Lena smiled and raised his glass, drank it in front of everyone's admiring eyes.

"My vassals, the crown of the Grand Duke on my head also has your share of credit. You have won this title for me for your hard work, and you are my heroes!"

"As your prince, I must reward those who have made merit!"

The vassals put down their wine glasses and sat on the chairs, looking at Lena with expectant eyes.

The rest of the people in the field also looked at Lena eagerly to see what kind of reward he would give to this group of people.

"First of all, it is Baron Leyland who leads the army on the front battlefield!" Rainer stood up from his chair.

Baron Leyland also quickly walked to Lena on one knee.

"You commanded my army to stand up front and bought time for my raid, so I decided to canonize you as the Earl of Mosheca County and hand over the two castles, seven manors, and one hundred and fifty-three villages. You rule!"

"You will have the right to recruit troops, collect taxes, and enforce the law. Except for my Basic Law, you will adjust the rest of the laws and tax rates by yourself!"

"In contrast, you still have to pay your loyalty to me. My enemy is your enemy. Are you willing to be loyal to me?"

"Yes, Lord Duke, I will always be loyal to you, and what your sword refers to is the goal of my lifelong struggle!"

Leyland stroked his left chest, meaning to dedicate his heart to Rainer.

"Very good!" Reiner handed a map to Leyland's hands, then tapped his shoulder three times with a long sword, and said: "Now, you are the master of that land, you You can call yourself Earl Leyland!"

"Oh! Earl Leyland!" Everyone cheered loudly, and Rainer mobilized everyone's emotions with his generous reward. They all wanted to know what kind of reward they could get.

Finally, the people who were canonized as earls were Baron Varas, Baron Cod, Baron Leyland, Baron Azac, and Baron Samuza.

Lena canonized a total of six castles, more than 500 villages, and more than 40,000 residents were sealed off in this way.

A total of more than 50,000 square kilometers of territories were thus divided among their vassals.

In addition, Rainer also successively granted some territories to other barons who had not been promoted.

In total, a total of more than 70,000 square kilometers of land has been allocated in this way.

But Rainer didn't care, because his territory was too big, even if 70,000 square kilometers were allocated, there would still be 600,000 square kilometers in his hands.

There are still 160,000 people under his rule. He doesn't care about the land. What he cares about now is population. He looks forward to filling this vast land with population.

The 600,000 square kilometers of land has only 160,000 people, which is an extremely sparse population density.

Put it in the celestial dynasty of later generations, if there is not a population of hundreds of millions of people on such a large land, what would it be worth? There are only 160,000 people now, a gap of thousands of times.

Even with a population of five million on such a large piece of land, there will be no overcrowding and insufficient arable land.

Fortunately, Lenner’s two refugee stations have been established. Each refugee station has a population growth of 7,200 people every year. Otherwise, Lenner would definitely be reluctant to divide so many people out.

So much land was divided, but some people still did not get it, because their credit could not reach the point of dividing the land.

So Rainer gave them other compensation.

From gold coins, to grain, to wine, to animal hides and honey, and so on.

Reiner was not stingy with these things, and gave a lot of points to the vassals with a big hand.

Although a little disappointed, they also knew that they had not made much contribution on the battlefield. It was already very good for Lord Earl to reward himself, so the whole scene was a happy one.

It is worth mentioning that the wine industry in the recent territories has become very developed. Due to the large-scale cultivation of arable land, the entire northern border has a lot of food, and it is almost impossible to eat.

As a result, Ezehi started small-scale winemaking, and after reporting to Reiner, there was a wave of winemaking enthusiasm across the northern border.

No way, there is too much food in the north.

Especially in Rainer's warehouse, the grain was already piled up like a mountain.

Even if the 100,000 tons of grain collected last year were sold to the Earl of Cholar for use by the army, officials at all levels, blacksmiths, and Lena’s castle, there are still more than 60,000 tons left.

And this year's autumn harvest has just ended, and another 140,000 tons of grain has entered Leiner's granary. The reclamation is still continuing, and the output of the two chambers is still increasing.

But Rainer does not intend to sell food on a large scale, this thing is really too important for a territory.

In the past, even winemaking had to be restricted by Reiner in order not to waste food and cause famine.

But now, the food with a lot of food is about to overflow, but Rainer does not intend to sell it to the outside world, so winemaking has become the best way to consume food.

Almost all the old grains of last year have been brewed into malt wine, and now countless barrels of wine are placed in the warehouse where the grains were once stored.

These grains are still stored in place in another form.

After a banquet, the host and the guests enjoyed themselves.

After Rainer announced the reward, everyone fell into a carnival.

The symphony orchestra kept by Rainer played melodious and cheerful music, and the bard sang temporarily compiled lyrics to praise Rainer.

"Oh, the great Lord of the North!"

"You are so strong and so kind!"

"You are the closest servant of the Holy Father!"

"You are the emperor's vassal to rely on!"

"The enemy is trembling under your banner!"

"No one, no one dares to disobey your orders!"

"Kill, corpse, this is the punishment you bring to the rebel!"

"Blood, long sword, the enemy fears your authority!"

"After the war, there are corpses everywhere!"

"Under the earth, it's full of bones!"

"Above the sky, the vulture is hovering!"

"What they peck at is the bones of the traitor, the flesh of the enemy!"

"The red lion flag that never falls on the wall~lightnovelpub.net~ is yours!"

Listening to the so-called epic like limericks, Rainer was in a very good mood.

Although he lost a lot on the battlefield, he also got a certain number of merit points. Rainer had already figured out the usefulness of these merit points.

Put into production a sugar workshop again, and then build a refugee platform.

This artifact of increasing population is really important for the North.

The banquet went on into the night without knowing it.

With Venus in front of Lena, the world seemed to be spinning in front of him.

After accidentally knocking over a wine glass in front of him, Reiner felt that he could not continue to drink, so he walked out of the hall and asked a servant to help him back to the room.

"Um... are you back?" Frantet was awakened by the sound, rubbing his sleepy eyes and said to Rainer in a daze.
