Chapter 541: Grace and Might
Chief Mutus and Chief Tiliro tried to resist, and even thoughts of suicide came to their minds, but unfortunately, the fear of death prevented them from doing so.
They were finally captured by the light cavalry led by Hurim, and when they appeared in William's well-fortified quarters, their expressions were ashamed.
It was already night, the battlefield had already been cleared, and the army of Denlenburg had set up a huge camp, with William's direct army in the innermost part and the army of the vassals outside.
For so long, high-quality iron from Chekel was in high demand, after all, the armor of William's direct army was made of these high-quality iron.
After the weapons and armor are created for the direct army, there is not much of the high-quality iron left, and there are not too many that can be supplied to the vassals' armies.
At present, most of the troops under each vassal are armor made of ordinary iron, and only the knights under his command and elite troops can wear armor made of high-quality iron.
It was already nightfall, and William was very concerned about the safety of the camp, and sentries patrolled between the tents, and almost every five minutes, a patrol of ten men could be seen.
He led several light cavalry to escort the two chiefs, and a patrol approached him.
"Today's password!"
Said a patrol officer at the head.
"Ascend to Lenburg!"
One of the hussars said, and the leader of the sentries replied, "In the Order!" ”
The tone of the patrol soldier became kind, and he said, "Where are you going?" ”
"We've captured two of the enemy's chieftains, and now we're going to send them over to the Earl!" Urimu said.
The patrols saw the Earl, and hurriedly saluted, they did not see clearly before it was too dark, and only now did they find that the person riding the horse in the front was actually the right-hand man of the Earl, the honorable Viscount of Urimu.
"Okay, if it's okay, you can go down first, I'll take these two people to William!"
Along the way, he entered William's tent unimpeded.
He brought the two embarrassed men in and said to William, "William, look who's coming!" ”
William looked at the two with a smile and said, "Isn't this Chief Mutus, Chief Tiliro, the Negro?" ”
"My dear friend, I didn't expect us to meet on such an occasion today!"
Listening to William's words similar to mockery, the two of them couldn't help but turn dark, but under the eaves, they were in William's hands, how dare they lose their temper, but they were silent with a blue face.
"Don't be like this, my friends, be happy! I'm not going to hurt you, I just hope you'll help me with something! ”
William's voice was very gentle, without any intimidation, and the two of them couldn't help but move when they heard William's words.
They knew what these damned Lourdes would do if they captured the pagan leader.
Betrayal and hanging are the lightest, what kind of burning, waterboarding, burning, are endless, many pagan leaders have been tortured in this way.
Therefore, they have to run away desperately, otherwise if such a thing really happens, they will definitely not be able to bear it.
Now with William's promise, their minds are alive, although they don't have the status of the big chief, but it is best to be able to save their lives.
And according to their observations, William still seems to have a request for them, which makes them inevitably have some illusions, wanting to retain the position of the Great Chief, it is a big deal to submit to William on the surface, but his position is still there.
However, this was all their wishful thinking, and William certainly couldn't let them continue to be their chieftain like this, so they were just fantasies.
William's intention to keep them was only in the idea of stabilizing people's minds first, and their role was not as great as they thought.
So when they bargained with William with what they thought in their hearts, William and Hurim were both stunned.
They didn't understand why, at this time, these two people still didn't understand the situation, and they still wanted to be their big chief.
After relieving for a while, William immediately became furious, as an earl, he had a temper, slapped the table and sneered: "You really can't see the situation clearly, I wanted to spare your lives, but it seems that you don't know how to lift, then I have to remove the obstacles!" ”
After William finished speaking, he asked Hurim to take the two men into custody, and amid their shouting and pleading, Hurim led people to take them down.
After they left, Hu Limu returned to William's camp, and said with some laughter: "I didn't expect these two people to be so stupid, they still haven't realized their identity and status, and they still want to be the big chief!" ”
William also shook his head helplessly, how good it would be if his enemies were all like this.
Ten days later, when he had led his army to control the pastures and population of the entire Central and Western Chekers, he gathered everyone together.
More than 200,000 people gathered together, which is quite a large group of people.
More than 100,000 cattle and sheep gathered together, and in just a few days, they ate all the grass on the ground and had to go to other places to feed them.
The gathered Chekels were very frightened, and some of them had soldiers from their families and died at William's hands, and they could not help but be a little afraid of William.
Now William gathered them again, so that they didn't understand William's approach for a while, but William's strength was too strong, so many warriors were defeated in his hands, and the remaining old and weak women and children were defeated and had no mind and ability to resist.
William was leading people in a gathering place for the Chekels, intending to have the two chiefs executed by splitting the car, which is the legendary five horses.
This punishment has never appeared in the Holy Cult world, even in the entire Dels continent and the Piars, and now it has been taken out by William.
Previously, William only planned to use the two as puppets to appease the inhabitants and let them live under his rule with peace of mind.
However, since Mutus and Tiliro were so ignorant, William did not do so, and they were not so useful anyway.
Now William interrupted Enwei and let everyone see the fate of his enemies first, showing his strength and might.
Then, give them another benefit, let them be grateful to William, grateful at the same time of fear, and love at the same time of fear, and then fill the steppe with a large number of immigrants, and the fortresses scattered all over the place, and a large number of locals join the militia and William's army, and within a year or two, the place can be firmly ruled by William.
Both of them had ropes on their limbs, and the other was tied to their horses, and they lay on the ground screaming and begging in despair, hoping that William would spare them.
They already had a rough idea of what they were going to experience in a moment's time. 2k reading web
