"Duke William has committed the crime of treason and rebellion. I hereby sentence you to death in accordance with the "Code of Charles V of Spain" and execute it immediately!"
¡°I will deprive you of your title of Duke of the Netherlands, all territories will be nationalized, your family property will be confiscated, and the five ethnic groups will be exiled to West Africa!¡±
Alfred looked at Duke William in front of him and coldly announced his punishment.
This set of beheadings, exiles, confiscated homes, and deprivation of noble titles is undoubtedly a copy of the criminal law of the Ming Empire.
The "Code of Spanish Charles V" was also formulated under the auspices of Alfred and based on many laws of the Ming Empire.

The core idea is to consolidate imperial power and strengthen centralization, so as to establish a powerful Spanish empire.
Alfred, Torres, Perlos and other Spanish insightful people who returned from studying in the Ming Empire believe that a powerful empire similar to the Ming Empire will be established in Europe.
Then we must learn Eastern thinking and philosophy, learn Eastern systems, and establish a highly centralized and powerful empire. Only in this way can we concentrate our efforts on doing big things, become stronger quickly, and always maintain unity.
So we also learned from the Ming Empire in many aspects. We also learned from the Ming Empire in terms of punishing prisoners.
"no no!"
"I am willing to be loyal to Charles V, I am willing to be loyal to Charles V!"
Hearing the punishment imposed on him, Duke William couldn't help but collapse.
¡°It¡¯s okay if I die. The title inherited from this era is gone, the territory is gone, the huge property is gone, and even my family will be exiled to the West African colony.
In the West African colonies, where were the people?
It is said that wherever diseases are rampant, mosquitoes as big as mosquitoes can kill people directly. After being exiled, it will really be over in the future.
"late!"
Alfred said coldly, and then gave an order, and soon soldiers escorted Duke William to the guillotine. With a flash of cold light, a huge head flew away, and the history of the Duke of the Netherlands was completely Finish.
Starting from Duke William, nobles were sent to the guillotine one by one. Their titles were stripped, their territories confiscated, their property confiscated, and their families exiled.
For the first time, European nobles enjoyed the treatment of the nobles in the East.
In the past, nobles were nobles. Even if something happened or made a mistake, they were still nobles. They had noble status and noble blood. They were existences that the poor could never look up to.
But now, the Spaniards have told everyone with the blood of a lot of nobles that all this has changed.
"Roben, during the process of suppressing the rebellion, he captured the rebellious Duke William. He will be promoted to the third level and will receive a reward of ten thousand taels of silver!"
"Now, on behalf of Emperor Charles V, I officially confer you the title of Viscount and a fief of five thousand acres of land!"
There are punishments and rewards. After killing a group of nobles in Rotterdam and the Netherlands, Alfred began to reward some people who had made merit this time, especially some locals.
As Alfred called out Robben's name, a soldier stood up tremblingly.
Robben was actually very scared. He was afraid that the Spaniard would cross the river and burn down the bridge, and he was also afraid of being despised. After all, he was the one who took the lead in tying up Duke William.
But when he heard that he had been made a viscount, with a fiefdom of 5,000 acres, and a reward of 10,000 taels of silver, he couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly in disbelief.
You must know that Luo Ben¡¯s ancestors have been ordinary farmers for generations, and they have never been related to the nobles.
But now, he has been made a viscount. Although this title ranks second to last among the noble titles, it is also a title of the nobles.
What's more, there are 5,000 acres of fiefdom, promotion, and a reward of ten thousand taels of silver. These are all real benefits. For Robben, this is simply a pie in the sky. He will be directly replaced. The whole person was stunned.
"Robben, you still haven't expressed your gratitude to the great Emperor Charles V!"
Looking at the fainting Robben, Alfred quickly reminded him.
"Yes Yes!"
"Thank you to the great Emperor Charles V, thank you to the great Emperor! I am willing to be loyal to you forever!"
Robben knelt on the ground? was in the hands of the Spanish Empire.
But what the Spanish did in the lowlands further stimulated these ancient nobles in Europe, especially the nobles of the Holy Roman Empire.
At this moment, each of them felt on pins and needles, and had a clear premonition that if the Spaniards were allowed to come to their own place, they would be like the nobles of the Netherlands.
Being sent to the guillotine, stripped of their noble title, abolished their territory, exiled their family, and confiscated their property, this is absolutely unacceptable to them.
What the Spaniards did in the Netherlands seriously violated the aristocratic system and tradition that Europe has always followed.
Suddenly, the nobles of the Holy Roman Empire began to gather a large number of troops with the same hatred and began to attack the lowland areas aggressively.
They want to expel the barbaric rule of the Spanish, restore the ancient aristocratic system, and maintain the glory and dignity of the nobility.
At the same time, France, England and the Holy See were also in contact and jointly launched an attack on Spain.
