From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 22 Allen's past (for collection)
"I was born in the earl family in the west of the Kingdom - a distant branch of Davis. My father was a brave and skilled baron. He once made great achievements in the war against the orcs and was entrusted in the city of Manyu.

However, in the winter of six years ago, because of the negligence of the governor of the Western Border Defense, a team of more than 1000 orcs fled into the kingdom.

They rushed into Manyu City by mistake, father and mother died in battle, and the entire Manyu City was slaughtered by orcs. I fled to my uncle's territory under the protection of the chief knight.

He is the brother of my father and mother. I thought I could get help from him. At the beginning, he did send troops to repel the orcs. Later, he put us under house arrest and declared that there were no survivors in our family.

Later, I escaped by chance, and I found out later that my uncle's second son inherited the title of our family. According to the kingdom's law, he is the most suitable heir besides me. "

Allen spoke calmly, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

Ryan looked at him with a complicated face. All his family members died, and he was stabbed in the back by his closest uncle. It is simply a miracle that Allen has not become black under such circumstances and can still abide by the virtues of chivalry.

"Actually, you have many ways to make them pay."

"I know that whether it is to disclose this matter to the main branch, or to report them in the noble court, my uncle will pay a huge price.

However, I choose to give up.Anyway, he took back my parents' remains, avenged his revenge, and held a grand funeral, and my uncle didn't bother me after I escaped.

For that, I am grateful to him.

The title... If you don't have it, it's gone. I believe that I can also make meritorious deeds like my father and get the title. "

Allen's face was full of seriousness, without any resentment or memory of the title.

"But when you made meritorious deeds, they blocked your way up, so do you still feel grateful?" Ryan couldn't help but sneered.

"That wasn't done by my uncle, he's just a viscount, and he hasn't the ability to obliterate my meritorious deeds, I think, it should be the master's contribution.

They were afraid that if I told the truth at the conferment ceremony after I was knighted, it would be a huge blow to the interests of the entire Davis family, which they could not accept. "

Allen explained the key point in one sentence, the person who can make Chelsea jealous, and who interferes in the merit review, except for the Earl of Davis himself, who else?
"Hehe, but they never cared about your real thoughts." Ryan sneered again and again. He is worthy of being a master of nobles. After discovering a mistake, he does not solve the mistake, but directly solves the source of the mistake.

Think about it too, Allen has been in the army for so long, how could the Davis family not find out?But instead of taking Allen back to correct that mistake, they made another mistake in order to maintain the family's reputation and interests.

I just don't know why they didn't choose to kill Allen, which is very inconsistent with the nobles' code of conduct.

Thinking of this, Ryan also knew why Alan didn't leave with him. The Davis family is indeed not something he can afford to offend. As long as he is a normal person, he knows how to choose.

However, he is Ryan Ray Black!Never play by the rules.

Ryan put his hands on his shoulders and said seriously: "As long as you accept my enlistment, what about the Davis family, I am a pioneering lord, a border barrier, and a nobleman of the kingdom that His Majesty is about to confer personally!
No matter how powerful the Davis family is, can they send troops to attack me casually?Even if that day does come, remember what I told you?There is a weapon that allows civilians to defeat superhumans.It can make ants shake the majestic city!
That's real, not my imagination. "

Allen stared blankly at Ryan's eyes, his blue pupils were full of seriousness and confidence.

I don't know why, but he actually believed what Ryan said, even though it seemed... as unreliable as a vow made on Valentine's Day night.

But so what?He saved his own life, and if it's a big deal, he will give it back to him.

Allen knelt on one knee, put his hand on his chest, and said solemnly: "I, Allen Davis.

I swear allegiance to you, I will be the sharpest sword and the strongest shield in your hands, and protect everything about you with my life, from generation to generation, until death! "

Ryan also looked solemn and serious. He pulled out his saber, put it on Allen's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "I, Ryan Ray Black. Accept your allegiance."

After all, he patted the sword three times, and the whole ceremony was completed. During the war, all the etiquette is simple. If it is a full set of etiquette, it will be very cumbersome and complicated.

He doesn't like troublesome things.

Ryan helped Allen up, and handed him a piece of animal skin paper, which was densely written with many clauses. This is a blood contract oath, which is said to be a contract watched by the gods.

But Ryan thinks this stuff is nonsense. After all, if the contract is valid, how can there be rebellion in this world?

The only function of this thing is to serve as evidence of Allen's allegiance to Ryan. If Ryan entrusts Allen with a title in the future, if he sings against Ryan, Ryan or his descendants can rely on this contract to attack reasonably.

After all, in this world, it is also famous for paying attention to teachers.

Allen signed the contract happily, and he had already made up his mind, so naturally he would not be entangled in this, even if it was a prostitution contract, he would sign it without hesitation.

Ryan was overjoyed, and finally he didn't let this talent slip away from his hands. The border is so dangerous, how dare he go around without a few talents.

Next, he will consider recruiting soldiers. Needless to say, Ham and the others have already sworn allegiance, so they will naturally take them away. For the remaining places, Ryan decided to face the officers of the fifth battalion under his leadership first.

First, a few brigade commanders were recruited. They were at least junior knights, educated, capable, and experienced in combat.

Ryan offered them a generous offer of entrusting the manor and an annual salary of [-] Kindler. Five of the eight people directly refused. Although three of them showed intentional expressions, they all retreated when they heard that they were at the border.

Reluctantly, Ryan had no choice but to call his team leader again, offering a high annual salary that was one-third higher than that of the kingdom, and making various promises. This time, more than a dozen of the nearly [-] people agreed straightforwardly.

But not because of the monthly salary, just because of his personal prestige, they are willing to trust Ryan.

This number made Ryan very dissatisfied. His plan was to recruit at least half of the officers for the [-] places, but it seemed impossible.

He had no choice but to send someone to release the news to see how many people in other troops were willing, and then he recruited soldiers if there were vacancies.

At the same time, among the many troops, he also targeted a group of officers who were about to retire due to injuries. These people could not go into battle to kill the enemy, and the training was good.

Three days passed quickly, and finally more than [-] grassroots officers were recruited. In addition to Allen, the commander of the brigade also had a knight named Drey Gleeson, who had been a battalion-level adjutant, and was not young. alone.Willing to fight for a title with Ryan.

The remaining more than 100 people are all experienced soldiers, as well as ten disabled veterans carefully selected by Ryan, who together form Ryan's team.

Oh, and old Jack was in it too.
