"Ladoff, you gather all the lords on my behalf, and I will hold a military meeting to agree on a counterinsurgency strategy, and all nobles above the baron rank must participate." William looked at Ladolph. Morality. Normandy, Wen Yan commanded.

Although Prime Minister Ladolph's performance in England was a real disappointment for William, he was still his most trusted uncle and had been kind to him.

When William lost his father at a young age, he was forced to leave Rouen and went into exile at the court of Paris to seek help from King Henry I of France, but it was his uncle and uncle Ladolph who helped him, and it was Uncle Ladolph who gave up the inheritance of the Count of Evre, which belonged to him.

It was with the Countdom of Evreux that William was able to raise a large army to quell the Normandy rebellion within a few years, and to defeat his enemy, Kajcay in Burgundy. Morality. Ivrea defeated and expelled him.

Without the help of Ladolph, William would have had to wait until he became an adult, relying on the help of King Henry I of France to defeat Cay in Burgundy, and the Duchy of Normandy would not be as powerful and invincible as it is now, and the Norman kingdom that had not appeared in history would not have been established.

It can be said that Ladolph is William's greatest benefactor, and his kindness is that he will never repay it in his life.

"Yes, Your Majesty, please wait a moment, I will gather the adults immediately." When Ladolph heard William's gentle tone, he knew that he had forgiven his mistakes, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Prime Minister Ladolph humbly saluted William and then turned to leave.

He was not proud and ambitious because he was favored by William, and he still maintained a humble posture in front of William, which made William very satisfied. As for his petty lust for power, William could tolerate it.

Looking at the back of Prime Minister Ladolph's departure, William suddenly remembered that he was over 45 years old but still had never married a wife, and thought that he had died young in history, William couldn't help but be a little worried.

"It seems that I have to introduce Uncle Ladolph to a family affair as soon as possible, at least so that Uncle Robert's lineage can be passed on." William muttered.

William knew that Ladolph was a devout Christian, very clean and self-conscious, and he had not had any scandals with any noble ladies for so many years in a high position, which was what he appreciated when he succeeded to the throne, but now Ladolph's piety made him move towards the abyss of celibacy, which William did not want to see.

Celibacy, which refers to the idea of advocating, believing, and insisting on living without or without a family, is generally aimed at adults, with the exception of children and those who are unable to care for themselves, and Ladolph's celibactic tendencies are related to his fanatical and devout beliefs.

There is a kind of celibacy that is derived from religious teachings, because religion emphasizes spirituality and calls immoral sexual behavior "sin", such as the so-called "fornication" in Buddhism, and like the pure doctrine of Christ, the religious practitioners of the church should be celibate, with the church as their home and God as love.

But even with the promise of heaven or the horrors of hell, ascetic religious tenets can hardly restrain human desires, as the widely circulated story of the green goose illustrates. According to statistics, the life expectancy of monks and clergy is lower than the social average, and abstinence may cause them to endure more suffering, and only a few so-called enlightened saints will feel the joy of liberation and transcendent freedom from celibacy.

Celibacy is similar to the celibacy of religious believers in that it maintains the transcendence of the spirit over physical desires out of spiritual beliefs, but in that celibacy does not suppress physical desires, but because it understands the mechanism of physiological desires, it forgets and ultimately seeks to use biotechnology to remove the genes of physiological desires.

The fact that the devotional of sexual pleasure for the sake of faith by the pious Christians somewhat reflects the wishful thinking of the prophets of the time, although this is only understood by non-believers. Celibacy, on the other hand, is categorically rejected by the discovery of the inhumanity of this physiological pleasure, for the sake of human freedom and human consciousness.

Think about the history of Ladolph. Morality. Normandy's untimely death was also directly related to his celibactic tendencies.

With this in mind, William once again thought about his strategy of exterminating the rebels in England.

Although William was very proud in front of Ladolph and did not take the three most powerful rebels in the slightest, he actually attached great importance to the most powerful rebels of these three parties.

Now the Earl of Cornwall, Edric and Grufiz, Tostig. Godwinson did not pose a threat to William because they lived in the western peninsula of England, Mercia and Wales and the border, and East Anglia and Lincolnshire, which were not adjacent to each other and were separated by William's possessions.

In this way, these three parties could not unite against William, and their threat to the Normans was very limited.

Despite this, it was very difficult to destroy all three of them, either because they had the advantage of geography, they had enough supplies and castles to rely on, and they had a large fleet like Tostig, which could be attacked and defended.

After thinking about it for a long time, William came up with a strategy that was to concentrate all his strength, break them one by one, concentrate all his forces, deal with the easier side first, and then point the finger at the other.

As long as William acted quickly, he could have broken them down before they could react.

Before he could, however, he needed to clean up the small rebel army in the counties of the Duchy of Wessex, his direct territory.

Most of these small rebels were led by low-ranking nobles such as barons and Sain below the earl, and because there was no prestige leader, they were in a state of scattered sand, and there was no threat to William.

But William couldn't just let them go, because the rebels would devour each other and eventually form a rebel force that threatened the rest of the world.

At the same time, small rebel forces scattered throughout the territory will also threaten the security of the territory and contain the power of the Normans, so that the Normans have to station a large number of troops in the territory to avoid invading.

William summoned all the noble generals to the military council, especially the Norman barons and nobles of England, in order to discuss with them how to clear the small rebel forces in these territories.

......

The lineup of nobles attending this meeting was very large, including more than 30 vassals, including seven dukes and six earls, including 18 barons in England and 8 barons from the Norman kingdom who followed William.

These nobles were all direct vassals of William, and the fiefdoms under their jurisdiction were not counted.
