It was a complete accident for my own subordinates to run into the islanders of Saaremaa, but life always succeeded by accident.
Rurik said that he had to hold a banquet for the heroes of the expedition in the palace.
Since those messengers from Saaremaa came with the purpose of surrender, they naturally also enjoyed the right to participate.
Tralang, his name refers to "very long wood", which alludes to the keel of the ship.
The biggest settlement he has seen in his life for more than 20 years is the village on the island. In addition, he and the guys have rowed small boats on Pomeranian and Prussian villages, and he has also seen the Danish from afar. village.
It seems that all villages are the same. Wooden pillars are built on the walls, and they are covered with a lot of thatch and soil. Such a cluster of wooden houses is a village.
What is the "biggest settlement" of the Rus? They actually used a lot of huge wood to build the wall?
Although some people on the island are from Ross, their description of Ross is not surprising, it seems that it is just a big village ten times larger than the village on the island.
Shilla Fort is also a village? It is densely populated, with as many as three rows of deliberately stranded rowing boats moored along the river.
Although the messenger regained his mind from the surprise of seeing and riding the big ship "Chief Salmon" at the beginning, now he saw the entire fleet of big ships anchored, and his eyes kept staring, just like looking at gems.
The look of these ragged messengers that Rurik noticed, as expected, Rose's prosperity greatly shocked them.
But these guys are too dirty!
No one wants to coexist with fleas and lice. These nasty parasites were difficult to get rid of in the past.
And the situation is greatly improved. Sharper knives allow people to shave more effectively. Spirits are an excellent antibacterial agent. Sulfur soap cleanses the body and washes clothes. The residents of Fort Shilla can no longer go back once they adapt, and they can't stand the sloppy past.
However, the huge beard is considered to be a symbol of "men's son", so that some men learn from the Balmock to shave their hair, only the beard deliberately kept.
Tralang, who entered the city, was cautious. He was a vulgar person, and he was amazed by the prosperity of the city, especially the hard sandy ground. Those Ross warriors with shields, armor and uniforms are unspeakable. If they act disrespectfully, they will be stabbed to death.
The key to being a pirate is to focus on the weak, and to escape or obey when encountering the strong. Now Tralang and his friends obey like a flock of sheep.
The dusty Spuyut and his guys can finally take a good bath. They first talked about the journey with a group of old guys who also enjoyed the sauna in the public steam room in the city, and then enjoyed some special The treatment, one by one, jumped into the warm tub to take a bath.
How did Tralang and his people enjoy this? They are special visitors and are naturally treated differently.
Rurik wanted to invite the ten people to the appointment, but it was impossible to believe them easily. Their ragged clothes were first confiscated, and they were all burned on the grounds that they were full of parasites. The weapons they carried were also ordered to be temporarily confiscated by the Governor-General Cornusson.
After removing their beards, their hair was deliberately shaved off a lot, and then sulfur soap was rubbed across their bodies, and they were also thrown off burlap to order them to shave off the dirt on their bodies.
This seems to be a very arrogant disengagement. The soldiers who carry out the orders of the prince and the governor are indeed very arrogant, but they are also very reasonable: "You are like earthworms that you drilled out of mud. You are covered with dirt! The prince who wants to submit to us It must be kept clean, if you are still covered in mud, you will be beheaded!"
How dare they not follow?
With a lot of hair cut off and turned into short hair, Tralang sat in the tub, not to mention that he feels really comfortable now.
In the dimly lit bath room, he couldn't help but sigh: "Are the Ross people clean like this since ancient times? Those soldiers have spoken badly, and I feel very good now."
Someone screamed in doubt: "My grandfather never said that Ross is like this."
"Your grandfather is from Ross. This is also Ross, what's the matter with them?"
"How do I know?" The descendant of Rose regretted that he knew nothing. He has only one emotion: "I feel that Chief Ross is innocent. I feel that I am completely clean now, as if he was just born."
After they claimed to be comfortable, some people gave them soft, fine linen clothes, tops and trousers, except for a set of fluffy sweaters and trousers made of thick wool. It's not over yet, they are wrapped in a deerskin coat with a bronze buckle belt to tie the waist. A pair of feet wrapped in linen foot cloth, stepped into the brand new deerskin boots. They also got a hat. The hairy brown tail at the back proves that it is squirrel leather. What's amazing is that there are extra leather cushions sewn on both sides of the hat, which are obviously tied to the top of the head. Just covering his ears and cheeks.
They never thought that they could still enjoy such warm and comfortable new clothes, and they were surprised that the joy of joy surpassed the gratitude for the prince's reward.
After all, just put on this outfit and go back, stand in a village on Saaremaa Island and show it to the people. You will surely get all kinds of praise and become a famous person.
The foreign messengers changed into good clothes. The local Russ, Slavs, Melalen, Suomi, and people from various tribes couldn't help but comment on their qualities, and even chewed their tongues too much.
Is the prince showing off his wealth? What a good show to a group of poor and weak.
In fact, Rurik learned that except for the leader of the envoy, Teraranzuwang was on the island of Gotland, the other nine people were descendants of the Russ who were deliberately selected by the islanders to be exiled in a distant era. Without this blood bond, the rewarded costume would of course not be too good, at least it would still be decent.
Because he always has an Eastern soul deep in his heart, he will naturally give more rewards to any intentional surrender, just like a father who recognizes a godson by giving gifts to declare his identity as a father.
Besides, they are from Saaremaa!
When they washed the sludge and put on new clothes, the feast prepared by Rurik was ready to be served.
Lake Ilmen is indeed the warmest agricultural area that the Rus people can control. Although there is no big land and rich weather, it still fully meets the current food needs of the Principality. In fact, if the Suomi people who were substantively canonized as a vassal country did not count the grain needs of the Suomi people, the oats, wheat, and rye produced by the Ross people not only met their own needs, but even qualified for export as never before.
For the first time, the Ross people have the possibility of squandering food, but the hard life in the past has been so long, no one really wastes food. What the general public has to do is to eat food with open stomachs and try to eat as fat as possible. To deal with severe winters.
The flour milling workshop, which received a large amount of wheat supply, was fully started. Due to the huge amount of processing, Yasraki could only make her servants and the reindeer raised, and grind the flour overnight according to the pattern of non-stop grinding. . She is Rurik's sister-in-law, and they are in an economic alliance with each other.
Any food made from wheat is delicious. When people find more delicious food, they will naturally reject the staple food of the past. In just a few years of work, the oatmeal that has been rushed by the people has now begun to be marginalized. People are more willing to buy wheat for food. Even if they pay a little more money, they have to buy the first test pie and biscuits from public shops. bread.
Aslaqi processed flour for the prince and made it into delicacies for public sale. She was able to earn two labor costs, and in the current situation, she had essentially completed a monopoly.
In the severe winter, a heavy snow will be brewing. The world after the snow is full of opportunities for real hunters. The white snow almost destroys the camouflage of squirrels. Arik will also take his brothers in a carriage to the undeveloped forest of Ladoga Lake. Leather resources. They are not short of money and are very willing to reserve dry food. Foods like wheat biscuits are perfect rations. They are extremely storage-resistant and full of exaggeration, and even tearing a piece can cope with the consumption of a hunter in a day.
Aslaqi is frantically baking sesame seeds, and the sesame seeds are constantly stacked in the dry and cold warehouse. It is inevitable that there will be "rats" stealing food among the hired personnel. This is the crime of theft. Strictly speaking, the stolen is still the property of the prince. If it is true according to the old rules of the Ross people, the person who steals for the first time has to cut off his pinky, too many times will be expelled by the whole family.
Now that Rurik was in Fort Shilla, he laid down a new rule: Those who steal wheat cakes should be punished for logging, and one hundred trees must be cut down in a winter to apologize for work.
This can be regarded as an accident, but similar events are inevitably emerging in the Duchy of Ross. As a resident group expands, the probability of acts such as theft will increase. In this way, according to the verbal customary law of the past tribal era, it is obviously no longer suitable for the needs of the new era. The principality needs a statutory law and make it public to make a bottom-line requirement for the lives of the people.
There is plenty of time to study the law in winter.
Rurik ushered in triumphant sailing heroes and unexpected messengers.
At night, the spacious palace hall was also a parliamentary place, and now it has become the best place for banquets.
Rurik followed the ancient Eastern style, because this "winter palace" was naturally sitting north and south facing the Neva River, and he and Lumia were sitting in the north.
The governor Konuzon and his son Konuzon sat on the right with the returning Spuyut and the messengers from Saaremaa on the left.
A pine square table was placed in front of everyone and a long table was put together. On it, the exquisite dried raspberry fruit and delicious mead were visited first.
Prince Rose was a handsome and brave young man, but the high priest had a flat face.
Rows of polar bear heads are hung on the wooden wall, and bronze lamp holders are placed on the animal heads. The beating flames of nearly a hundred oil lamps not only bring light, but also the whole room is quite warm.
Not only that, the matrix ceiling with the falling roof is the biggest light source, although it is night, the house is extremely bright.
It is said that the hard dish for the night banquet is two roasted deer and a large number of fried pike steaks. People drool at the thought of the oily meat.
It's just that the hard dish will be banned from opening in the future by Liurik, and even the snacks on the table are not allowed, and everyone can only wait.
Taking advantage of the last opportunity to wait, Rurik took the lead in opening the chatterbox: "Everyone, you have successfully returned from conquering the ocean, Spuyute, you are indeed the bravest adventurer in all of Ross, and your story will continue to circulate. And you... …People from Saaremaa. You have to submit to the Duchy of Ross. This is your most correct decision. I am Rurik Ottoson, the second prince of the Duchy of Ross, and a person blessed by the Lord Odin. Conquerors of Tran, the East, the Far North, and the Slavs. In the future, you will also be your masters."
Traland was frightened by this series of titles, not only that, he felt that he was already in a different world, and Rose's strength surpassed his cognition.
Tralang hurriedly introduced himself, stuttering because of fear, and reluctantly recounted what the village elders had given him.
What he said simply expressed an attitude: "The Saarema islanders are willing to submit to the Duchy of Ross, and Ross wants to give the islanders military protection."
"Military protection?!" Rurik immediately realized that the situation was a little strange when he heard the request bluntly. And this man is stuttering, I'm afraid there is something hidden in it!
Rurik didn't talk about it, and deliberately said: "I heard that there are descendants of my Rus among you. Is this true?"
But I saw the other nine messengers all put on enthusiastic smiles, but they had no proof. They had to explain some of the general situation of their hometown Roseburg to prove it from me.
Without exception, the nine of them explained the fjord, the mines that produce copper and iron, the large sandbar islands that fjord exports, and a key freshwater stream.
Even the real name of the former high priest of the high priest Veria, as well as the names of several tribal leaders before Otto.
It is impossible for outsiders to know these things! Because during that period, the Ross tribe was nesting in the fjord, like a bear hibernating in a cave, and even disconnected from the traditional allies (not very good allies) of the Mellaren people. Thanks to the good habit of "recording information", the former high priest of the Rus, Veria, was the first person to pioneer the historian of the Rus duchy. Except for the sacrificial prayers engraved on the wooden boards, the Russ experienced in the past. Memorabilia and important people are also recorded.
Rurik had read those documents carefully, and now he was copied onto paper by his wife and concubine.
"I know these things. You are completely correct in your account. I can believe that you are indeed descendants of the Rus. However, you are descendants of sinners."
The happy faces chilled again, and the nine people successively argued that the perpetrators were all ancestors and that their generation was innocent.
These words touched the scales of some old guys!
Governor Conuson coughed and scolded Hugh so quibbly that they all calmed down.
The messengers' words do have some truth, but Europe is full of pedigree theory, and sinners are always inferior afterwards. Therefore, some Viking warriors have to fight to the death and not surrender in times of crisis, and there is also a motive to avoid their children being humiliated by their tribesmen.
"After you are indeed sinners, this is something that cannot be changed" Rurik said, "but there are a large number of other people on Saaremaa Island. Especially you! Tralang, you call yourself a Gotlander Descendants, I don’t know that my uncle died in a sneak attack by your Gotlanders!"
Tralang was speechless, and he tried to argue with his arms and legs, but he didn't say why.
The other party is frightened, for fear of his own thunder anger?
Of course Rurik did not want to retaliate. Aside from these people, Saaremaa has a relatively important strategic position in the Baltic Sea. Especially as the current state of war between Ross and Denmark has intensified, the significance of the island is even more significant.
He threatened: "Even if you do not take the initiative to surrender, my army will conquer your island of Saaremaa within two years. I have marked your island on the map a long time ago. You are all weak and conquer. You have nothing to do with you in the first place. I am kind, and my purpose is to conquer not to kill. You also admire Odin, and I am the hero who has been blessed by Odin. Your initiative to surrender is the most correct thing you made Your choice. Look at the clothes you are wearing now, and the wine on the table. Surrender to me, you should have this enjoyment."
The words of the Duke of Ross are very clear, and Traland understands the prince's decision even with a muscle in his head.
The messengers all swear allegiance to the islanders, especially the nine descendants of Ross, who bluntly stated that they would serve the prince to wash away the sins of their ancestors.
Rurik smiled with satisfaction, and deliberately asked: "How do you wash off your sins? I heard that you are always pirates. You did attack my ship and killed five Russians! You are the same race. , Isn’t the guilt greater?"
"Misunderstanding! This is all a misunderstanding!" Tralang explained with sweat and dancing, "We thought it was a Danish merchant ship that was stranded..."
"Oh? So you are very willing to attack Danish merchant ships?"
"Yes! If we knew that it was the prince’s ship, where would we dare to attack. After the misunderstanding was resolved, we buried the dead and entertained Mr. Spuyut, so we would have this visit~www.novelhall.com~Liuli K nodded and asked Spuyute: "Is that so? "
"It's true. As far as I know, these islanders will sneak attack on Danish and Bornholm ships. There are also Pomeranians, I don't know about these people, but the first two are indeed ours. enemy."
"Are you actively attacking Danish ships?!" Rurik asked knowingly again.
"Yes!" Tralang said hurriedly.
"That's why you are afraid of Danish reprisals that you asked for my military asylum?"
Tralang hesitated again...
Rurik suddenly became energetic and raised his chest. He did not explain the specific situation now. Just as the meal was about to be served, he pointed out the obligations and responsibilities of the Saaremaans after they surrendered to Ross: "You will be accepted as a member of the Duchy of Ross, and at the same time my people will be able to enter your island freely. You must continue to attack the Danes actively, and I will provide you with a batch of new weapons and ships, and I order you to hunt down and kill them. All the Danish ships that arrived killed all the people on board."
"Ah? Why is this..." Tralang subconsciously asked in astonishment.
"There is no why! Because the Principality of Ross and the Kingdom of Denmark do not share the same sky!"

Except for the sacrificial prayers engraved on the wooden boards, the Russ experienced in the past. Memorabilia and important people are also recorded.
Rurik had read those documents carefully, and now he was copied onto paper by his wife and concubine.
"I know these things. You are completely correct in your account. I can believe that you are indeed descendants of the Rus. However, you are descendants of sinners."
The happy faces chilled again, and the nine people successively argued that the perpetrators were all ancestors and that their generation was innocent.
These words touched the scales of some old guys!
Governor Conuson coughed and scolded Hugh so quibbly that they all calmed down.
The messengers' words do have some truth, but Europe is full of pedigree theory, and sinners are always inferior afterwards. Therefore, some Viking warriors have to fight to the death and not surrender in times of crisis, and there is also a motive to avoid their children being humiliated by their tribesmen.
"After you are indeed sinners, this is something that cannot be changed" Rurik said, "but there are a large number of other people on Saaremaa Island. Especially you! Tralang, you call yourself a Gotlander Descendants, I don’t know that my uncle died in a sneak attack by your Gotlanders!"

"Misunderstanding! This is all a misunderstanding!" Tralang explained with sweat and dancing, "We thought it was a Danish merchant ship that was stranded..."
"Oh? So you are very willing to attack Danish merchant ships?"
"Yes! If we knew that it was the prince’s ship, where would we dare to attack. After the misunderstanding was resolved, we buried the dead and entertained Mr. Spuyut, so we would have this visit~www.novelhall.com~Liuli K nodded and asked Spuyute: "Is that so? "
"It's true. As far as I know, these islanders will sneak attack on Danish and Bornholm ships. There are also Pomeranians, I don't know about these people, but the first two are indeed ours. enemy."
"Are you actively attacking Danish ships?!" Rurik asked knowingly again.
"Yes!" Tralang said hurriedly.
"That's why you are afraid of Danish reprisals that you asked for my military asylum?"
Tralang hesitated again...
Rurik suddenly became energetic and raised his chest. He did not explain the specific situation now. Just as the meal was about to be served, he pointed out the obligations and responsibilities of the Saaremaans after they surrendered to Ross: "You will be accepted as a member of the Duchy of Ross, and at the same time my people will be able to enter your island freely. You must continue to attack the Danes actively, and I will provide you with a batch of new weapons and ships, and I order you to hunt down and kill them. All the Danish ships that arrived killed all the people on board."
"Ah? Why is this..." Tralang subconsciously asked in astonishment.
"There is no why! Because the Principality of Ross and the Kingdom of Denmark do not share the same sky!"

You can search for the latest chapters by searching for "The Rise of Rurik" in Baidu!It was a complete accident for my own subordinates to run into the islanders of Saaremaa, but life always succeeded by accident.Rurik said that he had to hold a banquet for the heroes of the expedition in the palace.Since those messengers from Saaremaa came with the purpose of surrender, they naturally also enjoyed the right to participate.Tralang, his name refers to "very long wood", which alludes to the keel of the ship.The biggest settlement he has seen in his life for more than 20 years is the village on the island. In addition, he and the guys have rowed small boats on Pomeranian and Prussian villages, and he has also seen the Danish from afar. village.It seems that all villages are the same. Wooden pillars are built on the walls, and they are covered with a lot of thatch and soil. Such a cluster of wooden houses is a village.What is the "biggest settlement" of the Rus? They actually used a lot of huge wood to build the wall?Although some people on the island are from Ross, their description of Ross is not surprising, it seems that it is just a big village ten times larger than the village on the island.Shilla Fort is also a village? It is densely populated, with as many as three rows of deliberately stranded rowing boats moored along the river.Although the messenger regained his mind from the surprise of seeing and riding the big ship "Chief Salmon" at the beginning, now he saw the entire fleet of big ships anchored, and his eyes kept staring, just like looking at gems.The look of these ragged messengers that Rurik noticed, as expected, Rose's prosperity greatly shocked them.But these guys are too dirty!No one wants to coexist with fleas and lice. These nasty parasites were difficult to get rid of in the past.And the situation is greatly improved. Sharper knives allow people to shave more effectively. Spirits are an excellent antibacterial agent. Sulfur soap cleanses the body and washes clothes. The residents of Fort Shilla can no longer go back once they adapt, and they can't stand the sloppy past.However, the huge beard is considered to be a symbol of "men's son", so that some men learn from the Balmock to shave their hair, only the beard deliberately kept.Tralang, who entered the city, was cautious. He was a vulgar person, and he was amazed by the prosperity of the city, especially the hard sandy ground. Those Ross warriors with shields, armor and uniforms are unspeakable. If they act disrespectfully, they will be stabbed to death.The key to being a pirate is to focus on the weak, and to escape or obey when encountering the strong. Now Tralang and his friends obey like a flock of sheep.The dusty Spuyut and his guys can finally take a good bath. They first talked about the journey with a group of old guys who also enjoyed the sauna in the public steam room in the city, and then enjoyed some special The treatment, one by one, jumped into the warm tub to take a bath.How did Tralang and his people enjoy this? They are special visitors and are naturally treated differently.Rurik wanted to invite the ten people to the appointment, but it was impossible to believe them easily. Their ragged clothes were first confiscated, and they were all burned on the grounds that they were full of parasites. The weapons they carried were also ordered to be temporarily confiscated by the Governor-General Cornusson.After removing their beards, their hair was deliberately shaved off a lot, and then sulfur soap was rubbed across their bodies, and they were also thrown off burlap to order them to shave off the dirt on their bodies.This seems to be a very arrogant disengagement. The soldiers who carry out the orders of the prince and the governor are indeed very arrogant, but they are also very reasonable: "You are like earthworms that you drilled out of mud. You are covered with dirt! The prince who wants to submit to us It must be kept clean, if you are still covered in mud, you will be beheaded!"How dare they not follow?With a lot of hair cut off and turned into short hair, Tralang sat in the tub, not to mention that he feels really comfortable now.In the dimly lit bath room, he couldn't help but sigh: "Are the Ross people clean like this since ancient times? Those soldiers have spoken badly, and I feel very good now."Someone screamed in doubt: "My grandfather never said that Ross is like this.""Your grandfather is from Ross. This is also Ross, what's the matter with them?""How do I know?" The descendant of Rose regretted that he knew nothing. He has only one emotion: "I feel that Chief Ross is innocent. I feel that I am completely clean now, as if he was just born."After they claimed to be comfortable, some people gave them soft, fine linen clothes, tops and trousers, except for a set of fluffy sweaters and trousers made of thick wool. It's not over yet, they are wrapped in a deerskin coat with a bronze buckle belt to tie the waist. A pair of feet wrapped in linen foot cloth, stepped into the brand new deerskin boots. They also got a hat. The hairy brown tail at the back proves that it is squirrel leather. What's amazing is that there are extra leather cushions sewn on both sides of the hat, which are obviously tied to the top of the head. Just covering his ears and cheeks.They never thought that they could still enjoy such warm and comfortable new clothes, and they were surprised that the joy of joy surpassed the gratitude for the prince's reward.After all, just put on this outfit and go back, stand in a village on Saaremaa Island and show it to the people. You will surely get all kinds of praise and become a famous person.The foreign messengers changed into good clothes. The local Russ, Slavs, Melalen, Suomi, and people from various tribes couldn't help but comment on their qualities, and even chewed their tongues too much.Is the prince showing off his wealth? What a good show to a group of poor and weak.In fact, Rurik learned that except for the leader of the envoy, Teraranzuwang was on the island of Gotland, the other nine people were descendants of the Russ who were deliberately selected by the islanders to be exiled in a distant era. Without this blood bond, the rewarded costume would of course not be too good, at least it would still be decent.Because he always has an Eastern soul deep in his heart, he will naturally give more rewards to any intentional surrender, just like a father who recognizes a godson by giving gifts to declare his identity as a father.Besides, they are from Saaremaa!When they washed the sludge and put on new clothes, the feast prepared by Rurik was ready to be served.Lake Ilmen is indeed the warmest agricultural area that the Rus people can control. Although there is no big land and rich weather, it still fully meets the current food needs of the Principality. In fact, if the Suomi people who were substantively canonized as a vassal country did not count the grain needs of the Suomi people, the oats, wheat, and rye produced by the Ross people not only met their own needs, but even qualified for export as never before.For the first time, the Ross people have the possibility of squandering food, but the hard life in the past has been so long, no one really wastes food. What the general public has to do is to eat food with open stomachs and try to eat as fat as possible. To deal with severe winters.The flour milling workshop, which received a large amount of wheat supply, was fully started. Due to the huge amount of processing, Yasraki could only make her servants and the reindeer raised, and grind the flour overnight according to the pattern of non-stop grinding. . She is Rurik's sister-in-law, and they are in an economic alliance with each other.Any food made from wheat is delicious. When people find more delicious food, they will naturally reject the staple food of the past. In just a few years of work, the oatmeal that has been rushed by the people has now begun to be marginalized. People are more willing to buy wheat for food. Even if they pay a little more money, they have to buy the first test pie and biscuits from public shops. bread.Aslaqi processed flour for the prince and made it into delicacies for public sale. She was able to earn two labor costs, and in the current situation, she had essentially completed a monopoly.In the severe winter, a heavy snow will be brewing. The world after the snow is full of opportunities for real hunters. The white snow almost destroys the camouflage of squirrels. Arik will also take his brothers in a carriage to the undeveloped forest of Ladoga Lake. Leather resources. They are not short of money and are very willing to reserve dry food. Foods like wheat biscuits are perfect rations. They are extremely storage-resistant and full of exaggeration, and even tearing a piece can cope with the consumption of a hunter in a day.Aslaqi is frantically baking sesame seeds, and the sesame seeds are constantly stacked in the dry and cold warehouse. It is inevitable that there will be "rats" stealing food among the hired personnel. This is the crime of theft. Strictly speaking, the stolen is still the property of the prince. If it is true according to the old rules of the Ross people, the person who steals for the first time has to cut off his pinky, too many times will be expelled by the whole family.Now that Rurik was in Fort Shilla, he laid down a new rule: Those who steal wheat cakes should be punished for logging, and one hundred trees must be cut down in a winter to apologize for work.This can be regarded as an accident, but similar events are inevitably emerging in the Duchy of Ross. As a resident group expands, the probability of acts such as theft will increase. In this way, according to the verbal customary law of the past tribal era, it is obviously no longer suitable for the needs of the new era. The principality needs a statutory law and make it public to make a bottom-line requirement for the lives of the people.There is plenty of time to study the law in winter.Rurik ushered in triumphant sailing heroes and unexpected messengers.At night, the spacious palace hall was also a parliamentary place, and now it has become the best place for banquets.Rurik followed the ancient Eastern style, because this "winter palace" was naturally sitting north and south facing the Neva River, and he and Lumia were sitting in the north.The governor Konuzon and his son Konuzon sat on the right with the returning Spuyut and the messengers from Saaremaa on the left.A pine square table was placed in front of everyone and a long table was put together. On it, the exquisite dried raspberry fruit and delicious mead were visited first.Prince Rose was a handsome and brave young man, but the high priest had a flat face.Rows of polar bear heads are hung on the wooden wall, and bronze lamp holders are placed on the animal heads. The beating flames of nearly a hundred oil lamps not only bring light, but also the whole room is quite warm.Not only that, the matrix ceiling with the falling roof is the biggest light source, although it is night, the house is extremely bright.It is said that the hard dish for the night banquet is two roasted deer and a large number of fried pike steaks. People drool at the thought of the oily meat.It's just that the hard dish will be banned from opening in the future by Liurik, and even the snacks on the table are not allowed, and everyone can only wait.Taking advantage of the last opportunity to wait, Rurik took the lead in opening the chatterbox: "Everyone, you have successfully returned from conquering the ocean, Spuyute, you are indeed the bravest adventurer in all of Ross, and your story will continue to circulate. And you... People from Saaremaa. You have to submit to the Duchy of Ross. This is your most correct decision. I am Rurik Ottoson, the second prince of the Duchy of Ross, and a person blessed by the Lord Odin. Conquerors of Tran, the East, the Far North, and the Slavs. In the future, you will also be your masters."Traland was frightened by this series of titles, not only that, he felt that he was already in a different world, and Rose's strength surpassed his cognition.Tralang hurriedly introduced himself, stuttering because of fear, and reluctantly recounted what the village elders had given him.What he said simply expressed an attitude: "The Saarema islanders are willing to submit to the Duchy of Ross, and Ross wants to give the islanders military protection.""Military protection?!" Rurik immediately realized that the situation was a little strange when he heard the request bluntly. And this man is stuttering, I'm afraid there is something hidden in it!Rurik didn't talk about it, and deliberately said: "I heard that there are descendants of my Rus among you. Is this true?"But I saw the other nine messengers all put on enthusiastic smiles, but they had no proof. They had to explain some of the general situation of their hometown Roseburg to prove it from me.Without exception, the nine of them explained the fjord, the mines that produce copper and iron, the large sandbar islands that fjord exports, and a key freshwater stream.Even the real name of the former high priest of the high priest Veria, as well as the names of several tribal leaders before Otto.It is impossible for outsiders to know these things! Because during that period, the Ross tribe was nesting in the fjord, like a bear hibernating in a cave, and even disconnected from the traditional allies not very good allies of the Mellaren people. Thanks to the good habit of "recording information", the former high priest of the Rus, Veria, was the first person to pioneer the historian of the Rus duchy. Except for the sacrificial prayers engraved on the wooden boards, the Russ experienced in the past. Memorabilia and important people are also recorded.Rurik had read those documents carefully, and now he was copied onto paper by his wife and concubine."I know these things. You are completely correct in your account. I can believe that you are indeed descendants of the Rus. However, you are descendants of sinners."The happy faces chilled again, and the nine people successively argued that the perpetrators were all ancestors and that their generation was innocent.These words touched the scales of some old guys!Governor Conuson coughed and scolded Hugh so quibbly that they all calmed down.The messengers' words do have some truth, but Europe is full of pedigree theory, and sinners are always inferior afterwards. Therefore, some Viking warriors have to fight to the death and not surrender in times of crisis, and there is also a motive to avoid their children being humiliated by their tribesmen."After you are indeed sinners, this is something that cannot be changed" Rurik said, "but there are a large number of other people on Saaremaa Island. Especially you! Tralang, you call yourself a Gotlander Descendants, I don't know that my uncle died in a sneak attack by your Gotlanders!"Tralang was speechless, and he tried to argue with his arms and legs, but he didn't say why.The other party is frightened, for fear of his own thunder anger?Of course Rurik did not want to retaliate. Aside from these people, Saaremaa has a relatively important strategic position in the Baltic Sea. Especially as the current state of war between Ross and Denmark has intensified, the significance of the island is even more significant.He threatened: "Even if you do not take the initiative to surrender, my army will conquer your island of Saaremaa within two years. I have marked your island on the map a long time ago. You are all weak and conquer. You have nothing to do with you in the first place. I am kind, and my purpose is to conquer not to kill. You also admire Odin, and I am the hero who has been blessed by Odin. Your initiative to surrender is the most correct thing you made Your choice. Look at the clothes you are wearing now, and the wine on the table. Surrender to me, you should have this enjoyment."The words of the Duke of Ross are very clear, and Traland understands the prince's decision even with a muscle in his head.The messengers all swear allegiance to the islanders, especially the nine descendants of Ross, who bluntly stated that they would serve the prince to wash away the sins of their ancestors.Rurik smiled with satisfaction, and deliberately asked: "How do you wash off your sins? I heard that you are always pirates. You did attack my ship and killed five Russians! You are the same race. , Isn't the guilt greater?""Misunderstanding! This is all a misunderstanding!" Tralang explained with sweat and dancing, "We thought it was a Danish merchant ship that was stranded...""Oh? So you are very willing to attack Danish merchant ships?""Yes!
