A large number of bonfires lit up in the ruins of Qiao Village, and the people who had marched for a long time were finally able to rest well.

An extremely important piece of news went viral in the Ross army camp. The so-called place where the army is stationed will surely be the battlefield in the future.

Finally it's time to fight for everything!

This should have been so thrilling to sleep, but for many soldiers of the Russ army, they were relieved that they did not have to go desperately on their way.

If not by boat, the Slavic fighters from Novgorod in the army felt that the road they had walked before was not as long as these few days. What's more, this is stepping on another big island of Varangians. Crisis is everywhere, and of course it is also full of opportunities.

After the bonfire meeting at night, Rurik and Arik hurriedly selected the personnel for tomorrow's special operation.

Soon after, the bonfire illuminated the face of an unruly warrior.

The cool night wind blew their beards and their beards, and the hilt of the steel sword hanging from their waist was also illuminated by the flames.

As many as three hundred people were selected! Not only are they valiant generals who have experienced battle, but most of them are equipped with an important weapon-crossbow.

There are many long-range weapons equipped by the Russian army, among which steel-armed and wooden-armed crossbows are the most fierce and fierce. The steel arm version is good at launching heavy armor-piercing arrows. It has a short range of penetration and high kinetic energy retention. Although the wooden arm version fires a light arrow, it is better than light.

Compared to the excellent archers who need to train for a long time, the crossbow archers are quick! The wooden crossbow is light and easy to use, and essentially does not take up weaving.

Rurik carefully selected two hundred soldiers to act as archers, and another hundred veterans who had hacked many enemies to join. Thirty Kewen longbowmen are also led by Metzasta, adding some new tricks to the next action.

They lined up in an array, and in the soft light of the campfire, they were reviewed by the Rurik and Arik brothers.

Arik walked a few laps and was satisfied with himself. He spoke on behalf of his brother: "All are energetic. Brothers, you beat the Gotland people during the day, and soon you will beat more enemies. You are very lucky, tomorrow. At the beginning we set off to climb the mound, we have to release the bait, and finally deceive the Gotland King's huge sum of money. When that king appears, hehe..."

Arik deliberately didn't finish the sentence, but the brothers weren't just children.

Why do all the fighters summoned have sufficient experience in the use of bows and crossbows? What is the relationship between "cheating money" and carrying a large number of crossbows?

Bows and crossbows are used to kill the enemy. The small group of Corvins has amazing archery skills. What kind of shooting do you want to come here? Is that subject the king of the Gotland?

The nobleman who shot the enemy was really a great honor, and the soul with such a feat must have entered the Hall of Valor.

This glimpse is here for the time being, Rurik ordered the brothers to disband, and ordered everyone to get a good night's sleep. After all, before the decisive battle, they must complete a difficult task.

Soon, the two men and a small group of entourage arrived at the camp of the prisoners in Baisha Harbor aggressively.

Seeing "Rose Ruthless" is coming, many people tremble as long as they see Arik's face, even if Arik's injured left arm is still hanging from his neck with a rope.

Like the roar of a bear, Arik drew his sword with his right hand to question: "Now, give you a chance to leave!"

Opportunity to leave? Could it be that the soul left this world? The captives in Baisha Port changed their faces one after another, and many people immediately begged for mercy.

"Don't cry!" Rurik couldn't bear the frightening aura of his cousin. He took two steps forward and said calmly: "I will pick ten people, and I will let you go to Visby."

what? Can you escape back to Visby?

Almost all the captives were moved. In their view, they could start a new life by escaping to Visby, and they could make a comeback. It was better than dying for the Ross by being a slave.

But everyone also doubted the sincerity of the Ross people.

Rurik explained again and again that he randomly picked a lucky one, and the others waited to become a large group of crabs that fell into the pan, and began to struggle like crazy, letting themselves be the best place to go.

"I just said, these guys are unreliable. You see, they just want to run away, they just lack a chance." Arik pursed his lips and muttered contemptuously to his brother.

The prisoner was so surprised that Rurik was also surprised. Regardless, this group of prisoners is a consumable in itself.

Since ten people were to be selected, Rurik chose ten people randomly according to whether they were strong or not.

The people who were elected were very excited, and the people who lost the election were downcast.

The ten people were distracted, and in an atmosphere that shocked their hearts and almost exploded, they learned of the task they should lead.

Perhaps Visby is no longer the same as security. This coastal "large city" is already a serious fat sheep in the Ross army.

Will the Roths play some conspiracy?

Rurik knew it was unnecessary. The Ross tribe mobilized the limit of the current era's ability to mobilize troops. The tribe mobilized to fight against the Gotland people. Since it is a decisive battle, then open the battle upright and fight!

The two sides dispatched all their troops, and the Rus army came to an upright victory. Rurik felt that this was his real war of power, and it also gave the Rus tribe its pride.

Of course, the strength of the Russian army is the guys who can tell Visby.

"We have three thousand people in the Russian army, and you all know the situation of our army these days. You can tell the Gotlanders in Visby about these facts and tell them that the Russian army expects a decisive battle!

You have to tell the king of Gotland, tell the big merchants. The prince's five hundred people were wiped out, and only the prince was captured. King Gotland must bring two hundred pounds of silver coins and arrive under the hill before noon on the 17th to exchange money with us, otherwise Siegfast will fall to the ground! "

Relying on dictation alone, Rurik didn't believe that these guys could communicate perfectly.

Rurik sent someone to engrave his own extortion clause on a freshly cut pine board, and the grooves were smeared with carbon powder, revealing multiple strings of Luen documents. This is the so-called "conditions for the kidnappers" or the last war against the Gotland forces entrenched in Visby.

Early the next morning, the morning mist filled the world.

The air was cool. Early in the morning, Rurik got out of his sleeping bag with animal skins, and he couldn't help feeling a bit of cold. He ate some dried fish and added it with boiled chrysanthemum tea to warm his body.

Before the war, the Ross army had to be stationed at the bridge village camp.

The remains of the village have been sparsely cleaned up. Some soldiers who are not too troublesome have already cut down a batch of pine trees quickly with axes and double saws, and began to build more comfortable wooden sheds early in the morning. Now that the shed is already being built, why not make it more decent?

Some deer villages and wooden fences were quickly built as part of the fortifications. They didn't bother to dig trenches, but dig a map to pile up four mounds at the four corners of the camp, and then arrange the torsion slingshot they carried. This is the tactical commanding height of the camp. If the enemy strikes by accident, the crossbowmen can stand high and shoot wantonly.

Everyone is essentially Viking, and a team of dozens of people was sent to launch a sneak attack. This is a tactic known to both the Russ and Gotland. Of course, the Ross army is not afraid of sneak attacks. It's like a fly flying around in front of you. It's better to slap it to death without worrying about it. I love chinese net

Siegfast's hands were dead, and his broken forearm muscles formed a clearly visible mass under the flesh. He was tortured by pain and hunger, and he was groggy and awakened by a copper basin of cold water.

Arik looked down at the proud man of the past proudly: "Siegerfast, the prince of the Gotlanders. Now, we are going to put you back and get me up!"

After that, two of them untied the chain around the tree trunk around his neck.

Siegfast knelt down on the ground in a trance. Someone threw a small piece of mutton down. He was so hungry that he immediately got down and swallowed it, not afraid of the dirt on the meat.

This action caused roars of laughter among the onlookers of the Ross soldiers!

"This is a hound!"

"No, is a hound with a broken leg still a good dog?"

"He deserves his sin, and he actually feels that he has great powers, and now he is just a docile sheep."

Siegfast allowed the ridicule of the Ross people, because his soul was dead, and what remained was an empty shell.

The chain of tying the bull seized from Baisha Port is now the treasure of the tie, and the Ross soldiers took Siegfast and started to leave the camp and run towards the mound.

The camp of the Russ army is ten meters above sea level, so the so-called mound is not high.

Relatively, a forty-meter-high mound stands tall, but the height of a fourteen-story building, but the pine and oak trees growing on it make the mound more magnificent.

As he walked, Siegfast, who was a walking dead, was slightly awake, seeing that what happened to him was not as good as death. Where do you want to go now? Go to Visby? What on earth do these Ross people want? !

Siegfast didn't dare to abuse, the swelling on his face had not disappeared, and he knew that if he continued to abuse, his tongue would be cut off by them.

He was observing the army of the Russ. It was a group of warriors with strange bows. The marchers actually had one hand. There were also some short, black-haired men who carried big bows of astonishing length. Don't look at their small numbers. Siegfast knows this group of guys have become extremely powerful because of some magical weapons. He is eager to tell his father the news. The so-called don't try to fight against the Ross, even if it's victory. A miserable victory, and the probability of winning is too low.

He cast more perspectives on a despicable leader-the elite mercenary Glend.

This guy is good. Although he didn't carry a weapon, the Rus obviously valued him very much. He silently cursed Grund for not being able to die, and also cursed the Ross people for being destroyed by a huge wave and all sicknesses and deaths caused by heavy rain. No matter what the curse, Siegfast clearly realized that pure force is difficult to defeat this group of landing troops!

Soon after, the Rus climbed to the top of the mound, and Siegfast was tied to a tree like an animal, and was taken care of by the Rus.

The ten selected prisoners were expelled immediately.

They started walking down the mountain and stopped, and when they left, they turned their heads non-stop. It seemed that they were being abused and they developed feelings?

In fact, they were worried that they would suddenly be shot by the Ross people after they left, so they turned their heads in three steps. The so-called Ross people suddenly released arrows so that they could get down and avoid them.

"What's the matter with them? Why are they still chirping after letting them go." Rurik said displeased.

Arik didn't look good, so he ordered several fighters: "Frighten with arrows! Drive them away!"

The Ross man really shot an arrow! Rotary Feather Arrow came with a strong whistling sound. The captives of Baisha Port first got down and then stood up suddenly. The "tiger downhill" generally flees towards Visby in the west, and there are even people who are too panic, in the grass on the soil slope. She fell and bruised all over her body, but got up and ran desperately.

"They are really cowards. Such people can only fall into the underworld after death." Arik looked at their backs and shook his head in disdain.

Rurik sighed slightly: "They are all fishermen. Don't expect them to have the dignity of a soldier. You see, Siegfast wants a dog right now. But these cowards, they will be in Weiss Than spreading horror. Haha, I hope their great king will not be convulsed by the strength of our army."

"Dog?" This incident aroused Arik's thoughts: "I really want to raise a real dog, which can be used as a hunting partner. Maybe I will get one in Visby."

"Okay." Rurik shrugged. "I hope to get some horses. You know, we don't have horses, and neither do the Mälaren people. Is this kind of good cart animals said to be only Danes? Yes? The Gotlanders, as an ally of the Danes, hope that Visby has a horse."

Arik has never seen a horse in his life, and of course most Viking tribes are the same.

The Danes living in Jutland, as the neighboring kingdom of Saxony was destroyed by the Frankish Empire, the Danes not only directly bordered Frank, but also encountered Frankish cavalry for the first time. The markets of Hezeby and Sirius began to have bold Frankish merchants selling horses against the orders of Charlemagne. Even if the Frankish profiteers sell inferior horses, some Danish tribes bought them and immediately began to use the horse's sourcing ability. As for the upgrade to cavalry, the Danes were powerless until they got excellent riding horses.

Of course there are horses in Gotland, but they are just the treasures of some merchants. Merchants have to use horses to pull small trucks. In addition to the biggest advantage, I am afraid that they eat horse meat.

The ten slaves who were deliberately let go, carrying Duke Ross's war books, extortion clauses, and Siegfast's saber and other tokens that proved their identity, rushed to Visby frantically.

These people were quickly discovered by refugees camped outside Visby.

For the Visby people, they all saw the self-reliant Haken assigning his eldest son to take five hundred soldiers to explore the truth about Rose's entry into the bandits. This happened three days ago.

what happened? The five hundred soldiers of Prince Siegfast were wiped out? It seems this is true!

Rurik's plan is being implemented by the rushing Baishagang fugitives, who hyped in Visby that the powerful Rus people were in the bridge village to the east of the mound, and even the failure of the Pathfinder troops.

The Ross army has come to the city! They will kill Visby, kill everyone, take wealth, and burn everything.

People began to run in panic. The panic spread quickly from outside to inside. People shouted as they walked. Finally, it was rumored that the Ross army, which was 10,000 people, had already killed Visby.

A large number of people fled to the beach, and if it weren't for Harken's fighters to stop people from taking the ship, Visby's escape across the sea would begin. Some people were beheaded, and their fleeing across the sea was stopped. After waking up, the people began to gather in the chamber and the altar again.

Although the Visby people are actively preparing for war these days, the news that King Haken killed the runaway has spread wildly in the settlement, and no ships have defied the order to enter the sea these days.

The men in Visby were polishing their weapons and repairing shields, and many women also took up weapons to prepare for battle. Visby has reached a critical juncture, everyone must fight to protect their farmland, pasture, fishery, and the most critical altar.

In this way, there is no problem for the Gotlanders to gather an army of five thousand people, and a large number of young women can also go to the battlefield with weapons and actively participate in the fight. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

The Rus are forced to be deep in a sinister place, and gradually become more protective of the tribe's women. But for people in other parts of this sea, it is normal for female fighters to participate in the fight.

Rurik brought a group of young girls into the team in the form of crossbowmen. At first, many tribesmen criticized them, but some tribesmen who understand the old traditions talked about this kind of behavior.

The terrible news is spreading wildly. Those people who claim to be ready for battle have now gathered outside the courtroom. The whole world is extremely noisy. People are shouting and questioning, and people are crying.

People are actually afraid of a decisive battle in their hearts, and everyone knows that the Ross people will not give up easily, and war may be inevitable.

But these thousands of ordinary people didn't know that the distinguished businessmen in the courtroom, they had ghosts in their hearts, yelling about a decisive battle, this secret thought...
