With a sneer, Ash directly dispatched 30,000 troops to take over Jessica’s defense line, cutting off the support line of the Ten-Nation Coalition. At the same time, he sent Navitt to lead 50,000 troops to join Amos and Jessica who were attacking on the front line, each leading 40,000 troops, and completely sounded the clarion call for attack.
The original army of 200,000, now 120,000 troops marched south!
[In September 1784, the Holy Legion marched south.]
[In October, Amos broke through the border of the Principality of Cospaya, killed 10 enemy soldiers, and captured two cities in succession.]
[Jessica broke through the border of the Frankish Duchy, killed 20,000 enemy troops, and captured two cities.]
[That Vitt broke through the border of the Principality of Bosilan, killed 10,000 enemy soldiers, and captured a city. ]
【Ash issued an order to massacre the city.】
[In November, Amos defeated Cospar’s army again.]
【King Cospar asks for peace talks.】
【拒绝。】
[In November, the coalition forces of ten countries launched an attack on the border of Dekalia, trying to break through the blockade, but were repelled by the army led by Ash.]
[In November, Jessica defeated the Frankland army and killed 11 enemy soldiers.]
【King Frankland requests peace talks.】
[In December, Amos led his army to capture the royal city of Cospar and killed all the royal family members.]
[‘Soldiers of the Holy Legion, fight! For the glory of Archduke Ash! ‘——Amos de Yarivar]
The princesses were stunned as they watched battle information pop up on the interface.
Is this still a battle to defend territory???
[‘Follow the Way of Heaven.’]
On the interface, Ash, who was depicted with the world situation, picked up a chess piece and dropped it. The world was shocked when the chess piece fell!
[The Principality of Cospar is under your jurisdiction. ]
【The Duchy of Frank is under your jurisdiction.】
[The Principality of Bosilan is under your jurisdiction. 】

Break the city!
Break the city!
Break the city!
On the strategic map, no one can stop the Holy Legion’s armor wherever it goes!
No one expected that the purpose of Ash’s increasing military strength after more than a year of silence was not to protect the territory, but to expand.
At this moment, the coalition forces of the ten countries in the territory were all confused. Didn’t we agree to fight to the death? What do you mean by pulling the main force outside?
Especially the soldiers from the four countries of Frank, Persia and Cospar. They were still fighting outside, and when they looked back, they found that their country was gone. Their feelings must have been very complicated.
They wanted to go to support, but the defense line was guarded by Ash himself, and the coalition forces of ten countries could not break through.
[Felice: Wow! Wow! These three commanders are so strong! ]
[Weine: It was really amazing, especially the one from the Yariwal family. They conquered the city so quickly. Cospar is considered a very powerful principality in the southern continent, but they couldn’t even reach it in half a year… My prince is really amazing.]
[Irelia: Amos is indeed powerful, but most of Cospar’s troops are here, and the destruction of the city is also expected. What surprised me more was Ash’s decision. Attack the city and then rescue it. The Ten-Nation Alliance was in disarray and collapsed without a fight… And His Highness Vene, Ash is my prince. ]
[Vene: Your Highness Irelia, I was here first! ]
[Anonymous: I think what you said is wrong. Ash is the husband of Princess Asuna, and Princess Asuna already has a child. It’s useless for you to argue about it.]
【Weinei: …】
[Irelia: …]
Neither of them spoke.
Irelia was a little annoyed. Who is this guy? What good will it do you to stand on Yasuna’s side?
That being said, her sister, Princess Asuna, is indeed ahead of her and Vene.
Fortunately, her simulation progress is still far ahead, and with the help of Ash, there is great hope of building an empire.
Here, after the Holy Army defeated the three kingdoms in succession, it stopped its attack.
The three armies each guarded a country and rested to reorganize.
In fact, they could have continued fighting, but Ash knew that too much is as bad as too little. He still had too few troops, and it was already very good that each of the 40,000 troops could fight until now. If he hadn’t blocked the main forces of the three kingdoms, it would have been much more difficult to break the city.
iu04⒏]〖死㈡〔○九∷□0儛中转=群≈〈:}@ “It’s easy to take it down, but hard to manage it.”
The next stage was the most difficult one. The three armies broke through the city one after another, and they defeated the armies of the principality. However, there were still many soldiers in the hands of the nobles from all over the country, as well as the people of various countries. These people would not easily surrender to an invader.
After some thought, Ash sent some civil servants with good talent and political ability over there. His main task for them was to subdue the nobles of those countries and manage the country through the power of these nobles. In this way, he would not have to face the resistance of the unruly people.
Anyway, the core idea is to develop colonies and plunder more resources.
In the early stages, it is inevitable to suppress by force. If the local nobles disagree, they will be beaten or killed. There will always be people who surrender, and once there is one, there will be two. Once the slave mentality is established, the subsequent management will be left to nature.
Ash is quite skilled at this set of operations.
[In December 1784, the three duchies of Frank, Bosilan, and Cospar were destroyed, and their territories were incorporated into the jurisdiction of Ashu. ]
[In the same month, the Holy See made a public comment on the chaotic situation in the southern continent. Cardinal Carls Bird Greymont emphasized that “life is the root of all things. The Mother God has given all living things the right to live. People should first learn to respect life.”]
[Affected by the Holy See, magic news agencies in various countries have reported on the chaos in the southern continent. ]
【Anti-war sentiment is rising in various countries, and they accuse Ash Engel of brutal invasion.】
[The stability of the Purple Spirit Kingdom has declined, public security has declined, and the probability of rebellion by religious belief forces has increased significantly. ]
[There are riots in Frank, Bosilan, and Cospar. Please handle them promptly. 】
“Damn Holy Court.”
Ash glanced at the information and was not surprised by the actions of the Holy See. He thought that they were behind the chaos in the southern continent. They probably wanted to restrict the development of the Purple Spirit Kingdom at the beginning, but they ended up losing more than they gained. They were useless in the Ten-Nation Alliance and now they have lost three kingdoms.
Zi Shengting will certainly not sit still. With the addition of the territories of the three kingdoms, the Zi Ling Kingdom is now truly qualified to establish an empire.
Seeing a riot breaking out on the territory he had just acquired, Ash didn’t think twice and directly ordered the three remaining troops to attack.
Bloody suppression!
You’re the only one saying we should respect life?
I respect it very much. I want to respect life. Why don’t you give me this opportunity?
It’s not my fault, it’s your problem, why do you have to make a scene! You have to riot!
“Do I need to develop some religious beliefs?”
Ash stroked his chin.
Originally, he had no plans to develop any faith. After all, the Rhea continent was a world influenced by gods, and the influence of theocracy was too great. To establish faith, one must involve gods.
But Ash is not interested in God.
If anything, you guys, he likes Khorne.
“Do we want to establish the Cult of Khorne? The problem is that there is no such god in the history of Rhea.”
Wait, history is also man-made. Faith, after all, is just one of the means people use to gain benefits, a convenient and effective tool. As long as it can achieve the goal, it doesn’t have to exist in reality.
It’s just that Khorne sounds a bit unorthodox. Others spread the message of the Mother Goddess of Life, who is “merciful” and “loving”, but he is terrorism and cruel, killing, killing, killing, killing, and killing. Unless the killing causes rivers of blood to flow, everyone is a good citizen.
However, humans have seven deadly sins, and desire is the force that drives people to act. Only by liberating one’s nature can one see the true self, face the true self, obtain the true self, and ultimately understand the meaning of life. So what if a few people die in this process?
Humanity advances, conquers, and evolves.
The world is too chaotic; painting it all the same color would be more conducive to progress.
Therefore, the war of Khorne is the path to a higher civilization!
[In January 1785, after much thought, you realized the path you were taking and decided to establish a religious belief.]
【Special opportunity triggered.】
[Based on the current character attributes, unlock the path of faith – Khorne. ]
[Unlock the exclusive entry – ‘Khorne Believers’. You can gain followers of Khorne by spreading your faith. ]
[Khorne Cultists (Title Effect): Willpower and ambition are enhanced. When in combat, morale will not decrease. All attributes are enhanced by 5%. ]
Ah this.
Seeing the interface information, Ash was surprised.
“Really Khorne?”
After thinking about it, it didn’t seem surprising. If he were to take the path of faith in his situation, it would be either war or Khorne, and the latter was obviously more powerful than the strong… well, it was in line with his wishes.
But Ash doesn’t like the crazy killing that has lost his mind. He is on the right path, developing civilization, conquering enemies and the fear of the unknown. As a human being, this kind of thinking is reasonable, right?
However, considering the current situation, it is indeed necessary to develop faith to fight against the Holy See, and the effect blessing of Khorne followers should be affected by the game mechanism and become an attribute improvement in a positive direction.
Then there is nothing for Ash to hesitate about.
Of course, before that he had to resolve the chaos in the territory.
[In February 1785, the Ten-Nation Alliance launched another attack, but failed.]
[At the end of February, the Ten-Nation Alliance ran out of supplies. Some people advocated surrender, while others advocated continuing to fight.]
[In early March, chaos broke out within the coalition of ten nations. The Principality of Ryan and the Principality of Surang secretly sent envoys to express their willingness to compensate for the invasion and to cooperate with the Holy Legion to completely wipe out the Frankish, Persian and Cospar armies. Do you accept this? ]
The coalition collapsed.
The corner of Yaxiu’s mouth raised, this scene was not surprising. He had previously destroyed a large amount of supplies of the Ten-Nation Coalition, and he had reached his limit of being able to hold on until now. He was afraid that those guys in the coalition were now tightening their belts and gnawing on tree bark.
I can’t win the fight, and I can’t go back, so I can only sell out my teammates to find a way to survive.
[Philis: I didn’t expect that the Ten-Nation Alliance’s troubles would be solved like this. Cutting off supply lines during a war is easier said than done, but with the military strength in Ash’s territory, it shouldn’t be difficult to destroy them.]
[Weinei: Stupid, there are always casualties in war. Now we don’t need to waste any soldiers. My prince is very resourceful.]
From their perspective, they could not see the content of Ash’s simulation, but from Irelia’s perspective, they had already learned that the Ten-Nation Alliance had experienced civil unrest. As long as the blockade continued for a period of time, this so-called alliance would inevitably collapse.
【Ash agreed to the internal surrender of the Ten-Nation Alliance.】
A message popped up on Irelia’s simulation interface.
“You surrendered?”
She nodded slightly, internal chaos, surrender, and then saw the information below. She was not surprised by the actions of Ryan, Sulange and other principalities.
Originally everyone formed an alliance for the sake of interests, but now it has come to a critical moment of life and death. Everyone flees for their own lives when disaster strikes. The spirit of “a friend’s death is the fate of the poor” can be seen everywhere in the Rhea continent.
Besides, your three countries have all been destroyed anyway, and pursuing the king’s path and dedicating your life to it is the quality that a loyal warrior should possess.
“It seems that Ash wants to develop steadily from now on.”
After seeing that Ash agreed to internal surrender, Irelia immediately ordered the kingdom’s army on the Havetandin Line of Defense to prepare for battle. At present, the number of the coalition forces of Frank, Persil and Cospar was less than 40,000. As long as they were completely eliminated, the threat from the three countries would no longer exist.
But what happened next surprised Irelia.
[In mid-March 1785, the Ten-Nation Alliance fell apart, and the surrendered faction cooperated with the Holy Legion to carry out an extermination plan against the armies of the three Frankish countries, killing 3 soldiers of the three-nation alliance in the Salda Mountains.]
[Afterwards, Ash promised to open the defense line and allow the remaining troops of the Ten-Nation Alliance to return.]
On the strategic map, countless soldiers occupied the plains of the Sardar Mountains. The grass was littered with corpses of the Three Kingdoms’ coalition forces. The blood soaked the earth. The sky was dark, filled with a sense of déjà vu of the smoke of war.
After cleaning up the battlefield, the remaining troops of the Ten-Nation Alliance went into the junction of a canyon and a forest inside the mountains to rest.
Moon stars are rare.
At night, the east wind picked up and a huge fire started in the forest. The flames rose into the sky and, with the help of the wind, instantly swept to the camp of the Ten-Nation Alliance.
Irelia was stunned and quickly looked at the battle information.
【Ash uses fire attack on the coalition forces of ten nations.】
