Victory came too easy, Ragnar still wanted to cut and kill himself, but the battle ended before the main force arrived.

Winning a group of helpless guys is really not a matter of bravery. The confiscated materials are distributed by the army, and there is not much left in everyone's hands.

The blood-stained Karelia camp was too unlucky, and the dead bodies were pulled onto the ice and covered with snow to make mounds. After the ice melted, the bodies would sink into the huge Lake Onega.

Rurik chose an open space to camp, but when the soldiers rammed the stakes to fix the tent, they directly hit the stone.

That is the literal stone!

Rurik stayed by the bonfire and roasted. The soldiers killed some captured deer on the spot. The deer skin was cut off, and everyone was given a piece of **** venison and busy roasting.

Arik led his guys into the forest to search for small animals, and Ragnar led his brothers to another reverse exploration.

The army of the Principality of Rus arrived here, and the only other settlement was destroyed, which means that the west bank of Lake Onega is already Rus' territory.

The battle ended in the morning, and many people went to explore the forest treasures in the afternoon before they had time to build camping tents. As for those who set up tents, they reported their major discoveries to the king.

"Prince, we found a large piece of stone." The speaker's eyes were gleaming, and what he said was definitely not Miaoyan.

Rurik had long noticed that there were stones in the annihilated Karelia remnant camp, and he was wondering how the place was short of stones, and how they got the stones.

The reports of his subordinates surprised him.

"Stones? There are still stones in this place?" he asked.

"It's a rock. You can see it just by removing the snow."

"There is such a good thing?" How can Rurik sit still? He stood up suddenly.

Just as Svetlana was about to stretch out her arms, she suddenly heard her man's request: "Lanna, come with me. There are others, follow me."

A group of people followed Rurik, and soon they picked up the wooden tools and began to pick up snow in the so-called stone discovery area.

Rurik saw that the snow nest that was first opened by his subordinates, the bottom layer was a very hard gray.

"It's a rock!"

The snow here has not reached the knees, because the wind sweeping across the ice transports all the snow attached to the ice to the lake, so in some places the snow can reach the waist.

"What should I do?" someone asked.

"I want to get stones to build our city. Brothers move and try to clear the snow. I want to see how many stones there are."

Some temporary wooden shovels were made assaults, and even the reindeer participated in the snow removal work, relying on the powerful force of the deer to pull the planks, and quickly peel off the snow like a snow shovel.

The rock formations under the snow gradually exposed their true colors, and the sun began to shine on the stones.

It seems to be a whole piece of rock, with a small amount of lichen attached to it, and even some special patterns.

As the peeling continued, those lines became clearer.

The people who removed the snow unexpectedly saw some patterns made up of rough lines.

"What's that? It looks like a swan." Svetlana asked in surprise, covering her mouth.

"Did the Karelians do it? They worship birds?" someone asked again.

Painting on the rocks may be done by Karelians, or by other mysterious tribes.

Rurik had an idea and let out a long sigh: "In my opinion, this is what God has given us."

"How do you tell?" Lanna asked again.

Now, Rurik's blue eyes looked at the frozen Lake Ladoga: All of this is an oracle. When spring comes, the great lake thaws, and the swans and geese that go south will return. Therefore, we are the masters of this land. The picture on the rock is a testament to the gift of God."

Everyone heard that there was no objection, and regarded the explanation of the kingdom as truth.

Rurik improvised and ordered: "We are going to mine the stones here, and we will act now. We will pull the ship over in the spring. We will chisel down this swan stone and carry it to Shilla Fort. Well, we To build a quarry settlement here, call her Swan Stone Town."

How to dig a stone! A sledgehammer or a forest axe can be rammed, or a chisel can slowly strike to make a square stone brick.

The snow was further cleaned up, and the people at work were out of breath.

In the evening, the faces of the returning people were full of joy of harvest. When they discovered the small animal resources that are quite accompany here, they used a wooden-armed crossbow to make a precise sniper, and the ferrets and squirrels hiding from the treetops fell to the ground one after another.

Even a hunting madman returned with ten-tailed squirrels tied with ropes, and immediately began skinning operations at the camp.

At night, the lake is full of bonfires.

The stone excavation site has become a certain scale, as many as fifty people are desperately smashing the stones.

It does not matter even if it creates a large amount of granite gravel, they will be mixed with lime cement to make concrete. Or it may be crushed into smaller and larger particles to partially replace the quartz sand necessary for cement.

Work can be paid by the prince. No, a group of Lu Di people also join the work after eating.

The camp was full of clanging stones, and Arik, who had been hunted abundantly, returned, and it was very uncomfortable to hear this all in his ears.

He gnawed squirrel meat and teased his brother: "Other brothers are busy hunting, but you love the rocks here."

"Do you think I'm weird?" Rurik asked with a smile.

"It's weird. We obviously should seize the opportunity to hunt."

"It's better to dig more rocks! It is completely unexpected to find rocks in this place. In the future, cities will be built here, and the new city is expected to replace the island quarry on Gogran Island. After all, this place is an inner lake, and we don't have to consider the tide at all. The question is, the excavation work in the warm period does not have to worry about bad weather. Moreover, after the ship enters Lake Ladoga, the stones can be selectively transported to Shilla Fort or Novgorod..."

"Are you calculating this?" Rurik obviously didn't finish his words, and Arik, who had a headache, interjected: "I am a pure warrior. I have a headache considering these. Maybe my Aslaqi can be good with you. Chat."

"Yes. Of course she can. She is a professional businessman and the most calculating. Then, her second child is about to be born, right?"

"Soon. It's about the same as the high priest." Arik asked casually, "Have you thought about the name of the child?"

"It's called Oleg."

"If the girl?" Arik asked again.

"That's simpler, it's called Onega, which is the name of this great lake."

In Old Finnish, the suffix "ga" means "huge water surface". Naming the girl after the lake is also a beautiful name.

"So what is the name of Gustav's brother or sister?" Now it was Rurik's turn to ask.

Arik shrugged: "It depends on her own wishes."

The two brothers talked about wives and children, but two women kept listening.

Lanna is determined to give birth to the crown prince, Carlotta wants to give birth to a son in his principality.

No, there are still people working at the digging site after nightfall, and there is another battle going on in Rurik's house-style sleigh.

Rurik and his two women were entangled with each other, and no one was evasive until now. The three of them all took the initiative, that is, Rurik felt a little backache the next morning, while Lanna and Carlota, Obviously, the baby has a happy face.

The cold here is not suitable for long stay, if there is a sudden cold wave and heavy snowfall, it is not good.

After breakfast, Rurik held a military meeting. In addition to admiring the cavalry's swift assault, they also chatted with each other about the abundant local products.

The prince again gave an important speech on the development of local stone resources, emphasizing the importance of lakeside stone for urban construction, and all the nobles agreed.

Such servants of Ludi have therefore found a new job.

Lake Onega is located on the edge of the low mountain range that extends from the Kola Peninsula. It is a huge icy lake as a whole, and there are rocks on the top of the lake.

The Rudys do not have to hunt animals and skin them and sell them to the Rus. They can dig the stones and transport them to their villages, waiting for the Russ to pick them up.

Stone digging cannot be a high-value-added job. You can earn living supplies by doing this job, which is much better than the original poor life.

The female leader Rudi and the elected Markut were given new instructions-to dig stones for generations.

The Ross people generally disdain to do this kind of work. A group of servants can't do it perfectly, and everyone hears no objection.

Ruriek will stay on the lake for two full days. He will give the army more time for hunting and will also set foot on this large lake to observe the landforms in person.

At the same time, the stone digging project continued. The Lu Di men received more axes, hammers, and iron spears to strip the boulders with assault and modified chisels, and then began to implement the technique of thermal expansion and contraction to produce a large amount of gravel.

Large and small stones began to be produced, and they were thrown on the sled indiscriminately. That is, a sled must not carry too much weight, and the stones of any shape must be processed twice when they are transported to Shilla Fort.

As many as three "swan stone carvings" that have not been discovered have to be carefully chiseled down. They have the sacred meaning of Rurik Fuyu, but they have to be placed in the Rose Temple.

It is of course not the Karelians who chiseled the "swans", but the older ethnic groups. Those lake settlers who disappeared for thousands of years left these heritages and became the treasures of the Ross people.

Rurik led the team to investigate in two days. He was surprised that there were a lot of rocks under the snow in this area, as if a huge mountain range was sinking.

There are as many as ten sledges filled with stones, and they are placed in a random pile, giving Lurik feel like a pile of construction rubbish.

They are not rubbish. After smashing the mixed cement concrete, the hardened ground project of Fengshou Plaza can be quickly implemented.

Rurik is a smart man, and someone in the team can realize the value of stone.

More than stone, metal ores can be found with stones. It would be even better if iron ore and copper ore were discovered.

The lake was full of cold winds like knives, and the hunters had no fear. The one hundred Ludi fighters did not kill the enemy and present their names, but turned into masonry and provided Ross with stones to prove their loyalty.

The Rudy people are very satisfied with their new job, that is, the captured Karelian women can only be taken away like cattle.

They are all dwarfs, and they are not like that, just because the overall living environment is bad, suppressing a person's growth. In this way, every woman is very light, although the Pecheneg is as low and short, the latter is short and immediately, with arms as hard as rocks, and it is easy to control such a woman.

As for the blonde, blue-eyed and tall Rose and other Vikings, standing in front of them is a powerful shock.

After a very detailed inventory, as many as six hundred Karelian women were captured. The first conqueror to arrive was Kagan. He killed the old man and all men regardless of age with the customs of the grassland. Therefore, these six hundred people were only young women and young girls.

They completely lost their resistance, and Rurik, as the prince, announced the treatment of them in public.

The Principality still follows the old rules. Women who are fertile will immediately marry new men. Women with young girls will marry with their daughters.

From their standpoint, it seems that there is only cooperation as an option, and they feel that the entire Karelia has been completely destroyed. Since they are unwilling to commit suicide and be buried in the tribe, they can only be slaves to the conquerors.

They didn't have any extravagant hopes for the future, and Rurik also had no intention of harming these guys. From the standpoint of the prince, Liu Rick hoped that these new women would desperately give birth to children, so that a new batch of screaming soldiers could be created in 15 years at the earliest.

The performance of their obedience is to gather together quietly and stay in tents that can keep out the cold like goods.

Those hunters from Suomi and Xiongji Town insisted on staying for hunting, accompanied by the Ludi people who continued to dig stones, and at the same time began to build the so-called "Swan Stone Town".

The real three "swan stones" have been installed on the sled as a whole.

The large army began to return, and the food and supplies in stock are still very sufficient today, and it is no problem even to feed the six hundred female prisoners.

The crusade ended like this?

Kagan, who took his brothers to sit by the campfire and ate porridge, was very happy that his subordinates were holding a Karelian woman.

Not only do they eat by themselves, they are also busy stuffing wheat into their women's mouths, and holding their women into their shack at night.

When they waited until the next day, they changed their appearances one after another.

Both men and women of Pecheneg people wear weird pigtails behind their heads. Women have braids because of the tradition of growing their hair, which makes them even more fancy.

These Pechenegger men not only took possession of their bodies, but also further transformed the Karelian woman Pechenegge.

Women's stretched "black long straight" hairstyles are gone, replaced by dense braided hair, and some dyed twine is also mixed into the hair as a kind of decoration.

The intention of doing so is already very obvious, although it will slow down the speed when returning home with some materials purchased in Rose, wouldn't it be more tedious to bring a woman?

That must also be done. The Pechenegg tribal alliance needs foreign women to give birth to new fighters at any time, not to mention the appearance of these women is not much different from that of the Pechenegg women. When they put on traditional grassland costumes, there is no difference.

This team keeps advancing, and who has gained experience in the winter campaign is the Ross Cavalry.

Every one of them killed the enemy! The fierce performance can be described as the brown bear~www.mtlnovel.com~ The sons of the farmers can no longer go back. They have had the experience of killing enemies and have really seen blood, and the whole person's temperament has changed for it.

This was originally the son of the Boyar Tu nobles, and they had taken the cavalry to fight with their steel swords, and they regarded themselves very high, but now they are even more arrogant.

Because the prince must be appointed, their status is the real Ross warrior, has belonged to the top class of the principality.

Without him, although the pure Rose has only eighty people, each of them will be officers in the future, and they will have to rule over ten people at the last time. The best of them can also become the flag captain of the expanded cavalry flag team.

Naturally, this Eastern Expedition was also greatly touched by Rurik. He was extremely well prepared for this battle. As a result, the war ended with more than a hundred cavalry assaults.

The cavalry embodies a huge tactical advantage, so why not expand?

The plan to expand the cavalry has already been specified.

"It seems that the cavalry work is going to speed up..."
