Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 84 Richard's Army

The kingdom of Ramirez invaded! Fort Soren fell! The city of Luwen was besieged!

Following the footsteps of Maximilian's messenger, the news that the Ramires invaded again after four years spread throughout the city of Ravana, and King Lawrence, who had just succeeded to the throne in the Trizzi Palace, was caught off guard.

The new king, who has just succeeded to the throne, has no experience in dealing with this kind of situation. Before that, all wars were dealt with by the old king Halaus and his younger brother, the former military chief Bandak. He only needed to stay in the capital Here to deal with the government affairs during the king's absence.

Now, however, King Halaus has passed away for several months, and Bandak has been dismissed from the post of Marshal because of his suspicion, and the new Marshal he appointed is Earl Ade, a fief near Ravana who is loyal to the royal family. Ryder, the Earl of Adelaide is now 54 years old (in the Middle Ages when medical conditions were not high, 54 years old can already be said to be an advanced age), although he also participated in the confrontation led by King Harlaus four years ago The Ramirez people's war, but there is no outstanding record, it can only be said to be quite satisfactory.

Your Majesty. The Earl of Adelaide stood in the meeting room of the Trizzi Palace, looked at the disturbed Lawrence and said, Now that the Ramirez people are invading, we should recruit the nobles of the kingdom to send troops, especially Earl Richard, the lord of Luwen City, after all, his territory is under siege, I think he needs to do more.

I'm afraid the nobles of Bundak's faction won't send troops. Boris said in a low voice, Even if they will send troops, they will send a small number of untrained peasants and soldiers to deal with them. We can really rely on ourselves. army.

Indeed. Osrita, who has become the head of foreign affairs, nodded, In the past four years, Richard's strength has improved rapidly, and we can let him take charge of commanding the war against the Ramirez people, so as to test He never showed his strength.

Will he be willing? Lawrence asked, frowning.

If we promise him Sorenburg, which has already fallen, I believe he will be very willing to go.

What? Promise Sorenburg to him? Lawrence and the others were startled, and Adelaide, the military chief, immediately said: If you grant Sorenburg to Richard, his strength will be further enhanced. By then we will What should I fight against him?

He's with us, Adelaide. Lawrence frowned slightly, and said with some displeasure.

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, Don't forget, there is also a royal blood in his body. Bloodline, he also has the right to claim the throne of Ravana!

...

After being pointed out by Adelaide, several people were silent for a while. They all knew this in their hearts, but they didn't want to imagine Richard launching a war under the pretext of claiming the Kingdom of Ravana.

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

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

In the end, it was King Lawrence who made the decision. Although he chose to believe in Richard on the surface, the seeds of doubt in his heart had already been planted, and one day they would take root and grow into towering trees.

...

When Richard got the news that Leuwen City was under siege, it was already the afternoon of the second day after Lawrence and others finished their meeting. He dismissed the envoy of Luwen City who was half kneeling on the ground, and then summoned Magnus, who gave the order to assemble the army through Magnus, who was appointed by him as the military chief of the country.

For this expedition, Richard did not intend to hide his strength, he combined all the feudal knights on foot with the feudal knights. Half of the heavily armed sergeants were assembled, and then mobilized 10 spear militias (1120 people) and 8 crossbow militias (720 people) to implement the farming war policy.

A total of 3210 people.

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

It is said that when the soldiers are used, they will hate less. Richard only understands this truth now. After gathering all the troops, he thought he was invincible (you are invincible?) He realized that this number of soldiers is not enough, maybe in four Years ago, these soldiers could still compete with a relatively weak kingdom, but now they are no longer comparable.

After counting the army and giving the soldiers another day to prepare, Richard led the army and set off by boat. As before, they first landed in Port Bell, then continued to advance, and finally arrived in the city of Ravana.

Count Richard, welcome to the city of Ravana.

Outside the city gate of Ravana City, Prince Boris and Osrita had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Richard, they greeted him together.

There is nothing to be courteous about. Richard sensed something was wrong in an instant, but he didn't say it clearly, and with a smile on his face, he got off his horse and greeted the two, saying, Uncle Burris, Uncle Osrita, I'm here.

You came in time. His Majesty the King is suffering from the war in the East. I believe your arrival can relieve him. Boris said, looking at the army behind Richard without a trace. He was taken aback. Richard's army was so dense that he couldn't see the end at a glance, and everyone was so imposing that they looked like tigers and wolves!

Surprise came after the shock. Burris knew that Richard's real strength would not let him down, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful. God knows how Richard developed in the past four years.

Well. Richard nodded, and let Condora, who had been following behind him, command the army to station outside the city, and then followed Boris and the two of them to the city gate with only two general guards. While walking, Burris introduced what they knew about the war in the East. Richard listened, but his brows could not help but frown.

It seems that the battle is not good. Richard thought to himself, the Ramirez army numbered close to 10,000, although there would be some losses in the fortified battle of Leuwen City, but they were destined not to lose too much, and Richard There are only more than 3,000 soldiers under his command, not even half of the enemy.

If the quality of Ramirez's soldiers is not high, Richard may still have the confidence to win an epic victory in the war with less victory, but four years of hard work has generally improved the quality of Ramirez's army soldiers Quite a few, and their combat effectiveness may be comparable to that of the system's high-end spear militia.

This is difficult.
