What if instead of the failed invasion of Akavir of the 2E 289 Emperor Uriel Septim the V launched an invasion of England right after the Battle of Hastings in 1066?

The invasion force will be comprised of the same invasion force that invaded Akavir. The V, VII, X and XIV Legions is the initial invading force. The IX and XVII Legion will follow as reinforcements once the beachhead is secured. In raw manpower, these four legions alone equaled slightly over 21,600 fighting men, with 10,800 reinforcements from the IX and XVII Legions. This would be a total of 32,400 fighting men not counting support staff, battlemages, etc.

The invasion force will be landing at Pevensey itself quickly taking over the repurposed fort and would proceed to launch operations.

Also, the Emperor himself is leading the invasion.

How would William the Conquerer react? How would the world react? How would Imperial Rule change the life of a regular Anglo-Saxon? I don't really want this to be a who would win thread instead I want to see how two completely different worlds clash with one another in terms of culture.
