Chapter 249: Uproar
William's words made the nobles and knights in the field stunned for a moment, and they didn't even react to William's meaning, and they could even hear a needle falling quietly. us
But then, when they reacted, there was an uproar in the hall, and a chaotic discussion sounded inside.
"Is he mad, Lord Earl? Doesn't he know what he's talking about? ”
"Oh, Supreme Father, what is he thinking, Count William?"
"He wants to restrain the nobles like this? This is simply ridiculous! ”
"Your Excellency, this is simply restricting the rights of the nobles, but can it really succeed in this way?"
The knights and nobles, as well as the knights' families, were full of confusion about William's words.
The knights of the nobles below complained about William's orders, because if their feudal lords accepted them, then they accepted them as well.
This would definitely affect their rights in their own estates, so they objected to the order, hoping to force William to give it up with their words.
But how could this pressure force William to retreat?
He clearly knows the benefits of centralization, even if he can't do it in his life, but he can try to take back the rights in the hands of the nobles.
What's more, as long as William sets the current rules, then the nobles under his command will be able to abide by them in the future, because those who can't abide by it will definitely not be loyal to him, which can be regarded as a screening.
And the few nobles who are loyal to him now, although I don't know if they will accept it, but as long as they dare to rebel, William's thunderous wrath will immediately fall on their heads.
"Now, will you be able to do what I ask? Bolshevi baron? ”
William looked into the eyes of the Bolshevik baron with an expressionless face and asked in a calm tone.
The Bolshevi baron had a struggling expression on his face, and he knew that if he accepted it, then his rights would be much thinner in the future, and all the nobles who were willing to submit to Denlenburg would be subject to this policy.
At that time, his own autonomy will definitely decline significantly, and he will become like that, is the aristocrat still the nobility?
At that time, he may become the target of scolding from the nobles of Denlenburg, because this policy starts from himself.
But if they don't agree, then they will definitely offend Earl William because of this, they know William's strength very well.
Although William's troops suffered heavy losses in the Unification War, William's Menders recruits were successfully honed into veterans who could go to the battlefield in the suppression of bandits.
These 400 men joined the Manders infantry, and the number of the Manders infantry rose again to 800 men, and the combat effectiveness increased instead of decreasing.
What's more, the knights and armed infantry of the Count of Loire all fell into William's hands, and William of course had to control such an important thing as the army as soon as possible.
While they may not be as loyal as the Manders' infantry, at least they are under William's control.
The armed infantry alone was too much for them to bear, let alone the more than 180 knights who swore allegiance to William.
Therefore, compared to the remaining strength of these nobles, William was completely crushed.
And he didn't accept this condition, it was very simple, it was nothing more than canceling the canonization, and then inexplicably dying in a war or banquet.
After weighing it, the Bolshevi baron finally gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "Yes...... Yes, Lord Earl, I can accept it! ”
After saying that, there was a loud discussion in the hall.
As for Nuowen and Hulimu, they had already known about William's arrangement, so the two of them did not have any shocked or opposed actions or expressions.
Although William met with strong opposition from the two of them when he first told them, William still used his incorruptible tongue to explain the stakes and tell them the reason for the incident, and finally persuaded them to support his order.
As for Tus and Vidal, as well as Banshteske, they don't need to be considered for the time being, and they definitely don't dare to oppose William's opinion.
And Wella, as William's little wife, of course, supported all of William's decisions, and after figuring out William's intentions, she quickly expressed her support.
"Very well, in that case, you are now the rightful ruler of Ennis Manor, and I will protect you and your family, and at the same time you will be loyal to me and my family, and make me and my family glorious!"
With that, William struck his sword three times on the shoulder of the Bolshevik baron, and after being blessed by the bishop of the diocese of Denlenburg, the canonization ceremony was finally completed.
When the Bolshevi baron got up from the ground, his face was very ugly, and he walked back to his seat in despair.
The faces of the nobles were not good-looking, and there was a fierce struggle in their hearts, after all, the Bolshevik barons had already given them a start, and if they didn't accept it, it would definitely anger Baron William.
After weighing the pros and cons, they finally chose to accept William's terms, anyway, they would be able to have a subsidy of two thousand silver coins a month, wouldn't they?
Eventually, each of them declared their allegiance to William, and it didn't matter what was in their hearts.
Immediately afterwards, William said to Norwen behind him: "Knight Norwen listens!" ”
Norwin hurriedly ran from behind William to the center of the hall, knelt down on one knee to face William, and said, "I am willing to serve you, honorable Earl William!" ”
"Knight Norwen, who has made many contributions, and has made great contributions in several wars, in the war to unify Denlenburg, he led the knights of Mendes and heavy cavalry, as well as the knights of the nobles, and successfully crushed the enemy's knightly troops, allowing us to achieve a decisive victory!"
"Therefore...... I have decided to give Innesburg and his nine estates to Norwin, and at the same time to give you the title of Viscount of Inzelsburg, and from this day onwards you will be the rightful ruler of the Denlenburg region, Inzelsburg! ”
As he spoke, William tapped his sword three times on Norwen's shoulder before lifting him up from the ground.
Norwen was still a little dizzy at this time, although he had long known that William would not treat him badly, but it was too dreamy to suddenly jump from a small knight to a viscount with a territory and a castle.
Ever since he met William, he has been suffering from miracles, first escaping from a robber cottage, then becoming a servant, then a knight.
There were so many things he had experienced during this period that he couldn't even believe that he had really become a noble viscount.
"You are now a viscount with a territory, you should have your own vassals, go to someone you trust, or your relatives!" William looked at the stunned Norvein, laughed, and then said.
