Edge's calm words thundered in Bud's ears, and Bud's spirit stirred: "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you mean. ”Aitch looked at Bard with a shocked look on his face, "No, you know what I mean.I've taken this place, but the people around you see me with only fear in their eyes.I don't want to spend too much time consolidating here, there's going to be a lot going on in this neighborhood, there's no time to wait, I'm going to stabilize the area quickly.So, I need the right person to be the commander here.In terms of blood physicality, you have a portion of the orthodox inheritance to the valley region.In terms of prestige, it's clear that you've got the convincing majority of the town's inhabitants.In terms of ability, you can stand up for everyone, and your ability should not be bad.How, I occupy this river town, you swear allegiance to me, I make it your fief, how about making you a baron?
It will not be difficult to make a meritorious contribution to me in the future and restore the glory of your ancestors. ”Bard's brain raced to speed.It is impossible to say that Bard did not have a mind in this regard.Since the fall of Gushan and the loss of his ancestors' dominion over the region, his family has been having a hard time.Now he has been bullied and oppressed.For Bard, this was clearly a rare opportunity.Bard was a man of integrity and courage, who had good relations with the townspeople, as well as hunting and smuggling.He has a deep understanding of human relationships, and it is clear that Aitch wants nothing more than a puppet.But even as a puppet, Bard can't pass up this opportunity.As the lord of this town, Bard has the opportunity to make a contribution and have a say in the interests of the town, albeit with little force.Both public and private, Bard has to accept this opportunity.Bard knelt down on one knee in front of Aitch: "I, Bud, am willing to be loyal to His Majesty Aitch, for generations, and never betray." ”Aitch looked at the bold man kneeling in front of him (and Dracula is an actor, but the various worlds are closer to the original book and have nothing to do with the appearance in the movie), drew a long sword and placed it flat on Bard's shoulder: "I, Aitch Downton, Emperor of the Qahnaarin Empire, accept your allegiance."
And he named you the Baron of River Valley, and the fief was the town of Long Lake.Arise, my baron. ”Bard stood up gratefully.Aiqi left a lot of space, the entire river valley area was a state back then, and there was no problem in making a grand duke or something.But how can there be such a white body to join the fief of the Grand Duke, as a leader, he did not do this.Aitch only limited his fief to Long Lake, gave the title to a baron, and gave Bard a lot of room to work hard.Of course, even if Bard made a lot of contributions in the future, even if it was his fiefdom in this area, I am afraid that he would not be able to grasp the actual control of this area.In the future, this neighborhood will be a transit point for trade with dwarves and elves, a prosperous place, a large tax collector, and it is impossible to completely hand it over to Bard without roots.If you look at it, as soon as Vokenda joined, it enjoyed a high degree of autonomy and several votes in the Imperial Diet.Tony's company has crossed several planes, and has many collaborations with Winterhold.Obviously, this treatment is different, but unfortunately it is also part of politics, and Bard also chooses to be loyal to Aitch knowing that this may be the case, and this is his only chance.Aitch patted Bud on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Do a good job, I need some spokespeople here in Middle-earth, and if you do well, you have a good chance."
Now, as my sub-baron, you need to quickly integrate the town of Long Lake.Settle down quickly in the town of Long Lake, and make them recognize our rule and your lordship.It's also an opportunity to test your abilities. ”Bud nodded and took on the task.Aiqi continued: "Also, Changhu Town may face two military disasters in the future, and you need to ask the people of Changhu Town to prepare.You don't need to let them go directly to the war, just know how to hide in a safe place.If you can organize some people to fight, it depends on your ability. ”Although Bud was puzzled by the "two military disasters" proposed by Edge, he wisely did not ask much, and Aitch did not tell him, indicating that he did not need to know, and Bud was ordered to prepare to do something.Aitch thought of one more thing: "By the way, bring me the black arrow you hid on the beam."
I'm going to compare and build a batch. ”Bard was startled, Aitch not only knew that he still had a black arrow left by his ancestor, but also knew where to hide.Bud quickly made up his mind again in his heart to do a good job for Edge, and then went down to work according to Edge's arrangement as much as he could.Aitch looked left and right, and said to the guards beside him, "Wait a minute, Bard will bring the black arrows, and tell Charles to quickly make a batch of Valyrian steel."
Crafting a few more bed crossbows must be completed before the Dulin Day here. ”The guards commanded.Aitch took out two more stamped letterheads: "Through the dimensional gate, send out these two invitations, and wait for a reply."
Then the dwarves came, along with Bilbo, Legolas, and Toriel. ”The soldier was ordered to retreat, leaving Aitch in a chair in the town hall and waiting for the men to be seen.
