We will continue on the great adventure of a true hero of Mother Europe.
So we're gonna get straight into it in episode 2, Return of the Dragon.
Boom.
As he paced the streets of the Moldavian capital, Brahula mused over his plan to reclaim his kingdom.
As the mysterious old man paused, I rose up to take another slab of venison.
The old man stared into the fire, watching the flames dance as if they were soldiers involved in a raging battle.
His eyes flashed again as a thought entered his mind, and he grasped the majestic old soul.
Meanwhile, Sultan Mehmet II had ascended to the Ottoman throne.
Drakula loathed Mehmed from that time in Ederne, and he knew that the Turks would be a thorn in his side for years to come.
In 1453, they had conquered Constantinople, but they were presently occupied with campaigns in Greece and Serbia.
Bogdan II, Drafula's cousin and the new voevod of Moldavia, had heard of his kinsman's plight and offered his help.
If Drakula could cross the Carpathian mountains into Transylvania and ally with Hungary, then they could launch a three-pronged assault on Vladislav II and the Turks.
Alright, so another epic introduction.
And when I say Order of the Dragon, that is exactly the sort of mythic mindset we need to have going forward.
It makes everything so much more epic.
So anyway, we have Vladrakula must survive.
Makes sense.
And then we have hints.
I'll just read through this.
Okay, so his new technology tree is now Magiar.
See?
You can have a friendship between Hungarians and Romanians.
It's the only way forward.
Bran Castle, legendary.
And again, Hungary will offer an alliance if you can show your strength by reaching the Imperial Age.
Alright, so I utilized a little edit there.
And just look at the graphics here.
Absolutely Wonderful desire from humble Mondavia.
What do I desire?
This is a birthright.
This is Bolkbra.
He's bloatmaxing now.
Bogdan.
Alright, let's to the northwest in the Transylvania forest lies the Bronze Castle, a stronghold of the Order of the Dragon.
You will find supporters there.
The Order of the Dragon.
That has to be a title for a chrome for a coming training video or a Vilehunt challenge or something like that.
Too cool of a name to not use for anything productive.
Okay, let us out then.
Now, let me tell you about my glorious weekend in the service of the nation.
So, first, Uppsala met some good lads, had a great training session.
Shout out to all who were there.
It was absolutely joyous.
Then, the next day, I went to the opposite side of Sweden to Jatobori, Gothenburg, met some good men, some good men from America and Switzerland as well.
Shout out to you, it was a joyous session and day.
Then, after oh damn, that's a uh that is a brutal watchtower.
Um anyway, then I went to El Garos, it's called a small little place in between Jatobori and Stockholm, and I held a self-defense seminar.
It was quite fun because it was not my usual demographics, it was more females and it was more older individuals.
So, yeah, that was a new teaching experience, and when you teach, you learn yourself as well.
Okay, let's try to box with this Vladislavians.
See what I'm doing now?
I'm micromanaging so that they're chasing Vlad and my knights can hit the spearmen.
So, anyway, that was my weekend.
It oh getting mugged by these archers, but cavalry strong against archers.
So, yes, that was my weekend in short terms.
I did film some of the training, which will up for a Fusique Manufacturum training video log.
So, yeah, links in the description for that.
Some well, mainly tie boxing videos, some bag work and some pad work.
Good times.
Then, of course, I posted a short version on my Instagram as well if you haven't already seen that.
Now, also on a nesty force blocks the mountain pass.
Hmm, all right.
If you were to slay the Dineshti general in command of the forward camp, it may draw the attention of the army and lure them away.
Right, let's do it.
Um...
I think I have mismanaged this start a little bit, but um oh Denesti general.
Okay, I will try to manage this anyway.
Go on, die.
Ah, no, No, I um.
Ah, come on then Vlad.
No, that was one misclick, one misclick.
I um.
If I die now, I will have to restart everything and restart the usurper to his grave.
Okay, a bit of chaos there.
Uh, where did Vlad go?
Even I hope he did he die.
Maybe.
That would have been extremely silly if this episode was off to such a bad start.
Yes, I do think Vlad has died, but we can just pretend that he is wounded or something like that and we'll continue on.
So yes, I was playing the historic battles and I played the conquest of Cyprus by Richard The Lionheart, and this was one of the well, when you win the scenario.
This came up and I was very happy to see that you had some uncocked view of him.
Usually you would have something of the sort like oh he's, he was such a brutal.
So I was pleasantly surprised by the way they described it, described him as a legend, instead of having the need to portray him as some brutal king who only cared about glory, who only cared about glory.
So that was refreshing to see.
I tip my pickle hub again to H V Empires, so I suppose I will utilize a few edits in this video because it looks like it might be a a long campaign, but I will check in in a little bit.
Okay, so Bran Castle recruits paladins for us, highly epic, and again it looks so great and it captures the feel of mountainous region here.
Now I suppose I will have to mine, and then we'll have to hit the Imperial Age, so the Hungarians will admire our strength, so they can be our allies.
So basically, what I have now, since I have so much cavalry, I have to look out for their spearmen, of course, and being more mobile than the enemy makes it easier to avoid the spearmen.
so that is that's good now I found a mining camp nearer to the town center so we can chop some not chop a mine I mean of course So anyway, what did I train today, you ask?
I trained after a hectic weekend, as I said, of a lot, a lot of driving.
I was quite wrecked from just driving so much.
I trained some push press and some light bench press.
So that was my training session.
And I have seen this Moldavians.
A little nice outpost here.
Unfortunately, they're being attacked.
Maybe I can aid them with my knight here if I can sink the ship.
Okay, I will probably die there, so I sacrificed him for a good cause.
So what we can do now also is actually first and foremost we need some wood.
Otherwise our farms will expire.
So just continuing to gather resources, gonna create some more knights.
We had three more paladins incoming and then I will just gather enough stone so we can build a castle here so that we are safe and then we can upgrade to the Imperial Age.
And again, if I wasn't clear with what I meant with the Richard the Lionheart thing is I found it so refreshing that they could just state this man was a legend and point to the positive things without having to talk about the fact that oh this guy didn't spend so much time in England so he was a bad king.
It's nice when people can just be positive.
Point out the good things instead of having to nuance it all too much.
Of course nuance is good sometimes but sometimes it can also be nice to give it a rest.
Right, so I just noticed that we can't actually build a castle but we need to build something fun at least to upgrade.
So I suppose we'll have to build a monastery and aha right.
Yeah, so a university, I suppose, we can build, too.
The order of the dragon is decadent and feeble.
My cover, trample you in.
Decadent and feeble.
Well...
Well we will see about that dear Vladislav.
I challenge you to come to box with these high Thumus lads.
We can build a monk as well to heal our gallant soldiers.
Just gonna wait for this to be built then we can upgrade and initiate an alliance with Hungary.
Boom.
There we are.
Alright.
That sounds good, dear old Hungary.
Let's do it.
It's the only reasonable course of action.
And as you can see, we couldn't build a castle, but I have built a lot of watchtowers instead.
And now I will also upgrade our cavalry to cavalier.
So we have paladins and cavaliers.
And we need to pay Hungary a thousand in food.
Then we can upgrade this, which reduces the fill for tributes to 20%.
Boom, let's do it.
Alright, we have gathered enough food, so we will pay it to Hungary.
Boom.
There we go.
Confirm.
Excellent!
We fight with you!
Very good indeed.
They didn't have all too much of an army, though.
But I suppose it is all good, anyway.
Now we can't build trebuchets anywhere, which is of course blasphemous, but it is what it is.
I will ride out with the Order of the Dragon and see if we can kill some enemies.
Vladislav, you are a traitor.
Now we'll hunt you down.
Can perhaps raid this little village.
It looks quite cozy though, so I'm not all too comfortable with actually destroying it.
But there is a relic.
Maybe we can take it with one of our monks.
Aha, you can actually fight for this village.
That's nice.
Cool stuff.
Now, let's see.
Down here, I suppose, is where Vladislav is hold up.
We can't create a castle, build a castle, but perhaps we can build some sort of other fun thing, such as a sig workshop or something similar.
There comes a trebuchet.
Speaking of which, I will see if I can hunt it down.
Stumble upon a little fleet there.
Need to run away.
Can capture this little place, I suppose.
Aha, we can't build any military buildings at all.
That's problematic.
I suppose.
Perhaps we can build some sort of town center here.
Somewhere?
No, can't really do that.
We can build a watchtower.
Now, where were we here?
Hello, battering rams.
Elit Boyar, they're quite cool.
Cool aesthetics on those.
have to defeat this tower.
Right, we have raised this little base to the ground.
Had to do it to them.
Was the only reasonable course of action.
And there was a little bug, I suppose.
It came up onto land.
Aha, they're signing our Moldovan friends here.
if we can figure out some way to deal with that he likes to trash talk this guy Which I kinda like.
It adds a bit of spice to the story, I suppose.
Aha!
They ran out of gold, so I need to build a new mine there.
So if we could just get some more villagers down here.
There we go.
So I can build these towers.
So we can deal with this flilt.
Aha!
We have finally found a castle.
Nice.
Recurve bow.
Cavalry archers have one plus in range and one plus in damage, but I want to build some Chebuchet.
Alright, I have assembled mighty force that I will lesie to the castle here.
So we'll see how that goes.
And, yeah, this little sea battle goes, well, somewhat according to plan, at least.
Hello, lads.
Now we just have to defend this trebuchet at all costs.
Right, here we are.
So as you might have noticed, I've utilized a few edits this episode, but now since we're nearing the end of the episode, I suppose I will be talkative.
Now we just have to make sure that our Chebuches do not get wrecked here as we lay siege to Vladislav, the trash talkers.
Stronghold.
So anyway, on another note, on a note of making videos, I do have quite a few interesting, well I hope at least, videos incoming.
going to talk about game changers.
It's a vegan...
Well, you could perhaps say propaganda piece.
They're talking about vegan athletes.
But anyway, I will talk more about that.
Then I will talk about mewing and mouthbreeding.
Because they are interlinked.
And then some more training videos.
So yeah, I have a good few videos incoming.
Now, Vladislav, you will regret your foul words.
See if he's in here.
No.
Hmm.
Strange.
Maybe he has fled into the town center.
Or perhaps even to this little outpost.
Hmm, who knows?
So I was about to utilize an edit, then get back to it, but he died in the midst of the chaos.
Let's leave the map and look at the scene.
The elderly man gave a thin smile.
The nascity of mind can compensate for other disadvantages.
As Drachula slaughtered untold numbers of enemy troops, the large circle of impaled men outside Dargavista grew to awe and disgust families from a mixed...
Drachula owned Valachia once more, but it was not the land he's forbearsled.
Barred from endless wars, it was rife with corruption, crime, and poverty.
Aghast, I asked my host how Drakula managed to reform a ruined shell of a country so quickly.
The light flashed across the old man's eye again.
Drakula despised dishonesty and crime and sought to eliminate it.
He knew that Valeria had to become strong enough to face its enemies and soon.
And so, his reforms began a heroic man, no doubt.
So, yes, that will have to be the episode.
And in next, we'll go to the breath of the dragon.
And yeah, I utilized quite a few edits, but I hope the episode was good enough anyway.
So, thank you for watching and stay tuned for coming videos.
