In the Middle Ages, people drew cards to be promoted to nobility. - Chapter 720
c717 The Three Knights
“I don’t like our era. The nobles lived in high towers that symbolized status and status. They might never come to the place where the poor lived. They felt that it was a swamp, as if doing so would make them white and spotless.”
The room was dyed with candlelight, and the shadow of Miss Fallen Deer was reflected on the mosaic brick wall.
“They pointed at the ragged farmers and said, you are free. Then they were roughly driven from the fields to the factories, thinking that they had been generously given their freedom and that people should be grateful to them.”
“The wolf clan is different from you. Everyone wallows in muddy ponds. Even the first generation of family leaders started out on the streets. At first it was ordinary street fighting, and later it was assassinations.”
Chelinina could not imagine the life of the so-called tower nobles as Viviana said.
In the Apennine states under the rule of the wolf clan, the nobles are just another identity of the wolf clan, or their official spokesperson.
“In short, it’s not much better than your place.”
“That’s why it’s a matter of the times. Lothar said that although it won’t be much better here, we have the opportunity to create a country of our own and create it according to our own will.”
“Miss Nia should resonate with you in this regard.”
“I will visit her later, Nina, what exactly is your wolf family?”
Viviana was a little curious: “I think it must be different from our definition of family.”
Hohenzollern is also a big family, but family members don’t interact frequently, and they don’t live together in one or several cities.
Chelinina thought for a moment and said: “Just like a pack of wolves in the wilderness, bound by blood, they unite together for survival, work together to defend against external enemies, and occasionally fall into internal fights, but everything is based on the family Survival and growth are the first goals.”
Her blue-gray ears suddenly trembled, and she quickly pulled up the quilt to cover herself: “Miss Viviana, it’s getting late, I’m going to rest. When you leave, if you meet an adult, tell me that I have already Go to sleep.”
The somewhat surprised Miss Funlu glanced at Miss Wolf Clan’s short hair that was tangled up by the flames, and suddenly smiled and said: “I understand, good night then, Miss Nina.”
“Sorry, that’s so rude.”
Cherinina, who had a hoarse voice, said with some embarrassment.
…
In the end, Lothar was unable to visit Cherinina.
I don’t know when this taciturn assassin lady began to learn to love beauty; maybe she also loved beauty before, but she just didn’t realize it.
Early the next morning.
Looking at the three Knights’ camps rising from the ground on the outskirts of the city, three eye-catching flags are flying above them. The magnificent monastery-style buildings are like three giant fortresses, guarding the hills south of Alexandria in a Zigzag shape.
It was like a group of sergeants who had come for a pilgrimage, and they couldn’t help but look amazed.
Lothar was not worried at all about the knights in this world coming to him for copyright fees.
Because the coat of arms of the Knights Hospitaller was changed from “white cross on black background” to “white cross on red background” in yesterday’s giant ship world a long time ago, and the shape of the cross also changed from an ordinary Latin cross to an eight-pointed cross.
The coat of arms of the Teutonic Knights adds a “black eagle on a gold background” to the original “black cross on a white background”, and four “gold iris” are added to the end of the cross.
Even the long-dead Knights Templar, their coat of arms has changed from the ordinary Latin cross today to an “octagonal cross”. The background color has not changed, it is still a red cross on a white background.
Their members are all meritorious ministers and retainers selected from the Order of Saint Lazarus, and many are even selected from its fighting monks.
All meritorious deeds will be rewarded, but a fully armed chainmail knight will only be considered credited if he kills a Mamluk with the same equipment, while an armed monk with only shabby armor and a contradictory card will only be counted as meritorious. The death of a Saracen infantryman was considered meritorious.
Of course, this credit is only used to adjust military positions and does not count in terms of bounties and land. Otherwise, a knight who brings his own weapons and equipment and a war horse attendant on the battlefield will not get as much as a low-level soldier. On the contrary, Not fair.
The reason why there is such a record of meritorious service tending to the lower-level sergeants is to enable the lower-level sergeants to get more promotion qualifications. Otherwise, they were originally elite knights, and it would be a waste to transfer to system soldiers, and the knights would not be able to personally From a perspective, there is not much interest in changing jobs.
This also caused the cavalry team under Lothar to be derogatoryly called barefoot knights – meaning knights who were converted from infantrymen who once walked barefoot.
Hans stood outside the headquarters of the Teutonic Knights, looking at the familiar gold-backed black eagle flag. The emotions on his face were extremely complicated. Not only the flag, but also the giant military camp and the monastery inside had a Protestant influence. The style churches, armories and other buildings all looked very familiar to him.
In the past, he was just a trainee knight of the Knights. What his mother looked forward to most before she died was that he could retain his identity as a squire when he quit the recruit camp and be able to lead horses and put stirrups for a formal knight.
But now, Lothar has appointed him as the Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights. Although the name has been changed to the Second Company of the Knights of Saint Lazarus, he will still have a high position with a quota of 400 knights in the future. Military position.
He was a little excited, and his eyes subconsciously turned to his master, wanting to say something, but found that Lothar was talking to himself.
“Congratulations to you, the new king of Egustop, the legendary killer, the legendary master of transformation, and now the hottest figure in the Mediterranean.”
Lothar was on the phone with Anna, who was still in Sicily.
He still didn’t know that the “divine war” that took place on the shores of Lake Brulus, as Saladin’s mage advisory group dispersed, had turned into a terrifying storm that spread throughout the extraordinary world around the Mediterranean.
“Did you receive the news so soon? Oh yes, Nisya was there at the time.”
Lothar realized that although Baldwin IV was unable to participate in the battle due to physical reasons, Nysaya was present at the time, but her strength was low, and no one planned to let her contribute from the beginning.
“There is no need for Nesaya to inform me. In fact, one of the people working under the Saracens at that time also belonged to our Levantine Wizards Association.”
Anna explained, and said angrily: “Even without this person, with the feat you have done, even without these, within a month at the latest, it will spread throughout the entire extraordinary world from Ireland to Persia?”
Lothar quickly apologized: “Sorry, I forgot to inform you. You also know that I am really busy during this period.”
“Well, since your side has won the battle, will the Gallic army starting from Provence get involved in our battle?”
Anna was a little worried. Compared with Losa, the progress on her side was too slow. The spellcasters on both sides were afraid of the rat, so the battle had to evolve into a brutal offensive and defensive battle. The castles lined with trees on Sicily could make the empire The army suffered greatly.
No matter how powerful the potion army is, it is not extraordinary, not to mention that the opponent also has the same level of combat power, although it is slightly inferior to him.
“No, Philip plans to take them north to attack Saladin’s remaining forces – he said so himself. I suggest you not to take it lightly.”
“Don’t worry, I still have some brains.”
After being silent for a long time, Anna couldn’t help but sigh with emotion: “I have always known that you are not an ordinary extraordinary person. It can be seen from the destruction of the source of the plague with some legendary characteristics under the ground of Constantinople. Second, I still didn’t expect that after such a short period of time, I didn’t even have the time to study alchemy in seclusion, but you were already able to kill a real legend and master a powerful artifact.”
“Ma’am, you are exaggerating.”
Lothar is very humble. He actually has nothing to be proud of. Most of his strength comes from the help of the system. Without the system, relying on his own ability, he can only be a little baron at most. If he is lucky, he can still master it. He has one or two spells and has taken a few steps on the path of a spellcaster, but his strength is probably far less than that of an intermediate wizard like Nisaya.
“Oh, I really regret it. I should have taken advantage of your lack of strength and kidnapped you back to be my queen’s husband.”
Anna paused and then said: “Although I know it is impossible, this time it is the Queen’s wish. If you are willing, she is willing to let you be the co-emperor of the empire.”
Lothar sighed softly: “Sorry, I appreciate your Majesty’s kindness, but you know, if I wanted to agree, I would have gone to Constantinople and never left again.”
