Chapter 1352

A sled carried Olafin and his fellows towards the small community, and he acted as the driver himself. The sled was dragged by four reindeer and rushed on the ice. In a short time, they rushed to a quiet small community. .

The roofs are covered with snow, and the wide and winding alleys have only a few linear roads. It is obvious that people in the community always stay at home to keep out the cold after entering winter. Any few people who worked outside took only fixed trails, so the reindeer broke into knee-high snow pits and then fell into the snow with their sleds.

"That's it! Brothers, come down and inform everyone that we will withdraw immediately."

The guys had to get off the sled after rolling and scrambling, and then rushed to their family's house through the snow, yelling as they walked.

Olafin's appearance in such a weird form immediately caused an uproar in the community, and those who were too lazy to stay out of the house in the winter cold were attracted by screams and shouts.

There is no leader in the small community, just more than 30 Danish families living together.

They are all descendants of Denmark, they all speak Norse, and their hair color is very different from that of the local Krivich.

These people wearing thick plush fur hats gradually gathered in the open space of the community center. Although the man's return made the women and children very happy, but the man returned with an incredible war alarm, which really made everyone unbelievable.

All the reindeer got out of the snow, and driven by Orafin, they drove the sled into the clearing where the crowd had begun to gather.

"Olafin! What are you doing?! You got four deer?" It was his wife who yelled. The woman pulled the child behind her, and only then did she learn the news of the soldiers approaching the city from others

interest.

Olafin did not answer his wife immediately, he was waiting for the folks from the same country to gather.

There are more than 30 households in the small community, and every household has given birth to many children. They can only hedge against high premature deaths with high birth rates. This community actually has a population of more than 200 people, which is nothing more than a small village.

Because they are of the same family as Gore, the ruler of the big city of Pskov, even if these guys move out, Gore is not willing to make things difficult.

The most fundamental reason why Gore encountered opposition from his own family was that he wanted to bring his family to fully grasp the power and achieve hereditary inheritance. In this way, the Nordic-style democracy in the community is over. There will be no more general assembly in the future, and those ordinary descendants of Danish immigrants will no longer be able to speak in Pskov. I intend to listen to what my brothers mean.

But the reality turned out to be rather subtle.

Gore intensified his efforts to deal with various local Krivichs, and the excess supplies he collected were not for his own enjoyment, but for his family who supported him. The future, who knows? Those who support the traditional Nordic system will not be rewarded with these grains and cloth, and those who support Gore to become the king will be rich and spicy.

A large number of descendants of Danish immigrants with no pursuit. Their way of making a living is to catch fish in the big lake, and then raise some cattle and sheep to grow some food. Due to poor technical means, the output of each family is not high. With the tribute directly in the hands of the Krivich, all the economic embarrassment is gone.

They therefore supported Gower, and the "Pskov centralization" since Gower was supported by the vast majority of Danish immigrants.

Can

Olafin and his friends always organized caravans and took great risks to do business in Riga.

People who can walk on this extremely tortuous trade route finally get together, and they can live only by reselling salt and iron. As for the harvest of farming and breeding, it is natural that the more the better, but even if the harvest is extinct, everyone will not Very distressed.

Now people with their families gather in the open space of the community. Seeing that the personnel are almost expired, Olafin pulls out a flag from his sackcloth pocketa flag with blue stripes on a white background crossed diagonally.

The Rus flag is no longer a rarity, only because the Bohm expedition that entered the Rus capital by mistake had seen it before.

And Bohm and his four buddies are also residents of the small community.

"Hey! Olafin, why do you have a Ross flag?!" Boom yelled, his hair trembling in shock.

"It's Brother Bom! Coincidentally, I also met King Ross in Riga."

"Ah?! Isn't it Rurik, the king of Ross? You can still meet him? Why don't I believe it? Now you still say that he wants to lead troops to attack us."

"You can believe it." Olafin yelled back: "King Ross is in his twenties. He has a golden ponytail and a golden crown. His army has just conquered Smolensk. Now, the sword of King Ross It's pointed at us!"

Following Bohm's question, Olafin turned to face all the people: "Friends! King Ross said that his sword is only aimed at Goyle. King Ross has no idea about our community. King Ross wants us all Hide it so that it doesn't come to us when the fighting breaks out."

The crowd was in a turmoil, and Bohm simply walked up

Before that, he directly boarded the sleigh and confronted Olafin face to face: "It hurts us? Why. I know King Ross, and he is a very kind person... Could it be that you met a false king in Riga?"

"Don't question it, I don't have time to argue with you. In short, an army of more than 2,000 people will be killed tomorrow. Those soldiers have killed many enemies, and they are all ruthless. Only King Ross can control them. You don't want to be affected. Hurry up and leave! Anyway, my guys and I are going to take our family and run away, so you and your friends, you can figure it out yourself."

"You..." Bohm was speechless for a moment.

After all, there are more than 30 households in the small community, and Olafin and his buddies account for one-third of them.

Instead of persuading everyone to run with me, it is better to lead the guys to retreat directly. As for how the remaining two-thirds make decisions, let's do whatever we want!

Olafin felt that he had done his best. He completely ignored Bohm and made the final persuasion: "Friends! I will take my family to Rope Village directly, because the Ross army is temporarily stationed there! We have enough time to go now, They will arrive at their camp in the evening. King Ross has made me a nobleman, and you will be nobles if you follow me. We didn't obey Gore in the first place, since King Ross gave us benefits, why not follow him.

An army of more than 2,000 people? Even making heavy use of this high-spec reindeer sled that's close at hand?

Because the people in the small community have heard a lot of fantasy stories about Rose in the previous fantasy adventures of Bohm and his party, and have reached a consensus on the strength of Rose.

They just don't understand, obviously Lian Gao

Boss Er has goodwill towards Ross, but King Ross suddenly grasped the butcher knife?

what to do? What should we do now?

At least one-third of the families knew exactly what to do, which was to retreat with Olafin with all the treasures that could be taken away immediately.

Many hesitant families saw that many people had already packed their bags, so they had no choice but to follow Olafin with doubts. They can only choose this way, firstly, it is impossible for everyone to disperse into the forest during the cold period, and secondly, they are worried that they will be ridiculed by the people of the big community when they go to Gore again, and they will lose face.

hide? Pooh!

Olafin's full travel experience made him understand that it is difficult to maintain the lives of many people in the wild world, especially now that the weather is cold. King Ross's so-called "hide you", he didn't stipulate where to hide.

Why don't you just evacuate your family to Rope Village and get together with the local leader Mancheko. People in the whole small community like to run trades, and all the men have visited Rope Village to do business with the locals, at least they are familiar with each other. It is a village at any rate. In order to avoid military accidents and casualties, they moved there temporarily. The adults can temporarily build a wooden house for a few days or rent a barn. Do the rent.

The food and dried fish at home were poured into the linen pockets. People packed all the leather and cloth, and took away the commonly used iron tools, such as pottery urns and pots, and temporarily threw away those that could not be taken away.

Or led or hugged, all the children are "armed" like furry bears, one by one on the human sled

People in small communities hardly raise livestock. After all, they have no urgent need for this. So after taking out a limited number of sheep from the pens, a family's belongings are almost emptied, leaving only empty houses and some Pots and pans that lack practicality.

One advantage of traveling merchant families is that they can evacuate very quickly. Because this is how Olafin taught his children: "You must set up camp and leave quickly, and throw away some things when necessary, so as to save your life."

Olafin's eldest son was already able to be a warrior, and the boy was asked to inherit his father's career as a businessman. The boy knew nothing about fighting, and he was a "little scud" when it came to running away.

Now, a group of young children were gathered on the big sledge lent by Rurik for a short period of time. Olafin and his friends did it deliberately, and those small human-powered sledges were specially used to transport family supplies. Attached to the big sled.

All grown-ups and half-children armed themselves with all the agricultural tools and weapons, and those who had the conditions put their round shields on their backs and put on their iron helmets, so as to ensure the absolute safety of the evacuated team.

Olafin's group moved extremely nimbly, which made the Bohm's scalp tingle.

Bohm is a wandering businessman. In fact, he is not really opposed to the centralized Gower, but because he has his own pursuit. He believes in Frey, the **** of wealth, and likes to make a reasonable fortune in his own way. Although he looked down on the local Krivichslavs, he didn't think he could rob them as a robber.

In other words, looting is risky, and it may be caused by the other party's resolute resistance.

He was counter-killed.

Bom was not a warrior. When he ran across the Ross army while drifting in the Unnamed River, all he could think of was to run away, and he never felt shameful to run away. He is such a heartless and courageous person.

For a while Bom was hesitant, but his wife smashed the hesitant man with a tub.

"You are stupid! Whether King Ross is real or not! A large army is in Rope Village, and they will arrive tomorrow! Follow Olafin to avoid it now! In case it is really the King Ross you have met, you can tell him There are benefits to being loyal to our family."

The woman brought her multiple children and no longer cared about Bom's attitude. She was already thinking about it with the children: "If you want to die, I will not stop you, but don't bring your children to be buried with you."

She muttered for a long time, and finally Boom stomped his feet fiercely, roaring like a lion: "Then run away with Olafin."

People who are undecided see that most of their friends are running away, so they blindly follow along.

The entire small Danish community became empty in a short time.

The big sled was full of children, almost the entire small community of boys, girls and children. In order to ensure that the children would not accidentally fall, the parents suddenly made a batch of nooses to tie up a large group of children.

The older children used harpoons and short spears as marching battles, but the spears were used upside down, just to chisel on the ice without slipping.

After all, the entire small community is full of merchant families, and what they are best at is traveling, even if it is moving in the ice and snow.

The wide snowshoes they made of tree and vine boards were of great use, and they moved forward collectively on the ice with wooden sticks.

A wooden pole hoisted the Ross flag aloft

Hang, the flag is erected on the sleigh.

After all, it is a long journey from the small community to the rope village. It will take a while for the reindeer sleigh to run wildly, but it will take until nightfall to walk.

No one was worried about walking at night. Firstly, they were heading towards the upper reaches of the Velikaya River, and secondly, it was just like Olafin's nickname "Night Walker".

With such a leader, who would worry about getting lost?

Olafin was not surprised that Boom followed her.

Both of them, like the others, wore special snowshoes and walked on the ice with wooden sticks at high frequency.

The difference was that Olafin had a smile on his face, while Bohm had a sullen face.

"Why are you nervous? There is only one King Ross, so you shouldn't have doubts." Olafin smiled, "Anyway, we are getting farther and farther away from the community, and there is no turning back for you and me."

"Tch, you dragged our brother into the water."

"Are you complaining? You shouldn't be thanking me." Olafin smiled bitterly: "King Ross said that he only targets Goyle, and anyone who fights for Goyle will be killed. He also said that Goyle is actually Nothing wrong, it's just that his presence hinders King Ross."

Boom was most surprised by this: "Why bother? King Ross is very powerful, and Gore is nothing compared to him. Gore can rule these Crevicians because we northerners can fight. In my opinion, the Ross army is Can easily scare Goyle into submission. King Ross doesn't have to come up and kill."

"Hey, do you believe it's King Ross? By the way, King Ross brought four infantry banners and a cavalry this time. The leader of the cavalry is Brody. He also brought his own blackhead

Fa's wife, and about fifty strangers on horseback, came from the steppe to live in Pecheneg..."

These words made Bohm's tightly wrapped feet sweat profusely, because many details of what he saw and heard in New Roseburg had never been told to everyone, and even when Boss Gore asked about his adventures, he thought about Some of these are meaningless, so I won't say them. For example, Bohm until there was a young cavalry general named Brody.

"It seems that he is really Rurik, the King of Ross..." Boom breathed out, "I just don't know if King Ross still recognizes me."

"Let's wait and see. By the way, have all your friends followed? There should be no one left in the community."

"No." Pom pursed his lips and shook his head: "The Swald family didn't leave, and the Carlot family didn't leave either."

"They? Stupid! Of course, the Ross Army may not harass our small community, for fear of misunderstanding. Are they really bold?"

"I don't know." Boom shrugged. "Maybe they reported to Goyle."

Bohm said it lightly, secretly tinged with a hint of anger.

After all, the appearance of the Ross army did break the peace of Pskov. Bom didn't know what the future would hold, and he also didn't know the true determination of his old friends Swad and Carlotta. Anyway, these two people were not in the team. The whistleblower told Bohm that he didn't know, and everything he said was just speculation.

But Olafin didn't know that this was speculation, and the smile disappeared for a moment, and he even faced Pom with harshness: "They are so stupid! Reporting to Goyle, isn't it really going to be a big fight?"

"Oh, you

Didn't it mean that King Ross only targeted Gore? "

"That's right! King Ross originally planned to launch a powerful raid. At least the battle to kill Goyle is over. The people of Ross are fast enough, and our big community may not have any losses. Now it's good, isn't it given to Goyle? Do you organize people to resist?"

"You..." Boom looked at Olafin with an attitude of looking at a fool: "Do you really think that Goyle should sit and wait to die? Since he is a warrior, he must face all this in a warrior's way. Anyway, I am not a warrior, I Decided to flee."

"Swad and Carlotta are just stupid. UU reading www.uukanshu.com really **** me off! When they were friends who lived together, they betrayed us. Now, King Ross can only fight against Pskov Damn it! I must report this matter to the king."

When Olafin said this, his position was completely on Rose's side.

He asked the whole team to speed up, and he himself started to speed up.

Olafin decided to tell King Ross that there were traitors in the small community, and there were even more traitors among the people who had been treated kindly by the king, which caused Pskov to take precautions.

In this way, the Ross army's attack tomorrow will advance in a magnificent formation, and Olafin knows very well what that means.

Because, the Russian army paraded twice on the frozen Daugava River in Riga. The Russian army showed off their might in a high-profile manner. As a bystander, Olafin really believed in their force.

And just before evening, some "uninvited guests" approached Olafin and his group.
