You and me under the world tree

Or is he not at ease with his uncle who is the king, but trusts himself?

Perhaps because of getting along a lot, Hilda's thoughts at this moment couldn't help but diverge.

She thinks a little too much.

However, it was Herwaller's next words that caught her attention.

"But we have a total of 2 people, more than 6000 strong young men in their prime, more than 6000 equally young women, and the remaining thousands are children and the elderly who were exiled together figure."

"We will not let you abandon them. Even if the old man is no longer physically strong, even if he is no longer a warrior, their wisdom is what we need."

Howard knew exactly what Hewale was worried about. It was nothing more than worrying that they only wanted soldiers and forced them to abandon the other part.

But obviously, with Siegfried's personality, he would never do that.

He can't take care of everything, but at least he will ensure that he will do what he can.

"We will take everyone away." Facing Hewerer's gaze, Siegfried said seriously.

"Thank you for your kindness."

I don't know whether she knew she should pretend to be weak at this time, but she was really moved. The voice of the Pirate Queen was trembling at this moment.

She lowered her head, not looking into their eyes.

She has always done things with her chest held high, but maintaining this style is actually very tiring.

Hilda, who is also a woman, understands this, and she even has such an inexplicable sense of resonance.

But just when she was about to open her mouth to say something to comfort her, He Huale suddenly raised her head.

What fragile?

what tired?

nonexistent!

She was still the queen who said a word that no one else dared to fart.

"Then, the last question, ships... To carry so many people on the voyage, we not only need a detailed and careful battle plan, we also need a large number of ships."

Chapter 5: Two options

It's true that Herwalle's personality and temper tend to be cruel and violent, but this is not without its advantages.

At least she never beat around the bush when talking about these, and she never made any hints in the words of communication.

So in a few words, after confirming the cooperative relationship, she quickly put forward a series of requirements of her own.

Material and population, these things are actually not the focus, the most important thing now is the 'hardware' condition.

"Ship, this is something that must be resolved." She said

Moreover, Hewale is not the kind of woman who likes to leave problems to other people to solve. As a leader who is seeking a way out for her group of people, she must try her best to show her existence.

She needs the initiative and the right to speak, and it is impossible for her to completely hand over the command or decision-making power.

So immediately after, she said her proposal here.

"There are two solutions. This actually depends on you...whether you can afford to wait." She said

Then, her eyes swept over the other three listeners.

Hilda and Siegfried didn't seem to want to speak, they just shut up and listened.

However, at this moment, Hewale's heart was inexplicably beating.

Not because of anything else, just because of the existence of that man: Sage Horde.

He and the people present didn't seem to be at the same level, and the reports of those subordinates in the abandoned port were also: if you follow the people, you will lose such reports.

Compared with Siegfried and Hilda, who moved quite regularly, the sage Hodder could disappear even on the island, even those with the best eyesight above the lighthouse could not find him.

It's almost like a ghost.

And more importantly, the sage Hodder was a figure who lived at the same time as Siegmund.

Hewale himself is not familiar with this name, but there are always some old fighters around him who have heard of this name.

Although the 50-[-]-year-old veterans around her certainly couldn't explain why, but according to them, the rise of the Volsung clan could not have happened without his help.

This unpretentious speech alone is enough to illustrate his ability.

Hewale didn't know whether it was difficult to win the title of "sage" among the reckless Volsung clan, but she at least knew how to count.

A person who can go all the way from Volsunger's peak era to the present, this person can become a master without dying.

The man in the cloak and battle armor in front of her represented not only the word 'wisdom', but what made her feel heavy pressure was the experience accumulated over the past few decades.

So when she said these words, her eyes never left the sage.

Finally, she suddenly dropped the topic.

"It's all said here, Mr. Hodder, you should understand what I'm talking about."

"certainly……"

Hodder's reaction was fairly quick, he just turned his head and set his eyes on the woods behind.

"There is a lot of wood here, and you can still use the bones of sea beasts here. Although you don't know how much you can make, but if you collect wood, you can always make a ship."

Hearing the calm words of the sage Hodder, Hewale couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Sure enough, his share of wisdom is genuine.

Although Hewale didn't know where the opponent's upper limit was, nor did he know what the opponent didn't know.

However, at least she is very clear that the situation here has always been under the control of the other party.

Of course, even ideas.

"We have very few ships at our disposal."

There are indeed many original words, because when I was exiled, I used a boat.

However, when the exiled fleet arrived in the northern waters, because they were not familiar with the terrain here and did not adapt to the rules here, they were initially attacked a lot.

Up to now, there are only these people and ships left.

"Building a ship is destined to take a long time. You have also seen that in order to survive, we usually have heavy work every day. The time for building a ship will definitely be extended indefinitely."

"There is no need to worry about this. There can be many sources of ships."

At this time, she didn't know if it was Hilda's own illusion. She always felt that Huo De glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally at this time.

Later, it turned out that this did not seem to be an illusion.

"It would be a good way to rent ships from the Kingdom of Iceland."

"A ship?"

At this time, Hilda finally understood.

In fact, it is also very easy to understand.

If people here are looking for speed, or if Siegfried can't wait, then renting a ship from Iceland is indeed a good choice.

However, before she or Siegfried could say anything, Hodder directly rejected this paragraph.

"However, if that is the case, it would be too overwhelming. After all, it will take a lot of effort to mobilize the ships, so it will inevitably leak the news."

For a long time, Siegfried and the others have been operating in secret, and regardless of the gods and Valkyries who have already known his identity, the humans in Midgard basically do not know their whereabouts.

Of course, it also includes King Legney of the Hendin family.

Except for King Griple and a few others, none of these people knew that Siegfried was still alive, and that he had even come to the northern seas to recruit troops.

"During this period of mobilizing Icelandic ships, news will inevitably leak out, and our advantage will be lost, so we cannot borrow ships from Iceland."

"So, are you going to wait here and build the ship from scratch?"

Hilda may have been unintentional. As an outsider, she just followed what she said, and she didn't know if she thought about it or not.

But Hodder couldn't help but glance at her again as she said this.

"About this kind of thing, I think I should ask Miss Hewerer, right? After all, Siegfried and I have been waiting for a long time, and I don't care about continuing to wait."

not good……

When he heard the sage kick the ball back directly, He Huale couldn't help but feel that it was tricky.

A touch of complicated emotions inevitably appeared on her somewhat terrifying pale face.

Although she knew that it was extremely dangerous to have a dialogue with the sage, and it was basically impossible to take advantage of it, the speed of the sage's counterattack was still beyond his imagination.

Controlled from start to finish...

She originally handed over this choice to them in order to gain some initiative to a certain extent, but in the end he gave the choice back instead.

After all, as they say, they don't seem to mind the time, since Siegfried is young.

However, the pirates living in this northern sea are different.

But to be precise, it was Herwaller's own idea.

Lagoza is already pregnant. If you start building ships now, you will need at least one year to manufacture a large number of ships.

But at that time, she will give birth in this environment.

Can you afford to wait?

The sage probably saw through the situation of the North Wind Pirates, so he returned the topic to himself without hesitation.

can't do...

Howler couldn't afford to wait.

"I don't see any need to waste time on this," she finally said.

"Then it's very simple, just go and grab it. Anyway, there are ships in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, right? Amstel, that place is the largest port in the Netherlands. We can also follow the Rhine River to the Rhine Ferry , there can go directly to the royal city: Volsung."

From the beginning to the end, except for "choice", she couldn't even get in a complete sentence, and the rhythm of the words was always controlled by the sage.

"What a terrible man..."

Chapter 6: Volsunger is invincible

Howler would never have imagined that someone would get a rough idea of ​​her character through various channels before contacting her.

That's why she appears extremely passive during the conversation.

In fact, the two options mentioned above can work, and if they build their own ships or rent ships, they will have the advantage of "landing".

This is a good game for the pirates, because they have no place to attack.

Even if it landed on an uninhabited beach, it would be no problem to go all the way to Wangcheng.

But the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, time and information, and this tactic pays attention to surprise attacks.

In case the news is leaked on the way, the effect may be greatly reduced.

However, Volsung's heirs are special after all.

Siegfried, holding the holy sword in his hand, is invincible on the frontal battlefield, and the holy sword of wrath released with all his strength is enough for him to form an army by himself, directly deterring the battlefield.

Moreover, this kind of deterrence does not even have to cooperate with Midgard's unique sea surprise attack tactics.

Even the second way would work, and this second way is what Hodder is saying now: grab.

To put it simply, it is to attack a certain port with lightning speed, occupy it and take all the ships there for its own use.

"Although the Netherlands has shrunk a lot in terms of maritime power compared to before, the scale of Amstel is still the same as before. It is still the largest commercial port in the Netherlands."

Then, Hodder paused slightly.

"Do you need me to bring out a map?"

He didn't set his eyes on Hilda and Siegfried, they must have memorized the map by heart.

After all, Siegfried is the descendant of the Volsung family, and he will return to his homeland sooner or later, so he must have firmly recorded the map around the Netherlands.

Not to mention Hilda, after all, Iceland is the princess of the kingdom at the end of human territory.

As a kingdom that often trades with various places, its heirs must memorize the sea charts, not to mention a large map of the atrium world is placed in the captain's cabin of the building.
