......
One day, the heroes of Ulster saw a golden ship coming from afar, with a boy on board.
He used all kinds of strange spells, someone predicted that this foreign boy would rule them sooner or later, so the warriors decided to drive him away.
First of all, he met Conall Cearnach, Conall asked him about his origin and background, but because of geis, Ken Lak could not answer, Conall thought it was an insult, so he challenged Conall Cearnach, but was defeated by Ken Lak. The king sent other warriors who were either killed or **** and thrown into the sea
Then Cú Chulainn came to the boy, but Kenrak also couldn't answer, and the two fought.
Kenrak's martial skills quickly made Cú Chulainn fall into a hard fight, and during the tussle, Kenrak shaved off Cú Chulainn's hair.
Then, Kenrak pressed Cú Chulainn into the water and wanted to drown him, but Cú Chulainn suddenly threw the spear Gaberga underwater, and the sneak attack directly injured Kenrak's vital point.
Knowing the identity of his son, Cuchulain held the dying Kenrak to the nobles of Ulster. Kenrak said goodbye to every warrior of Ulster and kissed them one by one.
This story can be traced back to the Yellow Book of Lecan in the 9th century AD, and there are many related stories recorded.
In some of his later poems, Cú Chulainn is not without doubts about the identity of his opponent, but he still chooses to protect the face of the king and Ulster, which reflects the loyal part of Cú Chulainn's complex character.
Battle of Cooley Bulls:
The war was sparked by a pillow-side debate between Maeve, queen of Ulster's neighbouring Connaught, and Ailillmac Mate, the son of her husband, who was richer.
Maeve knew that her husband had a silver-white divine bull, so she hoped to win Don Cooley, the tan bull of Fiachna's son Dare, to win over her husband.
(Note: In some epic works, this cow is called "Cullinger's Brown Bull", that is, theBrownBullofCualnge).
Legend has it that this cow can give birth to 50 calves in one day, 50 children can sit on its body, and 100 warriors can be hidden behind its back.
So Maeve sent a messenger to borrow cattle from Dahl, hoping to borrow a year and promise a heavy reward. The messenger found Dahl to explain his purpose, and after making a promise, Dahl happily accepted.
That night, Dahl hosted a banquet to entertain the envoys. After drinking a few glasses of wine, the envoys began to speak wildly, saying that Maeve would send a large army to attack if they could not borrow cattle.
Dahl was very angry when he heard it. Due to etiquette, he didn't have an immediate attack. The next day before dawn, he would drive the messenger away, and the borrowing of cows came to an end.
After listening to the messenger's report, Maeve did not blame the messenger, but instead joined the other two countries to form a three-nation coalition to attack Ulster, and the war for a cow started.
In those days, before the war, the druids or bards were asked to pay homage to the sky and the earth, and choose a good day and auspicious day to set off.
One night Maeve was walking outside when she met the Connaught poetess Fedelm, who foreshadowed to Maeve that the trip would be extremely difficult because the hero, Cuchulainn, would stand in her way.
Maeve didn't think so, because the opponent's combat power was completely at a disadvantage compared to her, so she thought it was just nonsense.
However, during the march, Cú Chulainn often attacked the army by himself like a ghost. Every time he appeared, he took the lives of hundreds of soldiers. Maeve's army was disturbed, and the army stopped or made a detour several times.
