Chapter 560-News from the Enemy of Tavastia
To prepare for an expedition, this issue of food and grass, Rurik knew he had to think carefully.
The general medieval army must not be looting on the spot to solve the problem of supply? The truth is the truth, that is, what kind of food can be obtained depends entirely on the enemy's reserves. If one's own side is not well prepared, does it mean that the logistical issues are actually being manipulated by the enemy? In the unlikely event that they come up with a strong wall and clear the country, the army must not starve to death in a foreign land, or go home quickly.
At least the Balmerks don't pay much attention to logistical issues.
This is a matter of reason, the allies simply do not know that logistics issues are related to the success or failure of the army.
Lurik plans to reserve wheat for 1,000 people to eat for two months, and this is only wheat. He plans to reserve at the standard of two pounds per person per day, which means he must stock up to 120,000 pounds of oats.
In his plan, the Russ army set off from his hometown and arrived in Balmerk in three weeks at the earliest, and it would take another two weeks to land in Britain. Although there is also a chance to fish during the journey, it's just that no one can expect the surprise to solve the problem.
But wait a minute! Perhaps the army can attack Burgundy Island first and force the local fishermen to provide a batch of catches.
After some consideration, Rurik did not deny the possibility of midway robbery, but it was no longer a necessary means.
The best method is to store food, whether it is wheat or dried fish, or even dried young pine leaves to prevent scurvy. These should be stored for two months, so as to avoid the embarrassment of rapid food shortages when the army is in Britain. .
Although the wheat brought from various places last year exceeded 2 million pounds, the huge amount of wheat piled up like a mountain, and the cold and dry climate made people not worry about their winter storage problems. But this batch of wheat can only feed the Ross people for half a year, and ordinary people still have to go fishing.
Grain control in your own hands is equivalent to mastering the military initiative! Rurik can determine the total amount of wheat released to the market each month. Since there is wartime, it is no problem to directly order the hoarding of 200,000 pounds or more of oats.
Rurik naturally only considered his own problems. As for the Balmerks' allies, of course their logistical problems must be solved by themselves. Allies can of course follow the old tradition, bring a small amount of dried fish or even fish and eat raw fish in the middle, and then immediately plunder and replenish their stamina after landing. In this regard, the Ross people have no intention of helping them.
As the saying goes, even if it is an alliance, the logistics to help them is friendship rather than Rurik's duty.
But Bijuni, the commander of the Balmerk army in the future, this man became smart in actual combat. Since the Rurik brothers are stocking up on supplies for the expedition, they should also be prepared for unexpected events.
There is still a period of time before the sea ice melts. The Ross people have already begun to select the manpower for the expedition, and some people have begun to spontaneously fight training.
It was a sunny afternoon, the temperature was still low, but it was no longer aggressive.
In the past, the Balmerk travellers who were guest miners, they got a good and scientific meal and passively exercised their muscles in the mine. They all became stronger. Now this group of people is holding a brand-new steel sword and is officially receiving Jeflo's fighting training!
Regarding how to fight in battle, Rurik didn't worry that the Balmerks would make trouble.
They should receive better solo training on this basis.
The Balmerk travellers began to learn from the Frankish swordsmanship from Jeflo, the combined sword and shield fighting technique, but it was refreshing for everyone.
Rurik’s boys also received military training as expected, and some of the very young leaders were selected by Rurik to become members of the expeditionary army.
Expect these young children to fight? It's too hasty.
No one can deny their courage, it's just that this thin body, low head and childish face, this kind of fighter is really weak on the battlefield. The position of people like them is the auxiliary force! It just so happens that Rurik must carry a full-time shooting force in the battle, and he must also appoint important responsibilities.
This is all at war, and only those who are too innocent will pursue one-on-one against the enemy warriors in order to win.
The essence of war is to win victory with minimal losses at all means. A smart commander even avoids close combat. It is excellent to be able to kill the enemy without defending the enemy.
A group of boys were selected. They all carried steel-armed crossbows, each with a single-shoulder backpack on each shoulder, and up to ten crossbow arrows in the bag. What a burden is this? Three arrows weigh two pounds! Coupled with a crossbow weighing an average of twelve pounds, and a portable winding winch in two pounds, the boys of their group only carry an amazing weight in terms of weapons! Not to mention that they also need a small digging shovel and a multi-functional small dagger, as well as a hemp-rope backpack with food inside. A piece of these linen blankets should be circled and tied around the backpack.
In this respect, Rurik is really particular about it. He is pursuing the army's needs for outfits and materials in future generations.
Not only these children, but belts, burlap pockets on shoulders, burlap blankets, shovel and daggers, water bags made of stomach pouches and other objects that seem to be irrelevant to battle, each Roth who is about to go on the expedition must have a manpower set.
The vast number of Ross women also received direct tailoring orders from Rurik. He naturally took the entire tailoring workshop and immigrated to Verdegen in Ross, and instructed this man to take on important tasks-making military uniforms for the Russian army. The guide version, to let the women of Rose imitate this style.
Last year’s war, Lurik, really noticed that Northumbria’s army was striving to achieve uniform clothing, but in fact they could not fully achieve it.
The Northumbrian Army has a distinctly earthy orange hue, while the Balmerks are really unkempt and dressed in a variety of ways. Gorgeous clothing demonstrates the use of force to deter the enemy, enhances one's sense of glory and boosts morale. The most important thing is to distinguish the enemy from ourselves on the battlefield.
The Russian military uniform does not need to be changed. It is still a white robe that can be put on the body, with stitched interlaced blue strips on the chest and back.
Obviously this also requires refined tailors. According to Rurik's request, for characters like centurion characters, their shoulders should be sewn with epaulettes dyed red with cinnabar. As usual, the tops of their helmets have to be feathered so that they can be lightened by soldiers in battle. If it wasn't for thinking that it would be foolish to put a small flag in the back, Rurik would have done it. Of course there are flags. Since a flag team is going to be dispatched, the leader of this flag will of course not be his cousin Arik, and the flag officer also has professionals.
The subtle atmosphere enveloped the entire Roseburg.
The Duke is about to fight! Participants have the opportunity to gain wealth and glory!
Rurik set the date of the expedition to be close to June, and he would not go straight to Britain without the ice and snow melted. He has a lot of time to train the troops, including but not limited to training three hundred Balmerk travellers to be true and brave, in order to adapt to the Russ' combat methods that are different from ordinary Vikings.
Considering that Northumbria has a cavalry squad, Rurik has no doubt that the released Ernred will rebuild his cavalry. Since there is a decisive battle, the fighting between one's own and the enemy's cavalry on the battlefield is indispensable. It is estimated that with that guy's elm head, of course, he ordered the cavalry to charge according to traditional tactics. Maybe they didn't plan to break through the formation. Assassination with a spear was indispensable.
Therefore, the Ross people should prepare a batch of spears and sell them to the Balmerks. The coalition formed a "hedgehog formation", which should bring heavy casualties to the British cavalry in this time and space.
If there is sufficient preparation, there is no problem with armaments and logistics, and there is a food officer Paul, who has been a leader, this time really kills York, maybe Northumbria will directly destroy the country after a defeat!
Regardless of the so-called war, half of the plan is often nullified as soon as the end of the war begins.
Rurik was preparing for an expedition that could be called risky, crazy purpose, success, i.e. a huge harvest and a huge glorious expedition, but the East was in big trouble.
A group of sled teams suddenly rushed north to Roseburg, seeing how desperate they looked like roosters that had been defeated.
They are indeed defeated! They took a big roundabout around the icy coastline of the Gulf of Bothnia, and after receiving a batch of supplies at Fort Elon, they successfully arrived at Roseburg.
Kaihas came, he was caught off guard.
The old guy has a vicissitudes of life, his eyes full of sadness of defeat.
There are only a hundred men, women and children of his entourage, and this is already the last member of the "Lord of Salmon" tribe.
As soon as they arrived, a heavy news began to spread through their mouths.
It turned out that the Salmon Lord tribe of the Corvins, who had completely subordinated to the Rus, was attacked by a powerful enemy! They lost their mountain fort, the last male was almost killed in close combat, and the remaining people were forced to abandon their belongings and flee for their lives. There are squirrel skins and ferret skins that should have been tribute to Rose during the warm period, and now everything is over!
Rurik was overwhelmed by such a major incident. He couldn't think of any enemy that could attack Kejas.
Rülik urgently summoned the old guy who had escaped for his life, and because he was worried that this person would lose control of his emotions, he also brought Rumi with him.
Daughter Lumi has been working as a priest here in the Rus, and now it seems that her relationship with Rurik is closer.
Seeing his daughter, Kaihas felt grief coming from it. He thumped his chest and cried loudly. It took a long while for Rick to understand the reason for the crying.
"Your mountain fort! It was broken by the enemy. Your wife was killed by them?! Is there such a tragedy?"
Rurik tried to keep calm, but he couldn't.
Kaijas wiped another tear, "They did it..."
"Who are they."
"It's the Tavastias, they are here, they noticed us, and now they have occupied our territory. The leather stored in our mountain fortress is now robbed by them. And..."
"And then?" Rurik asked urgently.
"They didn't leave, they didn't want to leave because they occupied our territory. Now I need you... to fulfill the agreement."
"Promise! I will execute it! Tavastia people, I heard you say, I don't have to attack them, now they are looking for death!"
Rurik didn't hesitate to say this, his clenched fist seemed to squeeze the iron into powder.
He temporarily set up Kahas and the tribe who had successfully escaped, and then sent Rumi to comfort her poor father.
That night, Kahaas, who was in a stable mood, was invited to the conference hall on the first floor of the palace. He entered the Roseburg for the first time. While shocking the huge city, he was also full of joy for the future counterattack.
The servants of the "Eastern Land" of the Rus were massacred? ! Outrageous!
The news has spread throughout Roseburg. Although most people don't even know who the attacker is, the brothers have begun to say that the Duke will issue an order to send troops.
This is not an expedition, but to conquer the invaders, to regain the wealth that belongs to Ross that was stolen by the enemy.
The entire Roseburg has exactly the same atmosphere, that is, sending troops to kill the enemy for revenge.
In the Chamber of Rurik, the atmosphere of revenge was very strong, including the large armed Balmerks, and their group was also full of interest in a sudden war.
The elites of the Ross people are here, as are the heroes of Balmerk, Bijuni, and Duchess of Ostara Carlotta. Kejas can see the political significance of this at a glance.
Kehas accepted Rurik's request and explained what had happened to everyone in person. He was frightened, and his heart was filled with revenge, to the point that the description of the enemy was a little too jealous.
"They have a thousand people, and every soldier has an iron spear. They throw javelins and shoot arrows. They are also good at setting fires. Because they can't beat our fortresses, they set fire to them. We took advantage of the chaos and fled..."
In its description, the old hill fort of the gray squirrel tribe was occupied by the Tavastia expeditionary and then attacked the territory of Kaijas.
Rurik felt a little strange, "Your fortress should be very strong on the mound. Even if they set fire, is it really reasonable in this snowy world?"
"My lord, there are too many of them. They piled up wood to make thick smoke, and they lit some pine trees... Some people were choked to death by the thick smoke."
Rurik stared. He really knew that the heavy smoke in a fire was often more dangerous by the flames.
Rurik is still asking the key question: "They really have a thousand people?"
"It's true, I'm afraid there will be warriors in the future. As far as I know, the Tavastias hunt their prey everywhere, and they need a lot of wealth. We Corvins have been getting rid of them, and we didn't expect them to come. Up."
"It sounds like a battle of fate."
"Yes. They know that they must annihilate us if they want to **** the leather resources in the north. But these leathers belong to Ross, and we are Ross's servants. The Tavastias are humiliating Ross!"
Kejas's words are very temperamental to everyone, and now Biyuni speaks sideways, "Brother, your servant is attacked by the enemy, which means that we are also humiliating our Balmerks. I don't know what villain the Tavastians are. , Now I declare that I will take my brothers to help you fight."
Is that the new ally of the Rus? Wouldn't the Russ army be stronger in this way?
Kehas took this opportunity to add fuel and vinegar, "They also did an evil thing!"
"What's the matter?"
"The enemy destroyed our cemetery, and also destroyed Ross' summer camp. I understand that those invaders must be wiped out, otherwise Ross' fishermen will..."
Rurik heard that the cemetery was destroyed and stood up: "I heard that two Ross fishermen's children died on your side. Could it be that their cemetery was also destroyed?!"
Kaijas nodded hurriedly, "There are also the Ross warriors who have stayed with me this winter. They helped our daughter bred, and they are all our heroes. But these Ross heroes are all killed!"
"They are dead too? Damn it!"
"All the boats that were pulled ashore were taken by the enemy."
"Enough is enough." Rurik, who stood up, raised his hand to signal, and everyone else also stood up, with hatred in their eyes.
What Kejas said is the fact ~www.novelhall.com~ only deliberately said things miserably, such as describing brutal enemies like mad dogs biting the dead Ross soldiers' bodies, or even like vultures pecking their livers.
Insert a sentence, [\\mi\\mi\\read\\app\\\\] It’s really good, it’s worth installing, even Android and Apple phones support it!
The details of the facts are not important anymore. Rurik ordered on behalf of everyone, "It seems that before the expedition to Britain, we must first take the Tavastias. When the ice melts and the snow melts, our fleet rushes directly to the other side of the sea. Roth’s young people fight as much as possible, let the blood of the Tavastia invaders sacrifice Odin!"
People screamed, and the news spread immediately.
Now it is no longer a question of who is eligible to go to the battlefield, but the Rus people can rush out to attack it.
Theoretically, Rurik can send advance troops now, but wait a minute. If the enemy feels that the situation is unfavorable, it will be no good to flee.
In war, either annihilation war or an opportunity is created to fight annihilation war.
And this battle makes everything subtle.
Rurik was afraid that this battle would delay the expedition to Britain, and he was also worried that the enemy ran away after the army was assembled to prepare for the expedition.
This spring must come early, and the ice will melt in April to be sailable. Of course, land expedition is not as efficient as taking a ship, and the army must sail directly!
Now, Arik, who is eager for new combat exploits, has stepped forward. He led the organization of a fifty-man reconnaissance team. They ran on the sea ice in a sleigh, rushing directly to Oulu in the direction determined by Rurik’s geographical knowledge At the mouth of the river, he went deep into the robbed territory of the Salmon Lord tribe, revisited the old place to spy on the intruder, and then ordered his men to rush back to report the message in a reindeer sleigh...

Now, Arik, who is eager for new combat exploits, has stepped forward. He led the organization of a fifty-man reconnaissance team. They ran on the sea ice in a sleigh, rushing directly to Oulu in the direction determined by Rurik’s geographical knowledge At the mouth of the river, he went deep into the robbed territory of the Salmon Lord tribe, revisited the old place to spy on the intruder, and then ordered his men to rush back to report the message in a reindeer sleigh...

Chapter 560-News from the Enemy of TavastiaTo prepare for an expedition, this issue of food and grass, Rurik knew he had to think carefully.The general medieval army must not be looting on the spot to solve the problem of supply? The truth is the truth, that is, what kind of food can be obtained depends entirely on the enemy's reserves. If one's own side is not well prepared, does it mean that the logistical issues are actually being manipulated by the enemy? In the unlikely event that they come up with a strong wall and clear the country, the army must not starve to death in a foreign land, or go home quickly.At least the Balmerks don't pay much attention to logistical issues.This is a matter of reason, the allies simply do not know that logistics issues are related to the success or failure of the army.Lurik plans to reserve wheat for 1,000 people to eat for two months, and this is only wheat. He plans to reserve at the standard of two pounds per person per day, which means he must stock up to 120,000 pounds of oats.In his plan, the Russ army set off from his hometown and arrived in Balmerk in three weeks at the earliest, and it would take another two weeks to land in Britain. Although there is also a chance to fish during the journey, it's just that no one can expect the surprise to solve the problem.But wait a minute! Perhaps the army can attack Burgundy Island first and force the local fishermen to provide a batch of catches.After some consideration, Rurik did not deny the possibility of midway robbery, but it was no longer a necessary means.The best method is to store food, whether it is wheat or dried fish, or even dried young pine leaves to prevent scurvy. These should be stored for two months, so as to avoid the embarrassment of rapid food shortages when the army is in Britain. .Although the wheat brought from various places last year exceeded 2 million pounds, the huge amount of wheat piled up like a mountain, and the cold and dry climate made people not worry about their winter storage problems. But this batch of wheat can only feed the Ross people for half a year, and ordinary people still have to go fishing.Grain control in your own hands is equivalent to mastering the military initiative! Rurik can determine the total amount of wheat released to the market each month. Since there is wartime, it is no problem to directly order the hoarding of 200,000 pounds or more of oats.Rurik naturally only considered his own problems. As for the Balmerks' allies, of course their logistical problems must be solved by themselves. Allies can of course follow the old tradition, bring a small amount of dried fish or even fish and eat raw fish in the middle, and then immediately plunder and replenish their stamina after landing. In this regard, the Ross people have no intention of helping them.As the saying goes, even if it is an alliance, the logistics to help them is friendship rather than Rurik's duty.But Bijuni, the commander of the Balmerk army in the future, this man became smart in actual combat. Since the Rurik brothers are stocking up on supplies for the expedition, they should also be prepared for unexpected events.There is still a period of time before the sea ice melts. The Ross people have already begun to select the manpower for the expedition, and some people have begun to spontaneously fight training.It was a sunny afternoon, the temperature was still low, but it was no longer aggressive.In the past, the Balmerk travellers who were guest miners, they got a good and scientific meal and passively exercised their muscles in the mine. They all became stronger. Now this group of people is holding a brand-new steel sword and is officially receiving Jeflo's fighting training!Regarding how to fight in battle, Rurik didn't worry that the Balmerks would make trouble.They should receive better solo training on this basis.The Balmerk travellers began to learn from the Frankish swordsmanship from Jeflo, the combined sword and shield fighting technique, but it was refreshing for everyone.Rurik's boys also received military training as expected, and some of the very young leaders were selected by Rurik to become members of the expeditionary army.Expect these young children to fight? It's too hasty.No one can deny their courage, it's just that this thin body, low head and childish face, this kind of fighter is really weak on the battlefield. The position of people like them is the auxiliary force! It just so happens that Rurik must carry a full-time shooting force in the battle, and he must also appoint important responsibilities.This is all at war, and only those who are too innocent will pursue one-on-one against the enemy warriors in order to win.The essence of war is to win victory with minimal losses at all means. A smart commander even avoids close combat. It is excellent to be able to kill the enemy without defending the enemy.A group of boys were selected. They all carried steel-armed crossbows, each with a single-shoulder backpack on each shoulder, and up to ten crossbow arrows in the bag. What a burden is this? Three arrows weigh two pounds! Coupled with a crossbow weighing an average of twelve pounds, and a portable winding winch in two pounds, the boys of their group only carry an amazing weight in terms of weapons! Not to mention that they also need a small digging shovel and a multi-functional small dagger, as well as a hemp-rope backpack with food inside. A piece of these linen blankets should be circled and tied around the backpack.In this respect, Rurik is really particular about it. He is pursuing the army's needs for outfits and materials in future generations.Not only these children, but belts, burlap pockets on shoulders, burlap blankets, shovel and daggers, water bags made of stomach pouches and other objects that seem to be irrelevant to battle, each Roth who is about to go on the expedition must have a manpower set.The vast number of Ross women also received direct tailoring orders from Rurik. He naturally took the entire tailoring workshop and immigrated to Verdegen in Ross, and instructed this man to take on important tasks-making military uniforms for the Russian army. The guide version, to let the women of Rose imitate this style.Last year's war, Lurik, really noticed that Northumbria's army was striving to achieve uniform clothing, but in fact they could not fully achieve it.The Northumbrian Army has a distinctly earthy orange hue, while the Balmerks are really unkempt and dressed in a variety of ways. Gorgeous clothing demonstrates the use of force to deter the enemy, enhances one's sense of glory and boosts morale. The most important thing is to distinguish the enemy from ourselves on the battlefield.The Russian military uniform does not need to be changed. It is still a white robe that can be put on the body, with stitched interlaced blue strips on the chest and back.Obviously this also requires refined tailors. According to Rurik's request, for characters like centurion characters, their shoulders should be sewn with epaulettes dyed red with cinnabar. As usual, the tops of their helmets have to be feathered so that they can be lightened by soldiers in battle. If it wasn't for thinking that it would be foolish to put a small flag in the back, Rurik would have done it. Of course there are flags. Since a flag team is going to be dispatched, the leader of this flag will of course not be his cousin Arik, and the flag officer also has professionals.The subtle atmosphere enveloped the entire Roseburg.The Duke is about to fight! Participants have the opportunity to gain wealth and glory!Rurik set the date of the expedition to be close to June, and he would not go straight to Britain without the ice and snow melted. He has a lot of time to train the troops, including but not limited to training three hundred Balmerk travellers to be true and brave, in order to adapt to the Russ' combat methods that are different from ordinary Vikings.Considering that Northumbria has a cavalry squad, Rurik has no doubt that the released Ernred will rebuild his cavalry. Since there is a decisive battle, the fighting between one's own and the enemy's cavalry on the battlefield is indispensable. It is estimated that with that guy's elm head, of course, he ordered the cavalry to charge according to traditional tactics. Maybe they didn't plan to break through the formation. Assassination with a spear was indispensable.Therefore, the Ross people should prepare a batch of spears and sell them to the Balmerks. The coalition formed a "hedgehog formation", which should bring heavy casualties to the British cavalry in this time and space.If there is sufficient preparation, there is no problem with armaments and logistics, and there is a food officer Paul, who has been a leader, this time really kills York, maybe Northumbria will directly destroy the country after a defeat!Regardless of the so-called war, half of the plan is often nullified as soon as the end of the war begins.Rurik was preparing for an expedition that could be called risky, crazy purpose, success, i.e. a huge harvest and a huge glorious expedition, but the East was in big trouble.A group of sled teams suddenly rushed north to Roseburg, seeing how desperate they looked like roosters that had been defeated.They are indeed defeated! They took a big roundabout around the icy coastline of the Gulf of Bothnia, and after receiving a batch of supplies at Fort Elon, they successfully arrived at Roseburg.Kaihas came, he was caught off guard.The old guy has a vicissitudes of life, his eyes full of sadness of defeat.There are only a hundred men, women and children of his entourage, and this is already the last member of the "Lord of Salmon" tribe.As soon as they arrived, a heavy news began to spread through their mouths.It turned out that the Salmon Lord tribe of the Corvins, who had completely subordinated to the Rus, was attacked by a powerful enemy! They lost their mountain fort, the last male was almost killed in close combat, and the remaining people were forced to abandon their belongings and flee for their lives. There are squirrel skins and ferret skins that should have been tribute to Rose during the warm period, and now everything is over!Rurik was overwhelmed by such a major incident. He couldn't think of any enemy that could attack Kejas.Rlik urgently summoned the old guy who had escaped for his life, and because he was worried that this person would lose control of his emotions, he also brought Rumi with him.Daughter Lumi has been working as a priest here in the Rus, and now it seems that her relationship with Rurik is closer.Seeing his daughter, Kaihas felt grief coming from it. He thumped his chest and cried loudly. It took a long while for Rick to understand the reason for the crying."Your mountain fort! It was broken by the enemy. Your wife was killed by them?! Is there such a tragedy?"Rurik tried to keep calm, but he couldn't.Kaijas wiped another tear, "They did it...""Who are they.""It's the Tavastias, they are here, they noticed us, and now they have occupied our territory. The leather stored in our mountain fortress is now robbed by them. And...""And then?" Rurik asked urgently."They didn't leave, they didn't want to leave because they occupied our territory. Now I need you... to fulfill the agreement.""Promise! I will execute it! Tavastia people, I heard you say, I don't have to attack them, now they are looking for death!"Rurik didn't hesitate to say this, his clenched fist seemed to squeeze the iron into powder.He temporarily set up Kahas and the tribe who had successfully escaped, and then sent Rumi to comfort her poor father.That night, Kahaas, who was in a stable mood, was invited to the conference hall on the first floor of the palace. He entered the Roseburg for the first time. While shocking the huge city, he was also full of joy for the future counterattack.The servants of the "Eastern Land" of the Rus were massacred? ! Outrageous!The news has spread throughout Roseburg. Although most people don't even know who the attacker is, the brothers have begun to say that the Duke will issue an order to send troops.This is not an expedition, but to conquer the invaders, to regain the wealth that belongs to Ross that was stolen by the enemy.The entire Roseburg has exactly the same atmosphere, that is, sending troops to kill the enemy for revenge.In the Chamber of Rurik, the atmosphere of revenge was very strong, including the large armed Balmerks, and their group was also full of interest in a sudden war.The elites of the Ross people are here, as are the heroes of Balmerk, Bijuni, and Duchess of Ostara Carlotta. Kejas can see the political significance of this at a glance.Kehas accepted Rurik's request and explained what had happened to everyone in person. He was frightened, and his heart was filled with revenge, to the point that the description of the enemy was a little too jealous."They have a thousand people, and every soldier has an iron spear. They throw javelins and shoot arrows. They are also good at setting fires. Because they can't beat our fortresses, they set fire to them. We took advantage of the chaos and fled..."In its description, the old hill fort of the gray squirrel tribe was occupied by the Tavastia expeditionary and then attacked the territory of Kaijas.Rurik felt a little strange, "Your fortress should be very strong on the mound. Even if they set fire, is it really reasonable in this snowy world?""My lord, there are too many of them. They piled up wood to make thick smoke, and they lit some pine trees... Some people were choked to death by the thick smoke."Rurik stared. He really knew that the heavy smoke in a fire was often more dangerous by the flames.Rurik is still asking the key question: "They really have a thousand people?""It's true, I'm afraid there will be warriors in the future. As far as I know, the Tavastias hunt their prey everywhere, and they need a lot of wealth. We Corvins have been getting rid of them, and we didn't expect them to come. Up.""It sounds like a battle of fate.""Yes. They know that they must annihilate us if they want to **** the leather resources in the north. But these leathers belong to Ross, and we are Ross's servants. The Tavastias are humiliating Ross!"Kejas's words are very temperamental to everyone, and now Biyuni speaks sideways, "Brother, your servant is attacked by the enemy, which means that we are also humiliating our Balmerks. I don't know what villain the Tavastians are. , Now I declare that I will take my brothers to help you fight."Is that the new ally of the Rus? Wouldn't the Russ army be stronger in this way?Kehas took this opportunity to add fuel and vinegar, "They also did an evil thing!""What's the matter?""The enemy destroyed our cemetery, and also destroyed Ross' summer camp. I understand that those invaders must be wiped out, otherwise Ross' fishermen will..."Rurik heard that the cemetery was destroyed and stood up: "I heard that two Ross fishermen's children died on your side. Could it be that their cemetery was also destroyed?!"Kaijas nodded hurriedly, "There are also the Ross warriors who have stayed with me this winter. They helped our daughter bred, and they are all our heroes. But these Ross heroes are all killed!""They are dead too? Damn it!""All the boats that were pulled ashore were taken by the enemy.""Enough is enough." Rurik, who stood up, raised his hand to signal, and everyone else also stood up, with hatred in their eyes.What Kejas said is the fact ~www.novelhall.com~ only deliberately said things miserably, such as describing brutal enemies like mad dogs biting the dead Ross soldiers' bodies, or even like vultures pecking their livers.Insert a sentence, \\mi\\mi\\read\\app\\\\ It's really good, it's worth installing, even Android and Apple phones support it!The details of the facts are not important anymore. Rurik ordered on behalf of everyone, "It seems that before the expedition to Britain, we must first take the Tavastias. When the ice melts and the snow melts, our fleet rushes directly to the other side of the sea. Roth's young people fight as much as possible, let the blood of the Tavastia invaders sacrifice Odin!"People screamed, and the news spread immediately.Now it is no longer a question of who is eligible to go to the battlefield, but the Rus people can rush out to attack it.Theoretically, Rurik can send advance troops now, but wait a minute. If the enemy feels that the situation is unfavorable, it will be no good to flee.In war, either annihilation war or an opportunity is created to fight annihilation war.And this battle makes everything subtle.Rurik was afraid that this battle would delay the expedition to Britain, and he was also worried that the enemy ran away after the army was assembled to prepare for the expedition.This spring must come early, and the ice will melt in April to be sailable. Of course, land expedition is not as efficient as taking a ship, and the army must sail directly!Now, Arik, who is eager for new combat exploits, has stepped forward.
