, this territory has been taken away by others a long time ago, so it is his turn to occupy it.

Although Wang Chao has a lot of ideas for the construction of the territory, he is weak and cannot do it alone.

At this time, Angela's role came into play.

With Angela, the eldest princess, coming forward, many problems were immediately solved.

After a month of preparation for Wang Chao's request, Angela suddenly hesitated.

Naturally, she couldn't say she liked Wang Chao. The time they had been in contact was too short, and their relationship had not yet developed.

But if you say you hate him, that's not the case. You still have some favorable feelings, especially the powerful fighting ability shown by Wang Chao at this age, which really impressed Angela deeply.

Angela's thoughts were racing and she nodded with a red face and said: "If Mr. Wang are willing to stay in our country to help me, your request is not impossible, but now is not the time to talk about this."

Now it was Wang Chao's turn to be stunned for a moment. What he just said was really a joke.

This joke was nothing on earth, it was just a joke among friends, but unexpectedly, Angela actually considered it seriously and actually agreed.

Wang Chao immediately said: "I was reckless in this matter. Now is indeed not the time to talk about this. Let's talk about it later."

Naturally, Wang Chao can't say that he is joking now. It would be too inappropriate. What's more, if Angela really agrees, Wang Chao will make a lot of money. He is a beauty and a princess. He marries a beautiful princess.

As a wife, he won't suffer.

It's just that now is really not the time to talk about this.

Wang Chao immediately changed the subject and said: "By the way, let's get down to business. If I want to become a lord and own a territory, will His Majesty the King agree?"

"Of course I agree, it's too simple." Angela said matter-of-factly.

"Okay, this is my request." Wang Chao said.

Angela said: "Your request is too simple. Becoming a lord is not a request, but a reward for you. You can make another request. What about becoming a legion commander? With your strength, you can become a legion commander.

, commanding an army of ten thousand people.”

"Legion commander?" Wang Chao asked hesitantly: "There should be many people eyeing the position of legion commander. It is not easy to become the legion commander, right?"

Angela said: "It's not easy, but it can be fought for. Especially recently, the commander of our Horns Corps in the northwest frontier is about to retire because he is too old. This is a good opportunity for you to become the commander of the Horns Corps."

"Horn Legion? Tell me about the situation of this legion." Wang Chao asked curiously.

"Okay, the Horn Legion is one of the ten largest legions in our Kingdom of Starlight. The total number of the legion is fifteen thousand, including nine hundred officers and fourteen thousand ordinary soldiers. Although the ordinary soldiers have not yet entered the army,

Although they are of different ranks, they are also elite soldiers who have been trained for many years."

In a legion, the real masters are the officers. Ordinary soldiers are stronger than ordinary people, but they have not reached the level of entry, not even the first level.

This is also normal. It is definitely not easy for ordinary people to enter the first level. If you can enter the first level, you can at least become a squad leader.

Although ordinary soldiers are not strong in combat effectiveness, they have a huge advantage in numbers because of their large numbers. Therefore, in regimental battles, officers only play a leading role. The real combat effectiveness still needs to rely on these ordinary soldiers.

Even a fourth-level powerhouse like Wang Chao can only retreat when faced with a legion that has an advantage in numbers.

But then again, the best way to deal with masters is to use the corresponding masters. Using the human sea tactics of ordinary soldiers to kill masters is a very cheating thing. The casualties are too high, and it is not necessarily

Have good results.

If a master can't beat you, why don't you know how to run away? Ordinary soldiers will never catch up with a master.

Wang Chao listened carefully to Angela's introduction to the Horns Corps, and after thinking about it, he said: "I don't plan to go to the Horns Corps."

Angela was shocked when she heard this and asked in surprise: "Why not go?"

Wang Chao shook his head and said: "From your introduction, the Horns Legion is strong, but the relationship between them is also complicated. It is not easy to get the power of that legion into my hands. It requires a lot of energy.

and time."

"But this is a situation I don't want to face."

"I want to ask you, if I have my own territory, can I build an army in my territory? How many people can I have?"

"Of course lords can build their own army. Each lord can have a lord army of varying numbers according to his or her title. However, as for the number of armies, as long as you don't go too far, no one will care about you.

Yes, it’s just that the construction of the army and the treatment of soldiers are all decided by you."

"With your strength and merit, you can at least be granted the title of earl and have a bodyguard of 3,000 people."

"In reality, the average lord will not raise so many soldiers, because the military expenses are paid by themselves. Every additional soldier will pay an extra amount. Now is not the time for war, so they don't

I would be willing to spend more money.”

"Three thousand people is not a lot, one-third of the legion." Wang Chao's eyes lit up when he heard this. What's more, Wang Chao didn't say a word, and three thousand people was only on the surface.

If you want, you can get more soldiers.

Of course, the premise is that he has that much money.

Wang Chao said: "Okay, it's settled, I want to be a lord."

"Are you sure?" Angela had to ask again.

As a lord, you have greater freedom and less constraints. Although you will receive less support because of it, Wang Chao still likes to be the master of his own country.

Instead of wasting time integrating the Horns Legion, it would be better to start a new one and build a new legion from scratch.

After thinking for a while, Wang Chao tried to ask: "I would like to ask, if I need gold coins, how many gold coins can the kingdom give me?"

"Give you gold coins?" Angela was stunned for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "The finances of our kingdom are not very good. If I ask my father to reward you with gold coins, I can only reward you with 200,000 gold coins at most. No more.

.”

Two hundred thousand gold coins is just a drop in the bucket for Wang Chao, and he might as well acquire territory.

At least having a territory can make money.

Angela expressed her helplessness about Wang Chao's choice, but she also respected Wang Chao's choice.

The two of them had just negotiated a very high title here, and the next step up would be a duke.

This is because Wang Chao is very powerful and has made great contributions this time, so he can be directly canonized as a marquis. If it were others, he would never get such treatment.

After becoming a noble, Wang Chao officially obtained territory, became a lord, and owned territory.

In addition to the territory, the king also rewarded Wang Chao with many treasures, worth about 200,000 gold coins, which surprised Wang Chao greatly.

After finally obtaining the territory, Wang Chao couldn't stop smiling, and he was also constructing the construction and planning of the territory in his heart.

It would definitely not be easy to build up his territory, otherwise

, spent all Wang Chao’s money, and then all preparations were completed.

After considering the matter, the king's guards came to send a message, saying that the king wanted to see Wang Chao.

Angela took Wang Chao to see the king. The king was a middle-aged handsome man, who was 70% similar to Angela. He really was a father and daughter.

The king seemed very friendly and did not have any sense of majesty, but this was normal. Wang Chao's strength was there. He was a strong man who could kill the flame dragon. He would not treat Wang Chao the same as he would treat ordinary people.

After chatting for a while, the king asked Wang Chao what he needed. Wang Chao told the truth, saying that he needed a lot of gold coins to do something. The money was not considered a gift, but a loan. As for

The amount was quite large. Wang Chao said it was five million gold coins.

For a country, five million gold coins seemed not much, but when the king heard Wang Chao's request, he suddenly smiled bitterly.

Is five million gold coins a lot? It's really not much, but to say it's not much, their kingdom really can't afford five million gold coins.

It's not that they can't get it out, but if they take out five million gold coins, it will have an impact on the operation of their kingdom.

In the past ten years or so, their life in the Starlight Kingdom has not been easy.

Especially for a kingdom like theirs, which is said to be a kingdom, in fact, most of the rights of the kingdom are in the hands of the nobles. Taxation and other matters are also collected by the local nobles first, and then transferred to the king's hands. In this way,

Come, the king will have less tax money.

The situation in each kingdom is similar, but the situation in Starlight Kingdom is more complicated and worse.

The king said helplessly: "Our kingdom can't afford that much money. In addition to money, do you have any other needs?"

"How is it possible? How come the kingdom doesn't have gold coins? I just need to borrow some gold coins, and it's not like I won't pay them back." Wang Chao said with a shocked look on his face.

The king could only smile helplessly again.

Wang Chao also said helplessly: "It seems that the kingdom really has no gold coins, so okay, then I need a territory to earn the gold coins I need."

"Is it territory? That's no problem." The king breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly.

It's really hard to get the gold coins, after all, the number is too big, but the territory is no problem. Even though their kingdom doesn't have many gold coins, it has a lot of territories.

The king whispered: "Bring me the map."

The servant next to him immediately went to get a big map.

This is an animal skin map, which can also be said to be the most detailed map in the kingdom. The map has marked the detailed information of all noble territories and all cities, villages and towns.

The king asked his servant to lay the map flat on the table, then clicked on a place on the map and introduced it: "Although our kingdom does not lack territory, there are not many suitable places, especially after so many years.

Most of the good territories have been occupied by other nobles. I can give you territories, but here, here and here are the three best choices. You can choose them yourself."

Wang Chao glanced at the map, and at just one glance, he fell in love with one of the territories. He pointed at the territory on the map and said, "How about this territory?"

This territory is not one of the three territories designated by the king, but the map does not indicate the location of the owner, so this is an unowned land and Wang Chao can occupy it.

"Here? This is a wasteland with no residents, no products, and nothing. Not only that, the environment here is harsh, and there are also strange beasts. It is also close to the sea, and there will be sea tribes invading it. It is impossible to establish a territory at all."
