Lord Harland.
Chapter 177 Promotion to Viscount
Although King Charles has been in power for thirty years, he actually has no experience of joining the army and fighting on the front line.
Although he is a sixth-level knight, he relied entirely on precious potions to get there.
He didn't understand the changes in the war situation at all, so he could only listen to the opinions of the following.
The palace bureaucracy is filled with various interest groups supporting different princes, and there are countless struggles every day.
When there is a dispute that requires him to make a decision, he often makes the decision based on his likes and dislikes.
He likes Felix and hates the eldest prince Chris, so he supports the Holland family and suppresses Baron Richard.
As for whether suppressing Richard would be detrimental to the overall situation or cause trouble, King Charlie often did not understand.
The reason why he hates the eldest prince Chris actually has a special reason. He found out that the queen was having an affair with Duke Roger.
The queen is the legitimate daughter of Duke Durand, and Duke Roger also has great influence in the royal family.
Even with solid evidence, it is difficult to gain broad support for disposing of them.
Not to mention that the rumors heard by King Charles may also be court struggles, which are based on rumors.
Because of this barrier, King Charles will continue to support his favorite Prince Felix, hoping to support Felix as his heir.
King Charles felt very humiliated by being beaten up by the Duke of Brenner, but the reality had to make him endure the humiliation.
Starting from King Louis, four generations of kings lived in the shadow of Brenner.
Only his father, Philip, who was a ninth-level epic knight and had high prestige in the army, received limited respect from Brener.
Although he is a high-ranking king, but facing Brener, Charlie has no ability to resist.Because in the basic set of the royal family, Brener's influence far exceeds that of the king.
Contrary to Brenner's opinion, neither the royal guards nor the mages would support the king's decision.
Maybe they will tear their faces, or even die unexpectedly, and the throne will be replaced.
"If I die, I don't know what fate will happen to poor little Felix? Anyway, the old man Brener is dying, and he can turn around when he dies. I will write down today's insult, and there will always be When it's time to settle."
King Charles hated Brenner to death in his heart, but he did not dare to show it on his face. In fact, he couldn't listen to what Brenner said.
But Marshal Brenner's decision, King Charles did not dare to object.
Soon a commendation order came from the capital, and Li Cha was granted two territories.
The two territories add up to more than 4,500 square kilometers. They merged the original barony of Richard and were promoted to the viscounty of Richard, with a combined area of 6,000 square kilometers.
Counting the territory of William and Sophia, the Harland family's fief has already reached square kilometers, surpassing Viscount Roman, and becoming the hereditary nobleman with the most land in Gerda Province.
Although the fief is large, there are not many people in the territory.
Including the 6,000 slaves rescued during this war, the population controlled by the Harland family exceeded 50,000.
Although 50,000 people cannot be said to be small, placed on a land of 9,000 square kilometers, there are only five people per square kilometer, which is only better than XZ in Richard's previous life.
Although the territory controlled by the Harland family is mountainous, it is actually very suitable for human survival.
If such a large piece of land were developed, it would be enough to feed 300,000 people.
The bureaucrats who came down from the royal capital were very discerning. When they found out that the Kingdom of Charles did not like the Harland family, they would naturally not get close to Richard.
Not even asking for the gifts from Richard, as if avoiding the god of plague, he hastily divided the territory, processed the paperwork, and returned to the royal capital without a moment's delay.
The reason why the royal capital gave Li Cha such a vast territory was actually giving favors to the ownerless land.
This area is uninhabited land.
If Li Cha gains a foothold here, this territory will become a prominent part of the orc's focus.
With this protrusion, the defense situation of the entire Gedda Province will be greatly improved. The Harland Valley is completely in Richard's hands, and the orcs cannot invade through this valley.
The Grant Kingdom only paid a little in name, so that the ambitious nobles had to fight hard.
It is very dangerous to become a salient in the border provinces, especially the frequent and intense wars in the northern border. The Earl of Martins is a salient, but it was quickly conquered by the orcs.
Martins is not stable. The Harland family is stronger than the Martins family now, and it is also difficult to gain a firm foothold.
He has been promoted to a title and obtained a new territory, and the time has already entered August.
The orcs' war in Geda province suffered a failure, and the northern army entered Lahe province. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Kiram, the commander of the orc front army, decisively chose to retreat.
In late August, the war was over, and Li Cha also returned to Gerda Province with the main force.
After being promoted to a title, you need to go to the royal capital to participate in the conferring ceremony.
Richard rushed to the royal capital quickly. It was already the third day of September.
Holding the noble coat of arms, Richard entered the hall of the noble council.
The Noble Council Hall has six floors and is 30 meters high. Many magicians worked hard to build this building. There are no seams between the stones. It seems that they all turned mud into stone.
The decoration inside is also very luxurious, using a lot of precious materials.
Richard came to the Noble Council and directly found Prince Chris.
After falling out with the Holland family, Richard temporarily put aside his rift with Duke Roger and became a staunch supporter of Prince Chris.
After Richard's trouble, it has become impossible for Richard to cooperate with the Holland family.
Belet Holland couldn't stay in Gerda province anymore, and was dismissed from his post by King Charles, temporarily in a state of dormancy.However, his cousin Geram was once again reused by King Charles and became the consul of the province of Selldorf.
Selldorf Province is located in the southwest of Nolan, and its status is equivalent to the HEB Province of Richard's previous life.
With this transfer, Jerram's status became even more important.
After Richard came to Nolan, he waited for more than ten days. Together with the three barons, he participated in the knighting ceremony and swore allegiance to the Kingdom of Grant.
After taking the oath, Li Cha suddenly felt a thin chain appear in the spiritual power space, as if locking his soul.
The chain had just entered, and was immediately absorbed by the silver necklace.
After absorbing this bit of power, the silver necklace seemed a little brighter.
There was an abnormality in the silver necklace, which shocked Richard, and he acted a little confused.
Li Cha didn't attend the next banquet and hurried back to the hotel.
Li Cha wanted to find out the secret of this silver necklace, but unfortunately he was helpless. Li Cha hated the feeling that his life was being controlled.He was secretly wary of the silver necklace, not daring to slack off for a moment, and worked very hard every day.I hope that I can advance to legend as soon as possible. Only when the essence of life changes can I figure out the secret of this silver necklace.
After the ceremony was completed, Li Cha immediately returned to the territory and devoted himself to the study of magic.
