Chapter 425: Yes, but you have to add money

It seems that money can only buy some people, or most dukes are still waiting.

At this time, Olekin, who was in a mess, saw Otto, who had been silent, and the two children around him.

The whole scene made him feel deviated, as if the Ross people didn't care about their own decision or even the quarrels that were taking place.

Olekin spoke: "Otto, my old buddy, you Russ, are you willing to continue to fight with me south? We attacked the silver fort in the south. A lot of money and endless glory are ours."

It sounds tempting, but it just sounds tempting. Look at the current atmosphere. Everyone is either opposed or skeptical. Where are the real **** supporters?

Otto calmly moved Rurikla to his side, gently supporting his son's shoulders with both hands: "Olekin, you shouldn't ask me, just ask Rurik."

As for Rurik, he looked into the eyes of King Origen, calmly, and said a simple answer in the eyes cast by many allies-I objected.

Yes, Rurik is an opponent at this moment, because the Russ' contract is fulfilled, the contract is renewed or a new agreement is signed, the Russ do not support it, and there is no power to force it.

Rurik said frankly: "King, it is not in our plan to continue fighting south."

"I've decided, I'm here now."

"No! Not in the contract." Rurik looked at the left and right forms and slowly said: "We Rus have done our best to do our best. I see that my allies have made a fortune, and my soldiers are already complaining. If you continue, Go down..."

Olekin shook his head. He still felt that Rurik could have a high opinion, and he could not think that the negative remarks were the same as everyone else. "You mean, you object?"

"It's okay to continue fighting, you have to add more money."

"Adding money?!" Olekin was overwhelmed when it came to giving money. "Good boy, how much benefit do you want to get?"

At this moment, Rurik broke free from his father's big hand and walked three steps forward. His blue eyes looked straight at Oleg, and he said very solemnly: "Give me at least one hundred thousand silver coins."

"What? How much did you say?" Olekin even took a step back subconsciously.

"Give me one hundred thousand silver coins! After all, we Russ have contributed to the capture of Kalmar. All men are present. At least whose arrow you are all destroyed the Kalmar army. King, if you don’t give money, Even if I personally are willing to go south with you, my soldiers are unwilling. They will definitely hold me back and force me to withdraw to my hometown."

According to conscience, the special struggle of the Ross people is indeed the key to a quick victory, but to be honest, if the infantry were to fight at close range, Olekin would never confess the enemy, but the price of such a victory was even greater. The current situation is that the expected **** battle in Kalmar did not happen, and the battle became a devastating massacre by the Swedish army.

The coalition forces have a huge new force, which is the basis for continuing to fight!

Olekin hesitated a little, he didn't realize that Rurik's remarks were intentional.

"Then then let's go! No one is stopping you!" Carl yelled, and then said some vicious words.

Only because Karl knew that Rurik’s request was absolutely impossible to accept, or that Rurik’s request was forcing the king to drive Rose away.

The atmosphere was suddenly tense, for example, Otto's sword was already half drawn.

Seeing this fear, Olekin was so angry that he pushed Karl away: "How dare you insult your allies?!"

When he regained his senses, he saw that the Rurik kid was still standing still, his eyes were not trembling, but the oil lamp flames in the tent were beating violently, which was almost murderous.

Carl disdainfully said: "This is the most greedy request! King, this kid is slanderous, why should we give him one hundred thousand silver coins? He is crazy!"

"Let’s stop there!" Rurik remained unchanged: "We Ross people have fulfilled all our promises. Wang, I do not support or oppose your new resolution, unless you really put out one hundred thousand. Silver coins are used as military expenses for our Russians."

One hundred thousand silver coins were one thousand pounds of silver, and Rurik concluded that Olegin could not get it out. Based on his own estimation, he may search the entire Kalmar coin. Whether its total value is a thousand pounds of silver is unknown.

It seems that the situation is a bit weird, and Rurik is planning to announce that the Ross people have unilaterally withdrawn from the battle.

He whirled his body and faced the dukes present: "Everyone, I am very happy to fight with you up to now. As you can see, the so-called trophies that we Ross people have obtained are only dried fish in the belly. How should Kalmar's silver coins be distributed? , That’s what you and the king have to discuss. The battle involving us in the Rus is over, there is nothing more to say, goodbye."

As soon as the voice fell, Rurik walked straight out of the door. Without looking back, he left many dukes in the big tent.

In this situation, Otto, who wanted to raise his fist to give Karl a few blows, glared at Karl and spit out: "Boy, your father is the king, you are not yet."

The Ruths left the venue unhappily and the whole meeting became very boring. Otto and Carlotta evacuated together, and it was impossible to keep the Russ.

Olekin, who was thrown down, had his head confused for a while. He was confused, but he would not continue to criticize his crown prince's recklessness in front of everyone.

The Rus people's great achievement was that they clearly didn't give face to their king, and their defiant appearance made Olekin feel that his chest was pressing on the boulder.

He clutched his chest and deliberately said: "Let them go, and the spoils will naturally not be given to them. And you, dukes, are you still willing to continue to fight south? You may not know, the news I have learned, the Silver Fort really has silver coins. A pile of mountains! Some people have given up the opportunity to share the Silver Mountain, I hope you won’t."

In an instant, the attention of the dukes present was all on the so-called Silver Mountain. When the Ross people evacuated, it was indeed the one missing the cake!

Olekin tried his best to persuade the so-called Silver Fort and the so-called Silver Mountain. All the rhetoric was obviously made by him at this moment to fool everyone. The result? The old guy was talking so much that he actually believed it.

People are deeply stimulated by such language, and a more determined person like Wenderson also said that the battle can continue. "You still have to give us a lot of money, but I won't be as greedy as the Ross people. The words of the Ross people are not unreasonable. The brothers are too tired. It is indeed undesirable to attack with a tired army."

Others followed up. Ungriffe of Unkras suggested: “I’ll transport the trophies back first, and then recruit some fighters from my homeland. It’s still June. I think we will dispatch troops at the beginning of August. With the spoils, I just went back to harvest the wheat."

"This is good!" Wenderson immediately expressed his support.

To trim a month? Olekin thought for a while, and now he really wants to compromise on his allies, but if he angers one more, he will withdraw like a Rusman.

He didn't blame the Ross people, the contract was the contract. The Ross people wanted to help the Allied forces reach Kalmar. Now that the mission has been completed, it makes sense for them to leave. The same is a contract, and it makes sense not to give them the spoils immediately.

After calming down, Olekin thought, Lurik made a request that the Mellaren people would never be able to implement, and took out one hundred thousand silver coins? What a trouble! Adding money is not such an addition.

Kalmar at night is like a violent volcanic crater. The dense smoke obscures the stars and illuminates the entire Swedish military camp.

Kalmar has become a scorched earth, and its usefulness is temporarily gone.

Olekin and the dukes of the main battle have laid down their new plan in detail, which is to completely burn Kalmar. Now that it is on fire, it will burn the fire more thoroughly in order to vent their anger to the Danish forces.

The main force of the team withdrew the captured prisoners to Borgholm. The damage to the local fortress was only the wooden door that was knocked down, and the nearby houses were mostly intact. Throughout this area, Borgholm is indeed the best rallying point.

Such a large army temporarily placed the trophies collected by Kalmar in Borgholm. After the troops were repaired for a few days, they organized a fleet to transport them back to their hometown on Lake Mälaren. When the fleet is heading south in July, a recruited new force will come!

Even without the support of the Ross people, Olekin, who has achieved a series of victories, is confident that he no longer needs to ask the Ross people to fight for self-help. At most, it is enough to buy their good weapons.

On the other hand, Rurik put a serious and undue gesture in the tent, and he really felt relaxed when he walked out of the tent.

However, Otto, who rushed to catch up, grabbed his neck and said, "Ruriek, you said something like that!"

"Huh?" Rurik was taken aback. "You want to blame me?"

"No! You know that they will definitely oppose it. With 100,000 silver coins, our contract is far from so many."

"I did it on purpose, dad, you have also seen their attitude."

Otto loosened his big hands and clenched his fists. "Let's go, go back to the camp and talk about it. Kid, I know you have other ideas."

The most useful "trophies" that the Rus people caught in this battle were jerky fish. When Otto and Rurik returned, the ten sheep had been skinned and roasted on the fire. Many people who have eaten have curled up asleep, and the others are still eating half-baked meat.

Seeing the return of the Duke, Jeflo hurriedly slapped the lazy guys, and a group of mercenaries gathered.

"You continue to eat." Otto waved his hand, but he was about to bring a greasy leg of lamb to feast on by the campfire.

Otto put his anger on the gnawing meat, and his blood bowl was about to gnaw the leg of lamb into pieces. The Ross man was offended by Origen. At that moment, Otto really wanted to break Karl's tooth and make this stinky mouth honest.

"Dad, are you still angry?" Rurik was also gnawing meat, but his actions were much more refined.

"There are a lot of idiots in this place. Olekin didn't say anything. From my point of view, that old boy just thinks that victory is his top skill. In the future, without our assistants, they can still easily succeed."

"Huh? You care about them? Why do we Ross people care about the attitudes of others? Recognizing him as a king was only out of consideration from the beginning, right?"

When Rurik said so, Otto was relieved a lot.

"They don't welcome us to grab the spoils, anyway, our army has completed the contract, and if the fight continues, he still won't pay..."

Otto shook his head: "One hundred thousand silver coins, he will definitely not give it."

"What I want is this effect."

Otto, who was in a calm mood, asked himself, as the leader of the Ross tribe, he could announce the continuation of the battle and establish greater glory. "In fact, if the money he gave is reasonable, we can continue to go south. In my opinion, the enemy is not as strong as I imagined. Our coalition forces can defeat more enemies."

Rurik was stunned and turned to look at Otto: "No! Not at all. That's because we are very strong in Rus. Keep fighting with Olekin, it is no longer our battle. If there is a battle, I will also Go north."

"That's it? Look at your soldiers. They didn't make a fortune because of the war. Everyone looked regretful."

Otto seemed to be suggesting something, Rurik didn't care, because he had planned a new plan a long time ago, or that this plan was deeply ingrained in the heart of every Ross warrior.

Rurik deliberately said: "There are still a thousand of our soldiers on Tombstone Island. They are still in a daze, and more soldiers in the hometown are gearing up. We have to attack a target personally. We can make a fortune on our own. Brothers chilling!"

Let anger go to hell! Otto's eyeballs lit up two fires, and his greasy hands patted Rurik's back vigorously; "Speaking of which, like a warrior. Come on, who should be chopped off?"

"The Gotlanders! We attacked Gotland, attacked their core, the place called Visby."

"Ah?! You... are you looking forward to a decisive battle?"

"What? You lack confidence?"

"This..." Otto really lacks confidence. Out of his inherent cognition, even if the enemies of Gotland are poor in combat power, how many people there are! What is the strength of the Rus? Should we gamble on everything and gather all the fighters to implement a decisive battle?

Rurik said bluntly: "I just want to bet on national luck! No, this is not a bet. Dad, you may not be able to estimate that our Rus tribe is actually very strong. Look at the Gotland people, they are currently losing Denmark. Asylum of the forces. Let Olekin go to fight to the death against the Danes who may kill, we go to conquer Gotland."

"Can we... really win a big victory?"

"As long as we gather enough troops, we will be able to win a big victory, but the decisive battle must be commanded by me in order to safely win. Looking at the current situation, if we really return home empty-handed, people will find it incredible. So, let's just gamble. One hand, using all of Rose’s strength, wouldn’t it be great for us to take down Visbyburg in Gotland, let them surrender, and take away their wealth?"

Otto was trembling with shock, and the leg of lamb in his hand no longer fragrant: "I thought about this before, but I didn't expect your kid to decide to do it."

"Are you still scared?"

"Fear? You suspect that your father is afraid of those stupid Gotlanders?!"

Rurik didn't change his face: "Don't worry, this is our war. We Rus only fight for ourselves. God bless us, so our army will win."

While Otto still had some doubts, Carlota ran over resolutely and rushed to Rurik's side: "I support! I and Aosta absolutely support! Those who plunder the most are the Gotlanders. We must continue to take revenge! Until they are completely surrendered."

"Look." Rurik smiled slightly: "The Ostras demand revenge, and I will continue to take revenge. In my opinion, the ultimate revenge is to conquer them, make them us, and make them forget their past. Identity, but a new Russ who thinks of himself. Dad, maybe you think this is strange, but I want to rule a huge principality, I have to do this."

"Let them surrender? Are they willing to surrender?" Otto still thought the matter was ridiculous, and couldn't help poking his lips.

"Easy! Surrendered forgiveness~www.novelhall.com~ Resolute resisters may be killed by suspected rebels. Dad, in my opinion, Karl does not welcome us. We in Ross should also think about it. If Karl becomes king, What will our situation be like? Maybe that day, Karl will take the initiative to reject us, and even war will break out."

"It's... not impossible."

"In my opinion, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. He does not share the interests with us, why should we be with him? If we share the interests of the Gotland people, we will become friends. I will fight now. They have to surrender, just this year! Just before the wheat harvest!"

Since kneeling before the high priest and being ordered by Rose's grandmother, Otto's feelings about his son have changed.

It must be the gods who blessed the Rus, so he was given to Rurik. Otto has always supported Rurik. Although this time I was afraid to gather all the strength of the Rus to launch a decisive battle, it seems that the victory still belongs to Ross.

"Then do it! We will leave as soon as we finish replenishing fresh water tomorrow morning. This ghost place is full of burnt smell, and I don't want to stay for a moment." As he said, Otto threw the lamb bones into the fire and ordered the exchange between father and son just now. Evlo, who was shocked and chilled, went to break off a piece of lamb chop.
