Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 273 I'm Here

On the way to the Silver Wing Collar, a team is slowly moving forward.

The team consists of guards, knights, and multiple carriages.Two guards at the front and back each held a pennant with the coat of arms of the Pompeii family embroidered on the pennant.

In one of the carriages, Luther sat at the back of the carriage, and Rebecca, Knight Gentron and another official sat opposite Luther.

This official is about 40 years old, just in the golden years of his life. He has a handsome face and a big beard that is very popular among officials. He is well-dressed and energetic.

His name is Oreo, Williams.

In the official system of Pompeii, he is Lelouchi's deputy, helping Lelouchi govern Pompeii.

And this time Luther took him to the Silver Wing Territory, and he would become the actual ruler of the Silver Wing Territory.

And Rebecca, Gentron will become the knight commander in the territory.

Just like the system established by Luther in Pompeii, he only manipulated everything as the master, but he did not do mundane affairs.

Just now Luther listened to the information obtained by Oreo and learned about the main members of the Silver Wing Collar rebellion.

"Don't worry too much about these rebels. I've thought about how to rule the Silver Wings for a few days, and I've come up with some mature ideas, so I'll explain it to you."

Luther didn't express any opinion after listening, but changed the subject.

Appears to be a little careless towards the enemy.

But Knight Rebecca, Mr. Oreo has no objection to this, because as long as they see the Eagle King on Luther's right shoulder, they will feel full of confidence.

Although the king of eagles turned into a little eagle, he squatted down with both feet and was dozing with his head in his wings, looking cute.

Mr. Oreo and Cavalier Rebecca took a look and quickly retracted their eyes, looking at Luther.

"First of all, I am the governor. Mr. Oreo, you are the mayor of Silver Wing City, and you are in charge of governing. Knight Rebecca, you are the commander of the knights, in charge of commanding the knights and guards."

Luther said, paused and then said: "After we arrive at Silver Wing City, we will first expel the bastards of the Smith family from the country, then deprive Bi Xing, Alton and other lords of the nobles, and send the other five in Silver Wing Towns and villages are all under the rule of the city hall. Towns will have mayors, and villages will have village chiefs."

Theoretically speaking, the great nobles of the field are the vassals of the king, and the knight lords are the vassals of the great nobles, and both have the legitimacy of the king's appointment.

But now that the Silver Wing Viscount no longer exists, and the Silver Wing Collar has entered the era of the Governor, it seems unnecessary for the Knight Lord to exist.

At least Luther wanted to bring all the Silver Wings into his rule, and he didn't want any lords and knights to exist, and there was a country called China.

Even if Luther becomes a great nobleman in the future, he will not set up a knight lord.

Having a territory is equivalent to having the power to resist. When the territory expands and the strength of the vassals grows, ambition will breed.

Therefore, the reason is common, abolishing local warlords and strengthening centralization.

The current administrative method of the territory directly under the king is implemented. The king appoints the court nobles to be the governor and the city lord, which is not hereditary.

"That way the vassals will definitely resist." Mr. Oreo and Cavalier Rebeca were taken aback. This step is too big.

"They dare not resist." Luther said with a faint smile.

The two of them glanced at the dozing eaglet on Luther's shoulder again, and thought of the consul Count Libya, who was far away in the Golden City, and all the 27 nobles who supported Luther, and fell silent for a while.

Compared to Pompeii's strength, this group of people is too weak.

"However, it caused their fierce resistance. I decided to make some compensation. For powerful vassals like Bixing and Alton, I am willing to pay [-] gold coins at a time to obtain the territory he inherited from generation to generation. Ordinary vassals, There are only three thousand gold coins. After they lose their territory, they will have no livelihood. I will provide them with guard work, join me, and become my knights."

Luther went further.

Take your territory and let you serve me.

It sounds a bit far-fetched.But Luther still felt that the feasibility of this matter was very high. On the one hand, Luther had the Eagle King, who could suppress all the changes of these knights.

On the other hand, the new party is rebelling now, and the vassals who lost their land may become cannon fodder if they go to other people's territories. They might as well stay in the familiar Silver Wing collar and gather under the banner of Pompeii to survive.

All in all, Luther is now on the hook, and he can do whatever he wants.

Go ahead and do it.

Of course, you must never play with the Earl of Libya or the Duke of Ferger, otherwise you will be in bad luck.

Cavalier Rebecca and Mr. Oreo looked at each other for a moment, and then fell silent. They also had to admit that Luther is now the king.

"After we control the entire Silver Wing Collar, our first task is to recruit back the residents who escaped from the Silver Wing Collar in the last Silver Wing chaos, and resume production and commercial activities. The second is to strengthen the training of the guards and strengthen the security in the city. A curfew is imposed. The next step is to train those noble knights who are capable but have never fought. Finally, we cooperate with the general of the mountains, that is, my father, the Pompeii knights, to set up checkpoints and defenses for the entire six territories."

Luther expressed all his thoughts during this period in one breath.

In fact, to put it bluntly is very simple.

Strengthen iron-fisted rule internally and strengthen centralization.

Cooperate closely with Dad to defend the six territories to deal with the increasingly serious problem of the new party.

As long as you keep going, the future is limitless.

"We understand." Mr. Oreo and Knight Rebecca had nothing to say. They looked at each other and nodded in unison.

"Okay." Luther nodded with a smile, then closed his eyes and said, "Silver Wing City is coming soon, let's take a rest first, and when we get to Silver Wing City, we will drive those clowns out of the Silver Wing Collar."

With the end of the conversation, the carriage fell silent.

The team quietly headed towards Silver Wing City.

Inside Silver Wing City.

Members of the Silver Wing family and vassals launched a rebellion, and they ordered the guards to close the gate of the Silver Wing City, strengthening internal control.

Externally, a group of knights were dispatched to monitor the actions of Pompeii's family.

And Luther ostentatiously summoned the knights and officials to come to Silver Wing City, naturally he did not escape the eyes and ears of these rebels.

After hearing the news, the rebels held a small military meeting in the castle hall.

Attending the meeting were Hansa Smith, Oren Smith, Darren Smith, Bixing, Alton, and two other important ministers of the Smith family.

The atmosphere in the hall is very dignified.
