"The Earl of Donchester himself—"

In the noisy hall of the lord, the Grand Duke of Don Jr., the Count of Olcoba, and the knights, Crane, Bard, Insider Lis, and Little Odega gathered together, and all the important ministers in the territory of the Grand Duke of Little Tang who held military and political power gathered together to discuss matters concerning the Olaf patriarch.

Now, Count Olcoba was reading the contents of the parchment that had been salvaged from the clay pots, and it was thanks to Patriarch Olaf that he had thought so well that he threw five or six clay pots in succession, otherwise the words on them would have been blurred by the nature of the parchment when it met with water, and could only be seen by putting together a few pieces of parchment—needless to say, as you know, the contents of these parchments are all identical.

At the moment, Count Alcoba was reading the first sentence of the letter, and he had to stop just after reading the beginning.

It's called wrong, this is a felony in the Middle Ages, but it's also understandable, when Patriarch Olaf set off, the little Tang Grand Duke was just an earl, although he was already the next duke who was already determined, but who would have thought that Ireland would change in the past half a year, and the city would change the king's flag?

However, this also proves from the side that these letters were indeed written by Patriarch Olaf.

"It's okay, keep reading."

Little Tang Grand Duke shook his head and signaled to Count Alcoba that this is not a big deal, he doesn't pay much attention to these people with false names, and now the situation is still unclear, who knows what happened, and the matter is not serious, and he doesn't care about the title at all!

"From Cork City...... All the way through the Iberian Peninsula, on the Strait of Gibraltar Road encountered three Barbary pirate ships, and after the battle, they captured the ship...... Passing through ******, the locals were reluctant to provide supplies and sparked conflicts, looting a village, securing five ships and taking several prisoners...... Escape from the ****** Dynasty in the waters of Sardinia and reach Sicily, where he meets his fellow Sicilian king, Roger I......"

With the permission of the Grand Duke of Little Tang, Count Olcoba continued to read boldly and boldly, but the more the Grand Duke of Little Tang listened, the more he frowned, this letter from the Patriarch of Olaf was really stinking and long, not so much a letter as a logbook, which contained no details, even a conflict with the inhabitants of a certain place on a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, and a certain number of prisoners after the battle were clearly written......

If it is an ordinary moment, although it is a little boring, the little Tang Grand Duke will listen to it, after all, how to say it is also a piece of Olaf's patriarch's heart, but now is the time to be puzzled and anxious, why did you write me such a letter that stinks like a footcloth!

"Remember the point."

Suppressing his anger, the little Grand Duke Tang said in a muffled voice, but Count Olcoba could only smile bitterly when he heard it. Read the key point, of course he also misses the key point, but this letter is all like this, the words are densely written, some places are soaked in water and have to be compared with other to recognize, he really has more than enough heart and not enough strength!

"Show me all the letters."

Seeing Count Alcoba's face, the little Grand Duke Tang understood what was going on after a little guessing, and he no longer embarrassed the count. The Earl breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately delivered all the letters to the little Tang Grand Duke.

After receiving the letter, the little Tang Grand Duke glanced at ten lines - thanks to the eye that he had developed when he used to read novels - and quickly summed up a rough idea, in short, after arriving in Sicily, Patriarch Olaf and King Roger met very happily, plus Patriarch Olaf gave King Roger a large sum of money, as well as the prisoners he had captured before, all of which were given to King Roger. King Roger was so moved that he directly sent 200 soldiers to support Olaf's patriarch's piracy business - Olaf, this bastard, he didn't even think about buying it, he went with the idea of robbing it from the beginning!

Well, it doesn't matter, Grand Duke Xiao Tang took a deep breath for a long time to suppress his anger. In any case, Patriarch Olaf finally understood something, although he had the idea of robbery in his head, but after comparing the strength of the two sides, he still honestly took the soldiers to pay the poll tax, and entered the city of Cairo to buy and sell slaves.

Yes, Patriarch Olaf went directly to the city of Cairo with his soldiers!

Of course, this is not because the rulers of Cairo are stupid, in fact, in this era, merchants play the role of delicious fat, and all big businessmen who do big business do not dare to go out without a few bodyguards by their side, not to mention that the Olaf patriarch did not enter more than 200 people in one breath, they disguised themselves as four large merchant groups, and even deliberately caused some conflicts because of accommodation, so as to hide from the eyes of the rulers of Cairo.

So, seeing that the strength is like a world of difference, Patriarch Olaf, haven't you given up the idea of robbery?

Xiao Tang Dagong silently complained in his heart, is the blood of Vikings born with the potential to be a robber?

Whether there is this potential or not, the little Tang Grand Duke doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know, but even if he is a robber, he must have an eye.

At the beginning, the Olaf patriarch did seriously talk about business, buy slaves, spend the money like flowing water, and people walked in like flowing water.

But the unexpected happened.

Pestilence.

Cholera to be exact.

It is conceivable that Cairo is such an international big city, there are countless people coming and going every day, there are many homeless people, pickpockets, and thieves in the city, and the slums are like stars, and the people in the Middle Ages have no sense of hygiene, and feces and urine mixed with water flow anywhere in the streets and alleys.

Cholera, on the other hand, is a fecal-oral infection......

Of course, the plague broke out like this, and you may still remember the various conditions during the SARS epidemic, the panic, uneasiness, and the feeling that the sky had fallen, but any plague in the Middle Ages caused much more panic than SARS.

Because SARS can still be cured, and it has always been under the control of the government, but any plague in ancient times, the city that broke out of the plague can only pray for God's blessing - as for the lord, then don't mention it again, the lord is often the first to escape from the city, and the first thing the lord does when he escapes from the city is to mobilize troops to blockade the city, and no one is allowed to escape.

There is no doubt that the whole city of Cairo was in chaos at that time, murder, arson, rape, the ugliest side of human nature broke out mercilessly; The cowardly can only tremble and pray, while the prepared can get everything!

"This is the chance!"

At that time, Olaf patriarch almost jumped up excitedly, thanking Odin, thanking God, thanking Valkyrie, thanking all the gods who exist for this opportunity, God did not take it but took the blame, Olaf patriarch gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, his heart was cross, and he did it!

More than 200 soldiers who maintain discipline and organization, which can be regarded as one of the most powerful forces in Cairo today, plus a large number of young and strong slaves purchased by the Olaf patriarch before, following the orders of the Grand Duke of Xiao Tang, these slaves are all Catholics, and even many of them are captured elite soldiers, who kill heretics without blinking an eye.

At that time, Patriarch Olaf had just unchained the slaves and revealed himself as a Catholic, and before he could say a word, the cheering people regarded him as an angel, an archmage with divine powers, who had come down to punish the infidels. Without even the mobilization of Patriarch Olaf, the slaves, who had already been carried away by fanatical faith, had already rushed into every house of the Green Cultists in Cairo, stabbing them in their hands, vowing to completely purify this filthy city!

PS: I originally wanted to finish this chapter with a long finish...... However, after a day of class, it seems that my energy is a little low today.

Ps2: Roger, King of Sicily, this person is a real historical figure, in fact, it was this person who founded the Kingdom of Sicily.
