Arik evacuated with great resentment, seeing that the enemy hadn't chased after him, and the anger was even deeper.

He ran to the place where his brothers left the crossbow and ordered his surviving brother: "If you can't take it, cut off the bow arm."

They did not find all the crossbows. After taking away ten of them, the rest were chopped down by the axe, and the important carbon steel bow arms and crossbow parts were taken away.

With the taunts of the Gotlanders on their backs, they followed the stream to the east.

Siegfast's soldiers surrounded the battlefield and moved a corpse away while checking the undead.

Those who were seriously wounded on their own side were given the knife to death, and the undead Ross soldiers became treasures.

The Ross wounded soldier was dying with blood, and the Gotland warriors were so jealous that they didn't dare to approach rashly when they thought that the ruthless group was still hacking and killing them.

A Rose warrior tried to stand up again with his sword in both hands. Gotland was horrified to see the person pull out the arrow on his body, a blood spurted out, and the person fell down like a big tree.

Only then did the Gotland warriors approach boldly.

Siegfast was holding the sword, and contemptuously accused his men, "We obviously won, are you so timid?"

He continued to move forward, and without hesitation he slammed the sword into the Ross warrior who had just died. "Look, I killed him."

Chief Guard Glend didn't want to say anything, and the gold master was not credited for bullying a corpse.

He took the Danish mercenaries and screened out the corpses of the Ross people one by one. This job is very simple, just because the opponents wear exactly the same under the burqa!

"You guys! Not ordinary pirates!" For a moment, Grund felt that he had provoke an unprovoking existence, and the idea of ​​leaving was germinated.

Gotland suffered a catastrophe, but the islanders are not Danish fellows. Their relatives and friends are in the western world. They are fighting for money now, and it has nothing to do with glory. He thought that he couldn't move in his old age, so he returned to his hometown with a commission to live a good life.

Even if Harken, who became king on his own, recruited a huge army, it is speculated from this encounter that the king's chances of winning are not great.

The Ross people even achieved the same clothes. They must have been planning this war for a long time!

A severely wounded Ross fighter was pulled to Grund by a rope.

"Boss, there is a living one. If it is chopped, it is still dedicated to the gold master."

A warrior was dragged like a dead dog, and Grund glanced down, "Untie the rope, the warrior should not be humiliated. I'll call that man."

It was really boring to assassinate an enemy's corpse. Seeing the pile of corpses piled up on his side, Siegfast was so angry that his teeth hurt.

The hand-down newspaper finally found a living one, and he walked happily, turning his twisting pace as if he had killed a piece of enemy himself.

"Where's that damned Ross man? I'm here to chop him."

The gold master came with a stern face, and Grund hurriedly said, "At least I ask about the situation of the Ross people and it will not be too late to kill."

"Yes, that's what I meant."

The only wounded Ross soldier who was hit by multiple arrows realized that he was about to die, his mouth was bleeding continuously, and his blue eyes became blood red. He grumbled hard, all uttering words called curse.

The Danish mercenaries present just stood on the sidelines and waited until the gold master arrived.

A sword was thrust into the wounded soldier's ear, and Siegfast fell to his knees, surprised that the man did not blink his eyes.

"This guy is dead?"

Suddenly, his hollow eyes narrowed, and the wounded soldier suddenly sprayed Siegfast blood on his face and laughed.

"The last bravery?" Siegfast wiped off the blood and yelled, "Rose, your leader Arik, that **** is a coward now. He was afraid of death in battle and abandoned you and ran away!"

The wounded soldier continued to smile, barely squeezing out, "Aric, he is not a leader, nor a coward. He is a warrior. And you... are all stupid."

"Warrior? He is clearly a coward. What else are you talking about? He is not your leader? Tell you everything."

The Ross wounded knows that since the army has landed on the island, it is completely meaningless to keep it secret. Seeing that this group of guys who fight with more and less are proud of themselves, this round-skinned person in front of them is not a warrior. Obviously, this person is the true commander of this Gotland army.

The wounded soldier raised his spirits: "Our... Duke is Otto! Our true leader is Rurik. Rurik, blessed by Odin. God is on our side."

"Rurik?" The name Siegfast heard back the first time. This name is indeed very rare in the Nordic world. "Who is this? I haven't heard of it, and it doesn't seem to be a person."

The wounded soldier took Siegfast's words as humiliation, and said angrily, "He is the one who took your life! The one who conquered your island."

"Absurd! Come on, how many people did you send?"

The wounded chuckled again, "Three thousand soldiers, we are well-equipped and well-fed, and we are going to fight you! Our army is marching, and the target is yours...Visby."

Three thousand people? Siegfast was only taken aback. He could not yet imagine the gathering of troops of this magnitude.

Danes like Grund have seen big scenes in their hometown!

For example, the lord king Hafgen organized thousands of people to fight against the Svealans in the north and won. Of course, the Gotlanders also sent fifteen hundred people to fight.

Grund was in the army that year, and the army captured and destroyed the Ostala tribe. But the Ross tribe, they did not participate in the war back then, only the memory of fighting against each other.

Grund’s and Siegfast’s memories of the past are different. Siegfast has put all his thoughts on the wool trade. It does not matter if the settlements in the south of the island are destroyed, with the Danish port of Hezeby and the nearby Sirius port. The attack on the fur transportation line of China is the major event.

"Damn it. Three hundred Rosses are a tricky problem. Now they have three thousand!" Grund estimated that he would defeat such an army. This is not an achievement that the Gotlanders themselves can accomplish.

Siegfast couldn't believe it: "Is this reasonable? There are so many people in the Ross, this guy is lying."

Grund shook his head solemnly, "I don't think a dying person will lie."

"He's going to die?" Siegfast tried to instigate the wounded. "Listen, Ross, you are a brave man compared to the coward Arik. Surrender now, and I will find a way to save you and help me in the future. work."

"There is a greater shame than this... shame? Idiot, I'm dead! Kill me, hurry up!"

"You!" Siegfast gritted his teeth. "You don't appreciate it. You think I killed you, but I don't! You have killed so many people. Do you want to die simply? You dream."

The viciousness of the Ross people is not covered, the Gotland people hate them deeply. Nearly a hundred corpses of the Gotland Army were confined, and the corpses would be covered with mud to serve as a large cup.

Compared to the Russ or other Vikings, the Gotland islanders are more inclined to bury the dead, so some of the bumpy mounds on the island are actually tombs. The reason is that this funeral culture was also learned from the Danish Vikings in Jutland.

The wounded Ross soldier was cut off with a dagger by the angry and arrogant Gotland warrior, and the sharp blade was still slowly cutting the skin of the flag.

Siegfast half-kneeled in front of the wounded soldier, staring at the strained and patient face. His face was arrogant and ferocious, and he obviously appreciated the pain of the other party. "Ross, I killed so many people, and still want to die quickly? I will kill you slowly. You can't yell, you just need to scream in pain, your soul can't go to Valhalla."

They are torturing a dying warrior. Look at those stupid Gotland natives. In the previous battle, these guys deliberately mingled at the back of the team and did not join the fiercest battle. Now these real cowards are actually there. Bullying the dead warrior.

Grund really couldn't stand it, and his men were also discussing the immorality of the sponsor. Holding the sword, he silently approached the gold master, stabbed the injured person in the face in front of him, and twisted it to end everything.

"You! Grund what are you doing?" Siegfast stood up directly with anger.

"Enough. Your lord."

"Not enough! You broke my good show."

"You..." Glenn can't stand it anymore now, "Siegerfast! You are a simple idiot. What is the difference between what you are doing now and the butcher Arik? You are not a fighter at all. ."

"How dare you question me? Beware that I won't give you money."

Grund's guys came one after another, they all stood in the position of their eldest brother, as for this gold master, forget it.

"What? You are all against me?!" Siegfast felt inexplicably horrified.

"No. You are not really a fighter. You abuse a warrior for fun, who would like it? Maybe Rocky would like it, but Odin would never. The biggest difference between us and that butcher is that we have a bottom line. You challenge our fighters. The bottom line, what dirty money is, we would rather find a new benefactor. I think the Danes in Visby know what you are doing, and many people will leave."

Danish mercenaries still have a great effect, and this Grund is also a master at hacking.

Siegfast did not understand the thoughts of their mercenaries. He was a businessman himself, and now he had no choice but to give up.

Soon, people searching the battlefield found some strange weapons. They instinctively realized that it was a certain kind of bow. After all, some arrows were scattered around it.

Gotland knew this **** arrow, the fishermen on the sea had been poisoned by it, and just now a brother was shot and killed.

Three strange weapons were presented to Siegfast.

The sensitive Danish mercenaries all guessed the usefulness of this weapon.

"Ah! This is the truth!" Siegfast was taken aback, and then yelled in surprise, "Haha, the mysterious weapon of the Ross people is in my hands!"

Three crossbows were captured, and some broken pieces were still in front of Siegfast.

The businessman saw the use of this weapon, and it was probably to buckle the string in a strange position, and then trigger a certain mechanism to launch.

The bow arm is iron, or a kind of elastic iron! The characteristics of the weapon shocked all knowledgeable people.

Siegfast didn't think much, he just wanted to control this weapon, he tried to pull the bowstring with his hands, but unfortunately he used a lot of effort and couldn't buckle the string into the mechanism.

The task was passed to Grund. The vigorous warrior forcibly wound up the string in a stepped manner. Then, a crossbow arrow was placed in the groove, and the end was stuck by a tenon.

It was also the first time for Grund to fiddle with the crossbow. Fortunately, he was a veteran warrior and had a high savvy for any weapon: "In this way, I probably fired it."

Siegfast happily took the weapon, and then casually aimed at the encircled receivers. With a sudden roar, many Gotland warriors were frightened. He himself was big and small.

"Hahaha! A group of cowards, I now have it, and I can easily kill the Ross people. Haha!"

The laughing person pulled the trigger, and the arrow directly hit one person's neck at close range, and then hit the other person's ear.

The first person lost consciousness and died on the spot. Don't tear the left ear of the second person and flew along with the arrows. His person was sitting on the ground holding his ear and howling with pain. The Gotland warriors retreated in shock, and the violent vibration of the crossbow caused Siegfast to let go.

"You actually killed your own person!" Grund yelled loudly.

"This is an accident."

"You are a botched excuse!" Grund picked up the crossbow and said immediately, "Now they are confiscated by me. And you! The king told me that he asked the brothers to take care of your behavior. I didn't expect that you actually... "

"I...I will lose money. I just missed to kill people. These are the weapons of the Ross people. They have a curse."

"Absurd curse! Let's be an accident! Our mission is enough. There are three thousand people in the Ross. They are all capable of fighting, and they want to fight a decisive battle with us. The news must be told to the king immediately, and we have to leave."

"What? You mean we will withdraw now?"

"Is there any point in staying?" Grund further said, "We must go back soon to rectify the army. Our army has very tight time. We must fight three thousand Russians. We must..."

Siegfast interrupted with a roar, "Are you teaching me to do things? I am the king's eldest son, and I will be King Gotland from now on. I command you, and you must follow my command!"

"Don't you plan to take this news back with you?"

Siegfast asked in turn, "Do you believe the words of the Ross people that way?"

"This is to be believed, we can't be careless."

"Forget it! They don't have so many people. And you!" Siegfast punched Grund directly, "You call yourself a warrior, then continue with me! I want to find out the details of the Rose Lander Location, and find the corpse of the starved and exhausted Arik. I changed my mind and take the villain Arik back and hang it up to let everyone vent their anger."

"This is crazy. Are you going to take these people to beat the army of the Ross people? Just rely on these so-called elite islanders?"

"Are you worried about me?" Siegfast puffed, "I just want to fight, at least I will attack them first. People on the island are afraid of the Ross people. Now it's up to me to defeat the butcher Arik's Siegfast, take you to continue the victory!"

In any case, Arik did escape. In this battle, 500 of the Gotlanders died and 100 people died. The loss ratio between the two sides was very ugly, but the Gotland army did win.

A young Gotland warrior suddenly raised his battle axe and roared, "King Siegfast! Our king!"

This battle at least swept away the Gotland fighters' fear of the Ross army. In any case, Siegfast was the commander-in-chief of the army.

More and more soldiers roared "King Siegfast" as if Haken had passed him the throne.

The soldiers supported a "great warrior" who brought victory. Seeing this scene, Grund also knew to follow the crowd, his eyes hinted that his Danish guys supported his sponsor, and he whispered slogans expressionlessly. .

Siegfast was promoted to a very high position, and he bent over with a smile, even if there were still corpses piled up on the battlefield!

"Keep on fighting! Brothers! I learned that the leader of the Rus is called Rurik, and there is another guy named Otto~www.novelhall.com~ I took you to chop off their heads, and I took their weapons. , We will all be Visby’s heroes! Think about it, so many women are eager to marry heroes, you follow me, everyone can get honor, wealth and happiness."

Siegfast used some of the trade tactics to consolidate the army, not to mention that this method of painting the pie is indeed effective.

The bodies of the Rus and Gotland were buried separately, and two large mounds were erected on the flat ground.

It was almost evening, and Siegfast continued to advance along the river with an army of hundreds of people, but the resistance of the Danish mercenaries was fermented very badly.

"Big brother, I don't want to follow this daredevil. The Ross people really have three thousand troops. We go to die."

"The Gotlanders are masters in business. They are not good at fighting."

"When we really fight, we have to give our lives to this kind of person? The wounded soldier said that the leader of the Rus was blessed by Odin. Is it honorable for us to fight such a person."

"He's right. If the leader of Ross really gets blessings from God, what should the brothers do? We take refuge in the people whom Odin cares about. It is very glorious. We will go directly to the Hall of Valor. Sigfast gives What's your money."

...

They seemed to have ten thousand reasons for not wanting to go further, which made Grund embarrassed. Some people's remarks gave him deeper thinking.

"Just believe me for the last time!" Grund urged everyone to keep up with the big army. "Without the protection of our brothers, let this stupid guy go to war, he will die. Siegfast is really dead, and we too It's time to consider changing to a sponsor. That man had better not die, but we don't have to worry. In this world, many people need the help of our brothers."

I heard that some soldiers who heard the meaning chuckled. They looked at the bold group of Gotland soldiers with ambiguous eyes.
