The Rise of Iceland

Chapter 25: Ambition

   Olaf and Hudick and his group of seven lay on the back of some bushes more than two hundred steps east of the pine forest. Hudike’s eyes had better be the most forward and looked west for a while.

   A little bit of time passed, and the shadow under the sun also turned from west to north.

   Four guards on horseback gradually appeared on the blue-yellow ground in the distance. They were lying on the horseback as if asleep, and Hadar behind him walked with his head down and one foot shallow.

   "Attention!"

   Hudik whispered and took out his bow and arrow and aimed at the approaching guard.

   Hudick uses an English longbow, which can shoot two hundred steps away, and has an effective killing distance of one hundred and fifty steps. He secretly estimated and entered the range of the guards, with a high concentration of energy.

   Olaf and the others also cheered up, squeezed the weapons in their hands, and waited for the guards to get closer.

   The four guards stopped their horses when they were about a hundred steps closer to Hudick and others, then they swayed to the side after dismounting, took off their pants and squatted down. It took a while before they came back slowly, clutching their stomachs.

   It took a long time for the four of them to get on the horse, and finally urged Hadar to go faster with his father and mother.

   Seeing the guards looking sickly, Hudick and the others were pleasantly surprised. Knowing that the toxin of the potatoes had an effect, they were more convinced by Olaf.

   Hudick, who originally planned to do it within a hundred paces, saw the four guards lying on horseback and not having time to pay attention to the surrounding environment, so he planned to let them come closer to do it.

   He kept his breath and waited for the guards to come closer for fifty steps, and their facial features could almost be seen through the gaps in the bushes. Hudike only let go and shot an arrow, and at the same time shouted: "Hands!"

   Hudick flew out with an arrow, swish through the back of the headed bearded man lying on horseback, leaving him still immersed in abdominal pain and died.

   "Boom!"

The four horses were still moving forward, but the dead guards fell headlong and made a heavy noise. The remaining three guards turned around and saw a long arrow emerging from the beard. They hurriedly got up and picked up. Look forward to the weapon on horseback.

   "Wow!"

Another feather arrow flew to hit a man's face door and shot him off the horse. The remaining two saw four or five men rushing in front of them with weapons in their hands, rushing to resist the abdominal pain, gritted their teeth, picked up weapons, and prepared to charge forward. .

At this time, the remaining two guards had blurred vision due to diarrhea. They couldn't see Olaf and Hoskud. They thought they were refugees who hadn't eaten enough to rob them, thinking that they would be defeated by riding a horse. .

   Kadir saw that he was only twenty steps away from the guard, took down the short spear at his waist and threw it forward.

   Two iron spears flew out with a whining wind, one flew out of the forearm of the guard on the left, and the other centered on the heart of the guard on the left.

   This guard was also unable to avoid being blocked because of his body's loss of strength and confusion, otherwise he would never be stabbed to death by a flying spear.

   The last remaining guard arrived in front of Hoskard, Kalm, and Heine in an instant. The three dared not stop, and hurriedly avoided on both sides. If the guards were at their peak, they would ride out a semi-circular arc to kill one person first.

   But now he can't control the horse to make this kind of action, so he can only turn the horse's head and rush towards Kalm.

  Kalm and Hoskurd also used the traditional Viking skills to throw a short spear and axe at the guard. Heine's swordsmanship was good, so he approached from one side and pierced the guard with a sword when the guard was approaching.

   Three or four flying spears and flying axes smashed down with their head and face. The guard dodged two flying axes, but was hit by a flying axe and a flying spear on the shoulder blade and arm and fell off his horse.

   Heine turned his feet in front of him, and with a "puff" the rapier in his hand pierced into his body from the gap in the guard's leather armor, and the guard uttered a low pain from his throat and convulsed to death.

Olaf ran to Hadar quickly and separated the ropes that bound his father with a knife. Hadar moved his hands and feet and walked to the body of the guard who had been turned into corpses. After turning around, he said in a low tone: "Killed Guards, Iceland and Denmark, Norway, and the Faroe Islands can't tolerate us! We can only go to Hagrid!"

   "Pull the corpse away and bury it!"

Hudik stepped forward and pulled up the leg of a guard, and then everyone worked together to pull the four corpses to a remote place and buried them. Then they returned to the woods to lead the horses, and a group of eight people and eleven horses drove west, in order to prevent the road. Recognized as causing trouble, Hadar also wrapped half of his face in a cloak.

   On the morning of the third day, Hadar and his party arrived at the Hikkadal area, which is close to Dagang, and it takes less than a day to reach Dagang on horseback.

   "Siegfors may be singing and dancing with Corsvin in the Governor's Mansion, drinking red wine and dancing with the ladies of the various families... But we are going to exile overseas soon, and we are going to fight for territory with wild people... Damn it!"

   Hadar looked at the far west, his sharp eyes seemed to want to kill enemies in Dagang through the void.

   "There are nearly a hundred governor's guards in Dagang! There are also the servants of the Siegfus family, the guards of taverns, shops, and cattle stores. We can't avenge our revenge!"

   Hudik reminded him anxiously that he was worried about Hadar's anger and doing stupid things.

Hadar looked back at the worried gazes of some of his closest relatives and friends, and smiled: "Up to five days, five days later, before the guards return to Dagang, Colesvin will send someone to investigate, and we can't hide it if we kill and escape. It's over! These four or five days are our prime time! We will soon meet in Herut Village and leave by boat! But we still have to come back! It's just time for revenge when we come back next time!"

Perhaps after killing the guards and overcoming psychological barriers, Hadar became majestic and ambitious. Olaf knew that the Thirty Years’ War was going on on the European continent, and the Black Death and war were raging. The attention and strength of all countries are limited to the battlefield. Overseas colonization is also the initial stage of backwardness. Maybe you can be bolder and more ambitious. In the future, you may not be able to sweep Iceland to avenge your hatred with a large army, and enter Europe at the same time. A great figure in the history of history.

"Dad! Uncles! I think we come back again to liberate Iceland, so that we Icelanders can free themselves from Danish rule, and it's time for us to be the masters of our own country!" Olaf said and looked around. Everyone outside Hadar was shocked.

   Olaf's immature face glowed red, his upper body sitting on horseback straightened, his eyes firm and excited, his face full of passion and longing for the future.

In the eyes of Hudik and others, they felt that Olaf’s bravery and ambitions are different from ordinary people. This is a talent that transcends age, knowledge, knowledge and status. This discovery makes everyone think that what Olaf said may really be realized in the future. .

Heine recalled a few years later and still remembered that in the Hoykadal area, Olaf rode his horse and pointed at the big port in the mist. The heroic temperament of a lion and the great ambition of changing the world in the tone of a lion, he believed At that moment, he truly became a close friend of Olaf from the heart.
