Rise of the Empire Total War

At night, Richard lay alone on the big soft velvet bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

His mind was always thinking about Cuban Island. After everyone left, King Harlaus left him alone and introduced the situation of the newly occupied island to him.

Cuban Island used to be the stronghold of the Moorish pirates. They relied on the location of Cuban Island to frantically plunder the fleet leading to Bell Port, and even threatened the safety of the city.

The unbearable King Halaus finally ordered the military commander Bandar to lead the long-sinking kingdom fleet to attack the Moorish pirates on Kuban Island amidst the petitions of the nobles and civilians. The stronghold of the Moorish pirates, and successfully captured the island, making it a kingdom territory.

As a major contributor to this victory, Cuban Island should have been granted to Bandar, but Richard turned out to snatch the island away, which caused Bandar's hostility.

In addition, King Harlaus also provided a key piece of information. The Moore pirates were not all wiped out. They still had remnants who escaped from Ravana's army and fled to the depths of the Shining Sea.

If nothing else, these escaped pirates are likely to attract a huge pirate fleet to take revenge on the Kingdom of Ravana.

According to the original words of King Harolds, the possible pirate invasion is also a test for Richard. If even the mob pirates are unable to deal with it, what is the use of restoring the Stuart dynasty?

If there is no total war system, Richard may still be cowardly, but now, he is even a little eager to try and can't wait to win this war.

Just as he was thinking, a system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Mission release: Hold on to Cuban Island in the future pirate revenge and defeat the Moore pirates. Mission Reward: Any currently recruitable elite troops, no less than 5,000 dinars. 】

Fuck? There's even a special mission?

Richard was stunned. He even started a new mission before completing the first mission. Who can resist this!

...

The next day, King Harolds announced the disposal of Cuban Island in the palace. He was beyond everyone's expectations.

You know, Cuban Island has a lot of resources, and there is a small mountain on it. No one knows if there are any minerals hidden in that mountain.

Although the nobles in the country questioned this, they could only be forced to accept it under the tough attitude of King Halaus. However, His Majesty's attitude made his son Bandar even more dissatisfied.

Richard didn't know all this. In order to develop better, he walked from the Trizzi Palace to the aristocratic area according to the address given by Douglas. While inquiring and searching, he finally found their family's manor.

The Griffin family's manor is very large, and it is only one street away from the Opera House, the most famous opera house in Ravana.

After revealing his identity and purpose to the guard at the gate, Richard was taken into the manor respectfully by the other party. Griffin Manor occupies a large area, and its scale is comparable to the high school that Richard attended in his previous life.

Passing through the garden full of exotic flowers and plants, you came to the front hall. Here, the heir of the Griffin family, Osrita, who had already received the news, and his younger brother Douglas had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Richard, A smile appeared on Douglas's face, but he dared not make any moves as if he had secretly glanced at his brother.

Richard looked a little funny, it seemed that Douglas was very afraid of his brother.

After the guard leading the way walked out of the front hall, Osrita took a step forward, with an impeccable smile on his face, and introduced himself: Hello, I am Osrita, the heir of the Griffin family. . Griffin,

Also your uncle.

Yes, uncle. Richard called out obediently, which made the other party nod in satisfaction, and said, I'm very defensive. Since you are Douglas's friend and you called me uncle again, after that I will protect you, if anyone dares to bully you in Ravana City, just come to me.

Good uncle. Richard almost smiled, but he still controlled his expression and pretended to agree calmly. It was really a pleasant surprise to get the approval of a family heir so quickly.

After speaking a few more words with Richard, Osleta left the front hall, leaving time for Douglas and Richard. As soon as Osleta left, Douglas seemed to be free in an instant, and jumped up , he patted Richard on the shoulder, and said strangely: My brother has always been very strict with juniors, why did he change his attitude when he came to you?

I don't know. As you can see, this is also the first time I've met him.

Forget it, I have heard about you from my brother, Richard, so you are from the Kingdom of Winster. Douglas said, pulling Richard out of the front hall, Since you are from the Kingdom of Winster, you must have never been to the Goliath Theatre. It is the most famous theater in Ravana City, where plays from the city-state of Osa are performed every day.

Osa city-state? Richard asked subconsciously.

No way, you don't even know about the Osa city-state? Douglas looked at Richard as if he had seen a ghost, and after making sure that the other party was not joking, he muttered: I really doubt that you are the wizard recorded in the book , the kind that came out after sleeping in a cave for hundreds of years.

Richard sweated and quickly explained: I grew up in the deep palace, and my understanding of the outside world is only limited to the Wadasia peninsula.

Really? Douglas squinted his eyes and looked at Richard. After thinking about his identity and background, he reluctantly believed, and said, Well, the city-state of Osa is located on the Osa Peninsula across the sea from the Vadasia Peninsula. It is not a country, but a collective name for countless large and small city-states on the Osa Peninsula.

That's it. Richard said, but he couldn't help but think of the Greek city-states on Earth in his previous life. This Osa city-state is like a replica of the Greek city-states. There are also many city-states on the peninsula, and they are also rich in literary works and dramas. .

During the conversation, the two walked out of Griffin Manor and looked at the entrance of the Grand Theater across the street. Douglas said, Richard, you should not have Morse coins (the legal currency of the Kingdom of Ravana) with you. I can pay the entrance fee for you.

As he said, Douglas took Richard to the entrance of the Grand Theater. He took out a linen bag from his arms, which was decorated with gold silk. In Richard's sight, he took out four coins from the bag. The silver morse was handed to the doorman, who was allowed in.
