Strong Journey

Chapter 32 Norman Kingdom [2]

On April 15th, King Tagus I of the Norman Kingdom, the Cabinet of the Kingdom wrote to more than 40 neighboring countries, indicating that it would abandon the original title of duchy and become the Norman Kingdom of the Baltic Sea. National Day is April 10th. As soon as the news came out, the surrounding area was shaken and very frightened. The Kingdom of Esland sent a letter of surrender early. Of course, this matter is very secretive. In the interior of Scandinavia, it is not known that the alliance of the seven kingdoms has collapsed.

The Kingdom of Philland was destroyed, the Kingdom of Rildean survived, and the Kingdom of Esland surrendered. As for the Kingdom of Nordland and the Kingdom of Danland, they live in the cracks and are also very frightened. No one knows who the next target will be. While uniting with each other, the countries ostensibly discharged new envoys and went to the Norman Kingdom to seek peace.

Of course, this peace may be the charity of the Normans.

Tiger, who is already king at this time. House, like the Beast King patrolling his territory, passed by proudly. He was excited and not enough, but it made those envoys deeply feel that the changes of the times were so rapid. In six years, can you go from a folk country bun to such a level?

The Count of Chude Lake, the Lord of Mustave, was very interested. Although the fief at this time had already been small, it did not prevent him from being very excited. The gold coin subsidies he receives every year are amazing. Although the fief is not an inheritance system, but to divide the land to his sons, it also makes the Count of Chude Lake feel that his life is not bad.

At least, he has held a large banquet every day, and he won't feel overstretched for a year.

In addition, a large number of farmers will pay a lot of commission every month, which makes him feel that the boy is rich and has nothing to say, and the heads of the big chambers of commerce are drooling. These merchants worked hard for a year, which was just the count's three-month harvest.

However, this is definitely much more mature than the direct wool consumption policy many years ago. The tax rate fell and the income became higher. Your Excellency couldn't figure out why. In fact, he didn't want to figure out why. At this time, as long as he could make money to support his family, could he still manage that?

"Sir, I got the news from Tamsalu. What he said is true. That's right. His Majesty is the King now. Your status is also the count of the kingdom. For a while, I'm afraid the king's reward order will come again. Hey hey, my lord, you will have more glory then. In those years, when His Majesty the King was depressed, you did not embarrass him, and you also received a whole piece of the skin of the crocodile of Chude Lake. Presumably, His Majesty the King will remember your kindness and reward you more.

The housekeeper beside him was also excited and said flatteringly.

The count rubbed his hand with a smile, thinking that she was almost scared, and the countess almost urged the count to escape. If the wind hadn't turned immediately, I'm afraid there would be no day today.

Although it can't be as arrogant as the king as before, the days are getting more and more comfortable. Specialized people are helping, and occasionally there are three or five hundred people in the army of the kingdom to support the count. The envy and excitement in their eyes of those who come to the banquet make the count big. People are becoming more and more comfortable.

Life to this point is the day.

"Hey hey hey hey... Who said no. Over the years, I have also accumulated a large amount of wealth. Even if I go to the Slavs, I can buy a large area of land and be a farmer for ten and a half years. However, my lord, I have stayed in the Norman Kingdom. Who knows what will happen in the future? Your Majesty is so brave and holy that by the time I die of old age, I'm afraid the kingdom will be expanding.

The count doesn't seem to have any brain, but he still has this little vision. I have to say that the two or two fat meat of the nobles can still be of little use.

After shaking his energy, the Count of Chudehu clapped his hands, rubbed his palms, and said excitedly, "Get a carriage. Let's go. The master is going out to look for it to see if there are any good treasures. On the day of the carnival, he can present the treasures and add a little joy to His Majesty."

"Yes!"

The housekeeper nodded honestly and went out to order with a smile. The countess shook the velvet fan in her hand and said lazily, "Sir, why do we have to give a big gift? Grand Duke... Oh, no, His Majesty is very powerful now. He can only give rewards. If we send it again, isn't it equivalent to no reward?

"Silly woman, what do you know? We are different from other nobles. Look at those Nalvar nobles. Although they are rich and have a lot of gold coins in their hands, why do they look down when they see me? Isn't it because of our relationship with His Majesty? We have also worked hard for His Majesty the King. Besides, when the Kingdom of Estonia was destroyed, we were determined to follow His Majesty the King. Loyalty is absolutely good. The more we give a big gift, the more generously Your Majesty will give us, okay?

The count shook his spirits, shook his chin fatly, and then said excitedly, "When everyone finds that the king has given us more generously than anyone else, won't they come to sss up honestly? At that time, there will definitely be a lot of gifts. Compared with a little tribute at the ceremony, this is nothing at all. I also figured out a little bit about why the people of the Chamber of Commerce make so much money. Sometimes, wow, this investment still depends on the long-term. With that, the count laughed proudly.

"Oh, I really didn't expect that the master was so powerful. He had a long-term vision, which was really good. At this time, we are from the kingdom again. When it comes time to go out to play, it is said that the nobles of the Norman Kingdom should at least be afraid of other people's eyes. Madam is not a fool either.

"Who said no? Look at the people in the Principality of Lithuania who passed by here a few days ago, those little bastards. I was very arrogant at the beginning. Now look, I gave a big gift early in the morning. I'm afraid they have figured it out and want to walk through my back door. Hey hey, His Majesty said that we are greedy for such money, which is to turn a blind eye. As long as we don't force those farmers to die and maintain the status quo, there will be endless glory and wealth. Even if we have more than a dozen sons, according to my ability to hold money, when we die, we will give it to our children and grandchildren. People keep 50 million gold coins, and this little bit can't be spent.

patted a bag of gems on the waist. This was sent by the Lithuanians in the morning. I heard that it was a chamber of commerce. Obviously, now the Norman business is getting bigger and bigger, and everyone's business is not easy to do. I can only go to the Normans to ask for some food. If you can make a little relationship with the Norman merchant fleet and go out of the sea twice, you will get all the capital back.

Nowadays, how many people don't know about Norman merchant ships?

The Portinian Bay generation has lost the confidence of the Scandinavians. It is purely like a bath of the Normans. Nowadays, the reputation of the Norman Kingdom is even louder.

......

Not to mention how Mustave is now. In fact, it is true in the Tartu region, the Narval region, the Latvian region, and the west. The nobles, large and small, have begun the process of loyalty, and they are also very clear that these people, although they are ordinary tapeworms, do not have the maintenance of these people. The system of the whole country becomes unsound, so as long as they are loyal and can create a little value, they can maintain their existence until the day when the country moves towards change again.

The momentum of the Normans, created by Boss Ma, has become almost supreme glory. No one knows to what extent this future will be, but in any case, the Norman Kingdom is indeed established.

More and more teams from the Chamber of Commerce went to the city of Tamsalu. At this time, the city of Tamsalu is known as the central capital of the northwest. The Norman Kingdom, a regional power on the northwest border, has a population of more than 10 million after including the western regions of the Kingdom of Estonia, the Principality of Narval, the Kingdom of Latvia and the Slavic Empire. The size can also compete with real big countries. What's more, now, it has just conquered the Kingdom of Philland, reflecting its extraordinary potential.

The army has also expanded ten legions with a total of 50,000 people. The original strongest Twelfth Legion was more than half of the people who became professional soldiers. Because of the high salaries and welfare benefits of the Norman border guards, the professional soldiers in the whole country were very popular. However, any man who enters the army can attract a large number of girls with a few small contributions, and there is no need to be afraid that he can't marry a woman.

At this time, in the Norman Kingdom, there were 150,000 regular soldiers and 110,000 in the navy. This quantity is a very high proportion. Unlike the large number of national defense forces of the Roma Empire, the superb Norman army is obviously more eager to fight and have the instinct to win.

Therefore, in the friction at the border, there are often magicians against them, but Normans can always take advantage of them. At this time, in the battlefield situation, the shortcomings of magicians have become more and more obvious. Excellent and advanced tactical conditions can completely break the stereotypes and become new tactical laws.

This is why after the Normans established the kingdom, all forces in the Roma Empire, both official and non-governmental, sent envoys or congratulatory groups. The imperial envoy went out again after half a year. However, this time, it is no longer His Royal Highness Prince Ursula, who is fighting with the Slavs, but someone else.
