Go to Lake Mälaren to capture the glory that the Ross people deserve!

   Then, who will be the glorious participant?

  The old Otto still remembers the scene of that year. Many years have passed. Sweden's political landscape has changed drastically. Once enemies and friends have also entered the pile of old papers. He still remembered the old face of the leader of Oleg, but it was a pity that the old guy was stomped by Ragnar.

  Olekin died in battle, and Ragna, the murderer, became Rose’s friend. Ragner himself is convinced that recruiting troops on Bornholm will take control of Denmark with Rose's cheer, and his people, especially their two sons, have become hostages stranded in Rose.

   Otto must participate in this trip to Sweden.

  In ancient times, there is the homeland of the Rus tribe. One hundred years later, the Russ Prince will be crowned king in Uppsala.

  Lurik will be king, and as an old man from the old age, he is the Supreme King. For the extremely high power, how does Otto value today? What he needs is glory, the more power his son has, the more glorious he is.

   Even if this aging and powerful body can no longer fight like a soldier, he must not be old enough to be indifferent.

  Otto, the first prince of the Duchy of Ross, and his wife Niya will personally participate in the kingship ceremony of the new King of Sweden.

   The second generation of Prince Rurik will become the king of all Sweden, and Queen Svetlana will officially become the queen of Sweden.

   The third-generation Prince Ospenslav in de jure has been born, even if he is a baby, as a born nobleman, he must participate in such a glorious moment.

   In fact, when Rurik gave the order, a group of elite aristocrats from the Rus Principality will participate in this event.

  Lurik will bring all his wives and concubines and all his children to participate in it. In terms of personal likes and dislikes, even Ragnar’s two sons, Ivar in a wheelchair, and Bjorn, who just learned to run, will participate.

   Maybe some young children should not participate in this long trip, they may die during the trip.

   Leurik was cruel, and his command was very absolute: "My children, the children of my relatives, must participate in it and meet the world."

   Even if the children of aristocrats are ignorant and ignorant, they participate in and witness the new King of Sweden, or the birth of the Rus dynasty in Sweden, or the birth of the Rus kingdom, which is a major political capital for this life.

It is necessary for the entire clan of the Rose Prince’s family to be dispatched. In order to avoid possible rebellion by the conquered Slavic people, all the surrendered Slavic manors must surrender their boyar heirs, saying that it sounds good to witness the birth of the king, say no It sounds like a hostage.

   Carlotta, Duchess of Ostala, took her son Carl to participate. Even if she immigrated to the far east, legally her enclave at the southernmost tip of Lake Ilmen is an enclave in Sweden. As a die-hard supporter of Rose, the Principality of Ostara will hoist the banner of the bull's head to wish the Prince of Rose the glory.

   As many as a thousand warriors of various ages have been called up. Most of them have the blood of the old Rus tribe, and there are also a group of Slavic warriors who have proved their ability in the war.

   Their own clothes can be varied, with a uniform white background blue robes, and uniform deerskin boots. Although the top of their head is a traditional riveted iron helmet with a huge nose, it is also equipped with a bearskin hat.

  The hard work of spring ploughing has ended, and the school set up in the Duchy of Ross has resumed classes. At present, the knowledge required to teach young children is generally limited, and most of them focus on teaching basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division calculations, Latin, Gnostic and Slavic teaching. These teaching activities can directly take the model of older children teaching children. As for learning more advanced knowledge, only the prince himself taught.

   Those outstanding men who have learned cultural knowledge, they have all been over twelve years old, and they can become men on the battlefield according to tradition. They have origins from Old Rus, other Viking tribes, and simple Slavs. They were all incorporated into the standing army, and most of them were actually assigned as cavalry.

   The horses have entered the breeding period, and the training of the cavalry has been suspended on a large scale for this reason. The young fighters have cultural knowledge far superior to others, and they are convinced that the world is a huge ball and that Rose is still a tiny glimpse of the huge world. They need to meet the world, even if they can't ride horses, they have to support the gorgeous tabletop for Rurik in the posture of infantry fighters.

  The ruling class of the Duchy of Ross around Lake Ilmen will organize a huge team of more than 1,000 people to rush to Mellaren.

  The large group of personnel was uniformly dressed, and more than a thousand soldiers of various ages dressed in white background and blue robes gathered outside Novgorod.

  Take a closer look at the sown wheat seeds, their sprouts broke through the soil slightly. The huge grid-like fertile fields are forbidden to be trampled by leisure people and others. The gathering place of the Rus army was the place where the horse race was used before, and now it is also covered with grass.

  The short grass was collapsed by the assembled soldiers. They all carried bucklers, burlap pockets, battle axes and swords hanging from their waists, and heavily equipped bows and crossbows. Many people are additionally carrying the halberd, with blue, white and red cloth strips hanging under the halberd.

   The main color of the army's clothing is white, with blue and red becoming the key auxiliary colors. The sun shining on them is sacred, and it shows a sense of sacredness.

   Regardless of their age, the soldiers lined up in multiple rows.

   Their standing posture is actually not very neat. If you take the queuing in the playground of a general school as the standard, their current standing method is not very satisfactory to Rurik.

   Even so, for the Swedish king Bjorn, who has not yet formally renounced, and other Swedish nobles who have lived in Novgorod for a whole winter and early spring, they have seen a strong army that is unpredictable only in terms of momentum.

   Wooden stakes were placed on the wild ground, and a relatively large propaganda platform was quickly erected.

   Under the preaching stage, the soldiers who are about to travel are lined up. Even Nolan and the drum band she trained are constantly playing joyous music to enhance the atmosphere.

  On the promulgation stage, the Swedish nobles and their envoys, as guests, hereby observe the great soldiers before the departure of Prince Rurik.

   They were full of praise for the heroic appearance of the Russian army, and they talked about the fleet anchored by cables on the Volkhov River not far away.

   Their eyes also paid attention to the appearance of Otto, Rurik, and the baby.

   The three generations of Ruth rulers are here, and the brothers are all Swedish nobles. No doubt at this point in time are the footnotes of the glory of the Ruth nobles.

   Although he has not yet reached the Great Temple of Uppsala, Bjorn has already seen the result. Rurik can make such a big "big pawn" after the vast spring ploughing. He is going to Mellaren with a glorious attitude. If anyone dares to oppose him, he can quickly The assembled army rushed away.

   The Melalen tribe, which was greatly injured by many wars years ago, has lost its hard power in foreign wars, and the people’s war weariness is also very high. Bjorn's mind had to think about it: "Ross! You are too strong! Rurik, if you want us all of Mellaren to be slaves, and the army is coming, we can't resist it. "

   Even Bjorn has such a pessimistic attitude, and other nobles have already labeled themselves as a vassal of Rose in their hearts. They saw that in the army that received some soldiers, there was actually a flag with a black bull's head pattern on a white background. It was an army of the Ostras. Obviously, it is not a bad thing to be a vassal of Ross. The Ostras are now. Life is very good.

   There were some cavalry on the spot as an embellishment, because the Pechenegs and Kievans had already gone south with a large amount of purchased materials, making the cavalry lineup too deserted. The cavalry is used for warfare in many plains. As for the icy eroded lake with extremely tortuous shoreline of Lake Mälaren, it is more suitable for the "Marines" with swords and shields.

   Noren paused the current music under the sign of Rurik, and then played the beautiful and majestic tune on the other end.

   "Rose! My Beautiful Home

   The tune has its own name, and the tune itself was not composed by Rurik himself. It was indeed seen that he composed the music and wrote the lyrics correctly.

   The prelude, Rurik, standing high up, yelled: "Brothers, let us sing this song together! Russia..."

   The great alliance of that plane fell apart, and the tunes that witnessed the glory of the alliance were preserved, in order to recall the glory of the past. The song is a good song, and the current Duchy of Ross is in fact a loose government as a whole. The birth of a large and unified country cannot be achieved overnight. It takes a certain amount of time to unite a large number of forest tribes and coastal tribes into a whole.

   The young warriors sang a song together, singing the greatness of Rose, and praising the consensus that unity can be great.

   More than a thousand people sing a song together? The tune is also very nice. The lyrics in Norse are more complicated. Listening to the content of the lyrics makes the Swedish nobles thrilled! Valley

The leaders or messengers of those small tribes feel that this song proves the true attitude of the Rus people. The tribe’s population is small, that is, a small boat on the sea can’t make much waves. The lyrics are very clear, "All tribes The regiment structure is built into a strong fortress, leading us from victory to another victory."

Prince Rus desperately emphasized unity through this song of thousands of people. This slogan was not mentioned by King Bjorn, who has not yet abdicated, and King Olegin and King Karl, who died, not only did not mention it. What is shown is fundamental hegemony. Important political decisions should be made at the Temple of Uppsala. The king's enthronement ceremony has not yet been implemented. Maharaja Rurik clearly expressed Ross's position.

   So brothers all voted. Listening to the command of this young hero, Rurik, everyone will live a good life in the future. After all, Rurik sang all his ideas.

   Tactful songs can fill people's spiritual and cultural needs, and good songs can best spread far away.

   When the singing was over, Rurik opened his arms to signal everyone to be quiet.

   He cleared his throat and preached in a loud voice.

"Warriors of Rose! We are walking on a path to glory. You can be chosen to prove that you are the heroic fighters of Rose. You will witness my glory. The moment I wear the golden crown, you too Got the honor!

  We will hold a ceremony at the Great Temple of Uppsala! One hundred years! It's been a hundred years! Our ancestors of the Rus left there, and we are back a hundred years later!

   All the grievances and grievances of the old age are over, Ross and Sweden merged, a kingdom was born, and the disputes ended.

  It will be a safer and more prosperous situation that belongs to our descendants. All people live and work in peace and contentment under the rule of the Kingdom of Ross.

I! Rurik! Is the creator of prosperity! Cheers for me! "

  Rurik’s words are not humble, he advertises himself as the creator of prosperity, and this is what everyone would like to hear and see.

   Someone raised their heads, and thousands of people began to cheer.

   The Viking roar that the Swedish nobles wanted to hear didn't exist, but they heard even more wonderful roars.

   That is the sound of the Ullah like a mountain whistling and a tsunami, washing the beach over and over again like waves, encircling the ears for a long time.

   The princes are big soldiers, and they are young and capable.

   A group of thirty-year-old veterans are the core of the army, and an astonishing number of teenage boys are the backbone of this army.

   There is no Swedish nobleman who would despise a group of teenage children, or that they do not believe that the youngest child is only twelve years old.

Everyone is a Nordic with golden hair. Rose has special food care for children from Viking family. Men and women are provided with wheat and meat every day. A twelve-year-old boy is not only quite tall, but also golden. Beard and chest hair. Dressed thickly, directly disguised as a strong man.

   Bjorn and other nobles are very inferior. The young fighters of the Rus are generally taller than the mature men of their own tribe. This time they wear a bearskin cap and look taller.

   The puberty of Northern European boys often begins at the age of nine. If you don’t eat well at this stage, your height will be greatly suppressed. Adult men of the Melaren tribe generally have a height equivalent of only 165 cm, and many of them are still 180 cm or even taller men, but the proportion of tall and strong men is too low.

This was the same situation for the Ross people in the past, but since Rurik took control of his power, he used his own funds to provide free high-nutrition meals to the children of the tribe. For a while, people called the "perfect generosity" measure, and achieved the present. This unimaginable situation-there are too many tall boys and girls in the Duchy of Ross.

  Lurik himself is a tall man, and his queen is also very tall among women. All the other wives and concubines are here, and there is not a short one.

   The soldiers roared loudly, and their momentum was like a rainbow, and the thousands of words that were so beautiful could hardly describe their current momentum.

   Otto had a strong illusion. He felt that the soldiers were cheering for him.

   "No, they are cheering to Rurik. But... I still bring glory to Rose."

   An old soldier shed two lines of tears. Otto was excited and deeply regretted that he was old. For the first time forty years ago, he came with the team to Lake Ilmen to pay tribute to the locals. He did not expect that he would end up here in the end. He did not expect Rose to become the overlord, the king of the old and the new.

   He was so sober, he saw the birth of his direct grandson, he could hold his grandson in his arms and tease, and he was about to see his son crowned.

   This army that is subject to spot-pawn inspection, if it goes to the territory of the Frankish kingdom, as long as the commander is willing, it can sweep across the vast area like a tsunami, killing the Frankish army vomiting blood for three liters and then flying away with the spoils.

   There will be no war this year. The huge army is indeed a combat corps in essence, but now its job is to act as a luxurious guard of honor.

Originally, they were also doing mass production work during the warm period of peace, such as the traditional work of fishing and hunting. This work had to be suspended. Lulik would be responsible for all the expenditures of the army during the period when the army was stationed in the Uppsala Temple. The main expenditure is actually the consumption of food, which is naturally not a problem.

   Because of the order for as many as eight standard cargo ships, the large Swedish tribes around Lake Mälaren pay for the wheat. The army’s food consumption will be easily filled and there is still a huge surplus.

   While the Russ army stationed directly in Uppsala throughout the warm period, it was also a real supervision and deterrence, urging the Swedish tribes to obediently take out the physical goods after the autumn harvest.

  The soldiers boarded the fleet one after another. As the main force of the fleet is still at the Kronstadt berth at the mouth of the Neva River, the huge army directly boarded the four newly-built standard cargo ships for foreign trade. Each cargo ship squeezed more than one hundred people on the waterline and was violently pushed down. The slender cargo ship still floated steadily on the Volkhov River during the high water season in late spring.

   The Russ fleet, including a large number of long rowing boats, rushed to Lake Ladoga along the Volkhov River. The fleet set sail again, and the south wind sent the fleet a great assist.

   Everyone felt the strong speed of the fleet. From Bjorn's standpoint, he felt that this kid Rürik was too impatient.

  How can you not be impatient?

   Ascension to the throne must bring along Lu Mia, the High Priest of Rose, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com and a full set of priests. Let the priests of the Great Temple of Uppsala go to hell! When the Prince Rose is upgraded to the king, the entire enthronement ceremony must be presided over by the high priest of Rose. The ritual should also be done in accordance with the ceremony of Rose, which is equivalent to just borrowing the venue of the Uppsala Temple.

   After all, is that the center of worship for the Swedes? Even if the temple is far less noble than the stone temple in the Rus duchy decorated with a large number of glass sheets.

   He is so impatient and has another purpose, which is to go to Shilla Fort to obtain a treasure—the crown.

   Sweden's King Bjorn, who has not formally abdicated, can't take out the golden crown, he can't take out things that don't exist. A certain crown can most intuitively demonstrate the power of the king. If it is in accordance with the standards of the Frankish Kingdom, there must be a crown, a golden cross and a golden ball.

  Ross Principality also has holy relics! The jeweled wooden staff and antler helmet of the high priest Veria, and the long sword made of Damascus steel of the first prince Otto.

   Ross is still short of the crown that must be correct. This crown, Rurik, has already sent people to Silla Fort to make Kamnier.

   Regardless of the structure of the crown, it must be a "golden laurel crown". The three views of the specifications are drawn on hard paper by Rurik.

  The crown is indeed a crown of laurels. Since one of the Roses will one day have the nobility and sacredness of the Roman Empire, they will eventually be promoted to the ruler of Augustus. There should be a golden crown as the crown.

   is like a pattern of Roman silver coins widely circulated in the Principality. The Emperor Justinian on it wears a crown of laurel on his head.
