Rise of the Empire Total War

Ingrid, what's going on outside?

In the evening, looking at the maid Ingrid who came in with food, Elizabeth, who was sitting on the bed, asked in a deep voice.

Ingrid, who was suddenly asked, did not show surprise. She looked as if she had expected it, and said: Your Highness, our army has won a big victory, and all the incoming enemy ships were sunk.

All... were sunk? Elizabeth shrank her pupils and said tremblingly.

Yes, but we rescued more than a hundred sailors who fell into the water, and they are currently being held in the bottom cabins of various warships. Ingrid said casually as if to comfort her.

Then can I go to see them? The little princess became energetic immediately after hearing this, and asked Ingrid with wide eyes expectantly. Her appearance softened Ingrid's heart, and she was about to agree to her, but she quickly remembered what Bibulus had ordered in advance, so she hardened her heart and refused: I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness, Bibulus Master Si has ordered that you are not allowed to meet with them.

Hearing this, Elizabeth's face drooped immediately, she curled her lips and said, Okay. Then she took the plate from Ingrid's hand, and slowly ate it into her stomach.

What Ingrid didn't tell her was that the imperial navy commander who was in charge of the operation was also one of the captured members. The difference in attire was identified and brought to the captain's cabin to be personally interviewed by Bibulus.

Out of respect for a nobleman, the admiral with a goatee named William Walker was not tied up, but changed into a better costume and had dinner with Bibulus.

Swallowing a piece of fish dipped in sauce in one gulp, Bibulus looked at the imperial general who was barely moving in front of him, chuckled, and said, General Walker, are you worried that we poisoned our food?

No. William Walker shook his head, he looked at the whole fish and a small piece of white bread in front of him, he had no appetite at all, Please forgive me for being rude, General Bibulus, before seeing Her Royal Highness, I have no appetite to eat.

Hearing this, Bibulus was slightly taken aback, then he smiled and said: His Royal Highness has been doing well, she has a special room, and there are maids to serve her, please rest assured.

General Bibulus, if you want to exchange Her Royal Highness for ransom, I can convey it on your behalf. William stared at Bibulus and said sincerely, As long as Her Royal Highness can return safely, the grievances between the two countries will be resolved. A write-off.

A write-off? Bibulus repeated the words he just said,

Suddenly threw the knife and fork in his hand on the table, stood up, and said, What about the life of General Hariand? His tone was a little excited, The general was poisoned to death by you! He can't survive!

General Hariand was not poisoned by us. William frowned and retorted. Although he was not in Amatlia when the incident happened, he had heard about it, not to mention that they did not poison Hariand. Even if there was a motive for Germany, he would not choose to do it at this critical point before the war. This is clearly asking for trouble.

Oh, it wasn't you who poisoned, who was that? Bibulus didn't think of that, he said with a sneer, The general was poisoned to death in the stronghold of Amatlia, and there are still some of your soldiers left nearby. The nameplate of the officer, the evidence is conclusive, and you still want to shirk responsibility?

General Bibulus. William gritted his teeth and said every word, Then tell me, why did we poison General Hariand?

Why? How do I know why? Bibulus sneered, with a strong disdain in his tone, If I knew, you would have no chance to attack.

William closed his mouth, he was a little helpless, Bibulus was so stubborn, it seemed that he could not be persuaded, and instead of continuing to waste his words, it was better to shut up in time to avoid the expansion of the conflict. However, his retreat was an expression of humility in the eyes of Bibulus. With a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth, the paranoid Roman adjutant sat back on his chair and looked at William.

Why don't you continue talking? Your Excellency Walker. He said.

To paraphrase what His Majesty the Emperor once said. William smiled lightly, and continued: Play the piano to the cow.

What do you mean? Bibulus was puzzled.

It means, since you can't understand what I'm saying, then there's no need for me to waste my saliva.

you!

Without waiting for Bibulus to get angry, William stood up directly, took a symbolic farewell, then strode out of the captain's room, and was taken away by several soldiers standing outside the door.

Seeing the back of William leaving, Bibulus directly swept the things on the table, kicked the wooden table over, and shouted angrily: Damn it!

...

After the interception fleet was destroyed, the Roman fleet no longer had obstacles in the way. It crossed the Sea of ​​​​Shining and entered the Strait of Istola. The news of the war between the two Roman Empires had spread throughout most of the Kuyavian continent. The countries of the Latin Peninsula have also heard about this. They were shocked to see the huge fleet flying the red eagle flag appearing in this sea area. The presence of the Roman navy here only represents one thing, that is, the legendary war without war. The victorious Holy Roman Empire was defeated - they didn't think the Romans could defeat these huge warships.

This was also confirmed after the Roman fleet sailed into the coastal port to replenish supplies. They learned the news of the naval battle on the Shining Sea and the capture of the princess of the Holy Roman Empire from the Roman population who disembarked for procurement. These two heavy news spread out to let the kings of all countries know.

As a result, the powerful image of the Holy Roman Empire was discounted, and the courts of various countries laughed and said that the so-called Holy Roman Empire was nothing more than that, and their military strength may not be as strong as in the legend. It is purely a matter of defeating the Kuyawi Empire. Because the military power of the Kuyavian Empire was too damaged when resisting the barbarian invasion.

Elizabeth on the ship didn't know about it. She stood on the deck, looking at the bustling scene of the port, and then looking to the west, the boundless ocean. Having received the education of court teachers, she knew very well that she would be taken by the court next time. Where to go, in the known world of the Kuyawi continent, go out from the Istola Strait to the vast Kuyawi Sea and the Atlantis Sea, and continue westward through the Atlantis Sea , will arrive at the legendary Dogero Continent, which is the hometown of these Romans.

Once she arrives in the Dogero Continent, it is very likely that she will never be able to return to her hometown in this life.
