Chapter 697: The Western Lords Assemble! (Two in One)(1/2)

In Linz City, the army of Western lords were gathering rapidly, and German princes responded to Hohenzollern's call to participate in the sacred war.

These German princes, with more troops, had tens of thousands of people, while those with less troops were only a few hundred.

Hohenzollern was already the largest prince of the Holy Roman Empire.

The Grand Duchy of Austria was the territory of the Holy Roman Empire. Attila's attack on Vienna was actually declaring war on the entire Holy Roman Empire.

The German princes were also brave and good at fighting. They gathered a large number of troops to face Attila's army.

Some German princes did not have time to participate in the last war. On the way to march, they chose to participate in this war, and Hohenzollern was their lord.

The Western ruling system is somewhat different. There can be small lords under the big lords. The principle pursued is "My vassal of vassals, not my vassals."

It is very difficult for Western lords to change this feudal system and centralize power.

The current German region still implements the feudal system of the Holy Roman Empire. However, Hohenzollern's prestige is enough to command the princes of the German region. These princes also realized that only by joining hands can the Holy Roman Empire survive in the fiercely competitive Western continent.

"The Holy Roman Empire is expected to gather 400,000 troops."

Hohenzollern counted the forces sent by various German princes, and the total number of troops reached 400,000.

The Kingdom of Macedonia was no longer the main force to compete with Attila, and the Holy Roman Empire began to take the stage on the Western Continent.

"Article of Cologne, Archbishop of Mainz, Archbishop of Trier, Duke of Saxony, Elector of Paladin, and King of New Bohemia are here!"

If Hohenzollern, who served as the vassal prince of Brandenburg, was included, the seven elected emperors of the Holy Roman Empire came to the public!

Because Alexander was injured and his main force returned to defend the Macedonian Kingdom, he could no longer sit in the main position. Currently, he has a greater say in the Western coalition. The seven electoral emperors of the Holy Roman Empire and the three giants of the Roman Republic!

These ten great lords, together with Alexander and eleven people, decided the survival of Vienna and even the Western continent.

"Vienna once again requested reinforcements, and Attila was gathering forces to march towards Linz. He wanted to capture Linz and enter the German region before our forces could gather. The Kingdom of Hungary and the Grand Duchy of Austria had been defeated. His next goal should be our Holy Roman Empire."

Hohenzollern crossed his hands and placed them under his jaw, looking around at the lords present.

Constantine pondered: "My Genoese Legion, Carthage Legion, has arrived. They will let Attila learn a lesson. There are two legions, I don't know if I have time to join the war..."

"Genoa Legion? Could it be the Crossbow Legion?"

Hohenzollern's eyes lit up.

The Genoa Province of the Roman Republic is rich in the highest quality crossbows in the Western continent. Even the German princes and other Western lords have to buy crossbows from the Genoa Province.

Genoa's crossbow legion is no less than the Roman legion.

"In order to defeat Attila, there can be no reservation anymore."

Constantine took a look at the world rankings. The competition among the lords was extremely fierce. In the second year's national war, the war was still breaking out. The lords of the Han Empire were sweeping away the remaining tribes in various places and still getting some points.

Caesar and Pompeii, the two Roman giants, all looked at Constantine, who was the player lord.

As a player, Constantine has many advantages and it is easier for players to deal with each other. However, Constantine has inadvertently controlled Genoa and North Africa and became the strongest among the three giants of Rome.

Caesar and Pompey looked at each other thoughtfully, and saw caution in each other's eyes. Perhaps Constantine's power continued to expand, and the two giants might have to join forces to compete with Constantine.

Moreover, according to Constantine, he seemed to have two special legions.

Such strength has already posed a threat to Caesar and Pompei, and can even compete with Caesar and Pompei.

The Carthage city-state in North Africa was an existence that could compete with the Roman Republic.

There are also many famous generals in the Carthage city-state, the most famous of which is Hannibal who almost broke through Rome.

Although the three giants of Rome are maintaining a delicate balance, the three of them chose to join forces in this battle to preserve Rome's honor.

"We, the seven electoral emperors of the Holy Roman Empire, jointly sent troops. I hope you can stop your efforts to attack Attila. Once Attila becomes bigger, we will no longer be able to compete with it."

Hohenzollern was very satisfied with Constantine's long-time treasured Genoese crossbow legion, the Carthage legion with war elephants and cavalry. He hoped that Alexander, Caesar, and Pompey could also fight to the best of their ability, rather than fighting alone by the seven electoral emperors of the Holy Roman Empire.

"This time, the Venetians who serve me will also send out legions."

Caesar also had his own sphere of influence, and the Venetian fleet and Venetian heavy infantry served.

"I've transferred the Sicilian Legion."

Pompei also took out his own troops.

Hohenzollern looked at Alexander again: "Alexander, can the Kingdom of Macedonia block the offensive of the Ottoman Empire? I don't want the Macedonian Legion to suddenly return to the Kingdom of Macedonia to defend the Ottoman Empire when fighting with Attila's army."

"The Sipachi Cavalry and the Jenicheri Legion of the Ottoman Empire were indeed brave and good at fighting. Their reputation spread throughout Asia Minor, but the Greek city-states had the Spartans and the Athenians, the Greek navy led by the Athenians, and the infantry led by the Spartans were enough to prevent the Ottoman Empire from capturing Greece in a short time."

Alexander was indifferent to the offensive of the Ottoman Empire and chose to believe in the once prosperous Greek city-state.

When Alexander conquered many Greek city-states, it took a lot of effort.

Only Alexander himself knew the terror of the Spartan warriors. Alexander needed to personally lead his partner cavalry to attack the camp behind the Spartans, causing the Spartans to fall into chaos, and then he took down the Spartan city-state.

It is precisely because they know that they are good at fighting that as long as the Athenians who are a little smart and command the warlike Spartans, the Spartans will not be so easily trapped.

The Spartans also have their own shortcomings, that is, they are not very smart and easy to adapt.

Alexander's arms were wrapped in gauze, and his injuries were proved by his war with Attila.

Not many Western lords dared to attack Attila's cavalry head-on, and Alexander could still exchange injuries with Attila in a disadvantaged situation.

Hohenzollern did not doubt Alexander's determination to fight Attila. After all, among all Western lords, Alexander was a warlike person. It was Alexander who actively promoted the alliance to attack Attila.

Mainly, Alexander's Macedonian Kingdom's troops were restrained by the Ottoman Empire, which made Alexander unable to coordinate the overall situation and simply handed over the command to Hohenzollern.

The population of the Holy Roman Empire was only much larger than that of the Kingdom of Macedonia.

The Holy Roman Empire had many plains, while the Macedonian Kingdom was mainly mountains.

"The Xia King of the Han Empire in the East and Yekaterina of the Tsarist Empire joined our coalition, but he has not sent troops for a long time."

Alexander had an opinion on the combination of Chu Tian and Ye Katerina.

The cavalry of the Tsarist Russian Empire was definitely a powerful force that could change the entire battlefield. However, Chu Tian and Yekaterina were not moving for a long time, but were self-respecting and were still waiting for the opportunity to enter the field.

Constantine was already accustomed to Chu Tian’s style of interests supremacy: “They mostly think that our losses are not heavy enough. They are really cunning Orientals, and they will not take the initiative to do so until the end.”

"They defeated the Golden Horde with their own strength and now they are doing their own thing. We should be prepared to defeat Attila alone when the Tsarist Russian Empire would not take action."

"It makes sense."

The great lords of the West all believed that Chu Tian was not easy to get along with, and his style of conduct had no rules.

"Attila's army will soon advance to Linz, and before that, there will be two new allies willing to join our coalition forces and work together to deal with the threat from Attila, these two men may change the adverse situation."

Hohenzollern mentioned the new lords of the Western Lords' coalition.

The eleven major figures present were not the great lords of all European civilizations, but only represented Germany, Rome and Macedonia.

"New allies?"

Alexander was somewhat surprised by Hohenzollern's diplomatic ability. After he became the new leader, he recruited two new lords for the Western army, which was in a difficult situation.

Those who are qualified to join the Western lord coalition are all influential or powerful lords.

Caesar asked, “Who are they?”

"I have made a promise with them that they will soon come to Linz, the Grand Duchy of Austria. You and I will go with me to the teleportation array to welcome our new allies. I don't think they will let us down."

Hohenzollern stood up, and the other six electorates of the Holy Roman Empire also stood up.

Alexander and the three Roman giants were deeply interested in the new lords found by Hohenzollern, so they followed Hohenzollern to the teleportation array in Linz City, waiting for the new lord to lead their guards.

"These people are usually hidden. If they are truly destroyed, their elite troops will come out."

"Our native Rome is no less than Macedonia, and North Africa's colonies also have millions of people. If we continue to expand in North Africa, the population of the vassal state may reach 10 million."

The three Roman giants Constantine, Caesar and Pompeii were in the same camp. When observing their later opponents, they also compared the national strength of Rome and these civilizations.

If Rome wanted to unify the Western continent, it would defeat powerful civilizations such as the Macedonian Kingdom, the Holy Roman Empire, and France. No civilization had a population of less than the Roman land.

If Rome wants to expand, it must consider expanding to North African civilization.

"We can occupy Egypt, Morocco, not just Carthage. I need your support to gain more benefits in North Africa. Europe is not easy to fight, but African civilizations are weak. They do not know how to use local resources. We can obtain tens of millions of people in North Africa, and then use them as cannon fodder, provide taxes, and conquer other European civilizations."

After proposing the three emperors to govern together, Constantine proposed a plan to occupy North Africa. As a player lord, he could see a further prospect.

"Constantine, what legions do you have, not known to us?"

But Pompey was afraid of the two legions that Constantine had not yet appeared. He was worried that Constantine would back-slay the other two Roman giants.

Constantine did not directly answer: "Pompei, please believe me, our interests are consistent."

In the teleportation array of Linz, Hohenzollern led the other six electors of the Holy Roman Empire to wait for a special team of reinforcements to arrive.

"By the time, they should have arrived."

The teleportation array in Linz City flashed with white light, and a team of knights walked out of the teleportation array.

The knights' armor was covered with white robes on the outside. The chest position of the robes was a red cross, which was in sharp contrast with the black cross of the Teutonic Knights.

Alexander, Caesar, Pompeii, Constantine and others all looked at the arrival of the knights, who were also holding shields with red crosses.

"Louis of France?!"

Caesar was the Gauls, the French, who recognized this old opponent.

Gaul chicken is definitely not an easy enemy to deal with.

"Louis of Paris, it seems that you have settled the Visigoth King with Spain."
