Chapter 450: Duke of Augustus

The Dragon Forest is a forest that grows on rugged hills. The terrain is extremely complex. The year-round low temperature makes it unsuitable for ordinary people to live in, and most areas are inaccessible.
　　 But in the middle of the forest, a north-south passage was opened many years ago, called Longlin Avenue.
　　 This is also the only road that can pass through the forest and is relatively safe.
　　 From the northern part of the Duchy of Lauberdill, walk into Longlin Avenue. As you go north, the terrain gradually decreases and the temperature is relatively warmer.
The trees on both sides of the avenue are tall and dense, and the roar of wild beasts can be heard from time to time, including dangerous monsters and monsters.
　　Today, the dragon forest finally appeared again.
Aegon, Galadelos, and Sindala, the three giant dragons soaring above the forest, the beasts in the forest have long been unable to feel the horror of the dragon, wherever they go, birds and beasts are everywhere like flies without their heads. Ran around, making a cry of fear.
　　 Some beasts collapsed to the ground, shivering, looking at the master in the sky from the gap in the shade of the tree.
　　 However, the dragon did not land and feasted, and flew over his head in an instant.
　　 Not long after, more voices came.
Many wild beasts are observing the dragon scale avenue in the dark. According to previous experience, this is a good opportunity to hunt food, but more and more humans appear in the field of vision, and everyone exudes a strong aura. So many humans gather. Action, the instinct of beasts can make them turn their heads and run away, far away.
　　 Ryan is riding a bronze Pegasus, running with the gunwing knights on the ground.
　　 The Voice of Everything heard the movement in the depths of the forest, only the sound of beasts running away, and no enemies in ambush, so he looked back.
　　 An army of 12,000 people can't see the end at a glance on Longlin Avenue.
In the middle of the team is Amelis. She is riding on a handsome dragon-blood horse, tightly protected by the blood guards, her beautiful face is full of spirits, and her gestures reveal majesty and nobility. .
　　 "She is becoming more and more like a real queen." Ren said inwardly.
　　 Amelis noticed his gaze, turned her head, and the two of them looked at each other, a sweet smile appeared on her face.
　　 Ren nodded slightly.
　　The marching speed of the dragon descendant army is very fast.
The giant dragon was exploring the way ahead, while the extreme fighters rode the fire dragon to follow on both sides of the army, patrolling from the forest at all times, staying vigilant, the expected surprises and ambushes did not happen, not even an enemy was found, and there was no incident. .
　　 In only half a day, the dragonborn army safely passed the Longlin Avenue.
　　 Coming out of the dragon forest, the field of vision suddenly became extremely broad, the terrain was flat, and you could see dozens of miles away at a glance, and the climate became warmer.
　　 "The territory of Zhuo Gengbao is here!"
　　 Ren heard Varogen who was next to Emily talking loudly.
　　His expression is a bit agitated, as if he has returned to his hometown after a long absence; Astan, who has followed Emily for many years, also has faint red eyes, which shows that his emotions are not calm.
　　 Amelis looked at the land, her chest undulating slightly, and she did not speak for a long time.
　　 Ren can understand their feelings.
　　 It has been more than 40 years since the Zhuo Gengbao dynasty fell. The former family territory is no longer called the Zhuo Gengbao Principality, and most of the lord families that were loyal to it have also died out. After the usurpation of the throne, Mark canceled the title of the Duchy of Drogonborg and re-canonized the lord, calling this territory the king, which means the king's territory.
　　The king's collar is the smallest of the seven duchy of Congatro, but thanks to the erosion of the two rivers, the land of the king's collar is the most fertile, and the terrain is flat. It is a flat river, and even a hill with a microsecond height can not be found. Moreover, the Longya Bay, formed by the sea to the east and the mouth of Heyan into the sea, is a trading port second only to the city of Barosque. It is only frozen in winter throughout the year.
　　 The most suitable land in the whole kingdom is the king's collar.
　　 Feeds the largest population with the smallest area, totaling more than 13 million people, accounting for one third of the total population of the kingdom!
In sharp contrast to the princely, the Principality of Brandon has the largest area, more than a quarter of the kingdom, but the coldest temperature. Most of them are tundra, and the Principality has the smallest population, less than 3 million. .
　　 One of the two principalities is in the north and the other is in the middle of the kingdom.
　　 Kangatello has a saying that for thousands of years, whoever conquered the Principality of Zhuo Gengbao will choke the kingdom’s throat.
　　 Now, the restoration of the Dragonborn is only the most critical step!
　　 Take down Kingsland, the capital of Kingsland, and take control of the king. The remaining two Principalities of Etis and Brandon in the north are nothing to be afraid of!
　　The dragonborn army rested outside the dragon forest for half an hour. After regaining strength, Emilys lowered her collar loudly:
"Keep going!"
　　The road of Wangling was much wider than the Longlin Avenue in the forest. Most of the roads were repaired, and some sections were paved with flagstones, and the marching speed suddenly increased by a few minutes.
　　 Within a quarter of an hour, a city next to the dragon forest appeared in front.
　　 "Longji City."
The city is built on a section of hills extending from the forest. It stretches from southwest to northeast. It is not very steep. It is only tens of meters above sea level. From a distance, it looks like the back of a crawling dragon. Name Longji City.
　　 Dragon Spine City is the domain of the Felton family, and Viscount Felton has only obtained the fief for forty years. It was in that year that he made his fortune in the war of usurping the throne, made meritorious deeds, and obtained the canonization of Mark.
　　 There are not many residents in the city, only 20,000 to 30,000.
　　 At this moment, there is already a great chaos in Longji City. The residents screamed in panic, they turned their backs on their horses, and ran to hide into their homes. The walls were not too high, and the guards were also facing the enemy.
　　The city wall is built around the hills where Dragon's Back City is located, enclosing a circle at the foot of the mountain.
　　 Ren looked at the highest point of Dragon's Back City, where there was a castle.
The Eye of Soul narrowed his vision, and soon found a middle-aged man in aristocratic costume on the heights of the castle, because he was too far away to see his strength, but he was obviously an extraordinary man, collected by Rovangen It is mentioned in the intelligence that this Viscount is a legendary elementary.
　　 The dragon roared in the sky, and the extreme fighters also circled the fire dragon in the sky.
　　 Viscount Felton's face was full of despair.
　　The dragon descendant army stepped on the farmland not long after the autumn harvest, and the centaur rushed to the front, spreading out to both sides, encircling the entire Dragon's Back City.
　　Despite being in a low position and trying to attack the city upwards, the aura of the dragonborn army completely crushed the enemy. The guards on the wall were trembling, their faces looked like earth, and they almost could not hold their weapons securely.
　　 The entire Dragon's Back City was even more silent, and the battle was about to start.
　　 Emilys did not hesitate at all.
　　 "Offensive!"
　　 As soon as she gave her order, the gate of Longji City opened.
　　 Viscount Felton walked out of the city under the arch guarded by several high-level transcendents. Waving the white flag, he approached cautiously while shouting loudly: "Your Majesty the Queen, the Felton family is willing to be loyal to your Majesty!"
　　 Following his surrender statement, the guards on the wall also lost their weapons.
　　 The attack of the dragon descendants came to a halt.
　　 People are waiting for Emily's order. The residents of the city and the guards on the wall are all trembling, waiting for the judgment of fate.
　　 However, Emily's voice did not come.
　　 Viscount Felton had already knelt down. He didn't dare to look up. He hadn't heard the other party's response. He couldn't help panicking, his forehead was sweating.
　　 Ren looked at Amelis, but saw her face gloomy.
　　 The eyes of the soul saw the red color, which was the emotion of anger and hatred.
　　 "Your Excellency Atans, are you sure it is him?" Emily asked in a low voice. Atans nodded blankly, and Varogen beside him gritted his teeth.
　　Ryan understood the situation at a glance.
Most of the noble lords currently under the leadership of Mark are the current heroes who have rebelled with Mark. They personally participated in the war to overthrow the Zhuo Gengbao dynasty, and their hands must be stained with the blood of the Dragonborn. Even if they are not the culprit, they are Mark's accomplices .
　　 Others can forgive, but these murderers cannot.
"kill him."
　　 "There is also his family, not a single one."
　　 Emilys finally responded and issued an order, but the order was like a thunderbolt in the ears of Viscount Felton. Her heart was like an abyss, and she didn't even react for a while.
　　 "Master Viscount, run away!"
　　 The guards around him shouted in horror, but the shouts stopped abruptly.
"what……"
Amidst the gunshots, warm blood splashed on Viscount Felton's face. He was awakened at this time. He fled into Dragon's Back City without looking back in a panic, even ignoring his guards, shouting: "Close the city gate! Close the door! Don't let them rush in!"
　　 Before the guards closed the city gate, a series of huge fireballs flew.
　　 boom!
　　 The sound of violent explosions spread throughout Longji City. The high-temperature flame burned everything, the city gate collapsed, and a dozen guards hid in the sea of ​​flames, with no bones left.
　　 Viscount Felton was also blown up by the fireball, but he was a legend, and his resistance was far beyond ordinary people. He forcibly swallowed the blood in his mouth and landed steadily, and continued to flee to his castle. He wants to take his family and treasures and escape from the tunnel in the castle.
　　 Fortunately, he made two-handed preparations beforehand and he has already called his family.
　　 However, he didn't run a few steps, there was a rain of gunshots in the sky, Viscount Felton was still shot as he fleeed desperately, and there was severe pain in his back, and he fell on the street involuntarily.
　　 He looked up and saw that the enemy attacking him was a group of tall warriors riding on flying dragons.
　　 The soul guns in the hands of these terrible enemies spewed flames.
　　 Wherever the muzzle was pointed, the guards of Longji City fell like wheat, and his body was torn to pieces by bullets and died on the spot. Some of the guards who reacted quickly hid in the house, but they still couldn't escape. The bullets shot directly through the roof and walls, and the building crashed down. The guards screamed before they died.
"This……"
　　 Viscount Felton's eyes widened. He had never seen an enemy like this, shooting from the sky so far away, how should he fight?
　　At this moment, he knew that King Mark was over!
Boundless regret swallowed the heart of Baron Felton. He was lying on the street, watching a group of centaur rushing into Dragon's Back City weakly. The ground vibrated, and each hard horse hooves stepped on it. This was what he saw The last scene.
　　 captured Longji City in less than ten minutes.
The castle of Viscount Felton is not big, built in the highest part of the city. Although the family has dozens of extraordinary men who swear to the death resistance, these resistances are not much stronger than white paper before they are smashed. , Was directly overwhelmed by the centaur.
　　 The ruthless killing in the castle lasted for a few minutes, and the Felton family was removed from Congatro.
　　 When Ren followed Amelis into the castle, he saw more than a dozen noble corpses in the hall, some of them were still young, and there was a color of fear remaining on their young and tender faces.
　　 But her expression didn't change much, she looked away, walked past the corpse without saying a word, and sat on the main seat of the hall.
　　 Varogen ordered: "It's all burned."
"Yes."
　　The Blood Guards of the Scale Harness moved the corpse out, and flames quickly ignited in the open space outside the castle.
　　 Amelis looked at the blood stains on the ground until Ren reminded her to come back to her senses, sat upright, and said with a relaxed expression: "Rain, Dragon Spine City will become your territory."
　　 "I know." Renn nodded.
The territory of Dragon's Back City is close to the Dragon Forest. Outside the city, there is a secret passage that has been opened for only a hundred years, leading to the inside of the forest. There is the "Politosi Mine", one of the largest mithril mines in the world. Accompanied by a large number of source crystal ore.
　　Of course, Yuanjing is called "heavy silver" in Congatro.
　　The Felton family was enshrined in Dragon's Back City and managed the mithril mine for Mark. This mine has huge output and extremely high profits, and provides Mark a large amount of funds every year.
　　 When Amilys was in Glamorgan, she promised to transfer this mithril mine to Ren's hands.
　　 But what she said next, UU reading www.uukanshu.com surprised Renn.
"In addition to Dragonspine City, the stream city on the east side, and the five territories cede by the Lauberdill family, I will grant you." Emilys looked at Renne, her voice was not loud and her tone was very strong. It was also calm, obviously after careful consideration, but the content of the words made everyone present stunned.
　　 Renn was also a little caught off guard.
Needless to say, Dragon Spine City, the stream city to the east is also a Viscount territory. Both territories border the Dragon Forest, plus the five territories in the north of Lauberdill, which completely encompasses the Dragon Forest. , Forming a huge territory no less than Fisher Principality.
　　Even, this territory is larger than the shrinking Duchy of Lauberdill, with a larger population and richer land.
　　 This is no longer the earl collar promised at the beginning, but a duchy collar!
　　 "Your Majesty!"
　　Varogen couldn't help but uttered, Emilys hadn't discussed it with herself beforehand, which made him worry.
Regardless of the country, the lord and nobles valued the most and ranked first is always the territory. A huge territory with an area large enough to rank sixth in the kingdom, the value is immeasurable, it is too hasty to be canonized so casually. Up.
　　 If Rennes accepts, then Congatro will give birth to the eighth principality.
　　According to Congatro’s aristocratic practice, this newly established principality is called the "Principality of Augustus", and Rennes is the first "Duke of Augustus"!
