A strange team appeared.

There were about three hundred of them, each draped in thick leather, with woolen caps on their heads and gloves on their hands. Under the leather jacket is another layer of leather jacket, and the belt is tied with an axe and dagger on it.

They all carried brown burlap backpacks on their backs, stuffed with a pile of wheat and dried meat, and even small earthenware pots and spoons for cooking.

The linen cloth used to build the tent was rolled up and tied to the top of the backpack. Their proud swords were also hung on their backpacks, and many people also carried wooden crossbows and more than 30 light arrows.

Their weight is already huge, so everyone still carries a dagger-bound whistle stick as a marching stick.

Such a costume is considered a hunter? It is not an exaggeration to say that they are an expeditionary force.

This group of people have huge black eyes, which of course are not eyes, but eye-protective sunglasses.

Such kind of thing really looked at the old Eric family who came from afar.

He had no idea that the Russ hunting were so particular. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that they have strong combat effectiveness.

A big bear is probably equivalent to the fighting power of many brave fighters.

When the old Eric was exploring the east, he came across a group of people (actually Mrs. Krivić) hunting bears. Those guys were holding iron spears, and more than twenty people had spent a lot of energy before they stabbed a bear.

He also saw that the violent bear slapped a hunter to death.

Those guys need to buy salt, and they happen to be willing to sell a batch of salt, but they can only sell leather if they can't get the silver.

In the Danish area, the local bears were killed a long time ago. The bear is the so-called power symbol, and old Eric knows the preferences of those Danish lords.

The lords are all beautiful, and it is not proud to have many wives and concubines. They need gold and silver utensils to enrich their dining table, and the heads of beasts are used as decorations in the house.

Thinking of the bear head on the wall of the mansion of Chief Ross, and this extremely powerful hunting army, he can think of the end of the bear.

This year the "North Hunter" of the Ross people is of the ** type. Hunting is part of the severe winter activities, and it has nothing to do with the hymn of courage.

The hunters are for the benefit, and the Lurik is for the resources, and the servants of the deer keepers, their task is to drive the reindeer to the northern winter pasture, at least the reindeer ignores the severe cold of the Arctic.

A huge reindeer sled team was organized, and the sled was all docile does. Those seized ponies with extremely long manes are not in their category. They are not extremely cold-resistant livestock, and Rurik took a fancy to the pile of extremely long manes on the horse’s neck.

Compared to oiled hemp rope bowstrings, horsehair is obviously a more reliable material. Those horses were shorn horribly, and in exchange they are now being served with good food and drink. By next spring, all these horses will be sent to Shilla Fort to become the driving force for plowing the land.

More than a hundred reindeer sleighs are waiting for Duke Ross's order to start.

Otto himself was not in this trip, and he really didn't need to go out in person anymore.

In the past few years, Otto has been aging rapidly, and he cannot accept the old, and the great victory of the war of revenge makes him feel that his life has been fulfilled.

A great warrior no longer wants to be an ice and snow warrior. He is more willing to guard this thriving community in his hometown of Roseburg.

Rurik has a heavy responsibility, but no one doubts his leadership.

There are as many as four hundred people going to Elronburg. In addition to a group of hunters, there are also a group of permanent immigrants. Most of them are captured women. This trip is to go to Fort Elon to meet their new husbands who have settled permanently.

A large amount of wheat and hay are piled on the sledge. It is food for reindeer and people, especially wheat. Lulik needs to give lumberjacks enough food to withstand the possible loss of five thousand calories a day.

"Brothers! Let's go!"

With an order from Rurik, the army, under the eager anticipation of the money-counters, sat on a sledge into the frozen sea that was blown smooth and shiny by the wind. They marched through the ice field, and a group of dark people gradually left the Roseburg. The fjord is hidden by white mounds of pine forests.

Waiting for the Ross people is a three-day winter march. Compared with the difficult trek before, the well-trained reindeer helped everyone save too much consumption.

They only need to feed the reindeer, and then more than a dozen people huddled in the sleigh to report to the group to keep warm.

The cold wind had no effect on Rurik, because his sleigh had built a leather tent.

He brought only one woman with him on this trip, a young Seporava like him.

She is the daughter of the "Governor" of Fort Elon, an out-and-out scientific scholar.

As a big man with a lot of women, sometimes Rurik would think that he would dote on a few and neglect others.

The marriage with Sepolawa was purposeful, and it was precisely a measure to control the Kewen people. This trip only takes her, and the time in the future is to be alone with her, which is to increase feelings and strengthen the control over the scientific people.

Sepolawa, she naturally stuck to her man, her head sinking in her hood.

"This way, your father will be very happy."

The girl hummed.

"You grow up quickly. Your brother will be the governor of Elronburg, and our future child will be the lord of Elronburg. Listen, that's the best mine, and I must give it to my son."

Sepolawa raised her head suddenly, stared at Rurik's face and then smiled like a flower.

Rurik liked her face very much, and to be honest, he also liked Lumia's face better. After all, they all have North Asian ancestry, and their faces and body shapes are closer to those of the East. Rurik likes this aesthetic.

Of course, like Carlotta and Ella, the two dolls themselves like it very much. As for sister-in-law, Aslaqi, she is like a legendary fairy princess.

Rurik, his masculine power was like the golden fluff that began to thicken on his upper lip and chin, and he began to awaken!

The army marched day and night, and many people were dozing on the sleigh, but the reindeer kept advancing under the urging of the whip.

Sometimes wild reindeer dare to continue running for 50 kilometers while avoiding wolves. They have such amazing endurance, even the damage to the body is great.

Rurik ordered that all the reindeer eat a batch of oats in addition to feeding the prepared hay.

The plan was to arrive at Elronburg in three days, and everything was under Rurik's control.

They are advancing on the slippery ice field, even at a speed comparable to that of a ship!

Elon Orava Fort is at the mouth of the second largest river on the northern coast of the Gulf, and it is indeed a recognizable location geographically.

Now, Fort Elon in the ice and snow, she is a fortress standing in the snow!

There are obviously a group of ships on the shore of the ice-bound pier, and a huge "ice sculpture" stands beside it.

That is the largest squirrel-cage winch crane of the Russ, and the largest machinery currently owned by the Russ. What Rurik can imagine is that this machine has done a great job by dragging the ship ashore.

The other part of the ice-bound fortress is fiery. It is adjacent to the glacier and its ground is black.

The chimneys are emitting heavy smoke, a group of people are moving, and they are clearly at work.

Sepolawa on the sled saw all this clearly, and she was so excited that she was shaking all over.

"I'll see your father soon."

"And my brother." Saiporava exclaimed excitedly.

Her laughter was sweet, and Rurik smiled heartily.

To tell the truth, the army marched along the coastline's ice for three full days and nights, and the current short day is coming to an end again.

Sitting on the sleigh, Rurik was busy rushing, he often curled up into a ball, as if his whole body was rusty.

He needs to walk around, his guard mercenaries, and those ruthless people who are eager to hunt bears, are eager to arrive at Elronburg to rest.

"I will order it soon. I can take a good sauna and get a good night's sleep. I'll talk about what I need to cultivate for a day."

"Okay, I'll be with you." Sepolawa continued to pull Rurik's arm. She was still ignorant of marriage. It seemed that she was just living with people close to her, and then gave birth to a bunch of children. Have a peaceful and safe day. At this moment, she did not hesitate to regard Rurik as her elder brother, and hoped that this intimate relationship would become eternal, and she yearned for happiness alone.

"Also, the army has to rest well before it has the energy to hunt bears. Haha, this time I have to try the power of the torsion slingshot."

How to kill a chicken with a sledge-knife? The steel arm crossbow is already a bear hunting artifact, and the powerful shoulder-shaped piercing arrows have turned any hard leather armor into waste, and the polar bear leather is what it is.

But Rurik wanted to try sniping.

The so-called reindeer is pulling a sleigh carrying a torsion slingshot, and seeing the bear from a distance on the snowy field is to adjust the azimuth angle, shooting angle, and aim and shoot.

In this era, the northern European region near the Arctic Ocean is called the Pure Land of Bliss. Lumia and other deer breeders have introduced them. These ice nomads, they all walk around when they see bears.

Rurik was sure that the only people who dared to hunt bears on a large scale were the Rus.

A blue-and-white flag was flying on Rurik's sleigh. People moving around Elronburg had long noticed that a group of dark objects were approaching. They were first instinctively vigilant, and then turned into joy and ecstasy.

"Governor" Mezzasta led a large group of people out of the thick gate, and the entire Elronburg almost moved out, standing on the ice with open arms to welcome the distinguished guests from afar!

At this moment, there were still a little stiff three people standing beside Mezzasta.

They are not Ross people, let alone Kewen people.

The three of them came from the west of the peninsula mountain range. They were distinguished guests who came from afar and accepted the invitation of Rurik!

One of them is Modgen, he is a messenger, and the high and low people around him are the noble ones.

Rurik’s sled was the most publicized, and he was also the first to get off the sled.

Sepolawa saw her father, she didn't care about any manners, and ran directly and threw herself into his father's arms.

Rurik also walked forward with a self-confident smallness, accompanied by a kind of guard. After getting up again, the Everbright hunters ran arrogantly towards Fort Elon with their whistles.

"I'm here, Metzasta. It seems that Elronburg's situation is very good. This time the blacksmith is also here, and our iron smelting will be better..."

Rurik still had a lot to say, but he keenly saw two very familiar faces.

He knew Modgen, the brave Norwegian explorer, but there were two people beside him.

"Who are they? Metzasta, Modgen! Are they guests?"

The tall, bald, and beard young man walked forward holding the hilt of the sword, and Jevlo and others naturally formed a wall to guard their master Rurik.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not an enemy." The man gestured, and a short boy hurried over.

The man clutched his heart and bowed slightly and saluted: "You must be Rurik. Modigan has already informed our leader. I said Biyuni, and my brother Frokki is next to me. We said that the Balmerks came to your territory only to do business."

Modigan hurriedly interrupted, "My lord, they are the sons of the leader. Our leader is very interested in the long-term trade with Rose! Our Lord Biyuni is here, and it is enough to show our sincerity."

At this moment Rurik believed them very much, and even extremely happy to see these Norwegians from Narvik. The distance between the two parties is very long. It is impossible for both the present and the future to have conflicts. Cooperation between the two parties is a win-win situation.

In other words, when it comes to who is the most aggressive on both sides, Rurik does not dare to expect the so-called peace-loving people of Balmerks, but Rurik knows that Narvik is a rare ice-free port in northern Europe facing the Atlantic Ocean, so he can only go deep with them. Cooperation, even after the mighty Rus conquer there. Then, the Ross people have the opportunity to conquer Greenland, Iceland, and even discover the American continent.

That’s right, the boy’s name is Froggy. Why is this name so familiar? The more he thought about it, the more Rurik looked at the boy who was taller than himself.

Can't think of how a young boy is also bald? Is it natural, or does their brother like it?

There are some brown marks on the boy's forehead. Is this a tattoo? But it's always a little strange.

Rurik's gaze aroused the anger of young Frocky, "Are you provoking? Ross man, I want to fight with you, let you **** power."

"Fight?" Rurik twisted his nose. "I pay attention to the tattoo on your forehead."

"Do you think my forehead is beautiful?" The boy seemed to sigh with a sigh, "Aren't you mocking me."

"It doesn't matter, everyone can choose the tattoo they like, but your tattoo is like a bird."

"You actually saw this!" The boy straightened his chest. "This is inborn. Odin had a raven tattooed on my forehead. Our priest said that the raven flew into the distant sea. In the unknown world, I will conquer far away places and become the new territory of the tribe. I am Ravenfrocky!"

"Oh? It seems that Odin has blessed you too. But I am Odin's heir, and we Ross are protected by God. Then we will fight and use our way to see who is the warrior favored by God."

Rurik was about to stretch his muscles and bones, and he was not worthy of anyone with a similar posture when he was fighting. What's more, now he has a new reason, that is, to prove to the people present that Odin loves him even more.

But the result of the fight soon came to an end.

Rurik is already the supreme of the Duchy of Ross~www.novelhall.com~ The people need a witty duke, and even more a combat master.

As for the Balmerks, the game between boys is fighting, and everyone is considered a good brother after a fight.

Although very strange, the first major event that Rurik arrived at Elronburg was a fight. Rurik easily knocked Frocky, who was unruly and ethical and full of fists, on the snow, and then he clamped his neck with his legs and hugged one of his arms, making Frocky feel uncomfortable. It was difficult to move and breathe and had to beg for mercy.

When the "little prince" of the Balmerks had such a first encounter, Frocky confessed his defeat, and then stood up facelessly and said, "It seems that what Modgen said is true. The little prince of the Ross people The leader is a brave warrior, and I want to be your brother."

Seeing that the young Frocky is so frank, Rurik doesn’t want to refuse anything. This cub is reckless and straightforward to make friends with this person. "Okay, we do business. If you want, we Ross people are willing to form an alliance with you Balmerks." !"

What can Biyunni say, he welcomes this urgently to be concluded agreement with a wild laugh. Because they came by trekking through mountains and rivers, what they hope most is to form an alliance. Unexpectedly, the younger brother's plan to "get a beating" was completed.
