Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 84: Richard's Army

   "The kingdom of Ramirez has invaded! Solemburg has fallen! The city of Luwen has been besieged!"

   Following in the footsteps of Maximilian’s messenger, the news that the Ramirez had come again after four years spread throughout the city of Lavana, which caught King Lawrence who had recently succeeded in Trizi Palace by surprise.

The new king who has just succeeded to the throne has no experience to deal with this situation. Before that, all the wars about the war were dealt with by the old king Harous and his brother, the former military commander Bandak. He only had to stay in the capital. It handles government affairs during the King’s absence.

However, now that King Harous has passed away for several months, Bandak has also been dismissed from the post of military commander because of his suspicion. The new military commander he appointed is a loyal to the royal fief near Ravana, the Earl of Adelaide. Ryde, the Earl of Adelaide is now 54 years old (in the Middle Ages when medical conditions are not high, 54 years old can be said to be an old age), although he also participated in the dialogue led by King Harous four years ago The Ramirez war, but there is no dazzling record, can only be said to be quite satisfactory.

"Your Majesty." The Earl of Adelaide stood in the Chamber of Trizi Palace, looking at the uneasy Lawrence and said: "Now that the Ramires are invading, we should enlist the nobles of the kingdom to send troops, especially Lord Richard of Lu Wencheng, after all, his territory is under siege. I think he needs to do more."

"I am afraid that the nobles of the Bandak faction will not send troops." Burris said in a low voice. Army."

"Indeed." Osrita, who has become the chief of foreign affairs, nodded, "Richard's strength has been rapidly improved in the past four years, and we can let him be responsible for directing the war against the Ramirez to test. He has never shown the strength."

   "Will he be willing?" Lawrence asked, frowning.

   "If we promise him the fallen Sorenburg, I believe he will be willing to go."

"What? Promise Sauronburg to him?" Lawrence and others were surprised, and the military chief Adelaide immediately said: "If Sauronburg is sealed to Richard, his strength will be further strengthened. We will What should I fight him against?"

   "He is standing with us, Adelaide." Lawrence frowned slightly, and said a little displeased.

"Even if we stand together now, who knows if he will have other thoughts in the future?" Adelaide did not change his opinion, he argued for reasons, "Don't forget, there is royal blood flowing in his body. Bloodline, he also has the right to claim Ravana’s throne!"

  "..."

   was pointed out by Adelaide, and all of them were silent for a while. They knew this very well in their hearts, but they didn't want to imagine that Richard started a war on the pretext of claiming the Kingdom of Lavana.

   Each of them has a hunch that if Richard wants to do this, there is no way to stop it with their power.

   "Let Richard lead the army to Lavana first, then we will make terms with him."

   In the end, King Lawrence made the decision. Although he still chose to believe Richard on the surface, the seeds of doubt in his heart have been planted, and one day it will take root and grow into a towering tree.

  ...

   When Richard got the news that Luwen City was under siege, it was already the afternoon of the second day after Lawrence and others had finished the meeting. He dismissed the envoy of Luwen City who was half-kneeling on the ground, and then summoned Magnus, and through Magnus, who was appointed by him as the military commander of the country, he gave an order for the assembly of the army.

   This time Richard did not intend to hide his strength. He combined all the foot feudal knights and feudal knights. Half of the heavily armored sergeants assembled, and then mobilized 10 spear militias (1120) and 8 crossbow militias (720) that implemented the farming war policy, bringing a total of 3210 people.

   He didn't dare to take all the soldiers away. It would be better to leave five teams of heavily armed sergeants in case.

It is said that when the soldiers are used, they hate less. Richard now understands this truth. After gathering all the troops, he thought that he was already invincible (you are invincible?) He realized that this number of soldiers is not enough, perhaps in the fourth. These soldiers were able to contend with a relatively weak kingdom years ago, but they are no longer comparable.

  After counting the army, and giving the soldiers another day of preparation time, Richard led the army and set off by boat. As before, they first landed in Port Bell, then moved on, and finally arrived in the city of Ravana.

   "Earl Richard, welcome to Ravana City."

   Outside the city gate of Ravana, Prince UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Burris and Osrita had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Richard, they greeted him together.

   Nothing to do with hospitality. Richard noticed something wrong in an instant, but he didn't say it clearly. With a smile on his face, he rolled over and got off his horse, greeted the two of them, and said, "Uncle Burris, Uncle Osrita, I'm here."

"You came in time. His Majesty the King is having a headache for the war in the East. I believe your arrival will relieve him." Burris said, looking at the army behind Richard without a trace. He was startled, Richard's army was so overwhelming that he couldn't see his head at a glance, and everyone looked like a rainbow, and he looked like a tiger and wolf teacher!

   After a fright, there is a surprise. Burris knew that Richard's true strength would not let him down, but he did not expect him to be so powerful. God knows how Richard developed in the past four years.

   "Yeah." Richard nodded, allowing Condra, who had been following him, to command the army to be stationed outside the city, and then accompanied Burris to the city gate with only two generals and guards. As he walked, Burris introduced what they knew about the war in the East, but Richard couldn't help frowning as he listened.

"It seems that the war is not good." Richard thought to himself that the number of Ramirez's army was close to 10,000. Although there would be some losses in the fortified battle of Luwen City, it was destined to not lose too much. Richard There were only more than 3,000 soldiers under his command, not even half of the enemy.

If the quality of the Ramirez soldiers is not high, Richard may still be confident of winning an epic victory in the war with less than more, but four years of lying wages have made the quality of Ramirez's army soldiers generally improved. After a lot, the combat effectiveness may be comparable to that of the system's general cargo spear militia.

   This is difficult.
