Ma Shen planned the Stormwind Kingdom's combat-ready army as the First Army, the Second Army, the Third Army, the Fourth Army, the Fifth Army, and the Sixth Army.

The Fifth Legion was stationed at Yuankai, and the Sixth Legion was stationed at Astapore.

The First and Second Legions, totaling more than 16,000 soldiers, gathered in the new capital of the kingdom to garrison Stormwind.

The Third Legion and the Fourth Legion were responsible for the incorporation of the independent small city-states around Stormwind Bay, which had long been constantly looted and suppressed by the three major slave city-states of the former Slave Bay and the Dothraki, and were completely unable to resist attacks, and the achievements of the two legions could only be described as devastating.

Each legion consisted of the Dirty, a group of former slave-owning soldiers who had returned to obedience, and a number of slaves who had volunteered to join the army.

The establishment was 8,000 men, with 5,000 unsullied men as the main force, and of the remaining 3,000 soldiers, 1,500 archers, 800 cavalry, and a total of 700 other troops, including sword and shield men.

Six legions, totaling 48,000 soldiers, plus 2,000 Royal Navy, currently have a total of 50,000 full-time soldiers in the Stormwind Kingdom.

In addition, with the exception of the Unsullied, both the former slave-owning soldiers and the slaves who volunteered to join the army in the army are carefully selected, which does not mean that you can be selected as long as you sign up for the army.

This is mainly due to the issue of support, relying on the three major trading cities of Stormwind Bay, supporting these 50,000 full-time soldiers is almost the limit.

Although in fact, according to the regulations, the unsullied and slave soldiers are not required to be paid for a few years, but as full-time soldiers, at least they must be allowed to eat and drink well, and it is inevitable that they will have meat at every meal, because only when the food is improved, the body will have strength, and when fighting, they will not even be unable to hold a sword.

If it is like the slave soldiers under the slave owners before, most of them can't even eat enough, and they are all skinny, saving money is saving money, not to mention combat effectiveness.

It can be seen from Meereen's raid that the Unsullied almost drove straight after breaking through the city gates, and there was no wall to defend the slave soldiers at the touch of a touch, like street fighting or something, what is the use of such soldiers.

Time flies, and one day after a month, the colorful flags are flying.

Stormwind was filled with a festive atmosphere that had never been seen before, and one by one the residents of Stormwind moved a table from their house, and put what they thought was the most delicious food and beer on the table for everyone who passed by to taste it for free.

Truckloads of goods and gifts drove in from the gates, and countless emissaries of nobles and dignitaries gathered in Stormwind to prepare for the coronation of the freed slaves.

There were emissaries and nobles from the free trade city-states, as well as lords from the land of Long Summer.

In addition to bringing the blessings of their masters, they also brought more or less gifts and souvenirs, symbolizing friendship and peace.

Of course, every emissary was inevitably asked to observe privately the situation in the new kingdom and the thoughts of the man who claimed to be the liberator.

After all, being able to capture Slave Bay in such a short period of months, and accomplish such an amazing feat before they could react, how could they not worry as neighbors.

As time passed, the coronation of the king drew closer.

"Your Majesty, God loves the world, and your bravery and kindness have touched my God, and My God will bless you, and you will always be blessed by My God. ”

The Great Pyramid, one of the most ornate rooms, squires dressed in fine robes came and went, and an old man in a white robe was holding a book with a black cover, and said slowly with a loving look.

Hearing this, just opposite the old man, Ma Shen, who was trying on the coronation ceremony clothes in front of the bronze mirror, couldn't help but have black lines on his forehead, buttoned the button around his waist, and turned to look at it slightly, no matter from the angle, the face of this god stick was full of holy light.

Hey, Ma Shen sighed heavily in his heart, but he still politely replied: "Thank you very much for the blessing of the God of Thorns, I will personally go to the temple to offer offerings, I have arranged a place for the archbishop, please attend my coronation later." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Seeing Ma Shen's attitude, the old man nodded with satisfaction, and no longer disturbed the new king's changing clothes, and obediently followed the attendant to the door.

Listening to the footsteps of the old man, oh no, the archbishop of the God of Thorns sect leaving, Ma Shen shook his head helplessly, on this day, there are more than a dozen principals of this small sect alone, all of whom want to "help" themselves to preside over the coronation ceremony.

I know the hidden seven gods, the living old gods, and the king of light who can resurrect others, but I don't know the god of thorns, and in the world of ice and fire, the ghosts know whether this god exists or not.

And everyone knows what attention they are playing, and it would be foolish to really let them preside over the coronation ceremony.

In a nutshell, officiating at the coronation of a king can greatly increase the prestige of the sect, and in a deeper sense, it is a struggle between divine power and royal power.

Slave Bay has always had large and small religions rooted, but none of them have grown to the point of being like the Seven-Gods in Westeros, and they are almost all petty fights.

According to Ma Shen's own speculation, these sects could not develop, because of their competitiveness, and because of the eloquence of the clergy, after all, there were very few miracles in Slave Bay, and the texts of each religion were similar, so the development of religion depended on eloquence and deception.

In addition, most slaves think that the gods cannot save them, so why should they believe in the gods, and when they die as slaves as cattle and horses, they can enjoy happiness in the kingdom of God?

This may also be why he won the support of the slaves as soon as he appeared as a liberator.

Just as he was thinking, the crisp chime of the bell rang outside the window.

The attendant officer at the door heard the bell from the window, hurriedly walked into the room, walked to Ma Shen and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, the time is up, you can go out." ”

"I see. Ma Shen said calmly, and looked at his figure in the mirror again, the black-haired and black-eyed young man was standing in the center of the mirror wearing a gorgeous white gold-rimmed costume, this young man's facial features were angular, and he had an indistinguishable charm under a closer look.

Ma Shen originally wanted to carry out the coronation ceremony under the watchful eyes of his own people.

According to the suggestion of the organizer of the ceremony, Luo Kun, it is recommended to carry out the coronation ceremony directly in the Great Pyramid, just like the owner of the Iron Throne on the Westeros Road is in the Red Keep, and the guests are invited to some dignitaries.

This has many advantages, from the perspective of security, being crowned under the watchful eye, what if a crossbow arrow is suddenly shot from the crowd of onlookers, even if Ma Shen, who is a master of the arts, is very confident in his strength, but if this situation really occurs, it will be more troublesome, indicating that the authority of the kingdom will be challenged.

The two suggestions were combined, and finally the coronation site was placed in the largest square in Meereen, where the crowd could watch from the outside, and the middle was protected by a large number of unsullied people, and no stranger entered within 200 meters.

"I'm going to be king. After watching quietly for a while, Ma Shen opened his mouth and whispered to himself in the mirror.
