The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 956 Splitting the family

In addition to the Marquis of Raging Waves, another Marquis was captured—the Marquis of Chongshan, the Order of Elton Jinju.

The Order of the Golden Chrysanthemum family belongs to the old Marquis family, and its territory is adjacent to the Marquis of Raging Waves. However, compared to the Marquis of Raging Waves who has the strength of a domain knight, the 40-year-old Marquis of Chongshan only has the strength of a sword master.

The surname Golden Chrysanthemum Medal is derived from a potion flower, the Medal Chrysanthemum. The family's emblem pattern is a circular medal in the shape of a chrysanthemum.

The Marquis of Elton was not only captured himself, but the knight class in the territory was almost wiped out.

At that time, he summoned all his followers to his Golden Chrysanthemum Castle, preparing to hold on to the castle until the end of the development order. Therefore, after the sapphire broke through the castle, none of the noble knights ran away. His fief alone contributed four earls, twelve viscounts, and a large number of knights.

Your Highness, Elton doesn't have much choice. Most of his family's wealth has been plundered by the Knights, and it is impossible to pay the ransom for him and his followers.

Talking Marquis Di Maria Yuhuashi.

In the study of the Oxhoof Castle, the first person summoned by Liszt was the Marquis of Raging Waves. As an old acquaintance and he had clearly identified himself as a follower, the Marquis of Raging Waves enjoyed the treatment of acting freely.

The two were sipping tea across the desk, and the atmosphere was very friendly.

The Marquis of Raging Waves lived in Heima Island for a long time, and he loved the drink of green tea. Since then, he and Huoyanling have been secretly smuggling sea salt, glass, white paper and other commodities. Kingdom is real and normal.

Marquis Di Maria, if the surrender is successful, what kind of treatment do you think the Golden Chrysanthemum family deserves? Liszt asked casually.

Di Maria smiled and said, Your Highness, there is actually a very good way to quickly subdue the Order of the Golden Chrysanthemum family.

Oh, let's hear it.

Elton has a younger brother named Elroy. He is only a viscount and only thirty years old, but he is already a veteran sword master. He is not far from consummation. It was only because of Elton's suppression that he was late. It is too late to be promoted to earl, and Elton is acting absurdly, and Elroy is calmly acting.

Speaking of this, Di Maria's meaning is self-evident.

The brothers Elton and Elroy are both Juggernauts, but it is obvious that Elroy has more outstanding talent and calmer personality, and is more suitable to be the patriarch of the family and inherit the position of Marquis.

Liszt can take Elroy to the position of marquis for the reason of incorporation, and Elroy will definitely be grateful to Liszt and take good control of the Order of the Golden Chrysanthemum family.

But Liszt did not intend to do so.

He smiled faintly: The Yuhuashi family can be preserved, but the Golden Chrysanthemum Medal family cannot be preserved. As long as Elton is willing to surrender, I can retain his Marquis position after the founding of the country. But his followers will form new families on their own. Same goes for Elroy.

Your Highness, what do you mean? Di Maria didn't understand Liszt's intention for a while.

The Flame Kingdom is a new country, and the old forces need to be broken. This is not to prevent the family from growing, but to create more families to help me rule the vast land of the Flame Islands.

I see, Your Highness.

Di Maria made it clear: Indeed,

The new kingdom needs too many nobles and knights... In fact, when you come to this land, even if Your Highness does not split up the family, those powerful noble knights will leave voluntarily. Your Highness, the Yuhuashi family is also willing to split up.

Um?

My follower knights, I will dismiss them one by one, including my nephew Deborah Yuhuashi. Now that I have come to the new kingdom, I hope that the Yuhuashi family can also be reborn in this land and fully integrated into the flame kingdom .”

Liszt smiled and nodded: You are a reasonable nobleman, don't worry, follow me, the Yuhuashi family will only continue to grow, not decline. The population of the territory is not large, but there will be continuous wars in the future, and enough plunder The population supplements the losses of the major families.

...

Di Maria did not leave when the second Marquis, the Order of Elton Golden Chrysanthemum, was summoned. He had been approved by Liszt and became an assistant to the knights.

Elton, you and I have known each other for a long time. I have clearly told you what His Highness means. Even if you don't split you up, you won't have any ransom to redeem your followers. And you can see the growth of the Flame Kingdom and the decline of the Eagle Kingdom. Come out, I hope you can think clearly about how to choose.

After listening to Di Maria.

Elton glanced at Liszt, who had no expression on his face and just let Di Maria recruit him, but did not receive any friendly information.

As Liszt, there is no need to show a smile to any nobleman.

They are all prisoners of war, let him dispose of them—either pay the ransom and leave, or surrender to offer loyalty, there is no other choice, if it is not for the sake of the great nobles, you may not even see Liszt's face.

However, if the followers of the family are split, how will the Order of the Golden Chrysanthemum family develop?

Serve the kingdom within three years and cultivate the land for His Royal Highness. After three years, the territory will be entrusted. The Order of the Golden Chrysanthemum family can naturally rely on the entrusted territory to rise again.

Without knights, how can you rise?

Di Maria said: Three years later, there will definitely be a large number of knights who cannot be knighted. You can naturally recruit these knights to serve your family.

Then what about my elf?

The elves are still yours, but they need to serve for three years...or you can pay the price of a few big elves to return to your territory in the Eagle Kingdom and continue to be free; of course, if your territory has a lot of wealth, you can also help those who are willing to go back Followers pay the ransom. Your Highness has always been tolerant towards nobles and respects your wishes.

Elton may be mediocre in talent and act absurdly, but after all, he was born in a noble family, and the calculation of interests is instinctive.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded calmly and said, In this case, I am willing to follow His Highness. The Golden Chrysanthemum Order family originally thought that His Highness served.

...

After the two marquises, Liszt summoned two more nobles alone.

One is the full-level sky knight with the title of earl, Jeffrey Furongkui, who promised at least one title of marquis after the founding of the country, and Jeffrey followed him happily; The Juggernaut has a good talent and is about to achieve perfection, so Liszt doesn't need to say much, he directly expresses his willingness to follow.

Afterwards, at the dinner party.

Liszt invited all the seven earls who had not yet chosen to pay the ransom to attend, and personally recruited and recruited them. After hesitating, six earls finally announced to follow, and only one earl with an ordinary sky knight thought for a long time before deciding to pay the ransom.

so far.

Regardless of titles.

This time the development order, Liszt directly subdued one domain knight, one perfect-level sky knight, five sword master-level sky knights, and twenty-five normal-level sky knights. And more than 800 elite earth knights, more than 3,800 ordinary earth knights, and more than 7,600 trainee knights.

None of the elf Liszt of these knights was confiscated, but only required to serve for three years.

The number of elves he could really get was provided by the four earls who paid the ransom. There were seven elves in total. According to the requirements, at least three were potion and grain elves.

However, compared to the high-level human and material resources such as knights and elves, his biggest harvest is the low-level serfs. More than half a million serfs, civilians, and craftsmen were frantically transported to Flame Island.

What the new Flame Kingdom needs most is population replenishment.

Cultivate the land, and sooner or later all will be gained.

As night fell, Liszt looked up the harvest of the spoils in the study, and said to himself regretfully: The only thing that is a little discordant is that these knights and serfs are all from the Kingdom of Eagles. How many times can we rob them? Just dilute the Iron Ridge Kingdom...
