In the evening, Otto arrived at the riverside village with his army carrying a large number of trophies.

The sky gradually dimmed, and a large number of bonfires were gradually lit in the villages under the control of the Rus.

Since the attack was not the real target, Otto, who felt deceived, wanted to bring that stupid dog out and beat him up.

The so-called stupid dog is exactly Woima Kashad, the Corvin who led the way.

When Otto came to the village, he saw the deer breeders who had prepared a large amount of firewood, and he also saw the ale hidden by the Corvins, and the left-behind people who drank alcohol on their own.

Even Lumia, the girl was already using the clay pot she found to stew meat.

Otto is very satisfied. Lumia is cooking the bear meat that she hunted before. This is her own dinner.

Lumia used stones to build a small stove outdoors. At this moment, the bonfire has boiled the soup pot, and you can smell the meat when you get close.

Seeing the triumphant victory of the army, Lumia immediately stood up and asked all the deer breeders to greet the Ross army.

Otto was in a good mood. He approached the boiling soup pot, pulled out the sword and directly inserted it into the bear meat, and directly fished out a lump of meat. He took a bite and expressed his satisfaction.

"Lumia, you did a great job."

"Thank you...big boss." Lumia said timidly.

"Next, your host will give you a gift."

As soon as Otto’s voice fell, Lumia suddenly saw her Rurik pop up, and his hand was pulling a little brown-haired girl.

"Lu Mia, I'm back." Rurik put on an enthusiastic smile, but the current scene made Lu Mia a little strange.

"Masta, I will prepare dinner for you soon."

"Don't worry. Get to know this girl first." After that, Rurik pushed the little girl with fear on her face to her side. Then he pushed her directly towards Lumia.

A child leaped towards herself when she slipped, Lumia opened her hand subconsciously and grabbed her.

"Who is she...?"

Rurik raised his chin: "Everything is destiny. Her name is Rumi, which is the same as your name. She is a Corvin, and I'm sure your language is exactly the same as hers."

Lumia was taken aback. She listened to Rurik's words and immediately asked in ancient Sami language.

It was precisely because of this question that the little girl Lumi, who had been trapped in fear, suddenly felt that she was in the arms of a big sister of the same race.

"Are you from my tribe?" the little girl asked cautiously.

Lumia was shocked and hugged the child tightly. Because at this moment, Lumia thought of her dead sister. If her sister was still alive, she would probably be at this age.

"I am your tribe." Lumia responded enthusiastically: "From now on, you will be my sister."

I heard that the little girl Lumi had two lines of tears.

In fact, in a sense, Lumia and Lumi, two girls belonging to different ethnic groups, are essentially a family. They all understand the term "Suomi" because the Sami and Kovin people who raise deer , And even Tavastians and Karelians are essentially Suomi and Finns.

So there is a natural similarity between the looks of the two girls.

Rurik was very happy to see such a warm scene, which was a psychological comfort to the war that had just ended.

He said loudly, "Lumia, she will be your maid from now on. I need you to train her."

Lumia did not understand the master's arrangement: "Masta, I am your servant. Can a servant also have a servant?"

The problem is that there are some matryoshka dolls. Rurik changed his mind and said directly: "She is the granddaughter of the leader of this tribe. Her name is the same as yours. Everything is destiny and is the will of God. You are destined to be sisters. , So I need you to train her to become a second priest."

As soon as this is over, Lumia fully understands, "Masta, I will not humiliate my mission."

Rurik nodded. In fact, his real idea is to further expand the team. Of course, priests are not alone. Priests need a group, a group that is only loyal to themselves, so for every lower priest who constitutes this group, Rurik feels that at this stage he needs to be selected by himself.

Rumia was not the only one who got a servant, Kawei also got his own servant.

Specifically, ten boys.

The language barrier is not a problem for the time being, because Kawei can speak a little Finnish vocabulary. In the future, he only needs to teach these boys how to speak Norse.

In the final analysis, Kawei is very happy that Rurik and Otto have given himself the opportunity to expand the blacksmith team. He originally felt that his smithy had more helpers and apprentices, and he needed the chief Otto to go to Novgorod in May to bring him back a group of boys.

The condition of these Corvin boys is no worse than that of Kamnier.

Besides, Kamnier is from Rurik, and these Corvin boys are the little blacksmiths that they can always control and train.

Kawei was about to train ten selected boys to become blacksmiths, and Kaihas, the chief of the Salmon Lord tribe, was taken aback.

blacksmith! The blacksmiths of the entire tribe can count them with one hand, and to make matters worse, the blacksmiths have been killed in battle. If the tribe wants to develop, it must have a blacksmith, and secondly it also needs to obtain ore.

Kaihas couldn't help thinking that the young Ross man claimed to be the best blacksmith of the Ross tribe, and a group of boys from his tribe were selected, which might be a good thing for the boys. They should have lived their lives in peace, but if they became blacksmiths, everything would be different.

Also, Kaihas believed that the boys of his tribe would never forget that he was the man who was the Lord of Salmon even when he arrived at the hometown of the Ross people.

He even began to fantasize that if the Ross people weren't coming aggressively, they wouldn't attack by force without negotiation. The two sides first conduct negotiations, and they will also choose to surrender because it is profitable.

Kejas understood the situation, and it might be beneficial to cooperate with the Ross people.

More than a dozen half-crypted houses were crowded with all the surviving Kewen tribesmen. Their morale has long since collapsed, and they have lost the courage to resist the Ruths. They see the reality clearly, that is, they have exhausted the fighting power of the entire tribe, and the defensive advantage of the stone wall of the mountain fort, still being beaten by the Ross people like cutting melons and vegetables.

At least up to now, the Ross conquerors have no plans to kill anymore.

Chief Kehas said that as long as everyone surrenders and takes out some leather to the Ross people every year, they will not be attacked again.

Even the Ross people made a very attractive promise-you are all slaves of the Ross people. Whoever attacks you is an enemy of the Ross people, and the Ross people will crusade.

The men of the Salmon Lords tribe gathered together couldn't help whispering, and everyone's attitude gradually came to a unified. Although a large number of tribes died, what could it be? Life has to go on.

Because of the woman and the child, they are now controlled by the Ross people.

But the leader Kehas was also controlled by the Rus, and it seemed that there was something to be discussed.

Hopefully, the leader can win some benefits for everyone in the tribe.

Otto, who returned from victory, deliberately pulled out and punish the guy who led the way, but what he saw was the negligent subordinate and the fact that the leader was nowhere to be seen.

After slapped the guards a few times, he had no choice but to express his innocence, and he actually believed the dog.

Kaijas has been following the leader of Rose, but Wei Nuo will learn about it.

Being deceived, Otto was furious. He slapped his chin, then suddenly turned around and grabbed Kaijas's neck, and said viciously: "One of my dogs has escaped. What about you? Will your dog betray?"

After hearing the translation, Kehas was already scared to diapers.

Otto rolled his eyes and saw what was dripping under the other's soft legs.

"Forgive you for not dare. Go! Take me to your council house."

Is there any special council in the Salmon Lord’s village? If there is, it is Kaihas’s own home.

Even as the leader of the village, his half-crypted house seemed to Otto to be unbearable for Fira.

Because of Otto, he has adapted to and loves the "Novgorod-style woodcut" that his son built for him. To put it bluntly, it is a wooden house with a modern aesthetic. If electrical equipment is installed, the wooden house is proper. Twentieth century architecture.

Otto sneered at the series of thatched huts in this village, but he couldn't deny it. Since the tribes found a lot of fur, he felt that this year's "North Hunter" should do everything possible to search for it.

Otto and several Kongwu warriors became the new owners of the village chief's house.

Kaihas did not dare to offend these madmen, and the tribe was completely defeated. All he can think of now is to "reward" these madmen with tribal women. But things are very bizarre, these madmen don't seem to be interested in women.

Kejas didn't believe it. He asked his wife and daughter-in-law to "take care" Otto.

To be fair, Otto is more than 50 years old, and he is still a powerful man in Kong Wu. Of course he was moved by these women, but he had lived a long time, and his reason had already prevailed.

Otto is indeed sensible. When he thinks that if he doesn't control it and causes his son to have an extra younger brother, isn't it just adding chaos to his son's future power? The current situation is that even if it is to consolidate future power for Rurik, the child does not need a young brother at all. There are already a group of loyal peers around Rurik, the elder Arik and Kawi, who are now his power.

Otto's dismissal of Kaihas's wife was obviously an intimacy attempt that had no choice but to make Kaihas moved.

What surprised Kehas even more was that there were still a group of non-combatants in Varanga's army. There are not only women but also children in their group.

Things became very strange, he didn't know what else the Ruth leader had tried. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he was. Sitting in a home that was already a human being, Kaihas was sitting on pins and needles.

After a while, Rurik accepted the call and came to this half-crypted wooden house.

The difference from this indoor quietness is that the outdoor world is already full of hustle and bustle. The Ross warriors eat a lot and have the opportunity to drink a small amount of wine brewed by the locals.

"Dad, is there a big deal?" Rurik asked as he entered the door.

"Come here and sit by my side."

Rurik nodded. With the help of an oil lamp, he glanced at the dumb-faced village chief and saw the man's trembling eyes.

Rurik quickly sat in front of his father, and he suddenly felt that the whole scene was a bit "tribal meeting", as if to discuss the next step.

correct! The Salmon Lord tribe has been conquered, will it continue to expand the results, or go home?

Rurik firmly believes that not only the father, but all the people of the tribe hope to expand the results of the battle.

But the village chief of the conquered tribe is sitting here, what can this person do?

Otto felt that the time was ripe, and he asked Yevlo to translate his words truthfully.

"Kayhass, we Rus plan to attack the gray squirrel tribe. Now my leader has escaped. I need a new leader. You! You must know a lot of information."

After hearing these words, Rurik had determined that after a short rest, the tribal army would take the initiative to attack the gray squirrel tribe. The battle will continue and is inevitable! Rurik clenched his fists, knowing that he had only one choice now-as the leader of the tribal army, to participate in the new operation. Although it is an act of military risk, it is very worthwhile.

Kaihas's mind turned desperately, and in a short speech, he understood the true intentions of the Ross people.

Moreover, when it comes to the tribe of gray squirrels, Kaihas is angry.

"Ross, I know that tribe. We have a lot of hatred with them."

Hatred?

Both Rurik and Otto understood that this is a positive sign that the other party intends to cooperate.

Rurik then lied: "We Rus are the masters of all the northern deer breeders. They are our slaves. They raise deer for us and give us a batch of deer every year, and we give them a guarantee of safety. But that The expedition of the gray squirrel tribe attacked our deer breeders and many people died. They were my servants. We sent troops to rescue a group of people, but the anger could not be calmed. This is the reason why we sent troops. We want to attack the gray squirrel tribe. ."

Rurik's words were deliberately spoken in Gnostic, and he needed to use the translation of Jeflo to tell Kehas the original words.

Most importantly, Rurik is speaking to his father.

A big hand suddenly covered Rurik's golden head, and Otto admired his son in his heart, feeling that he had found an excellent reason for the war.

Otto said loudly: "We organized elite troops to attack the gray squirrel tribe, but the captive of the gray squirrel told us that you are the gray squirrel. Our battle today is very sudden, and maybe it can be avoided. All of this is the gray squirrel. The ghost of the tribe!"

Kaihas was not the leader of the tribe because of his age, he could hear the meaning of the Ross people. There are two meanings here. The first meaning is that war is an avoidable misunderstanding. The Ross people have no absolute malice towards the Salmon Lord tribe. The second meaning is that behind this war, the gray squirrel tribe is provoking it.

The more he thought about it, Kaihas solemnly raised his eyebrows and trusted his own judgment.

Gradually, he showed an expression of grief and indignation, looking at the big-waisted Conqueror of Ross in front of him: "Great Ross. The gray squirrel tribe is the root of all evil! They attack our hunters and destroy our hunting traps. Too many years. We have killed a lot of hunters, we are eager for revenge, but we are not capable. We cannot defeat them. Now we have killed a lot of men, we are already at a very big disadvantage."

"Do you desire revenge?" Otto asked deliberately.

"Yes! I want to dream."

"So, do you want revenge on us? After all, we killed many of you."

Upon hearing this, Kaijas's face suddenly paled.

Otto smiled disdainfully: "Forget it! You are very weak, and we Ross are very strong, and we will only be stronger in the future."

"Yes! I have no guts, we are just your loyal hounds."

Rurik listened to everything, and apparently this meeting himself also had ample right to speak.

Rurik stood up, and confronted Kehas decisively to reveal his identity: "Corvin! I, Rurik! I am the future leader of the Ross people and the one who is blessed by the gods. You say, you will How can we be our loyal hounds?"

"I... we are indeed loyal." Kehas said hurriedly.

"No." Rurik shook his head: "We are going to crusade against the gray squirrel tribe, we are going to avenge. You and my war is a misunderstanding, but you completely failed and became my servants. I hope that you will be my servant because of my advice. consider properly."

"Please... please speak."

"If you can't beat your opponent, join them."

"This..." Kejas has moved: "My little master, you mean, let me send people to participate in the new battle? Let our men fight for you?"

Rurik smiled and nodded: "Not so~www.novelhall.com~ The men of your tribe will take up arms again, and we will form an army. Your men will participate in a new battle under my command. . Listen, your people are mine. You will be rewarded by your master for your loyalty."

Otto felt that his son's words were very domineering. Look at that Kaijas's expression, that was a rigid old face, and now he clearly had the urge to smile.

Otto asked in a vigorous baritone: "I am the leader of the Ross people, and my tribe has 10,000 people! This time I organized three hundred elites to participate in the battle. Now you give me a clear answer. Do you want to join? Is our army going to fight against the gray squirrels?"

Kaihas knew that he had no choice, and based on the status quo, not only was the request made by the Rus acceptable, but if the Rus participated in the war, he would surely defeat the nasty gray squirrel tribe.

"Great Ross, all men in our tribe who can use weapons will fight for you. Even some women, if you want, they can take up weapons and fight for you."

Otto laughed with joy: "Woman? Forget it! I only want men, such as your nasty archers. You are very smart. Now, tell us the status of the gray squirrel tribe."
