Chapter 49 The Kingdom of Baruch
In the early winter of the Magnolia calendar year, an ordinary small town in the Territory of Chaos changed owners. However, this did not cause much fluctuation.
In the Territory of Chaos, even the change of ownership of a principality is not a big deal, let alone the change of ownership of such a small town. This kind of thing happens every day.
But soon, the principalities surrounding this city, which was renamed "Baruch City", could no longer laugh.
Although there is little news in the Territory of Chaos, two battles broke out in the O'Brien Empire last year. The dragon-blood warriors Linley and Wharton brothers of the Baruch family defeated Brummer, a direct disciple of the Martial God, and the genius swordsman Oli respectively.
The Via brothers, and finally even the Rock Sword Master were defeated by Lin Lei.
When they all prayed in their hearts that this "Baruch" was not the other "Baruch", the feedback from the spies they sent was very clear.
The owners of this Baruch City are really the Baruch family of dragon-blooded warriors. Their enemies are the famous dragon-blooded warriors in the mainland!
And...the powerful Baruch family will naturally not stop in a small city.
Soon, the Baruch family absorbed the power of this small town, gathered the army, and started the war!
Two armies.
The army along the way was led by "General Owen", and most of the strong men under his command were the strong men that Hogg had rescued from the Holy See of Light and the Holy See of Darkness.
The blood jade crystal dragon accompanied him, but he just didn't take action easily so as not to break the unspoken rules of the Holy Domain strongmen intervening in mortal wars.
The other army is led by Lin Lei's good brother "Reno", who is also part of the "support" of the O'Brien Empire, and the Sanctuary Snow Wolf is in the center.
Two armies swept through the surrounding cities.
In terms of internal affairs, it is the weakest point of the Baruch family.
Lina, the matron, and three young girls, Jenny, Rebecca, and Lina sisters, have become the de facto administrators of the Baruch family.
In order to fill the vacancies in many official management positions, Linna even took the initiative to summon some wise undead and let them assist as adjutants.
It must be said that at least these dead people are very attentive to their work step by step after getting started. And they work 700 hours a day, 24 hours a day, seven days a week without any complaints, and do not need wages or overtime pay.
This also makes the future Baruch Empire have the habit of hiring necromancers as officials - in the future Baruch Empire, necromancy is taught openly.
Of course, that is in the future.
At this stage, although Linna and others do not have much experience, the territory and population they need to manage are not too large at this stage, and Hogg also has a lot of gold coins (obtained from killing the king of Finlay Kingdom)
), the most important thing is that the huge underground veins have potential to be mined.
The most troublesome "money" is not a problem, and the management has gone smoothly. Linna even had the experience of summoning a group of undead and letting them expand Baruch City, which became a strange story and wonder around her.
On the contrary, as the male master and the eldest son, Hogg and Linley disappeared for a long time, and occasionally appeared to transport a lot of magic materials through the Dawson Chamber of Commerce. I don't know what they were doing.
The war went very smoothly.
In early November of the Magnolia calendar year, the expansion of Baruch City was completed, and in mid-November, a large-scale war began.
At the end of November, after a blitz, with Baruch City as the center, Hogg and others had ruled more than eighteen small cities in the surrounding areas.
Moreover, these eighteen small cities surrounded the area governed by a county and city. They were surrounded but not attacked. At the same time, they temporarily reorganized the army and carried out the reform of the national system.
Once this county is captured, according to the rules of the Territory of Chaos, their side will be eligible to call themselves the Principality of Baruch.
After learning the news, Hogg found that Lin Lei was smiling a little while resting.
Later, he learned from Wharton that Linley had an appointment with Delia. Once the Baruch Principality was established, Delia would come from the Magnolia Empire to meet him... The meaning of this was self-evident.<
/p>
Hogg just smiled, but got busy again. The massive magic crystal veins under Baruch City were frantically mined by him, Linley, Wharton, Beibei and two other sacred monsters, and the income
In the space ring.
The magic crystal veins will be a disaster if left in place.
Fortunately, a group of saints joined forces and the excavation progress went smoothly, as did the war.
In the blink of an eye, it’s the first month of the Magnolia calendar year.
It was on the Magnolia Festival of this year that Hogg formally announced the establishment of the Principality of Baruch in Baruch City, and then appointed Linley as the first Grand Duke of the Principality of Baruch.
In Hogg's words, when Delia marries into the Baruch family, it sounds much better to directly become the future grand duchess than to become the young lady, and it is more legitimate to exercise the power on her behalf.
Of course, the Grand Duke Lin Lei does not do any Grand Duke's work, leaving all political affairs to his subordinates.
As long as you are capable and have a strong background, it is not difficult to recruit powerful officials to take charge of the government.
What bothers Hogg more is how to address himself to others.
The emperor's father is called the Supreme Emperor.
What is the name of the Grand Duke’s father? The Grand Duke?
What kind of weird name is this?!
In order to give Hogg a nicer name, the war is still going on, and we strive to upgrade it to the Baruch Kingdom as soon as possible, so that Hogg can change from the Grand Duke to the Grand King.
In March of the Magnolia calendar year, after a series of military reorganizations, the Principality of Baruch organized an elite team of more than 3,000 people with an average strength of six-level warriors.
Such an elite team is much weaker than the ultra-elite troops of the Light Holy See and Dark Holy See consisting of tens of thousands of seventh-level warriors.
But in the principality of the Territory of Chaos, the army that the country cobbled together by squeezing the people was only 100,000 people, and the average quality was very low.
This kind of army was unable to resist an elite army composed of 3,000 level 6 warriors. It was quickly defeated and dispersed. Then it was immediately reorganized - this is the local characteristic of the Chaos Territory.
This time the war lasted for nearly twenty days.
In May of the Magnolia calendar year, the eight principalities on the border of the Forest of Darkness, including the Principality of Baruch, were finally unified and formed a substantial kingdom - the Kingdom of Baruch.
The Kingdom of Baruch has a population of nearly 100 million and occupies nearly a quarter of the Territory of Chaos.
This part of the territory is the poorest, but also has the most sturdy people.
Other wealthy areas in the Territory of Chaos are occupied by the Holy See of Light and the Holy See of Darkness respectively. Since then, the Territory of Chaos has formed a three-strong division.
And on this day, the Kingdom of Baruch announced that its first king, Lin Lei, the greatest genius in the history of the Magnolia Continent, would be getting married to Miss Delia of the Lane family of the Magnolia Empire!
The wedding day was also the day when the Baruch Kingdom was officially established.
