Chapter 205
His Majesty the King had already given an impassioned speech on the stage, but the soldiers who went south from the province of Hanover were still excited about the scene just now.

The royal corps lined up to welcome them, and His Majesty the King himself came from the imperial capital to meet and wait.How many people have enjoyed such high-standard treatment before?
Sure enough, following the right people is really, really important.

Even if they didn't hear the speech on the stage, the soldiers and officers clearly understood that the only one who could receive such a grand treatment from His Majesty the King was their new coach Anthony.

The soldiers from the native province of Hanover only felt that they were honored by Anthony, while the 300 soldiers in the province of Aberdeen felt proud.

At the beginning of the counter-insurgency war, they had already been placed under Princess Yalena's command, and Tang Fengqian, Anthony's subordinate, was in charge of training and commanding.After the end of the war against rebellion, he followed Anthony a long way north to Hannover to make a splash in the north.It can be said that for more than half a year, they have fought side by side with Anthony to meet challenges and battles one after another.

Therefore, they can proudly say that the awards received by Anthony and others have a little bit of their own meager credit.

How did they know about the award?

Do you still need to ask?His Majesty the King, who is busy with everything, left behind so many important military and political affairs, and came here specially to this place where nothing shit happens, is it just to meet with everyone, say hello, and chat about homework?Give me a break.

It is said that at the end of the war against rebellion in Taranto, Anthony was ordered to save the Aberdeen army that was about to be defeated, so that the situation of the empire would not be completely corrupted.Such a great achievement, His Majesty the King has not expressed anything yet!

Sure enough, after some inspiring and morale-boosting words, the main event came immediately.

"... If such a great contribution is not given a matching major reward, wouldn't it be disappointing and frustrating for thousands of heroes who have served the country? Therefore..."

His Majesty the King paused for a moment, as if he was brewing emotions.

"...Confer the honorary title of Marquis to Viscount Anthony, and give him the post of General Dangkou, commanding the First and Second Royal Infantry Regiments, and the Second Royal Cavalry Regiment. Cooperate with the military forces of the provinces to quell all rebel forces in the empire!"

As soon as His Majesty's words fell, the audience fell silent.There were more than 2 people on and off the high platform, as if all of them had been petrified at this moment, their eyes widened and their mouths opened, but they couldn't say a word.

I don't know who reacted first, cheers and applause suddenly sounded, and then the people around were awakened, and the exclamation and applause swept the audience like a tide.

Looking at Anthony, who knelt on one knee in front of His Majesty the King, accepting the award, the generals and soldiers of Hanover were particularly excited.

Although they had already guessed that the rewards Anthony received would definitely not be small for his achievements.But none of them could have guessed before that His Majesty the King's move was actually such a big deal.

Anthony's original title was Viscount, but now he jumped two ranks and was directly promoted to Marquis.Although it is only an honorary marquis, not a real power marquis with a fief equivalent to a title, but it is the first time since the founding of the glorious empire.Even if you go through the history of the countries in Osland several times, you may not find a few precedents.

Although just half a year ago, Anthony already had the experience of being promoted from Lord to Viscount.However, the promotion of low-level titles and high-level titles is not the same, and such a simple comparison must not be made.

Take a look at Earl Lev of Hanover, whose strength and status are close to those of ordinary marquises, and have reached the peak of the earl.In addition, he has won the trust of His Majesty the King, and has been lurking in the province of Hanover for many years, secretly monitoring all potential rebel forces including the Grand Duke.This time, he made great contributions again, and brought down a marquis, leaving a vacancy in the title of marquis in the province of Hanover.

With so many conditions combined, Earl Lev dared to hope to be promoted to the title of Marquis.

One can imagine the difficulty.

And Anthony was promoted to Viscount less than a year ago, with a shallow foundation and no accumulation.He was able to skip the earl level and directly become another new marquis of the empire.His majesty the king's award is so great, it can be seen from this.

However, compared with the position of General Dangkou, what kind of jump is this?

General!That is the Grand Marshal of the Empire, commanding all the troops of the Glorious Empire, who is truly under one man and above ten thousand.

How long has it been since the empire has not established the post of general?Those who are not familiar with the history of the empire may not be able to tell it all at once.But everyone knows that, at least during the reign of His Majesty the current King Beckenbauer, the post of general has always been vacant.

Originally, the Archduke Mattesias of the province of Edinburgh was the most promising person to take up this position.It's a pity that, as a hard-core confidant brought up by His Majesty the King, the Grand Duke has more important tasks.That is to sit in the province of Edinburgh and guard the gateway to the east of the empire.

Thus, Anthony became His Majesty Beckenbauer's first general.

Although due to historical reasons, the royal family's control over the empire has been greatly weakened, and the provinces have changed from affiliation to alliance.Anthony, the Marshal of Soldiers and Horses, can actually control and command only the Royal Corps stationed in the imperial capital.Even the Archduke Mattesias of Edinburgh, who completely obeyed the command of His Majesty the King, acted in "coordination" with Anthony, just like other provinces.

But only those who know the inside story understand that the power of Anthony, the new general of the empire, is absolutely infinitely more terrifying than it appears on the surface.

First of all, the Empire's First and Second Royal Infantry Regiments, and the Second Royal Cavalry Regiment have been placed under his command.In other words, except for a small part of the guardian force, the most elite army in the entire empire is now controlled by Anthony.

Secondly, the province of Hanover is similar to the imperial capital. After leaving behind the necessary defensive force, the Grand Duke of Smova handed over 15000 recruits and veterans to Anthony.

As for the remaining three provinces that remained on the royal side, General John, No. 1 in the Aberdeen Army, admired Anthony sincerely, and even once gave up the position of commander for the boy.Although the battle against the rebellion in Taranto failed, the Grand Duke Edwards did not punish him too much, and he still led the army.

If General John and Anthony are allowed to act in concert, the former will undoubtedly interpret "coordination" as "obedience".

General Muller, the young man in the province of Burgundy, is in the same situation as General John, and he is also convinced of the young man.

Moreover, his father, the Grand Duke Matthaeus and the Grand Duke Matthias of Edinburgh, the two leaders in their respective provinces, have always admired Anthony very much, just like looking at excellent juniors in the family.For all his military operations, the two should and will only actively cooperate.

In this way, the army that Anthony can mobilize and command is not just the royal army directly under the imperial capital.The post of general conferred by His Majesty King Beckenbauer has become in his hands the veritable Grand Marshal of the National Army!

Those with quick brains, think a little deeper: If Anthony has any other thoughts in his mind, with the military power in his hands, then...

Anthony took the heavy seals and documents with both hands, with a wry smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, you have frightened me."

His Majesty King Beckenbauer laughed loudly: "Our imperial hero is so courageous, how could such a small battle scare you?"

"Your Majesty's big handwriting shouldn't be a small battle, right?" Anthony continued to shake his head and smile wryly.

His Majesty the King put away his joking face, and said formally:

"Indeed, I put all my bets on you this time. Sigh, speaking of which, I was reminded and inspired by the Duke of Smolwa. Now the situation in the major provinces of our empire, everyone is I know it well, so there is no need to say more. Hannover Province actually has more choices, but the Grand Duke not only chose us, but also invested in all the troops. His courage and courage are admirable. My Alexander In this national war, the La family has no way out except to fight to the end. Isn’t it better for the Duke of Smolwa to make a decision? Under such circumstances, if I still hesitate and look forward and backward, I can’t blame anyone for my defeat and death. people."

He said sobs and desolation, his brows were furrowed, and there was a look of regret on his face, presumably he remembered the conniving and appeasement attitude towards the Riga Empire in the past.

The imperial capital retains an elite and powerful military force, in fact, to guard against possible changes in the Hannover province.On this point, the Grand Duke Smolwa is also like a beacon in his heart.

Now that he has made a decision, the Grand Duke will naturally try his best to maximize the effect of all available forces in order to win the war.Therefore, he dispatched almost all the troops, just to reassure King Beckenbauer, and at the same time liberate this powerful royal army so that they can play an important role in various battlefields.

Anthony straightened his body and gave a military salute with a snap.

"The final general has the trust of His Majesty and entrusts the fate of the country to him. How can he not do his best to serve the country and share the worries of His Majesty!"

Even if it wasn't for the love of his sons and daughters, as a member of the Brilliant Empire, Anthony would not want to see his homeland being ravaged and invaded by the Riga Empire.Since he has the ability and talent to help the motherland defend against foreign enemies, he will naturally not keep a low profile and keep a low profile.

It was just that when he thought about the love between his son and his daughter, the boy couldn't help but glanced to the side.

King Beckenbauer saw his little move and couldn't help laughing with great joy in his heart.

"The luckiest thing in my life is that I gave birth to a good daughter. And the luckiest thing in Yalena's life may be to meet you. Maybe..."

He paused, and looked meaningfully at the eldest princess, "Maybe I can give you another great reward."

King Beckenbauer's reward was unprecedentedly generous, and Anthony's real power after he became a general was shocking.Even if you want to increase the rewards, it will be icing on the cake at most, and it is absolutely impossible for a "big reward".

However, what His Majesty the King said obviously meant something else.

Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, who had been standing on the sidelines happy and excited for her sweetheart, did not expect that in such a grand and formal occasion, the topic would suddenly go off track and come towards her.I couldn't help stamping my feet, and said coquettishly: "It's up to me. Besides, I am not a commodity, and I can reward someone casually."

"Yes yes yes, my father made a mistake. Then if I give my precious daughter a marriage and recruit 'someone' as a son-in-law, it's okay, right? What do you think, Your Excellency the Great General?" Beckenbauer The king continued joking.

Princess Yalina already had Xiafei's cheeks, rolled her eyes at her father, and said nothing.

The new Great General was speechless, and the wry smile on his face became more intense.

What can he say, what can he dare to say?On the left side of the back of Your Excellency the Great General, there is a petite and fair hand at the moment, pinching a small piece of his flesh, twisting it clockwise through a ninety-degree angle...
