Where is the evidence that the "common people" died for the bible? Most of them couldn't even read it.

Post 791 was your post, not Hans Blaster's. Your strawman is pretending @Hans Blaster claimed "convert or die".

Hebrews 11:36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
38 ( Of whom the world was not worthy: ) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
Daniel 1:3 And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring certain of the children of Israel, and of the king's seed, and of the princes;Hans Blaster said:
4 Children in whom was no blemish, but well favoured, and skilful in all wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the king's palace, and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans.

Massacre of Verden - Wikipedia
The Massacre of Verden was an event during the Saxon Wars where the Frankish king Charlemagne ordered the death of 4,500 Saxons in October 782.
...
He continues: "the most likely inspiration for the mass execution of Verden was the Bible", Charlemagne desiring "to act like a true King of Israel", citing the biblical tale of the total extermination of the Amalekites and the conquest of the Moabites by David. Barbero further poi

Indeed. Forced conversion has been a blunt tool used by Christianity for nearly its entire history.

Charlemagne was a wolf in sheep's clothing.
"In 529, Justinian I issued an edict which made conversion compulsory and required the baptism of all infants (CI 1.11.10). Charlemagne improved on this; in the Saxon Capitulary of the 780s he encouraged the Christianization of Saxony by making it a capital offence to refuse to be baptized (Fletcher 1997:215). In the area of financial support there was also compulsion. The admonitions to tithe, which had notably been absent in the pre-Christendom church (e.g., Irenaeus, Demonstration 96), appeared in the late fourth century. By the sixth century the admonitions became demands, and tithing became compulsory ; the second council of Mâcon (585) required Christians in Gaul, on pain of excommunication, to pay a tenth of their harvest and earnings to support the church (Kreider 1995:43n). Until its abolition, which in many countries took place quite recently, the compulsory tithe was a source of continual aggravation in the life in Christendom (Murray 2000)."

Yup -- force them to convert and pay tithes.
1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Forced conversion may be done in the name of Christianity, but it is done in spite of the Bible; not with respect to It.

I'm not obligated to accept Charlemagne as a brother in Christ. If you consider that a "No True Scotsman Fallacy," that's your prerogative.

Unless I'm mistaken, Charlemagne was a Frenchman, not a Scotsman.
So yes, he was not a true Scotsman.

So's this:
Matthew 10:14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
No matter what you claim.

What's up with this?
I'm agreeing with you: Charles Martel was not a true Scotsman.
