The Irish Royal Guards had just boarded the ship, and a strong wind blew on the sea. It seemed that the weather was not favorable to this voyage. William walked into the cabin wearing a gorgeous dress that was rushed to work, and watched the leprechauns carrying boxes after boxes. The treasure was put into the cabin.
William, who had just ascended the throne, handed over the power of national governance to the Irish version of the Parliament of Wise Men. The Irish bishop served as the president of the Parliament and the Irish nobles presided over the national affairs of Ireland.
As king, William had no queen, no sons, and no brothers. Therefore, he could only hand over the state power to the Irish nobles, especially the archbishop of Ireland.
Although William did not remember the name of the archbishop, because St. Patrick personally crowned William, the Church of Ireland and many clergy became the basis for supporting William's rule.
In the history of Europe, there are many emperors and priests who are close to the king. They hold great power and are majestic, as if they are the embodiment of imperial power. The most famous one is the French Cardinal Richelieu. He and his students served as the prime minister of France before and after Louis XIV. Power is overwhelming.
In William's opinion, it may be that the archbishops themselves are members of the church, and at the same time they have no descendants, which is somewhat similar to the eunuchs in charge of the Eastern palaces.
When Richelieu wore a red robe and held a priesthood, his base was the church, and he was also suppressed by the Vatican Pope, so there was no possibility of rebellion.
Even if the Irish nobles want to rebel when he leaves Ireland, he is not afraid, and even looks forward to making them rebel.
William has an army of three thousand leprechauns that are completely loyal to him. Although they cannot be expected to go abroad to fight the Duke of Normans, they are more than enough to suppress the Irish nobles. It is absolutely possible to be submissive in the face of the Norman Duke, and to strike hard in the face of the Irish nobles.
Anyway, they have no interest in the world, so they are most suitable as sharp knives in his hands. As long as they dare to rebel, William and his army can take the opportunity to confiscate the land of the nobles and take back their titles.
In the original history, the Duke of Normandy landed in England and led his Norman army to encircle the territory. He did much more to the English nobles who resisted him in the past than William imagined. Among them, the punishment of the British nobles was in It was recorded in the history books of later generations as the "Doomsday Judgment."
Because of the Duke of Norman's military strength, William had no intention of attacking the Irish nobles and focusing on farming. After all, the Duke of Norman was a greater threat than these nobles.
He still knew who was the main contradiction and who was the secondary contradiction. No matter how unbearable the Irish nobles were, they were still the ones William needed to unite with.
The wind blew on the sea, lightning thundered in the sky, and the wind roared. The originally sunny sky suddenly became gloomy, and it looked like it was going to rain heavily.
The storm was really unpleasant. William saw the captain he had recruited walking towards him and suggested that he not set sail today.
Dark clouds are hovering in the sky, and the gloomy weather is sweeping across the entire sky. Looking ahead, it is like Poseidon waving his trident and making waves. The insignificance of human beings seems to be just an aftermath under the power of nature. Bury everyone.
What a daunting sight, even the warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles can't help but feel weak in their thighs when they see it, and the courage in their hearts will be frozen and dissolved.
"Your Majesty, retreat."
"Your Majesty the King, let's set off again tomorrow!"
"Your Majesty the King, we must get to the shore quickly or it will be too late."
The soldiers ran over to persuade him, and there were also several Druids who had surrendered to him. They were wise men in Ireland and were proficient in Irish law, writing and magic. On the side were the clergy of the Church of Ireland. , they were proficient in Latin, the national common language of this era.
"I smell the divine power."
"Yes, that's right, it's the breath of a pagan god."
Strong winds and huge waves rolled up on the sea, and both the Druids and the Catholic priests all said in unison, strange
If the relationship between believers was on the European continent, it would definitely be incompatible, and the Heretic Tribunal would be dispatched in full force. However, in Ireland, a poor land with high mountains and far away emperors, the relationship between the two is not as tense as on the European continent. , on the contrary, the relationship between them is quite harmonious, which is a great spectacle.
Needless to say, I know it too.
William thought to himself, without any panic expression on his face. He followed King Arthur's will and abandoned his fiancée Lily, which had completely offended the Celtic gods of Ireland. It would be okay if he did not leave Ireland. After all, according to this According to the rules of the world, his rank is fourth level, and he is on the same level as these pagan gods. Not only is he not afraid of them, but he can also suppress them.
However, once you go to sea and leave the land of Ireland, the so-called king's authority has no effect. The so-called authority is essentially the power of the master. The so-called royal power is the power of the king. The basis for the exercise of royal power lies in the authority.
"Don't worry, keep setting sail. We must get to Hamburg, Germany as soon as possible."
William waved his hand and said without fear. When he saw the hesitant sailors, he thought they did not hear his order clearly, so he said it a second time.
Under the panicked expressions of the sailors, William pulled out the Sword in the Stone and said sternly, "I am your monarch, this time I am on the ship with you, my sword is with you, and I am with you." , I am not afraid yet, what are you afraid of? Everything is just a test from God to us."
William said, holding the sword in the stone high, and the huge waves on the sea swept towards the bow of the ship where William was sitting. The unbridled divine power controlled the huge waves and wanted to submerge the ship in one fell swoop. Look, Goddess Eliu is no longer the only one here to hate her.
However, he was not afraid at this time. He neither wanted to use the power of the twelve talismans, nor did he intend to transform into a red dragon.
An equally huge wind wave was about to engulf all of them, but was blown away by another powerful wave. The diverted huge wave even directly destroyed the nearby stone pillars. Everyone watched all this with trembling, only feeling that the aftermath My back felt cold, just now they were almost all swallowed up by the wind and waves.
If I remember correctly, just a few days ago, just like William, Duke of Normandy, France's expedition to England, Conan, Duke of Brittany in France, also led his army to sail out to prepare for an expedition to England. However, he was struck by wind and waves on the way. Devour.
Although I don't think my trip here will be so unlucky, the power of natural disasters caused by wind and waves still makes people shudder.
Under William's order, the ship set sail and the fleet sailed forward in an orderly manner until the sun set and the stars shone in the sky. The wind had not stopped yet, but it was different from the one just now. The wind at this time had been moving in the direction they were going. constant.
This calm situation is simply too abnormal for people who go to sea all year round.
"So this is your confidence, His Majesty the King!"
A seagull fell from the sky and landed on the ship, transforming into a man in a white robe. He paid a slight salute to William, obviously understanding everything.
Morgan Le Fay, who has been trapped, has already raised the stakes. It was her side that helped William just now.
"Hello, respected Archmage, Mr. Merlin, I would like to extend the same high respect to you here."
William bent slightly and gave him a druidic courtesy.
The person in front of him is King Arthur's national advisor, Great Yingzhu Shimei Zhongtang.
