king of ros

For Rostislav, this kind of meeting was quite boring. Every day, he kept watching Domhnall play bureaucratic, and then he continued to speak bureaucratically, but such bureaucratic speech was a must.

He has just settled on Rose now, and there are so many things in various places. Only when these things are sorted out can he relax.

Rostislav was so busy that he didn't even have time to pay the rations, because he spent many nights in meetings or reading documents, which made Zuo Yin very dissatisfied, but the new Grand Duchess still stayed with her husband.

Zuo Yin is also very happy that her husband became the Grand Duke of Kyiv, and this city also has a different feeling for her.

I think she was sold to the north as a "goods" back then, and married a prince who ruled the backcountry of Ross, but now the prince of the backcountry has become the ruler of the whole of Russia and the master of Kyiv. Things are really changing.

In such a life, Rostislav received a very unexpected visitor, his name was Prolev.

However, when Rostislav saw the name, he didn't react at all. He had already forgotten the captain who was funded by him ten years ago, and he just thought he was an ordinary audience member.

And when Prolev walked in that day, Rostislav even thought that he had traveled through time again, because this middle-aged man who knew the vicissitudes of life was wearing a hat that must have been full of erect feathers. This hat... this thing Isn't it the most standard configuration of Indians in various works of later generations?
At that time, Rostislav was so stunned that he forgot to speak. In the end, Zuo Yin finished speaking instead of her husband. After asking about the visitor's origin and purpose, Rostislav was not embarrassed. Zuo Yin was quite puzzled at the time, why her husband did this The second time I suddenly pulled my hips.

And after Prolev's rambling narration, Rostislav remembered the crazy captain he had sponsored ten years ago who wanted to go to Vinland.

After learning the identity of this person, Rostislav was really surprised, because it has been a full ten years. In the past ten years, Rostislav has forgotten such a person. After all, he intends to assist this person to go to Vinland. In fact, there was not much hope for it.

With the level of navigation in this era, reaching Vinland was a narrow escape. Subconsciously, Rostislav still thought that this person would not be able to get there, but now he came back and stood in front of Rostislav.

After reacting, Rostislav called for his own soldiers and took the captain down. Rostislav wanted to hear his story, but not now.

Immediately after the business of the day was completed, Rostislav summoned his unexpected visitor, who wanted to hear about the captain's adventures, which he believed must be magnificent.

Facing the eagerness of the prince, Prolev also seemed very excited. For an adventurer who went to a distant place, there is nothing better than being treated warmly in his hometown.

And then Prolev told his story.

Since Novgorod's departure, Prolev's voyage was not very smooth. During the period, he experienced various incidents, and finally arrived in Vinland after a whole year of tossing. …

During this period, they received great help from the Norse people in Iceland and Greenland. Although the Norse people in these two places failed to colonize Vinland in the end, they actually went to Vinland from time to time, mainly to cut wood.

And now that they know that someone is going to Wenlan, it is natural to support them to investigate the situation, and it is very generous in providing supplies.

Prolev's fleet consists of three ships, both of which are used to load various supplies, on the one hand to guarantee supplies, and on the other hand for trade.

When the fleet arrived in Vinland, there were 50 of them, and Prolev was the most excited one. Looking at the coastal scenes and animals that he had never seen before, he finally came to the legendary fertile land of the west, to the land of his dreams. The place of sailing.

Prolev's team stopped and stopped on the coast of Vinland. As time passed, they gradually came to a place where a river flows into the sea. They sailed into it and headed for the depths of Vinland.

Unknowingly, a year has passed. During this year, Puvalev has done many things, collecting local flora and fauna, and recording the local landscape.

They even set up a temporary colony in the interior of Vinland to facilitate further exploration.

During this period, they also had a lot of contact with the aborigines, but generally speaking, the two sides still maintained a friendly relationship and traded in the form of barter, which was fairly stable.

But contradictions also arose in it. Two years later, his crew became more and more homesick, and they were all outlaws at sea these days, and Puvalev didn't pay much attention to the personnel when he recruited them back then. Check, they are growing dissatisfied with the peaceful trade with the aborigines.

Finally, when Puvalev said that he would continue to explore, the crew rioted.

They subdued Puvalev, and at first tried to force him to return with the ship, but the stubborn captain refused to say anything, so they finally left him and his records in Vinland, leaving some supplies.

As for them leaving with the collected animals, these distant creatures are enough to exchange for a lot of money.

Puvalev was accompanied by only two people, one was a personal soldier sent by Rostislav to supervise, and the other was his nephew.

Faced with such a predicament, the captain did not panic. He went directly to the aborigines and "sold" the camp to them—after all, there were many wooden houses in the camp.

Moreover, he predicted that those traitors would definitely grab a wave before leaving. He cooperated with the aborigines to ambush the traitors, but unfortunately the ship was burned during the battle, and all the traitors were killed by the aborigines.

Puvalev was not discouraged either. He just asked for a lot of food and livestock from the aborigines, hired a guide, and the captain continued westward-he and he did not intend to end the trip like this.

What followed was a great journey. They sailed on the river in Vinland in a canoe. The captain saw all kinds of unique features in Vinland, such as the vast river, the magnificent waterfall, and the majestic mountains... Let He became more and more fascinated by this land.

Since there were no ships and teams, they had to cooperate with the aborigines during this period, and even lived in some aboriginal tribes for several years, just to obtain supplies and guides that would allow them to move on. …

It was this kind of behavior that saved them. If it weren't for the close cooperation with the locals, they would definitely not be able to withstand the natural environment of Vinland, such as the terrifying cold wave.

After crossing the forest and the high mountains, the captain came to an endless plain, where he saw a herd of buffalo as huge as a sea tide, as well as a tribe that hunted buffalo here for a living.

Here, Plevav saw the most wonderful sight to him, the huge wind that danced wildly and destroyed everything on the plain, a sight that he could never forget after seeing it once.

After establishing a good relationship with the local tribe, Plevav began to cross the great plain. After crossing the boundless land, the captain suddenly found a high mountain standing in front of him. The high mountain seemed to be boundless. The captain first For the first time there was a sense of fear.

It was also at this time that the captain suddenly realized that he had left his hometown for seven years without knowing it. The captain realized that it was time to return, and this news made his two servants very excited, and they wanted to go back a long time ago. .

It is said that there is a big island after crossing the mountains in the west, but he doesn't want to go, he just wants to go home now, he just wants to go home, go back to his hometown.

Packing up his luggage, he set foot on the road back to his hometown with his two attendants, and returned to the coast of Vinland along the road when he arrived. Their luck was very good, and they soon met at the cutting point of the Norse in Greenland. On the Greenland fleet, they returned to Greenland with Prolev and his party.

There is not much to say next, Prolev took a boat all the way back to Ross, and then he learned that the young prince who sponsored him had become the Grand Duke of Kyiv, and then came to see him non-stop, to Ross Dislav reports on his achievements.
