On the one hand, Sancho is one of the few relatives of William, and their previous relationship was not bad, and it was not easy to lose a friend and relative, on the other hand, Sancho was one of the few kings in the 11th century who could go down in history, and William also had an inexplicable desire to get Sancho's allegiance.

However, since the other party had made up his mind, William did not want to force it, and immediately released dozens of noble knights who were willing to follow Sancho, and then sent troops to escort Sancho and their party to the port of Barcelona, where they would sail across the Mediterranean to their destination Constantinople. I

The battle began at 7 a.m. and ended at 2 p.m., by which time William had already learned of Roger. Morality. News of Montgomery's attack on Pamplona, the capital of Navarre.

On the other side, the Pyrenees defense line and the fortress of San Sebastian were thrown into chaos by the news of King Sancho's defeat, which was soon captured by the Duke of Rodrigo.

With the Pyrenees' defenses breached, Sancho IV of Navarre bereaved and Duke Andrew's Third Army marching on Zaragoza, it can be said that there is no one left in the Kingdom of Castile and Navarre to stop William's conquest.

"No, there's one more!" William's mind suddenly conjured up the figure of someone, the gloomy Alfonso.

Before the start of the battle, William had already known that Alfonso had led his troops in his rear, so he deliberately left Faller. Osborne led the infantry brigade of the Second Army to defend Victoria, defending his rear from Alfonso's attack.

As long as Victoria City is not lost, even if Alfonso has great ability, he will not dare to ignore the threat posed by Victoria City and launch an attack on William's back, and even because of Victoria City, Alfonso will be subject to many restrictions when collecting supplies.

William thought that with Alfonso's jealousy and unyielding character, he would at least tentatively launch an attack on Victoria, but in fact he did not, and even led his troops to sneak away at the critical moment of the decisive battle between William and Sancho.

There was no way to solve the two enemies of Sancho and Alfonso at the same time, which William regretted.

Alfonso is a venomous snake with a venomous mouth, there is no doubt about that, and if he is given any chance, he will kill William at the most crucial moment.

"Duke Rodrigo was ordered to lead the 2nd, 5th, and 7th legions to occupy Navarre and Castillua, and to purge those who had resisted.

Duke Andrew was ordered to lead the 3rd and 8th legions, responsible for the invasion of Zaragoza and the Kingdom of Aragon.

I will lead the 1st and 2nd Guards Corps, as well as the headquarters of the Nordic Guards, to march towards Leon. ”

William thought for a moment and immediately ordered the clerk beside his mountain.

"Yes." The clerk transcribed William's order, and William stamped his royal seal and handed it over to the herald.

After William's victory in the Battle of Victoria against Sancho, the three kingdoms of Castile, Navarre, and Aragon became William's possessions, and no matter what, they could not escape, and they were left to accept it by William's troops.

The most important thing for William at this moment was Alfonso's whereabouts, who was the only one who could pose a threat to William's conquest of Spain.

He is well versed in history, but he remembers very well what the king of León, Alfonso, has done in history.

Historically, he was a key suspect in the murder of King Sancho of Castile, and now he has secretly killed King Sancho of Aragon, and may even be involved in the plot for the mysterious death of William's father-in-law, Ferdinand I.

In the face of such a sinister and cunning beast that does not care about family affection and morality, William cannot be too wary of him.

On the second day, after hastily clearing the battlefield, William Centennial led his troops in pursuit in the direction of Burgos, where Alfonso had fled.

"Count Roger, Robert, you quickly lead your cavalry in pursuit of Alfonso, be sure to slow down his march, and of course it is better to capture him on the spot!" William looked at Roger, Earl of Brattbon. Morality. Robert, Duke of Ottwell and De Hebas, ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The two men received their orders, and then led their respective cavalry out of the large force and pursued in the direction of Alfonso's escape.

It is clear from William's orders that he has murderous intentions against King Alfonso, and this poisonous snake must not be left behind.

Truth be told, William was a benevolent king, and after his defeat and capture, none of his enemies were hanged or beheaded, and he was treated with kindness, and the word to kill someone did not even appear in the edicts he issued, but now it did.

Although Leon Alfonso fled the battlefield a day earlier, to be honest, he didn't run much distance, after all, his army was an extremely complex army.

Alfonso's legion consisted of the defeated soldiers he had previously contained, the soldiers he had re-recruited from his realms, the troops effectively loyal to his vassal nobles, some mercenaries, and even the Moorish hussars.

How could such a loosely organized army be compared to the well-organized and well-trained Norman Legion, which was a cut short of the speed of the march, not to mention the faster Norman Guards Cavalry Brigade.

Approaching Burgos, Alfonso had intended to take the opportunity to capture his brother Sancho's treasury and the princess scroll of Aragon, but in the face of the Norman cavalry in hot pursuit, he had no choice but to escape in the direction of the castle of Palencia.

Palencia is located on the plain southwest of Burgos, on the border between the kingdoms of León and Castile, and is one of the most important military and economic towns of the Kingdom of León.

In Palencia, where there were not only huge castles but also a large number of troops, he would be confident that he would be able to resist the attacks of William and the Normans if he could lead them to Palencia.

"It's the Carrion River!"

A wide river appeared in front of Alfonso, and he immediately couldn't care about maintaining his image, and cheered uncontrollably.

The Carrión River is a river in Spain, located in the north of the country, that flows through Palencia and eventually empties into the Pisuega River, with a length of 179 kilometers.

So as soon as you can see the Carrion River, the Palencia Castle is not far away.

This was undoubtedly a chance for Alfonso to be pursued by the Normans, to escape the ascension, and how could he not be thrilled to see that he was about to arrive in Palencia.

However, before they could rejoice, countless Norman knights appeared behind them again.
