Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 79: 4 years later

   blast—

In Richard’s astonished gaze, the tower with the Stuart family’s Orioles flag collapsed, making a deafening noise, and the rising sky of smoke almost enveloped the nearby ground, even from the perspective of a bystander. Richard who was watching was shocked.

After the tower was destroyed, bursts of cheers pierced through the smoke and dust, resounding through the entire palace, and then countless soldiers holding their weapons flocked to the palace hall in the center like a red torrent, and lined up on the path they must pass for defense. The weak defensive line of the imperial guards of the palace was unable to block the enemy's attack, and was washed away and submerged by the red flood after only resisting it for a while.

All this is so familiar, it is a scene that Richard will never forget. Although he, a soul from the 21st century earth, has not personally experienced it, the memory left by this body will remind him of the terrible from time to time. Past.

   "Kill! Rush in! Whoever kills King Alfonso, I will make him the new nobleman of the kingdom!"

In the red torrent, a handsome middle-aged man with a beard and a handsome face shouted loudly. The sharp sword in his hand pointed directly at the court, and the confidence and pride on his face did not conceal the rebellion. Initiator, the most trusted general of King Alfonso, Jutian.

For this despicable rebel, Richard does not have much news about him in his memory. Before the rebellion, the young Richard even had a good impression of him, because every once in a while, this handsome middleman The general will send his son into the palace to give Richard some small toys. For this reason, Jutian was also awarded the title of "Friend of the Royal Family" by King Alfonso, and this title also gave him a lot of prestige.

   Richard didn't know why he dreamed of this scene again, he quietly watched the disgusting red torrent pouring into the court, his slightly childish face expressionless.

"Is this you urging me not to forget to avenge my father and mother?" Richard muttered in a low voice, but this sentence was for the slightest consciousness that may still be left in this body. He is here in the soul. The person with the body knew from the beginning that the original owner's consciousness had not dissipated, but was hidden in his heart, and may only dissipate on his own after he completed the great cause of restoring the country.

   This is an obsession, a young prince in exile obsessed with restoration and revenge.

   As if responding to Richard's words, there was a slight fluctuation in the air, and the fluctuation was like a teenager nodding.

"Relax, I will never forget." Richard continued, "Since I took over everything from you, we have become one. Your goal is my goal, and your enemy is also my enemy. ."

   Speaking of this, he paused and turned his eyes to Zhu Tianan in the crowd, saying: "As for that rebel, I will surely make him pay the price one day."

In the second after Richard finished speaking, his eyes fell sharply, and he soon fell into the dark abyss. Then, everything in the dream shattered like a mirror, sparkling, and his consciousness also Then return to reality.

   "Huh!"

After opening his eyes, he saw the marble ceiling. Richard suddenly sat up from the bed, panting and looking around, while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, every time he dreamed back to that miserable place, he Your body and mind will be seriously consumed.

   Looking at the sky outside the window, it was still gray. Richard sighed, then lay down slowly, closing his eyes and trying to sleep again. With his current strength, he still can't contend with the usurper Zhu Tianan. Although this remaining physical consciousness is very anxious about revenge, he still has no choice but to discuss everything from a long-term perspective.

  ...

   Time passed, the sun and the moon flew, and in a blink of an eye, four years of time passed like a river, gone forever, and Richard has grown from a 15-year-old to a 19-year-old mature youth.

Under his four-year operation, the population on Kuban Island has also exceeded the 20,000 mark. Nuremberg, which has been upgraded to a large city, has a permanent population of 13,502, but five villages on the island—no, it should be called. For the towns, these towns composed of the original refugees inhabited a total of 6,000 residents (in addition to the original refugees, they also absorbed more or less of the refugees from outside the island within four years). In addition, the port of Kuban Island has also formed a port town due to the prosperous trade, which Richard did not expect.

  Although other towns except Nuremberg are not included in the system city, the economic income they generate is also a very substantial existence, and Richard has become a strong economically powerful nobleman in the Kingdom of Lavana.

With the support of a strong economy, Richard built a system-recognized fortress on the mountainside of the King's Mountain (named by Richard himself) in the center of Kuban, named Brandenburg, and officially moved his residence here. , Like a new capital. Of course, this "new capital" is just a concept in the game. Here, the capital is still Nuremberg, which will never change.

In addition to building the castle, Richard also has a powerful army, including a total of 450 pedestrian feudal knights (5 teams), 360 feudal knights (4 teams) and 1,120 people (10 teams). In addition, Richard also has a group of militia forces that can be pulled up at any time.

This is about introducing a policy that Richard implemented in four years. He first used the system to recruit a large number of militiamen, and then ordered these militiamen to engage in farming warfare, that is, to become farmers in peacetime for farming and production, and to take up arms to respond during wartime. Richard's recruitment to participate in the war-although this is the most common method of enlistment in the Middle Ages, the rigid system will only follow the cheating method of enlistment in the game, so Richard can only issue another policy by himself.

In addition to a powerful army, Richard’s navy is also a force that cannot be ignored. In four years of construction, he also has an "invincible fleet" with 30 warships passing through. The fleet includes fourteen Kirk warships and ten Hawk warships (recruited after the construction of the dock), as well as those Cuban warships transformed from pirate ships.

   is such a fleet, almost capable of sweeping the entire sea of ​​shining.

   On the other side, the city of Luwen under the jurisdiction of Governor Maximilian has also been well developed. After the unremitting efforts of the priests, most of the residents in the city have converted to Christianity and become loyal subjects of Richard and God. The population of the city has also grown from more than 3,000 to more than 10,000. Thanks to Governor Maximilian’s presiding over the health work, large-scale diseases rarely appear and the population growth of the city will not increase. Be hit and hindered.

The increase in population also means the increase in soldiers. In addition to the foot feudal knights and chain knights left by Richard, Maximilian also recruited some spear militias. These spear militias not only protected the city, Also participated in the eradication of thieves and accumulated a lot of combat experience.
