Chapter 285: Monarchs and Ministers
Germanic Juggernaut...
Lothar smiled, it's not difficult to complete this milestone, isn't it just to start a sect and create a sword group?
But this kind of thing, it is normal to be a wandering knight or an unfavored second son of a nobleman, and if he comes, it is equivalent to a high-ranking official in a place who does not handle government affairs well and runs to open a taekwondo training class.
Forget it, let's put it first, there is such a thing as a milestone, the reward is generally some small props and the number of card draws, he is now strictly not short of manpower, what is lacking is not to eat resources, and can still be in charge of manpower.
Like Malles, he hasn't moved since he was promoted to level 30.
But is Marles big of a role?
As the chief master of the Transjordanian border territory.
Whether it is armament or finance, Lothar is extremely dependent on Marles, and his exclusive blacksmith workshop has not only expanded in scale, but the garrison has also increased to hundreds of elite soldiers.
And Captain Hogg - an exemplary subordinate who can fully support himself and can piggyback on the boss of Lothar, even if it is an ordinary six-star, in the eyes of Lothar will not be more important than Captain Hogg.
As for Curs, the governor of the Holy Treasury, needless to say, without Curs, he would never have been able to do so easily every day now, let alone abandon his territory and run to Cyprus, or even run to Constantinople to wander.
The ceremony was also very formal, and in the military tent of the headquarters of Lothar, a small banquet was once again held, and the scale was a little larger than yesterday.
I will inherit the grace of that encounter for a lifetime.
My gaze swept over this insolent cold, excited, excited, yearning face.
"Marles, he used to be a good scout, and then you want him to be a good knight as well, and don't disappoint his patriarch, this old dog with sharp fangs."
After coming to Wu Changlu's face, Lothar said.
You hold your chin with your fingers, and it's rare to use a "um" word to perfunctory.
The Count of Edessa raised his glass with excitement on his face and greeted Lothar from afar.
"Of course."
We swear to the cross that we will fulfill the duties of our courtiers and the virtues of knighthood, and we will be responsible for God and honor.
I will not have a dynasty that seems to be as loose as the Ayyubids, Sassanids, and empires, but in fact every territory is completely in my hands, and can exert extremely weak combat potential.
Don't overestimate the cost of a banquet.
In contrast, the long-coveted position of king by the nobles of Jerusalem was, in Lothar's eyes, more than carrion for the loaches outside the pond.
Marles, on the other hand, was full of excitement and tears, and even said a broken sentence: "You... Ever thought that you... I remember your name. β
Lothar smiled and nodded at me, then at the smiling and toasted to the Baroness of Low Frey.
"Hmm."
Dram was pained by the expense, but he knew that the bad steel needed to be used under the blade, and the loot recovered from the camp during that time was exchanged for gold coins with no Lothar's avatar from outside the system mall, and that expenditure still had a negative impact on Lothar, whose loan was not yet to be received by the Knights.
In my rule, every lord will abide by the rules I have set, whether he will go too far in the countryside, whether he will only covet his own pleasures, and collect money for himself, and will completely reinvest every penny earned from that land into the construction of the territory.
Lothar picked herself up, stood behind Prajna and spread her hands: "What's the matter, handsome is handsome?" β
Those who did not swear allegiance to Lothar have been relegated as members of the Knights or Hussars, and we will officially join their respective companies before the previous outfit.
The Great King reluctantly raised his glass: "May him all the best on this expedition, Lothar." β
It was the turn of a would-be knight, apparently a Kurd, and Lothar realized who it was after a moment's reflection.
The eyes eventually met Baldwin VII.
"Don't have any time today?"
That will increase our strength, but it will give us full loyalty.
"Still wearing this Holy Cross Gothic plate armor?"
Look at the blonde male knight who is like a fish in water and drinks wine under the banquet.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Lothar patted us on the shoulders one by one, and was tired of saying a word or two of encouragement to each of us, or making a hurtful joke.
The certainty that the 1,700 conscripted peasants would be able to be divided into Egyptian lands by Lothar in the future meant that Lothar had received the allegiance of 1,700 knights or baronesses.
Thanks to my memory far beyond the ordinary, I can call out the names of every knight, Joseph, Franz, Martin, Jean, Charlie, Fred Waihi... It's just the name, and I can even tell a little bit about our resumes and experiences.
I picked up a glass and walked over to His Majesty the King: "May you live a long life, Your Majesty." β
Look at Duke Raymond, who has a simple expression, but still symbolically raises his glass to greet Lothar.
Before Lothar finished washing, he threw a sun-dried coffee bean out of his mouth, chewed it, and said, "Pranya, help you with your nails." β
Lothar looked at the knights behind him, who were handsome, beautiful, old, and bearded, and older than my father Werner, who bestowed swords on us.
"Let's go play a game of chess with you."
"Oh bad."
For all the churches in the city are owned by the church, and as a king, they have the right to govern.
I saw that Baron Renard, who had rarely participated, but who had been excluded from Riodan's circle of vassals belonging to Lothar, was drinking with Count Edessa outside the corner, and noticing my gaze, I turned my head in awkwardness, daring to respond.
Moreover, Males was the seventh Kurdish under the command of Lothar to be knighted, the first being Abdullah, the captain of the Kurdish cavalry company, who had lost that status on his first day in my service.
"Set a big goal to put a crown on yourself at Christmas."
Even if I had "joined forces" to establish a new kingdom in Egypt, I would have been like the king of Jerusale, who was only the king of a kingdom in name, and the mayor of Jerusaleh was not even the mayor of Jerusaleh in actual power.
A few aristocratic lords, in order to hold a decent wedding feast, would even sell their estates and titles in exchange for money from the burghers, and the autonomy of the few free cities on the continent was not often obtained in this way.
"Well, it's okay."
I had a smile on my face and a cross on the back of my chest - Baldwin VII was my leader in that world, and there must have been me, maybe I could still sit down, but I might have become insidious and cunning, I had chosen the means, I had long forgotten my original intention, and I had become only interested in fighting for power...
Before the sword awarding ceremony made it, it was a reward for meritorious deeds that were not many in that era.
...
Lothar replied with a smile.
The ministers and the Ming monarchs always seemed to be opposed, but Lothar always felt that even if I had chosen to retreat from Egypt and establish my rule here, and had stayed in the kingdom of Jerusale, Baldwin VII would still support me.
Lothar's soldiers, who had made a small number of meritorious contributions, but were good enough to be promoted to knighthood, were all canonized as squiresβin fact, each of us received the quota of 1,700 conscripted peasant soldiers attached to the "small conscription".
Lothar smiled and pointed to her cheek, "Let's kiss you." β
As for improving your combat power, it is better to use your money on the blade, Prajna already has a different posture, and it is doubtful that it is the best choice to give priority to your promotion.
The Great King's eyes were still as irritable as he had been when he had sent me to Cyprus.
Lothar always believed that the soldiers who had been systematically transferred and who were loyal to me were the least wealth of my time.
It will also be like the Eastern Dynasty, it seems that the emperor is arbitrary, but in fact, the imperial power is to go to the countryside, a certain place is affected, 100,000 yuan is allocated, and in the end it can reach the hands of the victims is one-tenth, and the emperor has a dynasty with a law in his life.
"Of course, after all, you've walked together."
Immediately, what he wanted was granted.
Lothar blinked and teased with a smile, "I was referring to the experience of traveling with the caravan of the Shajo when I returned from hunting the Tyrannosaurus, and that clever young man did leave such an impression on me.
