The Origin of Arcane

Chapter 68: Change

  Manyu Army leader capital, Sauron City, Duke’s Castle.

   The entire castle was shrouded in tyrannical shadows, and everyone was in a hurry, with a cautious appearance, lest they cause a murder because of a small mistake.

   "Trash! Idiot! Idiot!"

   "咣咣......咚咚......呛呛......"

"The one who is losing is a veteran who has experienced many battles. He can't even hold a group of wine bags and rice bags. The enemy has not seen his face, and he has lost his soldiers. This is the first time this king has seen such a useless battle. How embarrassed you The king, please decide? Why are you embarrassed to live in this world?"

   "One earl, eight viscounts, and more than thirty barons. If you say nothing, it's gone. Do you think it is worthless lettuce? How much is it? Do you know how much threat this will pose to the king's rule?"

   After summoning the messenger who came back from the front line, all kinds of curses and beatings never stopped. The messenger was also carried out, and only half a breath was left. It is estimated that his body is already cold.

   From the vaguely rumbling of Duke Borg, it can be heard that the army that set out to expedition to the Andis mountain mob had failed a week ago.

  The loss was heavy, at least one earl, eight viscounts and more than thirty barons were lost...

   When I heard this, the waiter and maid passing by couldn't wait to plug her ears, and run as fast as she could.

   There are too many things involved in this piece of information, far exceeding their ability to participate, and a little carelessness, even if they have the sign of the Duke's Mansion hanging on their bodies, it will be impossible to recover.

   In the past, it was like a sieve, just a little turbulent, the Ducal Mansion, which was well-known to passers-by, this time was uncharacteristically turned into an iron bucket, and no news was revealed.

   After only half a day, the whole city of Solo still knew about this, because there were a large number of other nobles and nobles who went to the Bastille. They did not have any sense of secrecy, and the whole city was fried.

   The death of a viscount is usually a major event. In order to fight for the right of inheritance, there are various wrestling from the local area to the capital, power and money transactions, political marriages, and military competitions.

The various tormental battles between brothers, uncles, nephews, and sisters, including fights and duels in the arena, all kinds of methods, emerge in endlessly, and they are all kinds of topics. .

   But there are too many noble nobles who died suddenly this time, so many that they began to shake the Faerun family's rule over the army leader of Manyu.

   As expected, on the third morning, news came that the two brothers of the Hogan family had a duel in order to fight for the right to inherit the baron.

The elder brother was shot down the horse, broke his neck, and died. The younger brother successfully inherited the seat of Baron Hogan. This was the lightest loss, but for the leader of Manyu, he still lost a young regular knight, which is potentially large. knight.

The baron’s inheritance is usually carried out through this kind of duel. After all, most of the property involved is the ownership of a small town or a castle. It is great to add a few manors. Most of their private soldiers were taken away by the previous baron, or they were buried forever. The Bastille, either too late to come back, there is no much noise.

   What is really terrible is the attribution of the earl and the eight viscounts. The scope and power involved are larger, and it affects the lesser half of the Manyu army leader.

   The Duke family, loyal to the Hogan family, has already appeared in military opposition for the succession of the Viscount, and it is still divided into three.

   As Viscount Duke had just succeeded to the throne not long after he had no direct descendants, his uncle, brother and wife all jumped out and declared that they had the first right of inheritance.

None of these three people are good at it, they all have their own forces. They formed a three-legged model in Viscount Duke, and began a long battle for hegemony. They joined forces, provoked siege, various conspiracies, and various tactics. , Appeared endlessly, if it were recorded, it could be written into a micro-version of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is staged here, the Chu-Han contending for hegemony is staged on the other side, and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States are in chaos in the distance. Not only are they fighting in their own territory, but also with other neighbors. Others want to take advantage of the fire to expand the territory of their family that has not moved for many years.

   The entire Manyu army commanded, the flames of war, gunsmoke, and the chaos turned into a pot of gruel. As the supreme ruler, Duke Borg was also overwhelmed. How could he have the energy to clean up the culprit Andis mountain people.

   hurriedly repaired the Bastille, which was almost burnt to white ground, and left a regular legion and nearly 10,000 servants to garrison, and the remaining army withdrew to the territory and quelled the rebellion.

It is true that Duke Borg is the supreme ruler of the army of Manyu, but he is restricted by the enfeoffment system. Unless he receives a clear request, he cannot arbitrarily intervene in the internal affairs of his vassal. Inheritance is the core point. The purpose of entering the Great Proclamation Chapter is to ensure the independence of the vassals themselves.

   A vassal vassal, Duke Borg is even less qualified to intervene.

Let’s put it this way, a knight is loyal to a baron, the baron is loyal to a viscount, and the viscount is directly loyal to the Duke of Borg, but whether the knight or the baron is, there is no need for the Duke of Borg. Allegiance.

   Although it is very convoluted, this is the actual situation of the Man Yu army leader and even the entire Byron Alliance.

   This is the bane planted at the beginning of the establishment of the Byron Alliance. Under the special background at the time, this mode of governance was no problem, and even accelerated the pace of reunification of the entire Asaan continent.

   Over time, various drawbacks of this mode of governance have been exposed. The Byron Alliance says it is an alliance country, but it is actually eight countries.

The Lancelot family only has the nominal ruling power, and the actual ruling power is in the hands of duke families like the Faerun family. It is the grand declaration signed three hundred years ago that maintains this nominal rule. It is very fragile. Turning over, the Lancelot family also finds it difficult to do what they do.

The situation of the leader of Manyu is too special this time, Duke Borg has not cared so much. If they are allowed to fight, the whole leader of Manyu will be turned into a piece of white ground by them, and the people will die by then. What is the use of greater power?

Duke Borg read what later generations called the "Notice to Protect the People" in Solo City, and gave the hereditary nobles a month to choose a new lord, and went to Solo City to swear allegiance to him, otherwise the Faerun family would pay All forces are used to protect the legal rights and life safety of the leaders of the Manyu Army.

   The heirs who have been fighting fiercely for the right of inheritance, if it can be solved because of a small notice and threat, it will not develop to such a degree, basically no one will pay attention to the unilateral notice of Duke Borg.

A month later, the army of the Faerun family was pushed forward all the way, and the world was surprised to find that Duke Borg did not help these families to run for a new lord, but to overthrow all the forces that are inextricable and bring down the entire territory. Take back control of his own hands.

   This stabbing stabbed a hornet's nest. Those lord and nobles who had fought indiscriminately joined together to fight Duke Borg, but they were surprised to find that they had been completely isolated.

   Prior to this, Duke Borg had reached an interest agreement with other nobles, big and small, who had not fallen into the quagmire, to carve up their territory together.

After the fire in the Bastille and the division and war within itself, the power of these noble families has been weakened to the extreme, and now they are facing a joint army of other nobles led by the Manyu army like a jackal. The strength of both parties is not at all. A grade.

In just five months, one real-power hereditary earl, six real-power intern viscounts and 21 hereditary hereditary barons became the past tense of the military leadership of Manyu. Half of the family fief fell into the hands of the Faerun family and half Falling into the hands of other nobles and nobles, the entire Manyu army led a power reshuffle.

   The overall war strength of the Manyu army has declined sharply, but the strength of the Faerun family has increased significantly, and the rule of the Manyu army has reached an unprecedented height.

   But this is definitely not what Duke Borg wants to see. Although he is committed to the centralization of the entire army, he is definitely not in this way.

   The impact of the war is definitely not unilateral, but in all aspects. This has affected the entire military leadership and lasted for nearly a year of turbulence, directly or indirectly causing the death toll to exceed one-twentieth of the Manyu military leadership.

The economic losses are countless, and the number of people in exile ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is as many as one million. Nearly one-third of them flocked to the capital Solo, which caused great pressure here. In just a few months, the number has tripled, and the locals in Lingdu are almost unable to survive. This is also an indirect reason that prompted Duke Borg to be ruthless.

  The other two pillar industries led by Manyu Army-gladiatorial and slavery have been greatly affected.

   The war is in full swing, who is still in the mood to watch the gladiatorial fight?

  The lord and nobles of other military leaders did not dare to come.

Not to mention the slave trade. Although the Manyu Army has two major slave channels, the Odin Prairie is restricted by roads, and is ultimately small, accounting for only one-tenth of the entire slave trade. This is the big head.

   Now that the supply is completely out of stock, even if the price is high, there are not so many new slaves to enter the market, it is useless.

During this period, it was not that no one had the idea of ​​entering the mountain hunter, but once they left the Bastille, more than 90% of these people sank into the sea and never came back. The remaining 10% is usually a loss of soldiers and soldiers, and they can be taken at the beginning. A few slaves came back, but in the end they didn't even see a slave hair.

  According to the surviving slave hunters, the sky has changed in the Andes Mountains now. The ancient Jacob channel is no longer the original ancient channel, and it is full of various hidden traps.

   There are countless Andis mountain hunters who are fascinating among them. Even the elite legions of the Faerun family who are well-equipped can't do much.

If you chase him, you will run away. If you run away from him, you will be chased. It makes you tired. In the process, the number of opponents quickly gathers to a terrible level, and then there is no chance to get out of the mountain. This is the most typical Wolf pack tactics.
