115, Kingdom (2)
"I heard that Lord Andrew is teaching Glory Fighting Qi in the barracks?" Ryan asked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At the end of the Great War of Legends, when Arras and the Senate were preparing for the coronation ceremony and taking over the southern region, Andrew selected 1,000 bronze-rank soldiers with good qualifications and talents from the seven legions of the original Duchy of Griffon, and uniformly taught the Templar Standard Fighting Qi Glory Fighting Qi.
This was Adam's long-standing idea, to expand the influence of the faith while teaching glory to the soldiers in the barracks, while training an army that would be loyal to him. In the past, there were accidents one after another because of various things, and there was no leisure, but now the conditions are finally ripe.
After a series of events such as the establishment of the Duchy of Griffin, the attack of the Church of Dawn, the confrontation of the Eight Golds, and the Great War of Legends, the soldiers in the Duchy of Griffin were extremely supportive of Adam, and even had a very good sense of belief in the sun god, which was introduced by Adam. This, coupled with the Holy Light healing service in the church, made him an excellent reputation among the common people and adventurers alike - the mental condition was ripe.
So this time, the 1,000 soldiers selected by Andrew were either gifted with good potential or had strong wills and beliefs. Of course, in the eyes of the other soldiers, they were completely lucky, and it was an enviable thing to be taught by a legendary master.
Arras, who had been successfully promoted to the bronze rank by Andrew, nodded: "That's right, Lord Andrew is teaching them Glory Fighting Qi. I heard that one soldier fainted with excitement when he heard the news. ”
Six Silver exchanged glances to show that they understood the feeling, and if a legendary master was willing to instruct them on how to advance to gold, they might be even more excited than the soldier.
The soldier who fainted, named Gunner, rose to the bronze rank in the second battle with the Council of Nobles, and later joined the Griffon Legion as a bronze warrior with Wesker.
"I'm too embarrassed to tell people I know you." In the barracks, Wesker said to the archers who trotted all the way to his side during the break.
He didn't want to think back to the humiliating scene that day when the Legion Commander announced that Lord Andrew, the archduke of the griffon's guardian knight and legendary master, would teach them a set of fighting spirits. He was tempted to pretend he didn't know Gunner, but in the face of teasing or surprised stares everywhere, he could only poke Gunner awake.
"Don't say that, man, I know I'm a little overexcited. But don't think I don't know how excited you are, it's just that I'm just a little bit more excited than yours. Gunner scratched at his messy hair, and he noticed that the training ground was always looking at him, and from time to time burst into laughter—mocking him was probably one of the few pleasures that the soldiers had during this time to exercise their fighting spirits.
You don't have to think about it to know what they're talking about, it's like, 'He's the soldier who fainted,' 'Look, that's the man,' and so on. He used to like the feeling of being noticed very much, but now he regretted it, Sun God, how could there be such a terrible torture in the world, even the gradual increase in the glory and fighting spirit in his body could not make him feel better.
"At least you're a celebrity now, and the entire training ground, including Master Andrew and Master Bit, knows you." The man who spoke was a man named Doberman, who was the overseer of the Griffin Legion, and on the third day of Andrew's imparting Glory Fighting Qi, he successfully transformed all his Fighting Qi into Glory Fighting Qi, and was one of the fastest learners among the 1,000 people.
"I beg you, don't mention that again." Gunner covered his face and groaned pitifully, though he was proud to have Andrew's name remembered. The archer hurriedly changed the subject, "Where will we be placed in seven days?" ”
Seven days later will be the coronation of Adam, Grand Duke of the Griffon, when a kingdom called the Holy Griffin Kingdom will be born in Celtic.
"I've heard Mistress Bit say that our mission is to stay on the Griffon Square and prevent any accidents." Dubin said.
"Accidents? Who would dare to cause trouble at the coronation of the Grand Duke? Gunna's eyes widened, and he was simply stunned, "With the three adults Andrew, Simon, and Teresa, could it be that the Church of Dawn and the Silver Tower have sent masters to Celtic again!" ”
Wesker slapped Gunner on the back of the head: "It's not the accident, it's to prevent the people and adventurers who are too excited." ”
The birth of the first unified kingdom in the history of the Celts, how the Celts were not excited. As the dominant leader, Adam's prestige reached its peak directly after the news of the end of the legendary battle and the imminent coronation. On the day of the coronation, it was very necessary to send soldiers of the army to maintain order.

"You can dislike him and think that he is just a hairy boy with three legends, or you can criticize him for killing all the priests of the Church of the Dawn in Celtic for his own selfishness, but it is absolutely impossible to deny that he has accomplished an unprecedented feat."
In the South, Major summoned the existing councillors to speak: "Griffon's Square will be filled with excited crowds and believers on the day of the coronation, and I hope that all those present will always keep half of their attention on them, so that nothing unexpected happens." ”
After Lady Teresa headed south with the two Golden Sword Saints, the already one-sided situation was quickly cleaned up, whether it was the remaining bishops, priests of the Dawn Church, or believers who were unwilling to give up their faith. The power that the Church of Dawn had spent ninety years laying in southern Celtic fell apart and was uprooted.
Two days ago, a document of appointment signed and approved by the First Consul was delivered to Major, and the councilors of the two noble powers, the traditional and the new, were basically reappointed, ranging from the lord of the city to the construction officer, the merchant officer, the financial officer, and so on.
Their nobility was not deprived, for example, Major himself still retained the title of count, but the title of nobility could not be hereditary - only the title of nobility that was reacquired after the establishment of the kingdom could be inherited and hereditary, but not more than three generations - and the title could not be retained in its entirety.
It was not for nothing that Adam made this decision.
When the Seven Cities Federation was unified, the titles and territories of all nobles and lords in the territory were retained because of the need to maintain stability, and the aristocratic feudal system was not as prevalent as imagined in the north of the Seven Cities Division. But the southern region is different, and the name of the aristocratic council can be seen how prevalent the aristocracy is in the southern region.
When Adam saw the map of the southern territories that had been sent to him, his eyes were almost dark, and he could not find any slightly larger land on it that had not been divided. The council divided the land among the nobles, who in turn divided it into lords and knights, and eventually some of the land came to the peasants to grow crops.
Reclaim the land, the land must be reclaimed!
Moreover, a new kingdom was about to be established, and it was already a great mercy for him to recognize the title of nobility left over from the previous political entity.
Adam threw the problem to Arras and the Senate, and finally got a solution: the temples, nobles, and lords who originally belonged to the Church of the Dawn would have their land confiscated and their nobility revoked (if they were willing to renounce their faith and survive); The traditional and emerging nobles were reclaimed by the Senate, with the exception of the family domains, and after the coronation they were redistributed according to the rank of nobility (usually about one-tenth of the original territory).
Except for some nobles who regarded nobility and land as glory and regarded them as more important than their lives, the others did not have much opinion, and in fact it was beyond their expectations to be able to retain their nobility and part of their territory. After all, as a defeated and capitulating party, such a thing as the confiscation of property, titles, and land was not unheard of in Celtic history.
Arras was saddened by this, feeling that Adam had missed an opportunity to reclaim all of the southern lands.
"I know you may have regrets, but a new era has dawned, and a series of changes will take place in the land seven days later with the coronation of the great Grand Duke of Griffon as King of the Holy Griffon Kingdom. I hope to see you here again. The implication is that in order to save their lives, the old stubborns who temporarily shrank their heads should not think about making trouble, otherwise they will not even have the opportunity to stand here.
Coming to the army of the Weaving family in Joman, Mei Jie is still shocked, what kind of family can train such an elite team and be unknown, if it weren't for Adam's outcome, I'm afraid no one would know that there is such a powerful and mysterious family in the world.
The people who could stand here were all smart people, at least in the matter of welcoming Adam's rule, so after receiving Major's warning, they immediately searched in their minds to see if someone in the family had made inappropriate remarks, especially a few people from the traditional aristocratic forces who came to the answer almost directly.
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, we are all nobles of the Holy Griffin Kingdom now." They assured Major that they were going to exercise the patriarch's powers when they returned. (To be continued.) )
