Visby has been a place of worship for the people of Gotland for generations, and the huge settlements have been continuously expanded around their stone ship altars.
They used stones to build a stable building called Thing, the so-called chamber.
Only when facing a major event, all the wealthy families on the island will send the chief patriarch to Thing to discuss matters.
A capable Ross army landed on the island and stabbed the coastal defense line in the north of the island that the brothers had painstakingly managed. Although not many families feel that this passive method of covering the earth wall is very useful, it was run by the families in Baisha Port. The Baisha Port in the north has fallen, and the people who escaped are simply spreading horror rumors-the Rus burned the city and killed everyone.
These things are worthy of belief. Indeed, a group of refugees from the north of the island arrived in Visby by boat, plus the refugees who fled from land, they all told the same thing.
They were still fighting for normality, and the mounds near Visby flashed blood-red light.
Arik took the brothers to sleep on the mound, and the early morning birdsong awakened these sleepy people.
When the early morning mist cleared, the Ross soldiers bathed in the holy light of the rising sun and clearly saw the vast sea and huge settlements.
Arik witnessed all this by relying on the big tree, and now he is no longer shocked.
"Brothers, get up! Come and see the Gotland's lair."
The soldiers gathered one after another, looking at Visby and couldn't help but sigh.
"Boss, the leader is going to take us down here, and then burn it down? Things are a little difficult."
"Yes, maybe the enemy can assemble more fighters than us. We have to fight them decisively, I'm afraid we won't be able to win soon."
Rose looting the team burned all the way, at this moment one after another worried and feared the huge scale of Visby. After all, there were only fifty of them, and many people were really afraid of crazy Arik and asked the brothers to follow him down the mountain. That was not bravery, but simple recklessness. No matter how weak the enemy is, with only fifty people fighting to exhaustion, they still have to be besieged to death by the enemy.
Suddenly, someone saw the anomaly under the mound and pointed and shouted: "Boss, look, there are a bunch of people there who are moving towards us?!"
Arik was instinctively wary when he heard it, and he bent over slightly, squinting his eyes to pay attention to the details of the distant world.
The subordinates were right, and after just a bit of identification, everyone saw armed men approaching this hill full of pine trees.
Those guys are from Visby. They wear helmets and bucklers on them.
They are not farmers or shepherds, they are real warriors!
However, in Arik's eyes, this was a group of fats delivered to the door. Thinking of this, his eyes showed murderous intent, and his laughter became more and more unrestrained.
"Haha, brothers, you are tired of killing mortals! Come on, let's try another vote. We intercept these idiots."
No one refused at this moment. The brothers hope to fight with the enemy's soldiers in the sun, defeat the powerful enemy and take away the weapons and money from the corpse, and gain the glory of a man in the fight.
Regardless of whether Arik accepts it or not, the way of fighting has been greatly changed due to more powerful long-range weapons such as crossbows.
If you don't use a good weapon, that's a complete idiot. Using a crossbow to shoot the enemy accurately has nothing to do with honor. What are you talking about while fighting? A wise warrior wants to save his own life, and more importantly, to get all the wealth, the enemy's woman, and the honor of the warrior. They all want it.
At present, this scout of Ross controls an excellent geography, and it is really appropriate to wait for work to fight an ambush.
Arik organized his subordinates. Thirty people in the dusty robes with the word looting farmer were lying on the ground with swords and shields in their hands. Under the burqa is the blue-and-white robes representing Rose. When the so-called fight begins, they will reveal their identities.
This is how the soldiers are, and they must fight upright. No matter how stupid the Gotland people are, they also know the signs of the Ross people, show the pattern of the robe, and save the link of self-reporting their homes, which can be understood by the four enemies.
And the other twenty fighters, holding their wound crossbows, also lay in ambush on the ground.
They naturally put their cheeks on the wooden support, staring at the rear sight of the carbon steel reed (the arrow is slightly stuck to prevent it from falling), and the front sight erected at the forefront, achieving a three-point line.
They just held their crossbows in a prone position with their rifles. The steel-armed crossbow is really a magic weapon to kill the enemy on certain occasions. Arik has long realized the wonderful use of weapons, and now he takes the Gotland knife.
Nearly two hundred Gotland explorers, led by an veteran soldier named Lavin, at Thing's request, they climbed over the mound to see the situation in the bridge village, and they wanted to discover the secret of the red light last night.
There are armed Bridge Village villagers in this team, and they spread the terrible news of "Russ entering the village" in Visby. As the people gathered in Visby already knew the news of the Russ landing and deriving the destruction, the new news did not shock everyone.
The men completed their armed forces in an instant. As long as the families reached a unified opinion in Thing's stone house, such as giving orders to fight, the men could complete the army assembly in an instant.
Lavin’s 200 fighters are just a group of investigators. Most of them are capable fighters. Many men have experience of fighting at sea, or have tried to assassinate whales with a harpoon.
There are also Danes from Jutland. When they were young, they rowed to the nearby Obadrites (Slavic Wender tribe) to rob the territory. They have sufficient experience in hacking people. Now they are old and still fighting spirits. Highly serving as a mercenary for the merchant family in Visby.
Only more than fifty farmers and shepherds in Qiao Village are in relatively bad condition. After all, they do not live by betraying force, they are just ordinary people. This time the men in the entire bridge village took up their weapons and wanted to return to the village to see the situation. People hoped that nothing would happen.
LaVine knew nothing about the dangers ahead, and people travelling with him didn't think they would encounter any danger near Visby.
They swaggered and climbed the soothing mound, and the last **** was in front of them.
With a pair of eyes hiding in the withered grass under the tree, the Ross people did not deliberately disguise. They can only say that the inherent color of the flax used to make burlap is the typical "autumn color".
It is extremely difficult for people with sharp eyes to see the hidden enemy suddenly. Moreover, Lavin's sense of vigilance in this job has been worn out by more than half of his non-stop walking.
Arik laughed in his heart, and he was very serious on the face. The crossbowmen were lying beside him, and the sword and shieldmen suddenly jumped out to fight after watching his commands. Climbing the mound in chaos is not advisable. Lavin takes his people along a small path that climbs the mound. This is a shortcut, and it has also become a dangerous place.
"It's now, brothers, shoot." Arik ordered in a low voice.
In an instant, twenty arrows flew in with the whizzing sound of whirl feathers, and concentrated on hitting LaVine's column.
For the convenience of movement, these Gotland Pathfinders did not wear chain armor. They all wore hardened cowhide armor and leather helmets inlaid with iron skin. In addition, the most useful defensive device was a round shield with a copper leather hoop. .
However, these defensive measures are of limited use, not to mention they are unprepared.
Those who control the crossbow are all veterans, and Arik tunes the elite fighters he likes to use. Twenty shooters have been able to accurately shoot Gotland fishermen at sea, and they are now doing something familiar.
The brothers have a tacit understanding with each other, basically everyone is shooting their own targets, and there is limited overlap with each other.
In the first round of shooting, as many as fifteen enemies fell to the ground with arrows.
In the ambush of only fifty meters, the Gotlandians did not even see the enemy, but listened to the whistling sound in their ears, followed by the wailing of the fallen.
A very capable warrior, who was hit by arrows in the chest and waist, lost his fighting ability on the spot, and was destined to die quickly in constant blood loss.
"Ah! It's the Ross people! It's them!" LaVine, he thought of the horror of being a **** arrow by the Ross people at sea.
Under the command of LaVine, the panicked Gotland hurriedly removed their round shields, and then lined up in a circle. A pair of eyes looked at everything around him, trying to find the attacker.
Just as they were in confusion, the squatting crossbowmen turned around and lay down on their backs, with their feet on their steel arms, leather-gloved hands with strong arms and thighs, working together to pull the bowstring soaked in seal oil to the trigger. Out. This is a violent winding behavior that consumes physical strength. A strong fighter can do it five or six times at most, and he has to rely on a winch to wind.
The second round of arrows is coming!
The sharp clusters of quenched rockets have a very good armor-breaking ability. The shields of the Gotland have limited defensive power. The clusters of arrows pierce them, then penetrate the human leather armor, and finally plunge into the flesh and blood.
The damage caused by this round of shooting is far inferior to that of the first round. Warriors with enemies hit the arrows, and they can still stand with axes and short spears with their teeth clenched.
It was also in this round of shooting that the position of the Ross was exposed.
LaVine, who was almost smashed by the arrows, raised his iron sword and shouted: "It's the grass under the tree in front. Brothers, follow me to kill this group of Ross people."
In an instant, the Gotlanders ended their panic, they dispersed and began to attack.
Five Rose shooters who moved quickly have already put their bowstrings on for the third time. After shooting casually, they drew out their steel swords one after another.
There is no need to cover up.
Arik appeared suddenly, not shouting any Demacia's strange slogans. He stuck his swords on the ground, grabbed the cap of the robe with his right hand, and tore off this layer of cloth directly, revealing his white cloth gown and the blue stripes of X staggered on his chest.
The boss is like this, and the Rus soldiers show up one after another.
When they appeared condescendingly, the Gotlanders who had frightened the attackers jumped, and they couldn't help being stunned.
The Ross people lifted the burqa one after another, even if they have not many troops, they have the aura of complete uniformity, which really worries their opponents.
The Ross people present are all veterans, and they are actually about the same age as Arik, and they have rich combat experience.
Arik seemed to have eaten poisonous mushrooms and turned into a berserker. He gasped and looked like wolves. The commander seemed to be a large group of evil wolves.
Without any nonsense, he directly took the lead in the charge with his double swords. What's more terrifying is that today Arik even threw his shield, and he led the team into the melee with only a lightweight leather armor.
This is what he hopes, and it is also what the Rus fighters are willing to.
The archer dropped the crossbow and instantly became a sword and shield player. Because the enemy and us are too close, the organization of the shield wall is a waste of fighters, and the two sides quickly fell into a melee.
"Kill! The warriors who killed the enemy, use their blood to pay homage to Odin!" Arik shouted.
LaVine, the veteran of Gotland is not to be outdone. "Brothers, it's time for these Ross people to pay their lives, kill me!"
After the arrow, there is a hand-to-hand combat, and the two sides in the melee will never judge the wrong opponent. The robe of the Ross people is too obvious.
Arik's double swords slashed an enemy's arm cleanly, then stabbed him for his life.
He stabbed another person, and before pulling out the sword, the enemy rolled his eyes and knelt at his feet.
However, a short spear thrown by a Gotlander almost leaped against Arik's face, almost causing a cut, but accidentally hit the arm of another Ross fighter.
The angry Arik was running wildly, and his two swords slammed into the proud Gotland who threw the spear. The martial arts he has trained have created this moment of beheading Wushuang.
"Hey! The warrior with double swords, fight with me!" Lavin cursed with a face of blood holding up his sword.
"You?!" Arik vigorously wiped the blood sacrifice on his face, the blood sacrifice with his arms full of muscle texture and throwing off his swords. "Who are you? A humble bug?"
"I am LaVine, LaVine who is loyal to the Bliss Noisy family, and the man destined to behead your head!"
"You?" Arik was greatly enraged, "I am Arik of Ross, the brave who commanded the team to destroy your fishing boat, and also the man you revealed. You stupid groundhog, I will kill you today. Head!"
After all, Arik rushed up.
The mounds have been fighting for a while, and the Ruths have few troops. They fought an ambush and greatly dampened the spirit of the Gotland people who had traveled a long distance. What's more, what do the armed villagers in Bridge Village talk about brave?
The Ross people have quietly gained the upper hand in the melee, even if some of them died.
Arik hadn't cared so much anymore. He was an enraged bison, and he used his sword to attack the warrior Raven with brute force.
With such a shocking momentum, LaVine regretted his proposal of a duel on the spot.
This is a duel! Based on tradition, the scuffled people just gave up space spontaneously.
They were both Vikings, and they did not form a shield wall to fight against each other at the moment. They are more like small-scale heads-ups between dozens of pairs, which seems to be more glorious.
This is a battle between two commanders, Arik with two swords fights against Lavin who is holding a sword and shield. Neither of them wore iron chain mail, so any negligence was fatal.
Arik was almost undefended, and seemed to be full of flaws.
However, Arik, who personally hacked and killed as many as a hundred people, immediately discovered the weakness of his opponent with his full combat experience. He picked up Raven's shield with his steel sword, turned slightly, and hit the opponent's waist with his father's sword. This is the first round where the winner will be divided, and the duel of the elite is this moment where the winner will be divided.
LaVine tilted his body in pain, and Arik cut off his sword's arm without hesitation.
Holding two swords in his hand is like big scissors. Arik easily cut off LaVine's head, then raised this hideous head high, and shouted at the melee Gotland: "This is your bravest." Man? Now he is dead!"
At this point, the morale of the Gotland Pathfinder has completely collapsed!
The leader has a different head and looks at how many corpses are lying on the ground. Even if there are also Ruths who have fallen dead, are they not the Gotlanders who die the most?
The farmer in the bridge village killed many people, the bravest young man who yelled for revenge. They ended their very short career as a warrior for their bravery.
The men in Bridge Village fled, and the rest of Gotland escaped from the battle one after another.
The Ross people also launched a counter-charge to cut down a few people, but Arik ordered them to stop.
"Boss, we can rush over and hack them all to death!"
Panting, Arik threw the head of LaVine: "Let the cowards go out! Now we already know exactly what the Gotland people are, just like you guys still see! They are all idiots. "
Looking at the back of the fugitive with blood-stained faces, the Ross people stood among the corpses in the mound, ushering in a victory.
"Let's stop here." Arik ordered, "Assassinate the dying enemy and take our people away!"
The dying Ross warrior asked Arik to reward him with a happy, helpless Arik with a sword to complete it.
In the end, the 15 corpses of their own people who were actually confined by the Ross people~www.novelhall.com~ Such a loss made Arik, who had calmed down, shouted a loss.
However, the Gotlanders are almost a hundred people lying down this time. What kind of a disadvantage does the Ross people have?
Wait a minute! Arik looted at sea, and his subordinates rarely suffered losses. Today's ambush can be described as the most terrible one-day loss in recent years. The brothers of the fighters were all capable fighters, and now they died for the glory of the Ross people.
Let the enemy's body stay here to feed the vultures!
The body of the Ruth was wrapped in burlap and dragged away from the battlefield by the soldiers. Having figured out the enemy's situation, Arik felt that he should also leave. He estimated that he would be able to encounter the large forces soon after leaving, so the decisive battle would be a matter of the next few days. A larger-scale battle is waiting for you to become a hero on the battlefield!
"Brothers, let's go! Take our brothers, take them to that village, and let their souls go to Valhalla."
Arik, he piled up branches and firewood at the burning house in Bridge Village, washed the body of the war dead with stream water, and burned it to ashes according to the Russ battlefield funeral ritual. Before this event is completed, he and the surviving soldiers will watch the physical bodies of their comrades in arms, and their souls will soar up to the temple with the smoke and dust.

Wait a minute! Arik looted at sea, and his subordinates rarely suffered losses. Today's ambush can be described as the most terrible one-day loss in recent years. The brothers of the fighters were all capable fighters, and now they died for the glory of the Ross people.
Let the enemy's body stay here to feed the vultures!
The body of the Ruth was wrapped in burlap and dragged away from the battlefield by the soldiers. Having figured out the enemy's situation, Arik felt that he should also leave. He estimated that he would be able to encounter the large forces soon after leaving, so the decisive battle would be a matter of the next few days. A larger-scale battle is waiting for you to become a hero on the battlefield!
"Brothers, let's go! Take our brothers, take them to that village, and let their souls go to Valhalla."
Arik, he piled up branches and firewood at the burning house in Bridge Village, washed the body of the war dead with stream water, and burned it to ashes according to the Russ battlefield funeral ritual. Before this event is completed, he and the surviving soldiers will watch the physical bodies of their comrades in arms, and their souls will soar up to the temple with the smoke and dust.
Visby has been a place of worship for the people of Gotland for generations, and the huge settlements have been continuously expanded around their stone ship altars.They used stones to build a stable building called Thing, the so-called chamber.Only when facing a major event, all the wealthy families on the island will send the chief patriarch to Thing to discuss matters.A capable Ross army landed on the island and stabbed the coastal defense line in the north of the island that the brothers had painstakingly managed. Although not many families feel that this passive method of covering the earth wall is very useful, it was run by the families in Baisha Port. The Baisha Port in the north has fallen, and the people who escaped are simply spreading horror rumors-the Rus burned the city and killed everyone.These things are worthy of belief. Indeed, a group of refugees from the north of the island arrived in Visby by boat, plus the refugees who fled from land, they all told the same thing.They were still fighting for normality, and the mounds near Visby flashed blood-red light.Arik took the brothers to sleep on the mound, and the early morning birdsong awakened these sleepy people.When the early morning mist cleared, the Ross soldiers bathed in the holy light of the rising sun and clearly saw the vast sea and huge settlements.Arik witnessed all this by relying on the big tree, and now he is no longer shocked."Brothers, get up! Come and see the Gotland's lair."The soldiers gathered one after another, looking at Visby and couldn't help but sigh."Boss, the leader is going to take us down here, and then burn it down? Things are a little difficult.""Yes, maybe the enemy can assemble more fighters than us. We have to fight them decisively, I'm afraid we won't be able to win soon."Rose looting the team burned all the way, at this moment one after another worried and feared the huge scale of Visby. After all, there were only fifty of them, and many people were really afraid of crazy Arik and asked the brothers to follow him down the mountain. That was not bravery, but simple recklessness. No matter how weak the enemy is, with only fifty people fighting to exhaustion, they still have to be besieged to death by the enemy.Suddenly, someone saw the anomaly under the mound and pointed and shouted: "Boss, look, there are a bunch of people there who are moving towards us?!"Arik was instinctively wary when he heard it, and he bent over slightly, squinting his eyes to pay attention to the details of the distant world.The subordinates were right, and after just a bit of identification, everyone saw armed men approaching this hill full of pine trees.Those guys are from Visby. They wear helmets and bucklers on them.They are not farmers or shepherds, they are real warriors!However, in Arik's eyes, this was a group of fats delivered to the door. Thinking of this, his eyes showed murderous intent, and his laughter became more and more unrestrained."Haha, brothers, you are tired of killing mortals! Come on, let's try another vote. We intercept these idiots."No one refused at this moment. The brothers hope to fight with the enemy's soldiers in the sun, defeat the powerful enemy and take away the weapons and money from the corpse, and gain the glory of a man in the fight.Regardless of whether Arik accepts it or not, the way of fighting has been greatly changed due to more powerful long-range weapons such as crossbows.If you don't use a good weapon, that's a complete idiot. Using a crossbow to shoot the enemy accurately has nothing to do with honor. What are you talking about while fighting? A wise warrior wants to save his own life, and more importantly, to get all the wealth, the enemy's woman, and the honor of the warrior. They all want it.At present, this scout of Ross controls an excellent geography, and it is really appropriate to wait for work to fight an ambush.Arik organized his subordinates. Thirty people in the dusty robes with the word looting farmer were lying on the ground with swords and shields in their hands. Under the burqa is the blue-and-white robes representing Rose. When the so-called fight begins, they will reveal their identities.This is how the soldiers are, and they must fight upright. No matter how stupid the Gotland people are, they also know the signs of the Ross people, show the pattern of the robe, and save the link of self-reporting their homes, which can be understood by the four enemies.And the other twenty fighters, holding their wound crossbows, also lay in ambush on the ground.They naturally put their cheeks on the wooden support, staring at the rear sight of the carbon steel reed the arrow is slightly stuck to prevent it from falling, and the front sight erected at the forefront, achieving a three-point line.They just held their crossbows in a prone position with their rifles. The steel-armed crossbow is really a magic weapon to kill the enemy on certain occasions. Arik has long realized the wonderful use of weapons, and now he takes the Gotland knife.Nearly two hundred Gotland explorers, led by an veteran soldier named Lavin, at Thing's request, they climbed over the mound to see the situation in the bridge village, and they wanted to discover the secret of the red light last night.There are armed Bridge Village villagers in this team, and they spread the terrible news of "Russ entering the village" in Visby. As the people gathered in Visby already knew the news of the Russ landing and deriving the destruction, the new news did not shock everyone.The men completed their armed forces in an instant. As long as the families reached a unified opinion in Thing's stone house, such as giving orders to fight, the men could complete the army assembly in an instant.Lavin's 200 fighters are just a group of investigators. Most of them are capable fighters. Many men have experience of fighting at sea, or have tried to assassinate whales with a harpoon.There are also Danes from Jutland. When they were young, they rowed to the nearby Obadrites Slavic Wender tribe to rob the territory. They have sufficient experience in hacking people. Now they are old and still fighting spirits. Highly serving as a mercenary for the merchant family in Visby.Only more than fifty farmers and shepherds in Qiao Village are in relatively bad condition. After all, they do not live by betraying force, they are just ordinary people. This time the men in the entire bridge village took up their weapons and wanted to return to the village to see the situation. People hoped that nothing would happen.LaVine knew nothing about the dangers ahead, and people travelling with him didn't think they would encounter any danger near Visby.They swaggered and climbed the soothing mound, and the last **** was in front of them.With a pair of eyes hiding in the withered grass under the tree, the Ross people did not deliberately disguise. They can only say that the inherent color of the flax used to make burlap is the typical "autumn color".It is extremely difficult for people with sharp eyes to see the hidden enemy suddenly. Moreover, Lavin's sense of vigilance in this job has been worn out by more than half of his non-stop walking.Arik laughed in his heart, and he was very serious on the face. The crossbowmen were lying beside him, and the sword and shieldmen suddenly jumped out to fight after watching his commands. Climbing the mound in chaos is not advisable. Lavin takes his people along a small path that climbs the mound. This is a shortcut, and it has also become a dangerous place."It's now, brothers, shoot." Arik ordered in a low voice.In an instant, twenty arrows flew in with the whizzing sound of whirl feathers, and concentrated on hitting LaVine's column.For the convenience of movement, these Gotland Pathfinders did not wear chain armor. They all wore hardened cowhide armor and leather helmets inlaid with iron skin. In addition, the most useful defensive device was a round shield with a copper leather hoop. .However, these defensive measures are of limited use, not to mention they are unprepared.Those who control the crossbow are all veterans, and Arik tunes the elite fighters he likes to use. Twenty shooters have been able to accurately shoot Gotland fishermen at sea, and they are now doing something familiar.The brothers have a tacit understanding with each other, basically everyone is shooting their own targets, and there is limited overlap with each other.In the first round of shooting, as many as fifteen enemies fell to the ground with arrows.In the ambush of only fifty meters, the Gotlandians did not even see the enemy, but listened to the whistling sound in their ears, followed by the wailing of the fallen.A very capable warrior, who was hit by arrows in the chest and waist, lost his fighting ability on the spot, and was destined to die quickly in constant blood loss."Ah! It's the Ross people! It's them!" LaVine, he thought of the horror of being a **** arrow by the Ross people at sea.Under the command of LaVine, the panicked Gotland hurriedly removed their round shields, and then lined up in a circle. A pair of eyes looked at everything around him, trying to find the attacker.Just as they were in confusion, the squatting crossbowmen turned around and lay down on their backs, with their feet on their steel arms, leather-gloved hands with strong arms and thighs, working together to pull the bowstring soaked in seal oil to the trigger. Out. This is a violent winding behavior that consumes physical strength. A strong fighter can do it five or six times at most, and he has to rely on a winch to wind.The second round of arrows is coming!The sharp clusters of quenched rockets have a very good armor-breaking ability. The shields of the Gotland have limited defensive power. The clusters of arrows pierce them, then penetrate the human leather armor, and finally plunge into the flesh and blood.The damage caused by this round of shooting is far inferior to that of the first round. Warriors with enemies hit the arrows, and they can still stand with axes and short spears with their teeth clenched.It was also in this round of shooting that the position of the Ross was exposed.LaVine, who was almost smashed by the arrows, raised his iron sword and shouted: "It's the grass under the tree in front. Brothers, follow me to kill this group of Ross people."In an instant, the Gotlanders ended their panic, they dispersed and began to attack.Five Rose shooters who moved quickly have already put their bowstrings on for the third time. After shooting casually, they drew out their steel swords one after another.There is no need to cover up.Arik appeared suddenly, not shouting any Demacia's strange slogans. He stuck his swords on the ground, grabbed the cap of the robe with his right hand, and tore off this layer of cloth directly, revealing his white cloth gown and the blue stripes of X staggered on his chest.The boss is like this, and the Rus soldiers show up one after another.When they appeared condescendingly, the Gotlanders who had frightened the attackers jumped, and they couldn't help being stunned.The Ross people lifted the burqa one after another, even if they have not many troops, they have the aura of complete uniformity, which really worries their opponents.The Ross people present are all veterans, and they are actually about the same age as Arik, and they have rich combat experience.Arik seemed to have eaten poisonous mushrooms and turned into a berserker. He gasped and looked like wolves. The commander seemed to be a large group of evil wolves.Without any nonsense, he directly took the lead in the charge with his double swords. What's more terrifying is that today Arik even threw his shield, and he led the team into the melee with only a lightweight leather armor.This is what he hopes, and it is also what the Rus fighters are willing to.The archer dropped the crossbow and instantly became a sword and shield player. Because the enemy and us are too close, the organization of the shield wall is a waste of fighters, and the two sides quickly fell into a melee."Kill! The warriors who killed the enemy, use their blood to pay homage to Odin!" Arik shouted.LaVine, the veteran of Gotland is not to be outdone. "Brothers, it's time for these Ross people to pay their lives, kill me!"After the arrow, there is a hand-to-hand combat, and the two sides in the melee will never judge the wrong opponent. The robe of the Ross people is too obvious.Arik's double swords slashed an enemy's arm cleanly, then stabbed him for his life.He stabbed another person, and before pulling out the sword, the enemy rolled his eyes and knelt at his feet.However, a short spear thrown by a Gotlander almost leaped against Arik's face, almost causing a cut, but accidentally hit the arm of another Ross fighter.The angry Arik was running wildly, and his two swords slammed into the proud Gotland who threw the spear. The martial arts he has trained have created this moment of beheading Wushuang."Hey! The warrior with double swords, fight with me!" Lavin cursed with a face of blood holding up his sword."You?!" Arik vigorously wiped the blood sacrifice on his face, the blood sacrifice with his arms full of muscle texture and throwing off his swords. "Who are you? A humble bug?""I am LaVine, LaVine who is loyal to the Bliss Noisy family, and the man destined to behead your head!""You?" Arik was greatly enraged, "I am Arik of Ross, the brave who commanded the team to destroy your fishing boat, and also the man you revealed. You stupid groundhog, I will kill you today. Head!"After all, Arik rushed up.The mounds have been fighting for a while, and the Ruths have few troops. They fought an ambush and greatly dampened the spirit of the Gotland people who had traveled a long distance. What's more, what do the armed villagers in Bridge Village talk about brave?The Ross people have quietly gained the upper hand in the melee, even if some of them died.Arik hadn't cared so much anymore. He was an enraged bison, and he used his sword to attack the warrior Raven with brute force.With such a shocking momentum, LaVine regretted his proposal of a duel on the spot.This is a duel! Based on tradition, the scuffled people just gave up space spontaneously.They were both Vikings, and they did not form a shield wall to fight against each other at the moment. They are more like small-scale heads-ups between dozens of pairs, which seems to be more glorious.This is a battle between two commanders, Arik with two swords fights against Lavin who is holding a sword and shield. Neither of them wore iron chain mail, so any negligence was fatal.Arik was almost undefended, and seemed to be full of flaws.However, Arik, who personally hacked and killed as many as a hundred people, immediately discovered the weakness of his opponent with his full combat experience. He picked up Raven's shield with his steel sword, turned slightly, and hit the opponent's waist with his father's sword. This is the first round where the winner will be divided, and the duel of the elite is this moment where the winner will be divided.LaVine tilted his body in pain, and Arik cut off his sword's arm without hesitation.Holding two swords in his hand is like big scissors. Arik easily cut off LaVine's head, then raised this hideous head high, and shouted at the melee Gotland: "This is your bravest." Man? Now he is dead!"At this point, the morale of the Gotland Pathfinder has completely collapsed!The leader has a different head and looks at how many corpses are lying on the ground. Even if there are also Ruths who have fallen dead, are they not the Gotlanders who die the most?The farmer in the bridge village killed many people, the bravest young man who yelled for revenge. They ended their very short career as a warrior for their bravery.The men in Bridge Village fled, and the rest of Gotland escaped from the battle one after another.The Ross people also launched a counter-charge to cut down a few people, but Arik ordered them to stop."Boss, we can rush over and hack them all to death!"Panting, Arik threw the head of LaVine: "Let the cowards go out! Now we already know exactly what the Gotland people are, just like you guys still see! They are all idiots. "Looking at the back of the fugitive with blood-stained faces, the Ross people stood among the corpses in the mound, ushering in a victory."Let's stop here." Arik ordered, "Assassinate the dying enemy and take our people away!"The dying Ross warrior asked Arik to reward him with a happy, helpless Arik with a sword to complete it.In the end, the 15 corpses of their own people who were actually confined by the Ross people~www.novelhall.com~ Such a loss made Arik, who had calmed down, shouted a loss.However, the Gotlanders are almost a hundred people lying down this time. What kind of a disadvantage does the Ross people have?Wait a minute! Arik looted at sea, and his subordinates rarely suffered losses.
