Yueluo led the expeditionary force of more than 3,000 people. The next day, the military pay was distributed at the school field. Aaron distributed a total of nearly 100,000 gold lion coins as military pay. That payment included the army's fixed salary, departure expenses, and victory bounty.
The largest part is the pension. Aaron asked to pay a large amount of pension for the war dead. Nao Lei stood at the top of the expenditure. The pioneer army of more than 3,000 people has a total of nearly 700 soldiers and adventurers.
If someone dies in battle, the money he receives cannot be denied, and the due compensation must be paid in full.
When the financial controller Arian calculated the pension details and asked Aaron to sign, Aaron couldn't help but sigh that sometimes the evil camp does things more flexibly and conveniently, but there are many excuses and reasons to save pension expenses.
Viscount Gedong signed without hesitation, and large sums of gold and silver were just pulled out of the treasure house, which made the pastor lady feel heartbroken.
There were more than 300 people disabled due to the war. Aaron's choice prevented the non-staff adventurers from paying pensions, and the soldiers of the Shepherd Legion who were not part of the staff were blessed.
The fairy princess Buyel used Isa's healing power to show everyone a miracle - she unleashed a long-prepared super-large sacrificial ceremony, allowing 180 disabled people to regenerate their severed limbs and return to the army in one go.
The miracle of the campus being restored made the soldiers stunned, and the pay that followed made the soldiers who had experienced the hard battle in the blizzard couldn't help but show a look of anticipation on their faces.
To make the scene spectacular, Aaron Dong ordered tens of thousands of gold and silver to be piled directly on the school grounds. Twenty large boxes were lined up gorgeously. Every soldier whose name was read came to collect their pay, gold and silver.
The coins are piled together, and the sight is quite shocking.
Each Shepherd Legion soldier received full military pay without any deductions.
With the real gold, red and silver in their pockets, the faces of the soldiers of the Shepherd Legion were filled with happy smiles, and they felt that following the Viscount really had meat to eat, and they were very protected even if they were disabled!
In the east of the warm sun in the winter moon, Aaron personally paid each soldier, and every soldier who read his name personally took the money bag from the Lord Viscount's lap, feeling that his eyes were a little sour and his chest was burning.
They bowed deeply to Aaron, and before they had time to say anything, they were pushed away by the black eagle guards, because a soldier from Dong was waiting to be paid.
The school grounds were surrounded by citizens, and everyone was extremely enthusiastic, including the adventurers who participated in the war.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a system?
After every soldier had received enough military pay, Aaron announced the second thing.
Canonized knight.
One hundred and seventy-two of Li Yi's soldiers who fought in the Battle of Hurek Forest won the title of knight errant. They will be promoted to the rank of "captain of ten" and enjoy an additional income.
Twenty-six officers of Li Yi were promoted to "Knights of the Kingdom". Starting tomorrow, they will not only join the "Silver Dragon Knights" and become members of the independent knights of Viscount Pavilion East, but they will also receive "knight baptism"
, transferred to the "Silver Dragon Knight", each person will soon receive 30 acres of land as a fixed salary, but Aaron did not entrust the actual land to them, but established the "Silver Dragon Knight National Estate" and established the "Silver Dragon Knight National Estate".
Each knight of the kingdom will be given the corresponding kind of goods and wages as the manor's food god.
The "Baptism of the Silver Dragon Knight" ceremony is actually the transformation ceremony of the Chaos Warriors, and the transformation location is held in the Round Table Hall.
After completing a series of rituals, Aaron focused on his personal gains from that war.
First of all, he obtained a condensing crystal of the godhead from the projection of the Great Word Bearer Primarch Lorgar.
The price paid by the Great Word Bearer Daemon Primarch for his projection in the kingdom was not small! A piece of godhead crystal may not be worth mentioning to a powerful god, but it is already huge for a demigod like the Primarch.
's loss.
Even for gods with powerful divine power, unless they devour or fuse other gods, each fragment of their godhead needs to be accumulated over a hundred years. Through continuous evolution of divine power, the accumulation of divine power condenses into a godhead.
Godhead crystal is an abstract thing, there is no concrete object. As a measurable crystal, Godhead is more like the degree of integration of gods or god-like powers and laws, which represents the height of the god's ability to control the origin of the universe.
Whether they possess godhead or not, is the main difference between divine creatures and divine-like powers. The divine powers of divine creatures come from other divine powers, gifts of divine-like powers. Their power is not essentially their own, but if it can be
By condensing divine power into godhead, divine creatures will take the crucial step of mastering their own power.
Without that projection, the strength of the demigod and demonic primarch Lorgar will permanently decline.
Isn't a divine creature like Aaron capable of easily absorbing the Godhead of the Great Word Bearer? Any divine creature that wants to fuse the Godhead will need dozens or hundreds of years. I'm really worried about whether I can fuse it or not.
Doesn’t it mean he fused with me?
Bu Nao, as the personal choice of the Four Gods, Aaron has no such concerns.
Are the sources of power of both sides the same?
Is it difficult for a regional general agent to merge part of the sales channels and supply resources of another regional agent's distributor?
As long as Aaron is strong enough, he can easily master the power of chaos that other divine creatures take hundreds of years to master.
The power of melting the source of chaos through throwing away polyester weapons and animal husbandry is more important than the power of chaos bloodline.
That’s not the core of Aaron’s deification!
To sum up, at the end of the year 1362 in the Valley Calendar, Viscount Salian was so far away from the palace that he didn’t even have anything to do to arrange his private affairs.
At the same time, a military report reporting victory was sent directly to Susar with the pacification of the Hurek Forest.
…………
A touch of pale gold rises slowly from Susar, the pearl of the Dragon Lake, the capital of Cormyr.
With the arrival of dawn, the Royal Palace of Obeschier began to operate again. The palace guards, purple dragon knights, and queen's blades have three layers of defense, and the layers are tight.
Several luxurious carriages have been parked outside the lion gate of the palace. In front of the carriages are several nobles wearing purple dragon patterns, mink coats on their shoulders, and noble crowns on their heads.
Whispered.
The leader is the Duke of Kaynes-Horlans who helped Aaron twice. We haven't seen each other for two years. The face of Wei Yuanjue has not changed, but his eyes have become much deeper. He is smiling while talking to him.
Other great nobles boasted about "Aaron can he discover the future with his own legs" while introducing their sons to everyone.
Secondly, there is another real Duke Marelli, Duke Gordon Marelli who once temporarily jumped back during the fire of Sousal and chose to side with the princess. After the incident, Duke Lan Yuanhu was killed by Lisser
Ordered to retire, Gordon inherited the position of Duke. Compared to a year ago, Gordon looked a little older. He no longer looked high-spirited, but had become more calm and experienced many vicissitudes. Can he be controlled in the past year?
In his grandfather's court, Gordon often struck hard, and he also complained about problems outside the family. Fortunately, with the support of the princess, he finally settled the external problems.
The third great aristocrat is Ms. Millman-Laure, Countess of Arabelle. Ms. Lauer, who has just given birth, has shed her image of a heroic and strong woman in the past. Her strong and gentle motherhood follows the phoenix head on her head.
The crown showed along her body line. After regaining Arabelle, Ms. Raul had fulfilled her wish. She went to Sousal for vacation next year and gave birth to a daughter for her lover.
"Salian did a great job that time." Duke Kayneth said jokingly with his deep eyes: "He actually swallowed the entire Hurek Forest. The Mingyue Palace summoned them from the east. It should be
Let’s discuss that matter.”
"Whether that guy Aaron does have some skills, he also benefited from the legacy of the previous king. Who in the whole of Cormyr doesn't know whether the previous king conquered the Hurek Forest once, and then lost control due to the goblin war. Aaron said
What he is doing is nothing more than bringing the forest back under control on the basis of the late king." Duke Gordon shook his head, with some fear in his eyes: "The master of the palace actually allowed him to inherit the late king's legacy..."
"It's easy for us to talk. The late king did conquer the forest...how many exploration teams and logging teams entered the forest and disappeared after that?" Ms. Raul interrupted Gordon: "He knew about the Hurek Forest in Arabelle.
It’s haunted every year.”
The three of them were waiting to chat for a few more words, when suddenly there was a sound of feet from behind. They walked quietly together, and the only sound was the cold winter wind blowing through their clothes.
The morning light was faint, the magic lamp was weak, and there were two people, one old and one young. The old man was wearing a purple dragon-patterned robe, while the girl was wearing a pure red winter princess dress and a pure red dragon skin robe.
Those two people are naturally the chief wizard of the Cormyr royal family, the legendary archmage Fangda Hester, and the girl is not the designated heir of the Eastern generation, the eldest sorcerer Charlotte Karadenai.
Seeing Fengerda Heist, Duke Kayneth sighed in his heart, wondering if the old mage's strength was really not as good as before. The former Fengerda Hester's strength was considered to be the strongest among the mages in the legendary field (not as good as in Yi).
The chosen mages of Erminster), but after the Goblin War, the old mage lost strength due to serious injuries. It can be seen from his appearance that his vitality has begun to decline.
However, the archmage found an excellent heir. Karadna's strength has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years. She has become a real eighth-ring spellcaster. Her quirky personality and difficult temper make people more and more unpredictable.
There are rumors that she has the blood of gods flowing outside her body, and there are also rumors that she is the daughter of the stars.
It is worth mentioning that Master Fangdaheist is the lover of Ms. Raul, and their daughter has just been born.
As for the teacher-student scandal between Charlotte Karadna and Aaron Salian, it has been rumored for a long time, and it is not even news.
Several people said hello, stopped chatting, and prepared to meet.
The bell rang, and the Cormyr Kingdom Parliament was officially convened. The foreign ministers and the kingdom's nobles entered the palace one after another.
The regent's daughter, Alice Sel, has also finished dressing up. She is surrounded by purple curtains and has a throne engraved with dragon flames. She has flaming red lips and is full of majesty in the mature and gorgeous scarlet eyes of the princess. She is separated by a layer.
The curtain looked at everyone preparing to take their seats. The princess, who was wearing a set of fantasy snow, red fox and purple dragon royal princess dress, couldn't help but gently support her beautiful red wrists wrapped in pure red lace leggings.
Her face is leaning against the throne as she sleeps, her gorgeous bright golden waist-length hair is pulled back behind her head, her hair is tied up with a golden dragon-shaped hairpin, and then scattered like a waterfall, with a princess braid around her head.
A string of pearls from Longhu, dressed up noble and cool.
The regent's dress had a large slit. She relaxedly put her right leg over her left leg, and her long legs wrapped in black thickened aurora pantyhose were completely exposed, showing a large swath of her legs like stars.
Aurora, a pair of black pointed gold-edged patent leather high heels hung from the end of her long black aurora silk legs, tightly wrapping the regent's beautiful feet in crystal black silk, which were as smooth as mutton fat and jade, from toes to ankles.
As she ordered the curtains to be removed, the proud figure on Lisser's chest swayed slightly with her movements. It was eye-catching even under the cover of the royal dress. Her waist turned slightly, and her temperament had changed from a girl's.
The princess, who transformed into a young woman, signaled that the meeting could begin.
Of course, the content of the meeting does not include Aaron's conquest of Hurek Forest. The purpose of convening the Kingdom Council tomorrow will be discussed. How should Aaron be rewarded? Very well, how to characterize Aaron's conquest? He
Does it count as inheriting the legacy of the late king, or does it count as his own great achievements? Should the kingdom encourage his behavior, or should it warn him that he will not follow suit?
There was always a lot of noise in the east, and the nobles expressed their opinions.
Lisser didn't say anything as she walked on the throne. She glanced around boredly and saw that the red palace was surrounded by cold snowflakes. The loneliness in the palace made the princess feel very sick.
Torture - she had to wait until Midwinter Festival was approaching and the east key of the palace gate could escape.
The Kingdom's Parliament Hall is naturally very large in area. Sixty-four stone pillars support the dragon-shaped dome. Half of the murals at the top are empty, and the other half depicts all the major events from the founding of Cormyr to the present. Among them, Assan IV and
The mural of the ancient red dragon duel has just been completed. The color is very bright and looks magnificent.
There were 300 nobles of Cormyr ranked from the Duke to the lowest baron in terms of title, and more than half of them were present. The royal family's cabinet was collectively in office, and the cabinet composed of Sir Arnold, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom, proved to be somewhat useful.
The chief wizard, Fengerda Heist, stood in a high position to the east of the throne. Charlotte walked next to Fengerda Hester, listening to the debate in the council.
"Shame! It's such a great shame!"
"The Kingdom of the Purple Dragon has invaded the Hurek Forest hundreds of times before, killing tens of thousands of people in battle, consuming half a million gold coins, 300,000 pieces of cloth, 10,000 sets of weapons and equipment, and tens of millions of pounds of food. Initially,
The former king personally led the army to the east and barely pacified the forest. After the death of the previous king, the forest surrendered and rebelled again. If Aaron Salian really succeeded in pacifying the Hurek Forest, wouldn't it mean that his kingdom of Purple Dragon would be destroyed for thousands of years?
The biggest shame ever?”
"Hmph~ Do I know Aaron's true strength? He will only be in his early twenties next year, and he has already made countless great achievements. Is it true that he was the elect of the Red and Silver Virgin, killed the son of tyranny, held a grand ceremony, and single-handedly brought those magics?
The lady elector exalts the prestige of his country, not to mention signing a high-level dragon covenant with the legendary dragon species. Why can't he pacify the forest? Please tell him, he can summon hundreds of Liko dragons with just one covenant, not to mention the forest and the sea of the moon.
I spit it out."
"He thinks he can let Aaron Salian guard the northeastern border of the kingdom. They let him be responsible for his own profits and losses, and he can save an unknown amount of military expenses every year."
"Me! Do I know how much it costs to launch the Dragon Clan Covenant? And, let Salian rule the Northeast? Have I forgotten the rebel dynasty of Arabelle?"
"I heard that he founded the Silver Dragon Knights. Could it be that he doesn't want to be a Purple Dragon Knight and wants to establish another knighthood?"
The Kingdom Council was in chaos and noisy.
Among them, some discussed whether it was reasonable for Aaron to rule the entire Hurek Forest, some discussed whether Aaron used forbidden power, some discussed the issue of Aaron's reward, and some even misunderstood Aaron's excessive military power.
Keli expressed concern.
The Kingdom's Parliament gradually divided into two factions. One faction was led by the Duke of Kayneth, who believed that Aaron's pioneering actions were worthy of encouragement. The other faction was led by the Foreign Cabinet Prime Minister Sir Arnold, who believed that although the fait accompli could not be changed, it should be
From then on, he began to suppress and guard against Aaron's inverse faction.
After the two parties argued for a while, Risser finally coughed a few times.
The Kingdom Council immediately came calmly, and everyone turned their attention to their regent.
The curtain was removed, and a pair of beautiful black silk legs wrapped in the color of the night stars poked out from the east of the throne. The red-soled high heels made a crisp sound when they stepped on the golden brick surface. The grand narrative in the body swayed slightly with the forward movement.
, the regent princess crossed a pair of long black stocking legs, frowned and said: "Conquering the Hurek Forest is not my father's long-cherished wish."
The expressions of the Wei E clan members outside the Kingdom Council changed slightly. Listening to the tone of the regent princess, she seemed to disapprove of Aaron's behavior?
Assan IV was a very sacred person in the hearts of the people of Cormyr. As soon as Lisser mentioned his father, the nobles would no longer shut up.
Time passed for a while, but no one spoke. The princess looked at the people in the parliament with her cold scarlet eyes, feeling dissatisfied. She liked that kind of "aristocratic republic", which was inefficient, slow in decision-making and always had people who were wrong.
.
"Sir Kayneth."
"East of the Palace." Duke Kayneth came out.
"What do I think we should do?" Lisser asked slowly.
"...His Majesty, he feels that Aaron Salian should be rewarded, but also be reminded." Duke Kayneth thought for a while and gave a plan: "How to reward Aaron, please decide by yourself.
How to remind...Dear Master, doesn’t Aaron have two family members in Susar?”
"He proposed to confer the title of Honorary Lord of Cormyr to his uncle Lothair, and promote him to the title of Honorary Steward of the Royal Stables of Sussal, and to grant the title of Honorary Lady to Aaron's aunt Mellie, and to give them generous gifts to reassure them.
Live in the royal capital."
"That's right." Lisser nodded. The regent's noble and proud voice overwhelmed all the noise outside the parliament. Duke Kayneth's thoughts coincided with hers: "Then let's do that. We must let that person
Two of Aaron's relatives sensed the Kingdom's sincerity."
"Mr. Jim, leave that matter to me." Lisser said to one of the ministers in the outer cabinet.
"no."
"As for how to reward Aaron Salian himself, let's discuss it after he goes to Hurek Forest to investigate in person."
The regent princess stood up, her long skirt swaying, and the gold-brick jade surface next to her pair of black stockings had accumulated little warm waves, sliding down the steps.
Mentioning the request to go to the Hurek Forest, there was a flush on Risser's face. There was obvious joy in the princess's scarlet eyes, and she signaled the council to adjourn the meeting with a relaxed expression.
