Adeles was not a noble from the Gedda province. He was the second son of a baron from the Gascoigne province and entered the civil service system after he became an adult.
His father had a close relationship with the previous consul and transferred Adeles to the province of Gedda.
After thirty years of hard work, Edles climbed to the position of city councilor.
For Adelais's class, the municipal governor is basically the top.
To continue climbing up, you need to have some influence in the capital.
Adelais communicated with each noble at the banquet, exchanged interests, won the support of the nobles, and wrote joint letters.
When he arrived at Richard's side, he made it clear directly, promising that as a senior provincial official, he would safeguard the interests of the Harland Territory and prevent Archon Jerram from formulating official policies that were detrimental to the Harland Territory.
"How come the conflict between me and the consul has become known to everyone?"
"The province of Gedda is not far from the Duke of Jonathan, and the nobles have the ability to go to the Duke of Jonathan to buy salt. But everyone is afraid of offending Consul Jerram, even Viscount Romen wants to buy salt from him for Prince Felix.
The interest group behind it delivers benefits.
Baron Richard organized a caravan to buy salt in the Duke of Jonathan. This matter could not be hidden from everyone's eyes.
Although I don’t know the details behind it, Archon Jerram will definitely take revenge on Lord Harland.”
Richard smiled, picked up the red wine, touched it with Adelais, and took a sip.
"I did have some business conflicts with the executive, but Archon Jerram wanted to ease them. During this expedition to counter the rebellion, Archon Jerram even provided me with some weapons and equipment at his own expense.
I don’t plan to continue buying salt from Duke Jonathan next year, and I can also provide it to Prince Felix.”
"Baron Richard is a smart man and would not choose to do this. You are a person highly valued by Duke Roger. Duke Roger's attitude is very clear and supports Prince Chris, the Queen's legitimate son."
"You are right, I will support the mayor."
Richard knew in his heart that since he had offended Jerram and was entrusted with an important task by Duke Roger, he had actually become a person on the line of the eldest prince Chris.
As a baron noble, since you are standing in line, you cannot jump left and right. Otherwise, I am afraid that the forces from both sides will attack you, making you no longer human inside and outside.
Since Duke Roger reused himself, he should repay Duke Roger's kindness from aristocratic moral point of view. Politically, he must stand with Duke Roger.
Richard and Adelais completed the exchange of interests, had a few drinks with several Brener County nobles, and returned to the military camp early before the banquet was over.
Because of his personality, Richard is not suitable for network management.
When interacting with nobles, acting and hypocrisy are necessary skills.
In this respect, Richard is not like his father William, but similar to his second uncle Powell. He has a more direct and simple personality and is suitable for pragmatic work.
But a hereditary aristocratic family must have members who are suitable for communication and expand their personal connections.
Having these relationships may not necessarily lead to success, but without these relationships, there is a high probability that something bad will happen.
In the current Harland family, William and Mrs. Ola still do this kind of thing.
Ron is relatively mediocre, with average abilities in all aspects, neither too good nor too bad.
After Hayden worked as a spy, he saw a lot of dark sides, and his personality became a bit vicious. Richard was not good at submissiveness, and Wendy was a woman.
Adrian and Tang En are not particularly adaptable in character.
The other family members are still relatively young and have to observe their abilities and temperaments.
Richard rested in Osma Castle for more than twenty days. Martin and Vito completed their mission of escorting the refugees and returned to Osma Castle to join Richard.
Two days after Richard and Martin joined forces, the merits of suppressing the rebellion were finally determined.
In order to clarify Richard's military exploits, it is said that there was a lot of controversy in the royal capital.
Regarding whether the Boiling Blood converts are professionals? Do their heads count as meritorious service?
How important is Richard's counterinsurgency battle in Brenner County? Should he be awarded a major meritorious service?
The two groups kept arguing over various issues.
The current royal capital is because King Charles publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the eldest prince Chris.
The remaining adult princes gathered a group of people and began to compete crazily for the heir apparent.
Whatever one prince supports, the other will oppose.
This situation has seriously affected the political stability of the Grant Kingdom.
Coupled with the fact that Duke Brenner, the pillar of the royal family, is old and seriously ill, the Kingdom of Charles is even more troubled.
In the midst of the commotion, the main force of the counter-rebellion army led by Duke Roger was defeated, losing more than 2,000 troops.
In this battle, the rebel cavalry attacked the grain road, and more than half of the brigade escorting the grain and grass was lost. At the same time, the rebel leader Malo, the Night Walker, also used the legendary magic Fire Meteor, which severely damaged the main force of the siege.
The two thousand troops lost were the main force of the counter-rebel army.
The two brigades of the Northern Army suffered more than a thousand casualties. Even the Warcraft Cavalry led by Duke Roger suffered more than thirty casualties when attacked by legendary magic.
The Warcraft Cavalry Regiment commanded by Prince Roger is an important force of the Grant family.
Everyone is very precious, and the loss of more than 30 people at one time has already made Roger very heartbroken.
There were twists and turns in the war, and Duke Roger immediately sent a personal letter to the royal capital, requesting the mobilization of the Grant Royal Cavalry Academy, and a heavy reward for Richard, allowing Richard to lead the coalition of nobles from Heihe and Brenner counties to participate in the counter-insurgency war.
The situation changed, and King Charles made a decisive decision to reward the coalition forces of the Black River and Brenner nobles.
The converts of Boiling Blood are all professionals, and it was a significant war for Richard to lead the troops to counter the rebellion.
The two hundred Boiling Blood converts are considered professionals, and their combined total is two great merits.
Coupled with dozens of cultist professionals of different levels, including the seventh-level warrior Gao Liwen, the sum of the Human Head Skills exceeds six great skills.
In addition, it was of great significance for Richard to lead the troops to quell the rebellion, and he was also rewarded for his great service.
In this counterinsurgency battle, the army commanded by Richard was assigned five major merits, six medium merits, and four minor merits.
Not only did Baron Sharp receive some of the credit for these contributions, but his uncle Soros also received four secondary credits.
The merits attributed to Richard include four major merits, three medium merits, and eight minor merits.
Three great merits belong to killing the seventh-level professional Gao Liwen, one great merit is the merit of commanding this battle, and the remaining merits mainly come from the soldiers under his command.
Apart from Richard, the person with the most meritorious service was Baron Franklin. Although Baron Franklin suffered very heavy losses and killed dozens of Boiling Blood converts, he had a total of seven medium meritorious deeds.
After the meritorious service was awarded, the troop deployment order was sent in less than three days.
In addition to the coalition of nobles in Black River County, the hereditary barons of Brenner County must provide a squadron of soldiers.
When fighting the rebellion in Osma City, the nobles of Brenner County sent out their main force. When they went to fight the rebellion in Canyon County, the nobles of Brenner County, like Baron Rice and others, sent serf soldiers to fool them.
Richard organized the baron and elite guards together with Baron Rice and others, and appointed Baron Plani as the commander of the 2nd Warcraft Cavalry Squadron.
As for the serf soldiers provided by the nobles of Brenner County, they were responsible for escorting grain and grass and serving as auxiliary soldiers.
