Chapter 363: Before the Throne

"Be strong in your hands!"

The veteran scolded loudly: "If I had followed the Earl to fight in the east and west, and I would have died on the battlefield long ago!" ”

"Let me tell you, our family, including me, and your three elder brothers, all plan to develop in the Earl's army, and you are no exception, if you don't practice your skills now, and wait until the future, you will die on the battlefield, then I don't care!"

The veteran has no culture, he will not teach children like William, he has two ways of dealing with children, beating and scolding, scolding if he is disobedient, and beating if he scolds if he doesn't listen, this is a veteran's way of education.

"Yes Father! I know! ”

The eleven-year-old replied aloud, and the wood in his hand, sharpened like the spears used by the Denlenburg infantry spearmen, was also being shot.

As one of the first veterans to follow William, he was of course a pikeman, and all the Manders infantry used spears at the beginning, and only later did those who used swords and shields.

At the age of eleven, the child has a height of 1.5 meters, and by the age of seventeen or eighteen, it is estimated that he will grow to about 1.78 meters, which is the result of sufficient food and rich nutrients.

The boy held a three-meter barrel in his hand, as long as the Denlenburg infantrymen, except that they did not have their half-meter-long spear head, which was almost as effective as an armor-piercing cone.

But even so, for such a teenager, it is a big burden.

There were not many people like him, but there were also many of them, and there were more than 700 veterans who were discharged due to good play and disability, and about 300 of them chose to come to Isamdenburg as a squire to help William consolidate his dominions, and at the same time manage them as a squire.

So, Issamdenburg is basically completely solid.

Just when William was leisurely training with his son, inspecting the Knights and training with the soldiers from time to time, or accompanying Wellina Lingsi, time slipped away quietly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when Prince Hechard would inherit the throne.

On that day, William took all the nobles except Baron Reims and Baron Kenos, plus the knights of the Inner Palace, and the group rushed to the royal capital of Brieque.

As he walked along the sleek, spacious stone pavement of Denlenburg, William felt more and more that he had been on the right track.

If it weren't for the road construction, William might still be walking on the winding path of the territory on a horseback now, and he doesn't know when he will be able to get out of Denlenburg, and his control over Denlenburg will not be as strong as it is now.

The knights of the Inner House all took off their shiny equipment as they marched, and the armor was so heavy that no one would ride on a war horse fully armed for the sake of being handsome.

That will not only make you sweat, but also consume the physical strength of the war horse, and it is not impossible to even make the war horse tired.

In this way, William and the knights of the Inner House walked out of the confines of Denlenburg in three days and entered the royal domain.

Unlike Denlenburg, which had hardly been hit by war, these areas were almost completely devastated, with the ruins on the ground still uncleared, and the smell of rotting and burning on the ground.

Those are the smell of charred human corpses, and some animals don't eat these charred corpses, so they can stay.

And those carcasses that were not charred were eaten by various scavengers early.

Looking at the devastated villages, corpses strewn all over the wilderness, full of human tragedies and wilderness, William couldn't help but shake his head, human life in this era is so worthless, it is simply a loss of life.

Along the way, there are quite a few such situations, and basically one out of two or three villages is like this, and it wants to be miserable.

In this way, William finally led the nobles and knights of the inner palace to the outside of the royal capital of Brijek.

At this time, the royal capital was more gorgeously arranged, after all, Prince Hunthard's enthronement ceremony was coming soon, and it was impossible to hold it too shabby.

But to be honest, the current royal situation is indeed very embarrassing, King Brolin's defeat has almost lost all the strength accumulated by the royal family, and the current financial situation of the royal family is not optimistic.

As a result, the city of Brijek is now less lavish and lavish than an ordinary banquet in the heyday of King Brolin's reign.

Seeing the walls of Brijek City, William asked the knights of the Inner House to put on their armor and put up his iron cross flag with a white background for the people above to see and identify himself.

"Iron Cross on a white background! It's Earl William who has arrived! Let them into the city, and then you will report to the palace that Earl William has arrived!" ””

A high-ranking leader on the city wall recognized William's banner and hurriedly said to those behind him.

A moment later, Viscount Mouyon also came to meet William outside the city with a dozen knights and a very favored female officer under Queen Daleen.

"Count William, you are very welcome to attend the enthronement ceremony of His Royal Highness, and when the time comes, all the nobles will re-swear allegiance to His Royal Highness, and I think you will also be dressed up to attend!"

"Haha, of course, otherwise how could I be here?"

William smiled and nodded, and said assumedly.

"That's great, Queen Dareen and Her Royal Highness, including me, are looking forward to your arrival, you are the first of all the Earls to arrive!"

As he spoke, Viscount Muyeune took William and walked towards the castle.

And the nobles of William in the back also followed him inside, and the knights of the inner palace were arranged in five rows, neatly following behind the nobles, and also forgot to walk inside the castle.

The degree of neatness made the residents of the royal capital amazed, and they expressed their curiosity about the knights who were so disciplined, but after they saw the knights' family coat of arms representing William, they said as a matter of course: "No wonder it is so disciplined, it turns out to be the army of Earl William!" ”

When they reached the door of the palace, the knights of the inner palace were taken to the rooms by the servants and settled, and when they arrived in the royal capital, the other nobles were also arranged by the servants into the rooms in the palace.

In the end, only William was left with Norwen and Urimu, followed by the favored female official of Viscount Muyor and Queen Dareen.

"Let's go inside! Count William! Viscount Muyeune led William to the door of King Brolin's former study, and only here he faced William and said, "Queen Dareen and Prince Hechard are waiting for you inside!" ”

Looking at Viscount Muyon's sad expression, William couldn't help but be a little curious, not knowing what Queen Dai Lin was going to say to him.

With curiosity, William pushed the door open and walked in.
