He is the Lord of MC, not the God of Light!

Chapter 87 87. This battle is for the entire Principality of Birka!
For Uriel and the others, this sentence was more effective than a shot of chicken blood.

Who is Ian?

That is the great and supreme Lord that has been determined in their hearts.

The Lord wishes to let his glory cover the entire Principality of Birka?
How dare that damn old Birka not hand over the Principality of Birka?
The great His Majesty Ian wants to protect the entire Principality of Birka. It is an honor for all the people of the Principality of Birka!

According to Uriel, the fragile alliance of the Hundred Races, which has ulterior motives, should directly declare its allegiance to the Dawn Cult and receive the oracle from the great Lord.

By then, what role will the demons have in this world?

Now, a mere Principality of Birka still needs the great Lord to personally order a war. Isn't this a betrayal of the Rodri Continent to His Majesty Ian, the God of Dawn!
What’s more, the great Lord also said that He would share the glory. That is God’s grace!

Damn it, the plague-stricken Principality of Birka didn’t surrender quickly, making it so late for them to receive the Lord’s grace.

In Uriel's heart, the hatred level of the royal family and nobles of the Principality of Birka has surpassed that of the Mind Flayer clan.

It's all heresy!

They should all be burned to death by Inquisitor Racia!
Although he was roaring in his heart, Uriel still looked at Ian with a pious expression.

"Your Holiness, our Dawn Cult has made very smooth progress under your guidance and protection."

"Thanks to the Egg Bread Offensive, passed down by Archbishop Leyal, the faith of Dawn has spread to seventeen of the thirty-five cities of the Principality of Birka and the capital."

"According to Father Matthew's statistics, our Dawn Divine Church currently has 590,000 registered believers."

"It's just that currently, the truly devout believers are still concentrated in large numbers in the Starting Point and Treetop City. The believers in other cities are mostly superficial believers."

"However, I can guarantee that the believers in the Land of Origin and Treetop City are all your loyal children. Even the believers in other cities will eventually establish their faith under your gaze."

Hearing this, Ian nodded with satisfaction.

It's not just a recognition of the speed at which the Dawn Cult's faith spreads, but also an appreciation of Uriel's ability to divide the cake and not take all the credit for himself.

If Uriel really didn't know how to share the credit, his life would have ended here.

Now it seems that it is still necessary to train Uriel.

"well-done."

Ian glanced at Uriel and the others, and after thinking it over again and again, he began the final test.

If Uriel and the others can get through this hurdle, then Ian can truly trust them, second only to his trust in Layar and the others.

"Orders are in effect. Markov will lead the army, with Harun and Uriel cooperating. We will mobilize two thousand Knights of the Dawn and five hundred Night Watchmen to Treetop City."

"Use Treetop City as a springboard to monitor the surrounding cities, be ready to breach them at any time, and spread the power of the Dawn."

For this battle, Ian has mobilized half of the Dawn Knights Legion and half of the Night Watch Winged Clan Army of the Dawn Cult.

Although the number is small, recruiting the army of the Dawn Cult is much easier than imagined.

As you fight along the way, you can recruit troops along the way. It’s okay to describe it as a snowball effect.

Before setting out for Treetop City, the Dawn Knights had only two thousand men.

After the battle of Treetop City, the number of recruits has expanded to more than 5,000 in the past few days.

This is still the formal organization. There are more than 3,000 people who are undergoing training. After the training is completed, they will be on the regular Dawn Knights Heavy Cavalry.

Ian has no shortage of resources now.

Besides, although the number of people is small, they are all elite!
All members of the Dawn Knights Legion are equipped with MC armored warhorses, alchemical potions, and equipment and weapons from the MC world.

To put it simply and crudely, any Dawn Knight, with the help of potions and equipment, can defeat ordinary intermediate knights and intermediate magicians.

Dozens of them gathered together and could chase and kill high-level knights.

There are only a few high-level knights in the entire Principality of Birka. At the very least, in cities like Ginkgo City, there is at most one intermediate knight and one intermediate magician.

These 2,500 men will surely charge forward and conquer half of the Principality of Birka for Ian without any resistance.

By then, with so many cities and populations, with Ian's current resource production speed and reserves, he could raise an army of 50,000 Dawn Heavy Cavalry in minutes.

What does it mean to have 50,000 Dawn Heavy Cavalry?
In the eastern part of the Hundred Races Alliance, he is invincible.

As long as you don’t encounter those strategic-level strongmen from the Hundred Races Alliance, you can sweep away everything!
However, by then, even if the Hundred Races Alliance sent out battlefield strategic-level humanoid self-propelled artillery that was far superior to high-level magicians, Ian would have plenty of ways to deal with it.

Layal won't stand still.

The Ender Dragon's breath is not a disadvantage either.

If all else fails, Ian will go to their house and reason with them. Ian's Steve Iron Fist is the supreme principle of the Dawn Cult.

"Yes! Your Majesty the Pope!"

Markov and the other two stood up excitedly, their eyes full of desire for war.

Ian paid close attention to observing Uriel, Matthew and the others, and found nothing unusual. He was quite supportive of this war order.

Nodding secretly, Ian said meaningfully:

"Given the time, the Birka capital should have received the news. Given the ambition of the Third Prince, he wouldn't miss this opportunity to blatantly demand military power."

"If nothing unexpected happens, he has already arrived with the capital's heavy cavalry and guards."

A cold light flashed in Wu Lie'er's eyes.

"Your Holiness, I remember that the Third Prince was the mastermind behind the two heretical families in Treecrown City..."

After that, he knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice:

"I am willing to personally behead and bring back the heretic to be burned! With the holy relics and alchemical potions bestowed by the Great Dawn, we will surely win this battle!"

Ian became more and more satisfied. Uriel had a sense of justice in his heart.

Of course, this righteousness is very narrow, referring only to firmly adhering to all of Ian's will and eliminating all of Ian's enemies.

But Ian liked this attitude very much; this was the answer he wanted.

"No, the Third Prince cannot move."

Ian looked at Uriel with a smile and said:
"Remember, we must wait until they send out their army and start a war with us before we can strike back."

"Once the counterattack begins, it cannot stop. Converge towards the capital. Everything along the way will be incorporated into the Dawn Territory." "This battle must be fair and just, with a legitimate reason."

"Uriel, do you understand me?"

Uriel was stunned for a moment, frowned and thought for a long time, then grinned.

"My subordinate understands!"

"In the Principality of Birka, there will be no chance of raising the flag of surrender, and no one will survive to apply for negotiation!"

Pass!

Ian now likes Uriel more and more.

Now, it is basically certain that Uriel is worthy of his trust second only to Laer and others.

Uriel not only firmly adheres to Ian's wishes, but more importantly, he understands what Ian wants.

A famous teacher!

Once the divine master becomes famous, it is impossible for him to give up this legitimate opportunity to annex.

Ian guessed that once the Principality of Birka realized it could not win the battle, it would definitely choose to negotiate, or even cede the city to save its life.

Ian understood very well how much the royal nobles valued their lives and status.

But Ian doesn't need peace talks, he wants the Principality of Birka!
This war will not stop until the Principality of Birka is destroyed.

It is both for the purpose of proving one's military power and for the long-term development of the Dawn Religion.

and so……

The flag of surrender is not allowed to be raised! The documents of the peace talks are not allowed to be circulated!
Maintain the name of the Dawn Cult's self-protection.

As for how to establish a reputation after finally resolving the Principality of Birka.

All Ian can say is that history is written by the victors.

He believed in the integrity of the princes and nobles, and once he took over the Principality of Birka, he would be able to fabricate hundreds of charges against them in a matter of minutes.

However, to be on the safe side, Ian still took out a killer move.

"Destroy cities along the way and search the homes of nobles. Confiscate and exterminate any family members who exploit the people, and publicize the evidence."

"Once we conquer half of the Principality of Birka, Uriel, I'll need you to raise a new banner."

Uriel looked at Ian curiously.

"Your Holiness, what is the banner?"

Ian chuckled and said faintly:
"The God of Dawn could not bear to see his people oppressed, so he ordered the Dawn Cult to speak for the people."

"Fight the nobles and divide the land!"

Just this one sentence instantly made Layal and others shudder.

An undefeated army, in the name of God's mercy, declared to defeat the nobles and divide their land.

You can imagine how crazy the people would be.

If the Phobos family had not transformed into a papal ruler, they would have been turned upside down in this war, even if they had never oppressed their people.

But no one questioned Ian's order, and Uriel nodded firmly.

"Yes! Your Holiness! But if we just blindly attack the city, I'm afraid the Principality of Birka will ask for help from other kingdoms and principalities."

Ian didn't say anything, just drank his tea, but his eyes were on Matthew and others.

Uriel had proven his loyalty, and now it was the turn of others.

Ian was not disappointed. Matthew thought for a moment and chuckled.

"Captain Wu Lie'er, isn't this better?"

"Once they send their troops, the Great Dawn will be able to spread its glory even further..."

very good!

Matthew is also trustworthy!

Ian became happier, and Haniya and others also began to add to their comments.

"Father, as long as they send troops, we'll have a legitimate reason to continue the fight!"

"My dear, Father Matthew and Haniya are right. You are not unaware of the character of the major human kingdoms."

"Rather than allowing them to continue oppressing the people and muddle through the war against the demons, we should let the great Dawn unite all forces! The Dawn is merciful, and this is their honor!"

"Yes, Chief, we are the army of the Great Dawn. Why should we care about those despicable human nobles?"

There are many different opinions, but there is only one core idea.

Come and fight!
Looking forward to his coming and fighting!

Ian smiled. Everyone in this conference room was a loyal minister.

Trustworthy!
Wu Lie'er gave a bitter laugh and said helplessly:
"I know. I just confirmed it with His Holiness the Pope. I'm really hoping to fight my way through and let the Great Dawn swallow up the entire Hundred Races Alliance."

As he spoke, Uriel's fanatical gaze was unconcealedly focused on Ian.

"Only my benevolent and holy Lord is qualified to command the Rodri Continent and bring hope and light to all living beings on the Rodri Continent!"

Ian smiled with relief.

He placed his hands on the long table and leaned forward.

"When you return victorious, I will let you enter the MC world and share this supreme glory!"

"Yes! The dawn will last forever!"
