progress: "Not completed"
Looking at these system prompts, Xia Ya suddenly felt a tightness in her chest, and a mouthful of blood almost spurted out.
" I am really speechless. I have tried so hard to guess the changes in the world, and I have not hesitated to prepare for war. I didn¡¯t expect that the system¡¯s ¡°Task Description¡± would cover all of them, and even if I opened this reminder date, I would be reminded a month before the troubled times first appeared! Unfortunately, I was stupid enough to guess left and right, and I wasted a whole month of preparation time.
??I regret it, I regret it!
Phew¡ªa mouthful of dog blood flew out of his mouth, flying all over the sky.
After sorting out the emotions of being cheated, Xia Ya rubbed her temples and continued to check the system's latest prompts.
Because the system has been upgraded, Xia Ya can now discover some data that was originally invisible. For example, originally, whether it was the town details of King Pullen or Dublin, the only option was to select the building column. Now, there is an additional dot under the options in the building bar, reach out and click to open it.
Suddenly, a void image two meters wide and one meter long appeared in front of Xia Ya.
In the void image, the crowds coming and going on Dublin's neat roads are projected. In no time, you can still see the Spartan Guards with heavy shields holding large shields and wearing bronze helmets. The detailed and clear images allow Char to fully grasp every move of anyone in Dublin. Moreover, this image is also a 3D version of the top view, which can rotate the perspective 360 ??degrees to observe every corner of Dublin.
Moreover, this system is based on master
The display mode can be changed autonomously by the user¡¯s consciousness.
For example, if Char wants to know where his army is, then everything in the image will be simplified, and only people moving back and forth marked with the word "army" will appear in the image. What if Xia Ya wants to know where his economic power lies? Then the system?Automatically exit "scrutiny mode" and enter the "tactical page".
When one, two, three, or even dozens of red dots appear around the map of Dublin, Char can find where his economic focus is.
Of course, most of these marked little red dots are still near the port. Around the red dots, there are countless objects with flashing blue light dots moving back and forth. They enter the port on the map, then leave the port, and sail into In the sea, and then leave the boundary of the map that the system can control at the moment, and drive into the distance.
To put it simply, this function is just like the function of viewing your own city in Rome Total War.
It¡¯s fast, easy, fun ¨C and strategically important.
But these are not the most important things. The most important thing is the army that Char is concerned about.
In the system of Medieval 2, there is a setting that is extremely painful. That is, cities can only be responsible for manufacturing the economy, but cannot produce advanced arms. Now the main positions in the Pullen Legion are still the levied spearmen and the British Archers (militia archers). Both of these belong to the militia series, which can be used to deal with early-stage wars, but once it reaches the mid-to-late stage, these militiamen are somewhat powerless.
Of course, for now, these militiamen wearing armor and holding sharp spears are still very good soldiers. But even so, they can't compare with the October Legion, which can defeat ten. Facing an army of 100,000 and enemies several times their own, these militiamen can only survive for a while and then be wiped out. They are completely unable to fight. At that time, the soldiers of King Purun City were comparable.
But thankfully, the century-old Blood City, a fortress captured by the Pullen Army not long ago, was actually defaulted to a castle building by the system.
Although the level is not the original "fortress level", it is just an ordinary "castle".
But for Xiaya at this moment, it is undoubtedly a powerful trump card to increase his own strength!
Castle - you can recruit feudal warriors, knights' attendants, chainmail cavalry, archers, sicklemen (refer to the Elbe Eagle) and many other types of troops. Although their combat power is still as powerful as that of feudal foot knights, they are already the real main force on the medieval battlefield. It is also the real "Pulun regular army" that Xia Ya has always longed for.
But the tragedy is that the century-old Blood City is so dilapidated that almost the entire castle is on the verge of collapse, so the reconstruction work is huge and consumes more money than an ordinary new castle. But because he skipped the wooden castle level and went directly to the rare level building like the castle, Char decided to restore it again.
Currently, the total number of gold coins owned by King Purun City is more than 320,000. The city usually consumes about 30,000 gold coins. The army maintenance cost is also more than 20,000 gold coins. The daily port trade income is about 40,000 gold coins, including goods. transportation, arms exports, tax revenue. The income of the city market fluctuates around 30,000 gold coins, including taxes on goods, leasing stalls, and buying and selling goods. In other words, apart from daily expenses, the net profit that Pu Lun King City can make is 10,000 gold coins. It has reached the stage of breaking even and rising profits.
¡°Coupled with the current turmoil in the world and the beginning of war, the business of arms trading has made King Pulun City very profitable.
The repair work of the castle requires 30,000 gold coins, which does not include various internal buildings such as castle barracks, knight stables, siege weapon fields, roads, and bow and arrow workshops If you want to repair these together, you will need at least 50,000 gold coins, and The time required is twelve rounds, which is about five days.
After all, this is not built from scratch, but repaired from the original foundation and increased in thickness, so the money and time required are about double that of ordinary buildings.
??Xia Ya thought for a while, and typed in her own mental command to confirm the repair indicators.
The century-old Blood City has been abandoned for a long time and is a dark and abandoned place.
A thousand Pulun defenders are stationed on the city. Their resolute faces seem to be unmoved by the sudden drastic changes in front of the earth.
The rolling red earth is like being covered with a layer of light green material by an artist waving his brush.
The withered earth began to regain its vitality. The smoky sky was blown away by a sudden typhoon. The golden sun finally shed its light on this land again.
The broken city walls began to collapse one by one, and new, wider and thicker walls rose from the ground to replace the original city walls.
?The earth was shaking inside the castle, but surprisingly, no matter how the environment changed, the bodies of the soldiers never moved.
Boom! A loud bang!
The outer wall of the castle has been repaired, and the huge and brand-new city wall will make any invading enemy feel fearful. However, the interior of the castle had not yet been fully restored. When a group of farmers appeared out of nowhere with hammers and planks of wood and began to jingle the interior buildings, the formal restoration work of the castle had just begun.
¡ª¡ªThere are still twelve rounds left before the repair is completed¡ª¡ª
Wow
Wow
The sea washes on the beach, and the cold water washes the young ankles.
The silver-haired girl is standing on the beach. She faces the east with a pious face, her hands crossed on her chest.
Read aloud the speech of the Holy Son, clear away the turbid things in your heart, and welcome the worship of sinners into the shining new world.
When the sky is bright and thirty, Kundek will tie his horse under the Luo tree, and the new-born god will compose a tragic song at dusk.
Slowly opening her eyes, Jeanne completed her daily prayer.
The slightly fishy sea breeze in the air blew against the white face, and the pair of dark blue pupils looking at the other side of the sky seemed to be a little more sad than the last time they saw her.
"Word of God: War is a devil, devouring the souls of kind people What a miserable and desolate scene."
In front of Joan of Arc, apart from the endless sea, there were corpses everywhere.
Swords and spears were scattered on the beach, flags were broken in the middle, and the deafening sound of fighting still echoed in my ears.
Although a battlefield with a hundred people is not as cruel as a thousand people or as heroic as a ten thousand people, it is still extremely bloody and inhumane.
Both sides fought desperately, and after the war, prisoners were killed indiscriminately out of hatred.
The hatred between the two has been accumulated for hundreds of years and has long exceeded the scope of ordinary feelings.
?????????????????????????????
There is no mercy.
There is no justice.
All this made Joan of Arc, who was exposed to war for the first time, shocked and crying from the bottom of her heart.
She was surprised by the cruelty of the war and cried for the bloodshed of the war.
When the small-scale conflict ended, she took off her cloth shoes and walked to the beach with bare feet.
Praying
Today¡¯s dusk is destined to be longer than in the past.
