Because it is equipped with a large number of magic crystal cannons, magic airships, and energy projection weapons, Haaland leads the army to be extremely powerful. But this brings up another problem, Haaland's army is extremely dependent on logistics to fight.

Every time the magic crystal cannon is launched, and every time the magic airship flies, a large amount of magic crystals need to be consumed. Although Haaland has mastered the magic crystal charging technology, a large-scale war will seriously deplete the inventory.

In fact, after nearly three months of fighting, Haaland's army has consumed more than 80,000 magic crystals.

80,000 magic crystals, equivalent to about 60% of the inventory.

The decline in the Magic Shard Reserve will actually seriously affect combat operations. Because of this problem, Richard carefully weighed it in his heart and decided to accept it as soon as he saw it, so as to avoid getting involved in a larger war.

Richard had the heart to avoid war, and the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level had lost their fighting spirit because they had captured a large amount of booty. Although this army still has the strength to fight last, some of its forces have been blunted.

The war has developed to the present, and the United Kingdom on the East Coast has lost most of its territory, relying only on the capital Kanas Castle to support itself.

And the alliance of the four marquis and the third earl of the Grant Kingdom, despite their large numbers and poor ability to attack fortifications, besieged the city for a month and a half, and they were unable to conquer Kanas Castle at all.

Seeing that the Kingdom of Grant had once again won a great victory, the Archon of the United Kingdom on the East Coast wrote a letter to Rosen, the envoy of the Holy Radiance Empire, hoping that the Holy Radiance Empire would intervene.

Although the news of the emissary sent on the east coast was very secretive, the information coincidentally fell into the ears of the Haaland Command intelligence department.

The Haaland Collar intelligence system has penetrated deeply on the east coast, and the United Kingdom intelligence station on the east coast alone has more than 1,000 intelligence officers.

The foreign intelligence system is not only responsible for intelligence work, but also manages and controls the smuggling department, and has in its hands not only administrative appropriations from the higher authorities, but also smuggled goods and profits from operating industries.

Haaland is in possession of the Dream Tree, a magical plant. After obtaining the Dream Tree, Richard immediately removed the leaves from the Dream Tree and gave them to the stationmasters of the various intelligence stations of the Foreign Intelligence Agency. Richard has already left an imprint on the Dream Tree, and can rely on the Dream Tree to enter the dreams of the stationmasters of various intelligence stations and communicate with the subconscious.

Using the power of the Dream Tree, key informants can transmit information back to headquarters in their dreams.

With the help of this strange magic radio, the Harland Command Intelligence Service does not need to set up a complex intelligence transmission system and cross a heavily guarded border.

In recent years, although the counterintelligence service of the United Kingdom on the east coast has caught some Harland Collar intelligence officers, they are all peripheral members. There were not many losses, and the intelligence services did not leave much of a flaw for the enemy.

With the help of the legendary magical plant Dream Tree, Harland's intelligence department is empowered, and the transmission of information is not only secretive but also very convenient.

Although Richard is leading troops outside and cannot communicate with the backbone intelligence officers through the Dream Tree, there are still three people on the Dream Tree who can leave a mark. When Richard and Sophia entered the Red Moon plane, they had already left a mark on Wendini and mastered the intelligence system instead of Richard.

The head of intelligence for Haaland on the East Coast is named Stevens Hogan, a very capable and ambitious man, a man of noble blood and a native of the East Coast Kingdom. Over the years, Hogan's relationships have been deeply rooted within the United Kingdom on the East Coast and have almost penetrated into the East Coast core.

In particular, the four mercenary leaders from the East Coast, Rand, Gutmann, Hagenting, and Hoffmann, were successfully knighted in Haaland, and with the help of their family connections, Haaland led to deeper penetration into the East Coast intelligence system.

All four of Rand are of noble blood, even though they are members of a distant branch and cannot be equated with the descendants of the Raiders.

But now that Haaland is in full swing, the United Kingdom on the East Coast is in a life-and-death crisis.

In order to keep the hereditary title and glory, the main family of the four Rand desperately grabbed every straw, and in fact, they had secretly taken refuge in Harland's collar and fell into the control of Stevens.

The consul of the United Kingdom on the east coast sent the escort of the envoy, who happened to be from the family of the Count of Bellaini, and Hogan immediately informed Wendini of the news through this line. Wendini was quickly delivering information to Richard through the Lion Cavalry.

Richard knew in his heart that the Divine Radiance Empire was just a-stirring stick if it wanted to maintain a balanced policy among the eastern states.

The rise and fall of the eastern kingdoms for a thousand years has hidden the shadow of the Divine Glorious Empire behind it. Once the news reaches the envoy Rosen, the Divine Radiance Empire will inevitably come to mediate.

Once Rosen spoke on behalf of the Divine Radiance Empire, the Roger Kingdom would inevitably be unable to withstand the pressure, give up some of its interests, and accept the mediation of the Divine Radiance Empire.

Such a situation was something that Richard was unwilling to accept.

After receiving the information from Wendini, Richard immediately wrote a letter to Sutton, asking Sutton to lead the navy of Haaland and help the noble coalition to attack Kanas Castle.

Kanas Castle is not a seaport city, but it is very close to the coastline. Fifty kilometers upstream along the Mayan River, Haaland led the navy to attack Kanas City with the help of the magic crystal cannon.

After receiving Richard's order, Sutton led a magic fleet and relied on the power of the magic crystal cannon to storm Kanas Castle for six days, and finally blew down the city walls and destroyed the city fortifications.

Seeing the collapse of the city wall, Marquis Allen led the alliance of nobles of the Grant Kingdom to break through the Venus Castle in one fell swoop, and destroyed the United Kingdom of the East Coast before the intervention of the Divine Radiance Empire.

After the destruction of the kingdom on the east coast, the battle line of the Delong Kingdom stabilized.

The war lasted three months, and the Kingdom of Grant won a decisive victory, destroying the United Kingdom on the East Coast and annexing more than 1.1 million square kilometers of land. In addition, it also seized nearly 30,000 square kilometers of land in Delong and Lane, which can be described as a brilliant victory recorded in the epic.

Having won such a crucial battle, the top priority is to reward merit and divide the spoils.

The Harland family is already the core family of the Grant Kingdom, and its power can almost compete with the royal family, especially in this war, the Harland family played the most critical role.

The western battle situation relied on Haaland to lead 80,000 troops and block the heavy army group of the Lane Kingdom. The Eastern Front relied on Haaland to lead the navy, which broke the balance and completely annihilated the East Coast Maritime Front.

In the final battle, it was also the navy commanded by Sutton that the defense of Kanas Castle was destroyed and the capital of the east coast was successfully conquered.

Because of the most crucial role they played, the Haaland family should of course prioritize the spoils.

Richard took the map and directly took the most elite territory of the United Kingdom on the east coast and named it Duke of Rex.

With an area of about 280,000 square kilometres, this territory is a truly fertile place for the United Kingdom on the east coast, and the capital city of Kanas Castle is also in this territory. The total population of this territory is about 12 million, accounting for 40% of the total population of the East Coast.

The only drawback of the Duke of Rex is that it is located in the southern part of the east coast, bordering the kingdom of Sith, and is located in a border area, which requires a heavy garrison.

The Grant Kingdom has fought wars for more than ten years, although a large amount of land has been expanded, and the strength of the great aristocracy has been greatly expanded, but the loss of national strength is very serious, the people have become war-weary, and the army is also a little exhausted.

The aristocracy was reluctant to seal their territories on the border, which was an important reason why Richard's proposal was not opposed. In today's Kingdom of Grant, there is indeed a need for the Haaland family to take responsibility.

The Duke of Rex was not enough to reward the Haraland family for their success, and after the war, William's title was promoted and the realm expanded to a dukedom.

40,000 square kilometres west of the Gut River were included in the Duchy of William, and the former territory of the Earl of Zachary was incorporated into the Duchy of William. After being promoted to duke, William's territory already had 90,000 square kilometers, but because it was on the front line of the battle between the two armies, the population fled very seriously, adding up to only 8.9 million people.

The Earl of Zachary also gained a lot from this war, he handed over his original territory to William, and allocated 36,000 square kilometers of land in the coastal area on the south bank of the Mara River.

The original four marquis of the east were all promoted after the war.

After conquering Kanas Castle, the Kingdom of Roger made the four eastern marquis into the four dukes, and their territories were also sealed on the western and southern borders of the former East Coast United Kingdom, bordering the three countries of Delon, Maya, and Sith.

Among the four new dukedoms, the Dukedom of Allen is the largest, located in the southwestern part of the former East Coast United Kingdom, bordering the three kingdoms, with a total area of 150,000 square kilometres

The three new dukedoms of Creon, Vicia, and Guevara are about the same size, all of which are more than 100,000 square kilometers, slightly larger than the Duke of William, and have a population of between two and three million.

The original fiefdoms of the four new dukes were recovered by the Grant royal family and a new central province was formed.

The Count of Marcel made more meritorious contributions in this war, and his territory expanded by more than 10,000 square kilometers, and like the Count of Zachary, he married the royal family after the war and brought the ribbon of the Marquis, and the title was slightly promoted. The other four counts had less merit, and just getting a barony was enough to pay for it.

The three dukes of York, Loland, and Duran played a great role in the war, helping the two families of Haaland and Jonathan to block the army of the Ryan Kingdom. The three dukes of Fawkes, Edward, and Guise held back the 200,000 troops of the Delong Kingdom, but they did not win the battle on the Western Front after all, and only received a viscount.

The new fiefdoms of the six dukes on the Western Front were all enclosed in the new dukedoms on the east coast.

Richard directly carved out 3,000 square kilometers of land from the Duke of Ricks, and sealed the third son of Duke Fox on the border with the Sith Kingdom. The new fiefdom of the Edward family was enclosed in the Duke of William.

As for the Jonathan family, they are now independent and can be regarded as an alliance of the Grant Kingdom.

The Western Front didn't take much advantage of this battle, and the Jonathan family didn't have much territory to share. However, several members of the Jonathan family married close branches of the Grant royal family and received one viscount and four baronies from the royal domain.

In addition to the above nobles, the Silver Moon family also took back the territory and restored the status of the great nobles with the support of King Roger.

Silvermoon Island is too close to the core territory of the Grant Kingdom, and if it falls under Richard's control, it is equivalent to directly blocking the door of the Grant Kingdom's access to the sea.

King Roger was reluctant to give it to Richard, and after the two sides reached an exchange of interests, the territory was left to the original owner.

Heaton, the new legendary knight of the Grant family, has also completed the transformation of his status and has been promoted to the great aristocratic class.

The Heaton County is located in the eastern part of the Duke of William, covering an area of nearly 30,000 square kilometers, and like the Duke of William, there are not many people who have suffered from the war.

On the Western Front, Wilde seized the opportunity of the withdrawal of the Kingdom of Lane and led his troops across the Kampa River, controlling about 12,000 square kilometers west of the Kampa River and north of the Mara River. This territory was naturally incorporated into the county of Philip.

The remaining 100,000 square kilometers of land belonged to the Grant royal family, and the Roger Kingdom was ready to separate this territory and give it to the second son Nelson, the eldest son of King Roger, and also to the Duke of Ferdinand.

Although the territory enclosed by the Grant royal family in this war is not large, it has recovered the fiefdoms of the four marquis in the east and established four central provinces, in fact, the royal family has also obtained 300,000 square kilometers of land, and the benefits are second only to the Haaland family, the number one hero.

In addition to the big nobles at the table, there were also thirty-eight new nobles who ate leftovers, and their fiefs were scattered in the territories of the superior feudal lords.

For example, Sutton, who led Haaland's side, Rohm, Soros, Wilde and others.

Sutton, Silver's mother and son are legends, and after years of accumulation, Sutton's exploits are enough to reward a dukedom.

It's just that the Sutton family is thin, and his thoughts are different from ordinary people, although the bloodline is half-elf, but he grew up with his mother Silver, and his thoughts are more similar to elves. A few years ago, Sutton, Silver's mother and son exchanged all their exploits for the land where the elven lock was located, and now the elven tribe all live near the tree of life.

Although Sutton was not keen on land, after Richard wore the crown, he still wanted to give his eldest brother a duke. Sutton's children, as long as they want to become hereditary lords, Richard will give a part of the land to canonize as a reward for Sutton, Silf's mother and son.

Haaland has led to the development of today, and the Sutton family has played a very important role.

The second in line among the heroes is Lao Luomen. The Rohm family has a deep heritage, and a hundred years ago they made great contributions to the kingdom of Grant and obtained the title of viscount. After being incorporated into the Harland Domain, the Rohm family has made many military exploits and has reached the standard of promotion to the great nobles.

It's just that Richard hasn't worn the crown yet, and he can't justifiably canonize the nobles above the earl, and he needs to wait a few more years before the Rohm family can logically be promoted to the big aristocratic class.

In third place is his uncle Soros, who already has eight baronies under his name, and is relatively close to being promoted to earl.

Next is his brother-in-law Jennings, who has also accumulated five baronies under his name, ranking fourth among the heroes.

The fifth place is Wilde, although he was relatively slow to be knighted for meritorious service, and he was unlucky not to catch up with the war meritorious service in the first few times. But in recent years, he has been in charge of the front. Commanding more than 200,000 troops to fight, it was not too difficult to accumulate meritorious service, and in just a few years, Wilde was promoted to viscount.

In addition to the above five, the remaining vassals of the Haaland Leader are all barons, with relatively low influence and have not risen to the decision-making level.
