The appearance of a new sacred tree immediately made the people forget about this abominable Jew.

In their eyes, this is an insignificant little person.

In fact, they don't mind the soldiers under them being drained of their wallets, on the contrary, the poorer and more dispossessed soldiers, the more they will be filled with a thirst for wealth, not like a miser.

Soldiers who spend their wealth on wine and wine are far more willing to fight than those who save that money or invest it in real estate.

"It's a miracle!"

"It is Heavenly Father's praise for our piety!"

"I used to think that the territory of Arish and Ferraimai was barren and barren, but it still needed a lot of money to bail out, and it was a disgusting negative asset, and the Duke gave this barren land to the knight of Jeanne, which was too harsh, and I didn't expect that a divine tree would be born immediately."

"A country flowing with milk and honey – this is a country flowing with milk and honey!"

Someone danced and shouted: "This fertile land, under the pagan possession, has lost its former glory, and with the Christians regaining the diocese of Alexandria, Egypt will become a true heaven on earth!" ”

"Shenmu?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Lionheart's face.

Before he came, he had heard that there was a huge oak tree in the territory of Transjordan, which led to the horizon, and when he came to the Holy Land, he heard that there seemed to be another sacred tree in the diocese of Aramdel.

Immediately after that, today, a third tree popped up again.

Didn't the queen say that this thing was a sacred relic of the Druidic religion of the Celts?

Why is this holy relic still wholesaled?

Lothar glanced at the burly and handsome king with an indifferent expression, he had not intended to announce the birth of the third tree of life so early, the new seed plant did not grow quickly, and it was not like the mother, which had the flesh and blood of a dragon just planted.

It's better to have fewer people disturbing you.

Once the news spreads, there will definitely be many pious people who simply want to see the miracles and have fun going to investigate.

However, as a child plant, the will of the mother plant of the Tree of Life can also be extended, and when it comes, the size of the mother plant of the Tree of Life is also considered a god, and after obtaining Osiris's broken staff, the idle spellcaster may not be his opponent.

"Brothers, this is the Father's reward for us, and it is also the urging and expectation of us, Damietta is only the beginning, Bilebes, Cairo, Alexandria—even Antioch, Edessa, Seleucia, Tarsus in the north..."

Lothar described the prospects of the Crusaders in a serious tone: "We will recover the territories that the Empire had fallen to the Saracens, and in the east, establish an overseas kingdom belonging to our Crusaders."

Brothers, we are fighting for God, but we are also fighting for ourselves! ”

"Hurrah, fight for God."

"Heavenly Father is above, and we are ready to march on!"

"Lord Duke, as soon as you give the order, we will immediately assemble and attack the cowardly infidels!"

The Crusader lords listened to Lotsad's description as if they had seen the lush olive groves, the rice paddies with abundant water and grass, the golden endless wheat fields that were blown by the wind and set up waves...

In the previous battles, they had gained a lot, and the robbery of these Saracen nobles was much richer than the robbery of the nobles of the European continent.

Moreover, the number of nobles who participated in the crusade was quite large, and compared to the land and estates of the province of Damietta, there was not much left after the annexed estates of Damietta.

The wolf has more meat and less meat, and only a small number of nobles have obtained fiefs, although for this they have also received an additional share of the spoils, but sooner or later the spoils will be spent, how can they be compared with a noble title that can be passed on to future generations?

A knight stepped forward quickly, held the sword in his hand, and said, "Lord Duke, I have led my army in this battle to take a castle called Tinis, and I am willing to sacrifice it to you in exchange for your protection." ”

Lothar smiled and took the saber in his hand: "Of course, my knight. ”

As he spoke, he put his sword on his shoulder, "From this day forward, you are the Baron of Tinis..."

Only then did the group suddenly realize, and those who had obtained the fief came forward to swear an oath to Lothar.

But there were also some people who showed hesitation, and from time to time their eyes swept to the Lionheart King, who was watching the ceremony with great interest.

Sebastian looked gloomy, and couldn't help but curse in his heart, Come on, if you continue to sit back and watch like this, isn't it equivalent to recognizing the self-proclaimed duke title of Lothar, a transgressor?

Unbeknownst to everyone, although Richard did not recognize Lothar's self-proclaimed title, he didn't want to tear his face directly with Lothar at this time, and after he came to the Holy Land, he found that Lothar's prestige and supporters were far more than he expected.

Before his army arrived, his current strength was not enough to compete with Lothar.

He was arrogant, but he wasn't stupid.

The ceremony went well.

Uldin was pulled out by Lotha and acted as the presiding officer of the ceremony.

Sebastian thought that someone would stand up and say a few words of justice, but who would have thought that this bishop, who came from a small family and was in tattered clothes all the time, was also quite prestigious, and no one stood up to express dissent.

The ceremony was soon over, and Lothar had harvested more than twenty large and small vassals, including several noble lords who had never visited Lothar in private before, and Lothar did not show any abnormality, all of them were treated equally.

Among these vassals, there were no lords of civilian origin at all, either noble heirs from the continent with a whole army of knights of the Guard, or native nobles of the Crusaders from the East.

It is too difficult for ordinary soldiers to complete the class jump, and it is already a great luck to become a squire or a "quasi-noble" like a knight.

Many of the descendants of Lothar's lineage, as well as some of the ordinary soldiers who had joined his army, were given honorary titles, and a small fief from the estates around Damietta, which had formerly belonged to the governor of Ibn.

It's just that this kind of fiefdom is not a real fief and cannot be inherited.

The ceremony ended quickly.

At this time, a nobleman of the Gallic family stood up and said: "Lord Duke, we need more supplies, you will not allow us to encroach on the estates of those infidels, what can we use to feed our army?" ”

Before Lothar could speak, a fan immediately rebuked angrily: "Your Excellency just does not allow you to plunder the commoners, and the wealth taken from the heretic chieftains, can't you satisfy your greedy and contemptible appetite?" ”

The crowd was outraged.

Even a few nobles who had a very good relationship with him glared at him.

The Gallic nobleman said: "Not everyone is so lucky, we encountered an extremely strong castle, which has many defenders and strong defenses, and after finally gnawing down, we found that the nobles in the castle had already broken out with their belongings. ”

He said cautiously, "Lord Duke, we need provisions. ”

Lothar frowned.

It was customary for the crusaders to be responsible for their own provisions, and a considerable part of the supplies came from the Kingdom of Jerusalem, especially the grain that arrived from the port of Ella, which was also a part of Lothar's contribution.

But he couldn't afford all the Crusaders, and he didn't have the ability to do so.

"I will give you a part of the baggage supplies sent by the kingdom."

Lothar thought for a moment, then said.

The nobles of the Gallic clan hurriedly thanked them and returned to the ranks.

However, as Richard expected, people came forward one after another to ask for supplies, not to be outnumbered but to suffer from unevenness, and it stands to reason that as long as Lothar opened this opening, there would be a steady stream of people asking for supplies!

Richard was puzzled.

According to his thinking, he should take the initiative to relieve Lothar at this time, and take the opportunity to share the power and responsibilities of the commander with him.

But the problem is that many of the Crusader lords present seem to be high-spirited people, although there are a few of them who have instructed him to ask for supplies, but the number is not much, and it is completely within the tolerance of Lothar.
