Battle at Jurjeve Stijene

Hi there, kiddo! Today, I'm going to tell you about the Battle at Jurjeve Stijene. Are you ready?

Okay, so imagine you're playing a game of hide-and-seek with your friends. You're hiding behind a big rock in the woods, but suddenly, you hear a loud noise. It's not one of your friends, it's something big and scary.

That's kind of what happened at Jurjeve Stijene a long time ago. There were two groups of people, called armies, who were playing a game called war. But instead of hiding and seeking each other, they were fighting to see who was stronger.

One army was made up of people who were trying to take over a castle. The other army was made up of people who wanted to protect the castle and make sure the first army didn't take over. They both had weapons like swords and bows and arrows, just like in the movies.

The battle started when the first army approached the castle and started attacking. But the second army was ready for them. They had set traps and had soldiers hiding behind big rocks, just like in your hide-and-seek game.

The fight was really intense and lasted for several hours. Both sides were very brave and didn't give up easily. The first army was trying their best to get into the castle and the second army was trying their best to stop them.

Finally, the second army was able to push the first army back and the first army had to retreat. This means they had to run away because they couldn't win the game of war. The second army won the battle and were able to keep the castle safe.

So there you have it, kiddo! That's the Battle at Jurjeve Stijene in a nutshell. It was a very serious game of war and the second army was able to protect the castle and win.
