『Chapter error, click here to report』

Vidal sat in a carriage that was not very ornate, and this carriage befitting his status as a baron, and in the long line of lower carriages behind sat more than one or two hundred officials, all of whom had been trained by William over the years. Vertex updates are the fastest

In addition to them, there were more than a thousand residents of Denlenburg who accompanied him, and William promised that as soon as they could reach Issamdenburg, they would immediately receive a thirty-acre five-year tax reduction field, and within five years, they would only have to pay twenty percent of the tax.

This temptation is enough for them to abandon their family business in their original hometown, they don't want William's previous life of the Celestial Empire people to have that kind of homeland inseparable thoughts, for them, as long as the benefits are enough, even if they let them go to another kingdom, they are willing.

Little civilians, it's all this idea.

And with them were three hundred and sixty Denlenburg infantry, which was the number of soldiers in three columns that had been replenished with new recruits.

In addition, there are about 500 militiamen, their combat effectiveness is not bad, and more importantly, they are huge, and they are the main force in the defense of William's territory at this stage.

Vidal walked on the neat stone road of Denlenburg, marching rapidly, there is a pasture in Denlenburg, war horses and horses are not a scarce resource, and now the marching army, even the infantry and militia of Denlenburg are sitting on the open carriage drawn by the horse.

The stone road was unobstructed and moved quite quickly, and in just three days it reached the junction of Denlenburg and Issamdenburg.

Looking at the narrow path in front of him with winding and rugged potholes, Vidal couldn't help but squint his eyes, he had not stepped out of Denlenburg for a long time, he was used to the neatness, affluence, and efficiency of Denlenburg.

Looking at the current potholes and crooked narrow roads, he couldn't help but feel a little troubled, and he also had a little bit of a score for the next work.

He walked back to the carriage and retrieved a report about five or six pages thick from the box it carried, which contained information collected by Tus Jean Dark Dagger at the Issamdenburg branch.

It can be said that all the data of Isamdenburg after the end of the war, including the number of people, the stock of food, the attitude towards William, and the attitude towards the news of the defeat and loss of the territory of the Earl of Cansville, are all clearly written on the report.

It was also one of the chips that Vidal was able to use to help William establish an effective rule at Issamdenburg.

Looking at the report again, Vidal couldn't help but wrinkle into a relaxed smile.

The population of Issamdenburg is estimated to be close to 200,000 people, and there is no resistance to the defeat of the Earl of Cansville and the takeover of the place by the Earl of William.

All of this was thanks to the Earl of Canswell's rampage here, otherwise how could he have regained his strength in such a short period of time and still be able to pull out such a large number of troops?

In fact, at this time, the population of Isamdenburg has become much smaller, although the place of Isamdenburg is smaller than Dengrenburg, but the population is much denser than Dengrenburg, at least more than 200,000 people.

However, the previous Earl of Canswell's conquest, coupled with the devastation of the war, directly caused the population of Isamdenburg to drop by tens of thousands.

In such a situation, of course, it was impossible for anyone to continue to support the rule of the Earl of Canswell and rebel against William, on the contrary, they welcomed the two hundred Denlenburg infantry stationed in Issamdenburg Castle, and there was no surprise in controlling the huge discussion of Isamdenburg.

If this situation was known to the Earl of Cansville in the Dungeon of Denlenburg, it is estimated that he would also spurt out a mouthful of old blood and tremble with anger.

The 200 Denlenburg infantrymen successfully took over Issamdenburg, and Vidal felt that things were not so difficult.

He marched to Fort Issam for about seven or eight days, during which he encountered two bandits and robbers, and was dealt with by the Denlenburg infantry as if they were cutting vegetables.

Eventually, after ten days of marching, they reached the outskirts of Issamdenburg.

At this time, Issamdenburg was completely controlled by the two hundred Denlenburg infantry stationed there, and after seeing the flag below, and after verifying their identity, they let Vidal and others enter the city.

The first thing Vidal did when he entered the city was to take control of the soldiers here, and quickly informed all the nobles and wealthy merchants in the castle that the Count of Denlenburg had taken care of the place.

The conquered Issamdenburg and the nobles and wealthy merchants on this road certainly have no opinion, the nobles are basically purged or captured on the battlefield, in short, the entire Issamdenburg, except for a small number of small nobles and nobles who have no territory court nobles, all the land is basically ownerless, that is, William's.

And those wealthy merchants were even less likely to oppose William's rule, after all, William had taken a lot of laws and regulations in his territory that were conducive to commerce and commerce, which was a policy that even they agreed with very much.

Therefore, the merchant class would never rebel against William, even for profit, and many of the burghers, who were also their employees, would not rebel against William's rule here.

Thus, at least in Issamdenburg Castle, William's reign was largely certain.

Vidal sat in the town hall, which was originally the main castle of the Earl of Cansville and is now used as a town hall by Vidal.

First of all, he directly dispersed 40 of the 200 officials and deployed them in various key departments throughout Issamdenburg, the commercial tax department, the warehouse department, the caretaker department, and the bookkeeping department.

The other officials were also divided by Vidal, and each of them went to their precinct with a few guards or mercenaries.

They were not like officials in the castle, they were often the head of a village alone, and they were in charge of everything in the village, which was not a small challenge for them.

In this way, in ten days, William determined the right to rule Denlenburg under the operation of the officials, without a little chaos.

William, who received the report, was very satisfied with Vidal's approach, and it was not easy to achieve this level in just ten days.

If you want to rely on governance alone to make Isamdenborg rich and not full of investment, it will take at least ten or even twenty years of development to catch up with the current Denlenburg.

William has already dispatched a batch of cattle to Issamdenburg, and the business rules are intended to be published here in a timely manner, and the sooner Issamtenburg develops, the better.

Now there are two large cities under his control, four towns, Issamdenburg also has two towns, and castles, even more, there are five, so that they are connected to form a trade route.
