Chapter 807: The Prosperity of the Principality of Kamai (3 Chapters in 1)

Remember【】in a second, providing you with wonderful novels to read.

Not all knights came from wealthy nobles. Although many nobles retained the inheritance of knights, it was almost a set of armor and weapons passed down from the family, and there were no other valuable items.

Just like Earl Bennett back then, if Earl Bennett was captured on the battlefield, he would not be able to pay enough ransom.

The same is true for most of the nobles, so these knights will enter their respective principality knight regiments to find opportunities for change.

There are generally two purposes for joining the knights of various principalities. One is to improve their own strength. These knight families themselves lack inheritance or the inheritance is not perfect, so they want to join the knight army of the principality to improve their strength.

The other is that the family itself is rich. They have a good inheritance and enough family background. They join the Knights Legion for power. Whether it is military exploits or their own promotion in the Knights Legion, their goals are all.

The five duchies had no way to redeem all their knights, and these 10,000 knights were thrown into the Duchy of Kamai.

And how to deal with these knights has become a big problem. It is a pity to kill them, but if these knights want to transfer to the Duchy of Kamai, they can't make them feel at ease.

After these captives were locked up in the captive camp in the city of Gamba for a month, despair spread in the captive camp. Ten thousand knights were eagerly waiting to be redeemed from the moment they were captured, until they saw a powerful Knights of family background leave the prisoner camp.

Until a month later, no captured knights were redeemed and left the camp.

A feeling of being betrayed by their own principality rose from their hearts. They fought for their respective principalities, but their principalities just left them behind, regardless of their life or death.

Among the more than 10,000 knights, the vast majority of knights are middle and low-level knights, while there are not many high-level knights and knight commanders. Most of the knights of these two levels have been redeemed.

Because a family that can cultivate two levels of knights, such as senior riders and knight commanders, will not have too little wealth.

That morning, all the 10,000 captive knights were assembled in the square. These knights were all pale from starvation, and they completely lost their powerful knight demeanor.

The person in charge of guarding these knights here is Grand Knight Commander Bodley. Although members of his family left Nejin City early, they were not harmed.

However, due to the looting of Neijin City,

It also caused heavy losses to his family. You must know that his family members were in a hurry when they left, and the property they could take away was limited, especially because of the rebellion in Inner City, Abel did not send anyone to Inner City.

That is to say, although the war between the Principality of Kamai and the five principalities has ended and the Principality of Kamai has won, the lost Neijin City has not been recovered, which makes Neijin City nominally the city of the Principality of Thunder.

It is also for this reason that Abel stopped delivering food to Inner Jin City a month ago, which also made it impossible for the family of the Grand Knight Commander Bodley to return to the territory in a short time.

This made Grand Knight Commander Bodley extremely angry. He knew that Abel would give him an explanation, but he didn't have a good temper with the 10,000 knights who caused his family to lose their territory.

Due to the knight's code, he couldn't abuse these knights, but to manage these knights more strictly, so that these knights can only eat some food to maintain the minimum physical fitness every day, is something that can be done within the scope of his authority.

And as long as he committed a crime and disobediently took prisoner knights, he would never show mercy. This made more than 10,000 knights prisoners, each of whom feared him very much.

Coupled with the suppression of their own strength, although the mood of more than 10,000 knights became more and more desperate, they did not appear to act excessively.

These knights are waiting for the Principality of Cameron, waiting for Abel's decision, a decision about their fate.

As for how to deal with the captives, the knights who could not pay the ransom usually sell them into slaves, or throw them into the mines after abolishing their grudges, and they will never see the sun again for the rest of their lives, or directly kill them. drop them.

Of course, if the captured knights are innocent, there may be a small number of recruits. This kind of opportunity is generally rare, and the main reason is the issue of loyalty.

The inheritance of knights in each principality is passed down in the families of knight nobles. Even if knights are recruited, they will betray because of the family.

Just when more than 10,000 knights were panicking, the figure of Abel wearing a wizard's robe appeared on the wooden platform at the front of the prison camp in a white light.

"Intermediate wizard!" Among the more than 10,000 knights, some knights had already recognized what the white light was just now. It was the light of 'teleportation', and whispered out of the knight's mouth.

A powerful mid-level wizard, Abel was already a mid-level wizard at a young age, and the knights present all had a kind of thoughtful and terrified thought.

Although wizards cannot participate in the secular world, this is a rule, a rule of the wizard guild, and a rule that all wizards must abide by.

But this kind of rule is particularly weak when facing Abel, the master blacksmith, because the status of a master blacksmith is more noble than a junior wizard.

Just like when those distinguished people call Abel, they will use Abel's master instead of Abel's wizard, and they all agree that the master blacksmith is Abel's master.

So even the wizard guild didn't regard Abel as a simple wizard, but a blacksmith and part-time wizard.

That's why Abel, as a wizard, can become a duke and the king of a principality. On the one hand, it is because of his high military exploits that he must be rewarded in this way. On the other hand, he is the master blacksmith.

For ordinary knights, the identity of an intermediate wizard is the strongest in the world. They have never seen a senior wizard, and the strongest most knights have ever seen in their lifetime is an intermediate wizard.

If it is said that the more than 10,000 knights captured in the beginning were defeated in the war because of the absolute suppression of the equipment of the Principality of Cameron, then Abel's status as an intermediate wizard made them full of fear of the Principality of Cameron. .

Knights don't know how long intermediate wizards can live, but most knights are very clear about one thing. Some intermediate wizards in the principality have appeared in the principality when their grandparents, and when it comes to them, the intermediate wizards The wizard still hasn't changed much.

Mysterious King, Mighty King, Almost Immortal King, these words rose in the hearts of more than ten thousand captive knights, and their eyes were already fixed on Abel, on the mighty King who decided their fate.

"Knights, I regret to tell you that your principality has abandoned you!" Abel said loudly, looking around at the ten thousand captive knights below.

As soon as he finished speaking, more than 10,000 knight captives exploded in an instant.

Although they were already mentally prepared and could guess it from the situation in recent days, they still couldn't accept the result when they heard it with their own ears.

The war was initiated by their principality. This kind of national level war ended with the abandonment of the knights, which made them unacceptable.

"Quiet!" Abel said in a deep voice, and his body instantly rose. The dual-line Grand Knight Commander and Intermediate Wizard, coupled with the traces of dragon power unintentionally revealed, overwhelmed more than 10,000 knights in the entire captive camp. The captive suppressed.

The hearts of more than 10,000 captive knights sank almost at the same time. At that moment, they could hardly think or breathe.

Originally, more than a dozen knight leaders out of more than 10,000 knights were powerful knights, and their physical fitness was infinitely stronger than ordinary knights. Detained, short of food, and unarmed.

Even though Abel's suppression had spread to more than 10,000 captive knights, he still suppressed more than ten knight commanders.

More than 10,000 knight captives retreated with Abel's aura, and the entire captive camp breathed continuously, and all the knights focused their eyes on Abel again. Abel's strength was far beyond their expectations.

"Originally, my way of dealing with the enemies who invaded my Principality of Kamai was to throw you into the mine, and use your whole life to make up for what you did to the Principality of Kamai!" Abel said here At that time, the more than 10,000 captive knights below couldn't help being shocked. This was the worst result, but they seemed to hear the turning point in Abel's tone.

"However, the Principality of Kamai understands that you are bewitched by the Principality, and it is not your original intention to come to the Principality of Kamai, so I will give you two options. One is to abolish the fighting spirit and send it to the mines of the Principality of Kamai to work. After ten or twenty years, you will be free!" Abel said in a deep voice, changing his tone.

The more than 10,000 captive knights are not idiots, they can cultivate to become formal knights, and each of them has wisdom far beyond that of ordinary people.

What does it mean to work for twenty years, get rid of fighting spirit, and enter the mine, let alone twenty years, it is a lucky thing to live for five years. Besides, even if you really worked for twenty years, you can come out of the mine alive , that life will be ruined, what's the point of coming out alive!

More than 10,000 captive knights did not make a sound, they were all waiting for Abel to say another choice.

"The second choice is to become a knight of the Principality of Cameron. Of course, the premise is that you have to write to your family. They must migrate to the Principality of Cameron. Of course, the title of the original family will also be recognized in the Principality of Cameron. !” Abel said in a deep voice.

These two choices brightened the eyes of many captive knights present. You must know that a small family is a family with only one knight. If they cannot go back, the family will also be annexed by other nobles.

"Your Majesty King Abel, my family needs the permission of the Principality of Taikos to leave the Principality of Taikos. It may be difficult for the Principality of Taikos to agree to my family's relocation!" A knight leader stepped forward and said.

To be honest, the more than ten knight commanders who can stay here are knight commanders who are not valued in their principalities, and their families are very weak, but even so, the principality will not let the family of a knight commander move away from itself Principality.

The knight commander is also a kind of resource. As long as the knight commander's family is mastered, the knight commander cannot leave the principality.

Even if the knight commander is captured, he will not be able to serve other duchies, otherwise his family will be wiped out.

"I, the Principality of Kamai, wants your family to relocate. Which principality dares to stop it? The Principality of Taikos?" Abel laughed and asked back.

Only then did the knight commander realize that the strength of the Principality of Taikos has now fallen to the bottom, and although the war is over, the real liquidation has not yet ended, and the final conclusion of the war has not yet been carried out. If the requirements are not met, then the destruction of the country is at hand.

"Your Majesty King Abel, I, Knight Commander Jeremy, wish to be the sword in your hand, your enemy will be my enemy, your wish will be my command, and I will always submit to your throne , please accept my allegiance!" The knight captain Jeremy knelt on one knee and swore loudly.

Abel was very satisfied with the performance of Knight Commander Jeremy. This public statement had a great influence on other knights.

His figure disappeared in a flash of white light, and then appeared in front of Knight Commander Jeremy. He pulled out the great knight sword that he carried with him, tapped the left and right shoulders and head of Knight Commander Jeremy three times, Then he said in a deep voice, "I accept the allegiance of Commander Jeremy!"

Following Knight Commander Jeremy's allegiance, most of the knights in the captive camp chose to pledge their allegiance, especially the dozen or so knight commanders who, like Knight Commander Jeremy, pledged their allegiance to Abel.

The knights who did not pledge their allegiance on the spot did not refuse, but their circumstances were somewhat special, for example, there were two knights in the family, or the family relocation was too difficult.

When Abel left the captive camp, there were less than 3,000 knights captured in the entire captive camp.

Knight's allegiance is a solemn matter, and no knight will use false knight's allegiance to deceive, because the oath of allegiance is the most important part of the existence of the knight profession.

Since these knights were abandoned by the original principality, they are already free in terms of identity. The original oath can no longer restrain them, and the new oath will restore their identity from captives to knighthood.

Of course, this knight status can only obtain the life treatment of a knight at present, and if they really want to enjoy the knight training treatment of the Principality of Cameron, they have to wait for their family to be relocated to the Principality of Cameron.

The relocation of the family is a big project, but the Duchy of Kamai carried the power of victory in the war, so that the five duchies did not force these families into trouble.

In other words, what the five principalities want to do most now is to quickly relocate these families to the Principality of Cameron. You must know that these nobles are chasing them every day to ask for the redemption of the family knights.

It is the best thing for the Principality of Kamai to want these families now. These families have no knights. For these principalities, it is just more waste of food.

During the relocation of these knight families, representatives of the five principalities have also come to the Principality of Cameron. It is not that they did not send representatives before, but because Abel has been busy with the captives, he has no intention of communicating with the five principalities. Representatives to discuss.

"Your Majesty, there are too many knights in the Principality of Cameron. I am afraid it will be difficult for our Principality to accommodate these knight families!" Earl Brook bowed above the palace of Duke Cameron.

Abel rarely appeared in the palace, but because a war concerning the future of the Principality of Kamai had just ended, he had to stay in the palace of Gamba City because of some things that had to be dealt with.

The placement of the knight family is very troublesome. Among these knight families, the knight family with the coat of arms must at least prepare a fiefdom for it, which is the foundation of the knight family. If there is no such thing, those knight families will come to Cameron. Can't survive.

In addition, those knight families without a coat of arms must at least have a decent job, and there must be enough cities to accommodate them.

However, although there are not many knights in the Principality of Cameron, the nobles have already occupied the interests of every city. It is impossible to encroach on the interests of the nobles of the Principality of Cameron itself because of the foreign knight family!

"Earl Brook, I know what you mean, our Principality of Cameron is too small!" Abel said to Earl Brook with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty, our principality is too small!" Earl Brooke bowed excitedly and said.

"Father, you and Earl Brook negotiate with the five duchies and let them spit out enough land. I don't care how they coordinate among the five duchies. I need the Duchy of Cameron to have enough cities to welcome the coming knight family!" Abel turned his head and said to Earl Bennett beside him.

Abel's address to Earl Bennett made the important ministers of the Cameron Duchy very helpless. You must know that as a king, his status should be the most honorable in the duchy's formal occasions, but he still followed the original call.

But because his status is too noble and his own strength is too powerful, neither he is an important minister of the principality, nor Burbage, the palace steward who should have the duty of guidance, can't say much about it.

"Your Majesty, I will cooperate with Earl Brooke to participate in the negotiations, and I will definitely make the five principalities pay a price that makes them feel sad!" Earl Bennett bowed and saluted. He is different from Abel, and he will not be in the palace hall. I'm sorry.

Due to his own status, Earl Bennett is now an important power holder in the Principality of Cameron. Because there are not many members of the Harry family in Harvest City, and Earl Marshall will not participate in government affairs, the power of the original royal family is now basically controlled by He came to embody it.

One of the two earls of the royal family was given to Earl Marshall and the other to Earl Bennett. In the eyes of others, the Harvest City Harry family and the Bennett family are like one.

Abel didn't participate too much in the negotiations. This kind of matter should be handled by more experienced ministers. He would only lose face if he participated in this kind of matter.

A few months have passed, and with the arrival of spring, the Principality of Kamai seems to have ushered in a new glory. There are more than 10,000 knights in the Principality, and the families of these knights have also come to the Principality of Kamai.

The territory of the Principality of Cameron has also increased. Although it is a negotiation, it is almost the Principality of Cameron who unilaterally raised the conditions, and the five principalities discussed how to distribute the conditions among the five principalities.

In the end, the Principality of Kamai received three cities each from the Principality of Thunder, the Principality of Raqqa, the Principality of Koror, and the Principality of Larvi, while the initiator of the war, the Principality of Taikos, paid the price of five cities.

These fifteen cities were assigned to the Principality of Camai from the Principality of Thunder, the Principality of Laka, and the Principality of Koror around the Principality of Kamai. As for how to adjust the distribution of these cities among the five principalities, the Principality of Kamai I didn't care about it anymore, anyway, the benefits were already in my hands.

Among the fifteen cities received by the Principality of Cameron, all the nobles in the entire city were expelled due to the previous experience in Inner Jin City, and the received cities are basically cities without nobles.

Originally, such a decision would cause these fifteen cities to become chaotic due to the lack of administrators, but due to the large number of knights and aristocratic families who took refuge in them, these cities quickly completed their administrators.

The kingdom of the Principality of Cameron has expanded a lot at once, and the extra land is enough for the knight families who came to join them to survive, and the Principality of Cameron officially has a huge knight army of 10,000 knights.

The five principalities that lost a lot of land, because of the lack of knights and wizards, their strength suddenly fell from the upper-middle principality to the lower-rate principality.

The Kingdom of St. Ellis did not intervene during this period. The strength shown by the Principality of Cameron has already made this ancient empire feel terrified, and the most passive part of the empire is Abel's real combat power.

In addition to Abel's combat power, he had already killed four senior wizards and added six senior orc priests. At this point, any senior wizard would not dare to directly fight against him.

And the tragic scene in Niyan City made the three empires even more afraid to be enemies with it. As long as they couldn't figure out how he turned Nani Yancheng into a dead place for a day, they would not directly go to war with him.

Four months have passed since the end of the war, and Abel finally finished dealing with the affairs after the war. Because of the addition of fifteen more cities and a large number of territories, the Principality of Kamai has become the largest principality in the entire Holy Continent. .

Except for the three major empires, no principality has a larger territory than the Principality of Kamai, and due to the addition of 10,000 knights, the strength of the Principality of Kamai has become an existence second only to the three empires.

"Your Majesty, King Kenneth of the Principality of Keen has sent an envoy, and he is waiting for your reception outside the palace!" The butler Burbage found Abel who was reading a book, and bowed to report.

"What will the Principality of Keen ask me for?" Abel put down the book and asked strangely.

The intelligence organization of the Principality of Cameron has always been processed and reported by Butler Burbage, so he knows more about what happened in each principality.

"Your Majesty, the Principality of Keene can no longer survive. I heard that their food supply is so low that they don't even have seeds for spring plowing. The Principality of Keene may be the first principality in the Holy Continent to be wiped out due to a decrease in crop production." Uncle Bo Butler Beach bowed and replied.

"You mean, they want to buy food from me?" Abel asked in surprise.

No wonder he was surprised, the relationship between him and the Principality of Keen was not good, the grievances in the past caused him to destroy the wizarding circle of the Principality of Keene, no matter how hard he tried, he shouldn't be found here!

"Your Majesty, have you met the messenger?" Butler Burbage asked again.

"Okay, take the envoy to the main hall and call Earl Brooke and my father to the main hall!" Abel waved his hand and said.

After speaking, he stood up and stretched himself. Recently, his exploration speed in the dark world has slowed down, but the results are still good. He has already explored the real Tal Rasha for more than half, and more importantly, his recent twelfth-level wizard The crystals are filling up again.

This is also the reason for the war, which delayed his cultivation in the dark world for some time, otherwise he would have entered the full state earlier.

Abel came out of the study and went to the cloakroom. With the help of a maid, he changed into a set of formal Chinese clothes.

Although the Principality of Keene has declined, the minimum respect still needs to be given. When Abel, who had put on a Chinese robe, walked into the hall, Earl Bennett and Earl Brooke were already waiting in the hall.

He greeted the two of them, walked to the middle seat and sat down.

At the same time, Butler Burbage brought the envoy of the Principality of Keen to the main hall on time.

"Your Majesty the King, I am Viscount Brege of the Principality of Keene, and I am here to meet you on behalf of King Kenneth!" The envoy of the Principality of Keene, Viscount Brege, bowed to Abel and said respectfully.

Abel was taken aback for a moment, because the attitude shown by Viscount Brege was not what an envoy representing his king should have, and this kind of half-length salute was not in line with the norm.

At this time, Viscount Brege represented King Kenneth of the Duchy of Keene, and it could also be said that this ceremony was performed on behalf of King Kenneth.

Not only Abel was stunned, but even Earl Bennett and Earl Brook beside him were stunned. No one thought that Viscount Bréger would be a nobleman who didn't understand etiquette, let alone Viscount Bréger as an envoy, Simply saying that he holds the title of Viscount, it can be said that he must have inherited family etiquette.

"Viscount Brege, excuse me, please sit down!" Abel bowed slightly and said with a smile.

Since Viscount Brege treated each other with such great courtesy, he also repaid Viscount Brege with honorable etiquette.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Viscount Brege bowed and sat on the chair arranged by Butler Burbage.

"Your Majesty the King, first of all, on behalf of King Kenneth, I would like to congratulate you on successfully defeating the five robbers. Your achievements will be remembered by the world. This is a perfect war!" Viscount Brege began to praise him as soon as he sat down. of that war.

Everyone present could understand his psychology with the Principality of Keen. Among the five principalities, four principalities had invaded the Principality of Keen, so he called them bandits.

"I don't like war, but I've never been afraid of war!" Abel said with a faint smile.

Any achievements that will be remembered by the world are all false. If the Principality of Kamai weakens now, then the content recorded in the history books may not be certain, and the achievements will only be recorded for the strong.

"I am entrusted by King Kenneth, and I would like to make a presumptuous request to you. The Principality of Keen requests to be merged into the Principality of Cameron!" As soon as Viscount Brege said the words, Earl Bennett and Earl Brook couldn't help but ask. In the previous step, the excitement on their faces was beyond words.

Abel was only slightly puzzled. To be honest, if it wasn't for the families related to him, he wouldn't have taken over a principality, because the principality had slowed down his cultivation.

Of course, this slowness is relative. His cultivation speed is as fast as flying in the eyes of any wizard in the Holy Continent.

He couldn't figure out why the Principality of Keen would choose to invest in the Principality of Kamai instead of other options.

"Your Majesty, the Principality of Keen has reached the end of its rope. Our people have no food to feed themselves. Our Principality has no ability to resist foreign invasion. King Kenneth is unable to control this Principality. We are surrounded by bandits. , the only place that can keep our people alive is the Principality of Cameron!" Viscount Bréger said sincerely.

The Principality of Keene has basically become an empty shell, but now the Principality of Larvi, the Principality of Taikos, the Principality of Raqqa and the Principality of Koror around the Principality of Keene have just suffered a major blow from the Principality of Kamai, and their strength has been greatly lost. .

However, the four principalities after the loss of strength are also stronger than the current Principality of Keen, and these four principalities have lost a large number of cities. They need to reduce the loss, and then invade and occupy the cities of the Principality of Keene again to make up for the loss. , is their choice.

It's just that the strength of the four duchies has lost a lot now, and it will take some time to recover, and because of the sudden decline in strength, they have to guard against the aggression of other empire's vassal states, so they don't have the energy to invade the Principality of Keen in a short time of.

"What does King Kenneth want?" Abel didn't show much excitement, he asked in a deep voice.

The Principality of Keen is very large and does not border the Principality of Cameron. Once the Principality of Keen is included in the Principality of Cameron, the land between the two principalities must be opened up.

Of course, whether it is from the Principality of Raqqa or the Principality of Koror to open a permanent road to the Principality of Keene, it is not difficult now.

It's just that Abel needs to know what the requirements of the Principality of Keen are, and King Kenneth will not give him a principality directly if he wants to come.

"King Kenneth has only one condition, which is to ensure that the royal family of the Duke of Keene is treated with the status they deserve in the Principality of Cameron!" Viscount Breger said with a bow.

This request is not high, it can be said that it is too low, but it is precisely this that reflects the current real situation of the Principality of Keen that King Kenneth has no courage to ask for conditions.

"King Kenneth's title of Duke will not change, and his family can permanently designate a city in the Principality of Keene as his family fief!" Abel said after a moment of consideration.

This answer made Viscount Brege very satisfied. It is impossible to have a higher condition than this. There is no two masters in a country. Although King Kenneth has changed from a king to a city lord, he can still be in the Principality of Keene. Picking a city, that's enough preferential treatment!
