The enemy leader must be killed. Originally, Otto meant that blood eagles and the like were too cruel, even if he gave that person the last bit of food, he chopped off his head and ended everything cleanly.

Since that person was a prince, and a top noble of the enemy was captured, instead of beheading it directly, it would be better to find a way to exchange it for greater benefits. Anyway, the man's hands were chopped off, and Liang Qi did not have the power to resist.

The Ross warrior had wiped the forest axe clean, and Arik stopped all this as he was about to slash it. He came back, breathing heavily, and reported with satisfaction that his men hadn't done anything.

"It's so dangerous!" Otto also let out a sigh, then looked at Grund: "Do you know why I want to spare that man's life?"

"Why? Oh, of course Duke Ross's determination is not something ordinary people like me can think of."

Rurik really understood the old man’s suggestion, so he smiled and said, “Grund, you have said that Visby is very rich, and the businessman named Harken is also very rich. Will that guy help himself? What about his son? Will he redeem it with a sum of money?"

Otto opened his eyes suddenly, because he didn't mean this at all, and he didn't even intend to ask for a ransom. Now that Rurik mentioned this kind of thing, what new plans does this kid have? Obviously, the child thought of a lot of things.

Seeing the urging eyes from his father, Rurik deliberately said something, especially the plan for the entire war including the decisive battle.

When Rurik learned that Siegfast, who was beaten to death, was actually a prince, he had the idea of ​​asking for a ransom.

Arik snatched words: "How can it be so troublesome. We won the decisive battle. We robbed Visby. All the money is ours. The ransom? Is it necessary?"

"Your cousin makes sense. Why should we do more? However, asking for a ransom is also a way to test the enemy. I...actually think so." Otto said a little timidly, his true thoughts are really with his nephew. same.

Why ask for a ransom, win the decisive battle and enter Visby to **** them, and finally burn the largest settlement of the Gotland people. What glory is this? ! With this honor, both the dead and the alive Rose will inevitably meet again in the Hall of Valor after the war.

"That won't work! I..." Rurik stood up abruptly, and then said shockingly: "You all think that our army must rob Visby?!"

Otto was taken aback: "What do you mean? You mean not to rob?"

"Dad, and the sitting brothers, what is our purpose?"

"Of course it is to slash you, obtain their wealth, and turn their wives and daughters into our women." Arik’s calm words all revealed the hideous fangs, and Otto also bluntly expressed his appreciation for the great. This "full score answer" from my nephew.

Rurik is not surprised: "It is true. Let me add one more thing. Our Ross army must accomplish all this at the least cost."

"Oh? What do you want to do?" Otto asked hurriedly.

"I am a military commander. In future decisive battles, I will order the soldiers to kill the enemy as much as possible and try to avoid them from fleeing. After losing the main fighting force, the Visbys cannot organize new resistance forces. Maybe this time our army will enter. It is the most appropriate, and it is true, but..." Rurik deliberately sold it and paused: "The soldiers looted spontaneously. Will they take out the looted property on their own initiative?"

"Why do you want to take it out? They grabbed it by themselves, so it should be their own." Otto added: "Our rules are like this. The new rules are mine if they grab the cash box and find the warehouse. "

"It's the Duke of Ross." Rurik also added, "The Duke of Ross's is also mine. So I must find a way to drain the wealth of the Gotlanders. The gold and silver must be controlled by me, and It must be redistributed to the soldiers by me.

Besides, let the soldiers looted spontaneously, and everyone was scattered. The root of our victory is not only God's blessing, but also my command! The Ross army is the most powerful if it is condensed into a whole. If individual soldiers are scattered, they will be defeated by the enemy.

A single warrior was frantically resisted by the remaining residents of Visby, and many people would die.

In this way, as the Duke of Ross, I cannot get a lot of wealth, and I will also lose many brothers. This is a huge failure. "

Rurik took a mouthful of his own Duke of Ross. The others sounded a little strange, but Otto himself didn't care. Because he had sworn in the chief priest's house many years ago, he would live as a servant of the "son of God" for the rest of his life. "Son of God" is Rurik.

Rurik's explanation is very realistic. After thinking about it calmly, the highest aristocrat of Ross, represented by the Duke of Ross, really needs this method to extract the most benefits. Because the times have indeed changed. In the past, a war chief led hundreds of people to robbery. When everyone took out the spoils, it was easy to complete the distribution after internal negotiations.

Today, there is an army of three thousand people. In order not to cause unhappiness in the future, then don't let the brothers freely plunder!

"When we won the decisive battle, we sent people to persuade the Visby people to be sent down. I want them to pay a huge amount of war compensation. For example, two thousand pounds of silver coins, or four thousand pounds? And sheepskin, cheese. They have The money and supplies of the Chinese people must be handed over. Yes! Some of their women will also be handed over. These things will be handed over to me in exchange for a truce."

Hearing it, Otto took a deep breath. Looking at his son's attitude so firm, it can be seen that he is serious. "Rurik, are you... you want to cut off the last wool of the sheep?"

Rurik pursed his lips: "Otherwise? They have to spend so much money to buy peace, otherwise we will rob their Visby directly according to the original plan. Oh, by the way, and their ships, all the quality is still Good ships must be a bargaining chip to buy peace. Hopefully, there won’t be more ships trying to escape. Gould’s fleet will leave Tombstone Island tomorrow as planned. Three days later, Aphrora. When the ship enters the sea off Visby, all those who try to escape will be ruthlessly sunk!"

Otto sighed, feeling that his son's verbal methods were so vicious! He will do it! Just like the Gotland patrol ship encountered when returning from the south, this kid invented the "seesaw" and executed the captives to sacrifice to the sea **** by this novel method.

Otto thought of something again, and he hesitated in his heart: "The guy named Siegfast, he buried our warriors in accordance with the customs of the Gotland people. This kind of person can be killed cleanly, or be spared. He lives. Now you have to redeem this person for the ransom and put him back. Will he command a new army to fight back? Even if the person's hands are cut off, the commanding army requires brains."

"This person is still a threat, I really can't stay." Arik said cruelly, obviously he didn't pay much attention to the ransom demand.

The life and death power of a captive is in the hands of the victor. In his heart, Grund hopes that his old gold lord Siegfast will die. He has his own small ninety-nine. The so-called that this person was really replaced, he promoted things like "Danish mercenary backstab" in Visby, which is really detrimental to his reputation.

Grund was also dissatisfied with Duke Ross's statement, which specifically explained: "My lord, Siegfast, did not order the burial of the bodies of your war dead."

"What did you say?" Otto consciously heard something very absurd.

Grund deliberately amplified his voice. He needed the top nobles of the Ross people who were present to know what they valued the top nobles of the Gotland.

"Siegerfast is an arrogant man. Just as you cut off his hand muscles, this guy is in this area and treats your wounded soldiers in the same way. Siegerfast threatens to slowly kill the Ruths. He did the same. He was very happy watching the Ross soldiers bleed. I can't tolerate these things. I stabbed your wounded people to death and ended their pain. For this reason, Siegfast was furious."

At this point, Otto and others were already shaking.

Rurik thought this was a bit weird. He looked at Grund suspiciously, guessing that this person was deliberately degrading his old master so much. Obviously, this person has something to say.

"Sigfast wants to put all the corpses of the Ross soldiers into the Wilderness. It's me! Bring your brothers to condense your dead bodies, but they piled up a mound. So the burial where the Ross soldiers are buried is different from the others. "

"You! You mean, you buried those soldiers?!" Otto, in a rage, gasped and forced him to ask, this aura made Grund nearly lying down. Tell me slightly

Arik stood up angrily and suddenly drew out his steel sword and roared, "Make that idiot a blood eagle! I'll go now!"

He turned to leave, but was grabbed by Haro Zuosen, who was motioned by Otto's eyes.

"Boy, you have to calm down!"

"Don't call me a boy! Harrodsson, I am a fighter, and I just want to execute this wicked man for my brothers."

Contrary to Arik's rage, Rurik remained calm. Ottoben was also furious, but fortunately, his fifty years of life experience had tempered him sufficiently stable.

Rurik looked at Grund deliberately: "Dane, we have spared your lives. This is an oath to Odin. You can't report these times to show your achievements, nor can you splash your old master. Dirty water."

This was something Grund hadn't expected. He thought that the Ross people would be angry. The Rurik in front of him was really different.

Grund hurriedly slapped his chest and swears: "What I said is the truth. I dare to have a fallacy when being struck by thunder. This is what we have experienced. That Siegfast, he is not a fighter, but an arrogant one. A businessman. He doesn't respect the warrior, let alone the dead. Now, Odin sends his warriors to fight against this madman."

The following words are obviously true flattery. Looking at the angry emotions of the father and brother again, Rurik thinks for a moment. If these news spread to the whole army, what ransom is required? The angry warrior would immediately surround the captive, and then eat it all at once, without leaving any bone scum.

Rurik closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and in his mind he revised the ransom demand plan he had imagined.

He slowly opened his eyes and gave orders as a military commander: "We must get the ransom!"

Arik sat on the ground, his right arm resting on the hilt, teeth shaking his head: "I would be more willing to make him a blood eagle. Hey, I just stopped the execution. Why did I run so fast? It's better to watch the brothers chop. Lost that person's head."

"It's not necessary at all, but this man must die. Arik, listen to my plan now..."

At this night, Rürich ordered Grund to rest, but in fact he was taken away.

Soon the flag captains of the various flag teams, as well as some important personnel, were summoned to this bonfire.

As a military commander, Liurik has set the so-called decisive battle site—Qiaocun.

The former bridge village has been turned into a piece of scorched earth, but the local area has been developed on a large scale. A lot of woods have been cut down, weeds grow wildly suitable for shepherding sheep, and some areas are planted with oats.

There is an open area that can accommodate tens of thousands of people in a decisive battle, so the Ross people will not be guilty of the entire army climbing over the mound, and then attacking in front of the city of Visby.

Rurik knows the strength of the Rus army best, and even some visible disadvantages.

Today's Ross army has become an army that emphasizes land power. Three thousand soldiers gather together and speak three languages. All of these are challenging the commander's organization and the soldier's execution.

What if the whole army overcame the mounds and set up a decisive battle? Then the team will inevitably become procrastinated when climbing over the mountain, and the army will be full of flaws, and it will be troublesome if it is attacked by the enemy.

The most important thing is that what the Rus army received is training for flat ground operations. Only in a sufficiently large open area can the Russ army be able to exert its strength. At that time, the spear array, the sword and shield hand outflank, the crossbowman and the torsion slingshot shooting, and even the combat of the heavy armored fighters, must achieve the best results in a flat and open space.

Many people think that the army quickly annihilated 500 enemies, why should the decisive battle in the future follow the rules. The soldiers climbed over the mound like a pack of wolves, and then swallowed Visby like a mudslide.

Rurik has been too lazy to preach to people who hold this kind of thinking, it makes no sense.

"We don't have to tire our feet and climb over the mound to fight them decisively. We are lined up here, drinking the sweet water, waiting for the enemy who crosses the mound. The enemy is tired, we are full of energy, and I have the advantage!"

Rurik has been expounding his idea of ​​waiting for work. Otto consciously understands a lot. He still has some questions: "How do you judge that the enemy will surely cross the mountain and fight us? The enemy and I are separated by a mountain, and we do not take the initiative to climb the mountain, they Why take the initiative?"

Rurik looked into his father’s eyes: “It’s like a sword hanging above his head. Although the sword did not fall, everyone knows that the sword fell to assassinate and bleed. Of course, we have to find a way to get it away. The Visby people are like this. We are entrenched here, the army rests well, and the enemy feels the pressure. As for inducing them to go over the mountain and fight us decisively, I have enough bait."

"Bait? Isn't it the same Siegfast?" Otto asked.

"It's him. Besides, I should release some prisoners."

"Captive?" Arik asked, who was still angry. "Do we still have captives? Those captives were taken home."

"Yes, the men captured in Baisha Port, they still have three hundred. It seems that no one can conclude that this group of defectors will fight for us sincerely, and maybe they will beat us when they charge. These people are not credible. , Then let them go!"

"Hey?" Arik continued to question: "If you don't worry, they will leave it to me. I let the brothers chop it."

"No, these people are all useful. I can summon those people and give them a chance to escape back to Visby. Those with the most determined attitude can't really surrender. Let them go back to Visby and spread us Ross. The news of the army, and the conditions to redeem Siegfast. I want their king to redeem his leader himself, and..."

Suddenly, Rurik thought of a new big strategy.

He stood up suddenly, "We brought a group of crossbowmen. We pretended to release the captives and shot them face to face. We must send many crossbowmen, so maybe we can directly assassinate their king. In my opinion, Wei The king of the Sby people is dead, and they will fall into irreversible chaos."

"Cut off their king directly? I should do this job." Arik realized that this job was his own responsibility.

Speaking of which, Rurik shook his head: "If the assassination can be completed is the best, it depends on whether our arrows are lucky. I can at least guarantee that the brothers can shoot that Siegfast and whether they win the game. Death by an arrow is not very important. Of course, that guy is best shot. Maybe the king is not dead. What will he do when the king of Gotland sees his prince die in front of him?!"

Arik smiled, his split eyes revealing arrogance: "He will get revenge! He will be paid like crazy~www.novelhall.com~ I really don't see it, brother, since when have you become so fierce."

"It's probably the battle on the glacier in the east. I can see it through! The war is like this. I want to induce the enemy to become reckless avengers, so that they will be killed by our army according to my assumptions when they become stupid. Tomorrow morning, We released some prisoners and took a group of brothers to camp in the mound. By the way, that Siegfast can't die yet."

In this way, Rurik finally explained his strategy. In the end, Otto got goose bumps. He feels that his son has become a cold villain, and it is fair to say that this trick can irritate a father the most.

With an old face staring at the stars, how Otto hopes the Valkyrie can manifest. He hoped that a green streamer would appear in the sky, because this area would soon become corpses all over the wild, and the soul of the death soldier needed to be taken away by the Valkyrie who was gazing at the battle.

He also imagined that Rurik deliberately through his correct command, the Russian army can achieve a complete victory with a very small loss.
