Start as Inherited Baroness

It didn't take long for Simon and his party to arrive at the Eagle City.

The entire city is gray-white. The outer walls are about ten meters high, and the arrow towers that rise not far away are several meters higher.

The entire city is roughly in the shape of an oval, encompassing a small hill and about twenty miles in diameter.

The design is quite reasonable. No matter which direction they attack from, the defenders on the city can always attack from one or two directions without any blind spots.

And the entrance of the city gate has a design similar to an urn city.

Don't even think about conquering such a city without tens of thousands of elite soldiers.

Simon observed for a while and immediately directed the team to enter the city one by one.

However, he was stopped at the city gate.

"Mercenaries are not allowed to wear armor when entering the city." A guard officer wearing armor said seriously.

"We are not mercenaries, we are under the command of Baron Simon!" Airei shouted loudly while pressing his sword.

"Why don't you have a family emblem?" the guard officer glanced at them and said calmly.

At this time, Simon also rode over, signaling for Airei to shut up, and then said: "I came to Eagle City to be granted the title of Baron of the Brave Land."

The officer glanced at him, bowed, and then said: "Sir Simon, the baron can only bring his knights and ten armor-piercing soldiers into the city.

Others are asked to settle in Young Eagle Town outside the city. "

"Okay." Simon nodded, not embarrassing this person, and couldn't embarrass him.

Immediately lead people to get out of the way and go to Young Eagle Town first. This town is just west of Eagle City, less than a mile away.

It was very prosperous, with an endless stream of people and horse teams coming in and out.

"Airei and Sarit, pick ten people to follow me into the city.

The others, led by Ma De and assisted by Yaman, will settle here first and come to you after I am granted the title.

In addition, Ma De paid the military salary for these days and purchased the excess supplies. "

Simon said this, took out ten golden eagles and threw them to Mader. This was the activity capital and military pay for the hundred and ten of them.

He has learned that in the Eagle Kingdom in this world, salaries are paid every seven days, some are paid monthly, and some are even paid quarterly.

Posting every seven days was too troublesome and quarterly was too long, so Simon chose to post on a monthly basis.

The physical fitness of a militiaman is usually two silver sheep per month for an entry-level warrior, and two silver sheep and twenty bronze stars per month for a militia shooter.

The militiamen were supposed to be unpaid and were recruited from the free people in the territory. They could be requisitioned for three months every year for free, and then they would have to spend money to use them.

But these were all soldiers summoned from the ranks. Simon planned to treat them all as professional soldiers, so they would all be paid as usual.

A light infantryman was paid four silver rams per month, a longbowman was paid one silver stag per month, and a heavy infantryman was paid two silver stags per month.

The light cavalry received one silver deer and six silver sheep per month, and the heavy cavalry received five silver deer per month.

Mader took the golden eagle and said respectfully: "Don't worry, Baron Simon, my subordinates will definitely do what you asked them to do."

Simon nodded, and then entered Eagle City with Winnis and some of her maids, plus guards such as Airey and Sarit.

The roads inside are quite spacious, and the two opposite roads in the middle are specially used for horse racing.

The environment is also good. Although horse manure is often seen, there are always civilians cleaning up the manure.

It can be seen that residents in the city are not allowed to defecate anywhere, so the air in the city is acceptable.

"It does look like the capital of a country." Simon thought to himself as he looked all the way.

But when he got here, he was still worried about being assassinated. After all, he was not a baron now, so he had to be careful in everything.

In order to avoid a long night and many dreams, he did not wash up. After many inquiries and directions, he went directly to the government office on the side of the royal castle.

The guards guarding the door refused to let them in. Simon quickly stated his intention, but the guards did not dare to be too negligent and immediately went in to report.

After a while, a well-dressed man came out of the government office. His robes were all made of wool, with regular patterns scattered throughout.

He looked at Simon and said calmly: "Are you Simon?"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

"Do you have proof?" the person asked again.

Simon immediately showed the letter from Marquis Val.

The man didn't take it, but looked at it carefully for a few times. When he found that the fire paint mark on it was correct, he said, "Follow me."

After that, he turned around and walked towards the government office. Simon followed closely, and the guards he brought also followed in without being blocked.

"The security here is not very strict. A dozen armored men just came in?" He was a little confused.

The Government Affairs Office occupies a relatively large area, and Simon followed him through several courtyards, finally arriving in front of a heavily guarded courtyard.

Standing at the door were eighteen warriors wearing iron armor and double chain mail. Their linings and cloaks were all fiery red.

You can tell at a glance that they are special elite soldiers.

“Sir Simon, you are the only one allowed in, and no weapons.

The Hand of the King, Lord McCann is inside. "The person who led the way said softly.

Simon nodded, handed the sword at his waist to Airei, and walked in with the letter in his hand.

After not many steps, he entered a grand room, which was simply furnished. Apart from some decorations, there was only a dark table.

At this time, a middle-aged brown-haired man was sitting behind the table, writing something with a quill.

He didn't look up at them, and the guide didn't make a sound.

After a while, the man put down his pen, neatly sealed a piece of parchment into the letter, and then covered it with wax.

Then he looked up and said, "Send this letter to Whiterun.

Are you the lucky Simon?"

"Sir, I am Simon."

"You are really tall." Macon smiled at him.

Simon had to smile along. He should be more than 1.8 meters tall, which is considered burly here, and he is still young and has room to grow.

After a while, Macon stretched out his hand, and he immediately understood and handed the letter over.

Macon naturally opened the letter skillfully, spread out the parchment inside and read it silently.

This process took about a few minutes, and then he looked up at Simon for a few more times, and said with a smile: "Dili, go and arrange for Sir Simon to stay in the Golden Eagle Mansion.

There will be a ceremony for the enthronement in a few days. The Hollen family is a new noble family, and they don't have a badge or a family language yet. You have to come up with one as soon as possible.

What a lucky little guy, I'm a little jealous of you."

McKen looks casual and humorous.

"Thank you, sir." Simon smiled humbly, bowed, and followed the guide out.

At this time, this person was not as arrogant as before, and his attitude was much better.

As he walked, he said: "Sir Simon, my name is Dili. Mellen, the second son of Viscount Black Rock Castle."

"It's an honor to meet you." Simon smiled.

"Baron Simon, you are polite. I will take you to the Golden Eagle Mansion now, where only the real lord or heir is qualified to live."

When Grian said this, he could not hide the envy and jealousy on his face.

Simon still smiled modestly, with a restrained look on his face: "Thank you."

After leaving the government office, Ai Lei and others followed. Not far from the Golden Eagle Mansion, there was a place specially provided for the followers to live.
