Motivated the idea of sending someone to report, Otto decided to act immediately.

On a piece of snow, all the deer are tied to their necks, they can't wait to eat the snow and dry grass.

After setting up the camping tent, Otto and his party hurriedly got together to talk about the next step.

The atmosphere of the crowd is very eager to go home. Everyone is eager to lie down in a comfortable home earlier, and complains that they have too many things to pull.

Many people are wondering how the deer breeders managed hundreds of reindeer with only 19 people.

Harrodsson also questioned: "Boss, our situation is very bad now, and there are still deer dying on the road every day! Maybe you ask the girl what we can do to make the deer die again."

"She doesn't understand us, and we can't get any answers." Otto was indeed regretful about this.

"In this case, your plan may fail, boss."

"If that's the case, it's fate. Although the deer died, the most precious deer skins were kept, and we didn't lose too much. Anyway, after the deer return, it is best to breed and breed. If not, the last thing is A result of skinning and eating meat. But now our problem is that there are too many goods. Besides, we have been outside for too long. We must send a group of people back to report the letter earlier."

Otto said, he looked at the people gathered from the left and right, and he didn't just mumble to Haroldoson.

He asked in a loud voice, "I need some people to go back in advance, to go back as soon as possible, and to inform everyone that we are back. Who wants to fight? Come in front of me!"

There was a lively discussion, and ten people stood up.

They are willing to go back to report, but they have two conditions.

First, guarantee their belongings so that you can pack up lightly. Second, actions need to be paid.

Otto didn't think much about it, because he is indeed rich and powerful to some extent now.

"Okay! Ten of you, let's be blown by the north wind. You can slide fast on the frozen sea, and maybe you can slide home in one day. I pay a lot of your rewards, and everyone's reward is a piece of deerskin.

Otto's starving deer was nearly seventy, because he did get so many fresh deer skins. His personal sled has long been unable to carry so many goods, so many of his cronies are helping him to undertake the escort.

The standard price of each deer skin is a fine silver coin. It can be cut and sewn into a close-fitting leather jacket and trousers. The leftover materials can also be used to make fur and gloves. The skin of the hind legs of the deer can be cut to make a good one. boots.

A piece of deerskin is such an excellent value. With the cut clothes worn on the body, the Ross people can resist the Arctic wind very well.

The people who report the letter are happy. They all know that the leader never eats salt. A short report can get a heavy reward. Why not do it?

This night, after a short sleep, ten people reported the reality and finished eating fresh braised meat, then stuffed a piece of dark dried meat into their diagonal leather bag, and brought their own skis and ski poles (two sticks). A sturdy straight stick), stepped on the ice again, and under the shining of the stars, moonlight, and even the northern lights, it moved forward at high speed on the frozen sea.

Here, Haro Zuosen volunteered to be the leader of the messenger.

It's definitely not Haro Zuosen eager to get a reward for a deerskin. What is a mere deerskin?

This wise man intends to further show himself in front of the leader, and it is also to prove his lifelong brotherhood with Otto.

His motive for doing this is also for his son Kanuf.

The young Kanuf has a lot of knowledge after hunting on his back for a long time. This child also shows his face frequently in front of the leader.

Because of Kanuf, this child is already Rurik's best friend, or a subordinate.

The north wind whizzed across the smooth ice, and ten sled riders moved at high speed.

Harozov, headed by , felt that he really only needed a day to get back to Roseburg, because he felt that when the weather became warmer, the fastest speed of a long boat would be the same as his own skating.

They were indeed very fast, so soon after the short day was over, Harozov suddenly noticed the strange sight of the distant ice.

The keen hunter became nervous, and Harozov temporarily stopped all actions.

"What's going on? Haroldoson? Could it be that the stars fell on the ice?"

Harrodsson speculated: "No! It was definitely a campfire, Harangan. Someone! No! Many people, they camped on the ice."

"Is it an enemy and a friend?"

"It should not be the enemy. They may...maybe ours!"

"Yes! It must be so, we are looking for them, and they are looking for us."

Other people made similar speculations, and Haro Zuosen believed this to be true, but he himself was very worried about the potential danger. After all, for a good hunter, staying vigilant is also the basis for preventing himself from falling into prey from a hunter.

"Brothers, do you have the guts to come with me?"

"Yes!" Everyone said in unison.

"We will act now and take our own axe. Although we all believe that it is our family, we can't take it lightly. As you know, when the bay freezes, the Finns in the east may come sneak attack."

"Finns?! Those idiots are a little better than the deer breeders. They are also a bunch of idiots who use stones as weapons!" An old guy with a beard laughed presumptuously.

Following this laughter, Haro Zossen also laughed: "It is said that since ancient times, they can only surrender in front of us, and obediently send gifts to ask for our forgiveness. When will those weak people dare to cross the sea and attack us. Let's go. , Brothers, let me see who the campfires are over there. Well, just in case, put on our chain mail."

It doesn't hurt to be cautious. This is why the Ross tribe's casualties are always smaller than those after fighting with the Danes and Gotlanders.

Harrodsson and others were not too troublesome. From the small sled behind them, they not only took out the chain mail and put it on the leather jacket, but also tied the round shield to the left arm.

Some people even took off their warm fox fur hats and put on their own bronze helmets!

After some action, they are almost going to plunder those ice campers.

Ten brave Viking warriors started to take action. The strong defense brought by these armors, they are indeed full of strong confidence in any fight.

On the ice sheet, ten heavily armed people swaggered toward the bonfire.

Such arrogant behavior is naturally noticed by people who have not yet rested.

For an instant, the team going north to find their family became nervous, and some people frantically beat on the thickened copper-skinned round shield.

The two groups of people from each other are the warriors of the Ross tribe, and they behave in exactly the same way. For example, their chain mail and shield and battle axe are always carried on their bodies. UU Reading www.uukanshu They like com can always deal with sudden battles.

Lurik was awakened suddenly, he got out of the tent and saw the chaos of the entire camp.

He even saw the mother's solemn face under the moonlight and the axe in her hand.

"Child, you have to hide! Maybe the Finns are attacking us, we must fight them back!"

"Finns? Aren't they weak?!"

"I don't know about this!" Niya stopped talking nonsense, she pushed hard, and pushed the young Rurik back into the tent.

Lurik didn't understand the situation at all. It seemed that the camp was under siege by the enemy. Thinking of this, he also felt a little worried about his situation.

"Liu Li, ah Liu Li, you are named Liurik for a big business. You can't leave the fjord and be hacked to death by the Finns within two days..."

Rurik couldn't help but think about it, and he heard the voice of his cousin Arik outside through the thin animal skins of the tent.

"Mother, you don't have to go to war. There are only a few people here. I really can't think of whether the Finns are brave or stupid."

"Do you see that it is a Finn? How is your wife? As a man, you should protect your woman first."

"Peravina is safe. Mother, where's Rurik?"

"He is in the tent."

Hearing his name calling, Rurik got a small head and looked at his brother Arik with a blank face: "It's not dangerous, right? In addition to the Danes, there are those fools who dare to attack us.

"There are also some stupid Finns, my brother." Arik smiled, "You are too young to be involved in the battle. The rest is time for real men to see us wipe out all the attackers. "
