William led his army through the towns of Legle and Mortagneopes, rested at Fort Bretteuil, and after three days of arduous marching, the county of Evreux was in sight.

Stompe... Stompe...

Phale, who had led the light cavalry to reconnoiter the front, returned and rode up to William, and said excitedly:

"Young Master William, look! Ahead of us, Lord Robert, Earl of Evreux, is leading people to meet us at the city gates! And the Baron of Agenthon, Lord Richard, and the Bishop of Berkeley in the parish of Lisce, these distinguished adults were also present! ”

"Oh!" William was surprised by this, he did not expect that Uncle Robert would arrange such a large pomp to greet him, and it can be said that the nobles and church personnel of the entire county of Evreux gathered here in preparation for this grand triumphal ceremony.

"Drive..."

William rode out and looked forward, and sure enough, the gate of the county guard of Evreux was neatly lined up with long guards of honor on the left and right, and in front of the city gate, Uncle Robert, Baron Richard, and Bishop Berkeley came out of the city to greet them.

"Sir Hubert, let the infantry march in unison, march in front of the guard of honor, knight Rodrigo, let the cavalry march on horseback, take care to dress properly, and we will greet this grand triumphal ceremony with the most beautiful posture!" William rode his horse to the two of them and commanded solemnly.

"Yes, His Highness William!" X2

The two of them gave a military salute on their horses, touched their left shoulder with their right hand, and said in a loud voice.

"Forward!"

With William's order, the infantry lined up in a relatively random queue and suddenly began to gradually become neat under the command and adjustment of officers at all levels, while the cavalry lined up behind William's personal guards cavalry, and began to march on horseback with spears held high.

Click... Da Da... Click... Da Da... Click... Click...

William and Baron Adolphus and the guards cavalry just came to the honor guard, and the musicians arranged on both sides played the passionate music together, and the honor guards holding flags on both sides had a majestic and majestic momentum.

Dozens of flags embroidered with the coat of arms of the Duchy of Normandy on a red background and gold lions fluttered in the wind, as well as several flags of the Count of Evreux, Baron Agentau, and the parish of Lisse, a spectacle that William had only seen when his father, Duke Robert, went on a campaign.

"Walking, one-two-one, one-two-one, one-two..."

Stomp Tread... Stomp Tread...

With Sir Hubert's order, the drummers in the ranks beat rhythmic drums, the cavalry behind William stepped on their horses, and the infantry also followed the drum order to march forward, raising their legs in unison, and the sound of thunderous footsteps, making the Count of Evreux and others and the honor guards on both sides look sideways.

The formation that William created shocked everyone present, and no army had ever been able to step in unison with such a neat footstep before, and the sound was like thunder.

William, who was riding his horse at the forefront, raised his right hand upwards and waved down to give the order, and suddenly the soldiers behind William let out a deafening neat slogan:

"Hooray, hooray, His Highness William, hooray!"

"Long live, long live, long live His Royal Highness William, long live the Normandy family!"

......

The slogan is endless, like a giant hammer, constantly knocking on everyone's hearts, making people can't help but feel a shock, so that people can't help but agree with the words in the slogan, as if there is magic in it.

Count Robert, who was not far from William, smiled with satisfaction and praised William's methods of surrendering without a fight.

Baron Richard beside him also showed a shocked expression, William's performance completely subverted the previous impression of Baron Richard, and he couldn't help but get closer to William's side in his heart.

To the left of Count Robert, the Bishop of the parish of Lisce, Berkeley, is about forty years old, wearing a white sacrificial robe that symbolizes the 'triumph of virtue', wearing a bishop's crown, a cross around his neck, a ring on his hand, and a bishop's scepter in his hand, with a holy and merciful look on his face.

Bishop Berkeley looked at William's exaggerated stride, only to see his brow furrowed slightly, and his eyes were full of doubt.

"Your Excellency Bishop Berkeley, you should trust William's abilities now. There is no possibility of adulteration in this war to pacify the rebels of Alençon! My decision to canonize William was absolutely reasonable. Count Robert turned his head to Bishop Berkeley, and then asked Baron Richard:

"Right? His Excellency Baron Richard. ”

"Yes, Lord Robert! His Royal Highness William did show great military and leadership skills in this war. Baron Richard was questioned by Count Robert and nodded in response.

"Hmm," Bishop Berkeley nodded slowly, pondered for a moment, and said, "I admit that William is an impeccable candidate, and he is indeed up to the task!" ”

"Your Excellency Bishop Berkeley, Your Excellency Baron Richard, greet our victor William!" Count Robert proposed.

Both nodded yes and walked up with Count Robert to greet them.

When William saw that Uncle Robert's grandfather, Baron Richard, and Bishop Berkeley had come up to meet him, he did not dare to hold it up, and dismounted with Uncle Adolphus and hurried up to meet him.

"Uncle Robert, Baron Richard, Bishop Berkeley." William bowed politely.

Seeing that William was so polite and knew how to respect his elders, the three of Count Robert had relieved smiles on their faces.

"William, you have grown a lot after this expedition, and you have become much more mature and stable." Count Robert gently patted William's shoulder and said with a look of relief.

"It's all thanks to you, Uncle Robert!" William said modestly, without the slightest sign of arrogance.

"Alright, stop being modest, William." Count Robert took William's hand and came to Bishop Berkeley, and introduced William: "This is His Excellency Bishop Berkeley, who is in charge of the affairs of the parish of Lisce, and he is here to preside over your canonization ceremony today. ”

"Your Excellency Bishop Berkeley, it's a pleasure to meet you." William bowed to Bishop Berkeley again.

"His Royal Highness William, don't be polite, let's go into the city together first." Bishop Berkeley smiled kindly, propped his right hand on his lips, and said.

"Yes, William, let's go inside."

Saying that, Count Robert took William's hand, helped William to get on the horse, and then turned over and got on the horse and walked side by side with William.

Robert and William walked through the city gate into the main neighborhood of Evreux, and the streets were lined with crowds of onlookers, who could not extinguish their enthusiasm for William despite being blocked by the guards, waving and shouting, and some even throwing flowers into the air in celebration.
