Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Chapter 457: Division is the mainstream of Sauron

New empires established in wars are often very dynamic, especially compared with the group of old medieval nobles on the continent of Sauron. Many things in the empire that no one cares about can be blown up as legends for a long time among these old nobles. It is better to say that the current empire is experiencing the glorious era that the Sauron nobles talk about their ancestors experiencing.

For example, on the Black Sail, there are many imperial nobles who came to Sauron with the army. Many of these nobles are even the only sons of a certain family. If it were in the continent of Sauron, even the most adventurous family would not let the only son of the family take risks unless they were desperate.

But in the newly born Roll Empire, those families not only threw all their descendants on the ship, but they even had to rely on family power and connections to snatch a spot. And the ones sent over were definitely the most promising children in the family.

After all, it is very difficult for you to gain military merit again on Mu Continent. Except for the Black Sail, you have to fight hard to get a place on the other small boats in the corners. Although this is more out of consideration of interests, the new empire is indeed more radical and adventurous than the nobles on Sauron Continent.

The Laurent family relied on the fact that they had already surrendered during the Northern War. In addition, with Pierre Laurent's good management and Emilie Laurent's active participation in the army, old Pierre finally got two places and sent his two good-for-nothing sons to the Black Sail. He did not ask for any merit from his two sons, but just wanted them to have some military merits so that they could have more amulets in the future and be given a lighter sentence if anything really happened.

After all, Emily's whole heart was on Darcy and the army. Although it seemed a bit like she was flirting with him, Pierre also knew that it was basically impossible to find a son-in-law for Emily now.

Although Pierre was old and had found a new mother for his two sons and was still in good health, he still had to think about the future.

The two sons have always been disliked by old Pierre, but they are actually not stupid. They can only be considered average. However, thanks to the aristocratic education they received since childhood, and Pierre's subsequent words and deeds, the two sons are able to stand on their own after graduating from the Northern College. If nothing unexpected happens, the two sons will be able to run the Laurent family after they separate in the future.

At this time, old Pierre was reading a newspaper, wondering where his two sons should be now. They should have reached the continent of Sauron. If Lord Sean acted quickly, the first battle might have already been fought. I wonder if the two boys have gained any military merit?

Contrary to what old Pierre thought, René and Alain had not yet gained any military merit. The two brothers were just pulled out by Sean from the clerical work in the rear and were responsible for receiving the "Morning Star Apostles" sent by Cartier.

It all started with old Pierre's new wife. She came from a small noble family and didn't have much vision, but she loved Emily and his two "silly" brothers very much. So through special channels, she sent gifts to Myron before departure, hoping that Myron could take care of René and Alain, so that René and Alain could be in the first batch of teams charging and win the first credit.

Of course Myron was very angry. The battle hadn't even been fought yet, but this group of nobles were already planning to divide the credit. Although the advantage was indeed huge, and there was no bloodshed or sacrifice, corruption also occurred from such seemingly trivial matters. You have to know that the Black Sails was essentially still isolated overseas and could not afford to be careless.

So Myron became more and more angry the more he thought about it, and not only did he not accept the gift, he also made the matter clear before attacking Domingo.

"Some people want their sons to fight on the front lines, but I want them to be clerks!"

All the noble sons who wanted to go to the front line through the back door were kicked to the back by Myron to do clerical work.

René Laurent and Alain Laurent were kicked to the back. Of course, they were not really stupid, especially after further studies in the academy, their work ability was far beyond that of ordinary clerks. So it was a waste to keep them in the back, so Sean asked them to accept the Morning Star Apostles sent by Cartier.

The two brothers had no complaints, because under Pierre's repeated education, the two brothers had a clear understanding of their own positioning and dared not do anything outrageous anymore.

“Is this the so-called apostle?”

Alan looked at the skinny people in front of him and turned to ask his eldest brother: "Are these really not refugees?"

"you guessed right."

After René counted the number of people and confirmed that they were correct, he said to his brother, "They are really similar to refugees. Maybe even worse off than refugees."

At this time, the other officials at the scene were also silent. They had heard Sean talk about the so-called Morning Star Apostle. To put it bluntly, it was actually the brain servant of the Lantern Dream. What would the brain servant become in the end? According to the Lantern Dream, if there was no protection device, the brain servant's brain would be burned directly, which was already a good ending. More often, it would become a fool, unable to squeeze out any computing power, and be cruelly thrown away.

Not to mention that according to Ms. Bernice's analysis, the technology of the Dark Night Tribe is quite backward. Not to mention any protective devices, they are even performing human sacrifices, praying to their non-existent cruel gods to allow the rituals to proceed smoothly. The efficiency of the exploitation is low, and it will cause irreversible damage to the human brain.

Looking at the child who was only slightly taller than his knees, René lowered his head to wipe the stains off his face and asked, "Where are you from?"

"Montaras."

The dirty child in front of me, whose gender could not be distinguished, spoke with a vague accent.

"Where is that? Do you know where in Castile?"

"No, I don't know. What is Castile? We only know the Marquis of Montara."

It can be seen that the child is very nervous. He can only use his hands to indicate the location of Montaras to René. Moreover, more and more unfamiliar place names are recited from the child's mouth, and those are places that are not marked on the map.

"Don't you know Castile?"

Not only the children, but many of the Morning Star Apostles who were sent here shook their heads. Some of them really didn't know, and some came from other areas outside Castile. Because they couldn't make it there, they came to the relatively rich Catil to beg for food.

Afterwards, René took Alan to ask these people many questions, and after letting them wash themselves and settle down, he began to prepare the report to Sean.

René discovered a key problem among these Morning Star Apostles: the concept of nation and country on the continent of Sauron was very weak.

Because Mu Continent was unified once by the old empire, and the two major kingdoms both claimed to be the successors of the empire, the people of the two major kingdoms, even in the most remote places, such as the Hidden Mountain Territory, at least have the concept that they are Angevins.

But Solon did not. Only those nobles with vested interests had the concept of Castilian. Most commoners only knew the surnames of their lords. This division was more serious than that of Capet. After all, Capet not only inherited the unified territory of the old empire, but Augustine was also consolidating power. However, Castile was split into seven equal parts under the manipulation of that group of nobles.

You know, both Anjou and Capet have thought about annexing each other to restore the glory of the old empire, and have been working towards this direction. Are there nobles who want to split the country into seven pieces? Even when Lind was about to lead the North to de facto independence, Clan wanted to use the title of governor to make the North nominally belong to Capet, and he dared not even think about splitting it into seven pieces.

And the nobles of Castile did just that. They had no concept of unity at all. Even the other six countries except Catila were still living in peace and recognized each other. Being split into seven pieces did not seem to be a burden to them at all, but a relief.

Of course, if we have to say something, at least when it comes to fighting against the Avars, these ordinary people also have their own ideas. After all, resisting the Avars is the consensus of everyone in the alliance, but that's all.

René finished writing his report. Even though he had asked many businessmen about the situation in Sauron Continent before, it would be better for him to ask the lower-class people in Sauron Continent what the world is like.

Some bloody realities of the Sauron continent were delivered to Sean's desk along with this group of Morning Star Apostles.
