However, there was a slight accident here, and Egil was determined to reorganize his army, and then quietly prepared to wait for two months. Then recruit the entire noble army of Northern Norway to be cannon fodder, and destroy Oslo one by one. He got such news.

In Denmark in the south, Queen Margaret finally couldn't bear the loneliness in her heart, and sent troops on the grounds of "helping her northern neighbors to quell the war", and nearly 300 warships and more than 10,000 soldiers suddenly landed in Norway, and the follow-up troops were still coming. It looks like it's ready to smash the city of Oslo.

Although Oslo's defense equipment is very good - it is a real castle made of big stones, but Margaret is also the queen of a country, and the trebuchet technology is still there, although a little rudimentary, and there is no standardization, let alone an aiming system - but this shoddy construction has the advantage that it can be easily mass-produced.

From the day Egil received the news, dozens of trebuchets had gathered outside Oslo, bombarding the walls of Oslo day and night...... Moreover, because of the suddenness of the incident, Felix II did not have time to gather the nobles of his vassals. Even the peasant soldiers in their own territory did not recruit much. The castle garrison was no more than a thousand men in total - and that's not counting the barely fighting slaves and the like.

Besides, the nobles and knights of Oslo did not ignore it after knowing that their lord was in trouble. But it's lonely. For a while, there was no backbone. It's all a loose stance. In the end, a lot of them were destroyed by Queen Margaret's reinforcements, and the remaining noble troops were united. On a second look, there were less than 5,000 remnants left. Neither advance nor retreat. I had to camp on the other side of Oslo, and I didn't know what to do.

"Damn it—damn it, damn it, damn it!" said Egil, five days after he got the news - and it was told to him by a group of businessmen who wanted to go to Oslo for business. The Danish army was being transported every day, and the longer it dragged on, the stronger the other side became. Naturally, Egil understood.

"Is there any way to make my messages more rapid in the future?" he asked the system.

"If it's within your own territory, then it's okay to build a post system. If it's someone else's territory, you'll need to recruit spies to spy on enemy cities. The spy is a legendary spy with a slight upgrade. Not only can it monitor the enemy's situation, but it can also kill people and kill people. And oh. After you have established a country in the future, it is better to establish a complete intelligence network as well. ”

"Well, recruit spies...... Scouts, I guess I can recruit them in the tavern. ”

"That's right, but you can't recruit too strong guys in the tavern, and you can exchange them for bonds. to choose the tougher guys. ”

"Bergen, and Biard recruit one each. After that, exchange it for a more powerful ...... at your place Well, it's eight stars. Egil thought for a moment, then said.

"Understood. ”

Immediately afterward, Egil heard a knock on the door outside the room.

"Come in. ”

After that, a guy in ordinary linen clothes, who looked so ordinary that he couldn't find it in the crowd, walked in.

"The dagger in your back is loyal to you, my master. When he saw Egil, he knelt down on one knee and bowed his head.

Egil nodded, didn't speak, opened the system interface, and found this guy's information in the officer's item.

Name: None. Surname: Male. Place of Birth: ??? Age: Probably an adult.

Is there a difference between a profile like this that I wiped my tears from and no profile without? Egil looked at the "nothing" who was still kneeling on the ground, and his heart was entangled: Could it be that he wanted to name Ya Ting? No, I really don't want to encounter this kind of disgusting thing with dog blood to a certain extent--In other words, if you follow someone's surname, you are a slave, or your slave is your maid's surname, who invented this?

"Who's that...... Your name ......" Egil didn't know what to say for a while. It was mentioned vaguely.

"Under the name, it varies with the season and the weather. The man on the other side said very seriously.

“...... Are you a plant surname?" it was easy for Egir to hold back his complaints, and quietly listened to the explanation of the seemingly schizophrenic fellow.

"I use noble names before nobles, commoner names before commoners, Christian names before Christians, and pagan names before pagans...... Almost, that's it. ”

Sure enough, he is a senior spy. Although the speech is a little unreliable, and the tone is a little too loud. But the surname really doesn't say. Although it is a seven-star - but the additional surname is completely comparable to a character with ten stars or more.

The family names are as follows:

Super Mass Face: Doing secret work, that's how it should be, skill +2.

Sophisticated and skilled: This guy is used to such a "cute" profession. Practice makes perfect, skill +3.

Accustomed to blood: suffocation, poisoning, hacking, stabbing, and even death...... Skill +2.

That's +7 for the base caste.

The rest of the special bonuses are: Human Skin Mask, Stealth +2, Night Cloak, Stealth +1, Refined Poison, Assassination +3, Sharp Dagger, Assassination +1, Parkour Master, Stealth +2, Carry Pigeon, Communication Range +1000km. Such.

As a result, the guy's stealth (spy skill) is actually twelve, and assassination (assassin skill) is eleven. It greatly exceeds the value of the basic seven points.

With such a superior caste, then a mild schizophrenia, a caste like Morale-2 can be ignored - and in Egil's character column, there is also the first retinue: the Assassination Spymaster: this man can be called the first right-hand man beside the monarch. Brutality +3, Personal Security +5, Spy Assassin Spy Cost -20%.

It's very good. This kind of thing. Egil sighed slightly: "Well, go and work hard, my dagger." Within three days at the latest, I will have all the information inside and outside Oslo. ”

"Understood, my master. "This guy is indeed a bit of a schizophrenic parkour master, and he jumped straight - he rolled over from the window and ran to the roof, and Egir listened carefully, but still couldn't hear the sound of this guy stepping on the tiles. But the message that the system passed to him really proves that this guy is about to go away.

"Next time, remember to walk the way, bastard!" said Egil, poking his head out of the window.

After solving this problem, Egil thought about it again, although his strength was a little worse, but in terms of combat effectiveness, he could not compare to the Danes. If it is used well, it is impossible to say that the nobles who can go down to Oslo and scold it again will take advantage of it. Coupled with the fact that the Danes were fighting away from home, logistics were supplied by sea. The fleet of light ballista warships under his command has also begun to see scale, and currently has twenty-four warships, plus fifty dragon head warships that have been recruited. Its combat effectiveness may not be lost to the opponent's patchwork of hundreds of warships - even if things are slightly unexpected and he fails a little. But instead of fighting head-on, the fleet will instead attack the enemy's supply lines in a lewd stream, and won't that be enough?

But - and there is still a question here - what to do after having defeated the Danish invading army, and to continue to fight them, but Denmark is adjacent to the Holy Roman Empire.

Before, Egil asked from the system elves, although the Holy Roman Empire is now a mess - but there are many capable people, and the various electors are not fuel-efficient lamps, and if they attack this army stupidly, I am afraid that they will be swallowed by people. It's better to go to the British Isles. The people there are weaker and explosive. It's a Viking traditional activity area again, and it's decisively easy to bully.

So, let's keep Denmark for now. After defeating Denmark, see if you can get some war reparations. And then there's a peace treaty, and then there's a free trade treaty or something. That's it.

Having set the tone, Egil decided to bow a little and talk to Her Majesty first—of course, it was almost impossible to get along. But it doesn't matter, Egil just wants to leave a room for peace talks after the victory in advance.

Of course, it is also possible to leave a room for peace after the defeat.

And just like that, the legendary diplomat...... Well, this is not like the legendary spy assassin spy like an underground worker, a diplomat or something just needs to get by - Egil thinks that no matter how neat his words are, he is more effective than a gun stroke. So I didn't ask, and I recruited a diplomat directly in the center of the city.

Diplomat No. 1 (because it's a low-level dragon set, it's the same existence as a passerby.,There's no need to say a name at all),Four-star (eh?The surname is okay.。 ）

Surname: Diplomatic Talent +1, Excellent Diplomat +2, Diplomatic Interpreter +1.

Is...... Although Danish and Norwegian are both spoken in the same way. Diplomatic interpreters or something, probably nothing. But if you want to go to other countries or even cross other continents in the future......

The language barrier is really troublesome. Back then, Qin Shi Huang's book was on the same track as the literary car, why didn't he think about unifying the language?

With this in mind, Egil ordered the newly recruited diplomat No. 1 to send an envoy to Denmark in the capacity of "lord of all Norwegians, Earl of Biard, trustee of Bergen", asking him to stop attacking Norwegian territory and reach a peace agreement. Let's see if we can sign a trade treaty.

Of course it couldn't have succeeded. So, it's just a move. After this, Egil began to mobilize his nobles......
