, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!
When interested people such as the old Klavasen and his blacksmiths discuss these crazy events that are happening in their old council, they all slap their thighs and bluntly said that the so-called Rurik going to Balmerk, of course, is not simply incorporating the locals. But to organize an army far beyond the expedition to Gotland. Because that slogan is by no means just a slogan, Rurik has made his ambition extremely clear.
It was also mentioned that at a certain meeting the year before, if it were not for the accident of last year, the Principality of Russ had spent the entire year replenishing its strength.
The purpose of the planned troop was to carry out an expedition this year.
Now, the blacksmiths are willing to believe that an expedition against the Danes is about to begin, and they also believe that the army will take the fleet to kill the wheat-rich Britain.
In short, there are many possibilities, and everyone can't reach a clear result after discussing it for a long time.
But the oppressive feeling of war is acting on their deep weapon manufacturing frontline blacksmiths. At the beginning of 834 AD, the entire Principality was struggling to make weapons. If the person holding a sword and a spear is regarded as a warrior, the Duchy of Ross can arm 10,000 people in a year!
Several of their own old blacksmiths and elders of the traditional Ross iron clan, they completely underestimated Rurik's requirements for fierce warriors.
Because the new generation of Ross warriors are still a group of babies who are good at crying, so thriving teenagers and young and strong men, their large number of battle losses are still shocking. The Principality of Ross must adapt to the current era and adopt a strategy of elite soldiers, and must arm the Warriors First and Second Banners and the Merlaren Banners into heavy infantry in various senses.
In order to facilitate internal coordination, the Melaren Banner team should be renamed the Warriors Third Banner, and when recruited from Balmerk to the new Jianyong, it can become the Warriors Fourth Banner.
They are soldiers as soldiers, fishermen, herders, growers, loggers, miners, etc. in peacetime. They are militias whose militia strength far exceeds the general meaning. The Russ Principality basically implements an almost all-round strategy based on the old tradition.
As for the real standing soldiers, of course, there are also mercenary troops that have swelled to nearly three hundred people around Rülik.
Perhaps it is more appropriate to call this group of people as the Guards.
In the real Rome, the guards were always good at turning back because of greed, but the guards were extremely important to the emperor.
Many of them are already married. As their golden lord and monarch, Rurik naturally treats (monitors) their family members kindly. In particular, focus on Yevlo's wife, Hermi from Suomi, to set a benchmark for other mercenaries.
Days are getting longer and longer, and since Roseburg has been desperately producing artifacts related to weapons and tools, the talk about Rose's new expedition has also become more and more popular.
People are waiting for Rurik to release a realistic statement, but after waiting for almost a month, still nothing happens?
It wasn't until early February, not far from the snow melt crisis, that Rurik finally issued a major order-a meeting.
Because the Rose Dumas building that looks like a huge traditional Viking longhouse is about to be completed, although it is still quite rudimentary, it is appropriate as an open conference hall.
So, in the newly built huge parliamentary court, will Rurik really announce a plan for an expedition?
That must be true, otherwise the whole of Rose would not be able to make steel weapons and battleships desperately.
It was a sunny morning, and the Ross Dumas with a stone foundation was finally completed.
There is also a small empty field at the door of this traditional long house. Thousands of people gathered here to participate in the inauguration ceremony of Ross Dumas.
After all, it is a large-scale public building, and it is more sacred. The gilded statue of Odin in the temple was moved out, and Lumia put on a antler helmet to organize a ceremony.
A bucket of deer's blood was deliberately spilled on the ground in front of Ross Duma's door to make the building divine.
Rurik stood in the crowd, and in the end he was the first to step into the building.
He climbed the wooden ladder, pushed open the closed wooden door, and subconsciously raised his head to stare at the hanging plaque.
A piece of carbonized oak board nailed with bronze flakes, put it together to become the word RUSDUMA.
The wooden door opened wide, and a strong smell of turpentine came to his face.
Rurik subconsciously covered his mouth. He wanted to vomit, but he still endured the discomfort and walked in.
For many people, the smell of rosin is actually a fragrance, and those who are good at loggers do not shy away from this.
Just like the old Otto and the old elites of Ross, they dressed in colorful costumes and stepped into this new sanctuary after being blessed by the gods.
Odin represents justice and majesty, and the longhouse Ros Dumar will implement this justice and majesty.
"It's a bit empty inside." Old Otto looked left and right, and then yelled that the rosin was still too strong.
Rurik raised his head and pointed with his finger: "Those bronze lampholders, can there be anointing in them?"
Then some entourage came with a kind of fire, and in a short while the wall was brightly lit.
After a while, someone untied the chains of the chandelier, and the lights with 64 lamp holders arranged in a radial pattern were put down, which brought the ultimate light to the entire longhouse.
However, in Rurik's view, a 40-watt energy-saving lamp can be more reliable than these hot things. Based on this era, we should not pursue more.
Otto clapped his hands and cheered: "I see three chandeliers here! The work of the blacksmith and carpenter is so good! Why didn't I think of doing this before?"
The old Klavasen and his old buddies are also here, and everyone is very happy to be praised by the old duke.
Rurik pinched his waist: "Isn't it because we were poor before? This huge chamber needs to be further renovated. I financed the construction of it. It is the property of the duke family."
Everyone agrees with this.
He said publicly: "However, we are here to discuss Rose's future path. That's okay! I think today is the right time! You have long realized that we Rose will choose a new goal and chop up the axe. "
The people who had been whispering for a long time immediately began to talk loudly. Some people simply couldn't bear to shout with interest: "My lord Duke, just tell you! Are you hitting the Danes? My big axe is waiting to drink blood!"
Someone spoke so brazenly, and hundreds of people present were extremely excited, as they opened their coats to reveal their bursting muscles, eager to fight.
Old Otto was also immersed in pleasure, and he opened his arms to signal everyone to be quiet.
After all, he has been an old leader for more than ten years, and Otto still has this strong right to speak.
The crowd calmed down, and Otto asked again: "Don't dare anymore. Come on, who are we going to beat? Could it really be Denmark?"
Denmark? Do not! It is not appropriate to intervene in Denmark now, or really attacking Danish Rus will not bring real benefits.
He has made clear public opinion, and the brothers are all rumors about attacking the Danish forces. But my plan is not to beat them up.
Rurik turned around, called out the names of some senior old guys one by one, and then recruited the flag captains of the various flag teams to Rose Dumar.
There is even a woman, Hermi, Jeflo's already pregnant wife.
Why does an ordinary woman come to the sacred place of discussion of the Ross people? Wait a minute, is the Lord Duke still interested in the East?
What enemy can there be in the East? Didn’t all the guys there submit?
In the afternoon, Ross Dumari gathered more than forty people. The strong man sitting everywhere exuding a strong body odor, fortunately, the rosin breath was more aggressive and dispelled the discomfort.
Helmi sits tremblingly next to her husband Jeflo. How can she never think of herself as an ordinary woman, how can she be qualified to participate here?
Or is it that women are also eligible to participate in men’s councils?
She seems to be a small character, everyone's eyes are still fixed on the current Duke Rurik who is still selling off.
"Just say it, son! Do you want your father to continue to wait?" Otto was the most senior, and he expressed dissatisfaction on behalf of the old guys.
Rurik looked around again, no longer intending to talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "Attack who? Karelia!"
As soon as the voice fell, all the people who were about to cheer were dumb.
Karelia, what is that thing?
People have different opinions, until Otto suddenly realized: "You said Karelia. Rurik, those guys really exist? Are those guys really going to focus on fighting? We have been to Novgorod every year for decades, too. I don’t know if there are Karelians on the edge of the Great Lake. Even if you keep saying that they exist, they are still a threat."
Rurik was also surprised by his father's reaction: "Dad! Not only do Karelians exist, they also make other Finns jealous."
"Finnish? The Suomi and Tavastia are all surrendered to us?"
"That's right. But Karelia is very strong. I believe that what Chief Suomi said is true, so I invited Hermi. She is the only daughter of Chief Suomi, and he must know a lot."
"Well, let this woman speak. I hope she has learned Gnostic."
Therefore, poor Hermi was pushed out, facing a group of stubborn Varanga, she felt that she was the rabbit among the wolves, pitiful and helpless.
Yes, even her husband Jevlo is urging her to explain what Karelia is.
Hermi, she finally stammered and mumbled...
Although she was born in a lake in southern Finland, almost all of her understanding of the Karelian neighbors in the West comes from her people.
Hermi's Gnostic language is still blunt, so he subconsciously uses some important vocabulary context chapters.
The Karelians in her mouth are rebellious and tenacious, and they even claim that they have a large population, but these words are repeated over and over.
"Are these the only ones?" Old Otto blew his beard and stared.
Hermi shrank into a ball trembling, her mouth trembling, and she couldn't say anything.
"Dad, you scared her." Rurik poked his head a little, then turned his head: "Hermi, can you provide more details?"
Hermi looked up after a while, as if she was about to say something, but in the end she didn't speak, and her face was covered by scattered black hair.
This is not what she wants to hide, but the daughter of a well-protected Suomi leader. How does she know the details about the Karelians?
Seeing that there was not much information to ask, Rurik softly throated and did not intend to make any more questions.
He raised his head and said: "Although the information is very limited, we can at least ascertain two facts. There are many Karelians, and we need to mobilize many people to defeat them."
But this is almost knowingly asked. The sons of some old guys participated in the war to conquer the Eastern Land last year. The first news they learned about the Karelians was nothing more than the "many and strong" people from Suomi. Discourse.
Whether it was Tavastia or Suomi, the Ross army quickly defeated them.
Following this line of thinking, some people stood up and explained their views: "Rurik, do you place too much emphasis on the Karelians? If they are strong enough, they should defeat the others around them. However, our fishing boat has never been with them. The canoe encountered directly, and all the boats that saw us hurriedly fled. If they are strong enough, they should defeat the other Finns. The fact is that we are the conquerors of Finland."
Rurik motioned to the old man to sit down, and in all fairness he certainly felt that this view was justified.
However, as the commander-in-chief, Rurik intends to develop steadily and steadily, especially when it comes to war.
The atmosphere in the long room is already very obvious. The rebellious men regard the new enemy Karelia as an ant, an enemy that can be easily defeated.
I'm afraid their attitude is completely correct, but Rurik still doesn't want to take risks, even if this caution may be too much.
"I know." He said, "You think I am too cautious! Yes, I am cautious! We just want to treat the Karelians as Danes, we must conquer them. Only by conquering them can Shilla Fort Completely safe. Only by conquering them can we Roth immigrants have a stable living space."
Arik's murderous aura was overflowing with his pouting mouth. He yelled, "Brother, you are too cautious. Why don't you give me the job. I took five hundred brothers and rowed over, and the enemy you were worried about will soon perish." "
The cousin’s snatching made Rurik a lot of chagrin. He glared and shouted, “I’m the Duke! Captain of the First Banner, you must accept my arrangement! If you attack like before, you Ashamed to be my brother!"
Pay attention to the public account: Book Friends Base Camp pays attention to cash and coins!
Arik was stunned by such a roar, not only him, but everyone including Otto was taken aback.
Otto stroked his beard subconsciously again, his head couldn't help but remember that this stinky boy was holding his sword to protect Lumia many years ago.
"Brave enough, it's my son." Otto felt very happy.
Arik's snatching words were really meaningless. Even though it was a meeting hall, everyone present did not dare to say that they were as wise as Rurik, so they shut up and listened.
An atmosphere was overwhelmed, and Liu Lix simply opened the skylight to speak bright words, expounding his terrorist strategy.
He stood up and drew his dagger, then plunged deeply into the wooden floor in front of him, and then suddenly sat down cross-legged.
"War! It is not a fight between warriors! War determines the life and death of everyone on both sides of the war. This is a life and death war. If Karelia does not die, it is like a spear hitting our throat all the time! You can say that they are weak. , But they have the possibility of launching a sneak attack and causing us to bleed heavily.
Either do not fight or fight annihilation. This time, I took at least a thousand soldiers to the east. Not only this army, but also the army of allies of Suomi. I also want to organize a new army from Novgorod! We must destroy Karelia in one battle. I have no enemies with them, but they are in the north of Shilla Fort. They either surrender and offer tributes and women, or they all die! "
A little bear leaked its fangs, and people couldn't help being afraid of Rurik's aura.
It is said that it is the Chamber of Deputies, and the final decision is made by Rurik himself.
It is another war of annihilation. Although it is certainly not as exciting as the attack on the Jutland Peninsula in Denmark, it is also a war that attracts everyone's attention.
Someone screamed: "Then fight! Friends, after all, Karelia threatens our territory, and there is no harm in destroying them."
"Okay, I also support the war. It would be great if they could seize a lot of leather from them~www.novelhall.com~ Since they claim to be very strong, let our soldiers take a look. I bet it's still us The warriors are really brave."
...
Everyone's attitude is already very obvious. Since Duke Rurik is determined to send a large army to conquer, even if this battle gives people a sword to kill the mouse's tail, the brothers can just follow the orders.
Otto promptly raised his last question: "Liurik, when do you plan to act? Are you still going to Balmerk?"
"Exactly. Dad, I plan to start operations in early May."
"Oh? Isn't it a time point with our spring Sorgon voyage? No, you have to come back from Balmerk, you are more nervous about time."
"It doesn't matter." Rurik said with certainty: "It just so happens that you recruit an army in Novgorod first, and I rushed with the army casually. We assembled in Shilla Fort, and then attacked the northern shore of the Great Lake and found Kare. The Leah settlement immediately launched an attack!"
"That's it!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

The Principality of Ross must adapt to the current era and adopt a strategy of elite soldiers, and must arm the Warriors First and Second Banners and the Merlaren Banners into heavy infantry in various senses.In order to facilitate internal coordination, the Melaren Banner team should be renamed the Warriors Third Banner, and when recruited from Balmerk to the new Jianyong, it can become the Warriors Fourth Banner.They are soldiers as soldiers, fishermen, herders, growers, loggers, miners, etc. in peacetime. They are militias whose militia strength far exceeds the general meaning. The Russ Principality basically implements an almost all-round strategy based on the old tradition.As for the real standing soldiers, of course, there are also mercenary troops that have swelled to nearly three hundred people around Rlik.Perhaps it is more appropriate to call this group of people as the Guards.In the real Rome, the guards were always good at turning back because of greed, but the guards were extremely important to the emperor.Many of them are already married. As their golden lord and monarch, Rurik naturally treats monitors their family members kindly. In particular, focus on Yevlo's wife, Hermi from Suomi, to set a benchmark for other mercenaries.Days are getting longer and longer, and since Roseburg has been desperately producing artifacts related to weapons and tools, the talk about Rose's new expedition has also become more and more popular.People are waiting for Rurik to release a realistic statement, but after waiting for almost a month, still nothing happens?It wasn't until early February, not far from the snow melt crisis, that Rurik finally issued a major order-a meeting.Because the Rose Dumas building that looks like a huge traditional Viking longhouse is about to be completed, although it is still quite rudimentary, it is appropriate as an open conference hall.So, in the newly built huge parliamentary court, will Rurik really announce a plan for an expedition?That must be true, otherwise the whole of Rose would not be able to make steel weapons and battleships desperately.It was a sunny morning, and the Ross Dumas with a stone foundation was finally completed.There is also a small empty field at the door of this traditional long house. Thousands of people gathered here to participate in the inauguration ceremony of Ross Dumas.After all, it is a large-scale public building, and it is more sacred. The gilded statue of Odin in the temple was moved out, and Lumia put on a antler helmet to organize a ceremony.A bucket of deer's blood was deliberately spilled on the ground in front of Ross Duma's door to make the building divine.Rurik stood in the crowd, and in the end he was the first to step into the building.He climbed the wooden ladder, pushed open the closed wooden door, and subconsciously raised his head to stare at the hanging plaque.A piece of carbonized oak board nailed with bronze flakes, put it together to become the word RUSDUMA.The wooden door opened wide, and a strong smell of turpentine came to his face.Rurik subconsciously covered his mouth. He wanted to vomit, but he still endured the discomfort and walked in.For many people, the smell of rosin is actually a fragrance, and those who are good at loggers do not shy away from this.Just like the old Otto and the old elites of Ross, they dressed in colorful costumes and stepped into this new sanctuary after being blessed by the gods.Odin represents justice and majesty, and the longhouse Ros Dumar will implement this justice and majesty."It's a bit empty inside." Old Otto looked left and right, and then yelled that the rosin was still too strong.Rurik raised his head and pointed with his finger: "Those bronze lampholders, can there be anointing in them?"Then some entourage came with a kind of fire, and in a short while the wall was brightly lit.After a while, someone untied the chains of the chandelier, and the lights with 64 lamp holders arranged in a radial pattern were put down, which brought the ultimate light to the entire longhouse.However, in Rurik's view, a 40-watt energy-saving lamp can be more reliable than these hot things. Based on this era, we should not pursue more.Otto clapped his hands and cheered: "I see three chandeliers here! The work of the blacksmith and carpenter is so good! Why didn't I think of doing this before?"The old Klavasen and his old buddies are also here, and everyone is very happy to be praised by the old duke.Rurik pinched his waist: "Isn't it because we were poor before? This huge chamber needs to be further renovated. I financed the construction of it. It is the property of the duke family."Everyone agrees with this.He said publicly: "However, we are here to discuss Rose's future path. That's okay! I think today is the right time! You have long realized that we Rose will choose a new goal and chop up the axe. "The people who had been whispering for a long time immediately began to talk loudly. Some people simply couldn't bear to shout with interest: "My lord Duke, just tell you! Are you hitting the Danes? My big axe is waiting to drink blood!"Someone spoke so brazenly, and hundreds of people present were extremely excited, as they opened their coats to reveal their bursting muscles, eager to fight.Old Otto was also immersed in pleasure, and he opened his arms to signal everyone to be quiet.After all, he has been an old leader for more than ten years, and Otto still has this strong right to speak.The crowd calmed down, and Otto asked again: "Don't dare anymore. Come on, who are we going to beat? Could it really be Denmark?"Denmark? Do not! It is not appropriate to intervene in Denmark now, or really attacking Danish Rus will not bring real benefits.He has made clear public opinion, and the brothers are all rumors about attacking the Danish forces. But my plan is not to beat them up.Rurik turned around, called out the names of some senior old guys one by one, and then recruited the flag captains of the various flag teams to Rose Dumar.There is even a woman, Hermi, Jeflo's already pregnant wife.Why does an ordinary woman come to the sacred place of discussion of the Ross people? Wait a minute, is the Lord Duke still interested in the East?What enemy can there be in the East? Didn't all the guys there submit?In the afternoon, Ross Dumari gathered more than forty people. The strong man sitting everywhere exuding a strong body odor, fortunately, the rosin breath was more aggressive and dispelled the discomfort.Helmi sits tremblingly next to her husband Jeflo. How can she never think of herself as an ordinary woman, how can she be qualified to participate here?Or is it that women are also eligible to participate in men's councils?She seems to be a small character, everyone's eyes are still fixed on the current Duke Rurik who is still selling off."Just say it, son! Do you want your father to continue to wait?" Otto was the most senior, and he expressed dissatisfaction on behalf of the old guys.Rurik looked around again, no longer intending to talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "Attack who? Karelia!"As soon as the voice fell, all the people who were about to cheer were dumb.Karelia, what is that thing?People have different opinions, until Otto suddenly realized: "You said Karelia. Rurik, those guys really exist? Are those guys really going to focus on fighting? We have been to Novgorod every year for decades, too. I don't know if there are Karelians on the edge of the Great Lake. Even if you keep saying that they exist, they are still a threat."Rurik was also surprised by his father's reaction: "Dad! Not only do Karelians exist, they also make other Finns jealous.""Finnish? The Suomi and Tavastia are all surrendered to us?""That's right. But Karelia is very strong. I believe that what Chief Suomi said is true, so I invited Hermi. She is the only daughter of Chief Suomi, and he must know a lot.""Well, let this woman speak. I hope she has learned Gnostic."Therefore, poor Hermi was pushed out, facing a group of stubborn Varanga, she felt that she was the rabbit among the wolves, pitiful and helpless.Yes, even her husband Jevlo is urging her to explain what Karelia is.Hermi, she finally stammered and mumbled...Although she was born in a lake in southern Finland, almost all of her understanding of the Karelian neighbors in the West comes from her people.Hermi's Gnostic language is still blunt, so he subconsciously uses some important vocabulary context chapters.The Karelians in her mouth are rebellious and tenacious, and they even claim that they have a large population, but these words are repeated over and over."Are these the only ones?" Old Otto blew his beard and stared.Hermi shrank into a ball trembling, her mouth trembling, and she couldn't say anything."Dad, you scared her." Rurik poked his head a little, then turned his head: "Hermi, can you provide more details?"Hermi looked up after a while, as if she was about to say something, but in the end she didn't speak, and her face was covered by scattered black hair.This is not what she wants to hide, but the daughter of a well-protected Suomi leader. How does she know the details about the Karelians?Seeing that there was not much information to ask, Rurik softly throated and did not intend to make any more questions.He raised his head and said: "Although the information is very limited, we can at least ascertain two facts. There are many Karelians, and we need to mobilize many people to defeat them."But this is almost knowingly asked. The sons of some old guys participated in the war to conquer the Eastern Land last year. The first news they learned about the Karelians was nothing more than the "many and strong" people from Suomi. Discourse.Whether it was Tavastia or Suomi, the Ross army quickly defeated them.Following this line of thinking, some people stood up and explained their views: "Rurik, do you place too much emphasis on the Karelians? If they are strong enough, they should defeat the others around them. However, our fishing boat has never been with them. The canoe encountered directly, and all the boats that saw us hurriedly fled. If they are strong enough, they should defeat the other Finns. The fact is that we are the conquerors of Finland."Rurik motioned to the old man to sit down, and in all fairness he certainly felt that this view was justified.However, as the commander-in-chief, Rurik intends to develop steadily and steadily, especially when it comes to war.The atmosphere in the long room is already very obvious. The rebellious men regard the new enemy Karelia as an ant, an enemy that can be easily defeated.I'm afraid their attitude is completely correct, but Rurik still doesn't want to take risks, even if this caution may be too much."I know." He said, "You think I am too cautious! Yes, I am cautious! We just want to treat the Karelians as Danes, we must conquer them. Only by conquering them can Shilla Fort Completely safe. Only by conquering them can we Roth immigrants have a stable living space."Arik's murderous aura was overflowing with his pouting mouth. He yelled, "Brother, you are too cautious. Why don't you give me the job. I took five hundred brothers and rowed over, and the enemy you were worried about will soon perish." "The cousin's snatching made Rurik a lot of chagrin. He glared and shouted, I'm the Duke! Captain of the First Banner, you must accept my arrangement! If you attack like before, you Ashamed to be my brother!"Pay attention to the public account: Book Friends Base Camp pays attention to cash and coins!Arik was stunned by such a roar, not only him, but everyone including Otto was taken aback.Otto stroked his beard subconsciously again, his head couldn't help but remember that this stinky boy was holding his sword to protect Lumia many years ago."Brave enough, it's my son." Otto felt very happy.Arik's snatching words were really meaningless. Even though it was a meeting hall, everyone present did not dare to say that they were as wise as Rurik, so they shut up and listened.An atmosphere was overwhelmed, and Liu Lix simply opened the skylight to speak bright words, expounding his terrorist strategy.He stood up and drew his dagger, then plunged deeply into the wooden floor in front of him, and then suddenly sat down cross-legged."War! It is not a fight between warriors! War determines the life and death of everyone on both sides of the war. This is a life and death war. If Karelia does not die, it is like a spear hitting our throat all the time! You can say that they are weak. , But they have the possibility of launching a sneak attack and causing us to bleed heavily.Either do not fight or fight annihilation. This time, I took at least a thousand soldiers to the east. Not only this army, but also the army of allies of Suomi. I also want to organize a new army from Novgorod! We must destroy Karelia in one battle. I have no enemies with them, but they are in the north of Shilla Fort. They either surrender and offer tributes and women, or they all die! "A little bear leaked its fangs, and people couldn't help being afraid of Rurik's aura.It is said that it is the Chamber of Deputies, and the final decision is made by Rurik himself.It is another war of annihilation. Although it is certainly not as exciting as the attack on the Jutland Peninsula in Denmark, it is also a war that attracts everyone's attention.Someone screamed: "Then fight! Friends, after all, Karelia threatens our territory, and there is no harm in destroying them.""Okay, I also support the war. It would be great if they could seize a lot of leather from them~www.novelhall.com~ Since they claim to be very strong, let our soldiers take a look. I bet it's still us The warriors are really brave."...Everyone's attitude is already very obvious. Since Duke Rurik is determined to send a large army to conquer, even if this battle gives people a sword to kill the mouse's tail, the brothers can just follow the orders.Otto promptly raised his last question: "Liurik, when do you plan to act? Are you still going to Balmerk?""Exactly. Dad, I plan to start operations in early May.""Oh? Isn't it a time point with our spring Sorgon voyage? No, you have to come back from Balmerk, you are more nervous about time.""It doesn't matter." Rurik said with certainty: "It just so happens that you recruit an army in Novgorod first, and I rushed with the army casually. We assembled in Shilla Fort, and then attacked the northern shore of the Great Lake and found Kare. The Leah settlement immediately launched an attack!""That's it!"
