Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 486

"Your Majesty Caesar."

Watching Richard walk in, the soldiers standing guard in the tower hurriedly saluted and greeted him.

After Richard officially established the Holy Roman Empire, he stipulated that the emperor of the empire should be called Caesar, so people also call him His Majesty Caesar.

"Yeah." Richard glanced at the soldier's cheeks flushed from the cold. There is only a small brazier in the tower that can radiate warmth, but this is not enough to dispel the cold indoors.

"How do you feel? Have you noticed anything?" He reached out and put his hand on the icy tower guardrail, feeling the icy cold of his hand, frowning slightly, he asked.

"Report, nothing was found." The soldier replied, his breathing was a bit short, and he was able to talk to the emperor above him.

Hearing this, Richard nodded. In this cold weather, it is obvious that Kuyawi's army cannot initiate a war on its own initiative. Their soldiers must now hide in the camp.

"Keep on guard," he said, and patted the young soldier on the shoulder at the same time. "Although the enemy will not provoke a war in a short time, we still have to remain highly vigilant."

"Yes!"

The soldier stood up straight and replied loudly. He didn't notice that his voice seemed a little high. Richard was taken aback when he listened to his voice, but he quickly understood the reason. He chuckled and continued to walk out. tower.

Walking out of the tower, the oncoming cold wind seemed to be even more piercing. In the northern part of the peninsula in December, even if you wear several layers of thick coats, you can feel the piercing cold. In this kind of weather, people in northern Vadacia Hidden in their respective homes and hugged their relatives to warm up in front of the fire. All avoidable outings were cancelled as much as possible. This is also one of the few times that people can take vacations in a year.

It is also because of some kind of force majeure that most people in the north have their birthdays from September to October of the following year, which has become a topic of interest among later historians.

Keke, it's far away.

The cold wind on his face was really painful. Richard did not dare to stay outside anymore. He put on the hood of the overcoat, covering most of his face in the hood, with several guards behind him. The soldiers hurried to their camp. The soldiers who had gathered outdoors also fled back to their respective camps. The fire pits piled up with stones were nowhere to be seen, except for the black coke that had been burnt on the ground and the blossoming snowflakes that fell from the sky.

"Tsk." Richard chuckled softly and dodged into his camp. Snow flew in with his footsteps. When he encountered the heat wave, he was instantly melted. Richard only felt a heat wave hit and rescued him from the cold, and could not help but shiver comfortably. This is really a dual world of ice and fire. Richard murmured in his heart, he glanced at the soldiers following him to keep warm, but he still didn't take off his coat immediately.

Sitting on the main seat, Richard was enveloped in a warm coat of animal skins. He glanced at the densely flowered map on the table and felt a little pain in his head. Before he reached out to rub his temples, he saw the people outside the camp. The door curtain was suddenly opened, and a man in a coat walked in quickly, and while reaching out to pat the snowflakes falling on him, Richard only felt that the temperature in the camp was lowered by him, and his brows could not help but frowned slightly. .

After a while, the temperature rose again, and the appearance of the man appeared in front of Richard. It turned out to be a staff officer of the First Army. Richard's frowned brows eased and he looked at The young staff officer's slightly anxious face said, "What happened, Colonel Angulo."

"Your Majesty Caesar, our scouts reported a movement about Kuyavian's army, which is of great importance, so I rushed to report to you."

"What's the matter?" As soon as it heard that it was a major event, Richard sat up straight, put his hands on the table, and asked: "Tell me carefully."

"Yes, Your Majesty Caesar." Called Angulo's adviser, and after considering his remarks, he said: "Our scouts found that a group of Kuyavian infantry with about 1,000 men was approaching the third. In the brigade’s position, each of them was dressed in white camouflage. It seemed that they were trying to conceal their whereabouts, but they were still discovered by our scouts. They crossed the border and hid in a dense forest. This is the current situation. The follow-up scouts are still tracking the rewards so far."

After finishing speaking, the staff officer looked at Richard, paused, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty Caesar, do you remember the spy nets installed in the Holy Kuyavian Empire?"

"What's the matter?" Richard asked with a frown when he suddenly mentioned this.

"The spy network once reported a piece of information. In order to deal with the cold winter, the Kuyavian people formed an army dedicated to fighting in the winter. Their number and fighting are unknown. They can be said to be the most mysterious force in the Kuyavian Empire. "

Speaking of this, Angulo's words stopped, because Richard was already lost in thought, he closed his mouth wisely, not wanting to disturb Richard's thoughts.

After a long time, Richard raised his head, looked at Angulo, and said: "Colonel Angulo, in my name, oh no, in the name of the military headquarters, order the officers and soldiers of the Third Brigade into a state of war. Increase the level of security, and at the same time strengthen patrols in the Konge Kingdom in units of companies, and don't let the Kuyawi army sneak into the back of our army to take advantage of the loopholes ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Follow your orders, Your Majesty Caesar." Angulo promised Dao, he was about to turn around and leave, but Richard stopped him again at this time: "Colonel Angulo, you personally take the order to the third brigade station."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

...

After Angulo left, Richard cast his gaze on the map spread out on the table. He was a little helpless. It seemed that the Kuyavians could no longer hold back, although these were the coldest months in a year. However, they are obviously more resistant to freezing than the Vadasians living in the north, and they are specially trained to fight against the cold winter. For the Holy Roman Emperor who has been hiding in the camp and reporting to the group to keep warm. For the ** team, it's a very tricky existence.

This army that can resist the cold winter makes Richard feel like a throat. They can cut off the supply line of the frontline army at any time, or harass the villages and supply warehouses in the rear, or directly destroy the Holy Roman Emperors on the front line. It can be said that as long as they want, there are many ways to get Richard's army into trouble.

At this moment, Richard deeply felt the powerlessness of the lack of an army capable of fighting in the winter.
