Rebirth of the Viking King
Chapter 160 4.20 Autumn “Plunder” (3)
At the end of August, wheat ears were already pointing heavily to the land, and corn and quinoa from the New World also began to become full and heavy.
When the peasant women took sickles and began to collect limited crops from the barren land, the fleet of the Viking lords set sail on time at the dock of the Scandinavian Peninsula. The seven lords gathered nearly 300 longships in total, carrying no less than 10,000 Viking pirates, and drifted to the other side of the Baltic Sea.
However, the Viking pirates did not know at this time that the Slavic king "White Bear" Bakanbusi and the coalition forces of the seven countries of England had already laid a net and waited for them to show up.
After sailing for a day, the longships came to shore one after another. The lords only left a very small number of Viking pirates to guard the ships, and took away all the rest of the manpower to join the annual grand autumn looting activities.
The pirates who were unfortunate enough to draw the staying lottery could only set up simple tents on the beach, fish, set nets, and repair ships every day. They did nothing but wait for the money to be divided.
"Boring, so fucking boring!" The young warrior who was holding the axe behind his head muttered softly. The morning sun had just risen, but he was still sleepy.
"It would be great if a few cavalrymen could come and kill me at this time! My axe has been idle for a year, and I've been thirsty for a long time!"
"Haha, those cow-smelling things dare to challenge us? We haven't seen the Slavs who came to attack the fleet for many years!"
"Yeah, if you get the advantage, just lie down and sleep well. There is no money to be made sleeping at home, but sleeping here at least has meat, wine and silver, which is very comfortable!"
The young Slavic warrior felt that his eyelids were unusually heavy. He took out the hard axe from behind his head and found a stone instead.
However, in a trance, he actually felt the ground behind him vibrating rhythmically!
This is not an illusion!
Picking up the hand axe and walking out of the tent, he saw a black line appearing on the horizon not far away. It was at least thousands of Slavic yak cavalry!
"Be on guard! Prepare for battle!"
The scouts in charge of lookout blew the horns for battle, and the Viking warriors took up their round shields and lined up. As the yak riders approached, they found that this group of warriors was completely different from the group of farmers they had seen before.
They wore a full set of sophisticated steel armor, and the weapons in their hands were upgraded from ordinary black iron long swords to heavy Damascus machetes that were more than one meter long.
After looting eastward for hundreds of years, it was not the first time that the Vikings encountered Slavic attacks on their fleets. The Chosen Ones under the "Sea Giant Path" in the Hall of Valor were best at fighting against the rushing cavalry. They picked up the giant axes about 2 meters long and transformed, standing at the forefront of the team and waiting for battle.
But at this moment, a loud dragon roar sounded in the sky!
Five hundred years ago, the Scandinavian Peninsula was still ruled by giants. The natural enemy of giants at that time was the flying dragon in the sky. Although with the change of the times, giants and dragons have almost all disappeared in the long river of history, until now, there are still several subspecies of the powerful dragon race that have successfully adapted to the environment and survived tenaciously.
Among the seven countries of the English Isles, only the wealthy Wessex has the national strength to raise dragons. This powerful creature inherited from ancient times has extremely demanding requirements for food, water, and living environment. Dragons that can be tamed by humans can only be raised artificially. However, artificial breeding will greatly reduce the inherent aggressiveness and combat ability in their blood.
If you are not careful, these sub-dragons with defects in their genes will not be able to grow smoothly.
The original place of origin of the dragon knight is the wealthy France in the western continent. The fertile land and superior geographical environment make France the capital of luxury goods in the western continent second only to Constantinople. Only the romantic and wealthy French people would think of raising dragons, a luxury from the Middle Ages.
It is difficult to tell whether the "dragon knights" and "pegasus knights" they cultivated with countless real money are handsome or have strong fighting ability.
When the Kingdom of Wessex became rich by relying on maritime trade, the first monarch "Cadwalla" had extravagant hopes for these flying beasts. He spent a lot of money to send scholars to the "Plantage Family" in the Duchy of France. After decades of study and seeking advice, he trained the first batch of dragon language scholars.
After returning to Wessex, the dragon language scholars worked hard for three generations, paid hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and thousands of lives. By the fourth generation ruler Ecbert, Wessex finally began to have its own dragon knights.
Although the Vikings plundered Mercia, a neighboring country of Wessex, Ecbert knew that the Vikings were a threat. Therefore, he sent three dragon knights to join the Slavic cavalry, striving to fight the first battle.
After the dragons participated in the exhibition, they immediately played their own advantages.
Wherever the dragon flames passed, all the longboats were burned to slag! Viking shield axemen are good at close-range combat but not good at long-range attacks. Facing a giant beast like a dragon flying at high speed in the air, they were stunned and had no effective countermeasures. The guards guarding the coast were burned to ashes almost instantly.
The running Slavic yak riders trampled the Viking pirates with flames on their bodies. The cold-land yaks weighing up to two tons easily trampled the Viking pirates in leather clothes into meat paste. Many Viking pirates tried to escape into the sea, but the giant dragon flying in the sky spewed flames, and the fierce fire easily heated the sea water to a terrible temperature.
It didn't take long for the coast to be scorched earth, and there was no living person.
Before evacuating, the dragoons burned all the trees in sight near the coast. This move was to completely cut off the Viking pirates' escape route home and completely lock them into the east coast of the Baltic Sea.
After finishing everything, the dragon and the cavalry continued to fly along the coastline, heading towards the next place where the longship would land. In just two days, more than 300 warships docked near the coast by the seven major lords were all burned to ashes. The pirates who crossed the Baltic Sea wanted to go home, so they had to walk a long circle around the Baltic Sea.
Under the best of circumstances, they will not be able to return to their hometown until the beginning of next spring.
**
At the same time, Scandinavia, Dragon's Breath Plateau.
The Dragon's Breath Plateau is located in the middle of the peninsula near the Baltic Sea. The north of the plateau is the Frost Mountains ruled by the Frost People, and the south is the valley ruled by Lord Bernard. The Longxi Plateau has the highest terrain and the most complex terrain.
A thousand years ago, this high platform that suddenly rose from the plains was the habitat of many dragon-like creatures on the peninsula. Although giant dragons like to fly in the wind, their lairs are mostly built in dark caves.
Under the seemingly vast green grassland of Longxi Plateau, there are many kinds of hidden caves. Even the lord "Angus Mokrash" built the capital of the Dragon's Breath Plateau in a luxurious grotto abandoned by the dragon.
He named his castle Dragon's Breath Caves. Anyone who has entered this city will be impressed by its exquisite layout.
This is strong evidence that dragons have lived here for thousands of years.
Even the herdsmen who have lived on this land for a long time cannot tell how many caves there are in the Longxi Plateau. As for where each cave leads to, no one knows.
It is precisely based on this geological environment that Longxi Plateau has become a natural "sanctuary".
Oleg worked as a Slavic slave laborer here for 4 years.
Lord Moklash is an important partner of the O'Sullivan family, and he owns a large number of slave owners' estates in his territory. These noble men from the major cities in the Western Continent took advantage of the Vikings' rich slave resources to open mines and set up factories on the Dragon's Breath Plateau to excavate precious resources that the Vikings were not good at smelting.
In four years, Oleg moved to many manors on the Dragon's Breath Plateau as a slave. He recorded these locations accurately in his mind and painted them on linen in his spare time.
And now, it's time to use it.
Two months ago, when he and Bakanbusi plotted their plan, he had already asked the group of English monks to use ships to transport 100 Slavic warriors. The Vikings did not have the habit of cruising along the coastline. When the ship quietly approached the shore, Buchanbuchi and 100 warriors jumped into the sea and swam to the shore.
For a long period of time since then, these 100 warriors have been hiding in hidden underground caves on the Dragon's Breath Plateau. All food and supplies depended on Oleg and Bakanbusi to buy them from the river valley.
Buchan Bushi never imagined that there would be a lord like Loki in the world. He was originally quite worried about how Master Oleg would escape from the village, but what he didn't expect was that no one in Hanshui Village, whether it was the lord or the workers, let alone keeping an eye on them, even looked at them.
Oleg spent money, bought grain, and organized manpower to transport people. No one in the village cared about his every move. After a few days, he even felt that staying up at night and day all day long was like a joke. Through transportation one after another, the two sent the supplies they needed to the Slavic army hidden underground on the Dragon's Breath Plateau.
At this time, he was standing side by side with Bakan Bushi at the entrance of the cave in Longxi Plateau, looking at an elderly herdsman grazing a dozen cattle and sheep in the distance.
"According to the agreed time, those Viking bastards should have completely lost their ships tonight! This is the time when the seven major provinces are at their most empty."
Haha Buchan Bushi laughed twice. He stood up suddenly and roared loudly facing the empty grassland! This wanton roar completely cleared away the depressed mood of living in the cave these days.
Behind him, groups of strong Slavs came out of the cave one after another. Their faces are resolute, and their violent beating muscles also express the manic desire to kill in their hearts.
Countering looting is always exciting.
They were fully armed and filled with murderous intent.
