Rise of the Empire Total War

"Smash! Smash them down!"

On the wall of Ravana City, listening to the officers' roars, the defenders lifted stones from the side and threw them down at the soldiers of Richard's Atonement Battalion who were climbing. The stones they threw hit the leading soldiers heavily. The shield raised by one hand caused him to lose his balance, screamed and fell from a high altitude, and then fell into the crowd, overwhelming a group of soldiers.

Not only falling rocks, but in order to drive down the enemies using the "ant-attachment" tactics, the defenders did whatever they could. They stood on the wall and held spears in their hands to assassinate the climbing enemies. The climbing enemies were powerless to resist. Let the spear come.

In addition to stabbing with spears, pots of boiling "golden juice" that exudes stench are also the weapons of the defenders. It makes people almost faint, the unbearable high temperature can also scald the enemy, and the built-in bacteria can also cause wound infection-this is a biological and chemical weapon in the Middle Ages.

"Eat your uncle's feces!"

Amidst the unbridled insults of the guarding soldiers, a pot of boiling "golden juice" was poured down by them together, and along the climbing soldiers of the atonement camp, a wave of justice fell from heaven, and the boiling "golden juice" was poured on the people. His body was poured into the gaps in the armor, and the severe pain caused the climbing soldier to scream, but when he opened his mouth, the "golden juice" poured directly into his mouth, and the scalding liquid corroded He scratched his throat, causing his vocal organs to be scrapped in an instant, and the pain made him subconsciously let go of his hand, and the whole person fell off the ladder.

A pot of "golden juice" directly caused dozens of soldiers on a ladder to die suddenly on the spot. Although the rest of the soldiers did not receive justice from the dung water, the miserable cries of their comrades still shook their hearts. Those comrades who were almost scalded by the high-temperature liquid couldn't help their legs becoming weak, and they had no fighting spirit.

Compared with the city defense materials such as falling stones and wood, the "golden juice" with feces as the main component is obviously easier to collect. After all, where there are people, there must be human excrement, and the discharge of the whole city alone is enough to support several people. A large city defense battle.

...

The sunset came as expected, and the soldiers of the atonement camp retreated to the camp in the dim light of the sunset amidst the low and sad retreat horns. The atmosphere before the expedition hardly changed much. Before the expedition, their morale was not high. It's a drop in morale.

Watching the blood-stained soldiers walk into the camp dejectedly, Richard sighed. Although the degree of resistance of the defenders was within his expectations, the casualties caused by such fierce resistance still made him overwhelmed.

Although the soldiers who died in battle are just the most worthless atonement camp.

But to appease the soldiers,

In order to prevent the defeat of the Atonement Camp from affecting the soldiers who did not participate in the battle, Richard still ordered to stop the siege and rest in the camp for a few days. After the truce was promulgated, the interaction frequency of the couriers in the three besieged camps increased significantly. Every day, the couriers in light armor could be seen running out of the camp and heading towards the direction of the other besieged camps.

The sudden peace also relieved the defenders. No one likes war, and they are also forced by life, so they had to take up arms to resist the attack of Richard's army.

The pair fall into an eerie peace.

Finally, on the tenth day after the armistice, a chaotic army appeared outside the besieged camp where Richard was. This army held complicated flags, and each flag represented the nobles behind this army.

These troops are the nobles who obeyed Richard's call to fight for Princess Stephanie. Although they had provided soldiers to the royal family to resist the rebels before, after hearing that the king's capital had fallen and the king died in battle, they still took them with them without hesitation. The only remaining soldiers in the collar responded to Richard.

The army brought by these little nobles was only three or four hundred people in total, which did not help the situation of the siege, but Richard still personally led the general guard and took Princess Stephanie to a place far away from the camp to meet them. They are just like the old saying in their hometown: Goose feathers are sent thousands of miles away, but the gift is light and the affection is heavy. Although their gift was slight, the thought was enough for Richard to come and welcome him himself.

The most precious thing in a country are these loyal people. As long as there are these loyal people, the country will not really perish.

For Richard and Stephanie's personal welcome, these nobles seemed flattered, and they all swore on the spot to fight for the recovery of the legal rule of King Lawrence. How much sincerity is mixed in it.

...

Let the noble army re-establish a small camp next to the camp, and Richard held a small welcome banquet in the military camp. As the object of loyalty, Princess Stephanie naturally became the heroine of the banquet. Although she dismissed these food-consuming banquets in her heart, Richard still held them. Before the banquet started, Stephanie saw his emotions, and while arranging Richard's clothes, she said softly: "Now is just the beginning. When we achieve greater achievements, more people will join our faction. In order to win people's hearts, holding a banquet is also essential."

After finishing speaking, she lightly patted Richard on the chest, and said angrily, "I don't know that you were born as a crown prince, so why do you look down on the most common banquet among nobles?"

Richard smiled bitterly and explained: "It's not that I don't like the banquet, but I just think it's not good to be extravagant and wasteful during the war."

"You're right, but the nobles don't think about this, they only care about the final result." After Stephanie finished speaking, she took a few steps back, looked at Richard standing in front of her, and laughed and teased Said: "Our little prince is really handsome, and I don't know how many young girls and women will fall in love with you in the future."

"Didn't I just fall in love with you?" Richard took a step forward and forcibly embraced Stephanie's slender waist, looking at her domineeringly. Since Richard was a head taller than Stephanie, his gaze It is used to look down.

Stephanie blushed slightly, punched Richard lightly, and spat, "I didn't."

Hearing this, Richard put on a sad look and said, "Then I'm very sad. I haven't even been able to fall in love with the most beautiful princess in Ravana, so how can I conquer other girls?"

"I will be completely conquered by you when you lead the army to attack the city of Kravana." After Stephanie finished speaking, she pushed Richard away and fled from him, "Stop making trouble, the banquet will start soon, As the commander in chief of the army, you can't be late."

Seeing Stephanie slipping away from his hands, Richard raised the corner of his mouth, bent down and stroked his chest, making an inviting gesture, and said, "Future Queen Ravana, are you willing to go forward with me?"

"willing."
