On the fourth day, Roland recruited the fortress and the nobles of all sizes near the fortress into the castle hall.
Although most people knew about this news, he felt it was necessary to emphasize in person that the Western Region had changed a new master.
When he declared that he would return to the border town and handed over the fortress to the eldest son of the Honeysuckle family on behalf of the custody, everyone was immediately talking.
Of course, no one is willing to take the lead in expressing his objection at this time. The duke's head is still hanging high at the city gate, and the news of Tifeko's defeat made speculators unable to use external forces.
Except for the knights of the Honeysuckle family who were redeemed, no other captured knights would accept ransom, and together with those mercenaries, they would be escorted back to the border town.
In Roland's plan, all the mercenaries were sent to mining and labor reform, while the knights were hired as appropriate after examining their repentance attitude. After all, most knights were literate and could be used as enlightenment teachers for popular education.
Of course, they will never allow weapons to be used in their lifetime.
In this way, the power of the Honeysuckle family will stabilize the four major players, and the force in their hands is basically enough to defend the Changge Fortress and his own Earl Corps. Roland thought that as for the undercurrents surging under the water, that was something that Pelo should worry about.
In the past few days, he also took the time to send his personal guards to capture a group of officials who caused the residents of Bianfeng Town to starve to death and freeze to death two years ago, including Finance Minister Ferenault, who will be tried by the people in Bianfeng Town.
The only regret is that the culprit of the attempt to burn food and kill the Greyhound, Earl Hilthimed, died directly on the battlefield without being judged.
Now, the transportation between Changge Fortress and Border Town has been fully restored. In the next week, more than ten sailboats will be transported to Border Town continuously with resources.
Roland guessed that Barov would be very busy next time, and he took over the coins plundered from the duke and placed a large number of immigrants. He didn't know if the temporary wooden shed built by Carl was built.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to return to Bianfeng Town as soon as possible to preside over the upcoming farming career.
After lunch, Roland was planning to take a nap when he welcomed the nobles of all sizes, the castle welcomed a special guest.
The High Priest of the Taylor in the Church of the Long Song Fortress.
Roland suddenly lost all sleepiness.
Unlike the border town, the church has been rooted here for a long time. Not only did it build a church, it also sent a high priest to station it here.
This is also the main reason why the prince decided to return to the border town to develop with peace of mind. Under the long-standing indoctrination and influence of the church, any civilian may become their eyewitness. His plans to participate in the public will be subject to restrictions everywhere, and the risk of witches being discovered will increase exponentially.
Unless the church is uprooted, his reforms will only be difficult to move forward.
It is normal for the church to pay close attention to the change of the fortress lords. Roland was surprised that they could tolerate it until today before sending representatives to deal with them.
However, the identity of the visitor is not simple. The believer who serves as the high priest is already a high-level figure in the church, responsible for supervising one party, and the territory under his jurisdiction is similar to that of a secular duke.
As usual, he met the other party in the hall.
The High Priest Taylor was a middle-aged man wearing a church-style white background and blue robe. He was about forty years old. He dressed and looked very neatly, and his words and demeanor were like a polite nobleman.
If it weren't for sitting on the side of the witch and the royal family, I'm afraid anyone would feel happy when talking to such a person.
The high priest must have a high-quality divine punishment stone. In order to avoid accidents, Roland specifically reminded the Nightingale to stay away from the other party’s position before the meeting.
After Taylor gave his salute, Roland invited him to take his seat and ordered his servants to bring tea.
No matter what you think in your heart, you still have to do your superficial skills well.
Dear Prince, I send my blessings on behalf of the Holy City. Taro said with a smile, you have become the veritable Lord of the Western Region. May the God bless you.
Thank you, Roland replied in a relaxed tone, It seems you don't care at all that I killed Duke Ryan and seized the Song Fortress.
We rarely interfere in secular disputes, and as long as we can make the people live better, we are a wise king.As for which family he was born, or whether he came from the royal family, it is not the focus of the church.In fact, the promotion of the church never depends on identity. I used to be just the son of a farmer, and now I can also serve as a high priest in the church. He smiled and said bluntly, Your Highness, I am afraid that no farmer's son can become a duke, right?
If he launches an uprising to overthrow the royal family, he can still become king.
Roland thought so in his heart, but did not refute it, and changed the topic directly. So are you here today just to send blessings?
Blessings are only part of it, and I also bring cooperation.
cooperate?What to cooperate with?
We can help you in expanding your territory and power.
Wait... Roland frowned, you said just now that the church rarely interferes in secular disputes.
Very little interference does not mean no interference. The high priest still said calmly. Now the battle between your brother Tifeko and the third prince's daughter, Garcia, has caused the people of the southern border to live in vain.I have said that as long as the world lives a peaceful and peaceful life, the church recognizes him as a respectable king.And you are such a person.
Roland was stunned. Is the other party expressing his desire to help him fight for the throne?He asked subconsciously, why?
You led the people of the Border Town to fight against the evil beasts and passed the evil moon safely, which proves your courage and ability.From the large amount of food bought in Liuye Town, you can see that you do not want your people to starve and freeze, which is a manifestation of kindness.It has three noble qualities, and is also the blood of the royal family, which is the reason why we choose you.
Roland didn't believe the other party's reasons at all, but these words at least proved that even when the border town was in an isolated island with heavy snow and mountains blocked, the church was still watching this remote place.
How to help? Send the trial army to fight for me?
We also want to calm the war as soon as possible, but doing so will arouse the disgust of most nobles, so we can only provide assistance from materials. The high priest took out two balls from his arms, one red and one black. This is the drug equivalent to the one made by your Alchemy Shop. The red pills can give your subordinates a powerful force for the time being, and the black pills can increase their tolerance for pain, cold and burning several times.With this drug, your army will be unstoppable.The church only charges the most basic production fee, and he paused, a hardware dragon.As for these two meatballs, they can be used as test items for you to prove that what I said is true.
What are the rewards you requested?Expand the congregation and build churches in every territory?
Of course this is good, but it is our original intention to calm the war.As long as the people are stable, they will naturally fall into God's arms.
Roland received the pill, which sounded magical, but I have no intention of competing for the Crown of Graycastle. Whether it is Tifeco or Cicada, they are my closest bloodline and I don't want to hurt them.
I can understand that the high priest smiled, but sometimes family affection cannot stop the temptation of power, especially when you become a stumbling block on their way to seize power.The pills are just the beginning, and we can help a lot, and if you decide to take that step, you can come to church to find me at any time.Speaking of this, he stood up and bowed down to salute, I have brought the resolution of the church, may the God be with you, Your Highness.
