total war rise of empire

Chapter 90 Expedition (The first update asks for subscription)

[Ding~ I found that the crisis of extinction is approaching, and now release the only crisis main task!

Task content: Stop the Crusades launched by the Church of the Lord of Glory from conquest of the Greek Peninsula, and completely defeat all the Crusaders who landed!
Mission reward: 1 refugees will be presented as gifts, and they will come to the main city of His Excellency the Governor one after another within a month, and forcibly lower the restrictions on upgrading the main city to level [-]!
Remarks: This reward is a temporary change made by the total war system in the face of life and death, and it will provide the greatest help to the governor. Once such rewards appear, it means that the situation is serious enough to threaten the existence of the governor and the main city. Please be sure to Pay attention to!

Mission failure: After the fall of the main city, everything will be annihilated in the turbulence of time and space! 】

Lei Zihao looked at the big red font that appeared in his mind, with a bewildered expression on his face, he was still in the rhythm of orderly development and conquest a moment ago, God knows why such a huge crisis fell out of thin air!

Since the main city was upgraded to level 3, Lei Zihao has not felt oppressed by the sense of crisis for a long time!
"Crusaders? The Church of the Lord of Glory? I haven't offended the Pope himself, old man, why did he suddenly fall in love with the barren Greek peninsula?"

Afterwards, Lei Zihao remembered the night elf empire that had always cherished its wings, and suddenly showed great power, completely annihilating the half-orc army in the Balkan region regardless of casualties!
Just half a year after the Orc Legion was destroyed, the Church of the Lord of Glory, the spiritual leader of the human world, led the Crusaders to land on the Greek peninsula!

Lei Zihao, who has been in this backward world for more than a year, is well aware of how slow the pace of war is in this era!

The main world of mankind is not an efficient centralized system, but a disorganized noble enfeoffment system, with endless civil wars, new nobles are born every year, and old nobles disappear!
Even if the authority of the Church of the Lord of Glory in the main world of mankind is unshakable, all the noble lords will follow the lead, and it is still a big project to gather the army of the noble lords who are scattered in the sand!
This is under the condition that all noble lords dare not disobey the Pope, obediently obediently contribute to others!

Even if calculated at the fastest speed of the human lord, it will take at least half a year to gather troops, prepare food and supplies, and cross the blue sea to the Greek peninsula!
In other words, long before the Orc Legion was destroyed, the Pope of the Church of the Lord of Glory had already started preparing for the flattening of the Greek Peninsula!
According to Murphy's Law, if one thinks about the worst in everything, the night elf empire's reckless destruction of the half-orc legion in the Balkans and blocking the exit of the Greek peninsula seems to be a distant response to the church's crusade...

This……

"Didn't I just kill hundreds of thousands of Pylos people, and then engage in slavery? Why do I feel like I have become a public enemy of the plane... This is a posture that wants to kill me!"

Lei Zihao thought depressedly.

However, a few days after the release of the main task of the total war system, Lei Zihao got the news that the stronghold established in Argos had been destroyed!

According to the dictation of Qingqi who escaped back, the soldiers who destroyed the stronghold held a flag with a cross on it!
If Lei Zihao was surprised by the previous main quest prompt, the destruction of the Argos stronghold is equivalent to putting a knife on Lei Zihao's neck!

After getting this military information, Lei Zihao immediately got up from the tender village he had just created, and devoted himself to the preparations for a new war!
As a dictatorial tyrant in the slave system, Lei Zihao also has an ambition to be a hegemon who loves to rob and kill, so he is naturally in a state of arms all the time!
Whether it is the Siris Revival Army stationed in Megara City or the troops directly under Lei Zihao, they have always been fully armed after their return. The direct troops are to wipe out the remnants of the half-orc vassal groups and take care of tens of thousands of Pylos slaves!
Therefore, when Lei Zihao really wants to fight, he can easily gather an army!

However, Lei Zihao suddenly discovered a happy trouble - the slaves of Pyrrhus are too cute!

Now, in Longhan City, there is a team of thousands of heavy armored spearmen, a team of thousands of archers, a team of thousands of cavalry, a team of thousands of elite Wei soldiers, and a team of thousands of elite soldiers. Spartan general guards, and even a standard battalion of 500 Scarlet Crusaders!

Together, the total strength can reach a full 5500 people, so naturally there is no need to care about the riots of tens of thousands of Pylos slaves.

However, if Lei Zihao wanted to pull these troops out, even if he only pulled them to Megara City, the slaves here in Longhan City would immediately turn from cheap coolies into powder kegs that ignited at once!

Lei Zihao had no choice but to escort most of the slaves of Pylos to the city of Megara with the army!
Even those Pylos female slaves were mostly sent to Megara City. The biggest side effect of this approach is that the construction of Long Han City, which was originally in full swing, has seen a sharp drop in the labor force for collecting resources, resulting in a significant delay in the construction period!
Lei Zihao only left one or two thousands of slaves to maintain the basic operation of the iron mine. If there were more people, it would be difficult for the militia and security team in Longhan City to suppress it!
Under Lei Zihao's rule, after the field regular army went out, the militiamen in the city who had undergone simple military training during the slack period would take up short-term security work, all of which would be handed over to Zhao Guangxian, the administrative director, Chen Xiaowen, the judicial director, and the tax officer. Wang Er, the junior cabinet team headed by the instructor of the security team Antonio.

They were also the person in charge during Lei Zihao's absence in Longhan City!

Of course, although these slaves cannot provide labor for the development of Longhan City for the time being, they can be used as cannon fodder for civilians in the battle to defend the city!
The number of Lei Zihao's direct troops plus the Siris Revival Army has exceeded [-], which is much better than the initial plight of only a few hundred soldiers!
This is what Lei Zihao relied on to resist the crusaders of the Church!

As a military fortress, Megara City had been repaired a few months ago. Facing the mighty church crusaders, Lei Zihao would naturally not lead his troops out of the city to fight in the field like he beat up the city-state of Pylos in the Bronze Age!
The big cities on the road between Pylos City and Megara City have all been burned to the ground by Lei Zihao. Unexpectedly, it has now become the root cause of the Crusaders having to move forward...

Without a large city with a dense population and sufficient supplies for supplies, the army naturally cannot stay in one place for too long, and the small carts behind to deliver food and grass cannot supply [-] troops!
　Today is April Fool's Day, everyone seize this special festival to express your love, I can only help you here...
