Chapter 56

However, when the day broke, the situation changed.

Otto and his party hid in a small forest. More than a dozen people chatted with each other about the past, and most of them were thinking about the future hunting.

They are already in a relatively high position, actually on the **** of a hill.

The pine forest gave them a certain amount of cover, but it did not completely cover their vision.

Everyone can see far away with their eyes wide open, and their sharp eyes are observing even the slightest changes in the environment.

Finally, a large group of squirming and unidentified objects appeared on the distant snowy field.

Almost for an instant, the cheerful faces of the people who were still talking and laughing suddenly became stiff.

People are lying on the snow one by one, facing the changes in the distance, at this moment Otto's heart is only uncontrollable excitement.

"Ah! Odin loves us. Brothers, my prayer has worked, we got the baby!"

Otto's loyal friend Haro Zuosen couldn't help asking: "Chief, your prayer? When did you pray?"

"It was last night, I made a wish to Aurora. It seems that the Valkyrie has helped me dress the story, and Odin has responded. You knock it, that's the herd of deer."

Although it is only a vague shadow, everyone can guess that it is definitely not a herd of deer.

"Hey, maybe there will be a hundred deer. Chief, more than a dozen of us act immediately, what do you think? We can easily catch a few." Haro Zuosen suggested.

"No! Don't worry too much, because we don't just come for a few deer. We want everything."

"Huh? Are you still thinking about the possible deer breeders?"

"Yes, don't you want a fight?"

Viking's heart is sometimes so simple.

Everyone is eager to fight, especially the so-called "under the witness of the Valkyrie", through the battle to show their heroism, and to prove their strength with hearty fighting.

Of course, the Viking tribe doesn't really like to fight at night.

Those who raise deer are not of their own clan.

Judging from everyone's simple ancient thoughts, except for the kinsmen and allies, the rest are potential enemies. For your own safety, you cannot easily show their favor. The easiest and most direct way is to rob it once before talking.

Otto ordered everyone to lie down, and everyone quietly observed the movement in the distance.

As expected, the speculation became a reality, and the deer breeders appeared.

I saw a few tiny human figures driving away the deer, forcing them to leave the woods.

"Do you really put your home in the woods in front of me? What a stupid decision. Maybe you can withstand the wolves, but we are more ferocious than the white bear." Otto said to himself, he His mind is already planning a rigorous plan.

The longest winter is coming soon, which is the so-called polar night time, during which there is no existence in the daytime.

According to previous management, he should have returned to Roseburg with his prey at this time, as did the others.

Thousands of people will shrink in the fjord, even those who dig holes to catch the seals have also returned. When the sea ice melts, everything begins to recover.

The Ross people are like this. Otto believes that the living conditions of the deer breeders will only get worse.

Only Ross's warriors dared to advance in the ice and snow, and the others could only survive the winter in a warm den.

The deer breeders now obviously do grazing, and this vast area is their pasture. Otto continued thinking along this line of thought, and he could affirm that the deer keeper has settled down and will not leave for a short time.

He observed for a long time, and when the short daylight was about to pass, he instructed his subordinates what to do.

"Karozov, my friend."

"Chief, what do you want?"

"You are now rushing back to our advancing camp with your two brothers. You meet the rest of us at the camp. When they arrive one after another and the number reaches a hundred, you will bring everyone to me. Your speed will be certain. Hurry up! Understand?"

"Ah! Is it going to fight?!" The excited Kharosov had to ask another question.

Otto slapped him on the shoulder at the right time: "My brother, we will launch an attack. The victory belongs to us. But I am not a fool. I hope that all those who participate in the hunt can be in this distant place before Hanukkah. Enjoy a battle in the unknown. You know, this is what Odin hopes for."

Harozov nodded deeply: "I understand! Including my son, I must involve him."

"Okay, but I hope the children will avoid it for the time being, because we don't know what those deer breeders are. I only hope that everyone who participates will win without any injuries."

The deer-raising man has appeared, and all that is left is to wait for the team to gather, and finally complete the victory with absolute strength.

The following time, Otto himself became an elderly observer.

To be honest, he has experienced many battles with Danes or Gotland people in his life, as well as those few Novgorods who are unwilling to surrender.

The Danes and their own combat power are evenly matched. If appropriate tactics are used, the Ross tribe always wins.

Of course, this kind of victory is not so upright, Otto is better at using tricks, he is a very pragmatic person. He didn't like two groups of people gathered in one place, and then the two armies confronted each other with a roar, and finally turned into a savage fight between the two groups.

That kind of fight was unstructured, and both sides suffered heavy losses in the end.

is so stupid! The Ross tribe cannot bear such casualties.

Otto likes to hide his own people. When the enemy relaxes his vigilance, he makes a big attack. An unexpected attack can always achieve a major victory.

The enemy called him shameless, and the tribal leaders of his allies were also questioning the shame of the ancestors of the Ross tribe and the shame of the Mind Subtribe Alliance.

Otto can't care about so many, as long as it is a victory, why care about so many strange etiquette?

But against other ethnic groups, why not use sneak attack tactics?

It was another whole day of observation. Otto was pleasantly surprised to find that the deer breeders were active on the snowy field far away in front of his hiding place, and the deer herd was temporarily grazing on the grass in this area.

He also made a very accurate judgment. Not only is the home of the deer breeders in the distant woods, their population is definitely not large.

To verify his guess, in fact, as long as it sneaks past in the dark, you can investigate carefully.

Otto is fifty years old after all, if he is a stunned young man, he will really touch it.

He strictly ordered his subordinates to observe carefully for the time being, and dare to go for investigation. If the deer raiser ran away if the deer-raiser ran away~www.mtlnovel.com~ the blame would be borne by this person.

As for the punishment, the result is simple and rude.

The so-called "You let go of a large group of prey that should belong to the tribe, and now you have to apologize with death."

No one dared to disobey the leader's orders. Otto did have real power in the clan, and everyone was very supportive of the leader.

A good hunter is always calm, just like a dragon-head warship floating on the surface of the sea, the oarsman throws the iron fish hook with hemp rope into the water, and the rest is quietly waiting for the fish to bite the hook and fishing. The person must have good patience.

Otto also has good patience, and he has great courage.

The ten-day hunting period as agreed upon will inevitably exceed. Now, who else thinks that he should go back home as soon as the time is up?

Those guys who are scattered hunting in the rear, each of them has a different harvest. More than a hundred people have caught more than ten wild reindeer, which is really not good.

The deer skin was peeled off, and they gathered the crowd and roasted the venison, because the reserve of dried meat was emergency food and could not be enjoyed right away.

The Ross tribe cherishes food very much. Except for the deer's intestines, they can't handle it in the wild. They basically ate the other intestines of the deer. Even if the fish smells bad, they must swallow it because they don't eat much in cold places. Things will freeze to death by themselves.

In addition to deer skins, the most harvested are of course ferret skins, forest cat skins, squirrel skins, and even some fox skins, all of which are priceless.

Some people feel that they have gained enough, so they return to the camp one after another. Because the leader has not yet returned, everyone dare not leave rashly. Also because the leader took the twenty bravest men who claimed to be looking for the huge herd of deer, they seemed to be able to succeed.

The results are of course positive.
