William of Normandy did not primarily rely on fyrd soldiers for his army during the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. The fyrd was a type of militia composed of local Anglo-Saxon men called to arms; however, William's forces were mainly composed of professional soldiers, including knights and mercenaries.
