Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 424: Swacici coup

On April 18, 1125 in the continental calendar, Thred, the capital of the Kingdom of Swacici.

Years of peace has made this city-oh no, it made the people of this country forget about war and the distant threat from the Kingdom of Winster. By their side, you can see people from Winster everywhere. The Kingdom’s high-quality goods and the Winster merchants in exquisite costumes, these distant visitors captured the hearts of the Swacci people only with their goods—no, it was the hearts of most Vadasians.

Not only was the people immersed in peace, but the same was true in Lian Thred’s court. After the defeat, King Titos worked hard for a few years, but he was quickly fallen by the beauties offered by the nobles, like him. This kind of middle-aged man is full of energy, but it is also three minutes of heat. After being captured by Beauty, he completely fell into it. He let go of his power and let his cabinet chiefs handle it. The strange thing is that even though the court nobles are fighting for power and gain, they are busy for their own interests. , But the kingdom did not become chaotic because of this, but it was better than King Titos's efforts to govern during those years.

Although the nobles did not dare to speak this matter in front of King Titos, they still laughed at this almost "incompetent" monarch behind their backs. The effect when a person is serious is not as good as when he abandoned it. It also proved his ability.

King Titos gave up, but his adult second prince had other plans. The second prince Karl Axman, who was famous for his military use since childhood, was appointed by his father to be the kingdom’s imperial court. The commander of the Guard, who has mastered more than 500 elite soldiers in the Palace of Fauzis, how eager he is, dreaming that one day he will be able to lead the army on the battlefield for his father and the kingdom, and the prestigious King Winster* *The team played a game, but every time he expressed this in front of his father, he would be yelled at by the drunk king.

Unwilling? There must be some. Not only are they unwilling to continue being imprisoned like a vase in the huge Fauzis Palace, but also unwilling to be cowardly with their father. It was because of his father's weakness that his elder brother was taken as a hostage and sent to Nord City, and he has not returned. It is also because of his father's weakness that the kingdom can only be under threat from the Winsters.

"I must change all of this!" Karl roared in his heart, but he only had these five hundred heavily armed soldiers in his hand. Most of them were young people from the capital nobles, who had a high sense of honor and loyalty. Karl had been with him since he was a child. They lived together and gained the loyalty of most soldiers, but that was not enough. If he wanted to change all of this, he had to get more noble support.

Perhaps it was the gods in the dark that favored Karl Axman, and some nobles who were also unwilling to continue like this took the initiative to approach him and showed him their intentions. Carl was not a brash man with only muscles in his head. He quizzed him wisely and made sure that the other party was not sent by his father to test him. (Actually, he didn’t need to do this because King Titos’s salted fish was famous. Only after that, did they accept the other's kindness and plan together.

Once he entered the cooperation, he also understood the opponent’s power better, which surprised him a bit, because the opponent’s minion’s eyeliner spread throughout Thred City and many places outside the capital. Although the military capabilities are very weak, they are powerful. Networking is enough to make up for all of this. What they lack is a suitable opportunity and a leader who can convince the crowd.

This leader is Karl Axman. As the second prince, he legally has the right to claim the kingdom of Swaczy (of course, his elder brother is more legal, but the prince does not come back all the year round, just Occasionally sent back some letters, so that the nobles can only choose Karl), in his hands also control the imperial army in the court, can control the court and the king as soon as the coup d'état, as long as they control the king, their actions will be successful.

However, the two sides have not reached a consensus on how to exercise the king after controlling it. From the bottom of his heart, Karl still wants his father to continue to be the king and lead the kingdom to become stronger, but the nobles want to overthrow this incompetent king and make more Talented people took their place. The two sides diverged on this point, and they were unable to reach a consensus for a while, and the launch of the coup was postponed.

If they continue to postpone it, it would be a blessing to King Titos, but he should never irritate the dissatisfied nobles. After hearing that a snow-white elk appeared in the kingdom, King Titos instantly remembered a legend in the legend: as long as a snow-white elk is sacrificed to the gods, then the sacrificer will gain endless wealth and wealth in his lifetime. Wisdom, its life will be much longer.

Therefore, he asked all localities to do their best to hunt such an extremely precious white deer, and forcibly ordered the nobles to open up the restrictions on the mountains and forests in the territory, so that hunters and civilians could enter the hunt on their own, which undoubtedly caused an uproar. As we all know, everything in the confinement belongs to the private ownership of the nobles, as well as the resources in the mountains and forests. If the ban is opened to allow civilians to enter, maybe they will take the opportunity to take advantage of it.

However, King Titos was unwilling to withdraw his orders. He still enforced his decree, which caused more and more nobles' backlash. Some radical nobles even summoned the army in the confinement to openly defy the royal family. Command ~www.readwn.com~ The majesty of the royal family fell to the bottom in an instant. Against this background, Carl also lost confidence in his father, his head heated up, and agreed to the nobles' request.

...

When the kingdom became turbulent due to the hunting order, Carl secretly called the soldiers loyal to the imperial army and told them the great things he had to do. The soldiers also understood the king’s mediocrity and agreed to obey the prince’s orders. Contribute to maintaining the stability of the kingdom.

So, on a night when King Titos was immersed in wine, Carl took the soldiers loyal to him to launch a coup, and directly broke into the king’s bedroom and controlled the king who was drinking with the beauties. Then he opened the palace door and released the nobles and them. The private soldiers entered and took down the entire Fauzis Palace in one fell swoop.

Facing the angry King Titos, Carl never dared to face him face-to-face, so he could only let the nobles put his father under house arrest. Then, the nobles united to elect Karl as the new king, abolished the stupid order issued by King Titos, and this relieved the turmoil.

The news of the coup d’état in the kingdom of Swačić quickly spread to the surrounding countries, and was also delivered to Richard’s desk along with the spy network. Looking at the record of the coup d’état in the letter, Richard looked gloomy, but quickly again. There was a smile, he knew that he had an excuse.
