Ambition Lord

Chapter 411 The Day of Establishment
"Hmph!" Seeing Bahamut's suppressed smile, Alan snorted coldly with a livid face.

At this time, he was extremely regretful in his heart. He thought it was some treasure, but he didn't expect it to be...

"Let's go! Go back!" Allen said without looking back.

"Then, Master?" Bahamut pointed to the hill below and asked.

"What? If you want it, move it back! Put it in the nest and watch it every day." Alan turned his head and said lightly.

"No! No!" Bahamut shook his head wildly. It's not like it doesn't have it, so why would it miss others!

Sitting on Bahamut's back without talking all the way, Alan, who was extremely uncomfortable in his heart, finally returned to Twilight Castle a few days later.

"Lord Earl!" Buttonbad bowed slightly.

"Hmm!" Allen nodded, and walked straight into the castle. The first thing Allen did when he returned to the castle was to take a shower. From the inside out, that thing really disgusted him.

After washing up, Alan came to the study because he was not very interested in having dinner, and dealt with the affairs that had accumulated in the past few days.

The current base of the Nine Offices has penetrated into all parts of the Principality of Kane, and the military territory has also been greatly improved. Since the Principality of Kane has been completely controlled by Huoyanmai, especially the war horses of the four major knights under the jurisdiction of the territory. All have been prepared, and the time is ripe for the establishment of the principality.

After several days of consideration and deliberation, Allen planned to set the date of founding of the country on August [-]th, and the capital in Twilight City.

Now there are 20 days left until August [-]th, and this period of time is used for preparations.

Not long after Allen set the date, the Etiquette Office began to distribute the invitations that had already been made to the nobles of the Viscount and above in the surrounding three countries.

The Duchy of Linton and the Duchy of Bru are also among them. After all, although the two sides are hostile, Alan's face project is still to be done. Even if the nobles of the two countries do not come, Alan cannot be blamed. After all, he has handed over the invitation.

The large map was hung high by Allen and pasted on the wall of the study. What was drawn on the map was the detailed map of the entire Principality of Kane.

The Duchy of Cain is represented on the map as a rectangle with distorted edges, except for a slight depression in the line on the right.

The map of the Duchy of Kane is divided into five parts by lines. The area of ​​the Earl of Reagan accounts for about one-eighth of the area of ​​the Duchy of Kane. The area of ​​the Earl of Andre is about the same as that of the Earl of Reagan, and it is the area of ​​the Marquis of Lane. It is about the same size as the combined area of ​​the two counties.

Above the three territories is the largest Kane Territory, which is about three Earl Andres, which is almost three-eighths of the Duchy of Kane. The northeast corner of the Kane Territory is the Earl of Alva, and the Earl of Alva Although the area is smaller than that of Earl Andre, it is not much smaller.

In this way, if you look at this map from a close distance, you can find the area characteristics of the Earldom, Marquis and Grand Dukedom of the Duchy of Kane. Two, the dukedom is three-eighths.

And there is a slanted line from northeast to southwest on the Kane Territory. While cutting the Kane Territory in half, it also cuts off a small part of the Earl of Andre and the Earl of Alva, and the three territories are added. Together, they are about the size of two earldoms, and this territory is the land that will be divided out after the founding of the country.

As for the remaining nearly six earldoms, they will become the direct jurisdiction of the Duchy of Allen in the future.

In fact, dividing an area the size of two earldoms may not be complete this time. Except for Antonio, who will be earl, there seem to be only a few viscounts, and there are only a dozen barons. , can't occupy the land of the remaining earldom at all.

The excess land will not be taken back by Alan, but will be entrusted to the Nine Offices. These extra land is the motivation of Alan's men who have not yet been knighted, and it also tells them that as long as they have enough meritorious service, they still have a chance knighted.

In fact, Allen had thought about using Heyland Island as a sub-fief. After all, the area of ​​Heyland Island is not small, larger than the two Earls of Reagan combined, but he gave up after thinking about it, because the area of ​​Heyland Island The resources are too rich, and Allen doesn't want to hand over this piece of fat.

Leaving aside those element spar veins, Allen would never hand over Heilan Island to the real blue gold mine vein, and this Heilan Island occupies an important place in Allen's future ocean development plan. The effect is also not to be easily touched by people.

Although Allen was somewhat conflicted about enfeoffing nobles after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he did not give up on this decision. After all, the mainland has practiced the aristocratic system for thousands of years, and the aristocratic enfeoffment system has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Death, lust for blood and killing, isn't it all for the sake of gaining a future?

What did they join the army for?Easy to understand, isn't it just to make contributions and become a nobleman?

If Allen hastily banned this enfeoffment system and implemented the familiar centralization system, let alone whether it would be unacceptable, once this system came out, the power of the nobles plummeted, and the dream of nobles for many years suddenly collapsed. Originally, he worked for Allen His subordinates will not be so dedicated.

Without the support of his subordinates, people's hearts are scattered, what else can Alan use to establish a principality?
So after struggling for a long time, Allen still decided to follow the long-standing system in the mainland and continue to implement enfeoffment, but he did not completely copy it. The control of the country is very small, it is simply a "country · China · country", which is not conducive to the rule of the Principality.

So for the enfeoffment system, Allen made some changes. Although these changes would not disintegrate the rule of the nobles and destroy the core power of the nobles, they also greatly strengthened Allen's control over the vassals below.

Moreover, Allen does not plan to divide his direct-controlled territory in the future, so with such a huge direct-controlled territory, there is no need to worry about the civil strife in the principality causing too much impact.

In fact, Allen has in-depth considerations about the enfeoffed territories. Regarding the future development route of the Principality, Allen has already made up his mind, that is, to explore and develop the ocean, supplemented by business and trade with countries on the mainland. As for the Principality As long as the agriculture is self-sufficient, Allen doesn't expect it to make money.

To develop the sea, the land in the territorial waters of the Principality of Kane cannot be entrusted. To develop trade, in addition to sea trade, land trade cannot be separated from the Principality of Sid. Naturally, the Earl of Alva, which borders the Principality of Sid, cannot be completely entrusted.

So after thinking about it, Allen still decided to divide up the territory in the northeast corner of the Principality of Kane. This territory borders the Principality of Linton on one side and faces the Black Dragon Forest on the other, which is not an important place.
