"The Rise of Rurik (
The Ross army began to go to Visby. To be on the safe side, Haro Zuosen led the Warriors' Second Flag team and marched in lightly. Everything is as the surrendered Harald said, Visby is left with some old and weak remaining, and some wandering sheep, and a pile of dead bodies lying on the ground.
Those women and children saw the invading army all entering their homes.
"Brothers, all the people who caught alive, these are the slaves of our Ross people. They don't go to do anything if they don't resist." Haro Zossen has no intention of killing innocents. After all, the enemy has completely stopped resisting. The hatred, now as the enemy combatants turned into corpses in one place, the hatred has disappeared.
The hostile forces on Gotland no longer exist, and the remaining population is absorbed by Luo. Ultimately, Ross’s strength is strengthened. Haro Zossen is a pragmatic old guy. No, he quickly grabbed two hundred. Multiple people.
There are mostly women, old women, and a group of extremely young children who are crying. The old woman may be taken home and can only do some tailoring work. Of course, young women will become wives after being divided up by their brothers. No man will dislike his own women. As for a group of children, they will continue to be raised. Harozosen is too aware of Master Rurik's strategy. These wailing cubs will eventually become Russian fighters more than ten years later.
On the final march, Arik had no intention of violating his new woman. He was full of good words. He emphasized the strength of the Rus people, his own toughness, and sketched out a beautiful life to Asraki.
However, Aslaqi went all the way without saying a word, as if she was a dumb.
Actually? The girl's heart has been shaken. Some of her did not believe in the past rumors, maybe some were true, and some were purely men who deliberately exaggerated the actions of the Ross army in order to resist the Ross people.
What she could see with her own eyes was that the composition of the Ross army was extremely complex. The uniformity and uniformity of the army did not look like human-eating monsters at all, but the legendary stories told by the priests. The Ross army was like Ass. Gad's army was so orderly. See! Looking around, the Ross army was passing through the gap in the mound in an orderly manner, and Visby was in front of it.
By now, Asraki asked herself that the Ruths seemed to have no more persecution of their family. What she fears is that "Arik the Butcher" is violent to herself, maybe this man is not so savage?
She kept on guard and watched the changes.
On the other hand, Harrodsson, who found as many as four hundred people in Visby, also found the house of the Harald family. The two sides almost fought because of a misunderstanding. After asking about the name, Haro Zuosen chose to take his brother around.
They all rushed to the coastal wharf in Visby with the flag of the flag team.
A group of men dressed in blue and white are beating their shields and shouting incessantly?
The fleet led by Gould continued to be vigilant, and people saw that the flag waving and shouting was clearly their own army, especially a flag that kept swaying.
After a while, a captured ship went straight to the Aphrola.
Gould remained vigilant and ordered the soldiers on the Aphrora to prepare for battle and guard against possible sneak attacks by the enemy. As a result, the boat was still some distance away, and Gould and many people on the boat recognized the familiar faces, put down the crossbow and removed the arrows one after another.
The boat docked next to the Aphrodite, and Gould on the big boat poked his head: "Isn't this Lord Haroldoson? I was so scared that I thought it was an enemy."
"Haha! My big businessman, don't you think the enemy can defeat our army?"
"How is that possible? You see, we are firmly in control of the bay and haven't let go of any enemies. How about? The army has entered the city?"
"Yes! The Duke asked me to bring you a message. Now the fleet is all calling at the port, and the whole army is stationed in Visby tonight. The war is over, and we have almost killed all our enemies! We have won!"
Hearing the phrase "kill all", Gould's heart became tight. Visby had to say that 10,000 people had to settle down. In just three days, he was really wiped out by three thousand Russian troops, including himself. Clean? If this is true, then his three views must be recast.
"Okay! Let's set off now! Hey, brothers are all uncomfortable floating on the sea, let's go ashore!"
The Ross army has entered the city!
Rurik couldn't think of it at all. He clearly didn't send anyone to attack. Visby's current scene clearly seemed to have experienced an urban war.
The messy roadways were littered with corpses, a large number of thatched and wooden longhouses were destroyed, and there were obvious burn marks in some places.
This harbor city was supposed to be a bustling place, but now everything has become depressed.
Soon, Rurik saw the capture of the advance troops.
"A large group of women and children? The men in Visby were all killed by our army?" Rurik imagined that this was the case. Harald was right, and there was no resistance here.
The corpses on the ground are too eye-catching, but the cattle and sheep in the pen are really precious.
Otto, who entered the city, casually ordered: "Brothers, catch the cattle and sheep with your ability. If you catch them, you will slaughter them immediately. We will all eat meat tonight."
Rurikben thinks this is a bit wrong. Every cow and sheep is a seed, and they can multiply a lot. Considering that I was greedy for roast leg of lamb, I simply gave up.
Rurik gave the brothers a key order: "Clean up the corpses! Check all the houses, look for belongings, and beware of the ambushing enemies."
The house of the Hlorev family welcomes a new owner, and Harald respectfully treats the conqueror, Duke Ross and his entourage to home.
His family members were terrified, and the Ross people came in and avoided them.
"Your people are afraid of me?" Otto asked with a smile.
Harald explained hurriedly, "It is indeed a little scared. They don't know what the Lord Duke will bring."
"Of course it is conquering. Oh, your loyal servant, I will forgive all the sins of your family members. Now come in and tell your people to take out their belongings. And!"
"Yes."
"My nephew Arik must have a wedding with your daughter tonight."
"Yes. We shall hold the wedding in the longhouse of the high altar, that is... the priests are all gone, maybe Aslaqi returns to your territory before..."
Otto laughed boldly, "Is it just for this reason? Fortunately, our High Priest Ross was also with us on this expedition. Our priest received Odin's favor. It is your daughter's honor to have her to hold the ceremony."
"That... that's great."
Harald can only agree. Now that the Ross people have occupied the entire Visby, he can only hope that the conqueror can treat his family better as agreed.
The Ross people don't always reject wealth, right?
Harald took the Ross people to dig through his own silver cellar, and a large amount of coins buried in the ground are seen again today.
The popularity of carrying boxes was panting, and a large number of wooden boxes were placed in the small courtyard of the mansion. Seeing this situation, Otto's heart was ecstatic, but he couldn't laugh wildly, he had to maintain a majesty.
Rurik also sullen his face, relaying restraint to his subordinates who are not calm.
"Are these all? You only have fourteen boxes?"
Duke Ross still seems unsatisfied? Harald hurriedly explained: "Except for the meeting ceremony, there are still four hundred and four hundred pounds of silver coins here, and they are almost all good-quality."
"Is it good-looking? I have to see for myself."
After all, Otto motioned to Rurik, "The money is all yours. Come and see how well it is."
Rurik's eyes widened, and he swallowed hard. If it was exactly what Harald said, the army's trip was really profitable.
The box in the dusty ground is full of mud and slightly damp, but the silver is hard to rust.
The boxes were opened one after another, and all the viewers shuddered. The huge wealth stimulates the minds of the soldiers. If it weren't for these belongings to be marked as the duke's possession, the brothers would rush to grab them by their ability.
Rurik, who made the silver coins, completely confirmed their color. Quite a few of them are Frankish silver coins, while the old ones are Roman silver coins that have been used for an unknown period of time. Some silver coins are obviously damaged. I am afraid that it was not caused by wear and tear during circulation, but a merchant deliberately filed the corners and corners and finally recast a silver coin.
Silver is silver, and when a smart merchant faces the payment, he regards it as color and weighs it. On the whole, the fineness of these silver coins is very good. They represent the financial strength of the Harald family and also demonstrate their sincerity.
Rurik patted his clothes and stood up, and threw back the silver coin that he had played until it was warm.
"Harald, is this money really 1,400 pounds?"
"As you can see."
"Let’s go ahead." Ryurik raised his head and looked at the houses of the mansion again: "Your house is big! It's just that the family members who live in you are obviously too big. A large number of houses are occupied by people. Now they are empty. This Why?"
"Many longhouses are the residences of mercenaries. I..." Harald hesitated and explained: "I have raised nearly two hundred Danish mercenaries, but unfortunately they all died on the battlefield in Bridge Village. There are some more. In the warehouse, there are a batch of sheepskins and some strange little things. Those things, I...willing to offer them."
Something rare? Rurik learned that Visby’s merchants had a peaceful day, but they communicated very closely with the Danes. He learned of the Danish bazaar named Hezeby, and another named Sirius Port, or in other words Schleswig. This Harald, he must have some gold and silver utensils imported from the Frankish Kingdom, and even old objects from the Western Roman Empire.
It's a pity that his mansion is not small, the houses and wooden walls are simple, and what's worse is that these houses have no floor!
"Well, I don't want your weird things, no matter how precious glassware, I am not rare. Harald!"
"Yes."
"I am the military commander of Ross and the owner of the greatest wealth of the Principality of Ross. My words are the law! I will take away half of your wealth as agreed, and the seven hundred pounds of silver in it will still be your wealth. Wait until we finish. After all this, your family will leave with our army, and your family must serve me in the future. Listen, serve me seriously and you will get more wealth."
"Oh! That's great!" It sounds like the Ross people promised a great thing. Harald couldn't be sure that it was true at all. He remained vigilant this time, and his eyes looked at his daughter." "The boudoir", but now that boudoir has a new occupant-the butcher Arik.
Arik and Asraki are waiting, and the couple will get married tonight. What was supposed to be very happy was that Harald couldn't laugh. He didn't know what would happen in the future. Obviously, he could only look at Duke Rose's face and act.
Rurik still greatly underestimated the wealth of the Visby merchant.
Visby, which was supposed to be withered and dilapidated, soon became bustling with the entire port city as the conquerors moved in. It was the young soldiers of the Warriors Second Banner team, as well as a large number of sailors, Ross veterans and female soldiers who disembarked. They carried a large number of boxes and lined up dragons. The viewers were wondering what they had gotten.
The sun was about to set, and the entire Visby was stunned into an excavation site.
Harald knows best where his merchant colleagues like to bury their silver. This kind of strange knowledge cannot be realized by bandits and civilians. He took a group of soldiers to almost tore down the old mansion of a dead friend and merchant, and the Rus took out a large amount of leather, linen, and some extremely valuable Chen Mai. Some people have actually digged into the merchant's bedroom with shovel and axe, and a batch of heavy boxes were unearthed one after another.
Prior to those excavations, Gould happily walked into the "military command post" of the Duke of Ross in Harald's home, and he offered a gift that was enough to make Otto faint.
There is nothing to say, fifty boxes, preliminary estimate is five thousand pounds of silver coins.
With the addition of those offered by Harald and excavated by the soldiers at the moment, Otto and Lurik were astonished that they had actually obtained seven thousand pounds of silver coins, which was the least amount of gold coins.
A few years ago, a silver coin in Roseburg was extremely precious. Since Arik led his troops to looting Gotland and retrieved nearly a thousand pounds of silver coins at a time, the silver coins have become worthless. It's fine now, seven thousand pounds of silver has become the treasure of the Ross people.
After a huge sum of money was smashed, Otto had no opinion at all, and many elites imagined that they could buy it after the huge sum of money was divided. Although Rurik was also taken aback, he turned around and realized that if all the money fell into the hands of the people, the economy of the Rus would not be messed up because of vicious inflation?
Therefore, seven thousand pounds of silver coins and even the new money and seized goods that were later discovered must be firmly controlled by yourself!
Fools and mortals have no right to get this huge sum of money. After all, it is the original capital of the rise of the Ross tribe!
At this moment, Rurik really understood why the accumulation of primitive capital was full of blood and tears. But, who cares?
As night fell, the Ross army and fighters of all ethnic groups became the new residents of Visby.
Everyone lit a bonfire, brazenly roasting the newly slaughtered sheep and poultry, and feasting on the seized ale. Three long weeks have passed since the expedition to the present! If there is not enough seizure, the rations of the Ross army will be in a hurry.
Fortunately, the dust settled and the Gotlanders were completely defeated. The food they stocked and the cattle and sheep that they raised became a meal for the Ross army.
People laughed and talked about unprecedented victories in multiple languages. Many fledgling young fighters felt that the brothers killed at least a thousand Danish mercenaries, and the legendary dangerous and powerful Danes were nothing but this, or that the Ross army was led by Lord Rurik and the old leader Otto. It is already the strongest force in the known world. The spread of pride and complacency is understandable. After all, since the Russ left the fjord and began to expand, four years have gone from one victory to another. failure? nonexistent.
Visby is a sea of bonfires. She was originally a city formed around a "Frey Great Altar". Now the Frey Temple has a new owner.
The priests of Old Visby all fled, and the Russ had no intention of capturing them. It was they who gave up the gods, and God naturally would not bless them anymore.
The dead King of Gotland, Haken, forcibly desecrated Frey, and replaced the deity served in the temple with Odin.
Now the high priest of the Rus, Lumia, the woman who everyone believes to be spared by Odin, sacrificed to Odin in the altar. Sacrificial activities are only part of a series of rituals. When the sacred ceremony is over, a wedding ceremony is held immediately.
At the altar in the long room, Arik and Asraki completed the wedding ceremony in accordance with Rose's custom. Watching their eldest nephew marry the second woman, Otto was really happy.
A bottle of spirits was a special gift Otto gave to his nephew. In shock, Aslaqi held the burning walrus tusks glass and forcibly drank the burning spirits. Looking at Arik in front of him, this man seemed to be used to it.
Did the Ross people who went to the north learn some magic in the world of ice and snow? There is burning wine!
Aslaqi had chosen to agree, but she did not resist. She was held by her own man princess and returned directly to her own boudoir.
The door was closed, and the female soldiers who were in charge of guards had no right to enter.
After the campfire, the satiated Ross army finally calmed down. They occupied the old Visby house and fell asleep.
Otto suffocated the last bottle of spirits, and finally fell asleep in the air.
Where's Rurik? Then they slept together surrounded by a group of maids.
Harald's mansion serves as the command center of the Rus, and currently there are only a group of elite fighters on regular patrols.
Almost everyone fell asleep, but Arik didn't want to rest so early. He didn't immediately "hands on" his wife. The two just lay peacefully on the soft sheepskin blanket and talked.
Asraki hoped to get an answer, and it was Arik who personally talked about his actions on the island. In fact, she never hated Arik, and her family had not suffered a serious loss in the war and catastrophe, and Ross's power obviously also gave leniency. Asraki just listened to those legends and was afraid of Arik's preconceivedness.
The gods have testified that this young woman is his second wife. Arik had no intention of concealing his own woman.
"Some people say that I am a butcher, maybe it is. They made me like this! I only kill my enemies. For my brothers, I will give them all the money I have captured."
Aslaqi was shocked to hear, because those rumors were all true, and her husband's killing was too much.
She didn't want to criticize anything, so she asked: "Is your personality always like this?"
"Neither."
"So..."
"Since my father was killed by the Gotland in the fall ten years ago, I have decided to retaliate. We Russ just strayed and had no intention of attacking Gotland, but the fighting broke out. Our offensive was for this purpose. Revenge! For the past ten years, I have been thinking about revenge every day!" Arik said more and more angry, but the intelligent Asraki heard sadness and low self-esteem.
Finally, she noticed that Arik was crying.
"Now, do you still have hatred? Visby has some houses left, and Gotland has failed." Asraki approached Arik and asked weakly.
"The hatred is gone, the old Gotland people no longer exist. You...you are my wife, and you are the Ross people. Did you know? I need the company of my family to be my woman and I will treat you well. Give birth to me and you will enjoy a high status in the Duchy of Ross, and your family will prosper."
At this moment, Asraki also moved his true feelings. Perhaps Arik is a butcher, a man who has lived in intense hatred for ten years, and it makes sense to be the most dangerous berserker with a blank mind in battle.
She asked softly: "That Rurik, is your brother? A beautiful boy, I think he is Rose's... King."
"Yes, he is loved by Odin. It is a gift that Odin bestows on the Ross people. Everyone obeys his orders. Our old priest also received Odin’s blessing. He is now eighty years old. She will The position was given to that girl, our new high priest, a woman who raises a deer. That woman should have died, and Aden gave her a new life to serve us the Ross."
The Ross people are really full of fantasy, and Aslaqi hurriedly asked in surprise: "Then you...are you blessed by Odin?"
"I thought, yes. My arm was seriously injured, but I didn't have any disease, and I recovered without pain. Because during the treatment, our priest sang a prayer, and it was God that made me heal. ."
Aslaqi had no doubts, she took a long breath, and even couldn't wait: "Come on, my berserker! Our priest told me that my man is a real warrior. Odin is Right, let me..." She settled and said decisively: "Let me be a woman."
Under the dim oil lamp, Arik smiled, and he rushed over without a word...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Fortunately, the dust settled and the Gotlanders were completely defeated. The food they stocked and the cattle and sheep that they raised became a meal for the Ross army.
People laughed and talked about unprecedented victories in multiple languages. Many fledgling young fighters felt that the brothers killed at least a thousand Danish mercenaries, and the legendary dangerous and powerful Danes were nothing but this, or that the Ross army was led by Lord Rurik and the old leader Otto. It is already the strongest force in the known world. The spread of pride and complacency is understandable. After all, since the Russ left the fjord and began to expand, four years have gone from one victory to another. failure? nonexistent.
Visby is a sea of bonfires. She was originally a city formed around a "Frey Great Altar". Now the Frey Temple has a new owner.
The priests of Old Visby all fled, and the Russ had no intention of capturing them. It was they who gave up the gods, and God naturally would not bless them anymore.
The dead King of Gotland, Haken, forcibly desecrated Frey, and replaced the deity served in the temple with Odin.
Now the high priest of the Rus, Lumia, the woman who everyone believes to be spared by Odin, sacrificed to Odin in the altar. Sacrificial activities are only part of a series of rituals. When the sacred ceremony is over, a wedding ceremony is held immediately.
At the altar in the long room, Arik and Asraki completed the wedding ceremony in accordance with Rose's custom. Watching their eldest nephew marry the second woman, Otto was really happy.
A bottle of spirits was a special gift Otto gave to his nephew. In shock, Aslaqi held the burning walrus tusks glass and forcibly drank the burning spirits. Looking at Arik in front of him, this man seemed to be used to it.
Did the Ross people who went to the north learn some magic in the world of ice and snow? There is burning wine!
Aslaqi had chosen to agree, but she did not resist. She was held by her own man princess and returned directly to her own boudoir.
The door was closed, and the female soldiers who were in charge of guards had no right to enter.
After the campfire, the satiated Ross army finally calmed down. They occupied the old Visby house and fell asleep.
Otto suffocated the last bottle of spirits, and finally fell asleep in the air.
Where's Rurik? Then they slept together surrounded by a group of maids.
Harald's mansion serves as the command center of the Rus, and currently there are only a group of elite fighters on regular patrols.
Almost everyone fell asleep, but Arik didn't want to rest so early. He didn't immediately "hands on" his wife. The two just lay peacefully on the soft sheepskin blanket and talked.
Asraki hoped to get an answer, and it was Arik who personally talked about his actions on the island. In fact, she never hated Arik, and her family had not suffered a serious loss in the war and catastrophe, and Ross's power obviously also gave leniency. Asraki just listened to those legends and was afraid of Arik's preconceivedness.
The gods have testified that this young woman is his second wife. Arik had no intention of concealing his own woman.
"Some people say that I am a butcher, maybe it is. They made me like this! I only kill my enemies. For my brothers, I will give them all the money I have captured."
Aslaqi was shocked to hear, because those rumors were all true, and her husband's killing was too much.
She didn't want to criticize anything, so she asked: "Is your personality always like this?"
"Neither."
"So..."
"Since my father was killed by the Gotland in the fall ten years ago, I have decided to retaliate. We Russ just strayed and had no intention of attacking Gotland, but the fighting broke out. Our offensive was for this purpose. Revenge! For the past ten years, I have been thinking about revenge every day!" Arik said more and more angry, but the intelligent Asraki heard sadness and low self-esteem.
Finally, she noticed that Arik was crying.
"Now, do you still have hatred? Visby has some houses left, and Gotland has failed." Asraki approached Arik and asked weakly.
"The hatred is gone, the old Gotland people no longer exist. You...you are my wife, and you are the Ross people. Did you know? I need the company of my family to be my woman and I will treat you well. Give birth to me and you will enjoy a high status in the Duchy of Ross, and your family will prosper."
At this moment, Asraki also moved his true feelings. Perhaps Arik is a butcher, a man who has lived in intense hatred for ten years, and it makes sense to be the most dangerous berserker with a blank mind in battle.
She asked softly: "That Rurik, is your brother? A beautiful boy, I think he is Rose's... King."
"Yes, he is loved by Odin. It is a gift that Odin bestows on the Ross people. Everyone obeys his orders. Our old priest also received Odin’s blessing. He is now eighty years old. She will The position was given to that girl, our new high priest, a woman who raises a deer. That woman should have died, and Aden gave her a new life to serve us the Ross."
The Ross people are really full of fantasy, and Aslaqi hurriedly asked in surprise: "Then you...are you blessed by Odin?"
"I thought, yes. My arm was seriously injured, but I didn't have any disease, and I recovered without pain. Because during the treatment, our priest sang a prayer, and it was God that made me heal. ."
Aslaqi had no doubts, she took a long breath, and even couldn't wait: "Come on, my berserker! Our priest told me that my man is a real warrior. Odin is Right, let me..." She settled and said decisively: "Let me be a woman."
Under the dim oil lamp, Arik smiled, and he rushed over without a word...
"The Rise of Rurik The Ross army began to go to Visby. To be on the safe side, Haro Zuosen led the Warriors' Second Flag team and marched in lightly. Everything is as the surrendered Harald said, Visby is left with some old and weak remaining, and some wandering sheep, and a pile of dead bodies lying on the ground.Those women and children saw the invading army all entering their homes."Brothers, all the people who caught alive, these are the slaves of our Ross people. They don't go to do anything if they don't resist." Haro Zossen has no intention of killing innocents. After all, the enemy has completely stopped resisting. The hatred, now as the enemy combatants turned into corpses in one place, the hatred has disappeared.The hostile forces on Gotland no longer exist, and the remaining population is absorbed by Luo. Ultimately, Ross's strength is strengthened. Haro Zossen is a pragmatic old guy. No, he quickly grabbed two hundred. Multiple people.There are mostly women, old women, and a group of extremely young children who are crying. The old woman may be taken home and can only do some tailoring work. Of course, young women will become wives after being divided up by their brothers. No man will dislike his own women. As for a group of children, they will continue to be raised. Harozosen is too aware of Master Rurik's strategy. These wailing cubs will eventually become Russian fighters more than ten years later.On the final march, Arik had no intention of violating his new woman. He was full of good words. He emphasized the strength of the Rus people, his own toughness, and sketched out a beautiful life to Asraki.However, Aslaqi went all the way without saying a word, as if she was a dumb.Actually? The girl's heart has been shaken. Some of her did not believe in the past rumors, maybe some were true, and some were purely men who deliberately exaggerated the actions of the Ross army in order to resist the Ross people.What she could see with her own eyes was that the composition of the Ross army was extremely complex. The uniformity and uniformity of the army did not look like human-eating monsters at all, but the legendary stories told by the priests. The Ross army was like Ass. Gad's army was so orderly. See! Looking around, the Ross army was passing through the gap in the mound in an orderly manner, and Visby was in front of it.By now, Asraki asked herself that the Ruths seemed to have no more persecution of their family. What she fears is that "Arik the Butcher" is violent to herself, maybe this man is not so savage?She kept on guard and watched the changes.On the other hand, Harrodsson, who found as many as four hundred people in Visby, also found the house of the Harald family. The two sides almost fought because of a misunderstanding. After asking about the name, Haro Zuosen chose to take his brother around.They all rushed to the coastal wharf in Visby with the flag of the flag team.A group of men dressed in blue and white are beating their shields and shouting incessantly?The fleet led by Gould continued to be vigilant, and people saw that the flag waving and shouting was clearly their own army, especially a flag that kept swaying.After a while, a captured ship went straight to the Aphrola.Gould remained vigilant and ordered the soldiers on the Aphrora to prepare for battle and guard against possible sneak attacks by the enemy. As a result, the boat was still some distance away, and Gould and many people on the boat recognized the familiar faces, put down the crossbow and removed the arrows one after another.The boat docked next to the Aphrodite, and Gould on the big boat poked his head: "Isn't this Lord Haroldoson? I was so scared that I thought it was an enemy.""Haha! My big businessman, don't you think the enemy can defeat our army?""How is that possible? You see, we are firmly in control of the bay and haven't let go of any enemies. How about? The army has entered the city?""Yes! The Duke asked me to bring you a message. Now the fleet is all calling at the port, and the whole army is stationed in Visby tonight. The war is over, and we have almost killed all our enemies! We have won!"Hearing the phrase "kill all", Gould's heart became tight. Visby had to say that 10,000 people had to settle down. In just three days, he was really wiped out by three thousand Russian troops, including himself. Clean? If this is true, then his three views must be recast."Okay! Let's set off now! Hey, brothers are all uncomfortable floating on the sea, let's go ashore!"The Ross army has entered the city!Rurik couldn't think of it at all. He clearly didn't send anyone to attack. Visby's current scene clearly seemed to have experienced an urban war.The messy roadways were littered with corpses, a large number of thatched and wooden longhouses were destroyed, and there were obvious burn marks in some places.This harbor city was supposed to be a bustling place, but now everything has become depressed.Soon, Rurik saw the capture of the advance troops."A large group of women and children? The men in Visby were all killed by our army?" Rurik imagined that this was the case. Harald was right, and there was no resistance here.The corpses on the ground are too eye-catching, but the cattle and sheep in the pen are really precious.Otto, who entered the city, casually ordered: "Brothers, catch the cattle and sheep with your ability. If you catch them, you will slaughter them immediately. We will all eat meat tonight."Rurikben thinks this is a bit wrong. Every cow and sheep is a seed, and they can multiply a lot. Considering that I was greedy for roast leg of lamb, I simply gave up.Rurik gave the brothers a key order: "Clean up the corpses! Check all the houses, look for belongings, and beware of the ambushing enemies."The house of the Hlorev family welcomes a new owner, and Harald respectfully treats the conqueror, Duke Ross and his entourage to home.His family members were terrified, and the Ross people came in and avoided them."Your people are afraid of me?" Otto asked with a smile.Harald explained hurriedly, "It is indeed a little scared. They don't know what the Lord Duke will bring.""Of course it is conquering. Oh, your loyal servant, I will forgive all the sins of your family members. Now come in and tell your people to take out their belongings. And!""Yes.""My nephew Arik must have a wedding with your daughter tonight.""Yes. We shall hold the wedding in the longhouse of the high altar, that is... the priests are all gone, maybe Aslaqi returns to your territory before..."Otto laughed boldly, "Is it just for this reason? Fortunately, our High Priest Ross was also with us on this expedition. Our priest received Odin's favor. It is your daughter's honor to have her to hold the ceremony.""That... that's great."Harald can only agree. Now that the Ross people have occupied the entire Visby, he can only hope that the conqueror can treat his family better as agreed.The Ross people don't always reject wealth, right?Harald took the Ross people to dig through his own silver cellar, and a large amount of coins buried in the ground are seen again today.The popularity of carrying boxes was panting, and a large number of wooden boxes were placed in the small courtyard of the mansion. Seeing this situation, Otto's heart was ecstatic, but he couldn't laugh wildly, he had to maintain a majesty.Rurik also sullen his face, relaying restraint to his subordinates who are not calm."Are these all? You only have fourteen boxes?"Duke Ross still seems unsatisfied? Harald hurriedly explained: "Except for the meeting ceremony, there are still four hundred and four hundred pounds of silver coins here, and they are almost all good-quality.""Is it good-looking? I have to see for myself."After all, Otto motioned to Rurik, "The money is all yours. Come and see how well it is."Rurik's eyes widened, and he swallowed hard. If it was exactly what Harald said, the army's trip was really profitable.The box in the dusty ground is full of mud and slightly damp, but the silver is hard to rust.The boxes were opened one after another, and all the viewers shuddered. The huge wealth stimulates the minds of the soldiers. If it weren't for these belongings to be marked as the duke's possession, the brothers would rush to grab them by their ability.Rurik, who made the silver coins, completely confirmed their color. Quite a few of them are Frankish silver coins, while the old ones are Roman silver coins that have been used for an unknown period of time. Some silver coins are obviously damaged. I am afraid that it was not caused by wear and tear during circulation, but a merchant deliberately filed the corners and corners and finally recast a silver coin.Silver is silver, and when a smart merchant faces the payment, he regards it as color and weighs it. On the whole, the fineness of these silver coins is very good. They represent the financial strength of the Harald family and also demonstrate their sincerity.Rurik patted his clothes and stood up, and threw back the silver coin that he had played until it was warm."Harald, is this money really 1,400 pounds?""As you can see.""Let's go ahead." Ryurik raised his head and looked at the houses of the mansion again: "Your house is big! It's just that the family members who live in you are obviously too big. A large number of houses are occupied by people. Now they are empty. This Why?""Many longhouses are the residences of mercenaries. I..." Harald hesitated and explained: "I have raised nearly two hundred Danish mercenaries, but unfortunately they all died on the battlefield in Bridge Village. There are some more. In the warehouse, there are a batch of sheepskins and some strange little things. Those things, I...willing to offer them."Something rare? Rurik learned that Visby's merchants had a peaceful day, but they communicated very closely with the Danes. He learned of the Danish bazaar named Hezeby, and another named Sirius Port, or in other words Schleswig. This Harald, he must have some gold and silver utensils imported from the Frankish Kingdom, and even old objects from the Western Roman Empire.It's a pity that his mansion is not small, the houses and wooden walls are simple, and what's worse is that these houses have no floor!"Well, I don't want your weird things, no matter how precious glassware, I am not rare. Harald!""Yes.""I am the military commander of Ross and the owner of the greatest wealth of the Principality of Ross. My words are the law! I will take away half of your wealth as agreed, and the seven hundred pounds of silver in it will still be your wealth. Wait until we finish. After all this, your family will leave with our army, and your family must serve me in the future. Listen, serve me seriously and you will get more wealth.""Oh! That's great!" It sounds like the Ross people promised a great thing. Harald couldn't be sure that it was true at all. He remained vigilant this time, and his eyes looked at his daughter." "The boudoir", but now that boudoir has a new occupant-the butcher Arik.Arik and Asraki are waiting, and the couple will get married tonight. What was supposed to be very happy was that Harald couldn't laugh. He didn't know what would happen in the future. Obviously, he could only look at Duke Rose's face and act.Rurik still greatly underestimated the wealth of the Visby merchant.Visby, which was supposed to be withered and dilapidated, soon became bustling with the entire port city as the conquerors moved in. It was the young soldiers of the Warriors Second Banner team, as well as a large number of sailors, Ross veterans and female soldiers who disembarked. They carried a large number of boxes and lined up dragons. The viewers were wondering what they had gotten.The sun was about to set, and the entire Visby was stunned into an excavation site.Harald knows best where his merchant colleagues like to bury their silver. This kind of strange knowledge cannot be realized by bandits and civilians. He took a group of soldiers to almost tore down the old mansion of a dead friend and merchant, and the Rus took out a large amount of leather, linen, and some extremely valuable Chen Mai. Some people have actually digged into the merchant's bedroom with shovel and axe, and a batch of heavy boxes were unearthed one after another.Prior to those excavations, Gould happily walked into the "military command post" of the Duke of Ross in Harald's home, and he offered a gift that was enough to make Otto faint.There is nothing to say, fifty boxes, preliminary estimate is five thousand pounds of silver coins.With the addition of those offered by Harald and excavated by the soldiers at the moment, Otto and Lurik were astonished that they had actually obtained seven thousand pounds of silver coins, which was the least amount of gold coins.A few years ago, a silver coin in Roseburg was extremely precious. Since Arik led his troops to looting Gotland and retrieved nearly a thousand pounds of silver coins at a time, the silver coins have become worthless. It's fine now, seven thousand pounds of silver has become the treasure of the Ross people.After a huge sum of money was smashed, Otto had no opinion at all, and many elites imagined that they could buy it after the huge sum of money was divided. Although Rurik was also taken aback, he turned around and realized that if all the money fell into the hands of the people, the economy of the Rus would not be messed up because of vicious inflation?Therefore, seven thousand pounds of silver coins and even the new money and seized goods that were later discovered must be firmly controlled by yourself!Fools and mortals have no right to get this huge sum of money. After all, it is the original capital of the rise of the Ross tribe!At this moment, Rurik really understood why the accumulation of primitive capital was full of blood and tears. But, who cares?As night fell, the Ross army and fighters of all ethnic groups became the new residents of Visby.Everyone lit a bonfire, brazenly roasting the newly slaughtered sheep and poultry, and feasting on the seized ale. Three long weeks have passed since the expedition to the present! If there is not enough seizure, the rations of the Ross army will be in a hurry.Fortunately, the dust settled and the Gotlanders were completely defeated.
