King’s Kingdom

Chapter 99: move the capital

Ivar's attack is very fierce. The five-point improvement in personal combat ability has given him more powerful strength and speed. After adapting to his huge enhancement, Ivar's combat effectiveness has improved to a higher level, and his personal combat ability is as high as 33 points. It was already the strength of Theodosius before he unlocked the Knights.

Sir Ledwin wasn't as easy to deal with as before. The two of them were only two points apart in their actual combat abilities, and the opponent's attack also caused him a lot of trouble.

The two sides had been fighting for a long time. After Ivar followed Ser Ledwin to block, the old strength was exhausted, and before the new strength was born, he slammed the opponent's chest with his shield, knocking Ser Ledwin back two steps.

Although Sir Ledwin was around 1.9 meters tall, he was considered tall even among the Iron Paladins, but in front of Ivar's height of 2.1 meters, it was still a little unsightly.

Seeing that the opponent was attacked and repelled by himself, Ivar immediately raised his wooden sword and slashed towards Sir Ledwin's left flank.

Just when he was complacent and thought he could defeat the strongest soldier, Sir Ledwin's actions smothered the flame of hope again.

I saw Sir Ladwin endured the pain, erected his two-handed wooden sword on his left side, blocking Ivar's deadly attack, and then thrust his arms outward, and the long sword was immediately blocked.

And Sir Ledwin endured the pain, jumped up, kicked Ivar in the abdomen, and also knocked him back two steps.

Although Sir Ledwin was stronger, Ivar's size gave him a higher weight, more than 20 kilograms heavier than an ordinary iron paladin, so he didn't look embarrassed, just a little stiff.

But Sir Ledwin was waiting for this moment of rigidity. He swung his two-handed sword to match his pace, and his upper body relayed as a whole, swinging the sword to Ivar's left body.

He didn't intend to injure Ivar. This sword can produce a thousand kilograms of force. If it hits an ordinary person, it will undoubtedly kill him. Even if Ivar wears leather armor and is very strong, it cannot be avoided. result of injury.

Therefore, his target was exactly the shield that Ivar had tied to his left hand. He only heard a loud "bang". Ivar was staggered and staggered back several steps, and finally lost his balance and fell to the ground. .

When everyone went up to take a look, the wooden shield tied to his hand had been deformed. One layer of the three layers of vertical and horizontal wood had been broken, and the second layer was also broken. The paint applied on it could no longer look like it was.

The Varangian warriors lifted Ivar up from the ground. At this moment, he didn't seem to have regained his senses, and his expression was a little stunned.

"Are you alright?" A soldier stretched out his hand and shook it, and he nodded as if awake from a dream.

Unfastening the straps on the shield, Ivar covered his left arm and looked at Sir Ledwin with a grin: "You...you are too fierce!"

With his long sword in both hands, Sir Ledwin stood there and smiled without saying a word. He was not someone who likes to show off, and he just smiled and didn't say a word in the face of Ivar's compliments.

"Your Majesty, you are too partial! They can get such a gift from the gods, but we can only get a little shelter from the God of War and his old man. This gap is too big. Can you discuss it with the God of War and give us one too? ?" Ivar turned his left arm, the huge force just now made his entire arm feel pain, although it wouldn't break, it was still very uncomfortable.

"What do you think of as a gift from God? Is this also negotiable?" Theodosius was a bit dumbfounded. Although this guy had converted to the God of War, he didn't seem to have any religious concept in his heart, and he couldn't see any respect for the gods at all.

"Your Majesty, you are the agent of the God of War, and He will naturally take care of you. As long as you speak well, you will definitely be able to let His old man bestow more blessings!" Ivar was a little resentful, he was very angry with this unfair treatment. is dissatisfied.

"The great **** of war is unbelievable. Only after paying loyalty and piety can he get more attention from him. In my opinion, the gift given to you now is enough."

"Sir Ledwin and the others are stronger because they are small in number, and they grew up in the Rhine Kingdom and have been loyal to me and my family for many years, and each of them has the status of a noble, which has been handed down from ancient times. The noble blood of the gods will naturally receive more divine favors!"

Theodosius briefly explained that although Ivar was a little dissatisfied, he was still speechless. He originally asked the question with the idea of ​​giving it a try.

It is naturally better to get more "God's grace", and if you don't get him, you can't say anything.

Now that this is over, Ivar left the training ground with the Varangian warriors to pack up.

After Theodosius proposed the matter of moving the capital, it had been discussed several times in the court. Although most people held objections, it was passed under Theodosius' strong request.

After all, Theodosius' reason is irrefutable. The territory of the Lanyin Kingdom has increased to 650,000 square kilometers. The Lanyin City, which was built in the center of the homeland, used to be located in the center to suppress the Quartet, but now it has not. this advantage.

Being in the bitter cold of the north, the political significance is far greater than the commercial significance, and the commercial tax that can be received in the city every year is pitiful.

On the other hand, Bomo City is different. It is located in the center of the 12 counties in the south and the 7 counties in the north~www.wuxiaspot.com~ can take the responsibility of the heart very well, taking this place as the capital, no matter where emergencies occur, dispatch The army is very convenient.

At the same time, because the distance is shortened, the administrative cost will be greatly reduced accordingly. Even if there is trouble in the twelve southern counties, the royal family can respond quickly and then suppress it.

It can be said that there are many advantages to moving the capital to Bo City. Although this will lead to many northern nobles leaving the administrative center, in the end, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

The morning of May 12, 667 in the Hirkati calendar.

The sunshine in spring is very mild, it will neither burn people's skin nor make people feel hot. It is cool and refreshing.

Outside the city of Lanyin, there are many chariots and horses, and the mule, horse and ox carts form a long line. The resources accumulated by the Lanyin royal family over the years are very huge. The more than 2,000 carriages can only hold one third of the capacity, and the rest is still needed. Shipped twice.

In addition to the carriages of the royal family and ministers, there were also low-level nobles from all over the country, as well as some rich peasants who were willing to go with the royal family.

They brought their family members, servants and guards bought from other places, and brought their family property to join the torrent of migration.

Theodosius had already made a promise that as long as they were willing to follow the king to the new capital, where they could obtain the same amount of land as their hometown.

These people are loyal and loyal, and they are Theodosius' most solid foundation, and they are not comparable to those who are newly brought into the rule around the city of Abo.

In addition, most of the squires in the twelve southern counties were swept away. Although a large amount of land was distributed to the peasants, Theodosius still had more than 10 million mu of cultivated land in his hands.

It is more than enough to distribute to these rich peasants and low-ranking nobles who are willing to follow.
