Therefore, our male protagonist Liu Li was born as a baby in a small bay in the middle of Scandinavia. This place is also the settlement of the Ross tribe, and is simply called the Ross tribe. Roseburg.
But he is still a baby after all, and everything he needs to survive requires the care of his biological mother.
After a few days, Liu Li finally figured out his situation. Could he accept the reality of today in an instant? Become a part of these ethnic groups who dress up like ancient humans?
However, he is just a baby after all.
Liu Li now has a lot of time to figure out his situation.
Before that, what he didn't know was that the biological father of this body was heading towards Fort Ross with hundreds of warriors and a large amount of wealth obtained through plunder and fighting.
At this time, Niya could clearly detect the abnormality of the child in her arms.
For example, children always look at themselves with their lovely big blue eyes, or look left and right, as if they have an extremely urgent hope to understand and remember everything they see and hear.
"Child, are you just like your father, who has infinite desire for the outside world? Do you really want to explore the outside world that much?"
"Oh! You are still too young. When you grow up, you will definitely become a great warrior. Even, become our leader..."
Niya had too many words of blessing for her beloved son, and she especially hoped that nothing would happen to her child before he grew a beard.
However, when boys of all tribes reach a certain age, they develop fighting skills under the education of veteran warriors.
The Ross tribe, like all the tribes in Scandinavia, was not born with strong fighting power, but because they had a lot of time to hone their fighting ability.
Niya patted the child's back, trying to coax him to sleep, but the child still had his eyes wide open and his mouth moved as if he wanted to say something.
It was completely difficult for Niya to understand these situations. It seemed that the only thing that could explain it was the prophecy of the female elder. This child was an extraordinary person. He was blessed by Odin, and his life would definitely bring glory to the tribe.
Niya was pleasantly surprised by this. As time went by, she became more and more concerned about another major event - the warriors who were going to collect the tribute from the Sweg people would be returning in just a few days.
She is like many women in the tribe, who are looking forward to the return of their husbands and sons with a lot of wealth.
In the past few days, the atmosphere in Roseburg has become increasingly lively.
People have begun to talk about the wonderful goods brought back by the so-called warriors, which will be distributed according to the family, and will eventually be in the hands of each clan member. By then, how many treasures will fall into your hands?
Niya knows best that the world today has changed.
As for the distribution of spoils, she heard that in the time of her ancestors, the men and women of the tribe, even the youngest children, were entitled to a share.
Nowadays, it is men who go to fight, and it is men who travel thousands of miles to collect tribute. Naturally, the power of men in the tribe is getting higher and higher.
Now, only men who have gone through the coming-of-age ceremony have the right to receive distribution.
The so-called coming-of-age ceremony, for grown-up boys, is to prove that they are real men by participating in a battle.
So as the leader's wife, Niya knew very well that her small family could get rich rewards from this operation.
The wealth really came at the right time. In this way, the small family had enough wealth to be able to raise the little one in their arms well through the first winter of his life.
Finally, the warriors’ fleet is approaching the port of Fort Ross!
Tribal fishermen fishing for Baltic herring off the coast were the first to spot the approaching fleet.
First of all, fishermen are on the utmost alert.
After all, in this era, fishermen also work part-time as "sea heroes". If they find an isolated fishing boat from a non-allied tribe, the fishermen of the Ross tribe do not mind looting it.
This time, a large fleet of ships raised their wide sails. They were blown by the autumn northeasterly wind and approached the port.
People with excellent eyesight immediately understood that the person coming was not an enemy, it was entirely because of the leading warship in the fleet, whose sails were printed with a unique texture.
It was a pattern of two oars placed crosswise. Having such a pattern was actually a great achievement for the Ross tribe.
Speaking of which, the pattern on this sail was not made by the Ross tribe themselves.
The "rockable oar" is the origin of the name of the "Russ" tribe. Although the tribe has mastered the linen weaving technology, it is very lacking in cloth printing and dyeing technology.
All the "oars" that symbolize the Rus tribe come from the tribe's allies, those Siyan people in the south.
After all, the Siiya people are a large alliance of tribes, and the Ross tribe is essentially a part of them.
It's just that the Ross tribe is located too far north. The tribe intends to maintain its own initiative, but it also hopes to maintain peace with the "brother" tribes in the south, or at least avoid conflicts.
All the cloth with printed oar patterns was made by the allies in the south, so some dragon-head warships of the Ross tribe sewed it on the sails to declare their friendly status to their own people and allies, and to announce their identity to the enemy. exist.
Standing on the deck, Otto lowered the sails deliberately to announce his victory to the elders of the tribe. He also ordered all rowers to keep rowing. In addition to accelerating, they also constantly adjusted the course.
Otto soon met the tribe's fishing boat, and after a brief negotiation, the fleet moved forward further.
And when those fishing boats were accompanying them, they saw a completely different scene than when they set out.
I saw some warships towing some small boats with cables, and the decorations on their bows were definitely not the style of their own tribe and allies.
The fishermen even knew with their toes that Chief Otto's voyage was by no means as simple as collecting tribute. They had experienced battles! And it’s a lot to ask for!
Yes, hundreds of Otto's warriors fought against a group of Gotlanders on an unknown desert island. The biggest gain was a large number of weapons.
Although iron smelting technology has been spread to Scandinavia, known as the "Dark Land", in fact, the rocks in many desolate hills here are originally iron ore. All Viking groups have the ability to burn charcoal and use it to smelt iron, but they prefer to obtain the enemy's metal through battle and take it back to their homes to smelt it into the tools they need.
They can actually mine mines and extract pure iron by burning stones.
Especially the territory of the main tribe of Siiya, where there are large amounts of iron ore veins hidden. The only thing they lack is the eye for discovering ores!
Therefore, Otto followed the traditional idea and took away all the enemy's battle axes and swords.
Although the death of his younger brother in battle is painful, it is also a great pain for the son he left behind. So as the child's uncle, Otto knew very well that according to tribal tradition, he was about to succeed his father.
Home, a cold yet warm hometown, is just ahead, that little bay, that happy Roseburg.
Otto looked around and saw that there were already a large number of ships heading towards the fleet.
Otto, he has heard the cheers of his tribe!
