Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Chapter 539: The day the old king was buried, the day the new king ascended the throne

On this day, Ethan appeared in the Holy Rose Square in Dawn City wearing a pair of slippers, a pair of shorts, and a large vest, with a wind sword hanging on his waist and his eldest son Bruce sitting on his neck.

At this time, the crowd was surging here, and cheers were heard one after another, just to celebrate the new duke's accession to the throne.

Yes, Duke Baldwin of the White Rose is dead. His leprosy suddenly worsened a while ago, and he only lasted for two days before passing away at the age of 25.

Because of Duke Baldwin's military talent, he was respected by many regions, and almost all the duke-level figures in District 17 came to attend his funeral.

Of course, many nobles who admired him also came, and Ethan was one of them.

Due to the long-term wars in the White Rose region, in order to prevent a power vacuum and a situation of no leader, the power transfer is very similar to other places.

They do not need a waiting period or an observation period. The day the old king is buried is the day when the new king ascends the throne.

After attending the funeral of Duke Baldwin, Ethan came to see the new king ascend the throne.

According to the rules of the nobility, only the dukes or the royal family can have seats. No matter whether you are aristocrats or not, other people can only wait in the square like commoners.

Of course, if Ethan wants a seat, he believes that the White Rose will give face, but he does not want to break the rules.

You can play with the rules, but it is best not to break them.

Some people like to play unique things, or make exceptions to promote things like this. Most of these people are commoners, and they always think that they are unique and all kinds of good things should be made exceptions for them.

In fact, if the rules are broken, the commoners will be the most unlucky.

Take the matter of education and promotion as an example. Originally, everyone was promoted based on grades, but many commoners felt that they could not only look at grades, and some talents should be admitted by exception.

Little did they know that once this loophole was opened, these commoners might not even have the opportunity to be promoted based on grades, because there would be a bunch of "talents" taking their chances.

There is a saying that goes: Can the son of a general be a marshal? The answer is definitely not, because the marshal also has a son.

Ethan now hates people who break the rules more and more. Today he brought his eldest son Bruce, but not his favorite Nicole, just in accordance with the rules of the nobility.

This is the unspoken rule of the nobility. You bring the right person for the occasion. For example, for such an occasion of enthronement, you usually bring the heir of the family.

As for whether to establish the eldest son or the most virtuous, everyone's situation is different, and their ideas are different, so naturally they bring different people.

Ethan has always been the eldest son faction, so he brought his eldest son Bruce.

But Bruce is just over three years old, and he doesn't understand these things. In addition to screaming with others, he just pulls his old father's hair fiercely, and Ethan's head is almost bald.

At this time, a fierce cheer broke out in the crowd. Ethan is only 196, and his height barely exceeds the passing line in this world. At this time, he is blocked by two 210 big men in front of him, and he can't see what happened.

There is no way, he can only push the two big men away.

The two big men saw that someone dared to touch them, and turned back angrily. As a result, they saw that it was a dwarf who dared to touch their tiger whiskers, so they wanted to teach him a lesson.

However, before they started, they took a look at the boy riding on the dwarf's neck and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

He actually had long hair and tied a bun at the back of his head.

After realizing that the child was a noble, the two big men immediately lost their anger and smiled to make way.

Ethan didn't expect that the great swordsman would rely on his three-year-old son to eliminate disasters, but it didn't matter, as long as the ending was good.

The two big men made way, and Ethan finally saw the situation. It turned out that the bishop of the Temple crowned the new duke.

This means that the coronation is about to end.

According to the rules, the next step is for the new duke to give a speech and finally give everyone a bounty.

Sure enough, after the crown was awarded, a fat man slowly walked to the front and was about to give a speech.

Oh, by the way, this fat man is not the new duke, he is the father of the new duke.

Since Duke Baldwin has no heirs, according to the order of succession, the duke's position will be succeeded by his sister's son.

In other words, this fat man is Duke Baldwin's brother-in-law.

This man is called Donald. He was born into a poor noble family. The White Rose family can recruit a son-in-law.

Although he is as fat as a pig now, he used to be very handsome and was known as "the most affectionate rose."

Duke Baldwin's sister loves him to death and forces her brother to agree to this marriage.

Duke Baldwin has only one sister and has always loved her. When he learned that she was targeted by the little yellow-haired man, he was very angry.

In addition, he knew that the little yellow-haired man was a waste. Not only was he uneducated, but he also flirted with other women every day. He would definitely not agree.

But as the saying goes, a girl can't be kept at home. His sister threatened to die, so he had no choice but to reluctantly recruit the little yellow-haired man as a son-in-law.

Although the little yellow-haired man was incompetent at first, he was also well-behaved. Not only did he not cause trouble, but he also added a child to the family.

Duke Baldwin saw that he had calmed down and thought that he was a family member, so he arranged the very important position of garrison governor for him.

Originally, I didn't ask him to make achievements, I just hoped that he could accumulate experience and take on the responsibility of protecting the family in the future.

But after becoming the garrison governor, this kid began to show his true colors. Not only did he take advantage of others, but he also kept three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten other people outside...

That's fine, but the key is that he has no ability and is arrogant. He is in the important position of garrison officer, knows nothing about defense, but still refuses to listen to advice.

He does whatever he wants in defense, which results in the continuous erosion of the White Rose territory and the loss of many brave soldiers.

Finally, Duke Baldwin couldn't stand him anymore, and a few years ago, he took advantage of the issue and whipped him in front of everyone, and then he was fired.

At that time, the young officer named Paul took over his position as the garrison governor.

This Paul is amazing. He is very talented in military affairs, and can even be said to be a genius.

Since he took over the position of garrison officer, in just two months, he reversed the situation of the White Rose being passively beaten, turned defense into offense, and beat the Red Rose to lose its armor.

Not only did he recover a large amount of lost territory, but he also suppressed the Red Rose to the point of suffocation. If he was given more time, he could have destroyed the Red Rose.

If it weren't for the intervention of Maro City at that time, the Red Rose would probably have been finished.

If the Rose Civil War was just a small-scale war, it would not show how powerful this guy is.

Then this time, the South Alliance's extermination war against the Goblins fully demonstrated his strength.

In this extermination operation, the White Rose also sent 2,000 people to participate, and he was in charge.

In this operation, each family suffered losses, but the people sent by the two Roses were not injured.

It can only be said that soldiers who often fight and those who don't fight are completely two concepts.

This is enough to reflect the strength of the two families, but there is something even more amazing.

In this operation, a total of nearly 40,000 people were dispatched, and although these 40,000 people looked tall and strong and well-equipped, they were basically just making up the numbers. The main force was actually the 4,000 people of the Red and White Roses.

Soldiers in other regions, because of the lack of command, fought on their own, the combat situation was chaotic, and the combat effectiveness was even worse.

Ethan didn't know anything else, but he knew very well about the people he sent.

The soldiers sent by Maro City this time were highly expected by Ethan. They were the elite among the elite, and each one was carefully selected and well-equipped.

And since Ethan didn't know much about military affairs, the only thing he could do was to do a good job in logistics, so the people sent were all equipped with the best equipment.

Full body armor, all kinds of weapons, and even magic blessing weapons.

In addition, special logistics chefs were arranged to supply food 24 hours a day. Worried that the soldiers would not eat well, ships were sent to transport fresh vegetables, meat and fruits.

There was also a team of top professors from the medical school, plus hundreds of student assistants, who served as field doctors to escort them.

The rear also prepared full insurance for them, so that they had no worries.

It can be said that they provided all-round protection both physically and psychologically.

In Ethan's opinion, such treatment would make the American soldiers feel ashamed, and their combat power must be very strong.

But what was the result...
