Rebirth of the Viking King

The people at the bottom of society did not want to live with these invaders from the north, because they had suffered two massacres in two years.

The common people were different from the lords. The poor people who made a living by farming could not tell which unit belonged to the "Blood Pigeon Town Pirates" and which unit belonged to the "Sabertooth Mercenaries".

In their eyes, these tall demons with big axes were all the same.

They would chop anyone they saw and burn the fields they saw.

They didn't want to give anyone a chance to live.

Therefore, when they heard that even the arrogant Wessex was defeated by the Vikings, everyone felt like the sky was falling.

In the eyes of the people who believed in the Holy Bishop, "serving the devil" was the greatest original sin in the world. Therefore, they would rather abandon the real estate accumulated by their ancestors for generations and move to other provinces.

Loki had expected this situation.

But he really didn't come up with a practical solution.

Let a row of Viking warriors stand on the border holding big axes to kill all the residents who crossed the border?

This would not solve any practical problems.

It would only make them hate the Vikings more.

Or just let them go, and then replenish the missing population from the Slavs?

This is also unrealistic.

Let's not talk about whether these northern men are willing to live in warm and humid England. Even if they are willing to come

Most Slavic people hate Vikings as much as the English.

As winter is coming, large tracts of farmland in the province are not harvested. Farmers load their families on ox carts, and nearly 100,000 people move slowly on the official roads of the two provinces.

At this time, Elizabeth appeared.

**

The girl in a plain white dress is still dressed the same as before. When she appeared in the crowd, the farmers immediately turned around, and everyone looked at her involuntarily and saluted solemnly.

"Princess Elizabeth, you are a real angel!"

"We pray to the Lord every day, praying that you can get out of the sea of ​​suffering safely"

In the eyes of the people of Mercia, the most miserable person in the world is this pure princess. Not only can he not leave, but he has to be ravaged by the demon lord all day long. When thinking of this picture, the simple peasant women would subconsciously shed tears secretly.

And pray that the Lord Jesus Christ would rescue the lost angels back to their side as soon as possible.

"Everyone, don't leave yet."

"I used to be the Princess of Mercia, but now I have a new identity."

"I am the Duchess of Normandy!"

If Elizabeth had not appeared, the farmers could stay away from this land.

But the Princess of Mercia appeared in front of them, and no one dared to turn a blind eye.

This 18-year-old girl is an angel sent by the Lord Jesus Christ to the mortal world to save the people, and she is the patron saint of the poor in Mercia. Farmers can disrespect the lord, the king, and even the Lord Jesus.

But as long as they live in Mercia, no one can disrespect Elizabeth.

From childhood to adulthood, she has paid too much for the poor people of this country.

"I am also the ruler of this land!"

"I promise you all that as long as I am the 'Duchess', I will not allow any unwarranted killing to happen on this land."

"And this point can also be guaranteed by Duke Loki beside me."

"Everyone should know that he is not the Blood Pigeon Clan that floated over the sea last year and killed everyone on sight."

"The army under his command is not the group of saber-toothed mercenaries in iron armor!

After occupying the Seawatch Fortress, he opened the city gates and released all the craftsmen. As long as they belonged to my Mercia, he never took the initiative to kill them.

I hope you can stay. After all, all your property, including houses and land, is still here!

The land deed that the Kingdom of Mercia has signed will not be invalidated!

At the same time, as long as you stay, you can be exempted from taxes for three years! I will personally implement this law to ensure the safety of all the villagers!

Finally, if all uncles and aunts still want to leave, I, Elizabeth Elan, ask you.

For nothing else, just to accompany me, don't let me live too lonely in these two provinces

Is it okay? "

The farmers who gathered around looked at each other.

Their houses and fields are all in this province.

If they can stay here, who is willing to evacuate with their families?

At the same time, three years of tax exemption.

If what Elizabeth said is true, it means that every household can have a lot of food left. After selling it, it can be exchanged for a lot of silver coins, which is a very cost-effective business to repair houses or hire people to reclaim wasteland.

"Princess Elizabeth is the patron saint of the poor in Mercia. Since the princess has spoken, I am willing to believe her and follow your footsteps!"

"Yes, I used to dream of Princess Elizabeth becoming my lord, but I didn't expect that this day would actually come."

"I hope she can control these terrible Vikings and stop them from killing again."

Devoted to improving the lives of the poor throughout her life, and living with orphans, the poor and the have-nots almost all the time, Elizabeth's appeal among the lower classes of Mercia is extraordinary.

A few words quickly spread among the farmers, and almost everyone turned around and returned home.

**

At this time, Loki was filled with emotion.

If there really is a Holy Lord Christ in this world, this Mercian princess is really an angel sent to her by the Holy Lord.

This was the second time Elizabeth had saved him from danger.

For the first time, she blinded a sudden army of Cyclops, giving the Vikings in Stonehelm Fortress a chance to win the war.

The second time, now, he allowed himself to gain at least 100,000 more people out of thin air.

This prevented him from getting two empty provinces.

Subsequently, the girl also carried out several measures.

First, she collected nearly 40,000 orphans from all over Mercia and asked Loki to distribute them to the Vikings for support.

This was not difficult for the Vikings. After winning this war, everyone gained a lot of money. What's more, they already have rich experience in raising foreign children.

When there is money in the pocket, having three or four more children per family is not a problem.

In order to prevent children from being abused when entering their new homes, the Princess of Mercia also issued several decrees in the name of the "Duchess of Normandy", requiring that all children must survive to the age of 18 in good health, otherwise taxes will be doubled.

Under Loki's coercion, all the Vikings signed the agreement.

He knew that this was the way problems were solved in the civilized society of the Western Continent. In the girl's mind, after she solves a problem for herself, she can naturally make a request.

Not to mention taking over 40,000 orphans, even if he asked his Viking warriors to raise 40,000 wild donkeys, Loki would agree without hesitation.

Time advances slowly like this.

Autumn has passed and a new round of winter is coming.

Seeing that the dilapidated Wanghai Fortress was about to be repaired, Loki and Elizabeth's marriage was also put on the agenda.
