Richard I (I,11September 8, 57-11April 6, 99), also known as the lion psychological check, was the second king of the Plantagenet Dynasty in England. His rule was from 1 189. He was also the Duke of Normandy (known as Richard IV).
Richard lived in aquitaine with his mother Eleanor when he was a teenager. 1 168 was made Duke of Aquitaine. His eldest brother died and Richard became heir to the throne. 1188-1189 He colluded with Philip II, king of France, and opposed his father Henry II's appointment of his youngest son John as the crown prince, and successfully seized the throne.
Richard is a monarch who can fight. The Islamic hero Saladin captured Jerusalem shortly after he ascended the throne, which shocked the Christian world in Europe. 1 190, together with Philip ii, launched the third crusade. 1 19 1 year, Cyprus was occupied and Ake was captured with the French army. When he marched into Jerusalem, he was resisted by Saladin and failed. However, the sentiment and demeanor between him and Saladin that heroes cherish heroes is still passed down as a beautiful talk by later generations.
11In September 1992, Richard negotiated with Saladin on the condition that Christians could freely enter and leave Jerusalem. Richard was captured by Austrian Duke Leopold V the Virtuous and handed over to the Holy Roman Emperor Henry VI. Henry VI imprisoned him in the castle of Sanye Mountain. Legend has it that during his detention, Henry VI once threw him into a room with lions, hoping that he would be eaten by them. Unexpectedly, Richard stepped forward, put his hand into the lion's throat, took out the lion's heart, and ate it raw in public, hence the name Richard, the king of the lion's heart.
In Richard's absence, political affairs were managed by Hubert Walter, Archbishop of Canterbury. With the help of Elena, Richard I's mother, and the mediation of many parties, Henry VI agreed that Britain would redeem Richard I with 1 194. There was a deep contradiction between Britain and France at that time. When Richard I came back, he was ready to go to war with King Philip II of France. The king of France was no match in the military, but the huge expenses of the war led to the 1 196 London anti-tax uprising.
Richard himself doesn't know English, and his time in England is very short. Because he fought everywhere and was captured, his rule brought a heavy financial burden to the British people. But his own style is full of medieval chivalry and is deeply loved by the British people. In addition, due to his long absence, the English nobility gained greater power, which indirectly contributed to the emergence of the magna carta of England in the future.
Richard married Belengali of Navarra, but they had no children. This marriage was therefore suspected by some historians, and some even said that Richard had a homosexual relationship with King Philip II of France who participated in the Third Crusade together.
Richard's iron-blooded man and his mythical experience of just 42 years have been widely circulated all over the world for more than 800 years, which is amazing, admirable and even full of admiration. Of course, he will also be cursed by his enemies and pagans.
Richard I is famous for his courage, perseverance, boldness and resourcefulness. He is one of the most famous knight kings in Europe. His life was full of successive conflicts, from fighting with his father and brother, to leading the Crusades, to smashing his younger brother to usurp power, confronting King Philip II of France and quelling the rebellion. From birth to death, he was such a legend. He is really like an ambitious and fearless lion, constantly screaming.
This is another version of the story about the origin of Lion Heart King.
On the morning of September 8, A.D. 1 157, clouds of dark clouds, large and small, rolled in the sky. For example, countless dark horses gather together to fight to the death. Lightning opened the gloomy sky and gave off dazzling white light, which caused bursts of thunder to roll over Oxford, the ancient capital of England, from far and near.
Suddenly there was a baby crying. This cry came from a bedroom in the British Palace, from the mouth of the newborn little richard.
Little richard's mother Eleanor suddenly calmed down from three days and three nights of heartbreaking pain and stopped crying and shouting. She gently wiped away her tears and looked at the child who was still covered in blood. She couldn't see the lightning outside the window or hear the thunder rolling over the palace. She felt that the child's loud cry was like a lingering love song. This made her smile and ecstatic.
Eleanor closed her eyes wearily and suddenly thought of her son's future. The smile on her face suddenly disappeared.
Eleanor knows very well that the child Richard can hardly be the heir to the British royal family, because he already has a younger brother, little Henry, who is not only six years old, but also looks handsome and calm, so Richard may be just a duke or earl, with a principality and a country, but she will never be content with it.
Eleanor immediately thought of her husband, Henry II, and quickly sent someone to report the good news to him-at this time he was fighting the French king Louis VII.
According to the usual ideal, as King Henry II of England who has been crowned for three years, he must be English. In fact, he, his father and his ancestors are all French.
Henry II was born in 65438 AD. His father is the Earl of Anjou in France, and his name is Godfrey. Mother is the daughter of King Henry I, and his name is Matilda. Henry II is handsome, resolute, civil and military, and has many legendary stories, which are well known and loved by his parents since childhood.
1 150, through the efforts of his father Godfrey, 17-year-old Henry became the Duke of Normandy, and the following year, after his father died, he got the title of Earl of Anjou. "Anjou" is a regional name in northwest France. It was named after the ancient Gaul tribe Andekai. Bohai Kingdom was formed in the 9th century, and Tuling and Man were merged in 1044 and110, occupying a larger area. Henry's ambition was brought into play from then on, and he soon became the overlord of the western half of France through marriage and alliance, and also owned aquitaine, poitiers, Turing, Gascony and other places. It is closer to England.
1 153, Henry led a great army into England. At this time, the king of England was Stephen, who was the nephew of King Henry I of England. Henry I died childless in 1 135, and a big noble embraced him to succeed to the throne. Henry's mother, Matilda, and King David I of Scotland joined forces to dispatch troops and have been fighting for years. The arrival of Henry's elite commander made Stephen's rule even more precarious. 1 154, Stephen died of internal and external troubles. Henry is the same. As the grandson of King Henry I of England, with the support of his mother Mathilde, he was crowned King of England, thus creating the Plantagenet Dynasty (named after the Plantagenet Dynasty was often inserted in the hat of Henry's father Godfrey), which spanned Britain and France and was called the "Anjou Empire".
However, this aroused the strong dissatisfaction and jealousy of King Louis VII of France, and sent troops to recover the former French possessions that Henry II brought to Britain. There is also a personal factor in this protracted war, that is, Eleanor, now Queen of Henry II, was originally the Queen of Louis VII.
Eleanor is the heir to the Duke of Aquitaine. At that time, the duke was the highest title of the nobility, ranking second only to the king and owning the principality. L 'Aquitaine, the name of southwest France, was originally confined between the Garonne River and the Pyrenees. Its inhabitants are Beric and Celtic, and it was conquered by Roman general Caesar in 56 BC. At the beginning of the second century, the territory of L 'Aquitaine extended to the Loire River, and was occupied by Visigoths at the beginning of the fifth century. It was merged into the Frankish kingdom in 507 and became a principality in 670.
In 65438 AD, Eleanor, the heir to the Duke of Aquitaine, married French King Louis VII. However, after marriage, Eleanor and Louis VII have been on bad terms. This is related to Louis VII's ugly face and a pimple on her face, but more importantly, his withdrawn personality is just the opposite of her cheerful enthusiasm. He failed to make her pregnant and satisfy her desire to have a son, and he did not let other concubines have children, although he never forgot to treat him, which made her feel heartfelt disgust and contempt. What Jeanlouis VII couldn't bear was that in the past two years, Eleanor often praised Henry, Duke of Normandy and Earl of Anjou, for being young and promising, and kept mocking his incompetence in words and tone. In this way, after fifteen years, they divorced in the summer of 1 152.
Thirty-year-old Eleanor returned to her own territory-aquitaine, thinking of Henry thirstily, but not sure whether Henry could really fall in love with herself, worrying day and night. Previously, Henry had met her and Louis VII twice, when he became Duke and Earl, and he came to give thanks as usual. The first time we met, she and he, who had heard each other's names for a long time, looked at each other like possessed for a long time and both saw the burning flame of love in each other's eyes.
Henry didn't make Eleanor's fears come true, nor did he make her desire come true. From the moment they first met, he fell in love with this extraordinarily beautiful and elegant woman who looked younger than him, even though she was eleven years older than him (his mother Matilda was eleven years older than his father Godfrey). She often thinks of her and dreams about her in her spare time. After learning that she divorced Louis VII, he quickly sent someone to L 'Aquitaine to send a generous dowry, and in the autumn wind of the same year, Wugu became Huang Shi and married her. Of course, the most important dowry she brought was the vast and rich aquitaine, which made it the territory of the Plantagenet dynasty.
Now that Henry II has become the king of England, of course, he owns all the territory of England. The Duke of Normandy and the Earl of Anjou, once France, controlled most of northwest France. Together with L 'Aquitaine, Gasconi and other places, it became a veritable king of the great empire. At this time, Louis VII, the French Capello dynasty, directly ruled only a small piece of land around Paris. Louis VII originally thought that Eleanor was much older than Henry, and Henry would not marry her as queen. He was very angry when he heard that they were married. When he appeased the Duke and Earl, relying on his powerful army, he launched a war to seize territory from Henry II, with the goal of destroying the Plantagenet Dynasty and occupying everything owned by Henry II, including all his territory. Even Queen Eleanor, who had dreamed of becoming a prisoner, was stripped naked and left in the street to be ravaged by anyone.
Little richard's birth did not arouse the excitement of Henry II, because when he read Queen Eleanor's letter, the war was going on nervously, and the child was not the eldest son. Henry only replied to a letter, in which he gave the child a name and asked Queen Eleanor to take good care of and educate him.
Queen Eleanor is a passionate and intelligent woman. Like all mothers, she has good expectations for her son. She hopes that young Richard will succeed his father as king of England and take charge of the Plantagenet dynasty in the future, although she knows it is very difficult because the traditional custom in western European countries is that the eldest son inherits the throne. However, she believes that her charm can make Henry II change his consistent and ancestral practices, but she also knows that this is only possible with little richard's outstanding talents. She grew up with Richard, and Richard drowned out the thunderous cries at birth and the wisdom he showed before he became sensible. She firmly believed that his talent would give him extraordinary abilities in the future, but she chose the best teacher in the country to teach him literary skills and martial arts.
Little richard is growing. When he was a child, he was clever and naughty, and his courage was amazing.
After he came into this world and cried loudly for a while, he opened his bright eyes and looked at his mother for a while. Suddenly he danced and grinned. Strangely, he never cried again. He began to talk more than a hundred days after he came to this world, and he was able to walk stagger for more than two months. After the meeting, he seldom stayed in his room, ran outside the palace gate from the palace garden, and even sneaked away to a far place outside Oxford.
Oxford is an ancient city with a long history in southern England. By this time, it has been built for more than 200 years and is known as "Athens of England". It is located near the confluence of the Thames and Charwell rivers, 85 kilometers northwest of London. The river bed here is wide and the water potential is slow, so it is named "Oxford" (meaning "a place where cattle can wade across the river").
One summer day when Richard was four years old, he and his younger brother Henry Jr. raced out of the palace to the Chawell River outside the city, followed by several guards. Although little Henry is ten years old, he still lags far behind Richard. When he came to Richard, he was out of breath. Richard pointed at him as a joke, and suddenly he heard chickens chirping in the tree next to him.
The two brothers looked up and soon saw a bird's nest on the branch. Little Henry really wanted to play with the chickens, but when he saw the bird's nest on the branch, he was afraid to go up. He thought that Richard could do nothing, so he bet with Richard that if Richard could take down the bird's nest in the tree, he would always carry Richard back to the palace, otherwise Richard would carry him back. Richard had no time to think, regardless of the guard's stop, and climbed up the tree like a clever cat.
Soon, Richard reached the tree and slowed down. He climbed higher than the branch with a bird's nest and moved to a branch to continue climbing. Because of his weight, the branches dropped sharply, which made him close to the bird's nest. He smiled at the four birds with their mouths open in the nest and teased them with leaves as food.
It was not until little Henry urged him again and again below that Richard carefully held the bird's nest in his hand and lowered his head. The branch he held loosely jumped down and landed firmly on the ground. ...
Richard was fluent in French and Provence when he was four years old. At the age of six, he could write poems and songs and read Latin. At the age of eight, he once laughed at the Latin grammar of an archbishop of Canterbury-this man was famous at that time, but obviously not as good as Richard. Judging from traditional education and cultural accomplishment, Richard was already one of the most learned European princes of his time.
Richard learned to ride a horse soon after he learned to walk. By the time he was five or six years old, he was already proficient in riding and fencing. He often hunts in the Royal Forest on the outskirts of Oxford, wielding swords to assassinate animals of all sizes. This was extremely important for the knight prince at that time. At the age of ten, he was able to command troops to drill on horseback. When Richard was a child and teenager, he was always a participant in direct competition. This contest is like a simulated war, but in fact he is learning to fight. At this time, his favorite weapon is a long-handled tomahawk. He waved a 60-Jin iron-handled axe in both hands and covered himself like gauze, so that he could hit the target more accurately.
Richard has been educated in many ways and likes music very much. He is a friend and patron of many troubadours. He once sponsored them and had a good relationship with a poet named Blandell, who was more than ten years older than him. These poets are good at writing poems and songs, praising the heroic achievements of those knights in the early Middle Ages. Richard was influenced and inspired by these poems and songs in his father's court since he was a child, and he was very respectful and friendly to the authors who made these poems and songs.
After Richard became sensible, Queen Eleanor encouraged him to become an excellent monarch when he grew up. As a man who is interested in conquering the world, Richard also learned to play chess. Chess is a very popular indoor game in Europe in the 12 century. At that time, many people regarded chess as a war game between two small kingdoms. Chess players learn how to be a king's leadership art and how to manage his resources, so to a great extent, chess is regarded as a sport to cope with and overcome challenges.
But one of the reasons why Richard's name was louder and farther spread at that time was the story that happened when he met a lion by chance. It was a spring morning when he was twelve years old. He left Oxford by himself and didn't come back at noon. This made his mother Eleanor very anxious and sent people to look around. In the evening, several court guards finally found him in the mountains more than 30 miles east of the city. First, they heard him snore like a growl. When they reached him, they saw that he was fast asleep and his fist was covered with frozen blood. Then, they found a lion lying not far from him, and its brain was bigger than his.
Richard's feat this time, coupled with his heroic ambition, heroic character and behavior after becoming king of England, made his friends and subordinates, together with his enemies and opponents, unanimously call him "the king with a lion's heart", but the meaning is just the opposite.

Lion heart king: the legacy of the crusaders
Game introduction
"The King with a Lion's Heart" was a masterpiece that was highly anticipated by players to save Black Island in 2003. However, it turns out that this external project is not even a finished product in the end. The production team has written a huge background world for this game. Many designs in the game are really creative, but the team responsible for the specific production of the game lacks the experience of making first-class RPG games.
Judging from the scripts and dialogues in the game files, there are many hasty places in the release of Lion Heart King. The game source file contains a lot of scripts, dialogues and maps that are actually not used at all, which is obviously abandoned because there is not enough production time. It can also be clearly felt in the actual game that the capacity and quality of the first chapter of the game are completely different from those of the following chapters.
Perhaps the members of Black Island can't guess that this game, which can't satisfy anyone, has become the swan song of Black Island. But in the end, we will forgive its final failure, and only remember the grand wish of The Lion Heart King to rewrite medieval history.
