Black Iron Crown

The little emperor's body was struggling desperately in mid-air, but the tightly fastened noose restricted all his movements.

"Rebellious officials and thieves! Die badly!"

"I am the real...Emperor!"

After the little emperor's body let out a roar, he remained motionless, hanging on the rope like a dead fish.

"Long live!" As the little emperor died, everyone present cheered earth-shatteringly. The old era, the decadent and brutal rule, finally came to an end.

In all fairness, the little emperor didn't do anything outrageous. On the contrary, he, who was once known as a born emperor, didn't have too many derelictions of duty as an emperor.

He re-recruited the army, used his own strength to overthrow the Earl of Redmara, re-engaged the peasants and the gentry class, and conferred knights to consolidate his rule. He did not rush to turn against the Kingdom of Bookern, but chose to deepen the cooperation between the two parties .

At the same time, they want to unite with the Arshan tribe on the eastern grasslands to fight against Lena. If Lena hadn't used assassination to kill Prince Repewuxun and let him do these things, Na's situation would have become much worse.

Even if the northern border is rich and rich in steel, once the huge national power of the empire is fully exerted by the little emperor, it will not be comparable to the northern border.

It can be said that the little emperor did not do wrong in many things. His only mistake may be that he is the son of Earl Redmara, but this is beyond his control.

What's more, even if he was really the old emperor's own son, for the sake of rights, Leiner would still attack him, just for another excuse.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as right or wrong in this world, winners and losers are just winners and losers. Now that he has failed and Leiner is the final winner, everything he does is wrong.

After executing the little emperor, Leiner did not stay idle, and cleaned his party members with extremely bloody and brutal methods. The next morning, more than one hundred and twenty people were beheaded by long swords in the center of the city.

Blood was sprinkled all over the street, and even the cracks in the stones were filled with bloodstains that could not be washed away, and the stench continued to radiate.

Afterwards, Reiner came to the warehouse of the imperial capital, where there were countless grains and various meats, and the stored materials were almost the same as what Reiner had accumulated over the years.

Now, Leiner can be said to have made a fortune. In addition to these warehouses for storing materials, the warehouses for storing gold and silver coins also fell into Leiner's hands.

Although the little emperor used a large sum of money to recruit troops, the vast land and people of the empire can still bring in a lot of tax revenue. The money was originally spent in various places, such as the salaries of officials and the military pay of the army. .

However, after the defeat of the little emperor and the complete annihilation of the army, the money was no longer needed, and all of it became Leiner's pocket.

There was no controversy at all. Leiner directly took out 30,000 gold coins as a reward, and each soldier could get five silver coins. The thousand gold coins were all distributed to her vassals.

I fought a battle with myself, and there are still many battles to be fought. It is impossible not to give these vassals some benefits.

The soldiers who got the money were grateful to Rainer, and the vassals were also very satisfied with it, and at the same time they were full of confidence in the next war.

Fifteen thousand gold coins were thrown out, which greatly promoted the commercial prosperity of the imperial capital,

After conquering the imperial capital, Leiner divided his army into three groups, taking turns to rest and reorganize, eating, drinking and having fun in the city all day long.

On the other hand, Rainer was busy counting the population files and wealth of the imperial capital, listing all the industries and territories of the imperial family in various places.

The soldiers' vacation brought a carnival to the merchants. They took out the stored food and wine, and various commodities for the soldiers to buy. He took out the coppers from these soldiers.

The prostitutes who hid in panic during the siege of the city before also came out of the alley with great fanfare, and resumed their old business.

All of a sudden, the entire imperial capital became very lively again. The soldiers of the northern border army who were strong and imposing left the barracks. They were also first-class good men. Ordinary soldiers spend the spring night together.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and the soldiers finally returned to the barracks, and resumed training outside the city in batches. The loud drill slogans attracted the attention of many residents.

It's not that they haven't seen the training of the imperial army in the past, but when they saw the training scene of the northern army, they immediately understood why there was such a big gap between the two sides.

Those who wore iron armor for weight-bearing running training, those who wore iron armor and used wooden swords for collective confrontation training, and those who wore iron armor and used spear arrays for training, the entire barracks outside the city was in full swing.

In just a few days, the image of the northern border army has skyrocketed in the hearts of the residents of the imperial capital. They are all strong men with generous hands, and they are all tall and straight. It is said that they are all well-off farmers in the northern border.

Many families in the imperial capital were thinking about these soldiers. Those with daughters always chatted with the soldiers in a sneaky manner, and even some little girls always wandered around the barracks in groups.

The trouble made Earl Leyland very vigilant, and because His Majesty the Emperor prohibited harming the residents of the imperial capital, he was in a dilemma and directly stabbed the matter to Rainer.

Reiner also couldn't laugh or cry about this. Could it be that the girl who worshiped Brother Bing came to this world through time and space?

But speaking of it, in this era, soldiers are indeed a good match for many young girls with spring hearts.

Of course, that refers to the real regular army, not the ** that the lords and lords raise but do not spend money, and only rely on extortion to obtain income.

In the northern border, those who can join the army are the strongest group of people. At the same time, after becoming a member of the northern border army, the military salary is also very generous. It will immediately make soldiers rich.

But unfortunately, there is a lot of arable land in the northern border. The soldiers who followed Leiner in the early days and lived to the present have already had four to five hundred acres of arable land. Even if their whole family went to battle, it would be difficult to cultivate so much. land.

This led to the prosperity of the human trafficking business in the northern border. Before Leiner left the northern border, there were at least 300 human traffickers active in the northern border.

Meanwhile, in the south at Rawlsburg.

In the past, Satley was helpless with the castle in front of him. He gritted his teeth and looked at this not-so-tall castle. His soldiers climbed up the wall more than once, but they still couldn't conquer this small castle. Every time, they were repulsed by the enemy's defenders like waves.

He has wasted a full seven days here now, and he is very worried about the situation in the imperial capital.

In the end, he made a last resort decision.

"Divide troops and surround this castle, let's go!"
