The Shan Yu (yù) of the Duchy of Saxony had nothing to do with Han Xing, he only knew that in just half a month, he had accomplished the great feats that an ordinary medieval lord could only accomplish in a lifetime or even several generations. In fact, at this time, Han Xing had already been promoted to a duke-level existence, and his strength was not weaker than that of the Duke of Hesse.

A few days later, Han Xing returned to Göttingen and began to send his men to receive and sort out these territories, and Hans, Roy, and the three Kingsguards borrowed from Rhaegar began to run around this vast territory that reached Saxony in the east, Thuringia in the south, Hesse in the west, and the sea in the north (Bremen was already a coastal area).

The reason why these people are needed to make a move is mainly because of the problem of appearance, Hans goes to the town, Roy goes to the countryside, and the three Kingskeepers go to the castle, after all, their (shēn) armor, good guys, they wear it like a tin can, and they can be selected as the Kingsguard, which one is not skilled in war? That momentum alone can scare the lords of the Braunschweig region into their stomachs.

You must know that in the Middle Ages, when communications were backward and there were many walled cities, even when Han Xing swept Brunswick and Feldenburg, he didn't really take the entire region, but just opened a road and went straight to the regional capital.

Of course, it is still easier in the countryside, after all, the peasants are simple people, of course, the peasants in the Middle Ages are poor insects who are oppressed by the aristocracy, they are powerless to resist at all, they can only blindly obey, and their living conditions are good or not, it all depends on the personal character of the lord.

Noble lords are more troublesome, if you like fairy tales, then you will find that in fact, Han Xing is already a super king in the fairy tale world, and every knight lord in his territory is basically equivalent to a little king with a village and castle in a fairy tale.

In fact, in the distant early Middle Ages, when large-scale land annexation had not yet begun, the various territories were only loose tribal alliances, and the feudal aristocratic hierarchy had not yet been released.

In fact, the fairy tale world is a utopia and a world of great harmony in a sense, and wars rarely break out between small kingdoms, mythology, magic, and throughout the period, Snow White's father actually only has one castle. A king with a castle? What are you kidding, even if you are an earl, you have at least one castle and two or three baron-level vassals under your command, in this kind of situation (qíng), if you want to seek a dynasty and usurp the throne, you must first understand the power of the vassals!

It was very difficult to play the game of conqueror in the feudal era of Europe, one of the difficulties was that the local castles were dotted around, a county, there were no less than dozens of castles large and small, if it wasn't for Han Xing's artillery, and only carried out the necessary siege, even if there was artillery, it would have to be tossed in the Braunschweig area for half a year!

This is also the main reason why the Jiangdong Xiaobawang in the Celestial Empire can sweep the six counties and eighty-one states of Jiangdong in a few years, because the Celestial Empire is already vast, and there is only one county seat in a county, it is naturally easy to fight, and there are dozens of cities of all sizes if they are killed, and the cities of the Celestial Empire are mainly based on living and living, and the defenders are often not manpowered, and there are naturally many mistakes and omissions.

But in Europe, there are more than a dozen castles in this county alone, but these castles are still hard bones, and sometimes, small also has small benefits, the defenders are few, the food consumption is also small, and the besieging army cannot spread out. Don't you see, did the Spartan warriors defeat the hundreds of thousands of Persian troops with just a few thousand men?

Fortunately, Han Xing adopted a decapitation strategy, taking the lead in attacking the regional capitals, and then forcing the Duchy of Saxony to admit his ownership of these territories, and the rest was to knock on the doors of the little nobles who were hiding at home and shivering, and tell them "Little rabbit, open the door!" "No, yes" The sky has changed, now that Count Hanschel Segaard is your new lord, why don't you go to Göttingen to meet his old man? ”

In order to sort out his new territory, Han Xing decided to hold a grand banquet, just under the city of Göttingen and on the green field on the banks of the Lena River, mainly to get to know his vassals, to be familiar with each other, at least to let them know that there is a person like him.

With the assistance of Louis XVI and others in the [Seaside District], who are extremely experienced in open-air banquets, this grand banquet was set up after dark:

On a moonlit and breezy night, on the banks of the Lena River, brightly lit colorful tents stretched for nearly a mile, and the roaring bonfire was roasting the pigs, grease seeping out of its golden surface, and then crackling and dripping into the raging flames. A few French chefs from Toulon are spreading sauce and butter on the surface of the roasted pig, and then carefully spinning the grill, a mouth-warming aroma mixed with the fragrance of pine wafts into people's mouths and noses, tantalizing people's taste buds and making people swallow their saliva without feeling free (jìn).

On the long table, there was a wide variety of food, from fruits and vegetables, (nǎi) butter (nǎi) butter to bread and cakes, and baked (ròu) wine, all the "hillbilly aristocrats" from all over the Duchy of Braunschweig swallowed their mouths, and even the mayor of the Free City of Bremen, who was famously wealthy, was stunned by the unheard of and unseen delicacies and the dazzling array of melons and fruits. I have to say that such an unprecedented banquet is a kind of show off of Han Xing's personal strength.

Take those seasonal vegetables, melons and fruits as an example, even if the ancient emperors, don't think about what they want to eat all year round, because there were no out-of-season vegetables in ancient times, and you want to eat lychees?

Then you have to "ride the red dust concubine smile", send someone to the Lingnan (Guangdong) area for 800 miles to expedite, and put the lychee in ice water to transport it! No matter how powerful he is, the emperor can't change the laws of crop growth in nature, right? (Therefore, we who live in modern times, just eating this, we enjoy it more than the ancient emperors, and the wine pond (ròu) forest of the king of the 纣, even if you are invited to eat for free, most people are not happy~)

However, no matter how much these nobles wanted to plunge into the food pile and stuff themselves into a live pig, they had to obediently line up to greet Han Xing first, "I am feasting on my vassals, not my vassals, what are you making trouble?" Want to eat? Be loyal to be the little brother first! ”

Han Xing's throne has been moved out of Göttingen, and it is placed in the open air, with a two-meter-high staircase below, the throne is silver throughout, the surface shines with a metallic luster, and there are three points at the back. It looks magnificent, and not far away, Han Xing's blue swallow flag on a white background flutters in the night wind.

Every nobleman who saw the ceremony would kneel down on one knee and kiss the square sapphire silver ring on Han Xing's right hand. It was an essential part of the rule of the aristocracy in the Middle Ages, and some nobles would shoot a rainbow (pì) at length; Some are very brief greetings, there is a saying that "people don't talk much", people who talk less are more sincere to a large extent, and most of them have some skills under their hands, Han Xing paid a little attention to such nobles, and asked Hans to write them down.

Just to salute, it took Han Xing more than an hour, no wonder the aristocratic hierarchy prevails in Europe, Han Xing is only a quasi-duke, and there are hundreds of knights under him, each of which has to be encouraged, Han Xing's mouth is about to grind out bubbles! At first, Han Xing would also say two words like "follow me, there is a future, and the benefits are great", and when he went to the back, he simply nodded, waved his hand, or snorted, signaling them to go down.

If His Majesty the Emperor is changed, he will not be able to exhaust himself out of Parkinson's (stroke, hands will tremble)! If the barons are divided, Han Xing only needs to deal with a few barons, and let those knights toss and greet them! However, Han Xing gritted his teeth and had to (tǐng) down, and finally completely put the Duchy of Braunschweig into his own pocket, if he divided it again, his direct jurisdiction would be reduced, not to mention, it was easy to invite God to send God, and it would not be easy to take it back when the time came!

It is worth mentioning that the two religious vassals in the Feldenburg area, the Bishop of Osterberg and the Bishop of Rothenburg, did not come, and in the Middle Ages, when Catholicism was prevalent, there were churches and monasteries in each area, some of which were located in towns like the chapel of Father Eugen.

Others, like these bishops, have separate monasteries or even domains, equivalent to baronial vassals, and they are even protected by separate papal knights, and whether or not they can be mobilized usually depends on the lord's relationship with them.

In Feldenburg, except for the capital Barony of Feldenburg, the remaining two-thirds of the land is in the hands of the two bishops, and if they are not present, it means that Han Xing only controls one-third of Feldenburg, which is a serious big problem!

And the reason why they didn't attend, Han Xingyong (pì) shares (pì) think it is mostly because of the honorary title of "heresy" given to him by the Archbishop of Münster.

Although Han Xing was a little unhappy in his heart, he already had a plan - to make an example of the monkey, he had to take action to clean up the damn Archbishop of Münster, and when the archbishop was convinced, where would these two small characters dare to go against him?

Unexpectedly, Cao (cāo), Cao (cāo) arrived, and when Han Xing's banquet was going on happily, a few guys wearing red hooded cloaks broke in on black horses, instantly breaking the harmonious atmosphere of the banquet.
