The son is standing by her side, maybe Ella also feels that her mother is already a **** with nothing but an empty shell.
The facts are similar. Biyuni possesses this noble woman. He is as strong as a bull and has completely conquered this woman's mind. He took it as something to show off, even if many people thought it was unnecessary.
With his son by his side, Ernred's nervous heart finally calmed down a bit.
"As you can see, I speak my words." Rurik said solemnly: "Now, let's start our peace talks. Ernred, you should understand that the so-called opportunity for peace talks is given to you by our military. You You only have the right to accept it, and you have no right to refuse."
"Why? This is unreasonable. If so, it won’t be considered as peace talks. At least I have the power to put forward terms. I am still the king of Northumbria. Also, the matter of your self-reliance as kings, the whole of Britain, no kingdom Will admit it."
Rurik was quite surprised, afraid that this guy suddenly got up when he saw his prince alive?
"Why do we need their recognition. We are all a group of weak sheep." Rurik paused again, stood up and stuck his head out: "You are all weak countries, and weak countries have no diplomacy. And the strong don't need it. Diplomacy. Do you speak Latin?"
"Latin?" Erinred was taken aback, he couldn't believe that the word "Latin" would come out of a barbarian boy.
"Vici! Vidi! Veni!" Rurik blurted out without a moment's hesitation
At least this phrase is known to Ernred. He suddenly broke out in a sweat and said: "You really speak Latin. You killed my bishop of York, and it looks like you killed all the priests. If the bishop Not dead, he will communicate with you in Latin."
Rurik nodded: "It's true that my people are impulsive. Just like Caesar is decisive, does our army have to go through the permission of your island and kingdoms? We attacked you not because Northumbria is the most decisive. The weak, it's all because you are the closest to our hometown."
"Huh? Your goal is to conquer the entire island?"
"Perhaps." Rurik shrugged, then asked again: "Do you know history?"
"..."
"A long time ago, we were a family. You left three hundred years ago, and we have been staying in your homeland. Since you can land on the island in a small boat, we now have a big boat. Isn’t it easy to come here? But we do It has become different. You have betrayed Odin and converted to the faith of the Romans, and we still believe in Odin."
What Rurik said is of course true. Unless the Saxons, Anglo and Jutes crossed the sea on a large scale, the remaining Jutland peninsula would not be filled with Danes.
Einred didn't know this. He had never experienced any historical education. He had only hearsay about the past, and now he regards what Rurik said as a kind of **** to find the legitimacy of the occupation.
Einred simply yelled: "Talk about your purpose. No matter what our relationship is, we are still in a state of war. Let's talk about how you want to end this dispute, and what do you want to give Northumbria? The end."
"Okay! Listen to our terms now. We want all the land east of the River Us, the land and towns near Bamburgh and Lindisfarne, and Edinburgh. Everyone in this area will Become our servant. I want you to provide us with no less than three million Roman pounds of wheat tribute each year, and then provide us with an additional 5,000 young women."
Hearing it, Ernred stood up furiously: "This is a great shame! You are going to split half of my country!"
"But, do you have a choice?" Rurik said coldly.
Yup! The truth is so cruel.
Einred sat down again and said coldly: "My army has fled, and Earl Roydis was killed in battle. They may think I am also dead. Soon, many Earls will support Osbert. Succession to the throne will continue to fight with you. Even if you own the land mentioned above, the battle will not stop. They will not accept this humiliation."
"Then kill them. Wait a minute, you just mentioned a person's name?!"
Ernred did not hesitate to explain the existence of a man named Osbot, and even claimed that if his family is extinct, that man will naturally inherit the throne. "That's a man who will fight until the last soldier. Either you kill him or even his men, or the war will never stop."
"Really? We still have a large army in Bamburgh." Rurik's face was arrogant, and he was naturally more cautious.
"The man and his army are in the north, and many of the northern territories you ask for belong to him. Even if I make a promise, he..."
"Then we have to fight."
As for the life and death of Osbot and his family, Ernred doesn’t care. Anyway, that family would like to extinct his heirs to inherit the throne. In peacetime, apart from controlling Edinburgh and Bamburgh, most of the rest of the northern land is Osbo Special family, and even support the noble lords of their family.
In addition, there is also the abominable Strathclyde problem. To the northwest of the country is a large group of Picts who surrender to the kingdom. Once the kingdom's strength is weakened, the locals will rebel.
Einred thought for a while, and made some calculations in his mind about the gains and losses after the choice. If this group of Vikings must be so, they also succeeded in destroying Osbot in the north, and then Strathclyde rebelled. Isn't it only a quarter of the territory belonging to Northumbria?
The army of Vikings is going to take Penicia and Deira (the birthplace of Northumbria) as their own! Northumbria, once the overlord of Britain, was going to shrink to the west of the Us River, and the last territory of the kingdom was the homeland of Regid and Emit.
The previous kings conquered the kingdoms of Regid and Emit established by the British, and the last Strathclyde swore to surrender. Northumbria ruled East Anglia and Mercia all the way through the army's power south, and the Kingdom of Kent also surrendered to its princes. The prosperity of the past is gone, and the great kingdom actually wants to stay in a small place to survive?
Ernred had no choice, but he had to make the final struggle, at least to fight for a little power for the final kingdom, so as not to be bullied by the Vikings too badly.
He initially agreed with Rurik's request for the territory, but he really didn't want to give it to the food and women.
"Give you three million pounds of wheat per year. It is difficult for me to produce. Five thousand women, if you give it to you, my kingdom will die! You have taken the last young woman in my domain, and soon even The farm clothes for farming will no longer exist! Don't you have any hands and feet? You can only raise the sword of murder, but cannot raise the draft of hoeing?"
When he asked, Rurik felt that he was asking too much. Northumbria is not a populous country until now, and once again being divided into a large territory, plundering a large amount of wheat from the hands of the remaining people, and then pulling away a group of women, this kingdom is not in name.
Concession is possible, but you must make a decent concession.
"But we have to get five thousand young women. I can promise not to deprive them of their faith. No matter what the method is, you have to give us three million pounds of wheat every year and an additional five thousand young women. You just have to do At this point, we can guarantee the safety of your final power."
"This! You are embarrassing me, knowing that I can't finish it now."
Rurik narrowed his eyes slightly: "If you can't finish it, then don't negotiate. Kill you and your son, and we will directly occupy the entire Northumbria."
"Wait!" Einred waved his hand immediately: "I really can't get so many women, and letting me hand them over is a betrayal of my faith and is bound to go to hell. However, Maizi, I You can work hard."
Of course, what Rurik wanted most was wheat, and in the future, he might also bring the Balmerks from the fleet and colonial farms to buy it in the future. Asking for 3 million pounds of wheat is really a huge amount. As long as Northumbria is willing to take it out, it means that this shrinking kingdom in the future has lost its potential for war.
How can they accumulate strength by making all the surplus food as a tribute?
Einred also noticed that this blond Ruriek seemed to be young, so how could his mind be as vicious as Satan? What the Vikings wanted was not a peace treaty, but a truce treaty that lasted for several years. However, how can I be able to expel them now?
Unless you do...
Einred sighed and said: "I can be the king of a small country, and I can cooperate with you, but I want you to swear that I will not attack me again after I do. Northumbria is too much. We are weak. Attacking us will not get any more treasures. We can only add killings. It is not good for you to kill potential servants. I want to warn you not to feel that you can live in peace in your new territory."
"Hey? Is it a threat from the neighboring kingdoms?" Rurik asked knowingly.
"Exactly! As you know, I have been leading the army to confront the Mercia army in the south. Once they learn of the decline of my kingdom, they will invade on a large scale. They are stronger than my Northumbria, with a milder climate. Wheat is high-yield. There is a large population, there are a lot of young women you desire, and there are mountains of gold and silver. Why must you desperately looting the bitter cold land here, you have incomparable fighting power, why not go to war against Mesiah? If you don’t go to war, they will take the initiative to attack."
Things have become complicated.
Although Paul, the food officer, has been acting as an interpreter, translating the negotiations between Rurik and Einred into Gnostic and telling the audience, everyone can basically understand it. After Einred’s remarks, he became supportive. Hesitate.
Rurik had to think about it, after all, the war against Messia was not his original intention, at least not in this year's plan.
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Einred immediately seriously suggested: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! The king of Mercia is called Wigraf, and he and his army are just south of the Don River, facing the border between our two countries. Wait a minute! In fact, it is facing off across the river with your new kingdom! This is not the war between Northumbria and Mercia, but the war between you and Mercia. You can take the opportunity to kill their king and take a large piece of riches. territory."
A new war?
To be honest, Rurik’s heart moved, only because Einred’s continued description illustrates a fact that is very beneficial to the Rossbalmerk coalition forces, that is, the coalition fleet can go upstream along the Don River and kill directly. When he arrived at Dole Village, he was caught off guard to kill the Mesiah, and from then on there was a major strategic opportunity to invade and plunder south.
Now that the entire island has just completed the wheat harvest, this Ernred also said that the Messiah is a mixture of wheat and oats, and it is mainly because of the meal problem that Rurik's heart is moved.
Rürik had to discuss with Magnuth and others urgently. The lengthy explanation was meaningless. As long as the new battle can reap even greater benefits, Magnuth and Bijuni would both beat the thighs. , Is to immediately fight to the death with Mercia, to personally cut down the untimely past Wigraf.
Their attitude is so determined that Rurik is not good at saying anything. Brothers are bold, have new goals, and the army is eager to reap new benefits after the new war, so let's continue fighting.
The peace talks with the king of Northumbria were nothing to talk about. After all, Ernred was not the one who died the king, nor the righteous generation.
This person doesn't want to be a servile courtier, so don't be a courtier. It's okay to be a king of a small country and spend his life temporarily in this increasingly magnificent Viking era.
A kingdom of York controlled by the Balmerk Vikings was born. Einred admitted that this powerful kingdom built on his own land by despicable outsiders was clearly his own palace, and he honored the old man Mag. Nut is the "great king", which is the original meaning of the term "Magnut", and it also recognizes Bijuni as the crown prince of the Kingdom of York.
The question of faith is set aside for the time being, or the so-called question of faith is not a problem at all. In the face of sudden destruction, it is the best choice for your own family to have such a result. At least his family still retains the fire of Ella, which has the possibility of revenge, even if the possibility is very slim.
Five thousand young women, Erinred could not provide, the annual supply of 300 pounds of wheat, through squeezing the farmers in the remaining territories, and taking advantage of the violence of the Vikings to abduct local farmers in the war against Messia, To save the army's expenditure, he gritted his teeth and realized that he could do it well.
The peace talks ended only on the day of the riverside battle, before the warmth of the dead bodies dissipated. The rapid development of the matter made Erinred feel that this was a nightmare.
The next day, the dream woke up. He woke up from the house that was the servant’s living room with his son in his arms, knowing that all this was not a dream, but a reality that was worse than a nightmare.
Ella was ignorant and ignorant. The young boy yelled at his father and mother was a fool. He was bullied by the bald man at will and he was helpless.
Einred first gave his son a slap, and when he was crying, he yelled: "Don't cry! You are a man! Remember this pain! Remember the humiliation of our kingdom. When I die, you will be the king of the kingdom. . Don’t be arrogant for a woman, you must find a way to help our kingdom. One day, you will expel the Vikings who invaded our territory."
Ella covered her face with tears and nodded ignorantly.
Einred stood up, he still had to personally sign a formal peace treaty for yesterday's peace talks.
Rurik, the cub of Rose actually thought of texting the treaty, do their barbarians have words? Wait a minute. That **** can speak Latin, and maybe he would write documents in Latin. Isn’t that true...
The facts are as Einred expected.
A piece of parchment uncovered from the warehouse of the Kingdom was cut into three parts, with three scripts on it, namely the Luen alphabet in the Norse language, the Saxon Northumbrian dialect written in the Latin alphabet, and the written Latin. Written text of the treaty.
Rurik actually understood written Latin, as well as colloquial Latin, which really surprised Einred further.
"Non-aggression Treaty between the Kingdom of York and the Duchy of Ross and the Kingdom of Northumbria"
Just as the Saxons who immigrated to Britain are no longer Saxons, the Balmerks who decided to immigrate to Britain on a large scale must gradually become different from the natives. "The Kingdom of York", this is Magnuth's new name for the land where the immigrants live, and he himself is the king of the Viking Kingdom of York.
As for the name of the treaty, it is purely an evil taste of Rurik.
In other words, the name of the treaty already implies its results. This is just a brief armistice treaty. No one can stop the expansion of Vikings from all walks of life. This is the trend of the entire era! The Kingdom of York will tear up this treaty and devour Britain with a stronger Viking army. And the Viking Danes across the sea, they can never be spectators.
As long as Magnuth or his successor decides to tear up the treaty, Ross, as a side of the alliance, will naturally send troops to help.
Ernred signed his name with a quill pen.
Rurik signed his signature in Latin, and his skillful gesture of holding a pen shocked Einred. In addition, the posture of this writing is so regular, it is simply better at writing than the copywriter.
At least this boy is by no means a barbarian.
In contrast, Magnut grasped the quill with all his fingers, just like grasping the hilt of a sword, and "engraved" his name on the three pieces of text with simple vertical lines, which is scribbled. all.
After signing this document that humiliated the country, Ernred was sweaty, and he sat down and almost collapsed.
Looking back at the Vikings, everyone is not ecstatic.
The Russian Army and the Balmerk Army are very busy. Signing this treaty is tantamount to stating that the army is about to temporarily withdraw from York. Turning around, it immediately forms a coalition with the remaining Northumbria troops that Einred can control. Enred is a sacrilegious army that will kill the Messiah army and its king by surprise.
This has nothing to do with faith. When the treaty was signed, Ernred felt that he would go to **** after death. He didn't care anymore, at least the fire of revenge was given to his son Ella.
He needs a stable external environment to accumulate strength, and he is more entangled in the anger against King Mercia in the past, and he is happy to see the Viking army teach them well.
He is standing on the wall, and now he is a human being.
The big ships were still parked on the river, and the granary in York City had been emptied, and all of them were taken by the cub Rürich. Einred is really strange. All the news about the Vikings came to capture gold, silver and population. The so-called Balmerks of the Kingdom of York did this. Why are the Ross people only interested in wheat?
He saw those Vikings washing their blood-stained robes on the banks of the Uth, and he couldn't help sighing that the robes that were once stained with the blood of the Northumbrians would eventually be covered with the blood of the Messiaes.
The Messiah King Wiglav will pay a terrible price for his provocation at the wrong time, and even perish his country.
Subconsciously, Ernred with his broken arm hoped to insult his Viking army to attack Messiah. "Only the world in which Northumbria is hurt" is unreasonable! Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, like a crazy fool...

As long as Magnuth or his successor decides to tear up the treaty, Ross, as a side of the alliance, will naturally send troops to help.
Ernred signed his name with a quill pen.
Rurik signed his signature in Latin, and his skillful gesture of holding a pen shocked Einred. In addition, the posture of this writing is so regular, it is simply better at writing than the copywriter.
At least this boy is by no means a barbarian.
In contrast, Magnut grasped the quill with all his fingers, just like grasping the hilt of a sword, and "engraved" his name on the three pieces of text with simple vertical lines, which is scribbled. all.
After signing this document that humiliated the country, Ernred was sweaty, and he sat down and almost collapsed.
Looking back at the Vikings, everyone is not ecstatic.
The Russian Army and the Balmerk Army are very busy. Signing this treaty is tantamount to stating that the army is about to temporarily withdraw from York. Turning around, it immediately forms a coalition with the remaining Northumbria troops that Einred can control. Enred is a sacrilegious army that will kill the Messiah army and its king by surprise.
This has nothing to do with faith. When the treaty was signed, Ernred felt that he would go to **** after death. He didn't care anymore, at least the fire of revenge was given to his son Ella.
He needs a stable external environment to accumulate strength, and he is more entangled in the anger against King Mercia in the past, and he is happy to see the Viking army teach them well.
He is standing on the wall, and now he is a human being.
The big ships were still parked on the river, and the granary in York City had been emptied, and all of them were taken by the cub Rürich. Einred is really strange. All the news about the Vikings came to capture gold, silver and population. The so-called Balmerks of the Kingdom of York did this. Why are the Ross people only interested in wheat?
He saw those Vikings washing their blood-stained robes on the banks of the Uth, and he couldn't help sighing that the robes that were once stained with the blood of the Northumbrians would eventually be covered with the blood of the Messiaes.
The Messiah King Wiglav will pay a terrible price for his provocation at the wrong time, and even perish his country.
Subconsciously, Ernred with his broken arm hoped to insult his Viking army to attack Messiah. "Only the world in which Northumbria is hurt" is unreasonable! Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, like a crazy fool...
, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!The son is standing by her side, maybe Ella also feels that her mother is already a **** with nothing but an empty shell.The facts are similar. Biyuni possesses this noble woman. He is as strong as a bull and has completely conquered this woman's mind. He took it as something to show off, even if many people thought it was unnecessary.With his son by his side, Ernred's nervous heart finally calmed down a bit."As you can see, I speak my words." Rurik said solemnly: "Now, let's start our peace talks. Ernred, you should understand that the so-called opportunity for peace talks is given to you by our military. You You only have the right to accept it, and you have no right to refuse.""Why? This is unreasonable. If so, it won't be considered as peace talks. At least I have the power to put forward terms. I am still the king of Northumbria. Also, the matter of your self-reliance as kings, the whole of Britain, no kingdom Will admit it."Rurik was quite surprised, afraid that this guy suddenly got up when he saw his prince alive?"Why do we need their recognition. We are all a group of weak sheep." Rurik paused again, stood up and stuck his head out: "You are all weak countries, and weak countries have no diplomacy. And the strong don't need it. Diplomacy. Do you speak Latin?""Latin?" Erinred was taken aback, he couldn't believe that the word "Latin" would come out of a barbarian boy."Vici! Vidi! Veni!" Rurik blurted out without a moment's hesitationAt least this phrase is known to Ernred. He suddenly broke out in a sweat and said: "You really speak Latin. You killed my bishop of York, and it looks like you killed all the priests. If the bishop Not dead, he will communicate with you in Latin."Rurik nodded: "It's true that my people are impulsive. Just like Caesar is decisive, does our army have to go through the permission of your island and kingdoms? We attacked you not because Northumbria is the most decisive. The weak, it's all because you are the closest to our hometown.""Huh? Your goal is to conquer the entire island?""Perhaps." Rurik shrugged, then asked again: "Do you know history?""...""A long time ago, we were a family. You left three hundred years ago, and we have been staying in your homeland. Since you can land on the island in a small boat, we now have a big boat. Isn't it easy to come here? But we do It has become different. You have betrayed Odin and converted to the faith of the Romans, and we still believe in Odin."What Rurik said is of course true. Unless the Saxons, Anglo and Jutes crossed the sea on a large scale, the remaining Jutland peninsula would not be filled with Danes.Einred didn't know this. He had never experienced any historical education. He had only hearsay about the past, and now he regards what Rurik said as a kind of **** to find the legitimacy of the occupation.Einred simply yelled: "Talk about your purpose. No matter what our relationship is, we are still in a state of war. Let's talk about how you want to end this dispute, and what do you want to give Northumbria? The end.""Okay! Listen to our terms now. We want all the land east of the River Us, the land and towns near Bamburgh and Lindisfarne, and Edinburgh. Everyone in this area will Become our servant. I want you to provide us with no less than three million Roman pounds of wheat tribute each year, and then provide us with an additional 5,000 young women."Hearing it, Ernred stood up furiously: "This is a great shame! You are going to split half of my country!""But, do you have a choice?" Rurik said coldly.Yup! The truth is so cruel.Einred sat down again and said coldly: "My army has fled, and Earl Roydis was killed in battle. They may think I am also dead. Soon, many Earls will support Osbert. Succession to the throne will continue to fight with you. Even if you own the land mentioned above, the battle will not stop. They will not accept this humiliation.""Then kill them. Wait a minute, you just mentioned a person's name?!"Ernred did not hesitate to explain the existence of a man named Osbot, and even claimed that if his family is extinct, that man will naturally inherit the throne. "That's a man who will fight until the last soldier. Either you kill him or even his men, or the war will never stop.""Really? We still have a large army in Bamburgh." Rurik's face was arrogant, and he was naturally more cautious."The man and his army are in the north, and many of the northern territories you ask for belong to him. Even if I make a promise, he...""Then we have to fight."As for the life and death of Osbot and his family, Ernred doesn't care. Anyway, that family would like to extinct his heirs to inherit the throne. In peacetime, apart from controlling Edinburgh and Bamburgh, most of the rest of the northern land is Osbo Special family, and even support the noble lords of their family.In addition, there is also the abominable Strathclyde problem. To the northwest of the country is a large group of Picts who surrender to the kingdom. Once the kingdom's strength is weakened, the locals will rebel.Einred thought for a while, and made some calculations in his mind about the gains and losses after the choice. If this group of Vikings must be so, they also succeeded in destroying Osbot in the north, and then Strathclyde rebelled. Isn't it only a quarter of the territory belonging to Northumbria?The army of Vikings is going to take Penicia and Deira the birthplace of Northumbria as their own! Northumbria, once the overlord of Britain, was going to shrink to the west of the Us River, and the last territory of the kingdom was the homeland of Regid and Emit.The previous kings conquered the kingdoms of Regid and Emit established by the British, and the last Strathclyde swore to surrender. Northumbria ruled East Anglia and Mercia all the way through the army's power south, and the Kingdom of Kent also surrendered to its princes. The prosperity of the past is gone, and the great kingdom actually wants to stay in a small place to survive?Ernred had no choice, but he had to make the final struggle, at least to fight for a little power for the final kingdom, so as not to be bullied by the Vikings too badly.He initially agreed with Rurik's request for the territory, but he really didn't want to give it to the food and women."Give you three million pounds of wheat per year. It is difficult for me to produce. Five thousand women, if you give it to you, my kingdom will die! You have taken the last young woman in my domain, and soon even The farm clothes for farming will no longer exist! Don't you have any hands and feet? You can only raise the sword of murder, but cannot raise the draft of hoeing?"When he asked, Rurik felt that he was asking too much. Northumbria is not a populous country until now, and once again being divided into a large territory, plundering a large amount of wheat from the hands of the remaining people, and then pulling away a group of women, this kingdom is not in name.Concession is possible, but you must make a decent concession."But we have to get five thousand young women. I can promise not to deprive them of their faith. No matter what the method is, you have to give us three million pounds of wheat every year and an additional five thousand young women. You just have to do At this point, we can guarantee the safety of your final power.""This! You are embarrassing me, knowing that I can't finish it now."Rurik narrowed his eyes slightly: "If you can't finish it, then don't negotiate. Kill you and your son, and we will directly occupy the entire Northumbria.""Wait!" Einred waved his hand immediately: "I really can't get so many women, and letting me hand them over is a betrayal of my faith and is bound to go to hell. However, Maizi, I You can work hard."Of course, what Rurik wanted most was wheat, and in the future, he might also bring the Balmerks from the fleet and colonial farms to buy it in the future. Asking for 3 million pounds of wheat is really a huge amount. As long as Northumbria is willing to take it out, it means that this shrinking kingdom in the future has lost its potential for war.How can they accumulate strength by making all the surplus food as a tribute?Einred also noticed that this blond Ruriek seemed to be young, so how could his mind be as vicious as Satan? What the Vikings wanted was not a peace treaty, but a truce treaty that lasted for several years. However, how can I be able to expel them now?Unless you do...Einred sighed and said: "I can be the king of a small country, and I can cooperate with you, but I want you to swear that I will not attack me again after I do. Northumbria is too much. We are weak. Attacking us will not get any more treasures. We can only add killings. It is not good for you to kill potential servants. I want to warn you not to feel that you can live in peace in your new territory.""Hey? Is it a threat from the neighboring kingdoms?" Rurik asked knowingly."Exactly! As you know, I have been leading the army to confront the Mercia army in the south. Once they learn of the decline of my kingdom, they will invade on a large scale. They are stronger than my Northumbria, with a milder climate. Wheat is high-yield. There is a large population, there are a lot of young women you desire, and there are mountains of gold and silver. Why must you desperately looting the bitter cold land here, you have incomparable fighting power, why not go to war against Mesiah? If you don't go to war, they will take the initiative to attack."Things have become complicated.Although Paul, the food officer, has been acting as an interpreter, translating the negotiations between Rurik and Einred into Gnostic and telling the audience, everyone can basically understand it. After Einred's remarks, he became supportive. Hesitate.Rurik had to think about it, after all, the war against Messia was not his original intention, at least not in this year's plan.Seeing the other party's hesitation, Einred immediately seriously suggested: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! The king of Mercia is called Wigraf, and he and his army are just south of the Don River, facing the border between our two countries. Wait a minute! In fact, it is facing off across the river with your new kingdom! This is not the war between Northumbria and Mercia, but the war between you and Mercia. You can take the opportunity to kill their king and take a large piece of riches. territory."A new war?To be honest, Rurik's heart moved, only because Einred's continued description illustrates a fact that is very beneficial to the Rossbalmerk coalition forces, that is, the coalition fleet can go upstream along the Don River and kill directly. When he arrived at Dole Village, he was caught off guard to kill the Mesiah, and from then on there was a major strategic opportunity to invade and plunder south.Now that the entire island has just completed the wheat harvest, this Ernred also said that the Messiah is a mixture of wheat and oats, and it is mainly because of the meal problem that Rurik's heart is moved.Rrik had to discuss with Magnuth and others urgently. The lengthy explanation was meaningless. As long as the new battle can reap even greater benefits, Magnuth and Bijuni would both beat the thighs. , Is to immediately fight to the death with Mercia, to personally cut down the untimely past Wigraf.Their attitude is so determined that Rurik is not good at saying anything. Brothers are bold, have new goals, and the army is eager to reap new benefits after the new war, so let's continue fighting.The peace talks with the king of Northumbria were nothing to talk about. After all, Ernred was not the one who died the king, nor the righteous generation.This person doesn't want to be a servile courtier, so don't be a courtier. It's okay to be a king of a small country and spend his life temporarily in this increasingly magnificent Viking era.A kingdom of York controlled by the Balmerk Vikings was born. Einred admitted that this powerful kingdom built on his own land by despicable outsiders was clearly his own palace, and he honored the old man Mag. Nut is the "great king", which is the original meaning of the term "Magnut", and it also recognizes Bijuni as the crown prince of the Kingdom of York.The question of faith is set aside for the time being, or the so-called question of faith is not a problem at all. In the face of sudden destruction, it is the best choice for your own family to have such a result. At least his family still retains the fire of Ella, which has the possibility of revenge, even if the possibility is very slim.Five thousand young women, Erinred could not provide, the annual supply of 300 pounds of wheat, through squeezing the farmers in the remaining territories, and taking advantage of the violence of the Vikings to abduct local farmers in the war against Messia, To save the army's expenditure, he gritted his teeth and realized that he could do it well.The peace talks ended only on the day of the riverside battle, before the warmth of the dead bodies dissipated. The rapid development of the matter made Erinred feel that this was a nightmare.The next day, the dream woke up. He woke up from the house that was the servant's living room with his son in his arms, knowing that all this was not a dream, but a reality that was worse than a nightmare.Ella was ignorant and ignorant. The young boy yelled at his father and mother was a fool. He was bullied by the bald man at will and he was helpless.Einred first gave his son a slap, and when he was crying, he yelled: "Don't cry! You are a man! Remember this pain! Remember the humiliation of our kingdom. When I die, you will be the king of the kingdom. . Don't be arrogant for a woman, you must find a way to help our kingdom. One day, you will expel the Vikings who invaded our territory."Ella covered her face with tears and nodded ignorantly.Einred stood up, he still had to personally sign a formal peace treaty for yesterday's peace talks.Rurik, the cub of Rose actually thought of texting the treaty, do their barbarians have words? Wait a minute. That **** can speak Latin, and maybe he would write documents in Latin. Isn't that true...The facts are as Einred expected.A piece of parchment uncovered from the warehouse of the Kingdom was cut into three parts, with three scripts on it, namely the Luen alphabet in the Norse language, the Saxon Northumbrian dialect written in the Latin alphabet, and the written Latin. Written text of the treaty.Rurik actually understood written Latin, as well as colloquial Latin, which really surprised Einred further."Non-aggression Treaty between the Kingdom of York and the Duchy of Ross and the Kingdom of Northumbria"Just as the Saxons who immigrated to Britain are no longer Saxons, the Balmerks who decided to immigrate to Britain on a large scale must gradually become different from the natives. "The Kingdom of York", this is Magnuth's new name for the land where the immigrants live, and he himself is the king of the Viking Kingdom of York.As for the name of the treaty, it is purely an evil taste of Rurik.In other words, the name of the treaty already implies its results. This is just a brief armistice treaty. No one can stop the expansion of Vikings from all walks of life. This is the trend of the entire era! The Kingdom of York will tear up this treaty and devour Britain with a stronger Viking army. And the Viking Danes across the sea, they can never be spectators.As long as Magnuth or his successor decides to tear up the treaty, Ross, as a side of the alliance, will naturally send troops to help.Ernred signed his name with a quill pen.Rurik signed his signature in Latin, and his skillful gesture of holding a pen shocked Einred.
