Rise of the Empire Total War

Looking at Osama who was obviously frightened, Richard's face was gloomy, and he stared at him fiercely, as if he was about to swallow Osama alive in the next second.

Osama shivered involuntarily, his back was wet with cold sweat.

Osama. Richard narrowed his eyes, looked at the King Luctus, and said in a low tone, Don't think I don't know your intentions, I have always been aware of your intentions, and I just dealt with you, but you are not only ungrateful, Instead, trying to get my hands on my daughter is really asking for death.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty...

Oh, Osama, you asked for this. Richard ignored Osama's reaction. He sneered and called soldiers, pointed at Osama whose legs were weak, and said, Osama Ma intends to rebel and commit treason, arrest him and throw him into a dungeon!

As ordered.

The two Imperial Guard soldiers responded coldly, then looked at each other, stepped forward and clamped Osama tightly, and dragged him out of the door forcibly. Only then did Osama react and struggle subconsciously, but how could he He was the opponent of two elite soldiers who had experienced many battles. His resistance didn't help, and he was still dragged out of the door.

After this incident happened, Richard was not in the mood to attend the banquet originally prepared by King Osama, so he left here with a cold snort. Stephanie wanted to follow, but considering that there were Harriand and others, she could only Turning around and looking at them apologetically, he said, Gentlemen, let's go back and have a rest first, and we will have someone deliver the dinner.

Okay, Your Majesty the Queen. Hariand and the others said while rubbing their chests. Seeing this, Stephanie nodded and led the child to chase after her.

Soon, only Hariand and his party were left in the hall.

General... the adjutant started, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Hariand waving his hand. He looked around and said, Go back first, and we'll talk about it when we have something to say.

Yes. The adjutant replied, and only then did he realize that this is someone else's territory, and the walls have ears.

After returning to the room assigned to them, the adjutant breathed a sigh of relief. The door was guarded by two Roman soldiers, so he was not afraid of being overheard. He said, General, it seems that the Holy Roman Emperor's confinement is his daughter. Princess Elizabeth, perhaps we can use this to make some plans.

What plan? Hariand asked, glancing at him.

We are not in conflict with the Holy Roman Empire now, and this is still their territory, so don't do anything stupid.

He reminded again.

The adjutant opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he could only say: Tsk, obey, General.

...

At the same time, Richard, who was sitting on the bed, was still angry, and he shouted angrily: How dare he! My precious daughter is only nine years old! Fuck it!

...

Stephanie who walked in looked at him speechlessly, and persuaded: Okay, don't be angry, pay attention, the child is still here.

But... Richard wanted to continue talking, but when he saw Frederick and Elizabeth standing beside Stephanie, he swallowed back the words immediately, and said in a muffled voice: I'm just angry, No one can touch my daughter, no matter who it is.

Heh. Stephanie chuckled, took Elizabeth to sit next to Richard, then stretched out the hand holding her daughter, and said, Come on, get close to your precious daughter.

Richard heard her teasing, just glanced at her, and then hugged Elizabeth into his arms. The softness of his arms made him dare not even use force for fear of breaking his daughter's body.

Elizabeth also understood why Richard was angry. She leaned into her father's arms obediently, raised her head and kissed his chin, and then let out a giggle. Richard's tense face immediately relaxed, and he felt much better .

Watching this scene, Frederick on the side showed a suspicious expression, and he suddenly had a feeling that he shouldn't be here.

What is the experience of having a father who is a daughter slave?

...

The news that Usama was convicted of treason for attempting to rebel quickly spread throughout the city of Lyktos, and the citizens talked about it. It is empty, so the citizens are not dissatisfied with this, they are indifferent, and in fact, whether the king is changed or not is irrelevant to them.

Considering the important transportation hub status of Lyctus Port, Richard decided not to set up a king. He convened the citizens of the Kingdom of Lyctus in the whole city and officially announced on the city square in front of the palace that the monarchy would be abolished and a parliamentary republic would be established. , the former kingdom officials are automatically converted into members of parliament, participate in the management of national government affairs, and will elect a consul within a week as the new national leader for a four-year term.

In fact, Richard originally wanted to directly merge the Kingdom of Lyctus into the empire's territory, but he considered that there was still a wave of opposition to the empire on the Osa Peninsula, and if he made an annexation rashly, it was likely to intensify the resistance of the Osa people Sentiment, not conducive to the current situation.

The citizens of the original Kingdom of Lyctus did not have any dissatisfaction with the abolition of the monarchy. Similarly, they did not welcome the so-called republic. They listened to Richard's speech numbly like robots, and then symbolized Clapping passionately, like an audience with no emotion.

When the people of a country become like this, it means that the country is dying.

...

After staying in Lyktos City for a few days and confirming the stability of the new regime, Richard left the city with his army and marched towards Amatlia, the stronghold of the imperial army on the Osa Peninsula. Because Richard did not intentionally conceal the news during this trip, it quickly spread throughout most of the empire-occupied area. Some people were happy about this, while others were worried.

Some daring rebel organizations and forces immediately planned an assassination plan against Richard after getting the news. They knew that this was a godsend opportunity. Now the crown prince of the Holy Roman Empire is only a ten-year-old child, and even follows Richard Come to this place together, if they succeed in the assassination and kill Richard and his successor, then the Holy Roman Empire will soon enter a state of chaos without a leader, just like a prosperous giant in history The empire, after the death of the leader, his subordinates lost their suppression, and directly divided the entire empire into dozens of kingdoms.

Those bold forces think this is an excellent opportunity, but some forces are pessimistic that this is a manifestation of the Holy Roman Empire's focus on the Osa Peninsula. There has been no war in the empire for more than a year, and the emperor himself came suddenly , there is no doubt that he has taken a fancy to this piece of land.
