Chapter 215: Question from the Emperor

Terra's army pursued the enemy with great momentum, which stunned the dwarf messenger who was secretly observing from the side.

"Ancestors, have the human army developed to this point? We can't go to Terra. We must tell the High King about this immediately!"

The messenger ran back towards the Eternal Peak.

The Skaven tried their best to escape, but two legs could not run as fast as four wheels.

The land of the Border Prince's territory was littered with the corpses of ratmen.

The ratmen who were trying to escape unexpectedly ran into the army led by Carl.

The army led by Carl crossed the pass and saw the defeated rat army at a glance.

Although they didn't know why these ratmen behaved like this, they still led their Rick Guards and infantry to kill them.

He and his guards used all means to kill the fleeing ratmen.

Carl seemed to be venting his pent-up emotions in recent days, and Deathclaw seemed to sense his master's emotions.

A man and a griffin rushed into the area where the ratmen deserters were most concentrated.

"For Sigmar! For the Empire!"

When Carl recovered from his violent state, he found that all his guards were looking in one direction nervously.

Following the gaze of Rick's guards, a group of cavalrymen in black coats appeared not far from them.

"Terra's Krieg Troopers?"

Carl recognized these troops as belonging to Terra.

The Kriegs riding on biochemical warhorses also joined the battle.

The fifty Krieg cavalrymen showed no fear in the face of Carl's 300 Rick Guards, and just looked at them coldly.

"Humph! The Kriegs of Terra! Why are you here? Let your earl come to see me, to see his emperor!"

Carl said bluntly.

But when Carl said the word "Emperor", these Krieg people actually rode their horses directly towards Carl's army.

The Krieg's reaction caught everyone off guard.

"Are these Kriegs crazy? Are they attacking me?" Carl was also shocked, but that didn't mean he was afraid.

Just as he was about to give the order to charge the Rick Guards, an unquestionable voice spoke to the Kriegs.

"Krieg Troopers, stop!"

Rebecca was in a Leman Russ and driving towards here, and behind her was Terra's large army.

Carl's face changed drastically when he saw this scene.

Of course, he had sent a large number of spies and agents to Terra, but they had never sent back any useful information, and some of them even disappeared.

He had been prepared mentally for a long time, he knew that Terra's development was far beyond his imagination, but the scene before him still cast a shadow on his heart.

When he saw Terra's army, Carl already knew that Terra's development was no longer something he could limit.

The steam tanks that were once considered sacred objects in the empire are now commonplace and appear on such a large scale.

Since there are so many here, the situation in Terra City, Ludwig’s base, will be even more exaggerated.

"Raising a tiger is a disaster..."

Carl murmured, and he had to accept this reality.

He knew that he was arrogant. He thought that no matter how powerful Terra was, it would only serve as a wedding dress for the Empire.

But with Zhang Heng's presence, Terra was freed from all restrictions.

With supplies, technology, warriors, and even high-end combat power at the god level, and the addition of the Bairsaze Gold Academy, Terra can now be said to be a monster without any shortcomings. "Rebecca..."

Seeing Rebecca coming directly in front of him, Carl called her name in a bad tone.

"Your Majesty, Archbishop Rebecca of Terra greets you."

"Hmph... Rebecca... Aren't you going to explain to me why your Terran army is here?"

After hearing Rebecca's words, Carl knew that it was impossible for Rebecca to do anything extreme to him, so he also asked in a questioning tone.

"Your Majesty, you have also seen that these Skaven ratmen are wreaking havoc on this land. Only one in ten humans in the Border Prince's territory remains."

"Ludwig is only a count. He is still a noble of the empire. Shouldn't he have informed the empire in advance of such a large-scale military mobilization? This is not the reason why you led the troops here!"

"Your Majesty, you may have misunderstood. Of course we informed Lord Bayershazer and he agreed to our action. After all, our Terra still belongs to Lord Bayershazer's territory. There is nothing wrong with us informing our superior nobles."

After hearing what Rebecca said, Carl became even angrier. It turned out that Bayershazer was in cahoots with Terra. No wonder he had been trying to stop him from coming over before!
Carl was a little overwhelmed, but Rebecca ignored him and continued.

"We are close to the Border Prince Territory. The ratmen's army is wreaking havoc here, which is very likely to threaten the safety of Terra and Sol Territory. We in Terra must defend ourselves! We can't wait for the war to reach Terra before we take action, right? And Lord Durant of the Border Prince Territory has also asked us for help."

Rebecca still used honorifics, but her tone was definitely not respectful.

For a moment, Karl was unable to legally accuse Rebecca of anything. After all, the system of electors allowed each territory to have a high degree of self-control.

“Your Majesty, it’s too dangerous here. You should go back with your soldiers. Terra must promote the majesty of the empire and make these evil creatures regret the choice they made!

Okay, Your Majesty, I must take the soldiers to continue to rescue those in distress. Soldiers, protect Your Majesty for me!"

Rebecca simply nodded to Carl and continued to advance with her troops.

However, the Kriegs and two companies of soldiers were still there. They were there for protection, but it was obviously for surveillance.

Karl suppressed his resentment and anger.

But the Rick Guards around him could no longer suppress their anger.

"Your Majesty! They are insulting you, and this is an insult to the Empire!"

"That's enough. Randolph, take my order and hurry back to tell Archbishop Walkerma and the High Priest of the Church of Yurik. Tell them that something has changed in Terra and that they must put aside their temporary prejudices!"

"What if they don't want to..."

"High Priest Walkerma knows what I mean."

"What about you, Your Majesty!"

"Me? I'd like to see what these Terrans are up to!"

Carl didn't want to miss this opportunity to observe Terra. If he missed this time, he might not have another chance next time.

Without waiting for the guards around him to say anything, Karl said to the Terran soldiers following him: "Go tell your bishop that your emperor wants to fight these ratmen with you!"

The Terra officer heard Carl's words and then used the communication facilities to report to Rebecca. After hearing Rebecca's affirmative answer, the officer said to Carl: "Then please follow me, Your Majesty."

Rebecca no longer cared about Carl's reaction. Terra had grown strong, and the only thing she had to do now was to develop as many believers as possible for the Emperor. This was the only thing she cared about.

The Terran army, which defeated the main force of the ratmen, advanced triumphantly all the way and directly entered the territory of Tyrell from the border princes.

Four cities were recaptured in one day.

If it weren't for the need to wipe out the remaining ratmen in this land and wait for subsequent ammunition supplies to arrive, the soldiers would even want to fight all the way to the ratmen's magic city.

But the results of the war were enough now. The border princes' territories plus Tyrell's territory now made the territory directly controlled by Terra several times more than before.

The population is still a little less.

This problem would soon be alleviated by integrating the population of Tyrell with that of the Border Princes.
