Rise of Rurik

The Danish Viking army was enjoying their feast. Early in the morning, thousands of warriors were lying on the beach. They reveled into the night, and now the sun is out and they are still sleeping.

Finally, people came to wake up one after another.

The first thing they wake up is to throw firewood into the extinguishing campfire, and then slaughter some cattle and sheep to eat fresh barbecue.

Some people picked up the dead bodies of prisoners and threw them directly into the sea to let them float.

The prisoners who were still alive, they were disheveled in a trance, waiting for a terrible fate.

In contrast, Ragnar was out of anger, and he could not see that his subordinates enjoyed the prisoners. Because of his determination, the lives of the small group of captives controlled by his people are currently protected.

The next ones are the captives controlled by Oslo mercenaries. There is no language barrier in the entire region in this time and space, and the people of Oslo have promised to take them back to be wives and start a new life. The situation of this group of prisoners is not bad.

As for other tribes, it was a disaster.

The day before departure, the main task of the army on the beach was to count the spoils. Regardless of whether the ships are enough, the tribes participating in the battle will give part of the cattle and sheep as tribute to the lord Hafgen, and the rest is their own.

At this time, the small group of traveling merchants who were following the army started trading with the troops on the spot.

Even if all the captured ships are used, it is impossible to take the captured cattle and sheep back.

It is also impossible to rely on the mouth of the army to eat cattle and sheep in a short time.

The current situation can be described as miraculous, and the number of cattle and sheep captured far exceeds the number of troops.

The Gotland people’s proposal was to spend money to buy cattle and sheep, and they would drive them to the Gotaland Heights in the south. After all, the families of the Gotland people who participated in the war had many family members who acted as herdsmen in the Gotaland Heights.

Some cattle and sheep quickly completed the transaction, and many were stripped of their leather. As for the beef and mutton, it is roasted on a large scale as a ration for some time to come. Their logic is that when you spend money on leather, the money is made by treacherous leather merchants. If you get the chance to peel it, act immediately, dry it and tan it quickly, and make it into a cold-proof leather coat, and beef and mutton is also a rare good food.

In this way, Buluowan began to dye a wide range of blood and water, and the air was also filled with fishy smell, burnt smell, and even the aroma of barbecue fat.

In fact, Ragnar hopes to bring back all the cattle and sheep that his own people have seized. However, if he can bring back twenty sheep, it will be the sky. After this battle, ten of his men died, and more than thirty others were injured. After calming down, Ragnar felt that the so-called defenseless Ostara tribe would suffer a great loss if they were really prepared to go to war again.

Even so, he never forgot the idea of ​​going north to expand the results, but due to the status quo, he couldn't bring more than a hundred people to challenge.

The ship has a little more empty space, and it is quite suitable to house the captured woman and a handful of sheep captured.

Ragnar also began to do the same thing as his allies, namely slaughtering beef and leaving the hides behind. Luxury belongs to luxury, and when he saw the happy face of his subordinates, he was relieved a lot.

Even the captured women began to eat beef that belonged to their tribe.

The husband and father are dead, and he should have been martyred, but he was controlled by the Danes. At least, this small group of Danes seems to be gentler with the madman over there. The women's emotions eased slightly.

Ragnar did gather the prisoners under his control and promised them that each would become a member of the "Stonewall" tribe and start a new life.

Is there a better option?

If you don't want to commit suicide, you can only live as a Danish.

However, Ragner seems to have forgotten Hafgen's horrible determination.

After another carnival night, the sun became angry again, and another group of dead prisoners were thrown into the sea. Hafgen did not restrain his direct subordinates, let alone the cruel revenge spontaneously perpetrated by the Gotlanders.

After all, the Ostara tribe needs to be wiped from the ground, and there should only be a layer of coke and the enemy's corpse. He felt that his decision fully explained the power of the Danish leader.

So, there is one more thing to be solved before setting off.

Early in the morning, Hafgen's messenger approached Ragner's camp and announced the leader's decision.

"What? Put them to death? Why?" Ragnar was taken aback. "I have declared that they are our people."

The messenger couldn't listen to Ragnar's words at all, and ordered: "This is the order of the lord! Is it that you have to resist?! Now hand over all the prisoners."

"but!"

"Please execute the order immediately. We don't want to wait long."

A messenger in a mere guilty way, is it here? Ragnar was not frightened.

He raised his chest and yelled: "Then let the leader come himself! Anyway...I don't have many prisoners in my hand anyway."

"Okay! I remember what you said, wait for the lord's thunderous fury!" After that, the messenger temporarily withdrew in angrily.

Ragnar learned that the leader hadn't let go of even a group of women. This kind of thing was done by men? Simply a lunatic.

However, in the current situation, I really want to protect the captives, that is, what is he doing against the leader. Of course you have to face it! I just need to steal it for the job.

Ragnar quickly gathered the thirty prisoners under his control, picked out five obviously older ones, and set them aside.

The remaining twenty-five people...

Ragnar saw that many women basically had special wounds and blood stains on their arms. This is just a trick of lettering on the slaves played by his subordinates. If there is time, it is a tattoo. With these marks, he feels that things have become simpler.

"Brothers, you all have new slaves. Now follow my order and shave their hair."

Suddenly, the public was in an uproar.

Ragnar gritted his teeth: "Didn't you hear? Shave all their hair."

A brawny man couldn’t stand it, and stepped forward and asked: "My lord, as for? Even a slave, that’s a woman. Shaving her hair is killing her. I’m going to take the woman back to be the first. Two wives."

"You!" The fierce Ragnar suddenly pinched the neck of his men with one hand, and said fiercely: "Do you think I don't understand? Now that Hafgen is going to kill all the prisoners, and that guy is not going to live. Listen, Now the only thing that can save your second wife’s life is to shave her clean. Then, change her into a man’s clothes and put on a man’s helmet. They are in our team, and Hafgen will not count us personally. how many people."

As Ragnar told his men the truth, the puzzled fighters immediately proceeded to deal with their women.

Due to the urgency of the situation, the tactics of this group of brawny men were very rough.

The brawny man just now, he grabbed his woman and dragged it aside, pinched his neck with one hand, pinched her face, and held a dagger with his right hand directly against her scalp.

The woman was screaming desperately, kicking her legs.

"Shut up! Don't shut up again, I will cut your throat now!"

Frightened by this, the woman immediately calmed down. She closed her eyes and the tears couldn't stop streaming. And her long golden hair was cut off one after another, leaving basically only a cyan scalp in the end.

It can be said that even this strong man has never seen the appearance of a woman's scalp.

Just as the women were crying, they became bald one by one, and many of them suffered scalp injuries. Compared with bleeding wounds, their hearts are bleeding.

On the battlefield, it makes sense to take away the enemy's helmet, mail armor, axe, and other weapons as seizures. Ragnar's tribes only obtained a few cattle and sheep, but they confiscated a lot of weapons and armor.

Now these weapon armors are used for unexpected purposes.

Those poor, soulless women, they put on men's leather armor, and then restrained their waists by belts, and finally hung an axe on the belts. They also wear a bronze helmet that can cover half of their faces. In order to be realistic, after all women were forced to wipe off their tears, they were also coated with a layer of carbon on their faces.

They lost all their hair, helmets covered most of their faces, leather armor and men's gowns, all of which completely covered their feminine characteristics.

In a critical moment, Ragnar can only sacrifice part and save most. He felt that what he had done was perfect.

After a while, as the messenger said, Hafgen really came in person.

Today, Hafgen wears a lock armor and his beloved ferret coat. His helmet is also hung with a golden ring to show nobility. ,

He came arrogantly, just to ask questions.

Seeing that more than 30 people came from the other party at once, Ragnar winked at his subordinates and pulled the five old women selected.

Hafgen raised his chin, arrogantly looking at people from his nostrils: "The messenger told me that you refused to hand over all the prisoners."

"No such thing." Ragnar responded with a grimace, and then snapped his fingers. Five old women with the same grimace were pushed over by his men. "As you can see, we are very sorry that we caught this prisoner."

"What? That's it?!"

With five wrinkled old guys, Hafgen also instinctively felt that Ragnar was lying.

"Yes, that's it."

"That's not right!"

"Oh, you can go to my camp to see. You see, my people are here. If there are other women inside, how can you escape your eyes."

Hafgen glanced at it, and he looked around at only people dressed in warriors, and each of them was full of traces of fighting. He felt that these guys were not castrated monks, and that young women would be as crazy as the bulls in April. Regarding this matter, Ragnar should not have lied.

Ragnar saw that the situation was good, and deliberately complained: "Compared to other tribes, we have captured the least."

"Really?" Hafgen looked into Ragner's eyes: "Ragner, son of Sigurd, you got the true honor, and the gods have seen it! The gods are fair, so you just catch After these five old women." After that, he ordered his subordinates: "These five people, take away."

Just look at the five old women. They were stubborn and did not resist the moment they were taken away.

Because everything is discussed.

Compared to other Danes, this group of Danes looks different. In order to protect the remaining 25 people, these five old women decided to sacrifice themselves. Even if the Ostrava tribe is destroyed, there will still be a small number of women surviving, and there is still something to expect.

In the end, Hafgen said: "Soon, all the prisoners will be executed. You guys also prepare, we are about to return."

Many tribes do not have the eagerness of Ragnar, and those commanders dare not rashly defy the orders of the leader. They handed over the captives they controlled one after another, and the captives were forced to gather at the beach. They basically knew the fate of death and fell into complete despair.

Hafgen ordered the Gotlanders to surrender all the prisoners. Although it was a pity, since the leader has spoken, everyone can only do it.

There is only a group of people, they resolutely refuse.

That is the mercenary in Oslo.

This group of Norwegians came up with a pre-deployment agreement. The so-called trophies of the Oslo people do not need to be turned in.

Thinking that he did have such a public promise, and thinking that future trade with the Norwegians would require these Oslo people to match up, Hafgen only spared the slaves captured by the Oslo people.

Next, it was just a violent trick by a savage guy, and Ragnar had no intention of observing and supervising at the execution site.

Because he is really not ashamed of what the leader Hafgen is doing.

They all wiped out other people's tribes, yet they still want to completely wipe out the surviving prisoners? ! Everyone lives in this sea area, do things have to be so perfect?

In fact, Hafgen didn't want to watch the execution. He gave orders to his men and stayed in his tent.

Screams came from outside the book. Those poor people, Ostra’s survivors, were all beheaded by the Danish army.

Unlike the Ostara soldiers who were cremated, the Danish army threw the bodies of the executed directly into the sea, which had already been stained red by the blood of cattle and sheep.

The whole world became scarlet, everything was so magical.

Even the Danish soldiers and the Gotland soldiers who were watching the execution, felt in their hearts that the leader had made the wrong decision.

Many people began to silently give the leader Hafgen another nickname of "woman killer".

This is really not a good nickname.

"My lord, the matter is over." A subordinate broke into Hafgen's tent.

"Done? Good! It's time to go back. Let's go."

As soon as Hafgen got out of the tent, he was taken aback by the sight in front of him. The prisoners who were executed were thrown into the sea, and some of them had begun to float.

In this situation, he couldn't help but wonder, maybe he did too much?

At this moment, the sun was high again, and he subconsciously opened his eyes to the sun, and suddenly shouted: "Hey! Valhalla gods, you have seen it! It's not my cruelty. They destroyed Sikkenberg first. It was their fault! So I completely destroyed Ostara today."

He was in a much better mood after roaring.

Like other tribes, Ragnar began the final preparations before evacuation. A large number of confiscated materials were thrown on, and there were also those captured women disguised as warriors whose helmets concealed their grief.

They were ordered to sit on the boat, and after setting sail, they were also asked to participate in paddling.

Ragnar did place twenty sheep on the boat, and he sent someone to urgently mow some grass, which is the food for the sheep to float on the sea. The rest are waiting. The meal during the voyage is a large amount of roast beef prepared in advance.

The huge coalition forces killed more than 1,000 cows and more than 500 sheep in a short period of time. Almost all the cattle and sheep that were seized fell into the hands of the Gotlanders.

The coalition forces also paid the price of more than one hundred deaths. The vast majority of the war dead were Gotland people, and it was them who captured the most in the war.

The Gotland people are very satisfied with the gains after the battle, but this place must be dangerous and evil, and the ghosts of the prisoners who were deliberately executed by the lord will mourn forever. Some Gotlanders began to drive cattle and sheep to the south, looking for their relatives to the south. More people took the lead in returning with fresh cow hides and sheepskins.

Close behind are the Oslo mercenaries.

It can be said that when they came, the Danish coalition formed a mighty and orderly fleet, and when they withdrew, they really went their separate ways.

Ragnar saw that the sea water had turned red, and it was able to dye the world like this, which is what Hafgen did.

The ship was pushed back to the sea, and Ragnar gave an order, and a small fleet began to evacuate.

"Damn, we seem to be rowing in the underworld."

"No! We are not dead, this is not the underworld."

"But the sea is red. Can you see this scene in other places?"

The people on the flagship are talking about it, they have never seen that blood can soak the main sea.

More terrifying things are yet to come!

The oars dialed some suspicious floating objects, and a closer look turned out to be headless bodies, specifically women's bodies. In an instant, everyone understood what was going on.

Especially those women who disguised themselves as men, they knew that all their people were floating, and they couldn't help crying loudly.

Only at this time did they realize that getting their hair cut off is better than having their heads cut off by another group of people floating in the sea.

The fire in the hometown of Ostara has been extinguished, and only the burnt remains of the lively fishing village, as well as the bay of Yinhong. Everything is over, Ostara has become a terrifying underworld.

They were struggling to paddle in pain, and they simply disturbed the rhythm of the boat they were on. They just want to leave here quickly and never come back.

The Danish army's raid lasted only three days, plus the time they wandered at sea. When Ragner returned to his hometown, nearly two weeks passed. The Danish army headed by Hafgen brought too many trophies and returned to their home port one day later than Ragnar.

Ragna returned to the port of his tribe on May 25th of the Julian calendar. He didn't care about washing his face when he went ashore, let alone saying hello to his newly pregnant wife, so he went straight to the leader's longhouse to find his father, and couldn't wait to explain the terrible experience.

Sigurd of the Ring was also shocked.

"A woman assassin? I really didn't expect it, the lion Hafgen, it was so."

"Dad, that man does not deserve the title of lion. He is not a great warrior, but a despicable woman killer." Ragnar emphasized angrily.

"how about you?"

"Me? I killed the leader of the Ostala people~www.NovelMTL.com~ and captured the leader's sword." He said, he motioned to his subordinates to hand over a sword with a gemstone hilt but incompletely bent.

At a glance, Sigurd knew that its owner had a noble identity and a **** battle. "Oh, it seems that you have killed another noble warrior. You are the hero."

Ragnar continued: "The leader begged me to spare his two granddaughters before he died."

"You did it?" Sigurd asked hurriedly.

"I let them go. Whether the two children survive or not depends on the will of God. I also saved twenty-five prisoners. I opposed Hafgen’s determination. The Ostara people are very brave, but they I was defeated by the Alliance army before I was ready. I took my brothers to fight the most sinister battle, the woman assassin Hafgen. He landed when the battle was basically over. He thought the glory of victory belonged to him. I have protected 25 young women and they will join us. I think they will give birth to some brave people for us."

"You did a good job." Sigurd sighed, feeling relieved. He patted his son on the shoulder: "Now I'm going out to see and see how many good things you brought back to me.
