"This is not a bad thing. At least this time we met, we got to know him better, which is better than turning against him at a critical moment." Sean was very open-minded.

Life will be unsatisfactory nine times out of ten.

Even if you have a large amount of basic information, the plan you make may be full of loopholes, let alone a plan that is beyond the reach of a large number of manpower.

"Philip is not reliable, so let's start supporting Angie Beina." Sophia Liya was not the kind of person who was sad and sad, so she quickly came up with the second plan.

"Are you prepared to make me the first female Grand Duchess of Manyu?" Angie Beina was shocked, and a flush appeared on her crystal flower-like face.

"What a beautiful idea." Sean and Sophia Liya said in unison.

"Don't be so ruthless, I think this matter can be considered." Angie Beina also knew that this possibility was very small, and the resistance was not that great, but she still said in a half-joking tone.

"Stop daydreaming. You know, it is impossible for me to send troops to assist you. Even if I send troops, I can only help Phillip, otherwise other families will intervene, and neutrality is your biggest protection. Once you put out

If you compete with them for the Grand Duke's position, they may directly join forces to eliminate you."

The Princess Regent said helplessly that even if she is the leader of the Byron League, she must follow the ancient rules of the game, otherwise she will be ostracized by the collective.

In addition, she is also full of concerns about the witch conclave, but this is not suitable to be said in person.

Angie Beina certainly knows that what Sophia Liya said is true. With the power in her own hands, let alone clearing out the other two parties at the same time, it is very difficult to defeat one party alone. It requires the intervention of external forces. The calculations are repeated.

, the only one who could help her in this regard was the Yongye Group Army, who looked at Sean pitifully, like an abandoned little kitten.

"Don't look at me. We will start the plan to attack the Swamp of Despair next year. Our own troops are stretched thin, let alone support you." Sean spread his hands and looked helpless.

If possible, Sean would of course be willing to watch Angie Beina, who had a good relationship with them, take the position, but they were indeed very busy and did not have that much energy to fight on two fronts.

Sean is not willing to fall into this war swamp easily. The Manyu people and the Andis people have been entangled for so many years, and the hatred has not been resolved. They got involved in the middle again. It is true that the old hatred has not been resolved and a new one has been added. Very soon

It is easy to burn yourself.

Sean changed his subject and said: "It is impossible to send you to the position of Grand Duke, but there is no problem in helping you gain control of the Jacob River in the Manyu Army, especially the control of the major natural ports.

You must win them all, you only have half a year, and within this half year, Yong Ye’s battleships will cooperate with your army’s actions.”

"Half a year is enough." Angie Beina nodded excitedly.

There is no chance of becoming the Grand Duchess of the Manyu Army. It would be good to expand one's territory.

In fact, what Commander Manyu values ​​most most now is the main waterway on the Jacob River. Only by firmly holding it in their hands can the exchange of materials between the Princess Regent's fief and the Yongye Army be completed smoothly.

The output of mineral salt and coal mines in the territory currently controlled by Angibena is enough.

Although the four-party meeting collapsed, it did not prevent Angie Beina from using the banner of Philip's allies to occupy the natural ports along the area controlled by Patram.

With the cooperation of the hundreds of battleships and merchant ships of the Evernight Army, Angie Beina's Knights Hospitallers were so elusive that they attacked wherever they pointed. Patlem was unable to guard against them.

After all, the Jacob River has just reflowed. Those natural ports have not formed villages and towns, and many of them are wastelands.

There is no question of whether there will be a fight or not. The battleships of the Yongye Army will transport them there and plant a flag to express sovereignty.

Patram, who was confronting Philip on all fronts, had no time to pay attention to her.

After the flag was planted, the main event came. The building materials of the Yongye Army continued to flow down the river.

With the help of the Yongye Group's military engineering corps, ports of various sizes were quickly formed.

Of course, the help of the Yongye Group Army is not free. Anji Beina will need to repay it with port taxes and various minerals in the future. Some ports are even leased to the Yongye Group Army for a period of one hundred years.

The Lancelot royal family did not directly withdraw their aid to Philip. They still needed him to help them hold off Patram.

…

"Congratulations, my Lord Baron, from now on, you are my guardian knight." Sophia smiled and handed Sean's personal seal, family crest and flag to Sean.

"Awaiting your call at any time, my princess." Sean responded respectfully.

Although he used honorifics and an extremely formal knight's answer, it seemed a bit ridiculous given the situation in front of him.

Because the entire process has been simplified enough for them.

There were only three or two kittens among the witnesses. Except for Angie Beina, who was a third party, the others were either from the regent princess or brought by Sean.

There is no officiant, there is no canonization ceremony, and even the oath of allegiance is omitted.

If Amelia hadn't strongly opposed it and thought that what they were doing was completely against tradition, they would have just skipped the process of awarding personal seals, family crests and family flags, and just did it verbally and changed the titles.

Just register it in the royal archives of the Lancelot royal family.

Anyway, their allegiance is verbal and has no actual binding meaning. It is to give Sean a legal Byron Alliance status, and also to whitewash the Evernight Army and become a part of the Byron Alliance.

Whether others will admit it or not is a matter for the future. Let’s wait until both parties are in the honeymoon period and get official proof.

Even after a simple investiture ceremony, this person's seal, family emblem, and family flag were not given by the Princess Regent, but were designed and made by the Yongye Army long ago, and they were just handed over from her.

The Princess Regent and the others rolled their eyes. This was the first time they had seen such a childish conferment. What was even more unacceptable to them was that their Royal Highness the Princess, who had always been extremely serious, did not refuse and was playing with great interest.

They really want to ask loudly, are you still our original princess? What kind of ecstasy soup did this guy pour into you?

What she shows does not represent her true character. Perhaps beneath the calm appearance of the Princess Regent, there is a rebellious heart hidden. She has long been tired of the same pattern, but is limited by the environment and her own identity, unable to make changes.

.

Occasionally, if you indulge like this once in a while, you're like a cat that's caught a fish, it's not a lot of fun.

The Princess Regent conferred upon Sean the title of Baron, the lowest level of actual title in the Byron Alliance.

It's not that the Princess Regent can't give it to someone higher, but it doesn't mean anything. On the contrary, it can easily cause trouble for herself. Those old foxes in the capital are waiting to catch her all day long.

As mentioned before, this is just a verbal oath of allegiance. Sean does not need to pay taxes to the regent princess, and naturally he will not receive additional fiefdom. The territory remains his own.

It is worth mentioning that through this not-so-serious canonization, the Yongye Group Army has officially established its own logo.

The personal seal, family crest and family flag handed over from the Princess Regent are the only serious things in this canonization.

They are designed by Yongye Group Army from top to bottom through repeated research and painstaking efforts. They will represent Yongye Group Army to the outside world.

The Andis people worship black, and the Yongye Group Army is named after Yongye, so they always use black flags.

After six or seven years of use, many people have developed feelings for them. Besides, they are somewhat famous in the Andes Mountains. Many people know that the black flag is the symbol of the Evernight Army.

Therefore, when designing the new flag and emblem, they did not change this. They still used black as the base, but in order to make it look less thin, they added some things to it.

There are not many things added, just one mountain, one river, and one city.

The mountain, needless to say, is the Andis Crater. Although it is a few simple strokes, the Andis Crater has a unique geographical environment and is highly recognizable, so it can be recognized at a glance.

The river is the Jacobs River that has just resumed flow.

There is no dispute about these mountains and rivers. They not only nurtured the Andis people, but also served as the basis for the development and growth of the Yongye Army. Whether it was the ancient Jacob River before its reflow, or the Jacob River after its reflow, they

They will continue to nurture Andis people.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Andes Mountains are a dangerous and wild place.

In the eyes of the Andis people, she is the mother who gave birth to them and raised them.

A son doesn't think his mother is ugly, so what son doesn't love his mother and his home?

When this was brought up, it was unanimously approved.

What is really controversial is that city.

That city is also very recognizable as the Twin Cities that were just put into use.

The controversial point is whether the Twin Cities are qualified to represent the Evernight Army.

Although the Twin Cities are now the first city of the Evernight Army, whether it is the northern fortress that relies on the entire Odin Grand Canyon; or the three-dimensional city that was once a trinity of mountains, caves, and water on the territory of the Three Cave Alliance; or the Andis Inland Lake

After the water level dropped significantly, a large basin was exposed, where towns were being built.

According to the style of the Yongye Army, no matter which one of these three is completely completed, it will not be worse than the Twin Cities, and may even be a step up.

After all, both the infrastructure of the Yongye Army and the architectural design team headed by Ferdinand are growing rapidly and are far from reaching their limits.

But after arguing for a long time, the Twin Cities were finally selected.

As the opposition said, the Yongye Army is in the process of growing rapidly, and no one knows where the limit is, including Sean.

On the contrary, the Twin Cities, where they started, are very representative and represent the first step taken by the Yongye Army.

The meaning of the shape of the Twin Cities is also very good. It is like a door, which represents both protection and welcome.

There is nothing wrong with using it as the symbol of the Evernight Army.

What's more, this kind of thing is not static and can be improved at any time. For example, the garrison in the Twin Cities uses the Twin Cities logo, and the Northern Corps of the Northern Fortress can completely replace the Twin Cities with the appearance of the Northern Fortress.

The Yongye Group Army's flag was very unique after it was formed.

The white painting on a black background is somewhat similar to the ink painting with reversed colors. It is full of unique charm and can be said to have a profound artistic conception without being conventional.

Even in this aspect, the well-informed Princess Regent praised it highly, saying that it was unique and could be recognized at a glance among thousands of lords and nobles' banners.

The family crest is a simplified version of the family flag, with different numbers added to it according to different ownerships. This can be used for identification plates of some departments.

For example, the Military Supervisory Office directly prints the word "supervision" in the middle, and the Military Staff Department directly prints the word "staff" in the middle.

The family flag and family emblem are both called the Byron Alliance, and within the Evernight Army they are called the military flag and military emblem.

It is worth mentioning the production process of the military emblem.

The special molds used are cast in one go. Not only do the emblems have a three-dimensional effect, some even have special effects.
