Chapter 475: Charlemagne also has a bounty
Charlemagne was ecstatic at this time, he didn't expect that just by coming to the holy war battlefield to fight soy sauce, he would be able to have such a harvest, and he would have the same title as his father!
Charlemagne's words were heard clearly by William, and he snorted coldly, startling Charlemagne.
William said to Archduke Wallace dissatisfiedly, "Father, how can you give him such a heavy reward? ”
"Hmph, if you don't give him a knighthood, don't you allow me to give it? This is also my little grandson! ”
"Yes...... This title is too high! Earl! He'll be proud! ”
"Yes, father, I got such a high title at such a young age, I'm afraid I can't convince the public!"
Earl Creed, the eldest son of Archduke Wallace, also said beside him, seeing that his father liked his nephew so much, he didn't feel a little in danger, so he opened his mouth to persuade him, and so did Count Vernell on the side.
William was a little depressed, and he worked hard for seventeen years before he became the venerable earl he is now.
And his son reached his current height at the age of fifteen, which is really the gap between the rich generation and the rich second generation.
"It's okay! Be a child of the Wallace family! Pride is inevitable! ”
Archduke Wallace said indifferently that in the holy world, or in all non-Confucian cultural circles, the word pride has never been a derogatory term.
In his opinion, as a descendant of a noble Grand Duke, it is better to have pride with others.
Charlemagne snickered beside him, and it seemed to be fun to see his father, who was usually extremely majestic and omnipotent, deflated.
Archduke Wallace patted Charlemagne on the head and said, "But don't be too happy, your territory is different from your father's, and the territory I gave you is not even one-fifth of your father's!" ”
Indeed, William's territory spanned more than 500 highways from north to south, and more than 400 kilometers from east to west, which was equivalent to half a province of the Celestial Empire in his previous life.
During this time, Archduke Wallace also knew the enormity of the area ruled by William.
Your county is only about forty kilometers from north to south and thirty kilometers from east to west, with a castle, seventeen manors below, and more than a hundred villages.
Although Archduke Wallace said it lightly, but this is already the general size of the county, although there are strong and weak among the counts, but most of them are counts, and this is the scale.
It is rare for a super-large county like William to annex two large counties, even much larger than many duchies.
Charlemagne was not discouraged after hearing this, although he was William's heir and could get all of William's territory in the future, but being able to have a county and earldom after being a minor was also an extraordinary reward for him.
"What a lucky boy!"
"However, since he is the eldest son of Earl William, he is also worthy of this reward!"
"Say what? That kid has captured the leader of the enemy alive, what's wrong with the extra reward? ”
After such a reward, the attitude of the nobles in the field changed a little, and they were a little blushing when they looked at such a reward.
The land of an earldom, which is a territory where the Grand Duke will be blushing and the king will be tempted, and this reward has been given by a fifteen-year-old child, which can't help but make them a little envious.
Of course, there were also many upright aristocrats, who condemned and despised those nobles who spoke sour words, and sincerely appreciated Charlemagne.
Whether it is jealousy or whatever, Charlemagne's name is all over the world but it is already doomed, the holy war is a matter of great concern to the entire holy world, and to be able to make such immortal feats in the holy war, Charlemagne's name is destined to spread throughout the holy world.
William is also very satisfied with this situation, as a father, he must be happy for his son to become famous.
Although this will show off the wood, William believes that with his own pressure, no one will dare to do something that Charlemagne should not do.
He was pleased that Charlemagne had built up his prestige at such a young age, so that he would be able to suppress his own arrogant soldiers in the future.
After all, when he recruited nobles as vassals, he also observed it carefully, and the wealthy Denlenburg would definitely attract a large number of nobles if he wanted to recruit vassals.
And William, it was among these nobles that he prided himself on being selected, in addition to what hard conditions he had to accept from William, being good at war, having strategic vision, and having a certain degree of loyalty were also his standards.
If Charlemagne does not have a certain prestige and military ability, it is estimated that he will not be able to suppress these people.
Thinking of this, William also understood that it was time for him to let go and let Charlemagne hone it.
He had to establish his prestige and support in the army in order for his position to be secured.
William had already decided that Charlemagne would first go to the army to temper himself in the future, and then stay in the Dark Dagger for a while, and wait until next year, after Jean's birthday, he would give him an army to let him manage the fiefdom.
And he also has to master some financial skills, after all, as a wealthy area with prosperous commerce like Denglenburg, a lord who only understands military affairs and does not understand people's livelihood and commerce is not good.
William is now officially planning for Charlemagne's confession, and he must have his own military forces and territory.
There is no difference between an heir who does not have military power in his hands and a salted fish, just like in the previous life of the Celestial Empire, the crown prince who has no military power will always lose to the prince who has military power.
In the end, after he has these abilities, he has to go to William's side to learn William's knowledge and the skills he has summed up in the past seventeen years.
William thought: "When the time comes, I have to bring the heirs of those noble families with him, although we have grown up and trained together since childhood, but we have to be by our side all the time!" ”
William's children of these vassals are trained here by William, in addition to training, that is, to communicate with the future monarch, most of the dozens of children are adults, William intends to pick out a dozen of the most outstanding, let Charlemagne take away.
After thinking about it so much, it was only for a moment, and William was not so much assimilated by this world, but rather liberated by the nature of the Han nation in his bones.
The issue of the heir is regarded by him as a top priority, if the heir is not good, then no matter how good the foundation he has laid, it will be in vain, and the family will still not be able to continue.
His heir must not be a young eagle sheltered under his wing, and flying into the sky is his destiny.
King Leonac suddenly said: "By the way, there are still about 10,000 gold coins worth about 10,000 gold coins here that have not had time to be distributed, so I think it is better to reward them to Count Charlemagne!" He deserves it, too! ”
No one objected to this, and even the Marquis of Apollon, who was cold-eyed on the sidelines, wisely did not speak.
Charlemagne jumped to his feet even more happily when he received this reward, and he glanced at his father.
Seeing this, William still didn't know what this kid meant, rolled his eyes and said, "Don't worry! It's all yours! ”
