My British Empire

Chapter 252: Decisive Battle

Over the past three days, the Catholic rebels have used various methods to rescue two of the ten food transport teams. The food can only allow the rebels to survive for one more day, which is better than nothing!

In this regard, the rebel leader Virio and Priest Tony expressed helplessness, feeling more and more aggrieved.

The government army took advantage of its strong combat effectiveness to entangle the rebel army in the barracks, forcing them to maintain a defensive posture, and their morale became lower and lower.

In this regard, the two of them decided to make a desperate decision to defeat the government army in one go, so that the people of England could once again be bathed in the glory of the Lord.

All the soldiers gathered together and stood quietly on the school grounds. They raised their heads and looked at Priest Tony on the high platform with a fanatical expression and eyes full of worship and admiration.

Although Tony's face was a little immature, but his footsteps were firm. He stepped up to the high platform step by step, his eyes were dignified, and his whole person seemed to be covered with a kind of sacred brilliance, which made everyone in the audience even more excited and fiery.

Even, there are people below who are shouting the word Santony loudly to express their admiration for the priest Tony.

And it seemed that under the influence of other people, the shouts of Santoni became louder and louder, and finally everyone shouted in unison, hysterical.

On the other hand, Virio did not choose to stop it. He understood that the more fanatical the soldiers, the greater the possibility of victory in this war.

Adding a holy word to a person's name is the exclusive vocabulary of Catholic saints, and it is difficult for even the Pope to obtain it, let alone Priest Tony.

Canonization is a technical term in Catholicism, which is an extremely glorious and solemn matter, and the status of a saint is even higher than that of the Pope.

Canonization is also called canonization, that is, after certain investigation and verification procedures, the Pope of Rome issued a decree announcing that the names of one or some deceased Catholics be included in the roster of saints. That is, canonize them as saints, and require Catholics to regard them as models, to worship and follow.

Just like our model workers, the saint is a model Catholic, and the Pope asks Catholics to emulate him.

And every believer who is included in the roster, not only must his portrait be enshrined in the church, but also believers should kneel in front of his portrait and chant prayers, begging him to pass on his request to God.

Moreover, every Protestant can also take his name as his baptism (holy name) when he is baptized.

Of course, the most glorious thing is that their names will have a prefix of the word Holy, which is used to show the difference between them and ordinary people.

Saints are divided into two forms: refined saints and martyred saints, but priest Tony is currently not one of them, and it is illegal to call them saints.

At this time, no brainless person dared to say that, and instead joined the cheering team.

He pressed his hands, his voice gradually subsided, he cleared his throat, looked at the densely packed heads, and said without hesitation.

Gentlemen, this time we are gathered here, not for ourselves, but for England, so that the omnipotent and omniscient God may let the glory of the Lord shine again to England, so that we, the lambs of the Lord, may bathe in the In the grace of the Lord!

Let us unite together and eradicate those heretics who defile the glory of the Lord, lambs of the Lord, let us act!

Our Lord will bless us, long live! Long live!

Priest Tony blushed, raised his right hand, and shouted loudly.

At this time, the people nearby also shouted loudly, and the people behind who heard nothing also followed without hesitation.

Soon, 30,000 people shouted in unison, and the voice pierced into the sky, and the birds flying in the sky hurriedly flapped their wings to support the sound waves.

And what is more shocking to these is the government army in the confrontation. The government army of 15,000 people was shocked by the unison shouting and palpitations.

In response, Knight Alexander's handsome face froze for a moment. He knew that the time for the decisive battle had arrived.

Order to go down, let the kitchen prepare enough bread and meat for all the soldiers, and wait for the guys to return in victory!

A servant did not dare to neglect Knight Alexander's order, and hurriedly ran to convey it in response.

On the other side, militia captains from other counties stood respectfully aside, their eyebrows lowered, not daring to have any meaning to his order.

Some elderly people present could still recall in their minds the heroic achievements of this handsome knight on the French battlefield.

But this time, the knights of Alexander gathered all the militiamen in armor together, including the guards, the total number reached five thousand, and they also placed the tall ones at the front as shields.

The cavalry were required to wander around, find the rebels' weaknesses, and launch a fatal blow.

The two armies slowly walked out of their respective camps and came to the battlefield of the decisive battle.

Virio, as the coach, stayed at the forefront of the army according to the usual practice at this time, riding a horse with a calm expression, and commanding the fight under the protection of a kind of attendant.

However, the Alexander knight was not like this. Instead, he stayed in the army wearing heavy armor and looked at the gushing rebels with a calm expression.

Virio, who was rushing forward, was getting closer and closer to the government army, and his curiosity became more and more intense, but how could the horse that rushed out be able to return easily?

Just when the rebels approached the government army three hundred feet (about one hundred meters), a burst of gunpowder smoke suddenly appeared in the government army, and the air was filled with the smell of sulfur.

When Virio was surprised, he rushed to the front row and fell down a dozen at once. With the help of the offensive, the rebels continued to charge forward. After two rounds of shooting, there were only more than 200 cavalry. But this time more than 80 people fell.

In other words, in front of the government army, half of the cavalry team was dead.

The rebels were stunned by the sudden casualties and noise, and stopped. Seeing this, Virio could only shout loudly, which made the rebels move on.

The musketeers quickly retreated to the rear, and the infantry in armor came to the forefront.

The swarming rebels rushed forward, like two stones colliding with each other, sparking violent sparks, blood and corpses became the main theme at once.

The armored infantry struggled to stop the rebels who wanted to collide with the rear, and the longbowmen in the rear and the longbowmen of the rebels on the opposite side fired at each other, canceling each other out.

From time to time, the pikemen stuck out their gun heads from the gaps, giving the shocking rebels a chill.

However, the impact of the rebels was getting bigger and bigger, and the armored infantry in the front row gradually became unable to hold on, and the entire army might be dispersed.
