Stade. This place was once besieged by the Alemannic coalition assembled by Duke Otto. Duke Otto hoped to cut off the retreat of the pirate kingdom coalition. However, it is equipped with ballistae moved from Najirfa.
, scorpion crossbows and other heavy weapons, and Amy reinforced the city defense in advance, so the attack of the Alemanni Federation coalition did not go smoothly. After Amy defeated the Alemanni Federation coalition head-on, peace returned here.
"It's the King of Sweden! The King of Sweden is back!"
The pirates who were on sentry duty on the wall saw Ella coming from a distance and shouted excitedly to their comrades under the wall. They opened the gate of the wall and rushed to Ella like a swarm of swarms.
, expressing their inner excitement through words and body movements.
"Don't make any noise! Don't make any noise!" Ella made a "quiet" gesture.
When the pirates in the front row saw it, they immediately shouted to the people behind them: "The King of Sweden told you not to make any noise! What are you talking about there!"
The pirates passed this word down from level to level, but after a while, the entire city suddenly became silent.
"Where are the other lords now?" Ella asked, "What's the situation with the recent war?"
"We have temporarily stopped our attack!" the pirates replied. "The lords are currently stationed near Bremen and are closely watching Alemanni's movements!"
Ella nodded.
"I have reached an armistice agreement with the Alemannic Federation. Let them all bring their troops back. Tell them that I will wait for them in Stade."
So the pirates sent the messenger out as Ella ordered. Ella took Habiba and Gottfried to Najirfa.
"This ship was built by Ivar the Boneless. It was originally called Nagirfa. At that time, the hull of the ship was covered with nails, and we finally dug them out. Let alone digging, even if we buried the dug nails
We were buried in the ground for two full days. But now the ship is called the 'Flying Zealander'."
Ella shows off her love boat to Habiba and Gottfried.
"There are many cabins on the ship. It can carry a lot of trade goods and even raise livestock. There was a bear here before! The bear was sold, but you can take a look at the sheep I raised..."
Ella pushed open the door of a cabin. But before she even stepped in, she shouted: "Where's the sheep? Where's my sheep!"
"Eat...eat it all." A pirate following them whispered, "The lords gathered here before, but there was really not enough food..."
"Gu?" Ella felt something was not right and asked repeatedly: "Where is the cow? Where is the deer? Where is the mead? Where is the smoked fish?"
Every time Ella asked, the pirate shook his head.
"You... you!" Ella held her head and wailed, "These are all trade goods!"
Having said that, Aila still used the remaining supplies on the ship to treat Habiba and his disciples to a good meal. Habiba ate three roast chickens in one go, stuffed two more into his pocket, and took them away with him.
Some smoked fish.
Afterwards, Ella invited them to see the counterweight trebuchet and other equipment she designed herself. Gottfried was extremely surprised that the Pirate Kingdom could build such equipment.
"The Pirate Kingdom now needs a variety of talents to develop its territory." Ella once again extended her invitation, "Teacher Gottfried, I hope you can come to my school to teach mathematics. Habiba...
…Your knowledge of magic is very rich, and I would like to hire you as a consultant.”
Gottfried agreed. Habiba refused with the same reason as before. So Ella held a farewell ceremony for Habiba. After that, Habiba got into the carriage and returned to his Dietmar
Apply.
"Your master seems to be living in a difficult situation. Why is he unwilling to serve in my court?"
After Habiba left, Ella asked Gottfried.
"Master is practicing Kabbalah. In order to successfully cross the abyss between humans and gods, he needs more knowledge."
"Then he should accept my proposal? Books are very valuable. If he works in my court, he can buy more books..."
"It is a pity that the knowledge that Master is pursuing does not exist in books. My Master often tells me that the highest knowledge should come from oneself, not books."
Ella was confused when she heard this: "The supreme knowledge comes from oneself? What do you mean?"
"Just like the formula that connects gods and humans, I can understand its meaning, but the master cannot. He must find his own knowledge - for this, he needs to travel continuously."
Ella nodded in understanding.
At this moment, a panicked voice came from the distance: 'King of Sweden, no... it's not good!'
The source of the sound was the messenger sent by Ella to Bremen. He ran up to Ella, panting heavily. Ella asked him to sit down first, and then asked someone to bring him a glass of water. He took a sip.
After being underwater, the messenger's mood became slightly more stable.
Then Ella asked: "What happened? Speak slowly."
"Bremen... Something happened in Bremen! I saw many soldiers and horses surrounding Bremen, and there was a fierce battle going on there!"
There was a trace of surprise in Ella's tone: "A fight started? What's going on? Is it the lord of the Alemany Federation who is attacking Bremen?"
"No... that's not the case. It's our people who are surrounding Bremen. Those lords are all besieging Bremen!"
"What's going on? Hasn't Bremen been occupied by us for a long time? Why are our people beating Bremen again?"
"I...I don't know. As soon as I got there, there was a war."
Ella frowned slightly
"Then have you asked the lords outside what happened? Have you conveyed my words to those lords?"
"Say, say! I said that the King of Sweden has signed a peace agreement with the Alemannic Federation and is now in Stade. He asked them to stop all military operations immediately and return immediately."
"They didn't agree?"
"No...they were very happy when they heard that the King of Sweden had returned safely."
"Then why on earth are they still attacking Werder Bremen?"
"Yes... that's right!" The messenger suddenly remembered something and clapped his hands and said, "They said they would come back with the traitor's head and present it to the King of Sweden!"
"Rebel?" Ella had a premonition of something and stood up with a bang, "Who is that 'rebel' talking about?"
"I don't know... I just heard those people shouting: 'The enemy is in the council chamber'!"
"The Bremen City Council Hall..." someone whispered to the side, "I remember that seems to be where Miss Amy lives..."
Ella pushed away the crowd, grabbed a horse and ran out of the way.
