Fitz Osborne's Gambot, as Bold as It Was, Had Failed

The seneschal told william that there was no danger that these men would retreat from no service that he could ask of them. He then quickly added that he himself would provide full 60 ships, fully furnished with fighting men,. The hall full of nobles exploded. They could hardly believe what they were hearing. Instead of voicing their concerns, suddenly fitz osborne was trying to lock them into providing double the required fighting force. Are you foking, kidding me? And these barons weren't fools. If the duke got away with this once, he would definitely try it again. Without a clear assent to duke william's plan, the assembly had to be disbanded.
