Then , in a minor 1 skirmish in central Wales ,  Llewellyn was killed by an anonymous 2 English  spearman.The final annihilation of resistance took another six months before the King could claim Wales to be pacified 3. However, the subjugation 4 of Wales was far more subtle than the surgical 5 application of brute 6 force. Edward had the chilling, uncannily-modern knowledge that to break your enemy you must fist strip him of his cultural identity. Before this place became called Conway by the English, it was Aberconwy. It was a monastery 7 that housed the tomb of the most powerful of odermath Princes and was home to a sacred relic 8 that the Welsh believed to be a piece of the true Cross.

但随后在威尔士中部的一次小规模战斗中,卢埃林殒命于一位无名的英格兰士兵矛下,抵抗又持续了六个月才得以平息。国王宣布威尔士的叛乱已被平定,但是对威尔士的彻底征服远比武力占领复杂微妙得多。爱德华在这方面有着让人不寒而栗的超前意识,要瓦解敌人必须首先动摇其民族认同感。在被英格兰人改名为康威前这里被称为阿拜康威。这座修道院里安葬着威尔士最有权势的王子们,这里也是被威尔士人视为真十字架残片的供奉地。[真十字架即耶稣受难十字架]
