king of ros

Chapter 168 Martial Arts Tournament
Under the increasingly hostile gaze of his wife, Rostislav finally came up with a name, and the reason why he thought of this name was simple, it was the name of his eldest son in history.

"Rurik, Rurik Rosdislavitch Rurik."

Hearing this name, Zooey paused for a moment. Of course she knew it was the name of the ancestor of the Rurik family. It is normal to name the ancestor, but seeing his panicked look just now, it was really not a temporary idea. ?
But in the end she still sighed, he is the father of the son, it is his right to name him, and she doesn't want to care about anything.

"Okay, little guy, your name is Rurik now."

The prince's wife looked at the child in her arms. Her face was full of maternal love, and there was still a sense of unreality in her heart. Is this the child I gave birth to after going through so much pain?Then the maternal love became stronger.

And Rostislav silently withdrew, and called all the idlers away. Zoe had a hard time giving birth, so she had to rest well.

He has other things to attend to.

The fact that the prince of Moscow had a son quickly spread throughout Northeast Russia following Rostislav's generous rewards to the citizens that day.

After hearing the news, dignitaries from various cities, walled city owners from all over the world, wealthy businessmen, local powerful people, and other monarchs sent their gifts to celebrate the birth of the descendants of the Muscovite princes.

Therefore, Rostislav's reputation is undoubtedly reflected. As a Rus prince with a series of great achievements, his reputation has spread farther than he thought, and he must be famous.

After all, this is an era of blood and fire. Everyone likes heroes who can bring victory. Such heroes will naturally be sought after and praised.

Thousands of people flooded into Moscow in just one month, and members of the Rurik family naturally sent envoys. After all, this is the first child of the fourth generation of the Yaroslav family, and the political significance represented It's too big.

Many people came besides Russia, even Norway, Poland, Hungary, and even Bulgar sent envoys and gifts.

What surprised Rostislav the most was that the Patriarch of Constantinople also sent a priest to congratulate him.

Although it was mostly a routine questioning, it meant that Constantinople paid attention to his little prince, and it meant that he had registered there, which was of a different nature.

People in exotic costumes can be seen everywhere on the streets of Moscow now. They bring novel commodities and stories from far away, making the streets of Moscow more prosperous.

And more importantly, more are still on the way.

After realizing how huge the flow of people would be brought by the birth of his son, the prince of Moscow decided to seize this opportunity and announced that he would hold a grand tournament to celebrate the birth of his son, and welcomed warriors from all over Russia and even the whole of Europe. This wins glory and wealth.

Anyone can participate if they want to.

This undoubtedly ignited the enthusiasm of everyone. In the era of blood and fire, killing and fighting are undoubtedly the highest hot spots.

After the news spread, people from all over Russia who had no intention of interested in Moscow also came to Moscow. They packed their bags and headed to Moscow, and even some warriors from outside the territory came with them.

As with any celebration there is a huge flow of people, and the inhabitants of Moscow's neighborhood were immediately attracted to the city like a magnet.

Countless tents stood erect on the open spaces in Moscow, and the city gates were always filled with crowds. This city suddenly became the focus of the entire north.

"Varu, Sogil, is this Moscow? It's really prosperous."

Outside the city of Moscow, in the place where people gather, a strange team in the eyes of everyone is looking down on the prosperous city.

The reason why it is called strange is that their personnel composition is extremely complex. In this team, you can see Norse people in iron armor, nomads wrapped in fur, and Russian costumes, but it is difficult to hide their special faces. prairie people.

And the man who spoke was wrapped in fur, wearing a cuffed fur hat, and dressed like a nomad, but he had blond hair and his face was the standard Ross face.

"Yes, this is Moscow, and it has become much more prosperous since I left."

Sogil, who was wearing armor, came up, his tone was full of exclamation, he didn't expect that in just seven or eight months, the prince of Moscow could create such a battle.

"Sokal, have you seen the prosperity of Moscow? Believe me, I will introduce you to the prince when the time comes."

Varu, who was dressed as a Ross aristocrat, appeared, but unfortunately his face was too prairie, especially when he was talking with Sokal, the sense of weirdness was the strongest.

"Then thank you very much." Sokal said.

John Sokal, a Rose-Poloway half-breed from the prairie, whose mother was only a chief's slave, and he was the product of an accident.

But even though it was an accident, his father treated him fairly well, and he was the only son, so he enjoyed the education of the heir to the chief.

After his father died in that land in response to Khan Bruce's call to conquer Rus, John Sokal was pushed into the fore to lead the tribe that had suffered heavy losses due to the expedition.

At that time, Caoyin Khan's death caused chaos, and other tribes hated his mixed-race status and attacked him. Sokal struggled to block the wave after wave of attacks from this group of people. In the end, he could only lead the people to migrate. Many small tribes have been annexed, and the tribe has grown again.

After the soldiers are strong, most of the tribes will return to the grassland again to continue the endless struggle for hegemony, but Sokal doesn't want to stay in the grassland, he just wants to leave here.

Someone asked him why, and he only replied: "I don't know about other places, but the grassland is a monster that will devour everything. I don't want my life to be spent there."

And he also wanted to see his mother's hometown, to see if he could find a peaceful life there.

But after arriving in Rose, he learned that the ruler of Kyiv no longer welcomed the arrival of nomads, which made him disappointed and at a loss.

Just when he didn't know what to do, he learned that his old friend Varu was now in Northeastern Ross, and he took refuge in the Prince of Ross who killed the Khan, so Sokal decided to join him.

Sokal successfully found Varu, but because his tribe was too large, Varu did not dare to accept it rashly. After all, his men and herdsmen who did not deal with him totaled more than 2 people, and Sokal It directly brought 7000 people, which is too simple to turn customers into the main.

So Varu took Sokal to Moscow and asked the prince to give the powerful chief a piece of land.

And on the way, they encountered Sogil, a Norse team.

The reason why Sogil came to Moscow was simple. He was attracted by the tournament, and more importantly, he had decided to give his loyalty to the ruler of Moscow.

Sogil hurried back to Riga before, and left Ross after hastily suppressed the local tribesmen, and the reason for such a haste was simple, that is, Riga encountered threats from the witch prince Vseslav.

The Prince of Witchcraft has been expanding towards the Baltic Sea over the years. This is also the established development direction of the Principality of Polotsk for many years. Relying on this expansion, the Principality has become stronger and stronger.

It's a pity that Sogier's Yoms battle group is not a fuel-efficient lamp. After a fierce battle, they successfully forced the witchcraft prince's crusade to retreat, and after paying a huge price, they exchanged for an armistice agreement.

After that fierce battle, Sogil understood one thing. He had to find shelter from other directions before he could face the power of the prince of witchcraft. strength.

He knew very well that Riga alone would never be able to defeat the witch prince, and even a crusade team bothered him so much, let alone the Polotsk army.

And Rostislav was his best choice, so he chose to return to Northeast Ross.
