Although a torrential downpour drowned out the looming threat of flames for the Ghotarans who were trapped in the fortress of Visingoth.
Has the crisis really touched? There is no turning point in the crisis.
First it was scorched by fire, and then it was poured cold water abruptly.
The fire in the port area is a special kind of artificial rainfall. When the rich water vapor in the area falls back to the ground, the local temperature also drops suddenly. The people of Gotaland had to face the cold predicament, and to make matters worse, 7,000 people crammed into a fort the size of about two football fields, which was originally the residence of the ruler "Crazy Bear" Karl, and all the houses were owned by him. And the houses of the brothers are now filled with a large number of fishermen and pawns, making the situation in the fort in chaos.
The armed soldiers would never let these outsiders enter their mansion, so the people who took refuge could only sleep in the muddy and extremely tortuous lanes.
There were people sitting everywhere, nibbling on the food they brought with them, and more people ate nothing.
They escaped so tightly that their belongings and food storage were burnt to the ground in the fire yesterday.
Or because of the rain, some people can only drink the rainwater to get "full of water", and because of the sudden cold supermarket, there are many people who suffer from diarrhea.
A lot of foul-smelling **** matter appeared in the cramped area. Some people suffered from acute diarrhea and collapsed in pain. Such people are suddenly mobilized soldiers. They are very weak. They still have to wear a wooden shield with their left arm and hold a harpoon with their right hand to meet the next challenge as warriors.
Nominally, there are 3,000 Gotalans on the island of Wessingösser in Lake Wettern. If Karl "Mad Bear" can mobilize the city of Jonkoping in the south of the lake, the size of the army can also be expanded.
He hoped that the merchants in Jönköping could pull the brothers together because they were all from the same family, but there was no sign of a miracle happening.
The messengers sent out to contact Jönköping in the south seem to have always been the same, and trying to contact them now is a fool's errand.
Because the ships in the port area and the port have become scorched ruins, as long as you stand on the wooden wall of the fort and look at the port area, there are all black wooden blocks, collapsed houses, and the lake is broken. hull.
Thanks to the low walls of the fortress, it provides psychological shelter for all.
The purpose of the low wall is not to protect the people, but to protect the guys in the fishing village.
Up to now, Carl, who is facing a life-and-death situation, has actually turned from a bone-sucking person to a guardian of the people.
Originally, the people of the fishing village only respected the tyrant of the warlord for his king's exploits, and life would go on. If only paying some taxes could exchange for the protection of Karl "Crazy Bear" and his military group, paying tribute was okay. It's only been ten years! This lake area is peaceful, although there are some strange news from the outside world, it has nothing to do with Lake Wettern after all. It was only the brothers who expanded to the north to gnaw on the Swedes' territory, and it was the brothers who took the initiative to launch offensive and sneak attacks.
Up to now, the public can only regard Carl as the savior, hoping that he will be responsible for the "ten-year protection fee" and lead the public to drive out the invaders.
At least people gathered and the men took up arms. At first glance, this huge army had an undeniable strength in strength. Even though they had experienced hardships, they had never lost in land battles, and they were optimistic about the future.
Karl "Crazy Bear" is also optimistic, but not arrogant.
In the early morning, he gathered his cronies in the largest building on the island, asking them what they had seen and heard in the streets and alleys of the fort, and what they had seen and heard about the people who were sent to explore the messy port area.
"You went to the port, what did you see? Is there a barge?" he asked.
The explorer's spirit was almost collapsed, and he shouted with a crying voice: "Boss, it's over! Those enemies destroyed all the ships, they were burned and smashed. We... can't escape the island!"
"Damn it! Can't even make a raft?"
"We don't even have good wood. If we have to do it, we have torn down the wooden walls to make rafts, but..."
What is the hidden words of the explorer? Carl is very clear. The brothers are in urgent need of time now, but what is most needed now is time. Brothers, I'm afraid you don't even have time to escape! Besides, what if you escape? The all-powerful brothers have been pampered for ten years, and they have lost all success in fleeing, and will they work for other strongmen in the future? Can you bear it? No reason!
Some people were lamenting and weeping, and more people were so angry that their blood swelled up and their faces seemed to be painted with red dye.
Some ruthless attackers were furious: "I still don't know who the attackers are. They came from the north, so they must be Swedes."
Someone immediately echoed: "Who else is there besides them. It may also be the legendary Rus..."
"It's actually Swedes! It can only be like that. Is there a difference between Ross and Sweden? They're both northern guys, and they're afraid they're trying to settle accounts for the past few decades. I heard that our two races had a big fight a long time ago. , it may be our generation facing a decisive battle again.”
An elderly veteran mentioned stories he heard when he was young, and his remarks also aroused Carl's memories of old stories.
"That's it!" Karl waved his hand: "Now it's not about the identity of the enemy, they have landed, and they are going to chop off our heads with an axe. Burning down the port is forcing us not to leave. They want to kill the entire island."
"If you want to die! Then hit a fish and die!" Someone said viciously.
Someone refuted with anger and contempt: "The fish died and the net broke? What are we going to do with them? Just rely on our hundreds of brothers and thousands of **** outside? They have never killed people, only the experience of killing fish and wild boars. Now the defecation is making our fort stink."
"Who else can be used besides them? Could those guys be killed by necks? I don't believe that the attackers are in front of them. A group of fishermen will kneel down and beg the attackers to be quick when they behead their heads."
……
They themselves got into a quarrel, and it was Karl who had to shout at this moment.
"Fools, stop arguing! Our brothers are at the moment of life and death. I have lived for forty years, and many people say that I am no longer old, especially those fishermen. I heard that some people cursed me to die early! Bah! Even if I die, I will drag those guys to die together. I will die as a soldier, how about you...?"
The subordinates looked at each other. Although some were hesitant, their hesitant attitude was absolutely not to be displayed.
They firmly believed in each other and expressed a unified attitude - fighting the attacker to the last person.
The momentum is there, the brothers are absolutely insufficient.
This is not difficult for Carl, because there are still a large number of women who need to be mobilized.
They are all Vikings, and female Viking warriors are never uncommon. When the question of life and death is in front of them, women must also go to the battlefield.
Carl took his brothers out of the mansion, and took his five hundred armored people to show off in the fortress. These people first mobilized their wives, concubines, slave girls, and even older daughters. Their sons were as armed as they could be, even with a sharpened stick to make up the numbers.
Karl announced a horrific fact among the crowd: "The enemy is the Swedes! They are coming for revenge! They are going to kill us all, they are going to take this lake! Now all of you must come out with weapons, and we will go out of town and attack them! "
A full-scale conscription suddenly started, no matter whether the opponent was willing or not, whether the physical condition was adequate, even those who were suffering from diarrhea were drawn into the army.
Men, women, old people, children, anyone who could pick up a stick was shoved into the army.
Carl continued to frighten them: "You either follow us to attack! Or die! Those who dare to hesitate, I will help you die first!"
Sure enough, Carl did what he said and ordered his subordinates to hang ten people in public.
He did not execute people randomly, because these ten people suffered from severe diarrhea, and it was impossible for them to go to war. Then use death to warn all hesitants that they do not want to fight.
He is a warlord tyrant, and he has no guilt in carrying out this tyranny. In particular, he wanted the people to watch the tortured people being slowly hanged, so that they could see the horror of death and be forced to fight to survive.
In desperation, people also saw that those who usually showed off their might actually armed their wives, concubines and slaves. Obviously, "Crazy Bear" Carl didn't ask them to go to death, but he himself also fought.
Carl did give up. He wanted many people to sacrifice their lives for himself, and it was unreasonable to force them to work **** an empty stomach.
The warehouse was opened, and it was filled with some reserved salted fish.
The armed people were eating salted fish with a variety of flavors. Unexpectedly, everyone ate Carl's gift. What is the cost? Fighting for Carl's own life as well.
Just as the fortress of Wiesingerser was actively mobilizing the armed forces, the sun rose quietly.
The moisture of the earth was further evaporated. At this moment, the fog was filling and gradually dissipating. The sunlight created a charming curtain and completely covered the raider camp in the northern part of the island.
In the trance, the people in the fortress heard the roar in the distance, listen carefully, it was the dull drum sound! Accompanied by the sound of the drums, there is also the sound of a horn with strong penetrating power, which is like the **** of the devil.
People were terrified. At this moment, Karl was wearing a bear skin and a bear head. He stood on a high place and raised his long-handled double-edged battle axe with both hands, which symbolized his own strength, and roared: "We have weapons! Kill all the attackers!"
The closed wooden door was opened, and the people with various weapons were mostly barefoot, walking on the cold mud ground to the front of the position.
They had to gather in a group to mention each other. The permeating fog was not a cover for escape, but full of danger.
Most of Carl's elite troops stood on the flanks of the armed people, and he was just preventing these people from taking the opportunity to escape.
They walked on the flat and wet grass, and the island was very narrow and deep.
The fog is rapidly dissipating, and everyone knows that the fateful moment is not far away. It was the Gotalandans on the island who launched the attack first, and it was their choice whether to succeed or not. As if a sharp arrow had flown out, Karl "Crazy Bear" and his brothers were ready to die in battle.
The priests walked in front of the battle and prayed for this army. In principle, they have never been involved in the battle. Now they are forced to enter the battlefield by Karl, otherwise the priests will be killed.
On the other side of the battlefield, when the drums and horns sounded loudly, the Rus-Swedish-Finnish coalition, as well as several other allied and servant tribes, all kinds of warriors rose up.
Yesterday's heavy rain troubled the army. Due to preparations, the rain trouble was suppressed to a very low level.
The soldiers were ready for battle, they put on their own armor, the Rus Duchy troops in the army put on uniforms, and even the Finnish flag team in Yevlo.
Kavey led the craftsmen to cooperate with the soldiers to push and pull a large number of carts, on which were placed fifty torsional slingshots with wooden pins to adjust the shooting angle, as well as the projectiles and javelins that were shipped.
The 20 bull catapults were carried by the soldiers with their bare hands, and someone was responsible for carrying the stone bullets on their backs.
Most of this work is done by the young Sixth Banner.
Rurik was only ready for today's decisive battle. He had a huge military advantage. Except for a small number of troops staying in the camp, the army and navy main ships were operating at the same time.
He and Arik are cousins, but in the Viking tradition, Aric, as Otto's nephew and adopted son, is Rurik's eldest brother.
The two brothers commanded a huge army and also made a clear division of labor.
Arik is in charge of commanding the fleet and leading the ruthless people of the first flag team in various senses, and he goes around the port area with the cooperation of the fleet in a "Ma Run" attitude. attack immediately. The soldiers of the first flag team are all Jingui, and their personal combat effectiveness is excellent. Now they are all wearing chain mail reinforced with iron sheets. Most of the soldiers pay for themselves and then purchase weapons and armor in their hometowns to strengthen themselves.
They are all eager to make new outstanding feats, and the glorious task of attacking the fortress from the flank and waiting for an opportunity to complete a breakthrough will be handed over to them!
With the addition of armed sailors and some auxiliary personnel, there will be 800 people who will attack by water.
Rurik then led the main force of 5,000 people to push down to the south.
Look! The army lined up in the dissipating fog.
Rurik was using his tactic, pincer attack, again.
Or it is re-enacting "Canning's Hannibal Tactics".
The Ross land army was spread out, and the second and third flag teams belonging to the Principality of Ross were divided into two wings. They belonged to the elite troops and would engage in the most vicious shovel fights in melee combat.
More than 2,000 troops from Melalen, Yermalen, Onkras, and various small Swedish tribes gathered together in the center of the army. These people seem to be the Chinese army, and their overall strength is naturally not stronger than Ross.
Rurik tentatively believed that the enemy was the strong one, then he put a weak brigade in the middle army, and they might retreat after the battle. The formation of a concave formation is conducive to the elites on both sides to encircle.
But what if the enemy is not strong? What's more, why does Ross, who has the advantage of long-range weapons, fight the enemy head-on?
Yevlo's Finnish flag team was originally Suomi, Kewen, deer breeders, Vips and Rudi people, all these generalized Finns were put in, all commanded by the loyal Yevlo, and sent With the young soldiers of the Sixth Banner, standing in the middle of the army~www.novelhall.com~, more than 1,000 of them will use long-range weapons to launch a deadly arrow rain attack on the enemy with a large number of troops according to the prisoners.
Just like that, Rurik was still worried.
In these years, he has experienced several battles of ten thousand people, and commanding an army of 5,000 people, Rurik has the strength in this regard. He relied on flags, horns, drums, and rushing messengers to contact the various units, but once a fight broke out, it was always difficult to contact the subordinates in the fierce battle in the melee.
When the fighter plane is fleeting, if a reserve team is dispatched, the fighter plane will be seized.
One of her beloved wives, Noren, is not known to be a master of music, but her legal identity is the countess of Balmerk, the countess of the Port of Narvik in Norway. Rurik noticed that she was obviously pregnant. It was her fate to be a pregnant woman on the expedition, and Noren was here, but it was a great inspiration for the Fourth Banner of Balmerks.
The captain of the Balmerc flag is a credible Hellafield. His subordinates are elites. They could have been fighting as the vanguard, but now they are serving as the tactical reserve.
The reserve team is not just them. The infantry troops in Rurik's standing army brought 300 people to this battle. They have undergone rigorous training and have excellent food and weapons. This is the most elite army in Russia.
The two armies together have 800 people, and the reserve team with outstanding combat effectiveness will choose the opportunity to enter the battle to determine the world.
The army formed a trapezoidal attack surface, and the width of the army reached nearly 500 meters. This was a wide attack surface, which could be used in field battles and mainly used to break through the poor wooden wall of the fortress.
Accompanied by the deafening horn sound, the Ross Army Army has moved!

And the houses of the brothers are now filled with a large number of fishermen and pawns, making the situation in the fort in chaos.The armed soldiers would never let these outsiders enter their mansion, so the people who took refuge could only sleep in the muddy and extremely tortuous lanes.There were people sitting everywhere, nibbling on the food they brought with them, and more people ate nothing.They escaped so tightly that their belongings and food storage were burnt to the ground in the fire yesterday.Or because of the rain, some people can only drink the rainwater to get "full of water", and because of the sudden cold supermarket, there are many people who suffer from diarrhea.A lot of foul-smelling **** matter appeared in the cramped area. Some people suffered from acute diarrhea and collapsed in pain. Such people are suddenly mobilized soldiers. They are very weak. They still have to wear a wooden shield with their left arm and hold a harpoon with their right hand to meet the next challenge as warriors.Nominally, there are 3,000 Gotalans on the island of Wessingsser in Lake Wettern. If Karl "Mad Bear" can mobilize the city of Jonkoping in the south of the lake, the size of the army can also be expanded.He hoped that the merchants in Jnkping could pull the brothers together because they were all from the same family, but there was no sign of a miracle happening.The messengers sent out to contact Jnkping in the south seem to have always been the same, and trying to contact them now is a fool's errand.Because the ships in the port area and the port have become scorched ruins, as long as you stand on the wooden wall of the fort and look at the port area, there are all black wooden blocks, collapsed houses, and the lake is broken. hull.Thanks to the low walls of the fortress, it provides psychological shelter for all.The purpose of the low wall is not to protect the people, but to protect the guys in the fishing village.Up to now, Carl, who is facing a life-and-death situation, has actually turned from a bone-sucking person to a guardian of the people.Originally, the people of the fishing village only respected the tyrant of the warlord for his king's exploits, and life would go on. If only paying some taxes could exchange for the protection of Karl "Crazy Bear" and his military group, paying tribute was okay. It's only been ten years! This lake area is peaceful, although there are some strange news from the outside world, it has nothing to do with Lake Wettern after all. It was only the brothers who expanded to the north to gnaw on the Swedes' territory, and it was the brothers who took the initiative to launch offensive and sneak attacks.Up to now, the public can only regard Carl as the savior, hoping that he will be responsible for the "ten-year protection fee" and lead the public to drive out the invaders.At least people gathered and the men took up arms. At first glance, this huge army had an undeniable strength in strength. Even though they had experienced hardships, they had never lost in land battles, and they were optimistic about the future.Karl "Crazy Bear" is also optimistic, but not arrogant.In the early morning, he gathered his cronies in the largest building on the island, asking them what they had seen and heard in the streets and alleys of the fort, and what they had seen and heard about the people who were sent to explore the messy port area."You went to the port, what did you see? Is there a barge?" he asked.The explorer's spirit was almost collapsed, and he shouted with a crying voice: "Boss, it's over! Those enemies destroyed all the ships, they were burned and smashed. We... can't escape the island!""Damn it! Can't even make a raft?""We don't even have good wood. If we have to do it, we have torn down the wooden walls to make rafts, but..."What is the hidden words of the explorer? Carl is very clear. The brothers are in urgent need of time now, but what is most needed now is time. Brothers, I'm afraid you don't even have time to escape! Besides, what if you escape? The all-powerful brothers have been pampered for ten years, and they have lost all success in fleeing, and will they work for other strongmen in the future? Can you bear it? No reason!Some people were lamenting and weeping, and more people were so angry that their blood swelled up and their faces seemed to be painted with red dye.Some ruthless attackers were furious: "I still don't know who the attackers are. They came from the north, so they must be Swedes."Someone immediately echoed: "Who else is there besides them. It may also be the legendary Rus...""It's actually Swedes! It can only be like that. Is there a difference between Ross and Sweden? They're both northern guys, and they're afraid they're trying to settle accounts for the past few decades. I heard that our two races had a big fight a long time ago. , it may be our generation facing a decisive battle again.An elderly veteran mentioned stories he heard when he was young, and his remarks also aroused Carl's memories of old stories."That's it!" Karl waved his hand: "Now it's not about the identity of the enemy, they have landed, and they are going to chop off our heads with an axe. Burning down the port is forcing us not to leave. They want to kill the entire island.""If you want to die! Then hit a fish and die!" Someone said viciously.Someone refuted with anger and contempt: "The fish died and the net broke? What are we going to do with them? Just rely on our hundreds of brothers and thousands of **** outside? They have never killed people, only the experience of killing fish and wild boars. Now the defecation is making our fort stink.""Who else can be used besides them? Could those guys be killed by necks? I don't believe that the attackers are in front of them. A group of fishermen will kneel down and beg the attackers to be quick when they behead their heads."They themselves got into a quarrel, and it was Karl who had to shout at this moment."Fools, stop arguing! Our brothers are at the moment of life and death. I have lived for forty years, and many people say that I am no longer old, especially those fishermen. I heard that some people cursed me to die early! Bah! Even if I die, I will drag those guys to die together. I will die as a soldier, how about you...?"The subordinates looked at each other. Although some were hesitant, their hesitant attitude was absolutely not to be displayed.They firmly believed in each other and expressed a unified attitude - fighting the attacker to the last person.The momentum is there, the brothers are absolutely insufficient.This is not difficult for Carl, because there are still a large number of women who need to be mobilized.They are all Vikings, and female Viking warriors are never uncommon. When the question of life and death is in front of them, women must also go to the battlefield.Carl took his brothers out of the mansion, and took his five hundred armored people to show off in the fortress. These people first mobilized their wives, concubines, slave girls, and even older daughters. Their sons were as armed as they could be, even with a sharpened stick to make up the numbers.Karl announced a horrific fact among the crowd: "The enemy is the Swedes! They are coming for revenge! They are going to kill us all, they are going to take this lake! Now all of you must come out with weapons, and we will go out of town and attack them! "A full-scale conscription suddenly started, no matter whether the opponent was willing or not, whether the physical condition was adequate, even those who were suffering from diarrhea were drawn into the army.Men, women, old people, children, anyone who could pick up a stick was shoved into the army.Carl continued to frighten them: "You either follow us to attack! Or die! Those who dare to hesitate, I will help you die first!"Sure enough, Carl did what he said and ordered his subordinates to hang ten people in public.He did not execute people randomly, because these ten people suffered from severe diarrhea, and it was impossible for them to go to war. Then use death to warn all hesitants that they do not want to fight.He is a warlord tyrant, and he has no guilt in carrying out this tyranny. In particular, he wanted the people to watch the tortured people being slowly hanged, so that they could see the horror of death and be forced to fight to survive.In desperation, people also saw that those who usually showed off their might actually armed their wives, concubines and slaves. Obviously, "Crazy Bear" Carl didn't ask them to go to death, but he himself also fought.Carl did give up. He wanted many people to sacrifice their lives for himself, and it was unreasonable to force them to work **** an empty stomach.The warehouse was opened, and it was filled with some reserved salted fish.The armed people were eating salted fish with a variety of flavors. Unexpectedly, everyone ate Carl's gift. What is the cost? Fighting for Carl's own life as well.Just as the fortress of Wiesingerser was actively mobilizing the armed forces, the sun rose quietly.The moisture of the earth was further evaporated. At this moment, the fog was filling and gradually dissipating. The sunlight created a charming curtain and completely covered the raider camp in the northern part of the island.In the trance, the people in the fortress heard the roar in the distance, listen carefully, it was the dull drum sound! Accompanied by the sound of the drums, there is also the sound of a horn with strong penetrating power, which is like the **** of the devil.People were terrified. At this moment, Karl was wearing a bear skin and a bear head. He stood on a high place and raised his long-handled double-edged battle axe with both hands, which symbolized his own strength, and roared: "We have weapons! Kill all the attackers!"The closed wooden door was opened, and the people with various weapons were mostly barefoot, walking on the cold mud ground to the front of the position.They had to gather in a group to mention each other. The permeating fog was not a cover for escape, but full of danger.Most of Carl's elite troops stood on the flanks of the armed people, and he was just preventing these people from taking the opportunity to escape.They walked on the flat and wet grass, and the island was very narrow and deep.The fog is rapidly dissipating, and everyone knows that the fateful moment is not far away. It was the Gotalandans on the island who launched the attack first, and it was their choice whether to succeed or not. As if a sharp arrow had flown out, Karl "Crazy Bear" and his brothers were ready to die in battle.The priests walked in front of the battle and prayed for this army. In principle, they have never been involved in the battle. Now they are forced to enter the battlefield by Karl, otherwise the priests will be killed.On the other side of the battlefield, when the drums and horns sounded loudly, the Rus-Swedish-Finnish coalition, as well as several other allied and servant tribes, all kinds of warriors rose up.Yesterday's heavy rain troubled the army. Due to preparations, the rain trouble was suppressed to a very low level.The soldiers were ready for battle, they put on their own armor, the Rus Duchy troops in the army put on uniforms, and even the Finnish flag team in Yevlo.Kavey led the craftsmen to cooperate with the soldiers to push and pull a large number of carts, on which were placed fifty torsional slingshots with wooden pins to adjust the shooting angle, as well as the projectiles and javelins that were shipped.The 20 bull catapults were carried by the soldiers with their bare hands, and someone was responsible for carrying the stone bullets on their backs.Most of this work is done by the young Sixth Banner.Rurik was only ready for today's decisive battle. He had a huge military advantage. Except for a small number of troops staying in the camp, the army and navy main ships were operating at the same time.He and Arik are cousins, but in the Viking tradition, Aric, as Otto's nephew and adopted son, is Rurik's eldest brother.The two brothers commanded a huge army and also made a clear division of labor.Arik is in charge of commanding the fleet and leading the ruthless people of the first flag team in various senses, and he goes around the port area with the cooperation of the fleet in a "Ma Run" attitude. attack immediately. The soldiers of the first flag team are all Jingui, and their personal combat effectiveness is excellent. Now they are all wearing chain mail reinforced with iron sheets. Most of the soldiers pay for themselves and then purchase weapons and armor in their hometowns to strengthen themselves.They are all eager to make new outstanding feats, and the glorious task of attacking the fortress from the flank and waiting for an opportunity to complete a breakthrough will be handed over to them!With the addition of armed sailors and some auxiliary personnel, there will be 800 people who will attack by water.Rurik then led the main force of 5,000 people to push down to the south.Look! The army lined up in the dissipating fog.Rurik was using his tactic, pincer attack, again.Or it is re-enacting "Canning's Hannibal Tactics".The Ross land army was spread out, and the second and third flag teams belonging to the Principality of Ross were divided into two wings. They belonged to the elite troops and would engage in the most vicious shovel fights in melee combat.More than 2,000 troops from Melalen, Yermalen, Onkras, and various small Swedish tribes gathered together in the center of the army. These people seem to be the Chinese army, and their overall strength is naturally not stronger than Ross.Rurik tentatively believed that the enemy was the strong one, then he put a weak brigade in the middle army, and they might retreat after the battle. The formation of a concave formation is conducive to the elites on both sides to encircle.But what if the enemy is not strong? What's more, why does Ross, who has the advantage of long-range weapons, fight the enemy head-on?Yevlo's Finnish flag team was originally Suomi, Kewen, deer breeders, Vips and Rudi people, all these generalized Finns were put in, all commanded by the loyal Yevlo, and sent With the young soldiers of the Sixth Banner, standing in the middle of the army~www.novelhall.com~, more than 1,000 of them will use long-range weapons to launch a deadly arrow rain attack on the enemy with a large number of troops according to the prisoners.Just like that, Rurik was still worried.In these years, he has experienced several battles of ten thousand people, and commanding an army of 5,000 people, Rurik has the strength in this regard. He relied on flags, horns, drums, and rushing messengers to contact the various units, but once a fight broke out, it was always difficult to contact the subordinates in the fierce battle in the melee.When the fighter plane is fleeting, if a reserve team is dispatched, the fighter plane will be seized.One of her beloved wives, Noren, is not known to be a master of music, but her legal identity is the countess of Balmerk, the countess of the Port of Narvik in Norway. Rurik noticed that she was obviously pregnant. It was her fate to be a pregnant woman on the expedition, and Noren was here, but it was a great inspiration for the Fourth Banner of Balmerks.The captain of the Balmerc flag is a credible Hellafield. His subordinates are elites. They could have been fighting as the vanguard, but now they are serving as the tactical reserve.The reserve team is not just them. The infantry troops in Rurik's standing army brought 300 people to this battle. They have undergone rigorous training and have excellent food and weapons. This is the most elite army in Russia.The two armies together have 800 people, and the reserve team with outstanding combat effectiveness will choose the opportunity to enter the battle to determine the world.The army formed a trapezoidal attack surface, and the width of the army reached nearly 500 meters. This was a wide attack surface, which could be used in field battles and mainly used to break through the poor wooden wall of the fortress.Accompanied by the deafening horn sound, the Ross Army Army has moved!
