After the war, it was time to count the dividends and digest the war income. Tens of thousands of boatmen and their families, thousands of knights and their families were arranged to wait in Ironshoe City.
After careful screening, these boatmen and knights will be relocated to Heima Island.
These jobs didn't make Liszt worry too much, he just needed to show up and accept the loyalty of the selected knights.
The construction of the Flame Territory is booming, and the search for overseas islands is also conscientious.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye in May, and among the captured knights, two more knights swore allegiance to Liszt, and one of them was the Count Juggernaut.
"Durt, are you really planning to give up your earl's fiefdom and title in the Eagle Kingdom and follow me?" Liszt was very surprised by the choice of the Juggernaut Earl-Durt Hongxingguo. It is impossible to become a fief earl in the Eagle Kingdom without any foundation.
Willing to give up the earl's fief, this courage cannot be underestimated.
After Duerte made the decision, he said calmly: "Your Highness, I do have an earl's fiefdom, and my family is very prosperous. However, my territory, Binhai, was originally waiting for the success of His Highness Alonso's plan to make military exploits from the sea. But now the eagle kingdom sea plan is over, and my progress has also been blocked."
Lister could not deny this.
Duerte continued: "But Your Highness plans to establish a new country, and opportunities to make military exploits can be seen everywhere, and with the strength of Your Highness and Your Excellency Akeroides Mage, dominating the blue sea is just around the corner... I was defeated and captured, maybe It is the guidance of the knight's glory!"
Defeated and captured, you can tell the glory of the knight.
Liszt wanted to laugh a little in his heart, but he didn't laugh out; "Now that you have made your decision, you can swear allegiance to me...but the ransom still needs to be paid, but I will keep the title of earl for you, and you can form knights yourself Regiment, fight with me and take your place in the new country."
"Thank you, Your Highness, Duerte Hongxingguo is willing to drive for His Highness!"
…
Originally, Liszt did not intend to retain the noble lords who surrendered to him, and continue to retain their titles. However, if you think about it carefully, once the new country is established, how many deserted islands will be waiting to be built.
Instead of letting him work hard on himself, it is better to throw these troubles to these loyal followers, keep their titles, and let them plunder the mainland frantically in order to develop the island. In this way, he only needs to focus on the development of a few large islands.
The nobles who surrendered to him, for their own benefit, obviously no longer have anything to do with the Eagle Kingdom.
Just like the nobles of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, even if the life on the island is not rich, they are still willing to stay in Sapphire for development, because they can grab it if they are not rich. Especially the feeling that you can only rob others by yourself, but others cannot rob you. This feeling is particularly addictive and inextricable.
Liszt also tasted the sweetness after several development orders, and now he is all about grabbing it!
If the Eagle Kingdom dares to play the battle of dragon slaying, it will take the Eagle Kingdom to the end and cut off a few big pieces of fat.
Therefore, he publicized the surrender of Duerte Hongxingguo. Of the five remaining sky knights who were unwilling to surrender, three immediately decided to surrender after hesitation. There are only two sky knights left, unwilling to surrender, only willing to pay the ransom and return to the Eagle Kingdom.
Calculating the time, their family members should have sent the ransom.
After recruiting nine sky knight followers in a row, Liszt was in a good mood, and he wanted to confer titles on his territory—rewarding the veteran followers of the territory.
Jevich, the captain of the expedition fleet, was promoted from a commoner to a viscount, which is equivalent to reinstatement as an official. However, the fiefdom has not yet been determined. Liszt also promised that when he finds a suitable archipelago to establish a country, he will be directly promoted to the earl.
Garcia, the head of the Knights of Ironshoe City, was promoted from a commoner to a viscount, which is equivalent to reinstatement of an official, and the fief is temporarily undecided; Fox, the head of the Knights of Black Horse Island, was promoted from a commoner to a viscount, which is also a reinstatement of an official, and the fief is temporarily undecided. These two former followers of Alonso Cyclamen have completely integrated into the Flame Clan.
Marcus, advisor to Kelp City and head of the Kelp Knights, was promoted from Lord Knight to Baron, and his fiefdom is yet to be determined; Galtai, advisor to Ironshoe City, was promoted from Lord Knight to Baron, and his fiefdom is temporarily undetermined; The knight was promoted to a baron, and the fief is temporarily undecided.
In addition, Griffin Haystack and other seven followers who were previously promoted to Lord Knight were all promoted to Baron, and the fiefdom has not yet been determined.
In addition, Patrol Leader Paris of Dark Horse Island, Blair, Administrative Officer of Ironshoe City, Isaiah, Administrative Officer of Kelp City, Zambrotta, Diplomat of Dark Horse Island, Costo, Sea Officer of Dark Horse Island, and Iron Knight Alvin Eagle Liszt was directly promoted to the baron of Jian and several other main officials of the territory, as well as the main backbone of the Knights.
A large number of middle-level officials and land knights were awarded the title of Lord Knight, completing the transition from commoner to noble.
Although many people's advancement and titles did not meet the requirements for military merit, Liszt didn't care at all, it was all empty promises anyway. These promises will only be fulfilled when the archipelago is found and the country is established. If you can't find it, you will hang a title of honor for the rest of your life.
If it is found, just like those sky knights who surrendered, the desert island can be picked at will.
Regardless of what happens next.
At least now the entire flame collar is seething. The knights and officials who have been promoted and knighted are in high spirits and praise the greatness of Liszt. The officials are full of energy, the knights are dedicated and loyal, and the foundation of the Flame Territory, which was originally impetuous due to its rapid expansion, quickly condenses.
Everyone can feel the benefits of following the dragon knight—the country has not yet been established, but just follow it out to rob once, and it will spread glory.
In the future, how much glory should be spread in the founding of the country!
In particular, the nine sky knights who had newly joined them had already swept away the grievances of being captured, and began to long for Liszt's founding of the country.
In this way.
Under the command of Liszt Flame, the Marquis of Flame, he has two followers of the Earl, the Earl of Anvil City, Nicole Bellows (Iron Knight), Duert Red Apricot; eleven followers of the Viscount, and more than thirty barons , Hundreds of Lord Knights. Quickly build a simple team of followers of the Marquis, which will also be the basic team for the founding of the country in the future.
Coupled with the team of followers of Marquis Oxtail, basically the basic framework of nation-building was completed.
In a good mood, Liszt gathered most of his followers in his castle of thorns and ate and drank for several days. In such an extravagant aristocratic atmosphere, A Ke gradually completed the incarnation of the ice attribute element, and because of her care, Nami, who was happy every day, finally began to slump.
Apathetic means evolving.
