prince of europe in quintiles

In desperation, Schmalen could only agree to this request.Everyone else has been arrested, otherwise what should we do?

Many lords who disagreed with the collegiality after the defeat were imprisoned until death.Their lands will also be held by tyrants for a long time, until everyone acquiesces.

After hearing the news, the Earl of Arendsey thought that the bishop had done a good job.The ceding of the castle is only half of it.

After the three parties sign the agreement, the contract will come into force.

Huo Teng, through his own efforts, successfully laid down the first piece of territory.

Congratulations on unlocking [Millhouse Castle Master]

Unlock the common unit [garrison sergeant]

Ordinary arms: Garrison sergeants (40 bases, monthly salary 5 gold. They are all well-trained fighters, able to securely protect the safety of the castle, and bravely attack the enemy during the defense battle. But if you want to invite them to fight, More costs are required.)

Unlock the excellent unit [Retinue Knight]

Excellent unit: retinue knights (the base number is 20 people, monthly salary is 20 gold, and the recruitment fee is [-] gold. Retinue knights refer to those trainee knights who have not yet obtained the official title of knight. Even so, they still have mastered almost all war skills Correspondingly, they are also ridiculously expensive. Trait: Mass charge, the charge of knights is unimaginably powerful.)

To Huo Teng's surprise, he got his first knight unit.

Although the recruiting fee and maintenance fee of this thing are outrageously expensive, but if you can get a retinue knight in a short period of time, it will still change the battlefield situation unprecedentedly.

But having said that, Huo Teng also began to worry about how to report to Conosha.

The narrow-mindedness of this woman must have personally gone to Fort Millhouse to tell Huo Teng what to do.

In this regard, Huo Teng also kept his own narrow mind.

……

Count Arun Deser invites Count Schmallen to drink a glass of wedding wine to wish him escape from prison.

At the banquet, Schmalen couldn't hide his sadness.

Arendser persuaded him cunningly: "What are you afraid of? Why don't you just build a castle next to it? I'll help you pay for it!"

Chapter 49 Bonus Time, Castle Properties

The division of the Earl of Millhouse is actually similar to the division between Israel and Palestine, with each side occupying half of the territory and the capital.

Arendser, however, was willing to lend Schmalen a castle to build on the other side of town.In this way, Huo Teng's effect of occupying the castle was greatly offset.It can even be said that since the town is in the hands of Schmalen, the castle above Horten Tower has to transport supplies from other places, but it is at a disadvantage.

"Hmph, you are still cunning and cunning." Shimalun couldn't help but admire him.

It is said to be capital contribution, but it is actually a loan.Arun Desai will definitely use this to force Shimalun to surrender.From an almost independent earl to a controlled earl.

In the Middle Ages, it was not uncommon for one king to be subject to another king, and one earl to serve another earl.It mainly depends on the relative strength of the two sides.

Arendsey smiled and said nothing.

Anyway, he just came to fight the autumn wind and ensure the integrity of the northwest side of his territory.As for Schmalen's surrender or death, it is actually a profit.

Huo Teng also made money. He got a beautiful fortress. Although it is not the most advanced stone city wall, it is still a good idea when most people don't even have wooden city walls and have to use wooden fences as city walls. choose.More importantly, the southeast of Göttingen was safe.As long as Fort Millhouse is defended, Huo Teng's rear will be safe.

Bishop Magde also gained a lot.It just so happens that the reformists are making a fuss at the moment, and this mission has also won the friendship of Alen Desai, Schmalen and Huo Teng, so he can face it calmly.

The only one injured was Schmallen who started the war.

Bullying his sister has never been beaten, not to mention losing face among his brothers, and his status has changed from almost independent to a vassal of Arendresai.Miserable.

On the other side, Huo Teng also checked the properties of Millhouseburg.

Fort Millhouse.

[Current castle level: Level 2, wooden castle. 】

[Current castle buildings: Lord's House Level 1, Strengthened Wooden City Wall Level 2, Noble Stable Level 1, Arrow Tower Level 1]

This is a second-tier castle, but obviously, there are a few main buildings missing.Huo Teng privately speculates that this may be a weakening mechanism of the system. When the city is occupied, the city will be downgraded, or some buildings will be deleted to prevent it from being too strong.

Wooden castle (level 2): ​​total number of maintenance-free arms +2, monthly tax +5 gold, recruitable arms: civilian spearmen, civilian archers.

Lord's House (Level 1): The morale of the defending army +1, law and order +2, can issue guard policies.Automatically get Elite Affairs Officer: Sergeant Captain.

Noble Stables (Level 1): Provides horse resources and can recruit arms: Peasant Cavalry Sergeant.

Strengthen the wooden city wall (level 2): ​​provide reinforced wooden city walls, provide auxiliary buildings with arrow towers, and gates, and add 1 team of civilian spearmen and 1 team of civilian archers to the castle.

In terms of construction, the minimum income has been increased to 5 gold per month. With the grid of two maintenance-free units, you can raise four or five teams of basic militias, but you can hold the castle firmly without falling in the first place.After cooperating with the reinforced wooden city wall, a garrison of at least 300-[-] people can be guaranteed.

In addition, it is worth seeing the noble stables.This is a good building, mainly responsible for training the arms of the noble knight system.

But the most basic level 1 noble stables are not enough.Only Peasant Mounted Sergeants can be recruited.

The so-called peasant cavalry sergeant is actually the horse-riding version of an ordinary sergeant.As the subordinates and retinues of knights, the main task of cavalry sergeants in combat is scouting and flank protection, and they also have the ability to charge at critical moments.However, the combat effectiveness of cavalry sergeants from peasant backgrounds is always far inferior to that of formally trained knights.

Huo Teng already had a peasant riding bow, so why recruit such a group of people.

"It seems that we have to find a way to get the blueprint of the second level of the noble stable." Huo Teng groped his chin.

The retinue knights that he can recruit may be the product of the noble horse system.Guess it is a noble knight that can be produced at level 2 stables.

The family knows their own affairs.

Huo Teng has about [-] gold coins in his hand. Such a huge price is enough to be called rich.But Huo Teng's main income came from plundering other nobles and winning battles.

And the basic income, relying on the combined market, city and castle, a dozen gold coins a month, is not enough to feed the army in hand.

Therefore, Huo Teng began to actively seek ways to expand his income.

According to Huo Teng's own calculations, the income of a town should increase exponentially, that is, the higher the level of the town, the more double the income.At the same time, there should be a strong cooperation between the different buildings, otherwise the town's income would be appallingly low, how would it be possible to feed the army.

In the next two days, because the armistice treaty had been reached, the Göttingen knights who came to help began to pack their bags and go home.

Powerful aristocrats including Baron Kenan and Knight Wagner all looked at Huo Teng with admiration.

Many people began to plan, and when Jones and Huo Teng's friend's marriage ended, they would formally introduce their daughter to Huo Teng.

Similarly, many local knights whose territory was cut off by Huo Teng also began to pack their bags, some considered staying, and some hoped to seek new hopes in other places.

As mentioned earlier, the legitimacy of the medieval knights’ power over the territory came from the guardianship granted by the lord.This power is in principle not inherited.But no matter where in the world it is, it is a traditional custom for the father to die and the son to succeed.Therefore, this guardianship also extends from one generation to the next.

But if the lord is changed and the lord refuses to recognize the legitimacy of his guardianship, it will be difficult for the knight to fight or something.After all, his strength is very limited.

As for Huo Teng, it took him more than ten days to adjust who could stay and who had to be driven away.

After a period of adjustment, Huo Teng vacated ten villages to reward those soldiers of his own who had made great contributions.

Calling these veterans recruited from the system, Huo Teng felt a little emotional.

In fact, at the beginning, Huo Teng just used them as tools.Who would have thought that people like Greb and Jeffrey could help Huo Teng achieve such a great success?

"Jeffrey, I personally canonize you as my knight, and enjoy exclusive guardianship of a village. And help me stay in Millhouse Castle, and be alert to Schmaelen's next move." Huo Teng was the first, and he chose Jeffrey.

The wandering knight Geoffrey couldn't help being moved to tears. If one of those nobles could discover his talent, he wouldn't have to spend half his life as a robber.

"Henrik, thank you for your help. You will have one-third of the guardianship." Huo Teng turned around and also thanked Henrik who dug the manure to decide the victory.

The unlucky knight who had been butterfly swimming in feces for a long time, shed tears of sadness.

After rewarding more than [-] people one after another, Huo Teng successfully acquired a trait.

[Fair incentives: Morale +1, Loyalty +1]

Chapter 50 Politics in the Principality

When the news of Millhausburg reached Göttingenburg, the countess was putting on makeup.

In the evening she will have a formal dinner with Mrs. Marianne and Mrs. Scharra, who are guests in Göttingenburg.Although the latter two were guests in name, everyone who knew it knew that it was because the Countess had no idea and forcibly retained the two ladies to live with her.

At this moment, when she picked up the lipstick and was about to apply it on her slightly dry red lips, the maid broke in, causing her to snap off the precious lipstick.At this time, lipstick has not been demonized as a symbol of witches, and is still a favorite cosmetic for noble women.

"If you don't explain clearly what it is, I'll punish you to clean the stables!" Connorsa pinched her waist angrily and stood up, staring at the little maid who didn't understand the rules.

The maid couldn't help stammering, and it took a long time before she could speak: "Sir, no, the palace minister, uh... anyway, Huo Huo Huo... His Excellency Horten Bowenden, just defeated Earl Schmaelen in the forest battle Your Excellency, and then... and... took Millhouse Castle..."

This maid was born in a noble family anyway, and although she couldn't speak bluntly, she made it clear.

Connorsa gave up the lipstick and foundation she was so excited about, and didn't even have time to put on her shoes. She ran out of the room barefoot and looked at the gate of the castle.Her slender jade legs were exposed to the wind, and the skirt didn't even cover the most critical parts.Haoxuan, it was the maids who held the countess, dressed her and shoes, and then came downstairs slowly, maintaining the countess' majesty.

Downstairs, a panting messenger was telling everyone about the situation in Millhouse.

"What? Huo Teng defeated and captured my brother on the main battlefield, and took down Millhausburg in less than five days? That is a famous big city in Weimar County... This..." Kang Nuosha admitted that she still underestimated Huo Teng.

With such an impressive record, does the nearby Principality have any geniuses who can match it?

Nothing.

Even a knight who can conquer a castle within two months is very famous.After all, it's a game of life.

A castle, 25 villages, such a large territory, can be divided into two barons.Moreover, Conosha promised Huo Teng before leaving that she would give Huo Teng the title of Baron.

Connorsa couldn't help hesitating, she didn't know if she could control such an outstanding man.

If... If Gao Gang supported, Connorsa would make a marriage contract with Huo Teng according to her oath to God. I don't know if it would be better.

Moreover, she personally promised her best friend Jones to Huo Teng as a partner, to keep an eye on him for herself.I don't know how it works.

If Horten took Millhouseburg and turned around and claimed the earldom, or sworn allegiance to another earl, the chances of such a thing happening were small but not impossible.There have been several cases of Marshal mutiny in history.

With such anxiety, Connorsa couldn't wait any longer, so she simply went to find two guests to resolve her worries together.

The two ladies also heard about the incident in the guest room, and they congratulated each other as soon as they met: "It's really great, the threat of Schmallen is far away from Göttingen, and our peace has returned to the wilderness."

Mrs. Shala also specifically said: "I knew for a long time that Huo Teng is an excellent talent. But I didn't expect that he would be so outstanding. I should have married my niece to him if I knew it earlier."

This doesn't mean it's okay, as soon as she said that, Conorsha became even more flustered.

Mrs. Shara looks hot and seductive, with a mature charm, and her niece must not be too bad.

"How could it be. I've already married Huo Teng, no, no, I've already arranged a marriage for Huo Teng. We'll talk about the rest later." Connorsa waved her hands hastily, her anxiety couldn't be concealed on her face.

Mrs. Sharra couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering.

How could she fail to see what Conorsha was thinking?

Young women are still a little too tender.

However, Mrs. Shara sincerely wanted to marry her niece over.In this way, two holes can be cunning, and Huo Teng's military power can also ensure that his fief next to the capital will not be eroded.

Therefore, when Mrs. Marianne talked about him and didn't want to get involved in these things, Mrs. Sharra and Connorsa just talked to each other and gave each other eye drops.

After talking for a while, probably because they realized that it was meaningless to hurt each other, the two finally got down to business.

What business?

Intervention that may come at any time from the Principality's capital.

For the Grand Duke, Huo Teng punched Shimalun to the ground, which was great, but he lost a direct earldom in vain.

This means that he lost a feudal obligation, an earl, nearly a hundred knights, and an army of hundreds of people.For the Grand Duke, who is not a big direct-controlled leader, it is tantamount to cutting out his heart.

Therefore, Dagong Bacheng will lower the interference.

According to the general routine, Dioderic will send a priest as an envoy, Xiaoyu Conorsha, Shimalun has already known the mistake and has been punished, you also think that for the sake of brothers and sisters, let him go and return the territory to him Bar.

Even what to say, Connorsa guessed.

But it is not easy to resist.

Diodoric, at any rate, the Grand Duke of Lorraine with thousands of knights and tens of thousands of troops, has no good fruit to fight against him.

But just letting go of her brother Shimalun so easily, Connosha couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.

"Don't worry, how can Andreas and I not help you do some activities?" Sia La said, but what she actually thought of was the task entrusted to her by the bus.

Get Conosha back to the capital, and marry the grand duke's son as soon as possible.

Mrs. Shara has her own little Jiujiu.He is not optimistic about the Grand Duke's stupid son, but he thinks that Huo Teng has great development potential.

Moreover, Andreas's stupidity is also increasingly manifested.

Madam Shala is not anyone's vassal, she is also a countess, and she is good at dancing and powerful.She has her own independent family interests, which neither the Grand Duke nor Andreas can change.

Therefore, Mrs. Shala suggested: "I suggest you go to Fort Millhouse now and meet with Huo Teng. On the one hand, you should quickly tie up your little brave general, and on the other hand, you have to be careful of the capital."

Connorsa nodded repeatedly.

So she arranged for the guards, and hurried to the southeast the next morning.

……

On the other side, the news of Huo Teng's victory also spread to the monastery.
