Chapter 624

Blood and fire boiling!

The huge shadow of blue dragon roars and dances over lion heart!

Many soldiers waving flags, swords and shields swarmed into lion heart city, wantonly cutting down the rebels.

The head of a soldier is an important symbol used by the conquering King's army to calculate meritorious deeds. Why does the other side collect so many heads? It is said that the conqueror would use them to build a tower to frighten all the rebels in the Highlands!

The Duke of Wellington did not want to think about anything at this time. He rushed into the family castle which was safe and came to the study.

It used to be the core of his power, but now it's just a scene of panic.

Maids, grooms and cooks were running around, spreading the news of panic. When they ran away, they did not forget to take one or several valuables from their master's house as a reward for their hard service for many years.

The Duke of Wellington, having cut down the two maids in the first place, was so frustrated that he didn't want to do it any more.

He sat on the couch and waited quietly.

Although he could run away, even to cold ice city, or other Wellington fiefdoms, he would not do so.

The Duke of Wellington who lost Lionheart, or the Duke?

The most direct point is that the whole Wellington family has no resistance in front of the conquering king.

Castle and fiefdom represent the source of aristocratic strength. After losing these, I'm afraid that he can only live under the banner of other branch people and give up the title of Duke, which is absolutely intolerable by the proud Duke of Wellington.

"Even if you die, you have to be a duke. If you have the dignity of an aristocrat and noble blood, you won't bleed to death..."

He thought silently. Suddenly, the voice outside changed.

The sounds of surprise and slashing kept coming, and at last they turned into a uniform pace. It seemed that a large number of people poured into the castle and were searching room by room.

With a wry smile, Duke Wellington took up the golden goblet in front of him with trembling hands and drank all the wine.

When the soldiers finally broke through the heavy defense and kicked open the door of the study, all they saw was the stiff body of Saga Wellington.

……

The next day, the riots in Lionheart city gradually subsided, and the Blue Dragon Alliance took control of every corner of the city.

Wu Ming, surrounded by a large number of knights, entered the gate of lion heart city as a conqueror.

After the end of the ancient kingdom, this city established by the lion heart finally ushered in a king!

In the chamber of the great castle, Wu Ming sits on the throne and listens to the report.

"Saga Wellington committed suicide by drinking poison?"

He pondered and ordered that all the valuable prisoners of the Wellington family be brought up.

Soon, a group of well-dressed and panicked red lions came forward. They also had a knighthood, which was the backbone of the Wellington family. But now, surrounded by soldiers on both sides, they trembled and knelt down without scolding: "great conqueror, humble, we are willing to offer our loyalty to you, I hope you can accept it! "

Garcia turned her head and didn't seem to want to see the end of Wellington family hegemony.

"Saga Wellington sent troops to invade Fengying plain several times, and also planned an assassination against me. Such a terrible crime is unforgivable!"

Wu Ming opened his mouth indifferently. His slow and dignified tone made the next group of noble prisoners despair, thinking that they would be dragged out and hanged the next moment.

"However, since Wellington is dead, you can't be responsible for all his sins..."

Wu Ming's next sentence made them curse the Duke of Wellington and praise the king's kindness.

Take a panoramic view of Garcia's disdain and the servile appearance of the aristocrats below, but Wu Ming is not satisfied.

The lions who really fight bravely either die or break through the encirclement. Most of them are soft bones, which is perfectly normal.

Of course, even if a piece of waste and garbage, also has the use value.

"As punishment for your resistance, I deprive the Duke of the Wellington family and demote him to Marquis!"

Wu Ming pondered, and immediately announced his punishment decision: "Shixin city will also be taken back. As my city directly under the central government, the surrounding fiefdoms will be handled the same way!"

Garcia closed her eyes.

Lion heart city and the surrounding vast and fertile land are the most important foundation for the ruling of the Wellington family. Now that they are deprived, the strength of the family will be reduced by more than five times.

"As for the next Marquis of Wellington?"

Wu Ming's eyes swept down, and all the nobles, even Garcia, were shocked.

He did not immediately name the candidate, but said: "although saga Wellington has died, the resistance of the other branches of the Wellington family is still going on. I need you to publicize my kindness to the four sides and accept them for me. Who can finally make the remaining Red Lion submit to me is the new Marquis of Wellington, the guardian of the west, who is canonized by me!"

As soon as this remark came out, almost all the Wellington people below turned red eyes into rabbits.

Viscount basil and others were laughing at it.

Knowing that the Wellington family is deeply rooted in the Highlands, it is not a short time to completely conquer them. Therefore, it is necessary for the red lions to attack each other.

And the rest of the Wellington people can't resist the temptation at all. They can't help but work hard.

"My king, please forgive me. Do you include Arthur in your" you "

Garcia stepped out and asked.

All the lion nobles next to him were unnatural and even glared at him.

Arthur Wellington is the successor of the former Duke of Wellington. Among the aristocrats who pay attention to blood and law, as long as he is alive, no one can deny his right of inheritance. He is a natural choice of patriarch, and of course, he is also the first successor of the Marquis of Wellington.

Maybe as soon as he shows up, he can gain some loyalty that is still resisting the branch.

"Of course!"

Wu Ming looked at Viscount Garcia with a strange light in his eyes: "as long as he swears, surrender to me!"

"I see!"

Garcia saluted again, retreated into the crowd, and didn't know what he was thinking.

"You all go down!"

Next, after dealing with several urgent matters, Wu Ming waved his hand to let the vassals go down.

At this time, the hall was empty, with only a few people, all confidants.

"My master!"

Callitan, the new voodoo witch, curtseys and says in a respectful tone: "We searched the whole castle, but we didn't find any other children of the Duke of Wellington... But I found traces of witchcraft in his study. It seems that there was a sacrifice ceremony."

"It seems that the intelligence is true. Saga sacrificed a lot to the evil god..."

For this kind of misfortune, Wu Ming did not say much. He stood up blandly: "now, let's go and see the wealth he left us!"

The warehouse of the Wellington family is at the bottom of the castle.

Because the Blue Dragon Alliance came too quickly, and because of his confidence in the defense of lion heart city, the Duke of Wellington did not consider the question of transfer at all, and now it was all cheaper for Wu Ming.

"Open up!"

After several passes guarded by his own soldiers, Wu Ming came to the bottom of the castle and looked at the tall doors, as if he had come to the gate of the giant kingdom.

"Yes, sir

Knight Jack came forward with a big key and opened the door.

Click!

The door of the treasure house is made of pure iron. Even with Jack's power, it's hard for one person to open it.

When it completely appeared in front of Wu Ming, people around him were amazed.

golden!

Dazzling and brilliant gold, with a bright luster, piled up in front of them into a hill.

In front of them, it was a hill made of kingderon, on which there were a lot of diamonds, crystals, agates and so on

"At least more than one million jindelong... The value of other handicrafts can't be calculated..."

Wu Ming glanced at it, estimated the approximate figure, and sighed deeply: "the accumulation of a duke and noble for thousands of years is really extraordinary."

A powerful force inheriting thousands of years can naturally accumulate amazing wealth.

"It seems that the establishment of the principality's reserves is still necessary..."

Wu Ming ordered to open other warehouses, and immediately saw a large number of weapons, leather armour, and countless grains piled up in warehouses.

Anyone with such wealth, weapons and food will have ambition. No wonder the Wellington family is so ambitious.

"My king, our glorious Knights have searched every corner of the city, but they have not found any trace of the shadow hand!"

When he got out of the warehouse, the Archbishop came in a hurry and reported a bad news to Wu Ming.

"The base camp of shadow hand is not in Fengying plain or Highland, but in the remaining three areas. It doesn't matter if I can't find it this time. As long as I keep winning, the living space of these mice will continue to shrink. In the end, they will automatically come out to find me."

Wu Ming seems to be very confident.

The dinner was held in the hall of lion heart city. In order to celebrate this victory and appease other surrendering nobles, it is necessary to hold a grand banquet.

Wu Ming was naturally the focus of the banquet, and many aristocrats sent their daughters, sisters, and even wives. The fiery eyes and the feeling of stars holding the moon were enough to make any man intoxicated.

When the dinner was over, the two news reached Wu Ming almost at the same time.
