King of Mercenaries

Chapter 33: Officially becoming a knight

This oath is good. After the army swore allegiance, use this." After the cool, Maximilian I told the Earl of Terri.

"This... not so good..." Count Frederick felt that the oath was too nauseating. Moreover, the phrase "The Emperor's Order, Above All Truths and Laws" will certainly provoke the imperial parliament's gangsters to be unhappy. You know, the gang of imperial parliament is the spokesperson of the so-called "empire law." Above the law, it is not to put the Imperial Parliament in the eyes. However, since the emperor is happy, it is so embarrassing. Anyway, the relationship between the emperor and the imperial council is not good. Moreover, the salary of the emperor's army is not the burden of the Imperial Parliament. Only when the war is expanded will the Imperial Parliament increase the war tax.

With the emperor happy, Marin's application was simple and passed directly. Although many people are not fair, what can you do? Go against the emperor?

Then, with a happy mood, the emperor summoned the so-called "young talent" Marin...

Marin really was also a acting school girl meeting her idol. After searching for it, when he boarded the high platform, Marin immediately changed his face. Then, Marin's pilgrimage, full of admiration, half a squat in front of Maximilian I, to kiss the emperor's boots - this is the courtesy of the nobles who met the pope. Of course, the knight's ceremonial ceremonies sometimes appear in this scene, indicating the knight's surrender and obedience to the lord. Maximilian I was a little bit stunned, and the kiss was the highest courtesy of Christ in the world. This little knight wearing a plate armor is so religious? And the side of Hohenzollern, Frederick, secretly pouted - this is really shameless, super shameless, more shameless than this old man.

"Get up, my subjects, what is your name?"

"Marker's trainee knight Marin von Hoffman pays tribute to His Majesty the Emperor!" After Marlin stood up, he immediately took his right hand and performed an ancient Roman military ceremony.

"this is..."

"This is the military ritual of ancient Rome. Since we are the sacred Roman Empire, it is a good fit to carry out this military service." Marin said loudly.

In fact, the Holy Roman Empire is neither sacred nor Roman. However, the title of "Roman Emperor" was not self-styled by the Holy Roman Empire, but was given by the Pope of the year. Therefore, from the legal point of view, it is not wrong.

"Well, it's good... yes, young knight, are you still a trainee?" The emperor reacted, such a good talent, is it a trainee knight? Is Count Earl's eyes good?

"This is the case. Your Majesty, the 17-year-old, has not had time to go to the Count of Mark to be sealed. I heard that the Emperor's troops recruited troops, and the subject hurriedly rushed to Vienna. Later, many people in Vienna did not catch up. So I recruited troops, and simply converted 100 people with more than a month of training..." Marin pretended to be embarrassed.

"It's only 17 years old, no wonder it's not officially sealed." Maximilian I believed that Marin was the eldest son of the Hoffman family. In fact, Marin was the second son, and there was no qualification to see Earl Mark.

"What? You said that you have only trained for 100 people under your hand for more than a month?" Frederick, the Earl of Hohenzollern, was screaming.

Originally, Frederick thought that this team was brought from the family by Marin. It should be trained for a long time, otherwise the action would not be so uniform. Unexpectedly, it was only after training for more than a month. Therefore, he was somewhat shocked by Marin's training ability.

"More than a month?" Maximilian I was also a little shocked. He is an emperor who does understand military affairs.

Know the difficulty of training. Just let the low-lying soldiers get rid of the left and right, it is estimated that there will be a month, let alone other training. Only the noble children of higher quality are more likely to train. And the aristocratic children, in this year is impossible to be a normal infantry. Therefore, Marin's ability to train is suddenly more prominent.

"This is the case. Your Majesty, I who was born in the knight family, trained martial arts from a young age and learned certain military knowledge. Moreover, I also studied with a great sage who traveled the world. He taught the methods of training."

"Oh I got it."

"So, how did you make these lowly civilians so obedient in just one month?" Earl Hohenzollern was curious. As a great aristocrat, Frederick II, the Earl of Hohenzollern, looked down on the civilians who were illiterate. He felt that it was quite difficult for those stupid civilians to figure out the various instructions.

However, Marin did not want to tell the secret to the Earl of Hohenzollern, but that is his own housekeeping skills. Therefore, he can only obfuscate:

"It's nothing more than a whip and a stick. If you don't complete the prescribed action, don't give food to him!" Marlin began to mislead the count. But Frederick really believed. Because the aristocrats now train civilian troops, it is indeed doing this. In his view, Marin is nothing more than a means of a little more, so it works faster. Or, it happens that the people recruited by Marin are more talented.

And Emperor Maximilian I suddenly became full of smile:

"Knight Marin, you said that you are still a trainee knight, then, how is your martial arts? Are you willing to die for we?"

Marin glanced, but quickly reacted:

"Your Majesty, I have practiced martial arts since childhood. At present, in addition to height and strength, it needs to grow a little more. Others have no problem. The emperor's will is Marin's pursuit!" After that, a Roman military ritual was formed again.

"Very good, so sad. Marin Knight, we are now officially enshrining you as the royal knight, commanding the infantry, are you willing?" Maximilian I said seriously.

The reason why Maximilian I was so easy to enshrine Marin was that he had his deliberation, not a casual reward. As a result, he did appreciate fans like Marin. Secondly, it is also done for other aristocrats in the empire - see, for the sake of him, he will not treat him badly... This is somewhat similar to the show of "buy the horse bones", put it into modern times, it is estimated that many people will see through, But in this era, it is still very effective. And Marin, it became the "horse bone" that was bought by the thousand gold. Moreover, Marin's pledge of flattering is very much in line with the taste of Maximilian I. Although Maximilian I was strong, he was very good. This oath was simply tailored for Maximilian I, and the Emperor was extremely satisfied and planned to promote it. Marlin is the official knight, except for the "golden horses to buy horse bones" to others to see, but also the award of Marin to make such a "good" oath.

Marin made a stunned spirit. After reacting, he quickly bent down and thanked him. At the same time, he gave the flag bearer Garland a look. Garland was not stupid, and he quickly sent Marin's rectangular knight flag. The banner has a dovetail split at the end, which means it is a trainee knight. The emperor's attendant also intentionally took out the scissors and cut off the split of the Marin Knight's flag, representing Marin officially upgrading from the trainee knight to the official knight. Then, according to the routine, Marin swears allegiance to the emperor. The emperor announced the grant of Marin's cloak, armor and spurs. Of course, there is no scene. Afterwards, Marin will follow the palace to go to the set.

At this time, Marin was also a great surprise. This is not, still not fighting, just by wooing the emperor, it was sealed as a knight. If you have a few battles... Marin is afraid to think about it...

"It's no wonder that everyone in the future is so fond of taking the lead and flattering. If you don't have to do anything, you can get a reward and promotion..." Marin realized.

And he looked at the emperor's gaze, and it was even more blazing. The emperor was a cow. With a word, he specially adjusted rank from trainee to official knight. You must know that the whole German, the trainee knight is at least tens of thousands or even more than 100,000. But in the end, there are very few who can be official knight. Marlin, on martial arts, can only be regarded as normal, and it is almost impossible to pass the normal knight competition and test. However, relying on a shocking and flattering show, he succeeded in crossing the gap that many people could not overcome in their lifetime. Marin felt that he was not watching the emperor, but was watching a knight's book. The emperor, who feels good about himself and has a strong vanity, automatically understands Maring's radiant eyes as his admiration for himself, like the sinuous Danube water, which is endless.
