Vol 4 Chapter 83: Hereditary succession

In this world, the best people to fool are civilians. That's how the word Yumin came about. They only believe in what they see in their eyes, and they rarely think deeply about why? Even if several civilians are together, they will not take the initiative to discuss. They are more willing to tell everyone around them what they have heard from others, especially the higher-level nobles or soldiers, in order to show that they are knowledgeable.
Looking at the children, parents, relatives, and neighbors lying in the pool of blood, they can accurately recall the fierce face of the knights in red armor, raised the saber high, and chopped off the heads of their loved ones. Falling down, and watching the man who was seen as a life-and-death enemy a few minutes ago crouched on the ground and carefully carried away the dead and bandaged the wounded. The kind-hearted people changed their positions without any hesitation. Some people have even begun to scold the sweaty mercenary regiment.
Su Wen transferred his horse to Changqing, with a cold or even cold smile on his lips: "Boy, arrange for someone to report this to General Chi Er. The Black Dragon Knights killed 23 people and injured 31. The enemy battle Nearly 900 people were killed and no less than 700 injured. "The speaker could not calm down anymore.
"Yes, Uncle Su." As a teenager, Chang Qing didn't learn to be ruthless and ruthless, glanced at the wailing crowd subconsciously. The teenager can even clearly feel that his conscience is sinking into the boundless darkness, hesitating for a moment, and then only Three elven vulture knights were dispatched and flew in the direction of the setting sun.
"Take good care of the injured residents and send the injured residents to the nearest village, leaving 200 women to take care of them. Damn, the rabbits do n’t eat the nest grass, this group of sweat blood mercenaries really go down Hand. For every injured resident, send 10 gold coins to surprise. "Su Wenyin removed the smile on his face and turned to roar loudly at his men.
The killing hill Su Wen became famous in one battle ... one will be famous in the end ...
Stealing chickens is not an eclipse, the word is used to describe the mood of the chief of the mercenary regiments such as the Iron Hand Barrier and Han Han. However, everything has been thought of. The only thing that has been neglected is that the other party regards civilians as The best tool for siege knights. In that short span of more than 10 minutes, a thousand-person team was buried inside. Now think about it. There is nothing really surprising about the enemy's practice. The only way the other side threatens the residents is to consume the defenders. This is only applied in advance. If you are the commander of the sweaty mercenary regiment, even if you know in advance that you will face a sneak attack, the response will only be limited to the ambush of conventional means ... certainly not like the enemy has made full use of the time and geography, and set up A near-perfect trap. If it were n’t for the Dragon Knights to participate in the battle, the three Thousands would be lucky to be able to come back with 1,000 people-it is conceivable that the enemies of the knight eagles would bite and chase in the air. It is retreating.
The five major A-level mercenary regiments include only one S-level mercenary regiment. Each mercenary regiment has its own unique mount, and these mounts are suitable for entering the frozen continent in different places. Any mercenary regiment can No need to compete with the Silver Snow Wolf Mercenary Corps. Not even the S-Class Golden Dragon Mercenary Corps that has disappeared. Similarly, entering the hilly area, that is the world of the original Xuanqing Land Dragon Mercenary Corps. The river and lake zone is the territory of another legendary mercenary regiment that has such powerful mounts as giant crocodiles. In the prairie, the sweat-blooded mercenary regiment is the hegemon who does not want to let go, and there is even a main force of thousands of people with 400 horses per day. Unexpectedly, the most famous small mercenary regiment had a mount that turned out to be a wild eagle. There are some advantages, and when it reaches a certain level, it is difficult to follow suit. Other mercenary groups can also buy and breed vultures, and eventually have a certain number of flying units, but the number is difficult to reach the size of small mercenary groups, and, even more terrible, small mercenary groups are now quite Most krypton knights are forest elves that can communicate with animals, which cannot be imitated at all. Even if a knight eagle knight unit can form a battle force, what can it do? It really has to be regarded as a thorn in the eyes of the small mercenary regiment. Once the war between the two sides broke out, this force must be eliminated first. This kind of thing had not been done without mercenaries before.
A few months ago, the Xuanqing Landing Dragon and the Golden Dragon Mercenary Corps were officially delisted by the Mercenary Guild at the same time-the Mercenary Guild is still in the hands of several mercenary kings, of course they will not be merciless, and, mercenaries Once the regiment is officially organized by a certain country, it is indeed necessary to cancel the status of the mercenary regiment.
Hum ... Han Han smiled bitterly, the continent was in dispute, and the countries were in dispute. Now, the major mercenaries are also in dispute, hey ... the two major mercenaries that had resentment with the small mercenaries before. They all disappeared, and I do n’t know if the fate of sweaty iron riders is the same.
Of course, the Iron Hand Barrier knew the meaning of his deputy's bitter smile, and patted him on the shoulder lightly: "Stop the city, anyway, the task given to us by His Majesty the Pope this time is only for this. Also, once again remind the Archer Thousand People team, they must arrive before tomorrow afternoon! "
Prior to this, the sweat-blooded mercenary regiment took advantage of geographical advantages and finally had a unique grassland elf archer battalion within two years. The grassland elves are generally 10 cm taller than the forest elves. The average height of male residents is between 175 and 178 cm. The bow used is the longest known in the hands of archers and the average is between 150 and 170 cm. In terms of bow force only, In terms of range, the prairie elves and the forest elves are equally divided.
It is worth everyone's attention that the grassland elves are natural wind magic masters. With the help of wind elves, the magic arrows they shoot are like wings with wings, far more than ordinary forest elves.
In terms of city defense, there is no more suitable occupation than the prairie elves. If this army really played a role 100%, then even if Chi Aotian coerced 100,000 residents to come to attack the city, he would definitely return with hatred. However, the elves are all kind spokesmen. In the face of tens of thousands of unarmed civilians, even white-haired old men and children with high stools, the two heads of the elves will fully show their trueness to these elves. The level is skeptical.
Just when several regiments of the sweat-blooded mercenary regiment sighed, Chi Aotian had told Qingluo to notify Su Wen and Ta Yang to close the team as soon as possible and to regroup under Rhodes Town again at the stipulated time.
The 6th year of the magic calendar, January 2, at 4pm.
Under the surveillance of the soldiers, the long snake array of more than 24,000 residents wrapped in the Tayan Legion slowly entered the Black Dragon Knights Battalion. Under Rhode City, the perimeter of the invaders ’camp had exceeded 5 kilometers, and countless white A black dragon banner was mixed in the mourning flag, and smoke was rising from the camp.
The guard vulture knight rushed in from the northwest to lower the mount and rushed into the big camp. The two elves fell in front of Chi Aotian's account almost at the same time: "Report-Deputy Chief Chi, the Imperial Army came to see."
Oh, Chi Aotian is discussing the next day's siege with major military officers such as Tayang and Su Wen. Is the military coming? Chi Aotian's face changed slightly, it wouldn't be that his grandfather returned to the military to preside over the overall situation. Hearing about the series of battles in Huayu Nanjiang, send someone to intervene ... Thinking of this, the teenager shook his head subconsciously, the speed could not be so fast. Moreover, in terms of the young people's understanding of the old man, the death of Uncle Chi Hanfeng must have been a knot in the old man's heart. If the empire was not under tremendous pressure, the old man would really be dismantled and returned to the army. How could he return to the army?
"Please." Tayang observed Chi Aotian's expression keenly, and before that, Tayan had learned from the mouth of the Black Dragon Knights that Chi Aotian's expedition did not seem to have been recognized by the heads of the military department. , Would n’t it be to deprive the young man of his command. The old priest immediately invited Qu Jianhong, who was recovering from the injury, and Chang Qing, who was in charge of warning to Rhodes City, both of them were in a hurry. If something happens, I would like to have a few sharp guns.
Ten minutes later, the sound of the raptor's passing sounded again, and then came the roar of the raptor.
As soon as the officers such as Chi Aotian walked out of the tent, they saw four Eudemons knights fall in the sky, among which there were gorgeous tigers. Among the four knights, three were wearing the armor made by the colorful dragon knights, and one person He even wore the standard clothing of the imperial officials.
The young man was stunned. The people of this imperial official seemed to have seen it, but ... Chi Aotian did not like to communicate, and the compliments for anyone were generally on the perfunctory level.
"Your Excellency Chi Aotian, came under the imperial army and officials to award the medals of honor to the soldiers who fought for thousands of miles in the Huayu Plain." The young Eudemons knight jumped from the back of the tiger, despite the fatigue of his journey. Dust, but youth clothing is very neat.
"Oh, your Excellency is ..."
"We have seen Ming Yang, the chief executive of the Ministry of Public Affairs." The young people smiled kindly.
Chi Aotian had the impression that in the night of the imperial capital, this young man was also one of the important ministers who accompanied the emperor's fleeing. At that time, it seemed to be a second-level minister. Now from the perspective of clothing, he has already become a first-level minister. Chi Aotian breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Excellency is working hard all the way."
"Your Majesty the Redstone has a purpose." Ming Yang, who has been awarded the title of Count of the Empire, raised his hand to show the Tiger Rune issued by the Imperial Army. The blue magic light jumped on the Tiger Rune and executed a long, calm and steadfast flower language. It sounded in the Black Dragon Knights camp: "The soldiers of the Black Dragon Knights and the Little Mercenary Regiment. Since the expedition in the winter of the magical calendar for 5 years, they have commanded the commanders, the soldiers have their lives, they are invincible, they are invincible, and they are loyal to the country. The Imperial Army The ministry appraisal was promoted to Deputy Chief of the Small Mercenary Corps, His Excellency Chi Aotian, concurrently served as the commander of the Imperial Huayu Plain Expeditionary Army, and actually commanded the rank of an imperial war theater. In addition, after the official Xu Xun, Chi Aotian fought bravely, after going through Xilin Island, Several major battles such as the Icebreaker, Hamburg City, etc. have experienced great successes and outstanding achievements. Now, Mr. Chi Aotian is over 20 years old. According to the rule of the imperial officials, Mr. Chi Aotian will be separated from the family of Prince Chi Datong from now on He was promoted to the Duke of the Amy Empire, title: Grand Duke of Flower Language. 300 miles north of Tongyunguan, all of which were sealed as the domain of the Grand Duke.
The officers of the Black Dragon Knights and the Small Mercenary Corps who were gathering together gave a low exclaimation. Good guy, the first was the Grand Duke of the Imperial General and hereditary succession. It seems that His Majesty the Redstone, the Imperial Army The ministry's evaluation of this expedition is quite high.
In the history of the empire, a family wanted to obtain the hereditary Grand Duke title, without the struggle of several generations of heads. During this period, it may require many children to die in the battlefield, otherwise, do not have to think about it. Among the knights of the empire, the worst is the knighthood for life. Once the knight who has obtained the knight died, in addition to the eldest son, he can continue the lowest noble title like the imperial knight, all other descendants have all become civilians; followed by the hereditary knight, except The first-generation successor will be downgraded every generation, even if it is a knighthood like the Grand Duke, after five generations, if the children of future generations do not have too outstanding contributions, they will definitely become imperial knights. The highest-ranking title is the hereditary title, inherited directly by future generations. The total number of nobles above the Marquis of the Amy Empire can not be replaced by more than 20. Including Marshal Chi Datong, who now has Marshal, can only be passed to Marshal Chi Hantong. Starting from Chi Changyun, he will no longer enjoy the Marquis, but only the Grand Duke Tongyun from Chimen for five hundred years.
The officers of the Black Dragon Knights are quite aware that this is also the first hereditary Duke who has branched off from the branch of Chimen in 500 years, which means that from this day, Chi Aotian recorded the Empire in the Imperial Department In the list of nobles, he will sit on equal footing with his grandfather. At the noble event held after the empire, Chi Aotian will attend as the head of the Grand Duke, and such an identity does not even exist in the current Chi Hantong. The 300-mile enclosure, which is the distance between north and south, but there is no distance between things. The area of ​​this enclosure may exceed the Chimen enclosure to pass through the Yunguan Pass. Judging from the territorial area, the empire may have the fifth largest family.
Earl Ming Yang paused for a moment: "In the prince ’s enclosure, 3000 direct guards can be established ~ EbookFREE.me ~ three cities can be built, and three Counts, twelve Viscounts, and 20 lords can be self-registered to help manage territories. "" A shocked look appeared on the officers' faces again. The Tongyunchi family now has only five subordinate cities, of which two are relatively small and barely bigger than the town, but they also have a direct title of Marquis of Tongyun, 5 viscounts and 15 lords. Immediately, everyone understood the appointment of the official, Chi Aotian has no heirs, these knights should be prepared by the official for the expeditionary army. This means that, within the domain of the Grand Duke of Huayu, these knighthoods can be granted by generations, and these knighthoods may even have a fief, which has indirectly enjoyed hereditary succession.
"According to the assessment of the imperial officials, His Excellency Qu Jianhong, the captain of the imperial noble Black Dragon Knights, was separated from the original family comrades, and was promoted to the Count of the Empire. Life, all Black Dragon Knights soldiers who participated in the expeditionary army will be promoted to one level, and all the mercenaries of the small mercenary regiments participating in the expeditionary army will enjoy the treatment of the rank of imperial guerrilla. "Hearing such great good news, all the expeditionary army The soldiers burst into joyful cheers at the same time!
Before Count Ming Yang left Hamburg City, he did n’t know that Chi Aotian ’s army had begun to mobilize the people and join the war, nor did they know that the original frozen continent soldier Su Wen, the original priest Tayang and others participated in the war, of course, even less Know that the elder elder Qingluo has the honor of the 12th in the soul list, otherwise, this award will be longer.
Before the second offensive and defensive warfare in Rhodes Town, Earl Ming Yang, who descended from the sky, not only brought the title of hereditary Duke, but also sprinkled the red blood into the vast ocean of wandering sharks, and the seawater suddenly boiled. , Smelling the shark, he showed his sharp teeth to Rhodes Town.
