Chapter 122: Forming a Coalition Army
For this reason, Lin Feng first went to visit Brad, although after obtaining the right to arbitrarily take the opportunity, Lin Feng no longer needed to inform him of everything, but now, Lin Feng still needs him very much as a "plenipotentiary envoy", at least, Brad represents His Majesty the Emperor in the eyes of other nobles in Golden Moon City, well, is an orthodox "power referee".
In Lin Feng's expectation, the battle against Jin Yueling in the future could not be completed by himself alone, "I have worked hard to build a private army, how can it be weakened by consumption like this? At least everyone must come together!" Lin Feng thought so.
In fact, Lin Feng also knew that even if he laid down the entire Golden Moon Territory alone, the Emperor would never let him enjoy his territory exclusively, even if His Majesty August Ellis agreed, the other nobles of this Golden Moon County would never agree, in this case, why did Lin Feng have to carry it himself?
"I just need to get the command of the crusade against the Golden Moon Leader's coalition forces," Lin Feng thought to himself, "Anyway, the interests are current, and I am not afraid that they will not come out, well, if there is really something that does not come out, I think the other nobles will be very happy that they have one less person to share the 'pie'." ”
In this way, with Brad's "endorsement", Lin Feng also contacted some small and medium-sized nobles who had been suppressed by the Marquis of Jinyue in Jinyue City, and at a recent meeting of the Noble Council, Lin Feng put forward a proposal to "expel the Marquis of Jinyue from Jinyue County", and the reason was also very strong, "The Marquis of Jinyue colluded with the rebels and tried in vain to overthrow His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Our esteemed Emperor August Ellis has granted me, Viscount Golden Rose, the right to arbitrarily fight against the enemy in Jinyue County," Lin Feng deliberately used the vague word "fighting against the enemy" here, "So, I am here to announce that Jinyue County will form a 'rebellious coalition army', well, the first enemy of the coalition army is the rebellious Golden Moon Leader!"
Subsequently, the council hall of the noble council was like a noisy vegetable market, and the nobles were constantly arguing and arguing for their own interests, and finally, under the guidance and suppression of Lin Feng and Brad several times, the noble council of Golden Moon City finally made a decision:
First, the establishment of the "Rebel Alliance" and the establishment of a joint command to control the command of the rebel army, the command has a commander, two deputy commanders, and several staff officers; among them, Viscount Golden Rose is the commander of the coalition forces, Bullard occupies a deputy commander-in-chief, and the other deputy commander is Earl Benjamin Harold.
Second, the elite private armies of various nobles will be transferred to form a rebel army, and a separate brigade can be set up with 300 troops, and the officers of the brigade will be appointed and dismissed by the nobles who send troops; the private armies of the nobles with less than 300 troops will be reorganized under the orders of the joint command, and the officers will also be appointed by the joint command.
Third, the distribution of the spoils of war will be determined with reference to the size of the meritorious service made by the private army of each noble, and at the same time, the contribution of providing military supplies and logistics manpower will also be converted into a successful medal, in short, someone will contribute to the people, there is money to pay, as long as you have contributed in the process of crusading against the rebellion, you can share a piece of the "pie" after the war!
In this meeting, Lin Feng and Brad did not deliberately keep it a secret, after all, the Marquis of Golden Moon had also been operating in Golden Moon City for so long, and he was here, so he secretly didn't know how many secret relationships there were?
Jin Yue Ling, the Marquis of Jin Yue's Mansion, and the Marquis of Jin Yue are also gathering their clansmen and subordinates to discuss countermeasures, and they have all received news from Jin Yue City.
In the eyes of the clansmen and subordinates, Marquis Jinyue has aged a lot recently, although he is still trying his best to maintain his power and majesty as the helmsman of the Jinyue family, but everyone present can see the exhaustion and decadence exuded by Marquis Jinyue, but as long as he does not die, no one dares to show other strange thoughts in front of him.
In the face of the upcoming crusade, the Marquis of Jin Yue had to issue a general order within the Jin Yue Territory, what "fishing with all his might", what "scraping the ground", he also couldn't care about it, he only wanted people to ask for food now, and the more the better.
Marquis Jinyue knew very well in his heart that if he repelled the crusade of the coalition forces, then he would have a chance to "make a comeback", if he lost, well, all this would no longer belong to him, it was better to squeeze out all the potential that could be squeezed now, and then fight hard.
The old and frail Marquis of Jinyue had lost his previous wisdom at this time, and he became a little hysterical, although in doing so, it seemed that he had increased a lot of troops, seemed to have hoarded a lot of supplies, and it also seemed to increase his chances of victory.
However, he has lost the hearts of the people of Jin Yueling, you know, the Jin Yue family has ruled this land for hundreds of years, and under the efforts of generations of Marquis Jin Yue, the people at the bottom of Jin Yue Ling still support the Jin Yue family very much, but now, they have all been ruined by his stupid trick.
After Lin Feng received this news, his original nervous mood immediately relaxed, commanding a motley rebel army that was not very united, to crusade against a troubled old nobleman, to be honest, Lin Feng really has no certainty of victory, well, in the past, he could only guarantee that he would not lose, but now, victory can be expected!
In order to add another fire to the Golden Moon Collar, Lin Feng deliberately slowed down the assembly speed of the coalition army, he wanted to give the Marquis of Golden Moon a little more time, so that he could search more thoroughly in the Golden Moon Territory, well, let those Golden Moon Leaders who still had expectations for the Golden Moon Family also die a little more completely.
Half a month later, the nobles of Golden Moon City began to jointly urge Lin Feng to send troops, this army was assembled, the daily cost was a lot, without seeing a little income enter the door, these nobles didn't want to drag it out any longer, "What is a pig teammate? This is!" Lin Feng said to Tailanya.
According to Lin Feng's plan, he originally wanted to delay it for another month, maybe at that time, maybe the Marquis of Jinyue himself would toss himself to death, according to the intelligence of the secret agents, Lin Feng had already speculated, "Marquis of Jinyue knows that his life will not last long, and he is ready to die crazy, well, who let him not have an excellent heir?"
Lin Feng didn't know that Marquis Jinyue had already asked his eldest son to retreat to Mason County with some of his clansmen to join Prince Kevin Ellis, and of course, they had also taken away nearly half of the huge wealth that the Golden Moon family had treasured over the years.
No one would have thought that what the Marquis of Jinyue did in Jinyue was nothing more than a show, a parting show for the Jinyue family to withdraw from Jinyue County!
