Chapter 1244 Holdris is a paper tiger!
Chapter 1244 Holdris is a paper tiger!
After learning of the atrocities committed by the Papal Army, these elite soldiers of the Papal Army remained silent.
For the first time, they felt that the yellow military uniforms on their bodies were so ugly.
"You are a bunch of beasts!"
An old man on horseback blocked the road.
Bradley, who was leading the charge, slammed on the brakes.
The old man was riding an old horse with lost hair, holding a rusty paladin's cross sword.
He was wearing the armor of a general of the Crusades and had a diamond medal of the Crusades around his neck.
The Bradley driver was so scared that he burst into tears.
As citizens of the Papal States, they naturally knew how terrifying the old man's achievements were.
The Diamond Medal of the Crusade is the highest honor of the Papal States.
Throughout history, a Diamond Medal recipient may only appear once every ten years.
The former Marshal Fabrice never received the Diamond Medal, and his highest honor was only a Gold Medal.
Thirty years ago, this old man led his army to fight against Alexander's western expedition army.
However, since he lost all his power in that war, the Pope at that time generously awarded the old man the Diamond Medal in order to stabilize the morale of the army.
To highlight his achievements.
The old man retired after receiving the medal because he was a civilian.
Being able to become a marshal was already a miracle. If they still refused to leave at this time, then their whole family would most likely be killed...
After all, it is almost impossible for him to hold on to that position now that he has lost his abilities.
The old man returned to the countryside with his wife and children and worked as a farmer honestly.
The nobles did not continue to pursue and kill him. After all, he was a general who was loyal to his country, and there was no need for them to kill him.
The old man has been staying quietly in the village.
Even when the Papal State and Dayan fought, he did not stand up.
Because he believed that as long as the emperor trusted Fabrice and appointed Fabrice to fight against Dayan, he would be able to defeat Dayan just as he had defeated Alexander.
But the thing is, the Pope did trust Fabrice at first.
Later, with the fierce attack of the Wehrmacht, the Papal States suffered a series of defeats, so that the emperor later chose to replace Fabrice.
Appoint a new person as the front line commander.
As a result, this substitution caused the front line to explode.
The old man was not too angry when he learned the news of the defeat of the Papal States.
He is now over 70 years old. Since he has lost all his strength, he can live to 80 at most. It would be a blessing if he can live to 90.
So now he can only say that he will live one day at a time.
There aren't that many requirements anymore.
And now he not only has grandchildren, but even great-grandchildren have been born.
His only wish now is to see his great-grandson grow up.
But after the scandal within the Papal States broke out, the old general could no longer sit still.
The defeat of a country is at most due to the stupidity of its ruling class.
But the problem is that slaughtering the lower classes of people is no longer just the behavior of ordinary beasts.
There must be problems in this country, and they are not small.
The fact that this situation could occur is not only due to the stupidity of the ruling class, but also due to its autocracy.
They treat the country as their toy and trample on everyone's life.
As an old general, he naturally loves this country deeply.
When the country was defeated, the old general just shed tears.
But when the workers of this country were wantonly slaughtered by the ruling class, he finally chose to stand up.
Looking at the old general in front of them, the Papal Army chose to stop.
Upon learning that the old general was blocking the road, a brigade commander got out of his military vehicle and walked up to the old general in person.
I bowed deeply to the old general.
He invited the old general to one side and started communicating with him in a friendly manner.
"Old hero, we have been ordered to encircle and suppress the enemy. Could you please move aside?"
The brigade commander said respectfully that the old general knew that one should not hit someone who smiled at him, but he still did not want to give these beasts any face.
"I heard that you are going to encircle and suppress the Crusaders?"
The old general's first words silenced the brigade commander.
The old general really talks about things that are not related to the topic.
He clearly knew that he was going to encircle and suppress Frank, but he ended up calling Frank a crusader...
Seeing the brigade commander fall silent, the old general couldn't help but slam the table.
"Am I wrong? You are using weapons made by your own people to attack your own people. What kind of ability is that?
The Crusaders are the Goddess' army, are you rebelling?"
The old general continued to speak, while the brigade commander began to defend himself.
“That’s not the case. These Crusaders are different from the Crusaders you mentioned. These Crusaders were bewitched by Frank and resolutely chose to fight against the emperor.
They are rebels, enemies of the Empire!"
Listening to the brigade commander's words, the old general sneered with disdain.
"You call him a traitor? But the problem is that the Saint has already come to the world, so who is the traitor?
What did the traitor you mentioned do for the people? And what did the emperor you mentioned do for the people? "
The old general's words left the brigade commander speechless.
The brigade commander stammered and tried to explain himself, but found himself unable to respond to the old general.
Because what Holdress did was truly a beast...
In the end, they did not take action against the old general, but instead called Holdress to seek his advice.
But the old general was ready to die, because when he learned that the brigade commander asked Holdress for help, he already knew that Holdress would get rid of him...
On the other hand, Frank also learned that Holdress had turned the table and sent elite troops to encircle and suppress him.
But he was not afraid.
On the contrary, he began to calm the restless crowd.
“The reason Holderis was so anxious to send out the troops is because they are afraid!
They are afraid that a single spark may start a prairie fire, because all reactionaries are paper tigers!
The powerful army never bullies the weak, and everything they do to the workers will eventually come back to them!"
