Those fleeing people flee south along the stream. They don't know the true strength of the Rus, but they know that they are a group of terrifying enemies, and they are more difficult to deal with than the Karelians.
The messengers scrambled and fled like the core of Tavastia, yelling in the center of its worship.
The bad news soon reached the ears of the leader Watkad. How could he believe that the thousand army sent out was half dead after the first battle?
The bad news was spreading. The people who passed the news rushed along the forest road. In just one day, most of the villages in the tribal alliance had learned of the news. Although the news is too crazy, a large number of immigrants who have fled back are all talking the same thing in a panic.
Do not! The situation is heading towards the irreversible development of the disaster!
Because no matter whether the Rus people really want to launch a war against the core area of Tavastia, at least they have this ability and probably have this motive. Exchange of thoughts and whereabouts, if the Tavastias learn that there is a tribe nearby that is much weaker than themselves, will they be friendly? Of course it is conquered by force!
Although the words of the messenger and the returning immigrant are different, their core meaning is the same.
The leader Watkard heard about the incident like a bolt from the blue, and a thousand reinforcements could not solve the matter. What should I do next?
He instinctively thought of continuing to increase troops, and he led the army to continue fighting against the dangerous Russ!
Before that, he urgently summoned the leaders of all the villages, hoping that many wise men could brainstorm and come up with a better way to defend against the enemy.
There were more than 30 people sitting in the huge shed at once, and anxiety was written on everyone's faces. It was obviously a gathering of spring flowers, and the cold winter seemed to be killed by the Ross people who came across the sea.
But the question also comes, who are the Ross people?
Then a village leader stood up and asked in public: "Who really knows these Rus people? Are they called by this name? Are they also a kind of Varange?"
The messenger who was invited to the meeting was full of affirmation, and swore to all the noble leaders that what he saw and heard was true.
"They...are the Varangans! They are the Varangans who attacked the Suomi people in the south and arrested them as slaves."
"Really?" Another leader asked the messenger: "We didn't provoke them."
The messenger continued: "Provoked. We hit their pet."
"It's the people of science and culture? What are these? Just because of this, we are going to be driven to extinction?" The village chief who was speaking really didn't understand.
Most village leaders feel puzzled. Everyone’s understanding of the Rus has just begun. Even though they suffered a disastrous defeat after the first encounter, how does this make sense?
For a while, everyone was divided, and some people stood up in this noisy environment.
The bald head of the old village stood up with a wooden staff and yelled: "To the east are the Karelians, who keep invading our territory. Now there is another Rus, and they want to wipe us out. If this is the case, we are. Isn’t it at the juncture of life and death"
"Then hit it!" Someone crushed a piece of wood to make it clear.
The atmosphere needs someone to drive. Since the bald old man hoped to carry the war to the end on behalf of his village, other leaders have followed up.
Originally, the leader Watkad thought that someone would shrink back because of cowardice, but now it seems that he is worried.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, where can you retire? To the east is the territory of the old enemy, to the north are the aggressive Rus people who suddenly emerged from the north, and to the south are the long-term and harmonious Suomi people. If it really retreats, but also retreat to the territory of the Suomi people, then friends will not have to do it.
But wait a minute! How could Tavastia not win Suomi's support? Assuming that Tavastia is decayed or even completely defeated after the war, this area is the world of the Rus invaders, and eventually the Suomi will become the slaves of the Rus. Besides, it's not that the Ross people haven't attacked Suomi.
Watkad thought of a strategy to win reinforcements, but Suomi's reinforcements were unlikely to appear in a short time.
Now that everyone has decided to fight back against the Ruths, Tavastia must rely on his own strength to defeat the enemy.
Many village leaders have reached a consensus, and Watkad, who is the leader, stood up in compliance with the atmosphere, knowing that there was no need for the meeting to continue.
"My friends, maybe this is the most dangerous moment in Tavastia. My brother Vatyara will never lie, nor will our compatriots who have fled back. If our brother who stayed in the north is defeated, then It is our turn to destroy. If a war breaks out in our territory, whether we win or not, we will pay a huge loss. War is inevitable, let the war unfold outside the territory! I decided to personally lead the army to crusade! "
Watkad is going to "privilege", and everyone agrees.
In this way, bigger problems ensue.
Tavastiya was just a tribal alliance, and Watkad was just a man of great prestige. This person's success lies in his military exploits. In this spring of life and death, as a war hero, of course he has to go out in person.
He was elected as the highest military officer by all the village chiefs, and the scene of this election really meant that the early Roman Senate elected Dick more.
If there is the highest, then there is the second. One named Nuoli (arrow cluster) is considered the second military commander.
This Nuoli is naturally one of the strong contenders for the position of the leader, and the Watkad and Watyala brothers do not oppose this person on weekdays. At this time of survival, this person leads a group of old and weak guarding territories mainly in The eastern defense against the possible sneak attack by the Karelians, Watkad was very pleased.
Although the Tavastia tribal alliance is very strong, it is only a strong player in the "Novice Village".
They have a crowd of 20,000, and they can summon 5,000 men who can take up arms, and they can summon a group of female fighters whenever necessary.
But who would expect a woman's combat effectiveness?
How many people should be sent north to defend against the enemy, Watkad called on all the villages to be strong and strong.
The war is related to how tempting to survive, and the leaders of the villages have unreserved support, and the news is passed on.
The father took his sons to the battlefield, and the woman roasted dried meat for the husband and son as dry food.
They unreservedly brought their best weapons, so that a large number of fighters are like this.
Warriors are covered in animal skins, often peaked by deer's leather. Some strong men have wolf or bear heads on their heads, and many more have their fluffy hair tied with a twine rope.
They each carry a short bear hunting spear, usually two or three javelins, a hand axe on their waist, and a wooden shield on their back. Many people still wear short bows and slowly clustered arrows in the leather quiver.
A very typical Tavastia warrior was like this. A large number of warriors began to gather in the priest's center. The people who had been inspired by the battle to the death infinite fighters had goodbye to their army. Everyone was full of confidence!
The priests dressed like wild beasts danced around the bonfire. After all, they made up the bronze mouthpieces and stirred the wonderful music to enhance the priestly atmosphere.
Ten sheep were slaughtered, and the blood of the sheep was sacrificed to the gods.
The most noble female driver wore a bear skin, and on her black hair was a crown woven with flying owl feathers. She knelt in front of the flames, spread her hands, and then kneeled down on her knees. Then she was kneeling and praying with a deep voice: "God of the earth! Give your child a great victory! Bless me, don’t let evil The enemy killed me, and let me kill all the enemies..."
The sheep were completely burned, as the so-called dust returns to the dust, the sheep turned into powder is regarded as a tribute to the earth god.
Of course there is a deeper symbolic meaning here, because the Tavastias have very similar beliefs with the Corvins and the northernmost deer breeders (Lap people). They believe in the sea of souls, and the "ocean" is under the earth. , Is also the home of all souls.
More than 3,000 fighters stood out, from fifteen to fifty years old, most of the Tavastia's new force were among them.
The remaining soldiers can still reach the scale of two thousand, which is to arm the ten-year-old boy to become a bow soldier to guard his home.
For this sudden war, Tavastia has mobilized more than 6,000 so-called fighters, and this is basically close to their limit.
There is light in the eyes of a famous soldier. For this sudden threat of war, Tavastia has bet on his own national fortune.
Is this sloppy? It is really sloppy.
This decisive battle to go to the battlefield does not seem to be a rational choice at all, even if the decisive battle, why not wait for work? But things have happened. The unruly Tavastias are unwilling to lose control of the newly conquered territories. They are even more unwilling to negotiate with their opponents. With a more miraculous vision, they realize that the Ruths are both deadly threats, and they are also deadly threats. Aware of the truth about the coldness of the lips and the teeth.
When the largest expeditionary force in Tavastia began to leave its village and gather in the most heavily guarded mountain fort, the sacrificial center, a group of messengers have entered the lake area in canoes. The next step is to enter the river and reach the Suomi people. In the core area, request the local chief chief to send troops to support.
In any case, facing the risk of war, Suomi merchants currently staying in Tavastia territory are ready to move. This group of guys didn’t think that the Tavastiyas who had assembled a powerful force would be defeated for the second time. On the contrary, they felt that they could assemble such a large army in two or three days. If this were to go south in a big way, Suomi (people of Huze) would be forced to Merged with Tavastia. The businessmen subconsciously fear these people, and subconsciously hope that the Ross people can dampen their spirits. As for the relationship between the Rus and the Varyag bandits, the Suomi fur traders didn't care, as if they were just bystanders of the war.
The Tavastiya Army completed the final rectification of the strongest expedition on the eighth day after the war alert of the messenger and the fleeing immigrants was issued.
The leader Watkad was in a mixed mood. The Ruths were able to fight his brother to lose half of his troops in a battle. This expedition defeated the Russ, even if he would have to win a miserable victory. This should be fate, and it is unrealistic to think about occupying new territories without bloodshed.
Since Tavastia and Ross both covet the resources of the Great Northern River Basin, let's fight a decisive battle.
Compared to other tribes, Tavastias are indeed better in military appearance.
All villages large and small have sent troops, and their leader or the leader’s sturdy son has become a military commander after another, leading the village’s Jianyong to the battlefield. Therefore, they took the village as a unit and formed all of a sudden. There are more than 30 armed groups of different sizes.
Among them, the armed group of the leader of Watkad has the most forces, but it is not much higher than the second. It is precisely because of the half-dozen power of the major large villages that Tavastia has continued its long-term and simple military democracy. Nowadays, it is the supreme military command, and Watkad is still not a monopoly on Dick.
They couldn't make the ranks of the ranks uniform, at least they formed more than 30 groups, facing the march of more than two hundred kilometers, everyone would not mess up the ranks.
When a rain came suddenly, people hid under the trees and continued to wait for the reindeer carrying supplies.
The rain lasted for three days, and when the fourth day was still misty and rainy, they dragged their wet bodies and ate the wet dried meat and continued to move.
The rain made the temperature drop so low that it made people tremble for a while.
This situation is undoubtedly a realistic meaning to pour cold water on the hot-headed Tavasti runners.
Some people say that this is not a good sign, and some people say that this is a trial of the God of the Earth for everyone.
The leader Watkad was very eager. He promoted such a message in the ranks: "This rain is the gods helping us! The Ruths who come from afar will become exhausted by the rain, the enemy is weak and we are still strong, and we will quickly defeat. They will kill them all and take away those iron weapons."
The key point of the information lies in the last reason, which is that everyone can obtain ironware through the battlefield. This is what they can do to grab it. People ignore the wetness of their bodies and become eager to try.
On the Ross side, the facts are as what Watkad said.
The Ross people considered the possibility of being exposed to the rain when they set out on the expedition, and there is no good way to deal with this matter.
Rurik is determined to besiege the occupied old gray squirrel hill fort. It is not that he has the ability to attack by force, but simply wants to encircle and fight for help.
Ross and allies are on guard. Even if a group of people go hunting in the forest to minimize material consumption, most of the soldiers still take root on the edge of the forest to monitor the every move of the mountain fort.
When dark clouds began to appear in the sky, the Russ hurriedly started large-scale logging, and then created a large number of simple shacks in the forest. More than a dozen people gathered in a shack to shelter from the rain.
It can be said that Rurik’s situation is much better. His tent blocked most of the rain. However, he had to be accompanied by dampness and coldness these days when it rained.
The rain was simply a gift to the defenders of the mountain fort, and Vatyara, who was trapped, knelt in the rain and thanked God. The defenders of the mountain castle knew that the forest was all enemies, and they believed in the fact that "reinforcements were already on the way".
Those filthy and terrible things were washed away by rain, and a large number of pottery urns were placed in the open space in the mountain fort to become an excellent water container.
People can skip meals for a long period of time, but a short period of dehydration will cause people to lose their ability to fight. This rain is like nectar, which objectively improves the ability of the lone army of Tavastia in the mountain fort.
The rain finally came to an end, and the appearance of the sun caused a thick fog!
The trapped beast did not use the fog to escape, but feared the bloodthirsty enemies hidden in the fog.
The fog dissipated and the forest was quickly evaporating in the sun.
Thanks to this untimely rain~www.novelhall.com~, Rurik, who originally hoped that the Oulu River would be a little calmer, would allow the long boat to enter the river smoothly.
Of course the Ross people have the strength to maintain the siege for a period of time. The icing on the cake is that on the second day after the rain completely ended, three long boats turned against the turbulent river water and took a batch of slightly pickled cod meat. , And a boat of slightly damp oats arrived at the Rus camp.
Their mode of transportation really surprised Rurik—it was a tracker.
The people who built Covenstad really thought of ingenious means in order to implement the support mission. Lurik soon learned that they used their strong arms to paddle up the water and sail up the water about the location of the old salmon lord mountain fort. The next step is to all disembark and pull the ship all the way to the current camp by the cable. Such heroic behavior certainly paid the price. When they unloaded the precious materials, the trackers all lay down like a burden, and then panted for breath...
Isn't the sudden supply a kind of "God's reward" for the Ruths?
But their **** is here. Rurik is the son of God.
People eat the wheat shipped from the rear and have the opportunity to stew salted fish broth. Everyone in the army is eligible for a delicious meal, and the delicious aroma of this stewed fish and the attractive smell of wheat porridge naturally drift to the tower that guards the mountain In the nose of the Vastia defenders, poor defenders, there are only a few moldy dried meat, completely smelly uneaten reindeer meat, other than the rain in the urn.
The situation is rapidly deteriorating, and Vatyara hopes that the reinforcements will clear the siege before everyone runs out of food and water.
Unexpectedly, his hope is about to come true!

How could he believe that the thousand army sent out was half dead after the first battle?The bad news was spreading. The people who passed the news rushed along the forest road. In just one day, most of the villages in the tribal alliance had learned of the news. Although the news is too crazy, a large number of immigrants who have fled back are all talking the same thing in a panic.Do not! The situation is heading towards the irreversible development of the disaster!Because no matter whether the Rus people really want to launch a war against the core area of Tavastia, at least they have this ability and probably have this motive. Exchange of thoughts and whereabouts, if the Tavastias learn that there is a tribe nearby that is much weaker than themselves, will they be friendly? Of course it is conquered by force!Although the words of the messenger and the returning immigrant are different, their core meaning is the same.The leader Watkard heard about the incident like a bolt from the blue, and a thousand reinforcements could not solve the matter. What should I do next?He instinctively thought of continuing to increase troops, and he led the army to continue fighting against the dangerous Russ!Before that, he urgently summoned the leaders of all the villages, hoping that many wise men could brainstorm and come up with a better way to defend against the enemy.There were more than 30 people sitting in the huge shed at once, and anxiety was written on everyone's faces. It was obviously a gathering of spring flowers, and the cold winter seemed to be killed by the Ross people who came across the sea.But the question also comes, who are the Ross people?Then a village leader stood up and asked in public: "Who really knows these Rus people? Are they called by this name? Are they also a kind of Varange?"The messenger who was invited to the meeting was full of affirmation, and swore to all the noble leaders that what he saw and heard was true."They...are the Varangans! They are the Varangans who attacked the Suomi people in the south and arrested them as slaves.""Really?" Another leader asked the messenger: "We didn't provoke them."The messenger continued: "Provoked. We hit their pet.""It's the people of science and culture? What are these? Just because of this, we are going to be driven to extinction?" The village chief who was speaking really didn't understand.Most village leaders feel puzzled. Everyone's understanding of the Rus has just begun. Even though they suffered a disastrous defeat after the first encounter, how does this make sense?For a while, everyone was divided, and some people stood up in this noisy environment.The bald head of the old village stood up with a wooden staff and yelled: "To the east are the Karelians, who keep invading our territory. Now there is another Rus, and they want to wipe us out. If this is the case, we are. Isn't it at the juncture of life and death""Then hit it!" Someone crushed a piece of wood to make it clear.The atmosphere needs someone to drive. Since the bald old man hoped to carry the war to the end on behalf of his village, other leaders have followed up.Originally, the leader Watkad thought that someone would shrink back because of cowardice, but now it seems that he is worried.In fact, if you think about it carefully, where can you retire? To the east is the territory of the old enemy, to the north are the aggressive Rus people who suddenly emerged from the north, and to the south are the long-term and harmonious Suomi people. If it really retreats, but also retreat to the territory of the Suomi people, then friends will not have to do it.But wait a minute! How could Tavastia not win Suomi's support? Assuming that Tavastia is decayed or even completely defeated after the war, this area is the world of the Rus invaders, and eventually the Suomi will become the slaves of the Rus. Besides, it's not that the Ross people haven't attacked Suomi.Watkad thought of a strategy to win reinforcements, but Suomi's reinforcements were unlikely to appear in a short time.Now that everyone has decided to fight back against the Ruths, Tavastia must rely on his own strength to defeat the enemy.Many village leaders have reached a consensus, and Watkad, who is the leader, stood up in compliance with the atmosphere, knowing that there was no need for the meeting to continue."My friends, maybe this is the most dangerous moment in Tavastia. My brother Vatyara will never lie, nor will our compatriots who have fled back. If our brother who stayed in the north is defeated, then It is our turn to destroy. If a war breaks out in our territory, whether we win or not, we will pay a huge loss. War is inevitable, let the war unfold outside the territory! I decided to personally lead the army to crusade! "Watkad is going to "privilege", and everyone agrees.In this way, bigger problems ensue.Tavastiya was just a tribal alliance, and Watkad was just a man of great prestige. This person's success lies in his military exploits. In this spring of life and death, as a war hero, of course he has to go out in person.He was elected as the highest military officer by all the village chiefs, and the scene of this election really meant that the early Roman Senate elected Dick more.If there is the highest, then there is the second. One named Nuoli arrow cluster is considered the second military commander.This Nuoli is naturally one of the strong contenders for the position of the leader, and the Watkad and Watyala brothers do not oppose this person on weekdays. At this time of survival, this person leads a group of old and weak guarding territories mainly in The eastern defense against the possible sneak attack by the Karelians, Watkad was very pleased.Although the Tavastia tribal alliance is very strong, it is only a strong player in the "Novice Village".They have a crowd of 20,000, and they can summon 5,000 men who can take up arms, and they can summon a group of female fighters whenever necessary.But who would expect a woman's combat effectiveness?How many people should be sent north to defend against the enemy, Watkad called on all the villages to be strong and strong.The war is related to how tempting to survive, and the leaders of the villages have unreserved support, and the news is passed on.The father took his sons to the battlefield, and the woman roasted dried meat for the husband and son as dry food.They unreservedly brought their best weapons, so that a large number of fighters are like this.Warriors are covered in animal skins, often peaked by deer's leather. Some strong men have wolf or bear heads on their heads, and many more have their fluffy hair tied with a twine rope.They each carry a short bear hunting spear, usually two or three javelins, a hand axe on their waist, and a wooden shield on their back. Many people still wear short bows and slowly clustered arrows in the leather quiver.A very typical Tavastia warrior was like this. A large number of warriors began to gather in the priest's center. The people who had been inspired by the battle to the death infinite fighters had goodbye to their army. Everyone was full of confidence!The priests dressed like wild beasts danced around the bonfire. After all, they made up the bronze mouthpieces and stirred the wonderful music to enhance the priestly atmosphere.Ten sheep were slaughtered, and the blood of the sheep was sacrificed to the gods.The most noble female driver wore a bear skin, and on her black hair was a crown woven with flying owl feathers. She knelt in front of the flames, spread her hands, and then kneeled down on her knees. Then she was kneeling and praying with a deep voice: "God of the earth! Give your child a great victory! Bless me, don't let evil The enemy killed me, and let me kill all the enemies..."The sheep were completely burned, as the so-called dust returns to the dust, the sheep turned into powder is regarded as a tribute to the earth god.Of course there is a deeper symbolic meaning here, because the Tavastias have very similar beliefs with the Corvins and the northernmost deer breeders Lap people. They believe in the sea of souls, and the "ocean" is under the earth. , Is also the home of all souls.More than 3,000 fighters stood out, from fifteen to fifty years old, most of the Tavastia's new force were among them.The remaining soldiers can still reach the scale of two thousand, which is to arm the ten-year-old boy to become a bow soldier to guard his home.For this sudden war, Tavastia has mobilized more than 6,000 so-called fighters, and this is basically close to their limit.There is light in the eyes of a famous soldier. For this sudden threat of war, Tavastia has bet on his own national fortune.Is this sloppy? It is really sloppy.This decisive battle to go to the battlefield does not seem to be a rational choice at all, even if the decisive battle, why not wait for work? But things have happened. The unruly Tavastias are unwilling to lose control of the newly conquered territories. They are even more unwilling to negotiate with their opponents. With a more miraculous vision, they realize that the Ruths are both deadly threats, and they are also deadly threats. Aware of the truth about the coldness of the lips and the teeth.When the largest expeditionary force in Tavastia began to leave its village and gather in the most heavily guarded mountain fort, the sacrificial center, a group of messengers have entered the lake area in canoes. The next step is to enter the river and reach the Suomi people. In the core area, request the local chief chief to send troops to support.In any case, facing the risk of war, Suomi merchants currently staying in Tavastia territory are ready to move. This group of guys didn't think that the Tavastiyas who had assembled a powerful force would be defeated for the second time. On the contrary, they felt that they could assemble such a large army in two or three days. If this were to go south in a big way, Suomi people of Huze would be forced to Merged with Tavastia. The businessmen subconsciously fear these people, and subconsciously hope that the Ross people can dampen their spirits. As for the relationship between the Rus and the Varyag bandits, the Suomi fur traders didn't care, as if they were just bystanders of the war.The Tavastiya Army completed the final rectification of the strongest expedition on the eighth day after the war alert of the messenger and the fleeing immigrants was issued.The leader Watkad was in a mixed mood. The Ruths were able to fight his brother to lose half of his troops in a battle. This expedition defeated the Russ, even if he would have to win a miserable victory. This should be fate, and it is unrealistic to think about occupying new territories without bloodshed.Since Tavastia and Ross both covet the resources of the Great Northern River Basin, let's fight a decisive battle.Compared to other tribes, Tavastias are indeed better in military appearance.All villages large and small have sent troops, and their leader or the leader's sturdy son has become a military commander after another, leading the village's Jianyong to the battlefield. Therefore, they took the village as a unit and formed all of a sudden. There are more than 30 armed groups of different sizes.Among them, the armed group of the leader of Watkad has the most forces, but it is not much higher than the second. It is precisely because of the half-dozen power of the major large villages that Tavastia has continued its long-term and simple military democracy. Nowadays, it is the supreme military command, and Watkad is still not a monopoly on Dick.They couldn't make the ranks of the ranks uniform, at least they formed more than 30 groups, facing the march of more than two hundred kilometers, everyone would not mess up the ranks.When a rain came suddenly, people hid under the trees and continued to wait for the reindeer carrying supplies.The rain lasted for three days, and when the fourth day was still misty and rainy, they dragged their wet bodies and ate the wet dried meat and continued to move.The rain made the temperature drop so low that it made people tremble for a while.This situation is undoubtedly a realistic meaning to pour cold water on the hot-headed Tavasti runners.Some people say that this is not a good sign, and some people say that this is a trial of the God of the Earth for everyone.The leader Watkad was very eager. He promoted such a message in the ranks: "This rain is the gods helping us! The Ruths who come from afar will become exhausted by the rain, the enemy is weak and we are still strong, and we will quickly defeat. They will kill them all and take away those iron weapons."The key point of the information lies in the last reason, which is that everyone can obtain ironware through the battlefield. This is what they can do to grab it. People ignore the wetness of their bodies and become eager to try.On the Ross side, the facts are as what Watkad said.The Ross people considered the possibility of being exposed to the rain when they set out on the expedition, and there is no good way to deal with this matter.Rurik is determined to besiege the occupied old gray squirrel hill fort. It is not that he has the ability to attack by force, but simply wants to encircle and fight for help.Ross and allies are on guard. Even if a group of people go hunting in the forest to minimize material consumption, most of the soldiers still take root on the edge of the forest to monitor the every move of the mountain fort.When dark clouds began to appear in the sky, the Russ hurriedly started large-scale logging, and then created a large number of simple shacks in the forest. More than a dozen people gathered in a shack to shelter from the rain.It can be said that Rurik's situation is much better. His tent blocked most of the rain. However, he had to be accompanied by dampness and coldness these days when it rained.The rain was simply a gift to the defenders of the mountain fort, and Vatyara, who was trapped, knelt in the rain and thanked God. The defenders of the mountain castle knew that the forest was all enemies, and they believed in the fact that "reinforcements were already on the way".Those filthy and terrible things were washed away by rain, and a large number of pottery urns were placed in the open space in the mountain fort to become an excellent water container.People can skip meals for a long period of time, but a short period of dehydration will cause people to lose their ability to fight. This rain is like nectar, which objectively improves the ability of the lone army of Tavastia in the mountain fort.The rain finally came to an end, and the appearance of the sun caused a thick fog!The trapped beast did not use the fog to escape, but feared the bloodthirsty enemies hidden in the fog.The fog dissipated and the forest was quickly evaporating in the sun.Thanks to this untimely rain~www.novelhall.com~, Rurik, who originally hoped that the Oulu River would be a little calmer, would allow the long boat to enter the river smoothly.Of course the Ross people have the strength to maintain the siege for a period of time. The icing on the cake is that on the second day after the rain completely ended, three long boats turned against the turbulent river water and took a batch of slightly pickled cod meat. , And a boat of slightly damp oats arrived at the Rus camp.Their mode of transportation really surprised Rurikit was a tracker.The people who built Covenstad really thought of ingenious means in order to implement the support mission. Lurik soon learned that they used their strong arms to paddle up the water and sail up the water about the location of the old salmon lord mountain fort. The next step is to all disembark and pull the ship all the way to the current camp by the cable. Such heroic behavior certainly paid the price. When they unloaded the precious materials, the trackers all lay down like a burden, and then panted for breath...Isn't the sudden supply a kind of "God's reward" for the Ruths?But their **** is here. Rurik is the son of God.People eat the wheat shipped from the rear and have the opportunity to stew salted fish broth. Everyone in the army is eligible for a delicious meal, and the delicious aroma of this stewed fish and the attractive smell of wheat porridge naturally drift to the tower that guards the mountain In the nose of the Vastia defenders, poor defenders, there are only a few moldy dried meat, completely smelly uneaten reindeer meat, other than the rain in the urn.The situation is rapidly deteriorating, and Vatyara hopes that the reinforcements will clear the siege before everyone runs out of food and water.Unexpectedly, his hope is about to come true!Still looking for \"Rise of Reulic\" free novels?Baidu direct search: \"\"It's easy to read novels!
