The three big ships raised their sails and floated towards the West Baltic Sea. There is no need for any camouflage. The three ships have very clear flags, all of which are white with blue stripes.
Ragnar finally got the big ship at his disposal, so the ship of the Russ is no longer mysterious, because he is now standing on the stand of the Russ. No, even his own outfit is also Rose style.
He named the two ships "Stone Wall" and "Ring", one was his tribe name, and the other was his father.
The wooden strips are coated with chalk powder and then a layer of pine glue. As long as the time is a little longer, the white color will be stable, and the surface of the wooden strips will also form a solid film.
The bows of the two ships use such white wooden strips to spell out the name of the ship and the specific hull number. They are not Ragnar’s boats, and this group of exiles only has permission to use them.
But because of this treasure, Ragnar does not want to be a murderous pirate, even if it is to fight against the King of Denmark, he must pay attention to targeted attacks.
Three ships passed Tombstone Island after some supplies, and the next stop was Saarema Island.
To the west is the West Baltic Sea, and to the south is the Gulf of Riga.
The surrounding Estonian, Latvian, and Lithuanian tribes have learned about the fact that the Duchy of Rus planted a flag on the island to declare its rule.
Ross people? Isn't it another Viking?
The poor alliance of three tribes did not have the ability to make ocean rowing boats. At most, only a few brave men floated to the island with sampans.
Especially for the Estonian tribes, as many as twenty tribes have formed a loose alliance, and they are not twisted together. They are self-contained groups, and their knowledge of the outside world is really limited.
At least they figured out one thing. Regarding the outsiders who occupied Saaremaa Island, they were Ross people. Regarding the paddlers who attacked and killed the sea coast tribes years ago, they were also Ross people.
Time has wiped out a lot of things, and the attack seems to have happened ten years ago. For those Estonians who recently floated to Saaremaa Island, the Rose they learned from the locals was a different look.
For the various tribes of Estonia, the Rus are still a mysterious existence, and they have no intention of sending official envoys who can represent them to do the ADF.
A small group of Estonians have long since separated from their tribe and become fishermen and pirates on Saaremaa Island. Now the brothers have returned to Ross, and everyone is looking forward to the implementation of the sea robbery in the new year.
A deep bay on Saaremaa Island was designated as an anchorage, and three ships dropped anchor.
This island has welcomed their Earl——Master Spuyute!
"Dad!" a toddler greeted his little hand milkily.
That was the one-year-old son in Sipuyu District. He took his cub and kissed and nibble.
People welcomed their earl to land, and as soon as they landed on the island, they asked when the fleet would set off for the robbery.
Another group of people who disembarked also attracted everyone's attention. Ragnar, who was headed by the Danish nobles, surprised everyone.
Danish nobility? He and his buddies are clearly wearing Ross-style shirts! Also holding the crossbow of the Ross people.
It was also speculated that these Danes were mercenaries of Lord Rose.
It was Spuyut and Tralang who explained it, and Ragner showed up to say that he was strangled to death by the cradle of misunderstanding.
I was ordered to cooperate in the robbery, regardless of where the brothers came from, everyone is the royal pirate of the Duchy of Ross.
Now, it is indeed a good time to open the sea and rob.
The island of Saaremaa has been fortified. The strong fortress like a tortoise shell gives the pirates a sense of absolute security and makes them willing to do things very well.
The three ships unloaded a large amount of supplies, and a group of ragged guys quickly put on uniform uniforms, so-called white robes stitched with blue patterns, and shirts made of white and blue linen mixed fabrics that were worn inside.
The latter is the so-called sea soul shirt.
Why are royal pirates? Their essence is still the Navy of the Duchy of Ross, so at least they should be formal in their dress.
The mental outlook of everyone has changed drastically, and their ambitions have been further expanded.
They ate and drank in the fort, but got together to discuss big plans.
Someone shouted loudly: "Let's grab the Danes' ship and also grab Bernholm. Let's focus on grabbing Bernholm!"
As soon as this person said that everyone followed up, Spuyute chanted the victory slogan when he saw the grand occasion holding a glass.
Ragnar laughed, but he didn't plan to do that.
Spuyute is the master of the island, and he has the right to decide who to hack first this year.
He slapped his thighs vigorously: "It's all quiet, now listen to me. Seeing that you are so enthusiastic, we chased after the fishing boats of the Bernholm people. Anyway, they are servants of the Danes, so let's continue the crusade. !"
At least there is no risk to crusade against Bernholm Island. Everyone has attacked it many times in the past. This time we continue to do it. If we can lure the main force of Denmark out, wouldn't it be indiscriminate killing with the combat power of the three big ships?
Spuyut pounded Ragnar: "Now, listen to what our Danish lord has to say."
Upon hearing "Danish Lord", the enthusiastic crowd all shut up. It is true that they have been clamoring and killing the Danes, a real Dan is sitting here, and it is obviously inappropriate to say those things.
"What can I say?" Ragnar said with a wry smile: "I thought you pirates would really trouble the King of Denmark, but I didn't expect to attack the weak."
"Are you taunting us?" a drunk guy murmured.
Of course Ragnar wouldn’t let: "I just look down on you! I thought it would be strong to kill the Danes? If you really fight with the army of the King of Denmark, what is your chance of winning the group of pirates? Don’t use crossbows and big ships, just look at you. A group of thin guys can only be defeated."
These words of choking fire caused discomfort to everyone, but wise people think about it carefully, I am afraid that Chief Ragnar also has some truth in what he said.
There are still brave people who do not believe in evil: "You are Danes, why don't we make gestures?"
"You? Weak and thin." Ragnar wouldn't even look at this person, which was a great provocation.
The islanders also lacked fun, especially after holding back a winter. Apart from being busy giving birth to children, what else can they do?
With the help of alcohol, an archipelago will try to compete with the guys of Ragnar. The so-called fight in a group fight with bare hands depends on who is the first to win.
When things became like this, Spuyute didn't want to stop it. He needed to let the islanders really know the fierceness of the real Danish fighters.
The two sides really fought with Jiu Jin, and the result was obvious. The islanders who took the lead in the booze were knocked down by their fists, and they announced their surrender.
Thanks to this group fight, Ragner proved the real Danes with his fists. So what is the reason for the Danish failures before? Just because the Ross ship is tough? This is partly because of the fact that the old Ross is stronger than the Danish fighters.
The islanders were convinced, and then they were willing to calm down and listen to Ragnar's attitude.
"I have a close relationship with Prince Rose, and I have broken away from any relationship with the King of Denmark! Brothers, find out your enemies. You have to rob in a planned way, don’t rob them. For example, the people of Bernholm clearly It's an object that can be attracted..."
When Ragnar said these words, Spuyute couldn't sit still again: "Wait, you are saying good things to the guy on that island."
"Not a good thing."
"that is."
Ragner frowned and shook his head: "As far as I know, the people of Bernholm are not loyal to that Horrick. Horrick is a dog raised by the Frankish kingdom, and Denmark under this man's rule is to give the Franks As a slave. I opposed him and was attacked and many people were killed. I think the people of Bernholm also rejected the man’s rule. I also know that at least five lords have left with their own people. "
"You mean that Bernholm has left Denmark?" Spuut asked.
"Perhaps. I don't know, but I don't want to see you rob them. They are the ones who can be attracted. I think the prince is here, and he will agree with me."
What Ragnar said is not convincing. Since he said it can be pulled, why not let him try?
The first big target that the Pirate Fleet encounters westward must be Bernholm. The locals are indeed not Danes. At this time Earl Spuyut had the highest decision-making power, and the same Ragnar also had the discretionary power.
Rurik appointed two royal pirate gangs. Whether they act freely or work in partnership is voluntary.
After all, Spuyute is a famous explorer who can drink strong alcohol with the prince. Wouldn't it be too cheap to be a pirate with the islanders?
He knows that the kingdom likes the surrender of ethnic groups outside the territory, and also expands its sphere of influence by this means. If the people of Birnholm raise the island to make a contribution, wouldn't they be a miracle?
"Ragna," he said.
"I am here."
"You can try."
"What are you trying to do? Let Bernholm ally with us? Let us go to the sea further west without worries?"
Spuyute shook his head: "No. I want you to try to persuade them to surrender. Don't you have confidence, you should do it yourself. I..." He deliberately looked at Ragnar's eyes again: "I believe You are a real man."
Ragnar hates others most in his life for saying that he is not a man. He still has a faint pain in his fist, but he is facing doubts. This is not something that can be solved with a fist.
"Okay! We rushed to that sea area, I tried to go to the island and chat with the locals."
Ragner’s appearance today did one thing. It pointed out that the Danes were different from the Danes, and Prince Rus’ entangled attitude towards the Kingdom of Denmark. The so-called kingdom wanted to end the endless hostility, but Some stupid Danish lords are looking for fault in the north.
Now that there is a goal, the fleet is dispatched.
Ragnar's previous thesis that "Rose's advantage is based on ships and crossbows", first of all, he believed in this. Because his current identity is the mercenary of Prince Ross, the facts of dressing up and manipulating the big ship prove everything.
The three boats lined up and swaggered towards the target sea area.
Sure enough, there was a fishing boat ahead, and the boat was running for life.
The three ships all communicated in semaphore, and Ragnar's subordinates used some of the knowledge they had learned in Shilla Fort.
When the target was found, the Salmon Chief was running wildly, but Ragnar's Stonewall flashed its semaphore.
"Boss, the Danes want us not to attack." shouted the sailor.
Sipuyoute itched his hand and gritted his teeth when he saw it, "Just do what he wants. Let's rush over and intercept the fishing boat!"
If you want to attack, the sideboard torsion slingshot advances a salvo, and the fishing boat will leak and sink.
The Salmon Chief passed by, and a high maneuvering horizontally in front of the fishing boat, a slight collision occurred, and the trembling fishermen found themselves unable to retreat.
In this way, the two subsequent boats also surrounded, and the fishing boat had no chance to escape.
The fishermen had no choice but to surrender and demanded that the herring be caught in exchange for their lives.
"Change your life? Fortunately, Bornholm, you won't die today." Spuyute said so, filled with disdain.
The three boats approached each other, put down the plank Ragnar and boarded the largest boat, and saw the three prisoners.
He opened his mouth and said, "You are islanders? What is your attitude towards the Danes?"
The captive was busy begging for mercy, and it was inexplicable to hear a Ross man say this.
"Are you islanders surrendering to the King of Denmark?"
He asked, and the captive's mouth trembled, all claiming to have nothing to do with Denmark.
Ragnar shrugged and looked at Spuyute again: "Look, I said, they have nothing to do with the King of Denmark."
"Are you kidding me? They were all scared, so naturally they followed your words."
"Maybe."
After all, Ragnar has identified himself in two places: "Fisherman! You don’t know. Tell you, I’m from the Danish Stonewall tribe, the famous wool pants Ragnar, my father is the Ring Sigurd, I was fifteen years old. Even if I chop off the heads of two lords, I chopped off the head of Svealan."
Then a fisherman suddenly realized: "Ah! You! Ragnar the skull beheaded? It's you? You beheaded King Svearan's head?!"
"Yes, it's me."
"Then you...you are obviously a Danish, obviously a nobleman. We have all heard the people who fled to the island say that your Stonewall tribe was killed by Horrick. You are still alive?"
"Absurd! Look at my side, we are clearly alive. Our alliance with Ross is to counter-attack Horrick. Wait a minute! There are still people on the island?"
Feeling that the fishermen who have found a life-saving straw know that their value lies in the information they have, they are smart people, so they volunteered: "We are very useful. If you want to communicate with the leaders of the island, we can be a guide. "
"Very good!" Ragnar slapped his thigh: "I'm waiting for your words. I want to meet the nobles on the island in person, especially the exiles."
From the standpoint of Ragnar, he has always had his own ideas. Although he is now the royal pirate of Prince Rus, Rurik has already made it clear that he will support himself in competing to be the new king of Denmark.
Be the new king of Denmark, change the anxious situation in the north, and unite everyone's strength to fight against Frank!
Ragnar and Liurik had a deep exchange. I believe that Liurik was busy conquering the East and only had a lot of trade desires for the vigorous and vigorous Denmark.
He didn’t really want to rob, but used the power of the Rus to recruit troops. He wanted to build an anti-King Horrick army, intending to clean up the Frankish forces in Jutland and surrounding islands with their lackeys. .
Then there are so many people on Bornholm Island, and they are the ones who should be drawn in.
The three boats dragged the captive fishing boat towards the island. This move scared the islanders into thinking that the Rus were about to land and fight.
The Ross people are already so arrogant? Is it finally going to land and kill?
Up to now, the island with more than 10,000 people is mainly due to the endless harassment of the Ross people~www.novelhall.com~ fishermen who are so angry that they fish for a living are forced to immigrate to the north or enter Denmark. They rushed to large settlements such as Silverburg at the southern tip of Scandinavia, or flew directly to Oslo and Bergen.
Even though a group of Danish exiles have arrived, the population has plummeted to more than 6,000.
This number is not too small in this era, it is the reappearance of the pirate ship of the Rus people, which really angered the fishermen.
Various families, associations, and exile tribes spontaneously organized manpower, and in this one thousand soldiers rushed to the beach.
Ragnar had only two entourages, three boats dropped anchor near the sea, and the three floated to the island in fishermen’s fishing boats.
Before departure, Ragnar also said that if he has not returned for three days, it means that the islanders have already moved their knives. Then, as a complete commander, Spuyut will directly attack the port of the locals and destroy their livelihoods. Paddle the boat and blockade further.
He was betting on his life, even if he saw a shield wall made of round shields appearing on the coast.

For those Estonians who recently floated to Saaremaa Island, the Rose they learned from the locals was a different look.For the various tribes of Estonia, the Rus are still a mysterious existence, and they have no intention of sending official envoys who can represent them to do the ADF.A small group of Estonians have long since separated from their tribe and become fishermen and pirates on Saaremaa Island. Now the brothers have returned to Ross, and everyone is looking forward to the implementation of the sea robbery in the new year.A deep bay on Saaremaa Island was designated as an anchorage, and three ships dropped anchor.This island has welcomed their EarlMaster Spuyute!"Dad!" a toddler greeted his little hand milkily.That was the one-year-old son in Sipuyu District. He took his cub and kissed and nibble.People welcomed their earl to land, and as soon as they landed on the island, they asked when the fleet would set off for the robbery.Another group of people who disembarked also attracted everyone's attention. Ragnar, who was headed by the Danish nobles, surprised everyone.Danish nobility? He and his buddies are clearly wearing Ross-style shirts! Also holding the crossbow of the Ross people.It was also speculated that these Danes were mercenaries of Lord Rose.It was Spuyut and Tralang who explained it, and Ragner showed up to say that he was strangled to death by the cradle of misunderstanding.I was ordered to cooperate in the robbery, regardless of where the brothers came from, everyone is the royal pirate of the Duchy of Ross.Now, it is indeed a good time to open the sea and rob.The island of Saaremaa has been fortified. The strong fortress like a tortoise shell gives the pirates a sense of absolute security and makes them willing to do things very well.The three ships unloaded a large amount of supplies, and a group of ragged guys quickly put on uniform uniforms, so-called white robes stitched with blue patterns, and shirts made of white and blue linen mixed fabrics that were worn inside.The latter is the so-called sea soul shirt.Why are royal pirates? Their essence is still the Navy of the Duchy of Ross, so at least they should be formal in their dress.The mental outlook of everyone has changed drastically, and their ambitions have been further expanded.They ate and drank in the fort, but got together to discuss big plans.Someone shouted loudly: "Let's grab the Danes' ship and also grab Bernholm. Let's focus on grabbing Bernholm!"As soon as this person said that everyone followed up, Spuyute chanted the victory slogan when he saw the grand occasion holding a glass.Ragnar laughed, but he didn't plan to do that.Spuyute is the master of the island, and he has the right to decide who to hack first this year.He slapped his thighs vigorously: "It's all quiet, now listen to me. Seeing that you are so enthusiastic, we chased after the fishing boats of the Bernholm people. Anyway, they are servants of the Danes, so let's continue the crusade. !"At least there is no risk to crusade against Bernholm Island. Everyone has attacked it many times in the past. This time we continue to do it. If we can lure the main force of Denmark out, wouldn't it be indiscriminate killing with the combat power of the three big ships?Spuyut pounded Ragnar: "Now, listen to what our Danish lord has to say."Upon hearing "Danish Lord", the enthusiastic crowd all shut up. It is true that they have been clamoring and killing the Danes, a real Dan is sitting here, and it is obviously inappropriate to say those things."What can I say?" Ragnar said with a wry smile: "I thought you pirates would really trouble the King of Denmark, but I didn't expect to attack the weak.""Are you taunting us?" a drunk guy murmured.Of course Ragnar wouldn't let: "I just look down on you! I thought it would be strong to kill the Danes? If you really fight with the army of the King of Denmark, what is your chance of winning the group of pirates? Don't use crossbows and big ships, just look at you. A group of thin guys can only be defeated."These words of choking fire caused discomfort to everyone, but wise people think about it carefully, I am afraid that Chief Ragnar also has some truth in what he said.There are still brave people who do not believe in evil: "You are Danes, why don't we make gestures?""You? Weak and thin." Ragnar wouldn't even look at this person, which was a great provocation.The islanders also lacked fun, especially after holding back a winter. Apart from being busy giving birth to children, what else can they do?With the help of alcohol, an archipelago will try to compete with the guys of Ragnar. The so-called fight in a group fight with bare hands depends on who is the first to win.When things became like this, Spuyute didn't want to stop it. He needed to let the islanders really know the fierceness of the real Danish fighters.The two sides really fought with Jiu Jin, and the result was obvious. The islanders who took the lead in the booze were knocked down by their fists, and they announced their surrender.Thanks to this group fight, Ragner proved the real Danes with his fists. So what is the reason for the Danish failures before? Just because the Ross ship is tough? This is partly because of the fact that the old Ross is stronger than the Danish fighters.The islanders were convinced, and then they were willing to calm down and listen to Ragnar's attitude."I have a close relationship with Prince Rose, and I have broken away from any relationship with the King of Denmark! Brothers, find out your enemies. You have to rob in a planned way, don't rob them. For example, the people of Bernholm clearly It's an object that can be attracted..."When Ragnar said these words, Spuyute couldn't sit still again: "Wait, you are saying good things to the guy on that island.""Not a good thing.""that is."Ragner frowned and shook his head: "As far as I know, the people of Bernholm are not loyal to that Horrick. Horrick is a dog raised by the Frankish kingdom, and Denmark under this man's rule is to give the Franks As a slave. I opposed him and was attacked and many people were killed. I think the people of Bernholm also rejected the man's rule. I also know that at least five lords have left with their own people. ""You mean that Bernholm has left Denmark?" Spuut asked."Perhaps. I don't know, but I don't want to see you rob them. They are the ones who can be attracted. I think the prince is here, and he will agree with me."What Ragnar said is not convincing. Since he said it can be pulled, why not let him try?The first big target that the Pirate Fleet encounters westward must be Bernholm. The locals are indeed not Danes. At this time Earl Spuyut had the highest decision-making power, and the same Ragnar also had the discretionary power.Rurik appointed two royal pirate gangs. Whether they act freely or work in partnership is voluntary.After all, Spuyute is a famous explorer who can drink strong alcohol with the prince. Wouldn't it be too cheap to be a pirate with the islanders?He knows that the kingdom likes the surrender of ethnic groups outside the territory, and also expands its sphere of influence by this means. If the people of Birnholm raise the island to make a contribution, wouldn't they be a miracle?"Ragna," he said."I am here.""You can try.""What are you trying to do? Let Bernholm ally with us? Let us go to the sea further west without worries?"Spuyute shook his head: "No. I want you to try to persuade them to surrender. Don't you have confidence, you should do it yourself. I..." He deliberately looked at Ragnar's eyes again: "I believe You are a real man."Ragnar hates others most in his life for saying that he is not a man. He still has a faint pain in his fist, but he is facing doubts. This is not something that can be solved with a fist."Okay! We rushed to that sea area, I tried to go to the island and chat with the locals."Ragner's appearance today did one thing. It pointed out that the Danes were different from the Danes, and Prince Rus' entangled attitude towards the Kingdom of Denmark. The so-called kingdom wanted to end the endless hostility, but Some stupid Danish lords are looking for fault in the north.Now that there is a goal, the fleet is dispatched.Ragnar's previous thesis that "Rose's advantage is based on ships and crossbows", first of all, he believed in this. Because his current identity is the mercenary of Prince Ross, the facts of dressing up and manipulating the big ship prove everything.The three boats lined up and swaggered towards the target sea area.Sure enough, there was a fishing boat ahead, and the boat was running for life.The three ships all communicated in semaphore, and Ragnar's subordinates used some of the knowledge they had learned in Shilla Fort.When the target was found, the Salmon Chief was running wildly, but Ragnar's Stonewall flashed its semaphore."Boss, the Danes want us not to attack." shouted the sailor.Sipuyoute itched his hand and gritted his teeth when he saw it, "Just do what he wants. Let's rush over and intercept the fishing boat!"If you want to attack, the sideboard torsion slingshot advances a salvo, and the fishing boat will leak and sink.The Salmon Chief passed by, and a high maneuvering horizontally in front of the fishing boat, a slight collision occurred, and the trembling fishermen found themselves unable to retreat.In this way, the two subsequent boats also surrounded, and the fishing boat had no chance to escape.The fishermen had no choice but to surrender and demanded that the herring be caught in exchange for their lives."Change your life? Fortunately, Bornholm, you won't die today." Spuyute said so, filled with disdain.The three boats approached each other, put down the plank Ragnar and boarded the largest boat, and saw the three prisoners.He opened his mouth and said, "You are islanders? What is your attitude towards the Danes?"The captive was busy begging for mercy, and it was inexplicable to hear a Ross man say this."Are you islanders surrendering to the King of Denmark?"He asked, and the captive's mouth trembled, all claiming to have nothing to do with Denmark.Ragnar shrugged and looked at Spuyute again: "Look, I said, they have nothing to do with the King of Denmark.""Are you kidding me? They were all scared, so naturally they followed your words.""Maybe."After all, Ragnar has identified himself in two places: "Fisherman! You don't know. Tell you, I'm from the Danish Stonewall tribe, the famous wool pants Ragnar, my father is the Ring Sigurd, I was fifteen years old. Even if I chop off the heads of two lords, I chopped off the head of Svealan."Then a fisherman suddenly realized: "Ah! You! Ragnar the skull beheaded? It's you? You beheaded King Svearan's head?!""Yes, it's me.""Then you...you are obviously a Danish, obviously a nobleman. We have all heard the people who fled to the island say that your Stonewall tribe was killed by Horrick. You are still alive?""Absurd! Look at my side, we are clearly alive. Our alliance with Ross is to counter-attack Horrick. Wait a minute! There are still people on the island?"Feeling that the fishermen who have found a life-saving straw know that their value lies in the information they have, they are smart people, so they volunteered: "We are very useful. If you want to communicate with the leaders of the island, we can be a guide. ""Very good!" Ragnar slapped his thigh: "I'm waiting for your words. I want to meet the nobles on the island in person, especially the exiles."From the standpoint of Ragnar, he has always had his own ideas. Although he is now the royal pirate of Prince Rus, Rurik has already made it clear that he will support himself in competing to be the new king of Denmark.Be the new king of Denmark, change the anxious situation in the north, and unite everyone's strength to fight against Frank!Ragnar and Liurik had a deep exchange. I believe that Liurik was busy conquering the East and only had a lot of trade desires for the vigorous and vigorous Denmark.He didn't really want to rob, but used the power of the Rus to recruit troops. He wanted to build an anti-King Horrick army, intending to clean up the Frankish forces in Jutland and surrounding islands with their lackeys. .Then there are so many people on Bornholm Island, and they are the ones who should be drawn in.The three boats dragged the captive fishing boat towards the island. This move scared the islanders into thinking that the Rus were about to land and fight.The Ross people are already so arrogant? Is it finally going to land and kill?Up to now, the island with more than 10,000 people is mainly due to the endless harassment of the Ross people~www.novelhall.com~ fishermen who are so angry that they fish for a living are forced to immigrate to the north or enter Denmark. They rushed to large settlements such as Silverburg at the southern tip of Scandinavia, or flew directly to Oslo and Bergen.Even though a group of Danish exiles have arrived, the population has plummeted to more than 6,000.This number is not too small in this era, it is the reappearance of the pirate ship of the Rus people, which really angered the fishermen.Various families, associations, and exile tribes spontaneously organized manpower, and in this one thousand soldiers rushed to the beach.Ragnar had only two entourages, three boats dropped anchor near the sea, and the three floated to the island in fishermen's fishing boats.Before departure, Ragnar also said that if he has not returned for three days, it means that the islanders have already moved their knives. Then, as a complete commander, Spuyut will directly attack the port of the locals and destroy their livelihoods. Paddle the boat and blockade further.He was betting on his life, even if he saw a shield wall made of round shields appearing on the coast.
