Chapter 184: The Prototype of the Knights
The residence of the Marquis de Pagat, which is now supposed to be Richard's residence,
The mansion has been cleaned up, some of the damage caused in the chaos has been completely repaired, and the mansion has reached the standard of being able to move in, except for some people with a keen sense of smell who can smell a little bit of blood here.
Different from the desertion some time ago, today's Hou Mansion is somewhat popular, in addition to the guards and servants, at least more than 50 men wearing armor and carrying swords gathered in the mansion.
On closer inspection, these people are wearing delicate chain mail or plate armor, and each of them should not be ordinary martial artists.
These people are all knights who came to seek refuge in the Marquis of Hirano, and among these people there are not only knights without knights, but even a few knights with knighthoods.
The knights who had been arranged to live in the Hou Mansion for a few days were told that today was the day when the Marquis of Richard was going to receive them.
If you want to see a great nobleman like the Marquis of Hirano, who started with military achievements, and he himself is the strongest man in the kingdom, he naturally has to do what he likes, and he does not wear any bells and whistles, but shows off his best armament.
One of them was Viscount Hademen, a middle-aged man in his forties who was dressed in fine iron plate armor and was a strange person in the middle and lower aristocratic circles of the royal capital.
Viscount Hademen was originally a commoner, the son of a tobacco farmer, although he was born as a civilian, but the family is quite solid, Hademen's body has always been not bad, plus the talent is good, Hademen was lucky to be selected into the knight academy in the royal capital, the cradle of civilian knights,
After graduating and serving in Longxi Pass for 20 years, he returned to the royal capital, and with his excellent military exploits, he was awarded the title of viscount, and he had two farms of his own in the central plain.
Generally speaking, after a person like Hademen returns from the service of Longxi Pass, the basic path should be to marry a wife and have children, cultivate the next generation, and gradually form a small noble family, if you are lucky, after two or three generations, the clan can stabilize one or two knights per generation, and the family's titles and fiefs will be passed on steadily, so as to stabilize the aristocratic status and complete the family's class jump.
However, in the years after Hademen retired from Longxi Pass and returned to the royal capital, he had no intention of marrying a wife and having children, but continued to maintain his training status in Longxi Pass, and even became more diligent.
People are still different, most people are easy to indulge in enjoyment, but there are always people who will always maintain their original intention.
For a small nobleman like Viscount Hadman, the Grand Knight Rank is the ceiling, they don't have better resources and better Qi Draw to support them to get closer, if they want to go further, they need more opportunities.
In the eyes of Hardman, Richard is his further opportunity, originally Hardman was trying to find a way to vote under Solmen,
But after the battle of Richard Palace, the strength of the Sky Knight was shown, and Hardman immediately changed his mind.
The multiple-choice question of the Sky Knight and the Earth Knight can be done by children, since they want to become stronger, they should naturally vote under the strongest people, so after Hademen arranged the affairs of several manors, he led the war horse alone and came to the Hou Mansion with new-maintained equipment.
But after arriving here, Hademen found that there seemed to be a lot of people who thought the same as him, and someone had already come to the Hou Mansion before him to be entertained and stayed, and in the past two days, many people have come one after another, some of them were born above him, and even brought some servants,
His only advantage may be that with all these years of hard training, his strength has reached the level of the first level of the Great Knight, which is the strongest in this group.
…
"Lord Richard, there are a total of fifty-six knight-level powerhouses who have recently served, and one of the great knight-level powerhouses has now gathered in the former academy of the Hou Mansion to wait for your lecture."
"Well, let's go."
Richard, who became famous by fighting the Battle of Miyagi, naturally couldn't do nothing during his stay in the royal capital.
Since he is desperate, regardless of whether the strongest person in this kingdom is true or not, it is not in line with Richard's personality if he does not take advantage of the benefits.
From the day he woke up in the palace, Richard ordered his men to start raising flags to recruit knights to follow.
This effect is also better than Richard imagined, in just a few days, not only more than fifty knights came, but even a big knight defected, even Thor recruited people to the north, and there was no strong man of the big knight level to defect, the name of the sky knight is really useful.
"Hirano Hou has arrived!"
From the perspective of Hadmen, a young nobleman dressed in Phnom Penh armor walked out of the courtyard surrounded by several knights.
Then he walked straight to the high platform of the school grounds.
The school field, which was still a little noisy, quickly quieted down after the other party stood on the high platform.
Most of these knights have served in the army, and it is natural to form a simple queue at this time.
And as the most powerful of the people, Hademen naturally stood at the head of the team, and when he looked up, he could look at the young and powerful Marquis Hirano.
"I'm Hirano Marquis Richard......"
After the attention of the crowd was concentrated, Richard began his own speech, and Richard, who often lectured in the military and military academies, was already comfortable with such occasions.
Speaking to people and talking nonsense to ghosts, Richard's speech in the official school of Tiemu City emphasized with the students the ideals and beliefs and the dedication to the territory.
But for the following group of knights who already have more experience, Richard told them more,
Follow me Richard, there is no shortage of money, no lack of status, and no shortage of ascending channels, not only have the opportunity to obtain better breathing methods and qi induction, but also enjoy the cultivation resources provided by my Pingye Hou forces,
The most important thing is that there is also a chance to get the personal guidance of the only sky knight currently certified by the kingdom, Marquis Richard.
Although the knights below were not as enthusiastic as the young people of Ironwood City, they were also a little excited by Richard's painting at this time, after all, they were here to draw that.
After the speech, Richard arranged for Zebul to manage these knights first, and with the strength of Zebul's earth rank, he was sure to be able to manage these people well.
How to use these people, Richard already had a draft in his heart,
It is impossible to supplement them to the army as officers, and in Richard's plan, the officers of his own army should be people who have been trained by themselves and have absolute loyalty.
Rather than slower than break this convention, Richard needed to ensure that he had absolute control over the army.
In Richard's plan, these knights will all be organized into a knightly order, a knightly order composed of all knights and above.
They will be equipped with red-flame horses clad in full-body armor, which will act as arrows for the Northland shock cavalry,
A shock cavalry composed entirely of knightly ranks, from men to horses, is heavily armoured,
The number of such knights is only hundreds, and after rushing up, even a strong person like Yashu may be difficult to resist.
No one knew that a knight order that would shake the continent would set up the first scaffold in this small Hou Mansion...
