The Count of Loire, on the other hand, had left Laughlinburg with his vassals, their mission had been accomplished, and there was no point in staying there any longer.

Walking in the dense Fato Forest, the nobles gathered to connect and have a lot to talk about.

"What a gain you have this time, Baron William! This is truly enviable! A nobleman said with a smile.

"It's nothing, it's just luck!" William smiled humbly and said indifferently.

"Don't say that, Baron William, that plan of yours is full of praise even for General Yousen!" The Earl, riding his warhorse, interjected.

Just five days earlier, General Youssen had entered Laughlinburg with his army, and the Count was naturally to greet him with all his vassals.

After learning about the battle, General Youssen showed great interest in William's tactics and insisted that William go to him to discuss it.

After William's in-depth explanation, General Yousen suddenly said to William: "It's really talented, we are all old, it seems that in the future, the whole kingdom will be your world!" ”

General Yousen's face was a little melancholy, but it was more gratifying, after all, William was also a nobleman of the Cikma Kingdom, if he could grow into a big nobleman, or a famous general, then it would be of great benefit to the entire kingdom.

At this moment, Baron Mouyeune also walked in through the door, just in time to hear William's plan, and General Yousen's praise.

"Ah, it just so happens that Mu Youen is also here, let me introduce you!" As he spoke, General Yousen pointed at William, who also stood up from his chair to show his respect for Baron Muyorne.

"This is Baron William!" General Yousen then pointed at Baron Muyeune and said to William, "This is Baron Muyeune, and the nephew of King Brolin!" ”

"You two are both young and handsome people of the kingdom, and the future of the kingdom will depend on the two of you, so you have to get along well!"

William nodded first and bowed slightly, he had completely inherited the humble character of the Celestial Empire.

"Hello, Baron Mouyauen, it is a pleasure to meet you here, I have heard your name in the Denlenburg region, and the troubadours are spreading your reputation for bravery and warlike everywhere!" As he spoke, William looked at Baron Muyurn with a polite smile on his face.

Originally, Baron Muyeune was a little unhappy when he heard General Yousen praise William like this, but after seeing William so humble and polite, he immediately dispelled his antipathy towards William and had a good impression of William.

Of course, this good feeling is not that kind of good feeling, they are all people with normal sexual orientation.

"Hello, Baron William, your reputation as a champion knight and fox of Denlenburg is also spreading throughout the kingdom, and your wisdom is as rumored to be, and it is a pleasure to meet you!"

As the nephew of King Brolin and an orthodox member of the royal family, Baron Muyorn is of course very proficient in etiquette, and has performed a royal etiquette that looks quite elegant on the surface of a flash marriage.

Seeing that the two of them were in harmony and had initially established a good relationship, General Yousen nodded with satisfaction.

After all, he saw far more than the Count of Loire, and although the Count wanted to promote his distant relatives to inherit the title, it depended on whether the Count's vassals agreed or not.

It is true that if the Count's strength is completely superior to that of all the vassals, he will not have to take into account the opinions of the vassals at all

However, it is obvious that the Earl's strength is not enough to crush all the vassals, and even as long as William unites a few nobles, he can live against the Earl in this matter.

It may be that the count can command other nobles in other matters, but after all, it is a matter of inheritance, and these nobles cannot hope that a person with little strength and no wisdom will inherit the earldom.

You know, if the count has no heirs, then after his death, the territory can be divided among the vassals, although most of the time it will be divided between the royal family and the damned church.

But this temptation is not something that anyone can resist, and it may not be possible to unite against the Count when the time comes.

The Count did not take this into account at all, after all, the nobles of Denlenburg were quite united with the outside world, except for the Viscount Curwen.

At the beginning, Viscount Cowen was also the best successor to the title of Earl of Denlenburg, so many nobles joined the camp of Viscount Cowen.

In other matters, the nobles almost all obeyed the Count's orders, which created a false impression for the Count that whatever his orders would be supported by the vassals.

And completely ignore the emotions of these vassals who do not like the successors at all.

General Yousen and Baron Muyoen had very good chat skills, and William could also train these, and under the mutual praise and appropriate questioning, the atmosphere became more and more hot, and the atmosphere was quite enthusiastic.

After chatting for a while, William also established a relationship with them preliminarily, and they also exchanged each other's heraldic tokens, and a friendship was established.

William had gained a lot of benefits this time, especially the more than five hundred citizens, half of whom were literate, including five blacksmiths, with a dozen of their apprentices, and carpenters and stonemasons.

and the doctors who were quite passable, and the rest were mature workers who were proficient in the handicrafts, and these people were rare talents for William.

Needless to say, blacksmiths, carpenters, and stonemasons, they are absolutely skilled and will be treated preferentially wherever they go.

Needless to say, the importance of saving the dead and helping the wounded is self-evident, and the focus is on the remaining 400 or so citizens who are not good-looking.

They have honed considerable discipline in the workshop, and most of them are literate, even the remaining ones who are illiterate, they can be regarded as some acquaintances, and can be used as military judges and flag bearers.

However, the flag bearer in William's army is not so important, after all, there is already a military commander, and the flag bearer can only be used as a symbol.

In this battle, William lost more than eighty soldiers, five heavy infantry casualties, and no knights, most of them were minor wounded.

The booty he plundered was converted into nearly 20,000 silver coins, and even if he gave the soldiers and the knights' bounties, he could drop more than 11,000 silver coins.

This is by no means a small amount for the current William, and the next step is to start a big development in the territory, with various grassroots buildings to be renovated, various buildings to be built, and various industries to be invested.

There was also the policy of feeding the lords, and encouraging production, the salaries of the soldiers, the food of the new lords, and the purchase of leather armor and tanning labor.

These are all money, if according to his current monthly input, he can only save 2,000 silver coins per month, and it is not far from making ends meet.
