Chapter 1120: Annexation

From June to August, for two full months, the impact of the Dragon Slaying War not only did not subside, but on the contrary, it intensified, sweeping the three major kingdoms in the northeast corner of the legendary continent, and even the surrounding Huangshiyuan Kingdom and Fallen Leaf Kingdom, all of which paid attention to the situation of the Triple Alliance.

In the entire Eagle Kingdom, the cohesion of the nobles has collapsed, and in the face of the Flame Kingdom's not strong knights, they have collapsed and collapsed.

A large number of nobles chose to surrender, and the recalcitrant nobles were robbed of their wealth.

During this period of time, the four vassal states of the Eagle Kingdom, the Pink Ruby Principality, the Bronze Principality, the Chrysoberyl Principality, and the Crimson Ruby Grand Duchy, all turned their backs on the Eagle Kingdom and discussed with the Flame Kingdom about changing their courts. Among them, the Principality of Deep Ruby has the lowest status.

Without him, the Grand Duke was captured, the dragon was also captured, and the principality had no basis for existence.

"There are too many things to deal with in the past two months, especially the negotiations with the many nobles of the Eagle Kingdom, which have taken me a huge amount of energy, and I still feel physically exhausted as a realm knight now. "In the study of a castle, William Lee, the Duke of Tulip Island, rubbed his forehead.

"Father, you are the Prime Minister of the Foreign Cabinet, and you can appropriately hand over part of the negotiation work to other ministers and coordinate the joining of several principalities. ”

Liszt stood in front of the castle's floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the sunset in the distance.

The wheat is ripe, the golden gold is bent over, the serfs are harvesting in groups, the wives are delivering food, the children are running, everything is so harmonious and beautiful.

"There are too few ministers, Liszt, the outer cabinet of the Flame Kingdom needs to be expanded, otherwise we will not be able to cope with more and more changes in nobility. After all, the true population size of the Flame Kingdom is only equivalent to a Grand Duchy, and now we are annexing the Eagle Kingdom, the old kingdom. ”

"Father, look at the arrangement, divide the Outer Cabinet into two classes, permanent ministers and general ministers, the permanent ministers will remain at eleven, and the general ministers will be kept at about fifty. A list of alternate ministers was added, and the number of candidates remained at about 500...... It can be appropriately drawn from the nobles of the Eagle Kingdom. ”

After Liszt finished speaking, he seemed to think of something, and added: "Edward Crimson Ruby is very knowledgeable about current affairs, and the position of permanent minister can include him in it." ”

"The Deep Ruby Family, what are your specific arrangements?" asked William Li.

"Having promised Edward the title of duke, the Crimson Ruby family will start anew in the Flame Kingdom, and all fiefdom nobles and direct nobles will be transferred to me and assist me in ensuring the stability of the Grand Duchy. Liszt sighed, "I started war, but I don't want it to destroy this fertile land. ”

"When you unify the Triple Alliance, I believe that the northeastern corner of the Legendary Continent will not easily start a war. ”

"It's not enough, father, there is also the Guishan Empire terrier on the side of the couch, this legendary continent is too wide. ”

"But you have plenty of time to take over, don't you. ”

Liszt smiled: "Maybe." ”

Dangdang.

There was a knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, Her Highness Emily asks to see you. ”

"Ask her to come in. ”

Emily walked into the study with a sassy and heroic appearance, and said directly after the salute: "Your Majesty, the Eagle Royal Family has handed over an official note, and King Adonis and Prince Alexander will rush to the Castle of Colorful Glutinous Rice to meet you on September 6th. ”

The castle of colorful glutinous rice is the castle at your feet.

It is the castle of a marquis of the Eagle Kingdom, Thomas Colorful Glutinous Rice, this marquis has surrendered, and the castle has been turned into a temporary palace by Li Si. This time, he issued a punishment order, no longer to make a small fuss, loot and leave, but to occupy it permanently.

"Well, then arrange this meeting, and hold a drinking party by the way, and invite all the nobles of Toucheng to attend. Liszt said lightly.

The Eagle Kingdom has been crippled, and I wanted to destroy the Eagle Royal Family in one go, but I didn't expect the Royal Family to be quite decisive and directly sent an envoy to ask for surrender. He was willing to surrender to the Flame Kingdom and be demoted to a Grand Duchy, but Liszt had not yet agreed, because the other party still had a three-headed dragon.

A Grand Duchy has a three-headed dragon, which is obviously beyond his bottom line, and if the Eagle Kingdom really wants to surrender, then only one dragon can be allowed to be kept.

And at the disposal of Liszt.

He poured a glass of juice for Emily, comforted the dragon knight who had been running around all day, and then said to William Li: "Father, I will attend the banquet, but I will not participate in the formal negotiations, and I will be fully presided over by the outer cabinet." Father, you can properly raid Prince Alex. ”

"You mean, after the Eagle Kingdom is demoted, only Alex, the dragon knight, will be retained?"

"Yes, it is not easy to cultivate a dragon knight, as long as Alex knows the current affairs, I think it makes more sense to keep him as a dragon knight than to snatch the white-mouthed iron dragon. Liszt said, he was also helpless, there were too few dragon knights in the Flame Kingdom, and if he wanted to cultivate them himself, he would be able to make up a few dragon knights for at least a few decades.

He wasn't going to wait decades before conquering the Legendary Continent.

It should be sooner rather than later to unify the world, and he will go to the Exiled Land with Ark to find the fairy dragon, and then be busy making villains.

......

September of the 2nd year of the flame calendar.

The Grand Duchy of Crimby announced its annexation to the Kingdom of Flames, and the original Grand Duke Edward Crimby, who paid tribute to Liszt the Ruby Dragon, changed his name to Edward Dandelion, and was divided into Duke Dandelion by Liszt.

October of the 2nd year of the flame calendar.

The Pink Principality, declared its annexation to the Kingdom of Flames, still following Liszt as a principality, the Grand Duchy of Copper, declared its annexation to the Kingdom of Flames, following Liszt as a principality, and the Duchy of Chrysoberyl, declared its annexation to the Kingdom of Flames, still following Liszt as a principality.

Flame calendar February November.

After two and a half months of negotiations, the Eagle Royal Family officially surrendered to the Flame Royal Family. Adonis Moonsilver abdicated the throne and was made Duke of the Eagle by Liszt. On the basis of the original royal city of the Eagle Kingdom, the territory of the Eagle Principality was divided, and the brass dragon was used as the cornerstone of the Principality.

At the same time, the former Prince Alex White-Mouthed Iron was named the Grand Duke of White Iron by Liszt, retained the White Iron Dragon, and divided the Grand Duchy of White Iron on the basis of his original fief.

In addition, the other white-mouthed iron dragon of the Eagle Kingdom was paid to Liszt as a tribute.

So far.

The Eagle Kingdom, which has been inherited for nearly a thousand years, has completely become a thing of the past, and all its territories have been swallowed up by the Fire Kingdom. The northeastern corner of the Legendary Continent has returned to the previous Three Kingdoms situation, except that the Eagle Kingdom has been replaced by the Flame Kingdom, and at the same time, the Iron Ridge Kingdom has formed an alliance with the Blast Furnace Fort Kingdom to confront each other.

In the face of the strong rise of the Flame Kingdom, the Iron Ridge Kingdom and the Blast Furnace Fort Kingdom condemned one after another, but they did not dare to interfere in this process.

I can only watch the Flame Kingdom digest the chaos brought about by the annexation little by little, and complete the division and pacification of the nobles.

It wasn't until the New Year's Day was approaching that Liszt received a little news from the two kingdoms, which was from Mary's Blood Servants.

"Your Majesty, Duke Buffett, the dragon knight of the Kushan Empire, has arrived in the Blast Furnace Fort Kingdom. ”

"Kushan Empire...... Duke Buffett ...... "In a palace near the crater of Doom, Liszt looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, "Do you know what ancient artifacts Buffett brought?"

"Okay, no. ”

"Keep looking. ”

"As you wish, Your Majesty. ”
