Chapter 565: Take Control of the Whole Country
At this time, William was already a tacit king that almost all nobles agreed with.
Soon, the nobles all returned to their own territories, and those who did not have the zero degree of the nobles were all included in William's name.
The local nobles and ladies were all taken by William to Denlenburg, and together with William, they went to Denlenburg to settle down.
At this time, Denlenburg, after years of expansion, has long become a metropolis that is not inferior to Brijek City, and even stronger than Brijek City.
Whether it is the size of the city, the population of the city, and the prosperity of commerce, Chengdu is almost stronger than Brijek City.
Therefore, Wilhelm had the idea of making Dellenburg the capital of the future.
All the nobles expressed their affection for William, and many directly and publicly expressed their desire for William to take over the position of king of the kingdom of Tskma.
And William, after getting this recommendation, of course, chose to refuse, and immediately told the outside world that he had never had any illusions about the throne of the Tskema Kingdom.
He is just to help King Brolin and Queen Dareen avenge him, and he has no intention of doing anything wrong, and this position can only be inherited by the legitimate heir of the royal family.
After William's words came out, it aroused the admiration of many people, who felt that William was a loyal man.
And Count Creed once again said that now that the trench coat of the Kingdom of Czkma is shaking, only Count William can guarantee the safety of the Kingdom of Czkma and unite all the fate of the Kingdom of Czkma to ensure their interests.
After he expressed this attitude, many nobles understood what was going on, so many people said that only William deserved this throne.
In this way, under the repeated insistence of the nobles, William had to "reluctantly" "reluctantly" take over the position of king.
And he said that he was just temporarily taking the throne of the king, and he was malicious, and once someone more suitable for the throne of the king appeared than himself, he would immediately give up the throne.
Moreover, some nobles with less flexible brains even believed William's nonsense, and some low-level squires, wandering knights, troubadours and nobles all believed William's words and expressed great admiration for William.
In addition, William sent troops to suppress bandits, so that William accumulated a very good reputation, and the whole country is looking forward to William's early ascension to the throne and lead them to live the same good life as the residents of the Denlenburg area.
In this way, the call for William's ascension to the throne became louder and louder, and at William's request, the Pope also agreed to come to the Kingdom of Tskema to personally crown William.
And William intends to hold a grand athletic event, inviting many countries to participate, to celebrate the coronation of the kingdom of Tskema.
In the past few months, the Kingdom of Tskma has been very unsettled, and the army of Denlenburg has been suppressing bandits everywhere in the territory of the Kingdom of Tskma.
For such a long time, nearly a year of turmoil, the nobles and the kingdom have no time to take care of the grassroots security, many people from poor families have become bandits, robbers in other countries, as well as some wandering knights, have also become entangled together, becoming bandits and robbers.
Causing great damage to the security of the Tskma Kingdom, William sent all the Denlenburg troops to suppress bandits throughout the Tskma Kingdom.
Mountains after mountains were breached, groups of outlaws were exterminated, and the army of Denglenburg basically pushed down all the outlaws entrenched in the territory of the Tskema Kingdom.
For a while, the kingdom of Cikma was in turmoil, and the security was much better all of a sudden, and many residents and villages no longer had to worry about security.
The voice of William's praise was sung again.
Soon, the lawless elements in the whole country were eliminated, and the business that had been withered due to the war began to recover, and many traveling merchants returned to the kingdom of Cikma.
However, the city of Brijek could not be restored to its former glory, and after almost a year of devastation, all its inhabitants were gone.
It used to attract a lot of people because it was the capital, but they didn't come back because it was no longer the capital.
On the other hand, Denlenburg has become more prosperous because of its potential to become the capital.
During this time, William mobilized all the remaining orcs and 60,000 orcs in Denlenburg to the kingdom of Cikma.
They will be here for the next round of construction, the stone road will be the first to be built, and the complete road system will allow him to better control the kingdom.
After more than four months of protracted siege warfare, William also consumed a lot of food, in addition to the food of soldiers and horses, the loss on the road was also not small, and the food accumulated by William over the years was also lost nearly one-third.
Duke Bunkerson is still imprisoned in the prison of Denlenburg, where he will be killed and planted around the country during the coronation ceremony.
And those areas that lost their nobility were all brought under William's command, and he quickly established his rule in the local area, and one by one the well-trained officials went to various places to serve as tax collectors and village heads, as well as administrative units at all levels, and they were also full of figures.
William temporarily exempted them from taxes for a year, after all, these serfs were also quite poor, and it was better to collect more taxes from merchants.
In an instant, William's territory had expanded more than two or three times, and now his direct territory alone was more than the size of the three provinces of the Celestial Empire.
After all, he had the Duke of Bunkerson under his rule, and he was still a direct domain.
In addition, all the local nobles, except for a few who took the initiative to help William capture Duke Bunkerson, were all exiled by William, their territories confiscated, and expelled.
For the time being, William planned to recuperate and bury himself in development, and only after the stone roads were built all over the kingdom, so that he could firmly grasp the lifeblood of the country and increase the country's food production, he would not consider expanding his territory.
He doesn't want to be a hooligan in the eyes of neighboring countries, like the Kingdom of Lillard, which wants to get involved wherever something happens.
And he has invaded other countries many times, and has a very bad reputation among the surrounding countries, and many countries are wary of the Kingdom of Lillard in many things.
This is the typical rogue state, and it would be very bad if William mixed up like this.
Therefore, at least for two or three years, he will not interrupt the mobilization of troops and use force, and the most important thing at present is to immerse himself in development.
William was about to become king of the kingdom of Tskema and he was the first to tell his father, Archduke Wallace.
When Archduke Wallace got the news, he was ecstatic, although he was a duke himself, but the Wallace family had never produced a king.
Now it is different, there is about to be a king in the Wallace family, and their family will become more prominent and noble because of it.
The families that have had kings are different.
