Chapter 174: Fifty Thousand Troops

Lin Feng can also be regarded as grasping the loophole of the imperial law: it does not stipulate the specific number of hereditary knights canonized by hereditary viscounts, theoretically speaking, as long as you can take out the territory that is divided, then you can canonize the hereditary vassal knights who match it.

The northern territory of Jinyue County has now been "recovered" by Lin Feng, according to the detailed rules of the special wartime decree, he has the "wartime management power" and "wartime sub-feudal rights", which is also the "wartime reward policy" implemented by the wartime decree in order to motivate those nobles at that time to rise up against the invasion of the enemy country, which will generally be adjusted again after the war.

Lin Feng also used this as a legal basis to "temporarily manage" the northern territory of Jinyue County and exercise the "wartime feudal right" to divide the "ownerless" land on this fast territory to his own hereditary vassal knights, which is barely tenable in legal theory.

As for the "readjustment" after the war, Lin Feng was not worried at all, "This mess will only come more and more, how can it be calmed down in a short period of time? ”

In the shocked look of Count Harold, Lin Feng stood on a temporary high platform, facing the nine hundred and fifty-six newly promoted hereditary vassal knights of the Golden Rose family lined up neatly below, Lin Feng said with a radiant look: "Our heroic coalition warriors fought bravely, defeated the vicious orcs, and recovered the lost territory, according to the ...... of the empire."

In order to let everyone in the central square hear his speech, Lin Feng has been blessed with "amplification technique" for himself, so although Earl Harold is standing relatively remotely, they still hear his speech very clearly, especially Earl Harold, because he remembered Lin Feng's so-called "confession", he listened to every word very seriously.

But as a result, although Harold is still trying to maintain his composure, he also knows that judging from the consistent style of Viscount Golden Rose, since he dares to openly pick out the matter and has done this, then the "special war law" he said is absolutely true, and in the face of the so-called "righteousness", they will never find fault.

There were also a few nobles who were about to congratulate each other after hearing that Viscount Golden Rose had recovered the northern territory of Jinyue County, but they were stunned by Lin Feng's words next, "Without our consent, he actually regarded our territory as his own? Who gave him this right?"

Most of the family territories of these nobles were located in the northern part of Jinyue County, so they were about to make trouble on the spot, but Lin Feng had already expected this, not only arranging them in a remote corner of the celebration, but also letting Xiao Er send a group of people to keep an eye on them on the periphery.

So, when they just showed signs of making noise, they were stopped by Xiao Er's people, and if they didn't make trouble, they would give you face and let you listen to Lin Feng's speech quietly;

In short, except for a little turmoil caused by the nobles who watched the ceremony, Lin Feng's canonization ceremony was very successful, after paying such a big price, Lin Feng also believed in these knights who accepted his canonization, "Well, in their hearts, this reputation is at least between friendship and respect, as long as time passes, they will be completely integrated into their family sooner or later." ”

After completing the "feat" of annexing the coalition forces, Lin Feng also felt that he had really become a big fat man in one bite this time, and the Golden Rose Knights, which had only more than 5,000 people at the waist, swelled to 30,000 at once this time, in order to reconcile the interests between them, Lin Feng did not calculate less.

"This new blood comes too much at once, and it is easy to dilute the influence of the 'lineage'. Lin Feng thought with a little headache, "After a long time, Rockland and their army are easily overshadowed by these new knights, after all, Lockland and the others don't have much influence in the coalition army." ”

Lin Feng was annoyed for two or three days, but Tailanya inadvertently reminded him, "Why are these Terge and Liya always fighting back and forth? ”

"Bring in a third party!" Lin Feng suddenly became enlightened, "Simply, I will recruit him with another 20,000 soldiers, and directly expand the Golden Rose Knights into a large army of 50,000 people, well, in this case, maybe I can also 'support' Mason County, and by the way, I can also train soldiers." ”

When Lin Feng was planning to further expand his private army, Earl Harold led the members of the noble council to wait for the return of the "coalition army" in Golden Moon City, but this "coalition army" now has less than 3,000 people left, and its members are basically the family descendants of various nobles in the noble council.

After Lin Feng swallowed the main force of the coalition army in one bite, he did not embarrass these people, after rewarding a large amount of "wartime allowance", these 3,000 people were sent back to Jinyue City by him, and before that, Lin Feng took the first step to move the staff headquarters of the "coalition army" back to Jinyue City, after all, this war with the orcs is over.

It was also in order to better digest the 25,000 people, Lin Feng removed them from the coalition army sequence the day after the canonization ceremony, and the remaining three thousand people, that is, the diehards of the noble council, they were the only remaining Jinyue County coalition army, well, after this "coalition army" returned to Jinyue City, Lin Feng's letter of resignation as commander-in-chief of the coalition army was also handed to the noble council on the same day.

It's not that Earl Harold didn't want to resist, but they relied on the "coalition army" of 3,000 people in their hands to fight against the 30,000 people of Viscount Golden Rose?Oh~ No, I heard that the reckless Viscount Golden Rose began to recruit troops again, and after he ate the main force of the coalition army, he actually wanted to recruit 20,000 more troops? Well, 3,000 against 50,000, even a fool knows what the result is!

Therefore, in addition to sending people to the imperial capital to complain, the noble council is secretly connecting and engaging in some small conspiracies that cannot be put on the table, and Lin Feng really didn't take them to heart, his eyes are now on Mason County, and even, across the border, on the territory of the Black Rock tribe of the Orc Empire.

For the Kevin Ellis who colluded with the Black Rock Orcs, Lin Feng was full of hatred now, after all, except for the human slaves who were first abducted by the Black Rock Orcs and sent back to the Black Rock Clan, the other human slaves, well, whether it was the young men of Mason County or the old and weak women and children of Jinyue County, their flesh and soul had been devoured by the Abyss Demon, "Even for that altar made of human bones, I won't let you go easily!"
