Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 280 The surrendered prince

Congratulations on a great victory, Your Majesty the King!

Walking on the battlefield full of corpses, Magnus, who was covered in blood all over his body, was by his side. Listening to his words, Richard smiled slightly and said, Magnus, you lead the heavy cavalry to smash the coalition army. You have made great contributions, and when the war is over, I will reward you for your merits, so that you can get the rewards you deserve.

This is what I should do, Your Majesty the King. Magnus said, although he didn't say it explicitly, but Richard could still see the joy on his face.

So, Magnus, what's the result of our battle this time. Richard chuckled and changed the topic to the result of this battle. Hearing Richard's question, Magnus quickly said: Your Majesty, we killed eighteen chain mail cavalrymen and three imperial knights in this battle, but killed 891 enemies and captured 4,000. Thirty-three people, one of them claimed to be Prince Randall of Rogel Principality, besides that, fifty-seven nobles who surrendered were held in solitary confinement.

So many nobles? Richard frowned, stopped his horse, and said, They are treated preferentially according to the Noble Law, but you must pay close attention to them. These nobles are all moving money bags.

Understood, Your Majesty. Magnus immediately understood what Richard said. He, a native of the Middle Ages, understood the rules among nobles. Once these nobles were captured, they had to pay a sum of money. A ransom is required to regain freedom.

Richard nodded, and continued: Those prisoners of war, we took them back to the country and sent them to the Arrest Silver Mine to work, just to replace the miners and save a fee.

Understood. Magnus replied again, and at this moment, Richard suddenly remembered the prince of the Principality of Rogel he had just mentioned, and asked: What is that name, um... Randall ? Yes, it’s Randall, bring that Prince Randall to me and let me meet him.”

This time, without Magnus leaving, a general guard knight who had been following them left the team to pick up the prince named Randall. After a few minutes, a man in a blue burqa, The young man who looked very embarrassed was brought over, and Richard observed him for a while. The young man had long brown hair, but his skin was stuck to his skin with mud and sweat, making him look very unbearable.

Standing in front of Richard, the young prince named Randall was a little anxious. He didn't dare to look directly at Richard. He only dared to look down at the blood-stained ground and said nervously: Dear Richard! Your Majesty the King of Germany, congratulations on this victory.

His Royal Highness Prince Randall, don't be nervous, look up at me. Richard looked at him, with a gentle smile on his face, and comforted him: Please don't worry, according to the Noble Law, you will Receive preferential treatment from our army, until the Grand Duke of your country pays a suitable ransom, you can return home safely.

Although he has always known this truth, Randall was only relieved when he heard Richard say it himself. However, when he thought of the treatment in China, his heart was not only covered with gray. He plucked up his courage, wanted to tell all the thoughts in his heart, looked up at Richard, and was surprised to find that Richard was even younger than himself, although his face was still a little immature, But it exudes an oppressive majesty.

Your Majesty the King. Randall swallowed, and said: Although it is very sudden to say this, please accept the loyalty of a failed prince from Rogel Principality.

What? Richard frowned and asked, What do you mean, Prince Randall.

You may not believe it, but I was able to go out with the army this time. In fact, it was my father, Grand Duke Rogel, who wanted to take the opportunity to kill me on the battlefield, so he sent me here on the grounds of exercising my abilities. Lan Doyle explained, his tone was a little lonely, Although I am the eldest son, my father prefers my younger brother and has repeatedly expressed his intention to let my younger brother succeed. If the law of the Principality is not the primogeniture system If so, nothing will happen later.

But because of this primogeniture system, my father had to get rid of me first if he wanted my younger brother to succeed to the throne, and the best way to get rid of me at present is to let me die on the battlefield.

... Richard was silent. Although this kind of fatherly kindness and filial piety can often be seen in film and television dramas and novels in his previous life, he was still a little surprised when he really saw it. He thought about it and asked: Then How did you survive?

This question is the key, since his father wanted to get rid of him on the battlefield, there is no reason why he is still alive from the start of the war.

Because they haven't found a chance to attack. Randall said with a wry smile, The coalition forces have never had the opportunity to fight your army, and the only frontal battle occurred only when they besieged the city of Tus, but in the siege battle I have never been on the front line, so they have no chance to strike. But in the previous battalion noise, they tried to take advantage of the opportunity to strike, and they were interrupted by the Swachic army who came to suppress it.

This is really lucky. Richard was a little emotional, but he still didn't dare to fully believe Randall, so he asked: The last question, even if I am loyal to me, it is impossible for me to ask you for you. Father's revenge, do you still want to swear allegiance to me?

Your Majesty, I don't need you to stand up for me. Randall shook his head and said firmly: I want to use my own strength to make my father and those who look down on me regret it!

Listening to his firm words, Richard fell silent again. He didn't know if it was an illusion. He always felt that this prince was somewhat similar to himself. The only difference was that he was taking revenge on his biological father, while Richard De is revenge on Zhu Tian for the hatred of the country and the family.

As a result, feelings of sympathy and sympathy arose in his heart.

I see, Prince Randall. Richard said, listening to his words, Randall's eyes shone slightly, as if hope was born, and Richard did not let him down, only to see Richard De thin lips parted slightly, and then said: Although I will not attack the Principality of Rogel at present, I still accept your allegiance, and I will let you stay by my side as my lieutenant general, and you should also serve as During this period of time, the lieutenant general learns the knowledge about commanding troops, and when the time comes, he will apply this knowledge to reality.

I... understand, Your Majesty the King! Prince Randall said happily, looking at him like that, he seemed to have won a million-dollar prize, Richard smiled slightly, and said: Then, I will call you directly in the future. Your name is out, Randall, you go and clean it first, I hope to see a clean and tidy new lieutenant general.

Yes, Your Majesty.
