, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!
The Balmerks had no doubts about the victory of their expeditions. Now the brave Biyuni returned. The messengers sent back by the heads of the families brought the gold and silver utensils looted from Britain as their tokens. They immediately disembarked from the ship. Announcing a great victory, and even the call of Magnut, who was promoted to the king.
Balmerks, they all dream of a warm land. They are not born wild warriors, but are forced by the harsh living environment and have to survive with brutal physiques. The price is very high. A large number of babies die every year, forcing women to keep giving birth and causing many women to die in dystocia.
They couldn't compete with the people of Bergen before they settled in the more northern fjords, and finally the chance to leave this ghost place!
The entire fjord fell into joy. The returnees described Britain as the land with fragrance, claiming that the wildly growing pastures could feed sheep as big as cows. In order to highlight Britain’s wealthy people, the bragging of the description became more bizarre. , But their minds have flown directly to Britain with the mouth of the describer.
Geiger of Vashobi also returned. As soon as the boy arrived at the farm, he immediately called all the people together, whether men, women, young or old. Even the women kidnapped from Northumbria during the war last year.
In the world of Vikings, these women are indeed not hungry. They all have finished giving birth and are doing agricultural work similar to their hometown life, but they still retain their faith, and they are surprised by their Viking husbands. "There is no objection.
Magdalene actually became a Valkyrie? A new deity was born here in Vashobi Farm. The so-called Northumbrian women always chanted Magdalene blessing when they gave birth, and thanked the Virgin afterwards. The overly simple Vikings take it for granted that this deity is definitely not noble than Freya, and must also be a Valkyrie who blesses women. Believing in her can ensure women's safe childbirth. This belief becomes necessary.
These women were ecstatic when they learned that the entire farm was going to immigrate to Britain, but it was Northumbria. Many women's hatred for the Vikings disappeared in an instant, replaced by the longing for the hometown of Northumbria. Look at these Vikings again, they will no longer be strangers.
But they did not know that the immigrants of Balmerks were not about to integrate into Northumbria, but to replace them locally. They don't even know that tens of thousands of people died in the war that just ended in Britain.
It was only on the third day of the ship’s return that the Vashobi people packed up their softness, brought more than a hundred sheep and some reserves of dried meat, and took 12 long boats to start the voyage of immigrants betting on everything.
There were more than one hundred boats traveling with them. In this wave, as many as three thousand Balmerk men, women, and children rushed to the south by the autumn sea breeze.
And this is just the beginning.
Rurik stayed in the Balmerk territory for five days. As many people wanted to immigrate, a batch of softness could not be taken away, so she bought a batch of useful things at a low price.
Perhaps their big immigration action is not a good thing for Rose, and the departure of a group of capable labor forces directly led to the shortage of people in Balmerk's hometown? To make matters worse, Balmerk's political core has moved to York, and the stranded people lack a commander in command!
Rurik saw this clearly, and it didn't matter, he began to make some arrangements.
Rurik could have withdrawn as soon as he came, and he spent a little more time making a key call.
Not everyone is willing to leave their hometown, they are willing to stay for various reasons. It was this group of people that Rurik was concerned about. He worried a group of men and announced a remarkable fact to them.
"King of York, your old leader Magnuth has been appointed, Noren, my wife is the Countess of Balmerk, and our children will inherit this title. People who are willing to stay, don’t worry, we Ross people Your brother will always be your brother, and I will be your trusted backer. You continue to make salt, and we Ross people will continue to provide you with wheat and other materials. I promise you that this winter, I will come back with Nolan, one step beyond Dashan’s trade road will be stabilized, and we will exchange what is needed."
In fact, they don't really need a lord, they generally admire Rurik, the young hero of Rose. They showed great enthusiasm, and many men who decided to stay there announced that if the Duke of Ross had a war mobilization, their group would take up arms to help the Ross people. Do not! In other words, fighting for the common good.
They do not need to rule their own lord, but they need a hero and a strong backer to cover their own safety.
After a large number of people leave the fjord, who can be sure that the people of Bergen will not covet the north? Although it has adopted an alliance with Ross, a large number of people have moved to Britain, and the remaining people may no longer be safe.
Unless the Ross people are really willing to manage it.
Rurik did not hide his desire to rule in the slightest, but Biyunni did not question him, but strongly supported him.
This is his half-brother and younger sister's husband, who swore an oath to Odin together.
Wouldn’t it be appropriate for Bijuni to own the territory of Britain and the descendants of Rurik and Nolan to have their homeland?
The cold sea breeze swept across the low offshore mounds and poured into the fjord in the north.
Three thousand strong people seized the opportunity to start a vigorous immigration operation, and acted as navigators in the brothers who had been to the Northumbria beach. No one is worried about this voyage, they will put all the good enthusiasm for future life into action.

The fjord has also become cold and cold. Until next year, the cold conditions will only intensify.
Biyuni went home this time, another purpose was to pick up his mother, and the servants and belongings were also packed into the big boat and taken away.
On a calm night, a lot of oil lamps were lit for the last time in the long house.
The old lady Yingbjerg has a kind face. Now that the tribe has won the victory and her husband has become the king, her personal identity has also been elevated.
She praised the war with all kinds of beautiful words, and also praised Rurik of Ross for being a good son-in-law.
In this room, Biyuni heard it quite comfortingly, but what happened to the sudden depression.
"Ah, we are about to leave this bitter cold place forever. Rurik, if you think there is value remaining here, then count it as value." Bijuni sighed casually.
Rurik didn't expect this person to sigh, so he deliberately asked: "It's a place of bitter cold, don't you miss it?"
"What can I miss. If there was a chance before, we would have left."
"So decisive?"
"I'm different from you." Bijuni turned his face, his face full of certainty: "You are also emigrating. Obviously, you can't forget your hometown. We have our own ways of living. You can take this fjord. . You are an excellent leader. If the people who stay here follow you, it will be their blessing. However, they are all weak and need your protection."
The weak? Shouldn't it? Some people are lovers.
Rurik didn't argue at all, he was ecstatic.
Yingbjerg cleared his throat: "Hey. The Britain you two said is really warm enough."
"It's very warm, the land is most suitable for growing wheat." Bijuni emphasized.
"That would be great." The old woman patted her clothes, and the meaning of getting on the boat and leaving could not be clearer.
Biyunni added: "Three thousand people have left recently. The Washobi has been abandoned, and a group of people who are slow to prepare will also leave with my big boat. By next year, more people will leave. Maybe they will stay at the end. There are fewer than four thousand people who have come down. By the way, there is one thing I can guarantee."
"What is it?"
"About salt. My brother's agreement is what I say. It's in the bay of Britain. From now on, we will trade every year. In addition to wheat, there will be salt or other goods. I know what you are worried about about salt. , This has never been a problem."
To be honest, Rurik is really worried that this contract will collapse due to the situation. It would be totally unrealistic to get two thousand pounds of good salt a year if only relying on the handful of people who decided to stay behind to make salt.
"That's great." Rurik nodded calmly on the surface, "Similarly, about those Tevastian women."
"Oh! If you don't tell me, I have forgotten it! There are five hundred women I want to bring back."
"Exactly. I intend to bring them back here this winter. Isn't there a group of people who will start immigration next spring? Don't worry, your ship will take them away."
Biyuni felt very comfortable, and couldn't help but sigh: "You have to trek in the snow and ice, it will be a hard snow road."
"Don't worry about this. I plan to bring Noren with me during the winter trip. Brother, those powerful family leaders left with the family, and Noren has become the most distinguished person in this fjord. Maybe he will stay. The people of Japan will not fully support me, I believe they will support Nolan."
"So, is she ready to be a mother?" Biyunni breathed a long sigh of hope, "I think it's almost a few years."
"So."
"You two should hurry up." Imbjerg urged with a smile: "No one will really support a woman as a leader unless she gives birth to a son who can inherit her career. Just like people admire the Valkyrie, It's because the Valkyrie is Odin's attendant. Rurik, you have to take the initiative in this matter."
"Me? Okay..." What else could Rurik say, and he could only make a fool of himself. Just like Nolan, if you want to be a mother, wait for three years...
But Mary, the Queen of Mercia, who was taken captive by herself, is basically ripe for her time.
Because of that skilled prince and daughter, as a boy, Rurik felt that his masculine power was in crisis for the first time, and she wished to dig more oysters from Öland Island.
This night is Bijuni’s last night at his home, and tomorrow will be another wave of immigration.
By then, all the priests of the Balmerks will leave, and after tomorrow, the elite group of people in the entire fjord will land in Britain in more than ten days.
This is the maneuverability and powerful mobility of the Vikings, which drove them to do things so quickly. Once they are like this, they will have to wait until next year if they don’t leave tomorrow. If so, who doesn't want to spend the winter in a warm place? As far as the climate is concerned, the port of Narvik, which is adjacent to the Arctic Circle, does not see the sun for a whole month during the winter period is too harsh.
Since they want to withdraw, do they also follow?
Rurik thought that his propaganda against the group of people who remained determined had ended, and he couldn't control how the people discussed it.
The time is here, and he really can't spend it anymore.
Even the more he thought about it, the more worried he became. Today’s time has dragged on to late September. This year’s climate is still relatively cold compared to previous years. If he delays for a while, when the Aphrora finally floats to Gotland The island is facing a continuous ice formation in the north.
Even if it was to leave tomorrow, Rurik had the worst idea-the Aphrodite had to stop at Tombstone Island, a crossroad on the sea.
For this night, Rurik slept in the leader's long house. It is obvious that the right to belong to this long house in the future will be his.
Since the previous "family conversation" mentioned Norn as a nobleman who ruled the Balmerks, Rurik thought of the poor Queen Mary.
This Latin-speaking female noblewoman is two to three years older than Rurik, or she herself is slightly ambiguous about her birthday. It’s okay. In terms of height, Rurik still has the advantage, but in other aspects...
Queen Mary's dress is deliberately simple, just for a low-key, it is this simplicity that makes her look like a slave.
She was pulled into the inner bedroom of the long house, and was then pressed by Rurik on the soft leather cushion. She kept yelling too suddenly not ready, just...
Rurik gasped and spoke with a serious voice: "You... have a lot of ideas. I knew from the beginning that you want to be a mother earlier and take your children to avenge your father's kingdom. You are such a...a person. The despicable woman actually killed her father, even though that man was a defeated villain. I want to teach you a lesson!"
This is also a lesson? Queen Mary's mind is getting more and more confused, she is actually very comfortable, and her mouth is missing a door.
"What kind of prince? I am a lowly woman... I am the product of an affair, so Wigraf hates me. But if the scandal spreads, Mercia's face will be ruined..."
She intended to continue complaining, but Rurik stopped directly.
Only then did she realize her stupidity, and she stiffened. Rurik even felt the woman's intense panic.
"You? You are not the real queen?"
"Ah I…"
"Say!" Rurik moved his face over, pulling one hand out of his neck and slowly squeezing it tightly: "Does anyone else know about this?"
"No...no. Forgive me! Forgive me..."
"Does Ernred of Northumbria know? Do other nobles know?"
"They don't know. This is what Wigraf told me before he died. So... I killed him. It turns out that everything I... encountered was for this reason, oooooo..."
She cried with pear blossoms and rain, and Liu Rick shook away the tears from her hands.
A strong bull continued to plow the ground without unnecessary exhaustion.
Maybe it's true, maybe it's fake. But it must be fake!
Rurik's strength became stronger, and he continued to yell in Latin: "It's all Wigraf's conspiracy. He is forcing you to kill him and make you guilty. You are the prince of Mercia, and you will be able to give birth next year. The true king of Mercia. When you return to Rose, you obediently listen to my orders and don't do anything stupid. Otherwise, I will really believe your description."
The Queen Mary did not dare to have any disobedience, she hurriedly said that she would obey. But it was just that stupid confession that a stone in my heart fell to the ground.
Yes, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com herself can't be sure whether Wigraf's words are true or not. The only credible thing is that she is lucky that she hasn't become a slave now, and what else can she hope for.
The queen Mary, who was tossed by seasickness, had only rested for a few days, and was taught by Liu Lik to walk with sore legs. This can also be regarded as a dismissal to a subjugated nobleman, letting her understand that the day when she can still eat enough food is actually a charity from the conqueror.
Rurik didn't say anything, but the look in Mary's eyes after she revealed herself had indeed become a bit strange. Once he was sympathetic, but now, Mary is indeed just an excellent tool to use. In other words, it is an existence that is almost a servant who just asks what to do.
On a new day, a new immigration action has begun.
The priests of Balmerk performed a ceremony on the shore, sacrificed a batch of fish to the sea god, and boarded the Balmerk sailing ship with joy.
Rurik didn't need to grind, and quickly boarded the Aphrora with his entourage, seeing that the immigration brigade rowing a long boat began to move, and he also ordered to sail in the strong north wind.
With someone yelling "anchor", the last arduous voyage began.
