*In the 11th century,*
**[00:05] ---**
*the invasion by Denmark's army
and the Vikings*
**[00:09] ---**
*continued to intensify.*
**[00:15] ---**
ENGLAND 1012 AD
**[00:25] ---**
*In October,*
**[00:27] ---**
*the attacks, which had continued for several years,*
**[00:30] ---**
*reached a turning point.*
**[00:32] ---**
VICINITY OF JELLING DENMARK
KING SWEYN'S ESTATE
**[00:36] ---**
Are you telling me
to withdraw my troops from England?
**[00:40] ---**
We're not withdrawing. We're letting them rest.
**[00:44] ---**
Marching in the winter weakens them.
**[00:49] ---**
Let the soldiers rest.
**[00:53] ---**
Yes, sir. As you wish.
**[00:57] ---**
The summer.
**[01:00] ---**
We're going to strike next summer.
**[01:04] ---**
I, too, shall lead an army in battle.
**[01:13] ---**
So, suddenly we get a break?
**[01:14] ---**
ENGLAND COAST
DANISH ARMY BASE
**[01:16] ---**
I want to go home.
**[01:18] ---**
We don't need those pirates for now, either.
**[01:25] ---**
I thought I'd be able to earn a lot this year.
**[01:28] ---**
We can't do anything,
now that the army is staying put.
**[01:31] ---**
This is why I hate being a hired hand.
**[01:37] ---**
What's Askeladd going to do?
**[01:42] ---**
Askeladd.
**[01:44] ---**
It'd be a shame to spend all winter like this.
**[01:48] ---**
And we already raided all the good villages.
**[01:52] ---**
True.
**[01:53] ---**
What are you going to do?
**[01:55] ---**
We can't do anything about it.
**[01:59] ---**
We're going to do what the birds do.
**[02:01] ---**
We'll go to where the food is.
**[02:20] ---**
KINGDOM OF FRANCE
VICINITY OF LOIRE RIVER
**[02:23] ---**
Don't just stand there.
**[02:30] ---**
They have a ram.
**[02:31] ---**
Bring the crossbowmen.
**[02:33] ---**
One. Two.
**[02:38] ---**
Alternate fire with two groups.
**[02:40] ---**
Aim.
**[02:43] ---**
Fire.
**[02:51] ---**
It's no good. Retreat.
**[03:14] ---**
It looks like the Franks are fighting
amongst themselves.
**[03:17] ---**
The fort's defended by only a few men.
**[03:19] ---**
The attackers have 800.
**[03:22] ---**
I can't believe they attacked the fort head-on.
**[03:26] ---**
So, this is the local clan's headquarters.
**[03:28] ---**
How about it? Doesn't it smell like treasure?
**[03:34] ---**
So, that's what you're after.
**[03:36] ---**
Let's do it, Askeladd.
**[03:38] ---**
We'll side with the attackers.
**[03:40] ---**
Let's smash open the treasure chest,
and take everything inside.
**[03:45] ---**
All right.
**[03:46] ---**
I was wondering why we came to the boonies.
**[03:50] ---**
You're amazing, Askeladd.
**[03:51] ---**
Your predictions were spot-on.
**[03:54] ---**
Let's make up our loss from England.
**[03:56] ---**
Okay, Thorfinn.
**[03:58] ---**
You're up.
**[04:19] ---**
We're going to war.
**[05:56] ---**
NORMANNI
**[05:58] ---**
We're going to war.
**[06:00] ---**
Make contact with their leader.
**[06:03] ---**
Give him this message:
**[06:06] ---**
"You're terrible at battle.
**[06:08] ---**
I can't stand watching you.
**[06:10] ---**
Therefore, my men will help you.
**[06:13] ---**
This is a once-in-a-lifetime offer.
**[06:15] ---**
I shall lead you to victory, no matter what.
**[06:19] ---**
Once the fort falls, we will take half of the spoils.
**[06:24] ---**
We shall attack again tomorrow morning."
**[06:27] ---**
After you deliver the message, stay in their camp,
and observe the situation.
**[06:32] ---**
Got it? Then go.
**[06:36] ---**
What's wrong?
**[06:38] ---**
Go, Thorfinn.
**[06:42] ---**
Do you have any idea how many people I've killed?
**[06:53] ---**
*I went scouting,*
**[06:54] ---**
*and I also brought up the rear.*
**[06:59] ---**
I've accomplished enough.
**[07:02] ---**
But you...
**[07:05] ---**
What? You want a reward?
**[07:08] ---**
If you close the deal, I'll give you three gold pieces.
**[07:11] ---**
I swear in the name of Tyr.
**[07:15] ---**
Don't test me.
**[07:17] ---**
How long do you plan to keep running away?
**[07:20] ---**
I'm so scared.
**[07:22] ---**
I was just joking.
**[07:25] ---**
But you know...
**[07:27] ---**
You'd have to bring me at least one head with a helmet,
if you want that.
**[07:40] ---**
He never changes.
**[07:42] ---**
Are you sure it's okay
to let him handle the negotiation?
**[07:46] ---**
Soldiers are short-tempered
when they're weak.
**[07:49] ---**
They might kill the messenger,
before the negotiations start. It happens all the time.
**[07:54] ---**
Who cares if we lose some kid that follows us?
**[08:04] ---**
What are you doing, kid?
**[08:06] ---**
This is no place for a kid.
**[08:09] ---**
I'm a messenger.
**[08:11] ---**
Is there anyone who can speak Norse?
**[08:13] ---**
What's wrong with you? What language is that?
**[08:16] ---**
He's not a Frank.
**[08:20] ---**
Is he a spy from the fort?
**[08:22] ---**
Secure him.
**[08:30] ---**
I'm a messenger.
**[08:31] ---**
Is there anyone who can speak Norse?
**[08:38] ---**
You want half of the spoils?
**[08:42] ---**
You mercenaries. Don't push your luck.
**[08:46] ---**
"You want half of the spoils?
Don't push your luck."
**[08:49] ---**
You're pretty confident in yourself.
**[08:51] ---**
Normanni kid.
**[08:55] ---**
Normanni?
**[08:56] ---**
Those people from the north attacking England?
**[08:58] ---**
"Those people from the north attacking England?"
**[09:02] ---**
Even a kid can see it.
**[09:04] ---**
If you keep attacking the front gate,
your men are just going to die.
**[09:07] ---**
Their defenses are weak on the lake.
**[09:09] ---**
We're going to attack there.
**[09:12] ---**
Your plan is ill-considered.
**[09:13] ---**
The river that leads to the lake gets steeper upstream.
**[09:17] ---**
There's even a waterfall.
**[09:20] ---**
Our ship sunk downstream.
**[09:24] ---**
That's what would happen
if you attacked from the lake.
**[09:27] ---**
"That's what would happen
if you attacked from the lake."
**[09:29] ---**
Then do you want to turn down my offer?
**[09:32] ---**
Then Askeladd and his hundred men are going
to join the defenders in the fort.
**[09:38] ---**
He'll do the same thing if I die too.
**[09:41] ---**
If I don't signal that the deal has been closed,
**[09:43] ---**
you're going to make enemies
of a hundred fierce men from the Northern Sea.
**[09:52] ---**
Very well.
**[09:53] ---**
Your Highness.
**[09:54] ---**
But...
**[09:55] ---**
if you're lying, I'm going to cut off your head.
**[09:59] ---**
If you're telling the truth,
then in the name of Jesus Christ,
**[10:03] ---**
I'll share my bread equally.
**[10:04] ---**
"I'll share my bread equally."
**[10:07] ---**
Give me back my dagger.
**[10:10] ---**
It's a memento from my father.
**[10:30] ---**
It's Thorfinn's signal.
**[10:32] ---**
One high arrow, and two low arrows.
**[10:35] ---**
Let's hurry.
**[10:37] ---**
Let's cross the pass before the moon rises.
**[10:42] ---**
We're stuck guarding the ship the whole time.
**[10:45] ---**
I want to fight too.
**[10:48] ---**
Damn that fat general.
**[10:53] ---**
Over there.
**[11:01] ---**
It's a dragon!
**[11:04] ---**
It's on the mountain.
**[11:15] ---**
A dragon?
**[11:21] ---**
You said, the dragon climbed the mountain?
**[11:23] ---**
Yes. Last night,
the soldiers guarding the ship all reported they saw it.
**[11:28] ---**
I see.
**[11:29] ---**
It's a bad omen, Your Highness.
**[11:33] ---**
I want to see it too.
**[11:37] ---**
Kid.
**[11:38] ---**
Your friends haven't come yet.
**[11:41] ---**
"I want to see it too."
**[11:42] ---**
The sun is already up.
**[11:45] ---**
"The sun is already up."
**[11:46] ---**
Just attack, you fat-ass.
**[11:49] ---**
You'll understand soon.
**[11:51] ---**
You said something mean just now, didn't you?
**[11:54] ---**
It looks like our entertainment for tonight is going
to be cutting off your head.
**[12:03] ---**
Forward march.
**[12:04] ---**
Forward march.
**[12:13] ---**
Forward.
**[12:19] ---**
Attack.
**[12:30] ---**
Oh, no. It's started.
**[12:32] ---**
We're late. Bastards.
**[12:35] ---**
Put your heart into it.
**[12:37] ---**
The battlefield is waiting.
**[12:45] ---**
It'll be the same every time.
**[12:47] ---**
Come on.
**[12:49] ---**
Put a bridge on the west side too.
**[12:51] ---**
I don't care how many men we lose.
**[12:56] ---**
Hey. Which one is their leader?
**[13:00] ---**
The one with the feather on his helmet.
**[13:02] ---**
It's him.
**[13:06] ---**
A head with a helmet.
**[13:12] ---**
You bastard.
**[13:13] ---**
He was lying. Kill him.
**[13:16] ---**
Kill the kid.
**[13:22] ---**
You bastard.
**[13:25] ---**
You let the kid escape.
You haven't captured the fort.
**[13:27] ---**
What's wrong with you guys?
**[13:30] ---**
You're thinking you'll go home,
once the snow falls.
**[13:32] ---**
That's not going to happen.
**[13:33] ---**
You're not going home until the fort is captured.
**[13:50] ---**
What?
**[14:36] ---**
Heave-ho.
**[14:44] ---**
Row. Full speed ahead.
**[14:52] ---**
Whoever gets there first gets twice as much.
**[14:55] ---**
Put your heart into it.
**[14:59] ---**
I see.
**[15:00] ---**
Those were friendly forces.
All troops, forward. Don't stop until the fort falls.
**[15:07] ---**
Never imagined they'd carry their ship over the pass.
**[15:11] ---**
Don't hesitate.
**[15:12] ---**
Eighty men from the right wing,
go to the boat landing.
**[15:15] ---**
Crossbowmen, this way.
**[15:28] ---**
Is that all you got?
**[15:30] ---**
The lake's not a barrier.
**[15:32] ---**
It's a shallow pond that makes for a perfect attack.
**[15:35] ---**
Great. We're going in.
**[15:46] ---**
What? They pierced my shield,
even though they're so far away.
**[15:49] ---**
They got Olov.
**[15:52] ---**
Askeladd.
**[15:53] ---**
Crossbowmen?
**[15:54] ---**
We're going to take a few losses.
**[15:57] ---**
This is the perfect chance.
**[16:00] ---**
Fire as much as you can before they land.
**[16:10] ---**
A child?
**[16:16] ---**
What?
**[16:17] ---**
They stopped attacking?
**[16:20] ---**
Maybe they ran out of arrows.
**[16:24] ---**
Men. Prepare to land.
**[16:27] ---**
This is our chance.
**[17:09] ---**
- Oh, no.
- Kill him.
**[17:10] ---**
- This is for the captain.
- Damn.
**[17:12] ---**
- That kid's crazy.
- Get him.
**[17:23] ---**
Go. Storm them.
**[17:35] ---**
All right. Go on a rampage.
**[17:42] ---**
Holding the gate's too hard for these guys.
**[17:46] ---**
Hurry up, and kill them all, guys.
**[17:53] ---**
One. Two.
**[18:21] ---**
Those Normannis are crazy.
**[18:33] ---**
That fortress was no match
against my military tactics.
**[18:39] ---**
The captain of the fortress defense died in battle.
**[18:42] ---**
The soldiers said, a kid did it.
**[18:46] ---**
That kid?
**[18:48] ---**
Never underestimate a Normanni.
**[18:50] ---**
If I send him back now,
he's going to become an enemy.
**[18:54] ---**
What shall we do?
**[18:57] ---**
Those guys came over the pass, right?
**[18:59] ---**
They'll probably go back the same way,
carrying the ship.
**[19:02] ---**
That's when we'll attack.
**[19:04] ---**
A sailor on land is like a baby.
**[19:11] ---**
Your Highness.
**[19:14] ---**
I have a message for General Jabbathe.
**[19:17] ---**
What is it? Tell me.
**[19:20] ---**
The treasure room...
**[19:30] ---**
Where's my treasure?
**[19:33] ---**
They also plundered the church
and the houses of all the leaders.
**[19:36] ---**
They took everything.
**[19:39] ---**
What?
**[19:41] ---**
I see.
**[19:42] ---**
I have a message for the leader of the Franks.
**[19:45] ---**
What?
**[19:52] ---**
As for your half of the spoils,
**[19:54] ---**
you get victory,
**[19:57] ---**
and we get the treasure.
**[19:59] ---**
You're fine with that, right?
**[20:01] ---**
I think we're being quite generous here, you know.
**[20:04] ---**
We let you have the fort, after all.
**[20:09] ---**
- You bastards.
- Oh, no.
**[20:12] ---**
- They'll descend the waterfall.
- Savages.
**[20:14] ---**
- Get the boats.
- You pirates.
**[20:16] ---**
- All boats in the fort have been destroyed.
- You greedy beasts.
**[20:19] ---**
You scammers.
**[20:21] ---**
You country bumpkins.
**[20:23] ---**
I can't understand French.
**[20:26] ---**
Now then, shall we call it a night?
**[20:29] ---**
Thorfinn hasn't returned.
**[20:31] ---**
Oh, really?
**[20:32] ---**
Oh, well. I bet he's dead anyway.
**[20:35] ---**
Now there's more treasure for us.
**[20:47] ---**
You're alive?
**[20:48] ---**
You're tough, kid. Did you get hurt?
**[20:51] ---**
Askeladd.
**[20:52] ---**
It's the captain's head.
**[20:55] ---**
Well, did you cut it off?
**[21:02] ---**
You promised.
**[21:04] ---**
I won't let you say no.
**[21:09] ---**
I, warrior from Iceland, son of Thors, Thorfinn,
**[21:13] ---**
in the name of my father's sword,
challenge you, Askeladd, to a duel.
**[21:18] ---**
To avenge my father's death.
**[21:20] ---**
- Hey.
- He wants to duel now?
**[21:22] ---**
He's got guts.
**[21:25] ---**
I, son of Olaf, Askeladd,
**[21:27] ---**
in the name of Artorius, my ancestor,
**[21:30] ---**
accept your challenge, Thorfinn.
**[21:35] ---**
However...
**[21:37] ---**
ask me again later.
**[21:39] ---**
We're getting out of here now.
**[21:41] ---**
Row, men.
**[21:43] ---**
If you don't hurry up, they'll capture the river.
**[21:47] ---**
You bastard. Don't play the fool with me.
**[21:55] ---**
Who cares if there's a dragon?
**[21:57] ---**
I'm not scared.
**[21:58] ---**
Right, right.
**[21:59] ---**
But you know...
**[22:06] ---**
It's here!
**[22:21] ---**
Goodbye.
**[22:23] ---**
Franks.
**[22:27] ---**
- Let's go home.
- We struck it big.
**[22:31] ---**
We'll survive the winter.
**[22:36] ---**
Yeah.
