Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 184: Coronation Ceremony (Part 1)

Almost ten days after the envelope was sent, the three lords' replies arrived in Nord City one after another, and they were placed on Richard's desk in the Palace of Hipolito.

It was not much different from Richard’s expectations. Urif, the nearest to the Republic of Cunha, refused his surrender. The news of the death was furious, and he vowed to bring the coalition forces of the Republic of Cunha and the Principality of Lasik to crush Richard and avenge his friends.

Frederick, Earl of Primei, accepted the surrender with pleasure and personally took the heir to Nord City to meet Richard. Through the communication with the old earl, Richard learned about the strength of the Prime Minister. During the Jutian administration, Prime Minister was repeatedly suppressed because he chose to stand on the side of the royal family during the coup. All kinds of excuses are taxed more, and Primei led the most troops during the war. Therefore, the current Primer collar can be said to be poor and white, and there is no way to provide much for the enlistment.

Richard guessed that this was the reason that prompted Frederic to submit to Richard. Even if Frederic did not want to surrender, he would not be able to withstand Richard's anger, so he might as well vote and keep his title.

In addition to the Premi, the Osrig in the northwest of the kingdom also sent envoys to express surrender to Richard. As the former earl of Osrig, Harindabull, died in the siege of Nord, the leader In the turbulent period of the transfer of titles, the new Earl Stein had to surrender.

They are not like Ulifu leading their backs on powerful allies, but fighting on their own. When encountering a powerful opponent like Richard, they will only end if they don't surrender.

...

On January 1, 1112 in the continental calendar, Nord City was under the shroud of cold winter, but the atmosphere in the city was very hot. People from all over the kingdom came here and wanted to witness the six-year-old downfall. The Phoenix Nirvana of the Tuyat Dynasty.

Although there is still a Ulif leader split outside, peace has not yet come to the people living in this land, but this does not affect the restoration of the former dynasty. In order to prevent any bad factors from appearing in this grand coronation ceremony, Richard’s army was standing around the city. Fully armed sergeants could be seen patrolling the streets. A soldier stood a few steps away from the wall. The city’s security has never been better than ever, and even the ruffians and hooligans that were often seen on weekdays have disappeared.

In addition to strengthening security in the city, Richard also appointed Danish Lieutenant Toola Gris to lead 10,000 Danish troops to station on the road from Urif to Nord City, to prevent the little Enskesar from getting hot in his head and carrying his pitifulness. The conscripts attacked Nord City. Although Richard was not worried about the attack by Ulif’s army, he did not want to see his coronation ceremony destroyed.

In the coronation ceremony held in the city of Nord, in addition to the newly descended nobles in the Kingdom of Winster, there were also the messengers of the Kingdom of Lavana, the messengers of the Kingdom of Ramirez, and the messengers of the Kingdom of Falnik. It is mentioned that the small island nation of Riyadh where Richard stopped during his expedition to the Kingdom of Farnik many years ago. The Riyadh Republic has become more poor and weak, and can only seek asylum from Richard) also sent the deputy speaker of the National Assembly of the country to celebrate.

Although the Kingdom of Ravana was not the Queen Stephanie, whom Richard wanted to come, she sent a friend Douglas, whom Richard had not seen for many years, and Douglas was lucky. He was sent to other countries to exercise his abilities and just escaped a catastrophe. However, except for him, his whole family was imprisoned and executed by Bandak.

Now Douglas is no longer what he used to be. He has become very calm. It can be seen that the tragedy of his family's massacre has made him a lot more mature.

Of course, after the ceremony is over with Douglas, as the sun goes up three poles, a long and high bell rang suddenly, and it rang over the city. Then, the exciting horn military music and the festive long orchestra continued. It sounded, mixed into a huge symphonic rhythm, and opened the prelude to Richard's coronation ceremony.

boom! Boom boom boom!

Outside the city, the 18 artillery pieces owned by Richard blasted in unison, making a deafening roar. The sound of the artillery echoed over the entire city. Then, the gates of the Palace of Ippolito were pushed aside by heavily armed pedestrian imperial knights. In the eyes of the guests in the hall, Richard, dressed in full costume, slowly stepped onto the red carpet with nice velvet texture.

What kind of figure is that! Long, lush, golden curly hair hangs behind his head, almost flush with his shoulders, star-like eyes, tightly pressed thin lips, giving a person an incomparable solemnity and sacredness, young, handsome and angular. The fortitude of the face is deeply fascinating, and the heroic vigor between the eyebrows, one can't help but give birth to the idea of ​​surrender and worship!

He wears a long-sleeved underwear made of high-quality linen inside, and a short robe made of purple silk is wrapped around this underwear~lightnovelpub.net~ It is embroidered with beautiful patterns and history with gold silk. Like the earth, the silk here is also expensive, not to mention the purple robes dyed with the same expensive purple dye. On the outside of the short robes, there are several layers of robes of different colors. These robes are inlaid with precious stones. The diamond jewels of China are also embroidered with many exquisite patterns with gold silk. The numerous diamond jewels inlaid on the outer robe exude a dazzling light under the sunlight from the doorway, making Richard look more noble.

Behind Richard are two rows of walking imperial knights wearing half-length plate armor, cross-bucket helmets, and their lower bodies wrapped in battle skirts. These elite knights exude a touch of murderous aura, and the cold steel makes them look even colder. , These twenty elite knights have the same pace, and the neat guards are behind Richard, giving the guests a strong visual impact.

Ta Ta Ta-

At the end of the red carpet, Cardinal Peter Scanrell, dressed in a black and white priest’s robe, holding a well-decorated "Bible" and a priest’s scepter, looked solemn and looked at Richard, who was slowly approaching, watching him. Next, Richard stopped when he was only one step away from him, and knelt on one knee, his head slightly hanging down.

"This was chosen by God, and appointed by King Alfonso, the most legitimate heir to the Kingdom of Winster. It was him who led a powerful army to overthrow the usurper Jutian; it was him who restored the Stuart family in Winster. The rule of the Kingdom of St. Stewart; he is the darling of God, Richard, the unquestioned ruler of the kingdom!"

As soon as the cardinal's voice fell, thunderous applause and cheers suddenly sounded in the hall. Although most of the people present were faithful believers of Magic Deer, this did not prevent them from cheering and celebrating with the Christians in the hall.

Then came the most critical moment!
