, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of the Empire, Total War!
Because of the Hariand poisoning case, the plan to move the military headquarters to the front was delayed, and the gendarmerie of the Fourth Army became busy, searching and investigating inside and outside the barracks in Amatlia.
The poisoner Yasen has disappeared since the incident. The servants who lived with him never saw him once, which caused the gendarmerie a headache. They guessed Yasen escaped from Amat through some channels. Leah stronghold, either has been killed. The possibility of the former is very small, because the soldiers guarding the entrance did not see Yasen’s figure, and there was no carriage in and out that day; although the latter is the most likely, Yasen’s body has not been found—without a corpse, it’s impossible. Proof of Yasen’s death.
Ulrich was dismissed because of his criminal suspicion and imprisoned in the gendarmerie detention room. This undoubtedly caused an uproar among the soldiers, especially the soldiers of the second company. They never thought that their chief would kill Rome. The murderer of man.
“Chief Ulrich can’t be the murderer!”
“Something must be wrong!”
“Yeah, how could Chief Ulrich poison the Romans? There is not even the slightest connection between them!”
“…”
The soldiers’ doubts sounded one after another. At first they were somewhat restrained, but later, as time passed, Ulrich’s suspicion still remained unsolved, and Yasen’s body was not found. The soldiers began to sit. Unable to stop, the soldiers of the second company gathered to the command post and asked the senior legion and Richard himself willingly, which undoubtedly stimulated the grieving Romans.
As a result, the conflict broke out. The Romans believed that Ulrich was the most suspected murderer. They had a dispute with the soldiers who spoke for him. At first, the two sides were able to maintain verbal disputes, but in the end, they turned into physical conflicts. Although Roman soldiers were a bit more sophisticated than legionaries, they were hard to beat with one punch, and the inferior Romans quickly fell into siege.
The gendarmerie came quickly after hearing the news and dispersed the chaotic crowd, but it was too late for them to come. There were dozens of people lying down in the field, blood stained on the floor, and the Roman soldiers who participated in the brawl were almost wiped out. The individual is hung up, the most serious has fallen into a coma, and the lightest is also slightly injured.
The outbreak of this incident made the contradiction between the Romans and the legionary infantry more acute. Compared to the adjutant Blus himself, he broke into the legion command angrily. Regardless of the identity gap, he questioned Richard, who knew he was ashamed. Just bowed their heads and silently endured it. Although others were dissatisfied, they still stood up and drove Biblus out. In the latter’s eyes, this situation seemed to be their guilty conscience.
When he returned to the station, Biblus summoned all the Romans and told them his guess: Richard wanted to solve them all in this strange place. Harand’s poisoning was just the beginning. This brawl incident was also premeditated. Otherwise, why the military police only arrested some so-called soldiers who participated in the brawl without arresting them all, just to fool them.
Although this speculation is a bit far-fetched, it actually became a reality in the eyes of the angry Romans. The more they thought about it, the more wrong they were, so they hurriedly packed their personal belongings and prepared to leave. Fortunately, Hariand ordered to stay in Port Bell when the war was about to break out. His fleet bypassed the southern tip of the peninsula to cruise to the Osa Sea, wondering if they could help, otherwise their plan to leave would be somewhat difficult.
Thinking of General Hariand’s order, Biblus felt a little sad. He regarded the Romans as his friends, but was so brutally attacked that he only hated that the general’s body was still in the hands of the Fourth Army. They could not let the general’s The corpse returned to his hometown.
However, before leaving, Biblus decided to give Richard an unforgettable revenge. General Hariand could not die in vain, he had to pay a tragic price for Richard.
The next day.
Biblus came to the headquarters again and met Richard. He explained his intentions straightforwardly. He would take the body of General Hariand and the wounded Roman soldiers away, and take the car parked in the port of Luctos. The fleet returns home. This is Biblus’ last attempt. If Richard is willing to surrender the body (previously not to investigate the cause of death) and the wounded soldiers, it would be great. If not, then He had no choice but to give up.
Fortunately, Richard readily agreed. He can understand the feelings of the Roman soldiers who lost their generals. The relationship between the two parties has long been broken in the previous brawl. Instead of continuing to let them stay, it is better to let them go. , To avoid further intensification of contradictions.
However, Richard did not expect that shortly after the Romans left, a series of fierce gunshots sounded in the backyard of the command headquarters. The gunshots attracted everyone’s attention to the past. After the gunshots ended, a guard was over. The soldier stumbled in, his body was stained with a lot of blood, one arm was shot, and he fell powerlessly.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing that the Guards soldiers were so badly injured, Richard was taken aback and asked quickly.
The soldier didn’t seem to feel the pain in his arm, his face was pale, and said: “Your Majesty, we were attacked by the Romans, princess, the princess was taken away by them!”
Slap–
“what!?”
Richard yelled out of silence, ignoring the pen that fell on the ground. He stared at the soldier with wide eyes, and said in a hurry, “Do you know what you are talking about? Soldier!”
“Yes, Your Majesty.” The soldier swallowed hard, and the blood dripping from his arm made his face paler. “The Romans attacked very fiercely. Our people didn’t react at all. We were all shot. Kill, they will directly take away Princess Elizabeth playing in the backyard. If the nearby patrol team hadn’t come after hearing the news, even the Queen would be taken away.”
“!!!”
Richard only felt a sharp pain in his chest~www.mtlnovel.com~ His throat was sweet, and scarlet blood spurted out. He stretched out his hand to grasp something, but the high-speed rotating brain quickly made him lose consciousness. It was dark in front of him and fell to the ground.
Before he lost consciousness, he heard the screams of the soldiers in a daze.
…
By the time Richard woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day. He saw Rudolph with a frustrated look at first sight. The commander of the Fourth Army had lost his previous vitality, and his lips were white. , The eye sockets were slightly sunken, and Richard was a little frightened to see.
“Your Majesty, are you awake?”
Seeing Richard wake up, Rudolph said hoarsely.
“Yeah.” Richard responded with a voice from his nasal cavity. He thought of Elizabeth who had been taken away. His heart was tense. He just wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Rudolph. The latter gave a wry smile and said: “Your Majesty, I’m sorry that our people were not able to recover the Princess. The Romans set ambush and shot dead the cavalry brigade we were pursuing and snatched their horses. Now they are nowhere to be found…”
