Chapter 270: Borrowing Soldiers (II)
, "If Apsis City doesn't mobilize and keep silent, of course the abyss man will be more brotherly" fly, but it may also sweep the surrounding towns and territories first, so that we are in danger, and now, we just need to remain silent. ”
"However, the barony should be prepared quickly.1 I think that only at this time, the barony is the easiest to wholesale, and, when we wholesale it, at least the results of this little decisive battle will come out, I believe that no matter who it is, it will be a big loss, and this time will be a good opportunity for us to develop, and it will be difficult for me to develop without the barony. ”
The words were very clear, and Scholar Lulun nodded and said, "Yes, I understand."
In fact, there is a reason, Romon didn't say it, and Lu Lun also understood.
That is the relationship between knights and nobles.
Under normal circumstances, a Lord would only have one real Knight, while a Baron could have ten Knights.
The nobles and knights constituted the upper and lower tiers of the entire aristocratic class. The aristocracy held the land and was responsible for maintaining peace and public order in the place, while the knights were the assistants and dependents of the nobles, who undertook military tasks.
Now Romon has a territory and a title that is not enough to maintain such a large army, and has four knights, let alone development.
Just then, the servants from outside came in. He said, "Sir, Baron Rocas is here." ”
"Sure enough!" said Romon. He stood up.
Lu Lun immediately closed all the three boxes, and only needed to close them, only the net was a cut tea brick, and it was still on the tea set on the table.
Arriving at the door, Romon greets: "Baron Rocas, it's an honor to meet you".
"Oh, Lord Tatshaw, you are truly a nobleman, thank you for this rescue. Baron Roccas's emaciated face smiled warmly, and behind him were Miss Elenie, and Knight Corero. There is also a god of order in a gray robe in the back
。
This meeting, strictly speaking, was the third formal meeting between the two, and compared to the condescending first time and the second time was barely hypocritical, this time it was indeed much more equal and enthusiastic.
In the sand seat of the small living room, the servant used the tea brick to cook milk tea for reception.
"Oh, my lord, you really have the means, this tea brick is of the highest quality, right?" said Baron Rocas with a sip.
"Oh yes, you know, I'm a sixth-level druid, and so, through certain channels, I got a set of silver tea vessels, as well as this tea brick. ”
"Oh, it's hard to go, but these tea bricks, you should cut them into small pieces and wax them, otherwise they will get damp soon. and lose quality. The baron suddenly realized, and pointed again, but his heart was shocked.
This kind of untouched large tea brick of high quality is too precious, even the baron himself is reluctant to buy this large piece at one time.
At the same time, there is a new assessment of Romon Level 6 Druid, there is such a channel and ability
What?
I heard Romon say in astonishment, "Oh, baron, you are so learned, if it weren't for you, I would have wasted this tea brick." ”
Hearing this, Baron Rocas couldn't help but feel a little proud, and Miss Ebonnie, who was next to her, almost squirted out milk tea with a "poof".
If the druids didn't even know how to preserve this tea brick, that's news.
But this is a must, said a few words around the tea brick, and after the atmosphere was generated, the baron said again: "It is worthy of being a person from Rika Town, I really did not misunderstand you, come to help, haha, I came today, I am here to fulfill the promise made last time, and transfer the territory of Suda Village to you." ”
After listening to this, Luo Meng secretly pulled his mouth, maintaining a faint and somewhat respectful expression, but in his heart, Luo Meng was already secretly sneering.
This is the way it should be, and it seems to be a gift when you look at it.
However, Romon is not ready to spoil this atmosphere, anyway, the territory is in his hands, and it is king.
The map of Rocas slowly unfolded. There was a mark on it, and soon, the location of the village of Suda was found, and the baron looked at the village, and his heart was extremely distressed, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Pastor, please witness!"
The grey priest nodded and stood up. From now on, he fulfilled the responsibilities entrusted to him by the god of order.
"Lord Tatshao, this is the contract for the transfer of the territory, it has been prepared, there are three copies in total, one for you and one for me. The other copy will be kept in the temple for safekeeping, you can take a look, and if you don't have any opinions, sign it!" the baron took out the pre-prepared deed.
Romon took the agreement out, and at first his expression remained calm, and at the end, a sarcastic smile appeared.
Seeing this sarcastic smile, the baron couldn't help but feel a sigh in his heart.
"Baron Roccas, do you want to turn me into a vassal?" said Romon coldly, not ready to give him a little face.
Turning his face was like turning a book, which immediately surprised everyone present.
The baron did not expect Romon to react so violently.
Miss Elini glared at her father, stood up, took the document and looked at it, and changed color: "Father, how can you be like this".
This world is dominated by the relationship between feudal kings and vassals.
In ancient times, it was layers of control, and the king was the feudal lord of the duke.
The duke is also the marquis's vassal and obtains the marquis's allegiance.
The marquis is also the earl's feudal lord, and obtains the earl's allegiance.
And so on, all the way up to the knight's allegiance to the baron, however, the reality of the relationship. Of course, it is much more complicated, first of all, this system is too fragmented, and theoretically, the king cannot even directly command the marquis. The inability to interfere with vassals not only made the king almost a puppet, but also made mobilization very cumbersome, unable to cope with complex forms.
Therefore, in order to cope with the complicated situation and strengthen the royal power, the whole continent basically officially entered the model of "all nobles are loyal to the king only", that is, although the nobles at all levels have dignity and inferiority. But theoretically, they are all vassals of the king, and there is no relationship between vassals and vassals.
Of course, this system is not thorough, if a nobleman gives land to a minor nobleman, the minor nobleman still bears many obligations to this nobleman, which is close to vassal. Accountability to the king and nobles at the same time.
With the sealed soil, there is the duty of service, and this iron rule still exists today.
Originally, this time, it was a reward, and the baron gave it to the small mining village of Romon now, but now, if the lord changes to Romon and gives this land as a fief, then Romon will in fact become a semi-vassal in law, and it will be clear that he should bear the obligation, especially after the notarization of the god of order, it cannot be lifted. This is also one of the contractual features of the law.
"Romon, I didn't know about it!" Miss Elenie, who was very clear-headed, turned to the baron and said, "Father, you must have taken the wrong paper!"
In fact, it is impossible to get it wrong. But it's a down step.
Seeing that the baron was still a little hesitant, Miss Elenie was anxious. How can the father be so short-sighted, it is simply a fraud, and once it makes a big fuss, with the promise of the previous letters1 evidence in hand, the Church of the God of Order will definitely give a judgment against the baron.
After a while, he said with some embarrassment: "Yes, I took it wrong!"
The agreement was redrafted. This time, it was Miss Elenie who did it herself. Write in a few moments
。
Priest of the God of Order. After witnessing, sign.
Romon didn't have a good face to show the baron at this time, he waved his hand, and said, "Lord Baron." Sorry, but lately in a streak. I'm a little tired.
This is the eviction order.
Miss Elenie bit her red lip in distress, thinking that her father was too stupid and that Romon was too cold. She didn't say anything, accepted the deed, and left the villa.
Only then did they get to the carriage. Miss Eleni couldn't bear it anymore: "Father, why do you want to do this?"
"He was originally from my town, and he was my lord!" the baron was also very angry: "I didn't expect that once I got my will, I would have this face." ”
Miss Alini was really angry and anxious, she didn't know what to say, she was stunned for a moment before she said, "Father, what are your ideas, if you don't say it, I really won't help you!"
Wasn't I requisitioned from the city, and fighting demons was dangerous. Romon has four. Knight. Even if he doesn't go. I also want to transfer two knights to follow, so it's much safer. After a moment of silence, the baron finally told the truth.
"You can't use this kind of means, you are bullying Luo Meng is a new nobleman, I don't know the inside joints, now I have completely offended Luo Meng. Miss Eleni pressed her forehead, speechless.
Romon now has five squadrons of cavalry, and is a sixth-level druid, and has established great achievements, and the future is limitless, now even if he is a viscount and a bishop in the city, he doesn't want to offend when he is idle, and he can't imagine that the baron is so clever that he is smart.
However, what the baron considered was true, being requisitioned to fight in the city, of course, it was very dangerous, if there were a few knights to protect it, it would not only be able to get some merits, but also ensure safety.
Glancing at the baron, Miss Elenie sighed and said, "Father, go back, this matter." I'll talk to Romon about it. ”
said. He ordered the carriage to stop, and came down by himself, and let the baron go again.
Back to the villa. Miss Eleni's heart sank, and she saw that Romon was giving the order and was about to evacuate, and at this moment Lulun was getting into a carriage with three boxes.
"Romon, why are you?" asked Miss Elenie.
"The demons in the vicinity have been concentrated, there should be no demons in the vicinity of Rika Town and the castle, I want to retreat, it is said that the demons in the mining area have also migrated, I am afraid that there are still remnants of the little demons in it, ready to sweep down." "For Alini Xiaoming, Luo Meng still has a good attitude.
This was a very good reason, and Miss Elenie could not object, and after a moment of silence, she finally said, "Romone, I will discuss a matter with you. ”
"Oh, Miss Elenie, you used to be kind to me, what's the matter. Just say. The words were very polite, but when Miss Ai Dingni heard it, she felt bitter.
At this time, though. I didn't care about anything else, so she told me about it.
"Since it's Miss Alie's request, then I'll agree, but. There were only knights, no soldiers, and Luo Meng frowned, and said, "That's the knight of Yanbid, and Fafer!" (To be continued)
