Angela suddenly hesitated for Wang Xiaoming's request.

Of course, she couldn't say she liked Wang Xiaoming. The two had been in contact with each other for too short and their relationship had not yet been cultivated.

But if you say you hate it, that's not true. There is still some favorability, especially the strong combat power shown by Wang Xiaoming, which is at his current age, which really impressed Angela.

Angela's thoughts were made and nodded red and said: If Mr. Wang, you are willing to stay in our country to help me, your request will not be impossible, but now is not the time to say this.

Now it was Wang Xiaoming's turn to be stunned for a moment. What he said just now was really joking.

This joke is nothing on earth. Friends are just joking with each other, but unexpectedly, Angela actually thought seriously and really agreed.

Wang Xiaoming immediately said: I was reckless about this matter. Now is not the time to talk about this. Let’s talk about it later.

Wang Xiaoming naturally cannot say that he is joking now, that is too inappropriate. What's more, if Angela really agrees, Wang Xiaoming will make a big profit, and he is a beautiful woman and a princess. He will not suffer any loss when he marrys a beautiful princess as his wife.

But now, it is indeed not the time to say this.

Wang Xiaoming immediately changed the subject and said: By the way, let’s talk about the serious business. If I want to become a lord and own the territory, will His Majesty the King agree?

Of course I would agree, it was too simple. Angela said for granted.

Well, this is my request. Wang Xiaoming said.

Angela said: Your request is too simple. Being a lord is not a request, but a reward for you. You can make another request. What should you do if you become a legion commander with your strength? With your strength, you can become a legion commander and command a legion of ten thousand people.

The commander of the legion, Wang Xiaoming, hesitantly asked: There should be many people watching the position of the legion commander, it is not easy to become the legion commander.

Angela said: It's not easy. But you can fight for it, especially recently, our commander of the Horn Legion on 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 Horn Legion.

Let’s talk about the situation of this legion. Wang Xiaoming asked curiously.

OK, the Horn Legion is one of the top ten legions of our Star Light Kingdom. The total number of people in the regiment is 15,000, including 900 officers and 14,000 ordinary soldiers. Although ordinary soldiers have not yet advanced, they are also elite soldiers who have been trained for many years.

In a legion, the real masters are those officers. Ordinary soldiers are stronger than ordinary people, but they still cannot reach the level of entry, and they are not even the first level.

This is also normal. It is definitely not easy for ordinary people to enter the first level. If they can enter the first level, they can at least become a team leader even if they are at the first level.

Although ordinary soldiers are not strong in combat effectiveness, they have a large number of people and have huge advantages in numbers, so in corps battles, officers only play a leading role. The real combat effectiveness still requires relying on these ordinary soldiers.

Even a fourth-level strongman like Wang Xiaoming can only retreat if he faces a legion with an advantage in numbers.

But then again, the best way to deal with masters is to use relative masters and use the human sea tactics of ordinary soldiers to kill masters. It is a very scam, with too many casualties and may not have good results.

If someone can't beat you, don't you know how to run away, but ordinary soldiers will definitely not catch up with someone else's master.

Wang Xiaoming listened carefully to Angela's introduction to the Horn Legion, and after thinking about it, he said: I don't plan to go to the Horn Legion.

Angela was shocked when she heard this and asked in surprise: Why don't you go

Wang Xiaoming shook his head and said: Following your introduction, the horned legion is strong, but the relationship is also complicated. It is not easy to control the power of the legion in my hands, and it takes 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 establish an army in the territory and have many people

Of course, the lord can establish his own army. Each lord can have an army of lords of varying numbers according to the level of his or her title. However, as long as the number of troops is not done too much, no one will care about you. It is just that the construction of the army and the treatment of soldiers are all solved by you.

With your strength and merit, you can at least be named Earl and have a guard of three thousand people.

In reality, lords generally do not raise so many soldiers, because the expenses of soldiers are paid by themselves, and each additional soldier is paid one more. Now is not the time for war, so they are not willing to spend more money.

There are also a lot of three thousand people, and one-third of the legion is in number. Wang Xiaoming's eyes lit up when he heard this. What's more, Wang Xiaoming didn't say anything, and the three thousand people are just the number of people on the surface. As long as he is willing, he can get more soldiers.

Of course, the premise is that he needs so much money.

Wang Xiaoming said: OK, that's what's going on, I want to be a lord.

You're sure Angela had to ask again.

Being a lord has greater freedom and the less constraints you receive. Although the support you receive will be smaller, Wang Xiaoming still likes to be the leader.

Instead of wasting time integrating the horn legion, it is better to open a new legion by yourself and start everything from scratch.

After thinking about it, Wang Xiaoming tried to ask: I want to ask, if I need gold coins, how many gold coins can the kingdom give me?

Angel gave you gold coins for a moment, and said with a wry smile: The finances of our kingdom are not very good. If you ask your father to reward you gold coins, you can only reward you at most 200,000, and there will be no more.

For Wang Xiaoming, 200,000 gold coins are just a drop in the bucket, and it is better to have a terrible territory.

At least you can make money by owning a territory.

Angela expressed helplessness about Wang Xiaoming's choice, but also respected Wang Xiaoming's choice.

The two of them had just discussed something here, and the king's guards came to pass on the message, saying that the king wanted to see Wang Xiaoming.

Angela took Wang Xiaoming to meet the king. The king is a handsome middle-aged man, who is seven points similar to Angela, and he is really worthy of being a father and daughter.

The king seemed very friendly and had no sense of majesty, but this was normal. Wang Xiaoming's strength was there. He was a strong man who could kill the flame demon dragon. He would naturally not treat Wang Xiaoming like ordinary people.

After chatting for a few words, the king asked Wang Xiaoming what he needed. Wang Xiaoming told the truth. He said that he needed a lot of gold coins to do something, and the money was not considered to be given, but was borrowed. As for the amount, it was a bit too large. Wang Xiaoming spoke out with five million gold coins.

For a country, five million gold coins seem to be not much, but when the king heard Wang Xiaoming's request, he immediately smiled bitterly.

Is there a lot of five million gold coins? But I can't say much. Their kingdom really can't bring out five million gold coins.

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

In the past ten years, their Star Kingdom has not been easy.

Especially for kingdoms like them, they are called kingdoms, but in fact, most of the rights of the kingdom are in the hands of nobles of all sizes, taxes, etc. The local nobles first plunder a layer and then go to the king's hands. In this way, the king's taxes are relatively less.

The situations in each kingdom are similar, but the situation in the Star Kingdom is even more complicated and worse.

The king said helplessly: Our kingdom can't afford that much money. Do you have any other needs besides money?

How is it possible? How come the kingdom has no gold coins. I just need to borrow some gold coins, not that I didn’t return it. Wang Xiaoming said with a shocked look on his face.

The king could only smile helplessly again.

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

Is it a territory? This is no problem. The king breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly.

The gold coins are really not available. After all, the number is too large, but the territory is fine. Although there are not many gold coins in their kingdom, the territory is very large.

The king whispered: Take the map.

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

This is a map of animal skins, which can also be said to be the most detailed map in the kingdom. The map marks the detailed situation of all nobles' territories and all cities, villages and towns.

The king asked the servant to put the map flat on the table, then clicked a place on the map, and said: Although our kingdom does not lack territory, there are not many places that are truly suitable for it. Especially over the years, most of the good territories have been occupied by other nobles. I can give you the territory, only here, here and here. These are the three best choices, you can choose them yourself.

Wang Xiaoming glanced at the map, and with just a glance, he fell in love with one of the territory, pointed to the territory on the map and said: How is this territory like

This land is not one of the three territories guided by the king, but the owner's location is not marked on the map, so this place belongs to the ownerless land, and Wang Xiaoming can occupy it.

This place is a wasteland, with no inhabitants, no production, nothing. Not only that, the environment here is harsh, there are strange beasts appearing, and close to the sea, there will be sea tribes attacking it, and it is impossible to establish a territory at all.

If it doesn't work here, you have to change it. Look at how it is here. This territory has a large population, with a population of about 100,000, 75 villages and six small towns. It has various productions. Even if you don't do anything, the annual tax revenue is 100,000 gold coins, which is enough for you to practice and use.

The territory the king mentioned was indeed very good, but Wang Xiaoming shook his head slightly. This territory is suitable for preservation, but not for cultivation, so it is not suitable for Wang Xiaoming here.

Wang Xiaoming still pointed to this territory near the sea and said: Your Majesty the King, I still like this territory. I wonder if I can become the lord here.

You are sure, you want the king of the territory here to ask again.

Yes, I'm very sure. Wang Xiaoming said.

Well, as you wish, the king said.

Angela frowned, but said nothing.

The matter was decided, of course, Wang Xiaoming could not obtain territory immediately. He had to hold a title ceremony three days later, swear allegiance to the king and become a noble in the Starry Kingdom, so that he could obtain territory and become a lord.

Three days later, Wang Xiaoming participated in the enthronement ceremony. Under the witness of many nobles, Wang Xiaoming swore allegiance to the king at the ceremony, and was then canonized by the king as a marquis, officially becoming a marquis nobleman of the Starry Kingdom.

The Marquis is already a very high title, and one step further is the Duke.

This means that Wang Xiaoming is powerful and has made great contributions this time, so he was directly enthroned as the marquis. If it were replaced by the rest of the people, there would definitely be no such treatment.

After becoming a noble, Wang Xiaoming officially acquired territory, became lord, and owned territory.

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

Finally gaining territory, Wang Xiaoming smiled endlessly and was building the construction and planning of the territory in his heart.

It was definitely not easy for him to build his territory. If it weren't for this, the territory would have been taken away long ago, so it was his turn to occupy it.

Although Wang Xiaoming has a lot of ideas about the construction of the territory, he is weak and of course he can't rely on him alone.

At this time, Angela's role was reflected.

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

After a full month of preparation, I spent all the money on Wang Xiaoming, and all the preparations were completed.

At this time, a team of 5,000 people had gathered in Wang Xiaoming's hands, of which 300 were mercenary groups, and more than 4,000 were ordinary people, skilled craftsmen, and hundreds of purchased slaves.

Just for these people, half of the wealth in Wang Xiaoming's hands was used up.

In addition to these men, there were also a large number of supplies, which were transported by 500 carriages. When the entire team set off, it spread several kilometers.

At the front of the team, Wang Xiaoming rode the tall wildebeest and personally led the team to the team.

There was no safety and peace along the way. There were constant bandits and strange beasts along the way. If Wang Xiaoming had not taken the lead in the formation, it would be difficult for the team to advance.
