"Master El, that's almost it. Further ahead is the land of the Kingdom of Jutland. Those Vikings are not easy to mess with."
Seeing El looking at the land of Schleswig with great interest, Knight Gore's eyes flashed with helplessness again, and he began to pray in his heart.
Gods bless you, don't let this young master have any more thoughts. This journey is really thrilling.
First, during the sneak attack on Count Ditmarschen's army, Count Ditmarschen did not choose to run away immediately. Instead, he led his bodyguards to charge towards El's army.
With the heroic performance of Count Dietmarschen and his bodyguards, the morale of the Franconian cavalry was once shaken, and they almost left El and ran away.
At the critical moment, if Knight Gore and Otto's bodyguards had not rushed across the flank of Count Ditmarschen's army, it is hard to say what the outcome of the Battle of Ditmarschen would have been.
After finally relying on luck to capture Earl of Ditmarschen and plunder the entire Earl of Ditmarschen, the task was successfully completed. However, El did not seem to want to stop, and led the army all the way to the north.
Arriving at the border of the Kingdom of Jutland and the Kingdom of East Frankia.
This time, Knight Gore was so frightened that he quickly tried to dissuade him.
Obviously, it was impossible for El to listen to the advice.
"Knight Gore, look, we captured Ditmarchen so easily.
This shows what?
It shows that people nearby are completely unprepared!
That being the case, why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to expand our results?"
"Yes, Master El, you are right. However, we have also raided the gathering place of the Saxons and have successfully completed the task. It is time to return to Bremen.
Master Otto, I'm afraid he is waiting for us anxiously at this time."
After hearing what El said, Knight Gore had already resigned himself to his fate. He knew that he might not be able to persuade him anymore, but he still wanted to make a symbolic struggle to avoid being scolded without even a word of defense when he returned.
"No, why should Knight Gor pretend not to understand?
I mean, since the Saxons were unprepared, the Vikings who thought we were only fighting the Saxons were also unprepared, so why didn't we take the opportunity to rob the Vikings too.
They are also enemies of the kingdom!"
El looked at the Gore Knight with twinkling eyes.
Knight Gore still smiled bitterly and shook his head to express his attitude.
"Master El, the Vikings are poor and barbaric, and there really is nothing to rob.
Besides, the kingdom has finally managed to get along well with those Viking barbarians in recent years, so we might be in trouble.
If a conflict breaks out between the two sides, we will definitely be punished.
forget it..."
"Who knew we did this?" El curled his lips now, not caring about the diplomatic problems it would cause. "The people who did it were all Saxons.
Besides, why are only those Vikings allowed to plunder the kingdom and not us?
There is no such reason in the world.
We have cleaned up the unclean people in the temple for the gods, and it is time to do something to spread the gospel for the gods."
If Otto were here, he would put his arm around El's shoulders affectionately and praise his brother mercilessly.
This guy is simply a born politician. Why, because he is shameless and can even deceive himself.
Good guy, is that called cleaning up the unclean ones for the gods?
Knight Gor is too lazy to complain, you are just robbing the gods.
Besides, are you going to spread the gospel of the gods?
When did the gospel of the gods mean killing and robbing people?
But El was right about one thing at least. It was the Saxons who did it. Who would have known it was them.
When we finally checked, how could we possibly find him and El.
"Okay, Master El, you have to promise that we can't go too deep into the Viking land.
Those Vikings are very ferocious, and if they summon tribal warriors, it won’t be easy for us to deal with them.”
"Don't worry." El smiled slightly, with a ruthless look in his eyes. "I have made arrangements, and there will definitely be no accidents.
However, Knight Gore, you don’t have to follow me. You lead your troops to plunder the Vikings in the east.
As for the north, I can just do it myself."
Knight Gore nodded numbly, "Good guy, I didn't expect this second young master to be so courageous. It wasn't enough to rob one Viking tribal kingdom, but he was also planning to rob another one."
However, since we have already grabbed one, what difference does it make if we grab another one?
"So, this is why you robbed all the way to Viborg in the middle of Jutland, this is why you robbed all of the Baltic Sea, and this is why you chopped off the hand of the Prince of Jutland.
It’s all because, now that we’ve come, we’ve come?”
In the city of Bremen, Otto sat at the head of the table, with Werner and several Franconian nobles sitting next to him.
Knights El and Gore, who were still high-spirited before, lowered their heads in the face of Otto's questioning.
"Speak, are you mute?
If you are so capable, why not rob all the Vikings?
Do you still remember what military order I gave?
Look at the good things you have done.
The King of Jutland is going crazy. He is now recruiting Viking warriors and preparing to go to war with the kingdom. It is all the fault of the two of you."
Otto continued to speak, but the two of them remained silent, almost burying their heads in their chests.
After getting the help of the Saxon nobles, Otto easily opened the gate of Bremen and successfully took over the city of Bremen.
Immediately afterwards, following the same method, the few remaining strongholds in the Bremen area also fell into Otto's hands.
This time, Otto did not go on a killing spree. He only took away the church's wealth and at the same time dealt with some of the church's evil-doing priests.
This was not because Otto had changed his gender, but because Werner's arrival brought him news.
The Duke Bach elected by the Saxons had already joined the Duke of Franconia and was named the new border count of Bremen. The scope of the county included the entire northern half of Saxony including Bremen.
Now that Bach has surrendered, the war is about to end, so there is no need to continue taking action. These things can naturally be left to the Duke of Franconia.
You can't bear the infamy yourself, let the Duke take all the benefits.
Just when Otto stopped in Bremen for repairs and waited for the Duke of Franconia to join him north, El, who had disappeared for a long time, ran back with more than 5,000 people and brought Otto a message.
That is, he robbed all the Viking settlements along the Baltic Sea coast, and accidentally cut off the hand of the Prince of Jutland who came to stop the robbery.
This was a hornet's nest. The King of Jutland had such a son, so he naturally wanted to avenge his son. Even Otto in Bremen heard the news of the Viking gathering.
I thought it was the poor English people who were going to suffer, but I didn't expect that it was me who was going to suffer.
How could Otto not be angry when someone eats melon on himself?
This basket is a little too big.
Under Otto's painstaking performance, Count Werner had no choice but to come out and smooth things over and said with a smile.
"Don't be angry, Count Otto. I think what Baron El is doing is fine. Do you think so?"
