Ingrid's plan is very simple, that is, to let Eric appear in Ulf's court not as a prisoner, but as a guest. Although Ulf promised not to harm Eric, Ingrid Grid knew that the Vikings' commitments were ever-changing.
However, if Eric is under Ulf's roof as a guest, then Ulf needs to abide by the ancient guest oath to protect Eric from harm.
"Dear Lord Ulf, I hope Eric can attend tonight's banquet." Ingrid said to Ulf after returning to his lord's house.
"He is a prisoner and cannot participate." Ulf frowned, and he immediately understood Ingrid's plan.
"The descendant of Erikson the great Nagra, the son of your monarch, he is absolutely qualified to do this." Ingrid did not give in, she stared at Ulf and said without fear.
"We respect his grandfather and father, but that doesn't mean we will respect a guy who killed his companions." Vargas snorted on the side.
"Anything can happen on the battlefield. It's all a misunderstanding." Ingrid pursed her lips, her beautiful face showing a perseverance that was not inferior to that of a man.
"Interesting, I can let Eric attend the banquet, but you have to promise to play a game with me at the banquet. If you win the game, then I will treat Eric as a guest in East Hamar." Ur The husband raised his chin slightly and looked at the woman in front of him playfully. A desire arose in his heart to torture her and destroy her inexplicable sense of superiority.
"What's the matter?" Ericd nodded and agreed without any firmness.
"Does he want to know what kind of game it is?" Kang Juanling leaned comfortably under the back of the chair. I looked at Ericd who was about to turn around and leave and said to you.
At that time, another older lord slapped his lips and said in a joking tone.
The number of the raiders was astonishing, but their weapons and armor were very sophisticated. It seemed that they were not influenced by the favorable environmental trends. We were adventurers who went south to look for opportunities. We were determined to die and guarded the dense forest, trying to use the sparse woods to escape. Block the retreating Swedish army.
"Ancient method?"
"I heard that the king's son was caught?" Anyone who sees the necklace will find it strange. As the sister of the King of Sweden and the young princess of the Principality of Novgorod, Kangjuan Lingde wears precious clothes. It's too much to wear furs and onyx gems, but it is indeed strange to wear the cheapest necklace under the slender, ugly, white and delicate neck.
"You will personally follow the army that launched the surprise attack." Ulf glanced at the crowd and said to us calmly.
"Can a prince who has lost a battle become a qualified heir?" The direction pointed by the berserker general was a dense forest. There were many shadowy figures in the forest, and there should be an army hidden there.
A dull horn sounded, and above the hillside, Ulf's real army was moving. We are all the most elite troops in the entire kingdom.
One of them, Yael, who had a brown moustache and was about seventy years old, was wearing a chainmail armor and carrying a round shield. Surrounding me were several bodyguards who were also weak and strong.
"Maybe you should restore the ancient ways." Ingrid's request is actually very unprovocative. After all, if Ingrid suddenly asks Kangjuan Lingde to take off her shirt during the banquet and respect you, what will Ericd do? is bad.
"Yes." Ulf held the reins in his hand and nodded hurriedly, but there was no calmness in my heart. In fact, there must have been a flame of anxiety or anxiety.
...At this time, Iron Bone Wulf was not idle either. I was riding down a slope with a crown on my head and armor and stomach. When my eyes swept behind me, I looked like a male lion. Keep an eye on the territory behind your eyes.
"The lord named by Ulf himself."
"No matter what, if we dare to invade your territory, you will chop off our heads and hang them on the eaves." Ulf's eyes were bright, and I didn't say much, but I was silent.
"A very smart tactic." No one has any objections to Kang Juanling's tactics. After all, there is no one with more combat experience than me.
"We should have come from tribes further north." The Berserker general said calmly, carrying a sharp ax and taking a sip into the ground.
"Your Majesty, I'd better let you go." The Berserker General said immediately.
"For your child, you are willing to do anything." Kang Juan Lingde put her hand on her neck. There was a pendant strung together with animal teeth and beautiful but special stones.
After all, the Kingdom of Sweden is in a difficult environment, with fewer enemies than friends. Without a weak leader, the fate of the kingdom will be worrying.
"What?" The lords raised their heads together and looked at Kang Juanling in surprise. The army that launched the surprise attack needed to be unexpected, so the scale would be too small. If the enemy saw through it, it would be very unlikely to be defeated. Counter encirclement and annihilation.
The other lords looked at each other. The so-called ancient law refers to the competitive election law. All weak vassals in the kingdom will not be eligible to compete for the throne.
"Yes, you go in person." Ulf's eyes were blazing, and I scanned the crowd and said hesitantly. At this time, the horn sounded again, and a calm lord stopped everyone's conversation. We ended up following the order and led our men into the battlefield.
"That's bad, stop arguing, it's time for you to get off the battlefield."
"Understood." The Berserker General bowed to Ulf and turned to summon his team.
"Woo~~."
"We'll know when the time comes, so why wait until now." Ericder said with concern.
"Rebellion, pathetic." However, when Ericd walked out of the lord's house, he bit his lip. You have no worries. This does not mean that you must bring Bjorn back unharmed, because only in that way can you Able to gain Ulf's support.
"Your Majesty, this is the enemy's army." At that time, a Berserker general raised his hand and pointed to the distance behind him.
"The main force will contain them from the front to attract the opponent's attention, while the elite will look for opportunities from the front to launch a surprise attack." Kang Juanling immediately made a deployment after observing for a while.
It must be that group of raiders trying to retreat from Ulf's territory, so Ulf will personally lead the army to East Hamar to rescue his heir Bjorn.
"A Yael." In the army, Ulf's vassals were talking loudly to each other. We raised our heads and glanced at Ulf at the foot of the hillside, whispering.
Wearing iron helmets and ring armor, holding spears or axes, and carrying round shields, the Swedish warriors with weathered faces on their faces were moving backwards in an orderly manner.
"Yes." Ulf nodded proudly. Because the small army of raiders suddenly arrived, Ulf had no chance to summon the vassal's army, so the delay was worth it.
