Lord: Have many children and many blessings, build an empire from baron

A worthy wife.

You will always understand that when your man is fighting outside, you can silently pray for him at home.

And when he was no longer there, he took control of the family affairs.

Julia is such a wife.

She grew up with this kind of education.

When Lyn left Portia with the army, all matters inside and outside the castle fell on her shoulders.

And she did take good care of it.

Time passed day by day, but Lin En's return was not seen, and no news came back to Portia.

Despite knowing that once a war begins, it is likely to last for months or even years.

Just like the war her father had just experienced, even though it was small in scale, it lasted for more than half a year.

Such a long wait really tortured Julia.

She worries about her husband.

The same goes for Liya.

The two of them would always huddle in front of the same fire on winter nights, keeping each other warm and comforting each other.

Until this morning.

The sound of horse hooves broke Portia's tranquility.

Both wives became frightened at the same time.

They look forward to hearing news from the front line every day, but at this time, they suddenly become afraid.

"It's okay, sister Liya. Our husbands never teach us to be disappointed."Julia pretended to be calm and comforted.

In fact, she was even more panicked.

It was a messenger who came without any weapons.

He turned over and dismounted outside the castle. After the guard confirmed his identity, he let him enter the courtyard on foot. He saw the two lords and their wives. Afterwards, the messenger knelt down and saluted:

"Dear countess, the lord's motorcade is on its way back. He hopes that the servants can pack up and bow, and return to Mons with him today."

Liya was dizzy when she arrived.

Unexpectedly, after waiting day and night, she finally received bad news.

Linn was just a baron, not an earl.

And his territory was in Portia.

The messenger asked them to return to Monterey. Si, I'm afraid there is only one reason.

Could it be that... that Earl Gordon won the war?

"Return to Mons...? So, Lord Linn, he……"

Liya didn't dare to continue talking. There was already a soreness at the tip of her nose and her body was shaky.

Julia supported her and smiled:"Sister Liya, it seems that you are too worried about Linn. Didn't you hear clearly that the soldier called us Countess?

You! Tell me clearly. Are you Earl Linn? Order?"

By the end of 03, he was born into a noble family.

Julia acted calmer.

But at the end of the day, she was also afraid that what she was hearing was bad news and that it would kill her.

The messenger also realized that his expression was not detailed enough, and immediately apologized sincerely:

"Please forgive me, dear madam. It was indeed the order given by Count Linn, and now the entire Mons area is under his rule!"

"look."Julia wiped away the tears for Liya:

"Our husbands are the most wonderful men in the world.

He won the war in such a short time."

Such a result was indeed beyond her expectation.

Julia's father had been fighting with an opponent of comparable strength for more than half a year, but her husband defeated his opponent in just half a month.

Not only did she feel relieved, but she also She also felt happy.

Liya patted her heart gently and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since Lynn left Portia's wooden castle,

Liya, who couldn't feel her husband's presence by her side, had difficulty falling asleep almost every night. Now she can't even sleep. She was in a daze.

She burst into tears and smiled:"Sister, we are going to see Lin En and her husband.""

"Inform the servant quickly and do as he says."

The faces of the two wives showed indescribable joy at the same time.

………………

Linn returned to Portia this time, taking with him in addition to more than a thousand soldiers recruited from the village.

He also specially brought along Chad, the leader of the Vali mercenary group, and a hundred mercenaries.

He decided to let the men in the village return to a peaceful life.

Therefore, when returning to Mons from Portia, mercenaries need to take over the task of escorting the convoy.

Chad's mount was very close to Lynn.

His expression was complicated.

They were silently sizing up the young nobleman along the way.

Chad remembered when Norton approached him and wanted him to be loyal to his son-in-law.

His original intention was to refuse. At that time, his mercenary group also needed to rest.

It just happened that I heard a lot of rumors from businessmen.

I heard that the new lord of Portia is a kind nobleman who treats his subjects very kindly.

Chad had always wanted to find a lord worthy of entrusting Sylvie.

Only then did he agree by chance.

Otherwise, Chad had no particular impression of Lynn.

But now... he had to look at this young noble with admiration.

Chad thought that when he saw Linn and Sylvie fighting each other that night, the wizard talent displayed by Linn was the biggest surprise that Linn had given him.

Unexpectedly... Lin En's combat command ability is so unique!

Chad has been the leader of the Vali mercenary group for thirty years, and before that he was a knight.

He has served several lords and fought under their command.

His life was very simple.

It can be said that Chad is either on the battlefield or on his way to the battlefield.

He has experienced hundreds of wars, large and small.

No matter what kind of cruel battlefields and fighting methods, Chad thought he had seen them all.

Even if I am now lucky enough to command an entire legion.

Chad is also confident enough to defeat enemies far more powerful than him and achieve very beautiful results.

But after going through the battle in the Bone Swamp, I witnessed Linn's commanding art with my own eyes.

His confidence has long since disappeared!

What kind of war genius can make such a weird and bold military deployment?

An army of just over 2,000 people, more than half of which were composed of militiamen, actually defeated a far stronger opponent in just one night!

Besides, Lin En's side had only about a hundred casualties.

Even though Chad is battle-hardened.

Never before has he achieved such an amazing victory with such a huge disadvantage!

He was silent all the way.

He kept recalling the entire battle in his mind.

Thinking back to the fierce Earl Gordon, who was chased so embarrassingly by the militiamen.

He fell into the trap prepared by Lin En for him in an exhausted state.

I even thought that the indestructible Castle of Mons was captured by a mere two hundred mercenaries.

The whole process is like the iron rings on the chainmail, one ring inside the other.

Chad felt more shocked every time.

In his mind, Linn was like an excellent fighter.

In the war ring, he used storm-like fists to beat Gordon without any resistance.

And Chad as an audience member.

He actually couldn't figure out what method the other party used to win so quickly.

The less he understands.

The more he admired this noble boy.

Even though Lynn was decades younger than him, Chad wanted to consider him his teacher.

But...

I'm afraid he won't have this honor anymore.

Chad thought with disappointment.

He fought with Earl Norton for half a year.

I originally thought that Lin En's war would last for several months, but I didn't expect that under his genius commanding ability.

It was over in less than half a month.

Without war, mercenaries would naturally be of no use to the lords.

It seems that this winter, Chad will have to lead the Vali mercenary group to fend for themselves.

"Captain Chad. Lin En, who was also speechless all the way, suddenly said:

"I'm afraid your mercenary group will continue to serve me for a while."

Chad looked at Lynn in astonishment.

He had mixed feelings in his heart, as if this noble lord could still see into people's hearts and already knew what he was thinking.

"Happy to oblige!"Chad didn't hesitate at all.

No one would be unhappy with receiving a salary for free in peacetime.

Especially being able to serve under a lord like Lin En made Chad even more excited.

How he wished he could accompany Lin En through the experience again A battle, so that he can learn some combat skills from his side.

Even if he can only learn a little bit, it is a treasure far more precious to him than gold.

Naturally, Lin En is not merciful and worried about the mercenaries. They had no food to eat in the winter.

Now he has just ruled the Mons area. There is no standing army available around him.

After all, he needs an armed force to serve him and consolidate his rule in the new territory. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Flying Lu Novel Network!)

Moreover... every winter, the monsters in the Borderlands around the territory will become more active. They can't stand the torture of hunger and will set their sights on the humans in nearby villages.

Lin En needs someone to deal with these troublesome things for him.

As for the high wages of mercenaries, it is no longer a headache for him now.

After the battle in Gordon's castle,

Lin En obtained the More than two thousand gold coins and tens of thousands of silver coins were searched in the warehouse.

There were also various treasures.

The total value was estimated to be as high as about two thousand five hundred gold coins.

In addition, there were several books on fighting spirit secrets.

It's a pity. They were only around the second level, and Linn looked down upon them.

But there was a third-level advanced breathing method.

This really surprised Linn, he just needed this.

In addition, with the arrival of Vincent's letter, There were also several carriages of goods.

The Duke not only sent Linn a thousand gold coins, but also various high-grade fabrics, wine, spices and other daily necessities.

Not only did this battle not make him poorer and poorer , but gained a lot of money.

Now Lin En's wealth has reached an unprecedented level of wealth.

At least for a long time.

He does not need to worry about money.

Except for this ready-made wealth.

Rule. Linn behind the Mons area.

A large amount of tax revenue can be obtained from this land every year.

The wealth here is far beyond what could have been imagined during the reign of Portia!

Mons has a large population, and the residents are generally relatively wealthy.

Just one head per year

Lin En can get more than 60 gold coins in revenue from this tax.

However, the Mons area is not only filled with farmers, there are also large and small manufacturing industries, and frequent caravans.

So now, in addition to his family In addition to the poll tax, there are also two sources of tax revenue: industrial tax and commercial tax.

Added up, the total revenue for a year has reached about two hundred gold coins.

This is just the beginning.

The economic potential of the Mons region But it's more than that.

Lin En has secretly made up his mind.

After next spring, he will vigorously develop the territory and make the area richer.

The tax revenue brought to him by this area will further increase.

Of course,

Lin En has to survive it first. The impact of cold winter.

Winter not only affects the security of the territory.

It also affects the economy of the territory.

…………

The convoy slowly entered Portia's territory.

All the soldiers received a warm welcome.

They are victors, returning in triumph.

The people of Portia stood on both sides of the road and cheered.

Of course, the highest honor goes to Lynn.

For the victor to return safely with all his troops is a feat greater than victory itself.

Lin En seems to be the greatest man in the hearts of the people of Portia at this moment.

The soldiers who were discharged and returned to the fields excitedly rushed into the crowd and hugged their wives.

The women also looked at the young lord with respect and eager eyes.

They prostrate themselves on the ground to express their highest respect for Lynn.

Even Chad was moved.

He has been to countless battlefields and visited the territories of countless nobles.

But it was the first time I felt such warm cheers.

This Lynn.

It always gave him greater shocks time and time again.

Chad felt that his decades of military career seemed to be less valuable than this short half-month.

Linn drove his horse through the enthusiastic crowd.

I saw the two beautiful wives outside the wooden castle from a distance.

Their eyes are so eager and their smiles are so sweet.

It started the moment I saw Lynn.

Julia and Liya were already happy.

Due to her limited mobility, Julia did not step forward to greet him.

Liya, on the other hand, held out her slightly bulging belly.

He walked forward quickly and stood under Lin En's horse, 953 waiting for her husband's favor.

She had been waiting for this moment day and night.

All it takes is a kiss from Lynn.

It was enough to offset the sorrow she had felt for many days

"You are finally back!"Liya smiled like a flower, as happy as a little girl.

Linn kissed her gently on the forehead, hugged her and walked towards Julia. He also shared this love with his first wife.

But it was still the same. The intensity has not weakened at all.

Julia also smiled:"Dear husband, long time no see.

It's cold outside, let's go in and warm up first."

The waiting and longing for many days, the grievances and tortures endured.

From the moment they saw Lin En, everything turned into honey in their hearts, which had already made Julia and Liya intoxicated.

The family of three was here Portia ate in the warm wooden castle.

The servants had already prepared everything.

After this time, Linn would take all his wives to Mons to start a new life.

Looking at the place where he grew up,

Linn suddenly Direct and a bit reluctant

"Where is sister Astrid?"Julia was all focused on her husband, and then she remembered to ask.

Lynn shrugged:"She is already setting up Mons' new home for us."

Before setting off this time,

Linn specially left Astrid and Sylvie in Mons Castle, letting them take charge of everything there.

In a world like this, the only ones that all noble lords can trust most are blood relatives of their own family.

As for Linn, his family currently does not have any blood relatives or reliable brothers and sisters.

Therefore, these wives who are very fond of him and absolutely loyal have naturally become his biggest support.

This is undoubtedly Reminding Linn.

If you want to make the Casar family great, in addition to money and the army, it is especially important to cultivate more heirs.

"Wow, I'm so envious of sister Astrid. If I hadn't been pregnant, I would have been able to accompany Linn on the battlefield this time."Liya said suddenly.

Julia laughed at her:"I'm afraid it's sister Astrid who is envious of you now, right? You already have your husband’s blood in your belly……"

Speaking of which.

Julia turned to Linn and said:"It seems that now we can rest peacefully for a while. My dear, don't waste your good time.

Sister Astrid is also pregnant."……"

Lin En said dumbly:"Of course...I know, I know……"

Perhaps because Astrid is an elf, there is no sign of pregnancy yet.

It seems that after going back this time.

Lin En will inevitably have to be busy with her for a while.

After the meal.

Except for the two wives Julia and Liya.

Lynn also brought Old Billy and Sister Elisa, as well as the servants who had been serving them in Portia for many days.

When you arrive in a brand new place, you feel more at ease with familiar people around you.

Especially Aunt Alyssa.

Lynn heard from Julia that she had extensive experience in delivering babies.

It is really an important talent for him.

And...she will be needed soon..
