When the Ross fleet anchored on Saaremaa Island, the islanders finally had the style of the Ross Principality Navy.

They are very fortunate to have made the right squad. This huge navy is not a rival, and they will join them in rowing boats themselves.

Do you want to be a pirate attacking and looting again?

Prince Ross obviously disdains to do this kind of thing.

The islanders of Saaremaa were almost out of their nests. At the time of the prime of life, Tralang brought his islanders to organize a fleet to join the Ross Navy.

It was precisely this opportunity. Lurik took the flagship cruise around the island, and personally boarded the villages of the island, and gained a very intuitive understanding of the entire Saaremaa Island.

That being the case, the sea area south of the island naturally attracted his attention.

The whole army has to do the last rest on this island. The rest time is extremely short. However, the trawling equipment carried by fishermen from all walks of life has been tentatively fishing, and the fishermen with the mentality of trying it out quickly reap unexpected catches.

What is the scale effect? This is the scale effect.

Bulurik took his own hands, and more than four hundred large and small ships with him began to plunder the herring resources in the waters near Saaremaa Island.

But it is precisely the 20 official fishing boats that signed the contract, that is, the boats numbered RFB01 to RFB20, which left their nets and cruised like a blue whale with a big mouth. People on the boats think it's okay. When it is finished, the giant hemp rope net is recovered with a winch, and the herring that is as long as the forearm is collected on the deck, and then shoveled into the basket with a wooden shovel.

Because Saaremaa Island is already the territory of the Ross Principality, fishermen from all walks of life have no psychological burden to fish here.

Even the original islanders were shocked. They couldn't imagine that there were such a wealth of fish in the waters near their islands!

With very backward fishing techniques, how can the people of Saarema become wealthy?

A large number of Ross trawlers have joined the "battlefield". It seems that the herring school will be wiped out? In fact, this is not the case, because even if the Principality of Ross does its utmost, the search of the South Baltic fisheries can still be called Gu Sha. Instead, they began an organized "big sweeping" of a small area of the sea.

Their first day of fishing had already met the food for the entire giant fleet, and with the more rampant night fishing with electric lights after nightfall, a large amount of fish were sent to the shore early in the morning.

"Saarema" originally meant "island", but now it may be more appropriate to call it "herring island".

This is a big island, at its widest point up to 80 kilometers, but there is only one fishing village, and it is located in a small bay in the north of the island.

Xiuma Island is also yearning for Saaremaa Island, which is also a big island.

The narrow sea area between the two islands is used as a dock for big ships. In this tiny strait, the two islands seem to be about to join together. In a sense, this is already a lagoon, and the main force of the fleet is moored in a clean water. In, where is it suitable for this place not to be a berth?

It's no problem to live on such a huge island with tens of thousands of people, but there are only a few hundred islanders here.

There are undeveloped areas everywhere, and the island's forest resources are luxuriant, and many of them are good materials for shipbuilding, such as oak trees.

The beach is full of bonfires, and the Ross fishermen who landed are already building their temporary shelters.

They began large-scale logging, and spruce, red pine, white oak, red oak, and ash trees fell one after another.

All kinds of wood have various uses. Spruce is very suitable for building houses. Red oak is the so-called most common Nordic oak. Because of its strong elasticity, ash is a pity not to be used to make bows.

The fishermen were cooking fish on a large scale. The excessively lit bonfire stalls erected wooden poles and tied hemp ropes. The ropes were full of herrings with pinched heads and guts. The fresh fish will be gradually dried and become a characteristic smoked fish with no taste. Their purpose is to pillage herring, and it makes no difference whether they are in the waters further south or on the island of Saaremaa.

But Jeflo took his men into the forest on the island with the purpose of simply looking for books. He found the thick oak tree, marked it, and left it to the Ross man with a double saw behind. He was mainly looking for the so-called "ash tree." The ash tree has a grayish bark, its shape is too straight but the body is generally smaller than the red pine, it is easy to identify, this has been very experienced in Yevlo.

As long as the "ash trees" were found, he ordered his subordinates and felled them. After the branches were stripped off, the trunks of any thickness were carried on his shoulders, and the brothers carried them to the coast and took care of them. According to his thoughts, these unexpectedly happy treasures were to be taken home and placed in the house for a winter in the shade, and the large-scale bow-making project would be started in the summer of next year.

The sea breeze was blowing on the overcrowded coast, but a rain interrupted people's good mood.

The fishermen scolded that the **** rain came suddenly!

The summer rain always comes suddenly, it falls violently, and it can always come to an abrupt end.

The downpour fell, and the dried fish that had been processed before was too late to be guaranteed due to moisture-proof problems, and the work fell short.

People hide in simple wooden sheds to avoid the rain, and the sheds naturally leak rain everywhere, making people wet on a large scale.

But Rurik was a top nobleman, he couldn't afford to be so embarrassed.

A large house of the islanders was designated as a palace by him, and the parliamentary chamber of the islanders was still the parliamentary chamber.

Spuyut has been canonized as the governor of the island and has completed a walled fortress, and the buildings within the wall have also begun to be Rothified.

This place is still very simple, and Rurik and Svetlana have a very good mentality, even if there is a big fish outdoors.

On this day, a group of damp people gathered in the parliamentary chamber of the islanders.

Prince Rose is the absolute protagonist. Everyone is looking forward to his generous speech. When the rain is over, he will rush to Bornholm Island.

A pair of eyes looked at Rurik waiting for him to preach.

"Saarema is a good place!" His emotion relaxes the slightly tense atmosphere.

He continued: "In my opinion, some people no longer intend to go south, so they stay on the island and go fishing. That's good, I will undoubtedly bring a large number of vultures to fight, our army will not be temporarily There needs to be a large number of complex people who are difficult to control at all times. Instead of looting the catch near Bornholm Island, let them stay here. Tralang!"

"Huh?" Tralang, a mature islander, hurriedly raised his head.

"You are a native islander, what do you think?"

"I... I don't know..."

"Are you stuttering again? I have decided that Saarema should develop well. As long as the people of the principality taste the sweetness, fishermen will rush here to fish every year, and your fishing village will prosper quickly."

"This is a good thing."

Rurik shrugged: "I know you, and I hope you will not be disgusted. You and the other islanders should understand that when you ask to join Ross, this island is mine. How to develop it? My wishes. Now, I am happy to develop it into a southern fishing base."

However, Tralan felt inexplicable for this explanation of Prince Rurik.

Although the islanders opened up settlements in Saarema, they never claimed sovereignty, just like migratory birds just live here.

If you just leave Rick on these things in the Chamber, the meeting will indeed make the audience drowsy.

Rurik snapped his thigh: "Tlalang! Do you know anything about the waters south of the island? From my point of view, the south is a huge bay."

Tralang suddenly stunned: "Prince! Do you know that the south is a bay?"

"Yes. It's called Riga Bay?"

"The Gulf of Riga? If it is the name of the huge bay, it is no problem, you are the name."

Tralang's reaction is very subtle. It feels as if the islanders who have lived for generations have no interest in the Gulf of Riga, and even simply call the Gulf of Riga "a bay".

"Since the bay is on the coast, do you know anything about the coast in the depths of the bay? Are there other people living there?"

"Yes!" Tralang replied decisively.

"who?"

Suddenly, this Tralang laughed out in public.

"Just say something, what are you laughing at?!" Rurik asked slightly displeased.

"Because those people are on this island. They are by your side."

"Oh? What does this mean?"

For the time being, Liu Rick didn't understand, as some seemingly dull people were brought to the parliamentary court and let them show up to speak, things became more subtle.

There were not many people in the parliament court. The new guys who entered the house were still covered in rain. They all had black hair and were not well-dressed.

They definitely can't speak Norse, and they can't even speak Slavic.

Rurik tentatively communicated with them in Old Finnish, expecting some words to be understood. Not to mention, the other party can only understand a little bit, but he mumbled some difficult sentences.

"What are they talking about?!" Arik who was in the audience was very impatient.

"It's their language." Tralang shrugged and smiled: "Obviously I should be the translator."

"You can speak for them." Rurik reluctantly ordered.

Because Saaremaa was originally an uninhabited island, all the Vikings exiled by the tribe set up settlements here. Because of their despicable status, they basically lost contact with their homeland, so they could only find a way to go to the south to see the situation. Soon they got in touch with the Baltic tribes on the coast. The Baltic people only built canoes, and a few followed the Viking exiles on the island of Saaremaa. Others simply took a canoe to the island forcibly.

People from all walks of life gathered on the island, and their bloodlines were different, but they had the same origin on a large scale-the exiles.

Tralang himself was a mixed race, and his hair was brown and yellowish.

There are Estonians, Randars (Livonians), Latgars (Latvians), and Kurds (Kurlans).

Some nouns Rurik understands the meaning, and some are very unfamiliar.

However, he is very clear about the geographical structure of this sea area, because the Gulf of Riga is indeed a large quiet bay.

Now that there are new ethnic groups, what is their situation?

"You are from different tribes? Now you are all Ruths and my subjects. Just tell me, you or the tribe to which your ancestors belonged, what is the local situation?"

Rurik continued his hearing, and the problem became purposefully targeted.

For example, how many people there are in those tribes, what they rely on for their livelihoods, the tools and weapons they use can be metalware, and whether they can spin and weave.

He quickly got the answer. Those tribes all know how to make ironware, they know how to cultivate and fish, and they can weave hemp and hunt beasts. That is, the number of people is unknown.

They left their parents' ancestors on the matter of their ancestral home. They hadn't contacted them for a long, long time, and God knew what was going on there.

They still provided a very crucial description-the tribes are clustered in the form of a large number of small villages, and there is no such a largest ruler as Prince Rus.

Tralang kept patting his chest and claiming that the translation was correct. No doubt such a description immediately aroused the ambitions of people of insight.

Arik looked up to the sky and laughed: "This is the opportunity Odin has given us! God is suggesting that we expand to a larger land and conquer new people. Rurik, you must not miss this opportunity."

In this way, Jeflo also persuaded: "Since they are each forming a village, we can organize an army to destroy each one. Prince! You should dominate more."

At this moment, a wise man yelled loudest.

This person is no one else, but Swinder, the messenger and talker of Bornholm.

If it can cause trouble, how can it be bad?

Swinder blared wildly. He didn't know what was going on in the south, so he hurriedly pointed out that there are fertile farmland, high-quality trees, and endless small animals. The so-called Ross people have it on the other side.

How can't Rurik understand the implication? Wasn't it just slamming oneself immediately to the south to rob, and at the same time spare Bornholm's life, no matter how long the war will be delayed, as long as the time is delayed, Bornholm still has a chance.

Rurik pointed to his nose and told him to shut up first.

Even Ragnar joined in, persuading Rurik to expand the territory. But how does this benefit Ragnar's exiled Danish lord? As the saying goes, the horses are photographed well, so that he can gain further trust from Rurik, and it is also good for the revival of the tribe. In short, there is absolutely no harm.

Rurik looked at everyone, his heart was beating wildly.

He paused: "My dream is to use Rose's sword to smash a large territory. Does anyone think I will give up this opportunity? Tell you! It's absolutely impossible! But!"

Once the "but" is reached, things get complicated.

"Don't think about the short-sightedness of those who followed our army. Saarema's catch is very rich, so they stay and do not want to continue to attack Bornholm. Our goal is to conquer Bornholm. Um, it cannot be changed at this juncture."

Arik immediately followed his brother's words and continued: "So we should make a plan. After solving the Bornholm problem, will we go to the southern bay and recover those people on the coast? I know you don't want to. Killing wildly, if the locals surrender quickly, everyone will be happy. But I believe they are also courageous tribes, and I can help you win the matter of conquering the people of the southern bay of the island."

Arik, this is please~www.mtlnovel.com~ But when Rurik thought of the bravery of his cousin, he was worried that this guy led the brothers on, just like cutting melons and vegetables, cutting down the available labor. Exhausted.

Seeing that the timing was about the same, Rurik set the tone as a prince: "To solve the Bornholm islanders this year, we will solve the problem of the residents of the Gulf of Riga south of Saaremaa as soon as next year. Saaremaa will To become a key marine trade node like Tombstone Island, we will contact those newly conquered people. Let us live a good life, at least let them live well. In the future, we will have more trading partners and one more. To criticize the Confederate army."

"Who knows?" Arik said haha, his attitude was clearly distrustful.

Today's Rurik is naturally not too naive. He clapped his thigh and made a final conclusion: "Those guys need a master, it's me! They and the land they settled in must be merged into Rose."

History has entered this time point, or this is the inevitable trend of history. As the ruler of Ross, Rurik has stepped on the accelerator of the wheel of history.

The so-called plan for Ross to conquer the "Three Baltic States (currently only a large group of tribes has been drawn up, and the rest is only a matter of time.
