People in the Middle Ages, draw cards to get promoted

Chapter 33 Constance Manor
When Lothar came out of the palace, Baron Godfrey was no longer there.

The waiter handed him a note with the address of Lord Godfrey in the Holy City.

The waiter said that the baron invited him to come and visit him after he had finished his business.

Suddenly coming from the dark palace to the scorching sun, Lothar subconsciously covered his eyes.

With emotion in my heart, it is no wonder that in the main hall, many Crusader nobles adopted Arab attire.

He felt that he really needed an Arabic "Kofiya" loose white robe, and a white turban.

In the ear, the system's notification sounded: You have activated and completed the milestone - "I have a small manor".

Description: The manor is an important part of the lord's estate, and it is also an important channel for the lord to obtain income.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, you have won the first manor, the next second, the third will be far behind?
Activate the advanced milestone: "Real Estate Tycoon", get ten manor properties, or workshops. (1/10)

You got a chance to draw a card.

The corner of Lothar's mouth curled up slightly. Sure enough, after arriving at the holy land, even if he didn't get the territory, the chances of drawing cards would increase.

The number of milestones he designed at the beginning was too many, so many that he couldn't even remember them clearly.

Fringila, who had been waiting outside for a long time, came forward first: "What's the matter, are you smiling so happily?"

"Nothing, just got a manor property in Jerusalem, we can stay there instead of staying in a hotel."

Furingilla's face showed joy, and then she straightened her face again, and said coldly: "Can a small manor make you happy?"

"Back then, I lived in the palace of the Blood King's Court. It took tens of thousands of werewolves to work for the Blood King, and it took three full years to build it."

"Compared with it, the royal palace in Jerusalem is but the farm of a small country lord."

Fringila tried her best to show herself more reserved and noble, but Lothar didn't agree with her at all, and pushed her aside with a perfunctory face.

"Yes, yes, my princess."

Banruo looked at this scene indifferently, still showing no emotion on his face.

But Lothar still smiled at her gently.

For Prajna, he has always had a special feeling, that is, the people who started from scratch together, accompany him day and night, listen to his voice, like friends, but also like relatives.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there is such a trace of love between men and women.

If you get along with a woman with a face like Banruo day and night, if you don't have any affection between men and women, you can only be an eunuch in the court of the Eastern Empire.

Lothar came to the crowd and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, I was summoned by His Majesty the King today and swore allegiance to him. His Majesty gave me a manor as our residence in Jerusalem."

"That's great, His Majesty actually appreciates Your Excellency so much!"

"I heard that many knights from Gaul who wanted to see His Majesty were turned away!"

"My lord, you seem to be on your way to success."

Hans, Ryan, and Model were all overjoyed.

The citizens also feel honored.

Since they followed Lothar and traveled across the ocean to the Holy Land, their fate has been closely linked with Lothar.

Lothar let them live, they can live, Lothar let them die, they have to die.

From a legal point of view, although they are free citizens, they are actually no different from serfs, because the law maker is Lothar, and he can change his words at any time.

Those who can barely be considered "free" are the handicraftsmen and merchants in the free city.

"Master Lothar, you got the manor, shouldn't we have a field?"

Someone said anxiously.

It would be great if you can avoid fighting and killing.

Even in a place like the Austrian border jurisdiction, not all the brave and aggressive people are produced.

"I'm afraid not."

Lothar shook his head: "The manor that His Majesty bestowed on me is not a knight's fiefdom, but a villa-style estate that can live in people, but has no land and no serfs."

This is obviously not enough for the "territory" standard, and there is no way to help him activate the system.

"So it is."

The man looked disappointed.

Among the male leaders, he has the weakest personality. When he used a knife to kill robbers, his hands were trembling.

"Your name is Dieter, right? I remember your name."

Dieter whispered, "It's Tver, my lord."

Lothar's tone was weak, and he continued: "I know you don't like war, but you have to know, if I acquire the fief in the future and give you the land, can you keep your land?"

"Or, do you think that when the heretics kill me and kill your lord, you can be alone?"

"I"

Tver was stunned for a while.

Lothar looked at the others again: "Whether you dare to tremble in the face of the robber's butcher's knife like before, or use the spears and shields I gave you to stand up and resist, it's all up to you."

"My promise will never change. Once you get the fief, you will all get your own land, but how much you grant will be based on military merit."

"Tver you coward!"

Someone yelled.

The former knight's personal servant, named Andreas, gave him a hard kick: "Tver, serving the master is an oath we made together. If you dare to break it, we will I will not spare you, and after you die, you will definitely go to Hell to be punished!"

Tweer said with an aggrieved face: "I didn't, I didn't want to break the oath, I just asked the master, I prefer farming."

Lothar patted him on the shoulder and pulled him up from the ground: "It's true that I like farming. After I get the fief, you will give me a good study on how to increase food production."

He said kindly: "Now, let's go back to the manor granted to me by His Majesty to rest. I have been on the road these days, and I have worked hard for you all. The name of the manor is Constance, which was named by my father, maybe because my uncle used to be Constance Because of Archbishop Ci."

On the way back, Lothar told Ryan and Model:
"Now that we have a stronghold, we can already organize and train the new army. Ryan and Model, I will hand it over to you two at this time. Remember, we must use our 7. No, 6 male leaders as the backbone. "

He lowered his voice: "You can investigate Tver again. If he really can't do well, just give him up and let him be a farmer."

"The criteria for selecting sergeants do not look at anything else, only talent."

He didn't care about the physical fitness of the pilgrims, because there was no need for it.

In addition to being malnourished, all those who can trek to the Holy Land are physically strong.

Even if you are still relatively thin now, you can fill your stomach and recover after a while.

He doesn't care about loyalty either. It's impossible to be absolutely loyal without daring to come up with some ideas beyond the times to conquer the hearts of the soldiers.

And the beliefs, laws, and moral norms of this era are enough to ensure that the troops built by him have loyalty above the standard line.

Lothar emphasized: "An illiterate person can be a small officer at most, and the Germans should be the main ones, otherwise the language will be difficult, let alone combat effectiveness."

Jerusalem lacks everything except unemployed pilgrims.

There is a wide range of options for him to filter through.

"We must be the first. Tomorrow, we will put up a sign to recruit pilgrims and soldiers, because the kingdom is also planning to arm the pilgrims to defend the Holy Land."

"We must pick out the best batch among them, and remember to follow what I said, draw more big cakes."

Lothar paused slightly, and said helplessly: "Our family is still poor, and we can't give too good conditions, so we can only make cakes."

Ryan and Model nodded again and again, they both knew the meaning of the word "painted cake".

But they interpreted this as a promise.

"As for the number of people, each person must wear armor, whether it is leather armor, armor, or scale armor. In addition, each of them must be equipped with a leather shield and a spearhead equipped with fine iron. Lance."

"When purchasing these military supplies, you can find Andreas, who used to be a knight's valet. He has attended a church school for two years, and he is also good at dealing with treacherous businessmen."

Count Werner armed a total of [-] sergeants, he is a dignified count.

Lothar doesn't plan to be too ambitious, fifty is enough.

This is an armed force that most knights cannot possess.

"Hans and I will be invited to Baron Godfrey's territory during this time. These matters will be entrusted to the two of you. We must make this matter beautiful."

Lothar paused slightly, and still drew a cake: "If this matter is done properly, you can each lead a team of sergeants and serve as officers."

The two immediately showed excitement on their faces.

"We will not disappoint the trust of adults."

Lothar nodded slightly, frowning and thinking about whether he had neglected things to explain to these two people.

This time he went deep into the enemy's territory, he only planned to bring the four followers produced by the system.

The reason why it is said to be four is because he has not had time to use the newly obtained card drawing opportunity.

"Oh, by the way, I will teach you some simple military training methods when I go back, focusing on making soldiers obey orders, and you can decide whether to adopt them based on your own experience."

He decided to teach the two the methods of military training, and queue training is effective for strengthening the discipline of the army at any time.
