A war ended dramatically.

Baron Wales was not tied up like other prisoners of war, but, according to the so-called tradition, was treated with aristocratic courtesy.

In this battle, two of the ten knights of Comos were lost, which can be regarded as a wounded man, the armed infantry was killed and wounded more than a dozen people, as for the farmers, nearly half of them were wounded, and two of William's four teams were killed.

Baron Comos haggled with Baron Wells in the camp, and the discussion was nothing more than what he wanted from Baron Wells.

"Dear Baron Wells, you started this war first, and my knights have also lost two, and my servants have lost even more, so I hope to be able to get ten villages under your command to make up for my losses."

"Nope! That's impossible! I only have twenty-three villages, and you're taking half of my territory! ”

"Oh, Baron Wells, don't get excited, listen to me, it's not difficult for you to make up ten villages, your knights have also lost four, these are four vacant villages, you are taking out six, these ten villages are not difficult!"

"Nope! When pigs fly! I can only give you up to five! ”

"That's too little! Nine! Couldn't be less! Otherwise, I'll just let my soldiers take over ten villages!" "Baron Comos has a very tough attitude because of his victory.

"You! Okay, seven, I won't give it any more! Baron Wells said angrily.

Baron Comos saw that Wells had begun to gamble, and knew that he had reached his bottom line, so he did not continue to raise the price.

"Then let's talk about the ransom again," Baron Comos asked.

"How much do you want?" Baron Wells didn't seem to intend to bargain too much, and oddly enough, the ransom usually represented the value of the captive's status, so as long as the offer wasn't too harsh, he would generally agree.

"You, a noble baron, two hundred silver coins, four captured knights, eighty silver coins each." Baron Comos was literally a lion's mouth.

"Are you crazy? It's just whimsical! You're offering more than double the ransom price! Baron Comos exclaimed, the price was beyond his bottom line.

"Nope! It's not expensive! I think this price is just worthy of your noble status, is it difficult for you to think that your status is not so noble? "Baron Comos is a little ugly, this price was suggested by William, so William said slyly on the side.

"You! I remember you, it was you who caused our defeat! Baron Wells's face flushed, and he recognized William, and said meaningfully.

"Thank you for your attention, Lord Baron, it's my honor to be remembered by you!" If you don't think your status is worth the price, then we also offer a price of ten silver coins for you and three silver coins for the knights, and if you want to choose this price, we don't have a problem with that! William retreated, he knew that these nobles would never do such a thing to lower their status, and this dumb man was destined for them.

"Baron Wells's face is very ugly, if he gives less money according to what he said, it is an insult to himself, and it is also an insult to his knights, if he gives that huge amount of money, then the income of his territory for half a year will be gone, it is simply cutting flesh on him, so he is very entangled, looking at this hateful face in front of him, he can't wait to tear it apart!

"I'll give it, a total of four hundred and forty silver coins, and I'll give it to you when I return to the territory!" Baron Wells said in pain.

"Yes Baron Wells, this is worthy of your status!" William said with a smile.

Baron Comos, who was on the side, heard that he could get so many silver coins, and he couldn't close his mouth, but he didn't expect William to be so articulate.

In Baron Comos's heart, William's status is already above other knights, and it is rare for a knight to have such wisdom.

The troops began to prepare for the return journey, and some of the seriously wounded peasants were disposed of, that is, to be given a good time, and the armed infantrymen who were not seriously wounded were treated at the manor, they were soldiers who had undergone some training.

William looked at the team of only five people left in front of him, and sighed in his heart, only two people died on the battlefield, but the other injured died shortly after leaving the battlefield, the cause of death was blood loss and wound infection, and only five of the eight people who went out to fight remained.

After releasing Baron Wells and his knights, Baron Comos's side began to clean up the aftermath and bury the corpses and other things on the spot.

William returned to the manor with the large army, and when he went out to war, he had an army of nearly three hundred, but when he came back, he was only in his early two hundred, and dozens of families began to suffer, dozens of wives lost their husbands, dozens of mothers lost their sons, and dozens of children lost their fathers.

However, William only sighed in his heart, after all, he had been used to seeing death for more than a year, and there would be occasional sighs, but it would not affect him.

On the return of the manor, the evening was a feast to celebrate the victory, which was attended by all the ladies of the knights, especially the two knights who had died, both of whom had their own heirs, whom Baron Comos remembered for many years of loyalty, and let their eldest son inherit the estate.

Theoretically, the fiefdom was not a hereditary domain, so the baron had to canonize the two villages again, granting the two villages to two young knights, one seventeen and one fourteen, and in a few years the younger knight was not able to exert his combat effectiveness, and his knightly training was not yet completed, and the rest of his training would be completed by the baron.

Although the families of the fallen knights were very sad, the joy of victory was always there, and although all the knights regretted the sacrifice of their two comrades, the celebration continued.

William held his glass and accepted everyone's greetings, the most dazzling knight on the battlefield was always respected, not to mention that the victory in this war was to some extent promoted by William.

"Sir William!" William heard his name called and looked towards the source of the sound.

"Oh! Baron, is there anything wrong? William asked.

"It was you who gave us a chance to survive this war, I am very grateful, and I hope you can continue to think of the Comos family in the future!" Baron Comos said.

"Of course, my lord, I will always be loyal!" William habitually showed loyalty.

"I will reward you for my merit, and I have decided to give you twenty percent of the property gained in this war, and I will also give you one hundred and twenty serfs for the plundered, and I will grant you a village! As another of your minions! ”

Everyone in the field was shocked, they would actually award a knight a second estate, the previous one was nothing, after all, it was a huge achievement, but it was very rare to award a second estate, after all, this is all tradition, there is no custom of awarding a knight a second estate, even if there is, it is a very small number, most of them are to give money to knights.

If the knight has made meritorious service to the caiyi, then sooner or later the knight will become a powerful faction, whether he will continue to be loyal is not necessarily, this is still secondary, if the lower lord has an idle village in his hands, he will generally take it as his own and expand his strength, if the economy is not tight, he will generally choose to use the extra village to collect the most estate, to attract the knights to join.

Therefore, such a reward cannot but shock others, even Wella sat on the chair and covered her small mouth, looking shocked.

William was also very happy, originally William thought that he could get some monetary rewards, but he didn't expect to give himself a village, a knight with two fiefs, absolutely rare, William is not only interested in monetary income, but also two fiefs means that his military resources are also sufficient.

William looked at Valoran with high spirits, his own uncle, and his eyes seemed to say: Look, I will marry your sister!

William moved his gaze to Wella again, just as the two eyes collided, William stared at Wella tightly, his eyes were full of aggression, and Wella blushed for a while, and hurriedly lowered her head, but peeked at William from time to time.

The baron seemed to find out about the matter between the two and coughed, William quickly withdrew his gaze, looked at the baron in embarrassment, and the meaningful gaze swept over William.

William stayed in the manor for two days, and the knights did not return to their own estates, because although the Baron of Wales had been released, the ransom had not yet been delivered, even so, no one doubted that the Baron of Wells would be in arrears, because once he paid the debts, then his reputation would be stinky, and what were the nobles for? In addition to wealth and strength, the most important thing is prestige, and no nobleman wants his family to bear the reputation of a rogue family.

On the third day, Baron Wells brought four hundred and forty silver coins, which filled the whole wagon, along with the documents of the eight villages, which proved the legitimacy of Baron Comos's rule.

The two achievements of four hundred and forty silver coins are eighty-eight silver coins, plundering many villages, after selling them, William got more than forty silver coins, and he took seventy percent of the spoils of his soldiers, which is more than thirty silver coins, and after this war, more than one hundred and fifty silver coins are in hand, and a war is comparable to the accumulation of three people in a year, and this is not counting the spoils of war obtained by Urimu and Norwen on the battlefield, which are their private property.

It is worth mentioning that because of the good performance of Urimu and William on the battlefield this time, and the fact that Baron Comos had seven new villages and were idle, he consulted the two of them on whether to become his knights.

Urimu and Norwen were a little hesitant, they had already decided to follow William, but now a knightly identity was at their fingertips, so the two were very entangled.

William made a decision immediately, and instead of the two agreed to this matter, it is of course the best to become a knight, and he also has two closest friends among the knights, in the character of William's Celestial Dynasty, he is most at ease by forming a gang and forming a faction.

This means that once something happens, there will be three knights standing on the same front, and he has no doubts about whether the two will be with William, and the good thing between them is a pair of pants.
