Compared to last year, this time the Rossone’s Sorgon voyage was significantly delayed.
This time, the Ross people didn't just ask for more tributes. The reason for the delay was really because they had to spend time and energy to prepare materials to support the construction of Fort Shilla.
Otto never thought that Gould would bring enough food for the entire tribe from the south, and part of it would be used for funding.
September 15th was really bleak in autumn. The cool breeze of the vast season always poured into the fjord, and the surrounding oaks kept falling down with dead leaves, only the dark green pine trees still survived completely.
The climate is exaggerating an atmosphere of silence, and no one likes this.
In fact, no one likes winter, it is not beautiful at all, but a little carelessness can make mortals freeze into icy lumps. In winter, humans also live the life of marmots, stay indoors as much as possible to survive the long winter.
Of course, except for the winter solstice day, the entire tribe will be crazy about it.
There are boats everywhere on the beach, and the sea in the fjord is full of sails.
Especially the wharf built by the Goulds has been reinforced and the number of berths available for berthing has been increased by four.
After all, autumn is here, and some travellers sell their things and set sail back to their hometowns in the South. In the end, those guys who didn't leave were just a list of fur merchants who stayed. They either decided to catch them in winter or simply buy the fruits of the Ross Hunters. In a sense, they just came looking at the snowy and extremely silky fur of the ferret.
Some strong men carried sacks full of grain on their shoulders and transported them to the large transport ships.
By now, Gould, who had transformed his identity into a Ros, naturally wanted to take a share of the Sorgon voyage.
This time, Gould provided the best transport ship, and only his help enabled the Roths to load more supplies without using too many ships.
In the autumn, those people who intend to immigrate to Fort New Ross will not take risks in this dangerous season.
Because of Rurik’s suggestion, the tribe had 50,000 pounds of oats to transport, and more than 1,000 pounds of carrots.
Their total weight is actually as high as four tons!
The Ross tribe’s own transport ships, it is very risky to expect two or three ships to transport them. Especially in autumn, if the sea waves are too turbulent, the ship will be destroyed and the people will feed the fish.
The Roths needed Gould's help. Only two large transport ships could perfectly load these cargoes. Not to mention, there was still quite a lot of space left for passengers.
It is also completely different from the rowing boats of the Ross people. When a boat is big enough, is rowing still the best way to drive it? A group of professional sailors raised by Gould, although they often play the role of porters, are now very good sailors.
There are grains, vegetables, and the latest batch of production tools.
In the beginning, Otto, based on the responsibility of the chief leader, really thought about funding his own people out of his own pocket.
His mentality has changed.
Why is it necessary to subsidize freely? The goods and grains transported belong to the chief family, and those immigrants must pay to obtain it.
Otto followed Rurik’s advice and has already set a plan to collect taxes next year.
Grain is not only rations but also planting food, and the brand-new Quyuan Plow is a sharp weapon for reclamation. As for the livestock Otto that was handed over to the settlers to raise before, the food and tools can be "given" to them. As for the remuneration, it will be one-tenth of the harvest they will receive next year! This tax will continue forever.
It is true that Rurik proposed the concept of "eleven taxes" to his father Otto, which itself was also the taxation model used in ancient Rome.
Can this taxation model also be used in Novgorod?
Otto entered this trip with multiple purposes, and his actions this fall are of extraordinary significance!
At noon, the elderly Veria set up an altar on the beach.
A sheep purchased from a merchant was sacrificed, and Lumia was also entrusted with an important task in the sacrifice.
This deer-raiser girl has never been afraid of **** things, because in her life, any child must live like a hunter. Because that is the way of life of deer breeders.
She slaughtered the sheep very decisively, and under Veria's guidance, took out the hot lamb liver.
Veria announced that this year's voyage must be calm and smooth. Of course, regardless of the arrangement of the blood vessels in the liver of sheep or other animals, Veria has always declared auspiciousness. In fact, this is just a cutscene, Otto really knows the doorway inside, but her announcement is very important to ordinary people involved in the action.
Because we sail slowly, what everyone yearns for is peace.
An old voice announced auspiciousness with a slightly hoarse voice, and soon the entire beach fell into a frenzy.
The people are so enthusiastic, Otto is also moved by it.
Otto, with a leather armor and a beard, is already standing on the bow of his flagship. He stroked the terrifyingly embossed "dragon head" and swung his patterned steel sword high.
All the people on the sandy land are infected by the enthusiasm of the leader.
Even many women holding children.
"Brothers! Watch your women, your children, don't let them get too bumpy at sea!"
"Women! After returning to our hometown, tell your loved ones that we Ruths are powerful and kind. Tell them that only by surrendering to the Rus can we get rewards and protection."
"Brothers! The woman who escorted you on board! The high priest has made a wish to Odin, this time we have a safe journey! Let us go!"
A group of young brawny men seemed to be beaten up. They began to push the boat into the sea, and the crowd of onlookers raised their hands and cheered.
Some women even gathered and sang the ancient songs of the Ross tribe.
The melody is beautiful, and Rurik has also heard from the ballad the wife's hope for the victory of her husband. There is no trace of sentimental atmosphere in it, simply because everyone believes that any form of expedition by the Ross tribe will only gain victory.
This time Rurik was standing on the shore, in front of his father's flagship.
The young burly man worked hard to push the flagship, and left a trace of a keel on the sand.
Just like his father had been holding a sword, Rurik also drew his short sword.
"Dad! Remember our agreement, our tribe will be strong because of this."
"I see! Leurik, stay in my hometown. When I come back, you'd better make me some new tricks." Otto shouted loudly.
It seems to be nothing more than a farewell from the leader, father and son, no one knows what that "new trick" means.
At the same time, Otto was pleased to see the two girls standing next to his son. Carlota and Ella, they tried their best to shout "Goodbye Dad", it really made Otto a little dazed. It was as if they had indeed inherited their blood.
A fleet of fifty ships rushed to the east with great strength.
This time Otto again brought an army of more than five hundred men.
If only to collect tribute, why do we have to bring so many people? To put it bluntly, Otto is still wary of the Novgorod people.
The White Tree Manor was willing to be a loyal dog because he knew that cooperation would bring great benefits. Besides, the White Tree Manor itself is squeezed out by other local manors, and they naturally need a strong backing.
In the other Novgorod manor, their cooperation was based on the powerful military deterrence of the Rus.
Among them, Pine Needle Manor, the most populous, must be further weakened. Otto felt that the only way to effectively control Novgorod was to support the white trees, hit the pine needles, and draw one group by one group.
As for the benevolent treatment described by his son Rülik and giving them some useful tools, they would readily surrender to such conjectures. Such thoughts are really naive.
Those tools for plowing and turning soil must of course be given to loyal dogs. Good things are currently only owned by White Tree Manor.
Not only for her own strategic purposes, but also the eldest lady of White Tree Manor, sitting on her flagship with a slightly bulging belly. Most of the women carried by the fleet also came from the White Tree Manor.
Otto can feel that the relationship between the two ethnic groups has never been closer than it is today.
The fleet gradually disappeared from sight, and the people on the shore still did not retreat.
There was a lot of discussion about the future prospects, and many people began to discuss the possibility of emigrating to Fort Shilla.
After all, Shilla Fort is warmer anyway, because the rumors of the previous sea monsters have been self-defeating because of the public display of the Quyuan Plow, and it turns out that this thing is the farming machine invented by Rurik.
This shows what?
Almost all ethnic people are illiterate, which does not mean that they have no life experience. The leader's family began to study farming equipment, which is not exactly an indication that there is a future in the land that can be reclaimed.
The reality also forced the tribe to have the idea of emigrating, and the boundaries of Roseburg were indeed too crowded. If you don’t want to live on the hill on the beach, you have to emigrate.
The cool breeze dried Niya's tears, and her sad husband went on a long journey again. Although there is no danger for her husband as the leader to take a voyage with a strong man, she is getting older, and her mind is full of worries.
The only thing that can comfort her now is that her son is still with him. Now, there are two more girls around.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and Rurik returned to his home.
Suddenly a strong man who loves to drink is missing, Niya prepares dinner as usual, but her heart is a little empty.
"Mom, are you worried about anything?" Rurik noticed his mother's strangeness.
"No, it's nothing." Niya's numb face forced a smile. She subconsciously stroked her son's little head, and said, "Eat quickly. Rest early after eating."
"But, my Lumia hasn't come back yet."
"She? She did well this year, maybe the high priest will continue to teach her some homework."
Rurik had to admire the decisiveness of his maid, even he felt panicked.
When he poked the sacrificed deer to death, Rurik was very nervous for a while. However, what Rurik witnessed today was that Lumia severed the neck of the sheep with a very calm posture, and cut the belly of the sheep while the sheep was still trembling slightly. Being so skilled is like a real butcher.
At the time of the sacrifice, Rurik and Otto both knelt on one knee by the beach altar, and Rurik knew everything that happened.
Rurik ate some meat, and the meat in this pottery bowl was the sheep cooked as a sacrifice at noon. Not to mention, the clear boiled lamb sprinkled with sea salt has a mutton taste. This mutton taste with Shanghai salt is simply salty and fresh.
At this time, Lumia came back suddenly.
As if she had returned to her own home, she continued to put on her linen robe, sniffing the aroma of the food, and subconsciously approached Rurik's position. She tidyed up her robe, sat down cross-legged, and then took off the hood, revealing her clean face and the braids behind her head.
"You can count back, I thought Veria left you late again and called you some complicated prayers."
Lumia smiled: "She praised me, saying that I really look like a high priest."
"Did you kill this sheep?" As he said, Rurik deliberately pointed to the meat in the bowl.
Lumia laughed out loud: "Yes."
"You're so decisive, it's as if you... are an expert in the first place."
Rurik’s words were a little cautious, but Lumia was even more proud: "This is normal. I am a deer breeder, and I have executed deer myself. There are even groundhogs, rabbits and the like."
"This..." The scene was a bit embarrassing, and Rurik was shocked again. He never thought that Lumia would still be a "butcher".
Rurik reluctantly asked, "Lumia, when you executed the first animal, how old was it, and what tools did you use?"
"Probably six years old, it's a rabbit. I used a stone knife, and I can't remember many things. Alas, I'm so hungry now, can you reward me with something? Masta?" Lumia said. Become gentle, she just wants to suppress her inner pain in this way.
Lumia doesn't hate the group of Ross people, she is Otto this person cruelly. And her favorite is Otto's son Rurik.
Although there is a very contradiction here, it is also a real reality.
She even hoped that the blood vessels of the sheep’s liver showed a bad omen. If Otto’s fleet was overturned, it would naturally be Rurik that would quickly take over. At that time, his status will be improved again.
Lumia, who was only eleven years old, had already germinated the idea of marching into a higher position of power in her heart, but she was completely different from the dead Bona in that she really knew that what she currently had was from Rurik. Rewards.
She especially believed in the absoluteness of the oath-if she was unfaithful to Rurik, Odin would retaliate by lowering the extreme cold.
Rurik noticed that Rumia also had a cruel side, and Niya, for the first time, she felt that Rumia was dangerous. She didn't want Lumia to be squeezed in a wooden bed with Rurik. Besides, how could a humble servant be entitled to such high treatment?
Since the son didn't mention it, Niya didn't say much. But now she really found the reason.
"Rurik," Niya said.
"mom?"
"Your father has gone to the East. You will sleep with me tonight."
"This..." Rurik glanced at Lumia, and hurriedly responded: "Well, mother."
It was Rurik's subconscious move that made Niya more vigilant. Since Lumia entered the door, the girl's previous humility and cowardice disappeared, but she approached her master very freely, without the presence of a servant.
Niya accidentally understood the unnaturalness here, but the reason is actually very simple.
Lumia will never forget, the ruins of her own house under a snowy night, the violent face of Otto, the leader of Ross, who tied her hands and feet with twine. If Otto is not there, and there is only one master who cares about him, Lurik, what else is there to be afraid of?
Niya continued: "Before your father comes back, you sleep with me every night, understand?"
"Oh fine."
"That's right." Niya smiled relievedly.
Then she asked: "Rurik, are you ready to do something? Your father wants you to do something new, maybe you have promised."
"Yup."
"what exactly is it?!"
Rurik's face calmed down, and he looked at Carlotta and Ella who were sitting quietly eating meat.
He particularly withstood Carlotta's eyes: "Carrotta, I think you will never forget the hatred of the destruction of the tribe."
She was a calm girl, her white face suddenly became sullen, and her mouth also showed the gap of cracked milk teeth. She hated Xiaoya for gnashing her teeth, and her little hand tightened the two wooden sticks (Kalotta was learning to use chopsticks to hold the pieces of meat).
"I must take revenge! For a tooth for a tooth!"
She was really talking about a tooth for a tooth, and Rurik felt that the words spoken from the mouth of her toothless child really meant "a tooth for a tooth" in a realistic sense.
"That's good." Rurik knocked on the table and said, "I think it's good, you children of the Ostara tribe are mainly little girls! I want you to organize them, I want to be like a training boy That way, train them."
"Ah?! Ryurik?!" Carlotta was taken aback. "Are you going to train my people to fight? They are all women!"
"Why do you doubt it? Can't a woman be a warrior?"
"This... if you don't think we are women."
"How come? I have decided. Anyway, sooner or later, I will train the girls of our tribe. I believe that only a good woman can give birth to a good man. You Aostala people accept the help of our Rus people, Naturally follow my command."
There are many legends of female warriors in the Viking world. Although everyone does not want women to enter the battlefield, since the Valkyrie who selects the heroes is a woman, everyone also likes to hear the legends of female warriors on the battlefield.
Rurik didn't want the future young women of his tribe to really become female warriors. They must at least receive a certain amount of military training. This training is more to cultivate their obedience, UU reading www. uukanshu. com and overall discipline.
Rurik continued, "So I need a woman who can be trusted as a deputy. Carlotta, I think you can."
"I?"
"Yes! I will organize my maids, they are probably the same age as you. In the end, you may command one hundred and fifty girls. You know what I did in the back mountains, and the girls must also Finish that kind of training. When you show up in front of my father at a neat pace, even if there are only a group of children left in your Ostala people, you will be praised by our Ross people."
Up to now, the only thing the Ostara people can't lose is their own glory.
Carlotta agreed, because it would bring new glory.
Where's Rurik? He just wants to give a group of girls military training, but also must receive weapon training, Rurik felt that one day he might use the power of women. So that the number of males in the Ross tribe can no longer be used to quell the fighting power of the tribe.
In critical moments, women must become some kind of reliable fighting force to defend the glory and dignity of the Ross people.

Rurik didn't want the future young women of his tribe to really become female warriors. They must at least receive a certain amount of military training. This training is more to cultivate their obedience, UU reading www. uukanshu. com and overall discipline.
Rurik continued, "So I need a woman who can be trusted as a deputy. Carlotta, I think you can."
"I?"
"Yes! I will organize my maids, they are probably the same age as you. In the end, you may command one hundred and fifty girls. You know what I did in the back mountains, and the girls must also Finish that kind of training. When you show up in front of my father at a neat pace, even if there are only a group of children left in your Ostala people, you will be praised by our Ross people."
Up to now, the only thing the Ostara people can't lose is their own glory.
Carlotta agreed, because it would bring new glory.
Where's Rurik? He just wants to give a group of girls military training, but also must receive weapon training, Rurik felt that one day he might use the power of women. So that the number of males in the Ross tribe can no longer be used to quell the fighting power of the tribe.
In critical moments, women must become some kind of reliable fighting force to defend the glory and dignity of the Ross people.
Compared to last year, this time the Rossone's Sorgon voyage was significantly delayed.This time, the Ross people didn't just ask for more tributes. The reason for the delay was really because they had to spend time and energy to prepare materials to support the construction of Fort Shilla.Otto never thought that Gould would bring enough food for the entire tribe from the south, and part of it would be used for funding.September 15th was really bleak in autumn. The cool breeze of the vast season always poured into the fjord, and the surrounding oaks kept falling down with dead leaves, only the dark green pine trees still survived completely.The climate is exaggerating an atmosphere of silence, and no one likes this.In fact, no one likes winter, it is not beautiful at all, but a little carelessness can make mortals freeze into icy lumps. In winter, humans also live the life of marmots, stay indoors as much as possible to survive the long winter.Of course, except for the winter solstice day, the entire tribe will be crazy about it.There are boats everywhere on the beach, and the sea in the fjord is full of sails.Especially the wharf built by the Goulds has been reinforced and the number of berths available for berthing has been increased by four.After all, autumn is here, and some travellers sell their things and set sail back to their hometowns in the South. In the end, those guys who didn't leave were just a list of fur merchants who stayed. They either decided to catch them in winter or simply buy the fruits of the Ross Hunters. In a sense, they just came looking at the snowy and extremely silky fur of the ferret.Some strong men carried sacks full of grain on their shoulders and transported them to the large transport ships.By now, Gould, who had transformed his identity into a Ros, naturally wanted to take a share of the Sorgon voyage.This time, Gould provided the best transport ship, and only his help enabled the Roths to load more supplies without using too many ships.In the autumn, those people who intend to immigrate to Fort New Ross will not take risks in this dangerous season.Because of Rurik's suggestion, the tribe had 50,000 pounds of oats to transport, and more than 1,000 pounds of carrots.Their total weight is actually as high as four tons!The Ross tribe's own transport ships, it is very risky to expect two or three ships to transport them. Especially in autumn, if the sea waves are too turbulent, the ship will be destroyed and the people will feed the fish.The Roths needed Gould's help. Only two large transport ships could perfectly load these cargoes. Not to mention, there was still quite a lot of space left for passengers.It is also completely different from the rowing boats of the Ross people. When a boat is big enough, is rowing still the best way to drive it? A group of professional sailors raised by Gould, although they often play the role of porters, are now very good sailors.There are grains, vegetables, and the latest batch of production tools.In the beginning, Otto, based on the responsibility of the chief leader, really thought about funding his own people out of his own pocket.His mentality has changed.Why is it necessary to subsidize freely? The goods and grains transported belong to the chief family, and those immigrants must pay to obtain it.Otto followed Rurik's advice and has already set a plan to collect taxes next year.Grain is not only rations but also planting food, and the brand-new Quyuan Plow is a sharp weapon for reclamation. As for the livestock Otto that was handed over to the settlers to raise before, the food and tools can be "given" to them. As for the remuneration, it will be one-tenth of the harvest they will receive next year! This tax will continue forever.It is true that Rurik proposed the concept of "eleven taxes" to his father Otto, which itself was also the taxation model used in ancient Rome.Can this taxation model also be used in Novgorod?Otto entered this trip with multiple purposes, and his actions this fall are of extraordinary significance!At noon, the elderly Veria set up an altar on the beach.A sheep purchased from a merchant was sacrificed, and Lumia was also entrusted with an important task in the sacrifice.This deer-raiser girl has never been afraid of **** things, because in her life, any child must live like a hunter. Because that is the way of life of deer breeders.She slaughtered the sheep very decisively, and under Veria's guidance, took out the hot lamb liver.Veria announced that this year's voyage must be calm and smooth. Of course, regardless of the arrangement of the blood vessels in the liver of sheep or other animals, Veria has always declared auspiciousness. In fact, this is just a cutscene, Otto really knows the doorway inside, but her announcement is very important to ordinary people involved in the action.Because we sail slowly, what everyone yearns for is peace.An old voice announced auspiciousness with a slightly hoarse voice, and soon the entire beach fell into a frenzy.The people are so enthusiastic, Otto is also moved by it.Otto, with a leather armor and a beard, is already standing on the bow of his flagship. He stroked the terrifyingly embossed "dragon head" and swung his patterned steel sword high.All the people on the sandy land are infected by the enthusiasm of the leader.Even many women holding children."Brothers! Watch your women, your children, don't let them get too bumpy at sea!""Women! After returning to our hometown, tell your loved ones that we Ruths are powerful and kind. Tell them that only by surrendering to the Rus can we get rewards and protection.""Brothers! The woman who escorted you on board! The high priest has made a wish to Odin, this time we have a safe journey! Let us go!"A group of young brawny men seemed to be beaten up. They began to push the boat into the sea, and the crowd of onlookers raised their hands and cheered.Some women even gathered and sang the ancient songs of the Ross tribe.The melody is beautiful, and Rurik has also heard from the ballad the wife's hope for the victory of her husband. There is no trace of sentimental atmosphere in it, simply because everyone believes that any form of expedition by the Ross tribe will only gain victory.This time Rurik was standing on the shore, in front of his father's flagship.The young burly man worked hard to push the flagship, and left a trace of a keel on the sand.Just like his father had been holding a sword, Rurik also drew his short sword."Dad! Remember our agreement, our tribe will be strong because of this.""I see! Leurik, stay in my hometown. When I come back, you'd better make me some new tricks." Otto shouted loudly.It seems to be nothing more than a farewell from the leader, father and son, no one knows what that "new trick" means.At the same time, Otto was pleased to see the two girls standing next to his son. Carlota and Ella, they tried their best to shout "Goodbye Dad", it really made Otto a little dazed. It was as if they had indeed inherited their blood.A fleet of fifty ships rushed to the east with great strength.This time Otto again brought an army of more than five hundred men.If only to collect tribute, why do we have to bring so many people? To put it bluntly, Otto is still wary of the Novgorod people.The White Tree Manor was willing to be a loyal dog because he knew that cooperation would bring great benefits. Besides, the White Tree Manor itself is squeezed out by other local manors, and they naturally need a strong backing.In the other Novgorod manor, their cooperation was based on the powerful military deterrence of the Rus.Among them, Pine Needle Manor, the most populous, must be further weakened. Otto felt that the only way to effectively control Novgorod was to support the white trees, hit the pine needles, and draw one group by one group.As for the benevolent treatment described by his son Rlik and giving them some useful tools, they would readily surrender to such conjectures. Such thoughts are really naive.Those tools for plowing and turning soil must of course be given to loyal dogs. Good things are currently only owned by White Tree Manor.Not only for her own strategic purposes, but also the eldest lady of White Tree Manor, sitting on her flagship with a slightly bulging belly. Most of the women carried by the fleet also came from the White Tree Manor.Otto can feel that the relationship between the two ethnic groups has never been closer than it is today.The fleet gradually disappeared from sight, and the people on the shore still did not retreat.There was a lot of discussion about the future prospects, and many people began to discuss the possibility of emigrating to Fort Shilla.After all, Shilla Fort is warmer anyway, because the rumors of the previous sea monsters have been self-defeating because of the public display of the Quyuan Plow, and it turns out that this thing is the farming machine invented by Rurik.This shows what?Almost all ethnic people are illiterate, which does not mean that they have no life experience. The leader's family began to study farming equipment, which is not exactly an indication that there is a future in the land that can be reclaimed.The reality also forced the tribe to have the idea of emigrating, and the boundaries of Roseburg were indeed too crowded. If you don't want to live on the hill on the beach, you have to emigrate.The cool breeze dried Niya's tears, and her sad husband went on a long journey again. Although there is no danger for her husband as the leader to take a voyage with a strong man, she is getting older, and her mind is full of worries.The only thing that can comfort her now is that her son is still with him. Now, there are two more girls around.The crowd gradually dispersed, and Rurik returned to his home.Suddenly a strong man who loves to drink is missing, Niya prepares dinner as usual, but her heart is a little empty."Mom, are you worried about anything?" Rurik noticed his mother's strangeness."No, it's nothing." Niya's numb face forced a smile. She subconsciously stroked her son's little head, and said, "Eat quickly. Rest early after eating.""But, my Lumia hasn't come back yet.""She? She did well this year, maybe the high priest will continue to teach her some homework."Rurik had to admire the decisiveness of his maid, even he felt panicked.When he poked the sacrificed deer to death, Rurik was very nervous for a while. However, what Rurik witnessed today was that Lumia severed the neck of the sheep with a very calm posture, and cut the belly of the sheep while the sheep was still trembling slightly. Being so skilled is like a real butcher.At the time of the sacrifice, Rurik and Otto both knelt on one knee by the beach altar, and Rurik knew everything that happened.Rurik ate some meat, and the meat in this pottery bowl was the sheep cooked as a sacrifice at noon. Not to mention, the clear boiled lamb sprinkled with sea salt has a mutton taste. This mutton taste with Shanghai salt is simply salty and fresh.At this time, Lumia came back suddenly.As if she had returned to her own home, she continued to put on her linen robe, sniffing the aroma of the food, and subconsciously approached Rurik's position. She tidyed up her robe, sat down cross-legged, and then took off the hood, revealing her clean face and the braids behind her head."You can count back, I thought Veria left you late again and called you some complicated prayers."Lumia smiled: "She praised me, saying that I really look like a high priest.""Did you kill this sheep?" As he said, Rurik deliberately pointed to the meat in the bowl.Lumia laughed out loud: "Yes.""You're so decisive, it's as if you... are an expert in the first place."Rurik's words were a little cautious, but Lumia was even more proud: "This is normal. I am a deer breeder, and I have executed deer myself. There are even groundhogs, rabbits and the like.""This..." The scene was a bit embarrassing, and Rurik was shocked again. He never thought that Lumia would still be a "butcher".Rurik reluctantly asked, "Lumia, when you executed the first animal, how old was it, and what tools did you use?""Probably six years old, it's a rabbit. I used a stone knife, and I can't remember many things. Alas, I'm so hungry now, can you reward me with something? Masta?" Lumia said. Become gentle, she just wants to suppress her inner pain in this way.Lumia doesn't hate the group of Ross people, she is Otto this person cruelly. And her favorite is Otto's son Rurik.Although there is a very contradiction here, it is also a real reality.She even hoped that the blood vessels of the sheep's liver showed a bad omen. If Otto's fleet was overturned, it would naturally be Rurik that would quickly take over. At that time, his status will be improved again.Lumia, who was only eleven years old, had already germinated the idea of marching into a higher position of power in her heart, but she was completely different from the dead Bona in that she really knew that what she currently had was from Rurik. Rewards.She especially believed in the absoluteness of the oath-if she was unfaithful to Rurik, Odin would retaliate by lowering the extreme cold.Rurik noticed that Rumia also had a cruel side, and Niya, for the first time, she felt that Rumia was dangerous. She didn't want Lumia to be squeezed in a wooden bed with Rurik. Besides, how could a humble servant be entitled to such high treatment?Since the son didn't mention it, Niya didn't say much. But now she really found the reason."Rurik," Niya said."mom?""Your father has gone to the East. You will sleep with me tonight.""This..." Rurik glanced at Lumia, and hurriedly responded: "Well, mother."It was Rurik's subconscious move that made Niya more vigilant. Since Lumia entered the door, the girl's previous humility and cowardice disappeared, but she approached her master very freely, without the presence of a servant.Niya accidentally understood the unnaturalness here, but the reason is actually very simple.Lumia will never forget, the ruins of her own house under a snowy night, the violent face of Otto, the leader of Ross, who tied her hands and feet with twine. If Otto is not there, and there is only one master who cares about him, Lurik, what else is there to be afraid of?Niya continued: "Before your father comes back, you sleep with me every night, understand?""Oh fine.""That's right." Niya smiled relievedly.Then she asked: "Rurik, are you ready to do something? Your father wants you to do something new, maybe you have promised.""Yup.""what exactly is it?!"Rurik's face calmed down, and he looked at Carlotta and Ella who were sitting quietly eating meat.He particularly withstood Carlotta's eyes: "Carrotta, I think you will never forget the hatred of the destruction of the tribe."She was a calm girl, her white face suddenly became sullen, and her mouth also showed the gap of cracked milk teeth. She hated Xiaoya for gnashing her teeth, and her little hand tightened the two wooden sticks Kalotta was learning to use chopsticks to hold the pieces of meat."I must take revenge! For a tooth for a tooth!"She was really talking about a tooth for a tooth, and Rurik felt that the words spoken from the mouth of her toothless child really meant "a tooth for a tooth" in a realistic sense."That's good." Rurik knocked on the table and said, "I think it's good, you children of the Ostara tribe are mainly little girls! I want you to organize them, I want to be like a training boy That way, train them.""Ah?! Ryurik?!" Carlotta was taken aback. "Are you going to train my people to fight? They are all women!""Why do you doubt it? Can't a woman be a warrior?""This... if you don't think we are women.""How come? I have decided. Anyway, sooner or later, I will train the girls of our tribe. I believe that only a good woman can give birth to a good man. You Aostala people accept the help of our Rus people, Naturally follow my command."There are many legends of female warriors in the Viking world.
