What Bernard Morwes, who was full of complaints and crying, did not know, was far from himself, but all four main legions suffered, and no one was spared.

People's happiness is always similar, but each has its own misfortune - this sentence is not only completely inapplicable to the Mujahideen, it is even the complete opposite.

Because the starting location, the preparation of troops and materials, the strategic goals and the background forces behind them are completely different, the departure times of the four legions are also perfectly staggered. They don't even overlap with each other.

But no matter when and where they set off, the situation they encountered was highly similar: the first few days were calm and the fleet was heading towards the new world at full speed against the sea breeze, without encountering any abnormality throughout the journey.

Then they were killed one after another, and they crashed into the storm with a tacit understanding.

Although it is called "turbulent" because the waters are vast and full of various unimaginable disasters, in fact, the turbulent sea is not 50 meters high all day long, and calm days still occupy most of the time. Otherwise, it would be impossible to become the busiest ocean in the orderly world, with countless golden waterways that people chasing after wealth flock to.

The period from May to August every year is generally considered to be the safest time for turbulent seas, and it is also an important reason why the Jihad Legion decided to set off to the new world at this time; as long as there is no accident, there is a high probability that it will not be at all. Hit particularly bad weather.

So when there is an accident, the main force of the entire jihadist army is all in bad luck!

If you want to have 100,000 or more troops conduct cross-sea operations, and the voyage is nearly a month, and it is almost impossible to stop in the middle, even the number of ships is an extremely severe test; it has never been so large The orderly world where large-scale fleets sailed almost drained all the transport capacity, and was barely able to make up for the ships filled with hundreds of thousands of troops.

To be able to fill all personnel, weapons and logistical reserves is already the limit, and it is delusional to expect to cover everything; in order to make enough space, overloading is a normal phenomenon, and many ships also have a serious number of sailors and crew. The problem of insufficiency, ?? can only let the soldiers who boarded the ship temporarily "cameo" to be responsible for some physical work that does not require much use of the brain.

It's fine in normal times, but these "guest sailors" can't understand the orders given by the bosun at all in bad weather, and there are a lot of people who have done a disservice; many ships that might have been able to persevere have gone smoothly with their efforts. Go to feed the fish.

In addition, although the main force of the jihadist army is basically loyal to the imperial family, the sailors and crew members who sailed the ship were basically from the northern part of the empire. sustenance; expecting them to be in the same boat as the jihadist army in times of danger is pure confidant delusion.

The jihadists eager to gather the fleet could not distinguish the origin and beliefs of these sailors, or they had no choice at all-even the number of ships was not enough, how could they expect the sailors to be loyal and willing to be orderly What about the ring fight?

As a result, many ships just found out that they had encountered a storm, and immediately turned around decisively and disconnected from the fleet actively. They coaxed the jihadist army of the land ducks to say that it was to avoid, and then when the other party relaxed their vigilance, they threw the officers and soldiers into the sea to feed the fish, ripped off the flag or returned directly. .

Some of them simply turned into "armed merchant ships", stopped on the route and robbed the ships of the jihadist army to transport supplies later, and then pretended to be smuggling merchants to the three countries of the North Sea, or other small ports that were not well controlled by the church to sell these military supplies at high prices.

You don't even need to pretend to pretend. Many of the merchant ships that were forcibly confiscated have basically had the experience of smuggling contraband among countries. Otherwise, who would be willing to risk the profits of normal trade? What about the risk of dying at sea?

In the end, it was the Arthur Hereid Legion who set out first to be the most prepared, and the sailing plan was the most secure. With the shadow of being beaten up in the New World, Bernard personally asked Archduke Edland to intercede. , providing a lot of human and material support.

It was the navy of the Grand Duchy of Adelaide that transported this jihadist legion, not the "great fleet" of the emperor's relatives; many of the staff and logistical leaders within the legion were also vassals and knights under the command of Archduke Bernard; Known as the Holy War Legion, half of them are actually private soldiers assembled by the northern giants headed by the Bernard family.

Precisely because they were all their own, the entire fleet that encountered the storm was finally able to unite, and they did not suffer heavy casualties due to internal strife like other legions.

However, the heavy casualties are nothing. After all, even if more than half of them are killed, they can crush the rotten fish and rotten shrimps in the new world. Even a small number of people can ease the logistical pressure. The combat effectiveness may not drop but rise instead.

In contrast, the impact of infighting is very bad - sailors feed soldiers to fish, when pirates kill friendly troops; the Mujahideen army counterattacks and seizes ships and gets lost frequently; all kinds of news that are extremely unfavorable to the mujahideen army With the smuggled goods, the fleeing soldiers, the cargo ships of the pirates... After being exaggerated thousands of times, they spread back to the ports of the orderly world.

Although the attitudes were different at first, the public opinion at least believed that the jihadist army would prevail, and it was only a matter of time to conquer the pagans in the New World; but when the news of the shipwrecks of the various fleets came, the style of painting immediately turned into a turbulent sea. How difficult and dangerous, how wild the new world, the army that is not acclimatized will be finished sooner or later.

In particular, those who came back with great difficulty, whether it was a crew member who cut down a soldier or a jihadist who deserted, basically said that the situation was as bad as it was miserable in order to cover up their mistakes.

In their mouths, this expedition has almost become a death march: the fleet that lacks food and drink is drifting on the sea that is sometimes scorching the sky and sometimes stormy. The flamboyant knight bows his knees to you, and bows his head.

The seemingly powerful jihadist army does not need to be attacked by anyone at all, and when it arrives in the new world, it will become a ghost fleet full of corpses; out of ten thousand people, don't even think that one of them will reach the new world alive.

Such false remarks slandering the glorious and great jihadist army and questioning the rationality of the victory of jihad were naturally pursued by the local church and the Inquisition.

But they started the propaganda machine, and it was too late to refute the rumors in the newspapers and various public occasions... Even His Majesty Carlos Austeria, the King of Clovis who is the most steadfast in jihad and firmly believes that the Ring of Order will win, He also asked his archbishop in public if the jihadist army encountered difficulties.

Luther Franz, the Archbishop of Clovis, naturally refuted those ridiculous remarks for His Majesty; but a king asking such a question in public represents a very bad wind in itself; No matter how much you control the remarks on the surface, the gossip in private can no longer stop the car.

A large number of negative public opinions directly affected Clovis' confidence in the jihad - especially the public opinion "instructed" by the king - and Clovis has undertaken the most logistics and transshipment tasks in the entire jihad, which is extremely important to the logistics of the jihadist army. Impact.

Coupled with the loss of the colony, an important input of raw materials, soaring coal and steel prices have also dealt a heavy blow to the transportation industry, especially the critical railway transportation of Clovis; a large number of materials are piled up in warehouses and cannot be transported away. , In the end, even the warehouse can't be stuffed in, so I can only expose it in the open air, endure the wind and rain and finally break it...

At the same time, after the seals were torn off, a large number of "jihadist quarters" appeared scattered on the black market and were resold on the black market. Can't stop.

In the end, in order to prevent these materials from causing social unrest, the Clovis royal family had to reluctantly order a high-priced purchase, at least to prevent them from flowing into the hands of ordinary people.

For such a kind deed of kindness and kindness, dedicated only to the sake of his subjects and beliefs, the grateful Archbishop Clovis immediately reported to the Holy See and asked the Pope to condolences and awards to the royal family of Austeria.

The Holy See did not immediately reply to this, but only expressed verbal praise, and hoped that Clovis would continue to fight for the faith, and must not be deceived by worldly interests and lose the big because of the small.

But no matter how the Clovis royal family "turned the tide" at this time, by the end of May, countless rumors that were unfavorable to the jihadist army had spread throughout the world of order; The idea of ​​dying makes no difference" has become a common mainstream.

Of course, the high-level officials of all parties still support jihad on the surface, and no one dares to be labeled as a "heretic" or a "hypocrite"; despite the constant problems, the war machine forcibly cobbled together by the Church of Order is still there. Running smoothly.

It's just that when some irrelevant bearings and screws start to crack, and the fast-rotating pulley makes a piercing cry, many things are irreversible...

"So it's true that the Mujahideen suffered heavy losses in shipwrecks and many fleets fell apart?"

"At least part of it is true, and of course a lot of it is exaggerated."

"Well... it seems that you strongly advised me not to leave immediately, and the suggestion to go to the new world is correct; there are too many uncertain factors and risks in cross-sea warfare."

"You are wrong, Your Highness. In fact, maybe what you did at the beginning was the right one. I even regret it now, and I shouldn't be so cautious."

In the jihadist army barracks in Beigang, Leon Francois and Henares were holding the latest newspaper and sighing while reading; all kinds of negative news made the atmosphere so heavy that they were clearly at peace with each other. , The faces of the two who successfully protected the army from losses were not very good-looking.

At the beginning, Henares did protect the vast land army for himself. He was not fortunate to be shipwrecked like the main force of the jihadist army in the empire, but he soon realized a very serious problem: the final departure of the vast soil army was in charge of the rear , the jihadist army suffered heavy losses, and the Hantu people who could pretend to be transparent would immediately usher in the "attention" of the church.

"During a routine patrol this morning, I met a judge who was specially sent by the high command to contact us, and he brought it up." Henares said solemnly:

"He told me that the Church of Order will definitely learn from the lessons of the empire, and carefully prepare a fleet for the transportation of our Han soil legion, so as to avoid the same encounter; I hope that the knights who are willing to fight for their faith in Han soil will be able to fight against heretics and heretics. in the lands of the world to obtain the glory worthy of his status."

Henares couldn't help shaking his head... What is the glory that matches one's identity, this is already clearly telling Han Tu, the courage to pretend that a transparent person hides behind to be lazy and save his strength, in the eyes of the church, that is an expression of impiety.

And what will happen to Hantu, who has not yet recovered from the war, if he is considered impious by the church in this holy war?

Rather than stay alone and be targeted by the church, it is better to set out with the army of the empire; the dead are dead, and they will not be too dazzling to be taken as a "typical".

"I'm more worried about the time issue." Lai Ang's expression was also quite heavy:

"It's almost June now, and the best time for sailing in the turbulent sea is only August. The later you send troops, the higher the risk of shipwreck; even the empire that sets off at a good time will be hit by such a terrifying storm, we need I am afraid the situation will be more ominous.”

"This is just a departure. As far as I know, the high command has not yet given a plan for when it will end and when it will return; unless the war can be ended within a month, it is necessary to prepare for the winter... But no matter what The high command is still the Clovis in charge of logistics, and it seems that this has not been considered until now."

"And can we really defeat the pagans of the New World in a month's time?"

"That's probably not realistic."

Looking at the worried little Lai Ang, Henares approached as if he had made up his mind: "Even if the enemy is really as weak as the imperial people describe it, how can the desolate and barbaric new world be occupied so easily? conquered?"

"Therefore ~www.readwn.com~ we may have to do something else, Your Highness."

"...other plans?"

Lai Ang raised his eyebrows with a confused expression: "This is a holy war that has exhausted the entire world of order, what else can you plan?"

"The plan to preserve the essence of the vast land and avoid external interference." Henares lowered his voice, his expression became more and more gloomy: "Sometimes between family and faith, we may not be able to achieve both; it is necessary to At that time, in order to protect the family and the object of allegiance, it is necessary to do something that goes against the faith.”

"For example, before coming here, a member of the Thirteenth Council of the Insel Elf who was not destroyed by the ruling knights, once secretly found your father and me; that guy introduced a person to us and proposed some very unusual …”

"...Bold idea!"
