182 The Earl
After reading the contents of the parchment, Yifei felt a little surprised that the letter of appointment given to him by the Elder Hall turned out to be an appointment for him to be promoted!
Could it be that the families in the Hall of Elders are ready to reconcile with him?

But he thought about Brian's reaction before he left, and felt that there must be some abnormal factors in it!
But he didn't know much about the system of the Thorn Empire, so he thought he would ask Liya when he returned to the bedroom at night.

So he put away the letter of appointment given by the Elder Hall, picked up the commendation order given by Federer, and quickly stamped it with the ring in his hand!
Only with his seal on it will the system recognize that his title has been promoted!

As soon as the seal was stamped on the parchment, a system dialog box popped up in front of his eyes, and a series of messages flashed before his eyes.

[Registrar: Congratulations, host, congratulations on your promotion to the third-class earl! 】

[Registrar: Congratulations to the host for being promoted to Earl, and the new building Taming Garden is opened. 】

Beast Taming Garden: You can train corresponding wild creatures into contracted animals suitable for soldiers under your command to ride. Ten of them can be trained at a time, and cannot be expanded!

After reading the introduction of the new buildings, Yifei suddenly discovered that the system did not give up those system soldiers that could no longer be upgraded.

It's just another way to improve the strength of those soldiers who can no longer be upgraded, and that is riding!

Of course, this new building is only useful for cavalry, and has no effect at all for infantry.

Suddenly he thought of why his occupation was restricted to being a knight. It was because the system had a strong preference for knights!
He has nothing to do with this setting of the system, but being promoted and activating new buildings, whether he is good or bad, is a good thing after all!
Thinking of this, he was relieved, so he opened the reputation bar, wanting to see how those restricted things would change after the title was promoted to earl.

With the expansion of the reputation bar, various data appeared in front of his eyes.

The host, the reputation value is 7808992, the title of third-class earl, the glory value is 580238, the professional gold paladin (eight stars), and the official position is the governor of the Khakid Mountains.

领地：人口9733050，金币5116270989，可建筑数量1600/3200，可招募士兵7990/16000。

Looking at the data in front of him, Yifei found that after upgrading to Earl, the number of buildings that can be built and the number of soldiers that can be recruited have only doubled.

He was immediately disappointed. If this trend followed, even if he was upgraded to Grand Duke, the number of soldiers he could recruit would only be 12.

In such a vast world, the 12 system soldiers can only protect themselves, there is no way to support him to fight everywhere!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think in his heart, no wonder it is called the Lord Training System, not the Emperor Training System, it is clearly for training a Lord!

It seems that the goal I set before is still correct - to become the king of commerce on this continent and use economic power to influence the entire continent.

As for the Eastern Continent, if you have a chance, take a trip there.

After doing some calculations in his mind, Yifei compared what the "elder" of the previous family had described to him about the situation in the Eastern Continent. He found that even if he upgraded his title to Grand Duke, he was still just a second-class family over there. Immediately felt very disappointed!

Suddenly, he himself felt something was wrong, his thoughts seemed to have gone astray, and he couldn't help but force himself to calm down!

12 soldiers can be recruited. If all of these 12 soldiers have advanced to become heroes, wouldn't it mean that he doesn't have a single soldier under his command and all of them are heroes? This seems to be a bit of a contradiction in words!

Thinking of this, he asked out the doubts in his heart.

[Tips: A hero can form a regular army, and the number of soldiers in the regular army is not within the range of the number of soldiers that can be recruited! 】

Looking at the explanation given by the system, Yifei suddenly realized that 12 is very powerful!
Let me go, there is such a hidden setting, heroes, regular legion!

Thinking of this, he hastily asked in his heart: How many people are there in a regular army!
[Tips: Host, a regular legion has 5000 people. 】

5000 people, isn't it a bit too small!

Seeing the answer given by the system, Yifei couldn't help but think in his heart.

But for his idea, the system did not give any answer!Immediately, Yifei knew that his authority was insufficient!
Go, if there is a lack, then there is a lack, a legion of 5000 people, and a legion of 12, that is. Thinking of this, the pride in his heart returned!
Hahaha, what about the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent, when he has 12 legions and more than 1 million troops, he will be able to scare them to death.

While Yifei was thinking, the number of gold coins in the upper right corner of the game interface in front of him fluctuated greatly.

After a few minutes, when he was still fantasizing about drowning the enemy with a single spit, a dialog box popped up in front of him again!

[Registrar: Congratulations, host!Congratulations to your territory for the first million-person city! 】

Looking at the dialog box that popped up in front of him, Yifei was a little dazed, a city of millions of people?
Looking at the game interface, city walls rose again, and the entire Wild Wolf City was expanded by more than three times in an instant. Those system farms outside the city were also surrounded by the city walls and became part of the city. .

Only those farms that were built later because of the construction of canals, because the area has not yet turned into green land on the map, the wheat fields that can only be artificially planted for the time being are left outside the city walls.

It can be said that from now on, even if a very powerful enemy attacks him and wipes out all his outer defenses, he will not be trapped in the city.

As various farms are expanded in the future.Wild Wolf City has a complete self-sufficient system, whether it is agriculture or industry!
Could it be that this is a gift given after the promotion of the title, this is too good!
But as soon as this idea flashed through his mind, he immediately rejected him.

Impossible, the system will never be so kind!Could it be... At this time, he thought of a possibility, and hurriedly clicked on the reputation bar on the game interface again.

TND, he guessed it right, it's his wife's masterpiece again!
Looking at the changes in the reputation column, he didn't say much!
Anyway, after the previous proof, Liya will not mess around!
The number of buildings that can be built is 3100/3200
Just like last time, there are [-] buildable buildings left for him to build various military buildings!At the same time, those new buildings are also related to the production of various residents-related materials!
At the same time, he also found that on the map, on the side of the Deria Plateau, the five new satellite cities he planned to build have all been built at the designated locations, with all kinds of civil facilities inside, the only thing missing is Various defenses on the city wall!

Hey, he should build the rest!

Thinking of this, he moved the map to the five satellite cities and started the construction of various city defense buildings!
For him who is not short of money now, the tower of course is a huge tower, on which trebuchets, tower crossbows, and fire-throwing platforms are also densely built along the city wall, forming a three-dimensional defense system!

And there are many fences and braziers on the city wall!
Only outside the city, he did not place asphalt ditches and traps!

After all, those two things were indistinguishable from friends and foes, and he didn't want to wake up overnight to receive news that a large number of barbarian residents had died!

After repairing the defense system of the five satellite cities, Yifei set his sights on Wild Wolf City again.

As soon as the huge city that could accommodate millions of people was built, he found that the newly increased number of soldiers had to be used again, because the bigger the city, the more defense force it needed!
Recruit [-] Rangers, [-] Halberdiers, and [-] Paladins!

Following his will, a group of soldiers ran out of the barracks, and then ran towards the city wall.

After five hours passed, Yifei also built all kinds of defensive facilities in Wild Wolf City. At this time, the newly recruited soldiers from the barracks also arrived at the outermost wall of the city.

Seeing this scene, Yifei felt that the military camp was too far away from the city wall, but he didn't want to move the military camp closer to the city wall!
Because once the general camp goes to the outer city wall, it means that the position between the fortress and the military camp has become farther away. If there is any accident, he will regret it in no time!
Thinking of this, he built several garrison barracks on several open spaces not far from the outer city wall to provide for the soldiers defending the city to station!

At this time, the newly recruited 8000 soldiers had already boarded the city wall one after another.

At this time, he discovered a big problem, the number of soldiers was too small!

Let me go, there are less than 8000 soldiers, scattered on the walls of the entire giant city with a population of one million, it seems so small.

ND, it seems that only by completing the novice missions, opening the soldier's road to heroes, and obtaining heroes, can we solve the problem in front of us!
Regarding the expansion of the city, Yifei found several problems, but these problems were based on the condition that the number of soldiers in his hands was sufficient, so he decided to wait until the novice task was completed, and then deal with it together!
In the next few days, after Yifei had arranged all the things that needed to be arranged, he led the army on the road to Maple Leaf Fortress!
