In addition to the Marquis of Futao, there was also a marquis who was captured - the Marquis of Chongshan, the Order of Elton Golden Ju.

The Golden Ju Medal family belongs to the old Marquis family, and the territory is adjacent to the fief of the Marquis of Nutao, but compared to the Marquis of Nutao, who has the strength of a domain knight, the forty-year-old Marquis Chongshan only has the strength of a sword saint.

The surname Medal of the Golden Chrysanthemum is derived from a potion flower, the Medal Chrysanthemum, and the family's coat of arms is a round medallion in the shape of a chrysanthemum.

The Marquis of Elton was not only captured himself, but the knight class of the realm was almost wiped out.

At that time, he gathered all his followers into his castle of Golden Chrysanthemum, and prepared to hold the castle until the opening order ended, so that after Sapphire crashed through the castle, none of the noble knights escaped. His fiefdom alone contributed four counts, twelve viscounts, and a large number of knights.

"Your Highness, Elton has little choice, most of his family's wealth has been plundered by the Knights, and he and his followers cannot pay the ransom they have paid at all. ”

Speaking Marquis Di Maria Yuhuashi of the Angry Waves.

In Liszt's study in the castle of the bull's hoof, the first person he summoned was the Marquis of Nutao, who had clearly regarded himself as a follower as an old acquaintance, and the Marquis of Nutao enjoyed the treatment of acting freely.

The two of them drank tea across the desk, and the atmosphere was very friendly.

At the beginning, the Marquis of Nu Tao lived on Black Horse Island for a short period of time, and he loved the drink of green tea, and since then, he and the Flame Collar have been secretly smuggling sea salt, glass, white paper and other goods, and the Yuhuashi family has already separated from the Eagle Kingdom, and it is normal to sway to the Flame Kingdom.

"Marquis Di Maria, if the surrender is successful, what kind of treatment do you think the Golden Ju Medal family deserves from me?" asked Liszt casually.

Di Maria said with a smile: "Your Highness, there is actually a good way to quickly subdue the Golden Ju Medal family. ”

"Oh, let's hear it. ”

"Elton has a younger brother named Elroy, who is only a viscount and is only thirty years old, but he is already a veteran sword master, and he is not far from complete. It was only because of Elton's suppression that he was unable to be promoted to earl, and Elton acted absurdly and Elroy acted calmly. ”

Speaking of which, Di Maria's meaning is self-evident.

The two brothers, Elton and Elroy, are both sword masters, but it is obvious that Elroy has more outstanding talent and a more calm personality, and is more suitable to be the patriarch of the family and inherit the position of marquis.

Liszt can use the reason of adoption to raise Elroy to the position of marquis, and Elroy will definitely be grateful to Liszt and control the Golden Chrysanthemum family.

But Liszt didn't plan to do that.

He smiled faintly: "The Yuhuashi family can be saved, but the Golden Ju Medal family can't be saved, as long as Elton is willing to surrender, I can keep his marquis position after the founding of the country." But his followers form new families on their own, and Elroy is no different. ”

"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Di Maria did not understand Liszt's intentions for a moment.

"The Flame Kingdom is a new country, and the old power needs to be broken, not to prevent the family from growing, but to create more families to assist me in ruling the vast land of the Fire Isles. ”

"I see, Your Highness. ”

Di Maria made sense: "It is true that the new kingdom needs too many nobles and knights...... In fact, when you come to this land, even if Your Highness does not split the family, those powerful noble knights will take the initiative to leave, Your Highness, the Yuhuashi family is also willing to split. ”

"Huh?"

"My followers and knights, I will dismiss them one by one, including my nephew Deborah Yuhuashi. Now that I have come to the newborn kingdom, I hope that the Yuhuashi family can also be reborn in this land and completely integrate into the flame kingdom. ”

Liszt smiled and bowed: "You are a noble who understands things, don't worry, follow me, the Yuhuashi family will only continue to grow, not decline." The population of the territory is small, but there will be a steady stream of wars in the future, plundering enough people to replenish the losses of the major families. ”

......

When the second marquis, the Elton Golden Ju Medal, was summoned, Di Maria did not leave, and he had already been recognized by Liszt as an assistant to the co-opted knights.

"Elton, you and I have known each other for a long time, and I have clearly told you what Your Highness meant, even if you don't split up, you won't have a ransom to ransom your followers. And you can also see the growth of the Flame Kingdom and the decline of the Eagle Kingdom, so I hope you can think clearly about how to choose. ”

After listening to Di Maria's words.

Elton glanced at Liszt, who had no expression on his face and was just allowed Di Maria to surrender, without getting any friendly message.

As Liszt, there is no need to smile at any nobleman.

They were all prisoners of war, and they were left to his disposal - either pay the ransom and leave, or surrender and offer their loyalty, there was no other way to choose, and if it were not for the sake of the great nobles, even Liszt's face would not necessarily be seen.

"However, if the followers of the family are split, how will the Golden Ju Order family develop?"

"Serve the kingdom within three years, cultivate the land for His Highness, and after three years, divide the territory, and the Golden Ju Medal family can naturally rely on the divided territory to rise again. ”

"How can you rise without knights?"

Di Maria said: "In three years, there will definitely be a large number of knights who cannot be knighted, and you can naturally recruit these knights to serve your family." ”

"And what about my elves?"

"The elves are still yours, but they need to serve for three years...... Either you pay the price of a few elves and return to your territory in the Eagle Kingdom and continue to be free, or if you have a lot of wealth in your territory, you can also pay the ransom for your followers who are willing to go back. Your Highness has always been tolerant of nobles and respects your wishes. ”

Elton may have mediocre talents and absurd behaviors, but after all, he came from a large aristocratic family, and his calculation of interests is instinctive.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded calmly and said, "In this case, I am willing to follow behind His Highness, the Golden Ju Medal family originally thought that His Highness would serve." ”

......

Following the two marquises, Liszt summoned two more nobles individually.

One is the Perfect Level Sky Knight of the Earl's Title, Jeffrey Fleur Aoi, who promised at least one marquis title after the founding of the country, and Jeffrey happily followed, and the other was the Order of Elroy Golden Chrysanthemum, the thirty-year-old Sword Saint has a good talent and is about to be consummated, and he directly expressed his willingness to follow without Listedo's words.

Thereafter, at the dinner party.

Liszt invited all the seven counts who had not yet chosen to pay the ransom to the table, and personally surrendered and recruited them. In the midst of hesitation, six counts finally announced their following, and only one earl of the ordinary level of sky knight thought for a long time and decided to pay the ransom.

So far.

Titles aside.

This time the Pioneer Order, Liszt directly subdued one Realm Knight, one Consummation-level Sky Knight, five Swordmaster-level Sky Knights, and twenty-five Ordinary Rank Sky Knights. and more than 800 elite Earth Knights, more than 3,800 ordinary Earth Knights, and more than 7,600 trainee Knights.

None of these knights' elves Liszt were collected, but were only required to serve for three years.

The number of elves he could get was provided by the four earls who paid the ransom, a total of seven elves, and according to the requirements, at least three were potion, grain elmons.

However, compared to the high-level human and material resources such as knights and elves, his biggest harvest was the low-level serfs, and more than half a million serfs, civilians, and craftsmen were frantically transported to the Flame Island.

The most important thing that the newborn Flame Kingdom needs is population replenishment.

Cultivate the land, and sooner or later everything will be obtained.

As night fell, looking at the loot harvest in the study, Liszt said to himself with regret: "The only thing that is a little discordant, these knights and serfs are all from the Eagle Kingdom, when can I rob the Steel Ridge Kingdom a few times and dilute it......"
