Although sending only Ligurian troops to support Ferdinand was somewhat suspected of not paying enough attention to the great emperor, Ladislaus indeed could not send other elites. His troops were too busy.
The troops who rushed into the city not only had to attack the city walls and control the key points in the city, including the granaries and weapons depots, but also protected the residences of the German and Spanish cardinals from being looted by the rebels.
The rebels were none other than the famous Naples Corps.
The Prince of Orange's own Dutch Legion and Arcane Legion are also doing the same job as Ladislaus, controlling the cannons on the city walls and protecting some key strongholds.
But most of the Naples troops, especially the French Bourbon Army, have completely lost their bottom line after losing the Duke of Bourbon. They are burning, killing and looting hysterically in the city of Rome.
Yes, the burning character is at the forefront, and the fire has already started in several places in the city.
This is the biggest and most thorough way to destroy civilization and wealth, and it is a much greater atrocity than robbery.
Although it is far less grand and prosperous than the ancient Roman Empire, when the city as the center of the empire had a population of more than 500,000, the Cyric Church has been operating for thousands of years, and there are still many amazing works of art and cultural essence in this city.
Now all this will be used to please Cassius.
Neither the Prince of Orange nor Ladislaus wanted this to happen. Such robbing soldiers might be able to satisfy their animal desires and make a lot of money at the same time, but they really couldn't get anything.
But now there are not enough elite troops to control order anyway. The soldiers are fighting for gold, jewelry and other valuables, and the guards who are still very orderly have to fight for other more important trophies.
Although Ladislaus and Prince Alunji were friendly forces, artillery was so important that they both had to put these elite troops into the fight for the spoils of war.
Soldiers just grab it, Ladislaus believes that after they return to Vienna, most of these properties will still be integrated into the economic cycle of the United Kingdom, stimulating consumption and increasing production capacity.
The Roman troops in the city were unable to cause much trouble.
Even such half-hearted troops still defeated the Roman militia who had no fighting spirit.
After appearing, a small number of Swiss Guards were immediately attacked by the Arcane Corps and Kuo-Toa, and then retreated towards the central fortress.
Throughout the night and dawn. The city echoed with the cheers of Habsburg soldiers and the screams of Roman citizens.
The limited resistance disappeared in the morning.
By noon the next day, the entire city, except for a few inner forts, was under the control or poison of the Habsburg Army.
Because they had been repelled and were greatly frightened, the soldiers doubled this negative emotion and returned it to the residents of the city.
They carried out atrocities without scruples and hysteria, taking everything from the poor and torturing the rich to get them to hand over the keys to their warehouses.
He raped his wife and daughter in front of her husband and father, and killed the whole family including the elderly and children as long as they resisted.
? Or even just for fun. Just kill the defenseless residents.
At this time, Ferdinand also defeated and captured thousands of Roman troops, including General Ferrucci. After leaving some people to take care of them and build a prison camp for himself, the emperor also entered the city of Rome.
As soon as he entered the city, he saw such a hell on earth.
The emperor is indeed a symbol of order, although this is the enemy's city and even the source of power. As soon as he entered the city, he immediately ordered: "The military law enforcement officers immediately led their troops to control the street intersections and ordered the soldiers to return to the team according to their numbers. If anyone resists and disobeys, kill them! Please show officers at all levels the honor and courage of nobility and do not kill innocent people indiscriminately." !¡±
Even if the economic situation is not good, the local troops he brought have always been paid, and the aristocratic spirit has played a role to some extent, under the command of the emperor. This force gradually restored order in various neighborhoods.
After a handful of the craziest soldiers were executed, the mass killings and rapes stopped for at least an hour.
Most of the cardinals¡¯ residences were also more comprehensively protected. Although Ladislas had already sent troops, the emperor sent his own troops again.
It¡¯s not just the cannons; Spain and the United Kingdom also have quite a fierce rivalry for influence over the cardinals.
The Prince of Orange was not a freeloader, and half of the cannons cast by the Pope still fell into his hands.
The warehouse where sulfur is stored is alsoIt was guarded by Austrian and Dutch soldiers, and the proceeds were divided equally between the two families.
But Ladislaus did not greet the emperor or count the spoils of war. He was commanding an elite force to besiege the last few strongholds in Rome.
The Swiss Guards resisted resolutely step by step on the steps of the Sistine Chapel. Purple light flashed on their bodies. Just inside the Sistine Chapel, a dozen cardinals were marching toward the Swiss under the leadership of the true elect pope. g made.
Although the attacking ground was very difficult, the United Kingdom troops continued to attack under Ladislaus's strict orders.
Approaching the Sistine Chapel again to a close enough distance, Ladislaus's soul was awakened again, and he realized that there was still a part of his soul that had not been recaptured in the last battle of the Sistine.
He gained relevant knowledge the moment he touched the cannon, but he still repeatedly heard the deep cry in his ears: "Help meHelp me"
A much clearer message did not enter his mind until he was outside the Sistine Chapel.
Under the power of Sirik. Barbarossa and Ladislaus retained the most important part, not just the knowledge of making cannons.
¡°Take it back¡ sit down¡, recover¡ pick up.¡±
The long-lost prompt appeared again, and at this moment Ladislaus realized that the mission system that accompanied him through the journey had not appeared for a long time.
Ladislaus realized that his most precious possession, the Sistine Chapel, had been forcibly taken away from him.
He never thought it was strange that the mission system disappeared. He didn't even know such a system existed.
Cyric¡¯s divine power not only deceived him, but even deceived Barbarossa.
But at such a close distance, this beacon is desperately seeking help from the souls most closely connected with it. Its voice is so irresistible to Ladislaus that it even awakens his long-standing attachment to his father and mother. Already hazy memories.
At this moment, Ladislaus dimly realized that he had to rush into the chapel to understand the meaning of his existence. (To be continued.
