The leader of the enemy must be killed. It turned out that Otto meant that the blood eagle and other cruel punishments were too cruel. He ate the last bit of food for that person, and then directly chopped off his head to end everything cleanly.

Since that person was a prince and a top noble of the enemy was captured, instead of directly beheading him, it would be better to find a way to replace it with greater interests. Anyway, the man's hands were cut off, and Liang Qi had no strength to resist.

The Ross warrior had wiped the forest axe, and Arik stopped it just as he was about to slash. He came back panting, and was relieved to report that his subordinates didn't do anything.

"It's too dangerous!" Otto also let out a sigh of relief, and then looked at Grund: "Do you know why I spared that man's life?"

"Why? Oh, Duke Ross's decision is certainly not something that an ordinary person like me can think of."

Rurik really understood his father's suggestion, so he smiled and said: "Grund, you have said that Visby is very rich, and that businessman named Haken is also very rich. Will that guy save himself? What about his son? Will he take out a sum of money to redeem it?"

Otto's eyes widened suddenly, because that was not what he meant at all, and he had no intention of demanding a ransom at all. Now that Rurik has mentioned such a thing, what new plans does the child have? Obviously, the child thought a lot of things.

Seeing the urging look from his father, Rurik intentionally said one or two, especially his plans for the entire war, including the decisive battle.

When Rurik learned that the half-beaten Siegfast was actually a prince, he had the idea of ​​demanding a ransom.

Arik grabbed the words and said: "How can there be so much trouble, we won the decisive battle, we robbed Visby, all the money is us. Ransom? Is it necessary?"

"Your cousin is right. Why do we need to do this? However, asking for ransom is also a means of testing the enemy. I... actually think so." same.

Why ask for ransom, win the decisive battle and enter Visby to grab it, and finally burn down the largest settlement of the Gotlanders, what kind of glory is this? ! With this honor, the dead and living Ross will surely meet again in Valhalla after the war.

"That can't be done! I..." Rurik stood up suddenly, and then said shockingly: "You all think that our army must rob Visby?!"

Otto was taken aback: "What do you mean? You mean not to loot?"

"dad,

And the brothers who are sitting, what is our purpose? "

"Of course, it is to hack and kill you, to obtain their wealth, and to turn all their wives and daughters into our women." Arik's calm words all revealed ferocious fangs, and Otto also bluntly expressed his appreciation for the great This "full score answer" of the nephew.

Rurik was not surprised: "Indeed. I'll add that we, the Rus army, must do all this at the least cost."

"Oh? What do you want to do?" Otto asked hastily.

"I am the military commander. In the decisive battle in the future, I will order the soldiers to kill the enemy as much as possible and avoid their escape. Without the main fighting force, the Visbys cannot organize new resistance forces. Maybe at this time our army will enter It's the most appropriate, and it's true, but..." Rurik deliberately sold his words and paused: "The soldiers spontaneously looted, will they take the initiative to take out the stolen property?"

"Why take it out? They robbed it themselves, so they should keep it as their own." Otto added: "This is our rule, the new rule is to grab the cash box and find the warehouse, and that's mine. "

"It belongs to the Duke of Ross." Rurik also added, "The Duke of Ross also belongs to me. So I have to find a way to drain the wealth of the Gotland people, and those fine gold and silver must be controlled by myself, and also It must be redistributed by me to the warriors.

Besides, let the soldiers loot spontaneously, and everyone will be scattered. The root of our victory is not only God's blessing, but also my command! The Ross army is the most powerful when it is united as a whole. If the individual soldiers are scattered, they will be defeated by the enemy individually.

Individual warriors are met with frantic resistance from the remaining inhabitants of Visby, and many will die.

In this way, as Duke of Ross, I can't get a lot of wealth and lose a lot of brothers, which is a huge failure. "

Rurik took a bite of his own Duke of Ross, and others sounded a little strange, but Otto himself didn't care. Because many years ago he had sworn in the chief priest's house that he would live as a servant of the "Son of God" for the rest of his life. "Son of God" is Rurik.

Rurik's explanation is very realistic. After thinking about it calmly, the highest nobles of Ross represented by the Duke of Ross really need this method to extract the most benefits. Because times have indeed changed. In the past, a war chief led hundreds of people to loot, and everyone took out the spoils of war, and it was easy to complete the distribution after internal negotiations.

Now it is an army of 3,000 people. In order not to cause unpleasantness in the future, then don't let the brothers loot freely!

"When we've won the decisive battle, we'll send someone to persuade the Visbys to surrender. I'll make them pay huge war reparations. Like two thousand pounds of silver, or four thousand? And sheepskin, cheese. They have All the money and supplies from the army must be handed over. That’s right! And their women, some of them must be handed over. These things will be handed over to me in exchange for a truce.”

Listen, Otto gasped. Looking at his son's attitude is so firm, it can be seen that he is serious. "Rurik, are you... going to cut the last hair off the sheep?"

Rurik pouted: "Otherwise? They have to spend so much money to buy peace, otherwise we'll just rob their Visby directly according to the original plan. Oh yes, and their ships, all of the same quality. A good ship must be a bargaining chip to buy peace. I hope there will not be more ships trying to escape at sea. Gould's fleet will leave Tombstone Island tomorrow as planned, and in three days at the latest, the Avrora will By the time the ships enter the sea off Visby, all who try to escape will be mercilessly sunk!"

Otto let out a long sigh, feeling that his son's means of dictation were so vicious! He will do it! Just like the Gotland patrol boat encountered on the return journey from the south, this kid invented the "seesaw" and executed captives in this novel way to sacrifice to the sea god.

Otto thought of something again, hesitating in his heart: "That guy named Siegfast, he buried our warriors according to the customs of the Gotland, this kind of person can give a clean behead, or spare He lost his life. Now you want to exchange this man for ransom and put him back, will he command a new army to fight back? Even if the man's hands are cut off, it takes brains to command the army."

"This person is still a threat, and he really can't stay." Arik said ruthlessly, obviously he didn't pay attention to the ransom demand.

The power of life and death for a prisoner is in the hands of the victor, and in his heart Grund wants his old gold master Siegfast to die. He has his own little Jiujiu. The so-called person was really replaced, and it was really bad for his reputation to promote things such as "Danish mercenary backstab" in Visby.

Grund was also dissatisfied with Duke Ross's statement, which specifically stated: "My lord, Siegfast, did not order the burial of the bodies of your war dead."

"What did you say?" Otto consciously heard something very absurd.

Grund deliberately amplified his voice, he needed the top nobles of the Rus people present to know what the top nobles of the Gotland people they valued were like.

"Siegfast is arrogant, just as you cut his tendons, this guy is in this area, treating your wounded soldiers the same way. Siegfast threatens to kill the Rus slowly , he did too. He was so happy watching the Ross warriors bleed, and I can't stand those things. I stabbed your wounded and ended their pain, and Siegfast was furious about it."

Having said this, Otto and the others were already trembling with shock.

Rurik felt that this was a bit strange, and he looked at Grund suspiciously, speculating that this man was deliberately belittling his old master. Obviously, this man has something to say.

"Siegfast will smash all the corpses of Ruth warriors into the wilderness. It's me! Take your brothers to gather your dead bodies, and pile up a mound with them. Therefore, the burial of the Ruth warriors is different from the others. "

"You! You mean, you buried those warriors?!" Otto gasped in rage, and the momentum made Grund almost lie down. micro fiction

Arik stood up angrily, suddenly pulled out his steel sword and roared, "Turn that idiot into a blood eagle! I'll go now!"

He turned to leave, but was grabbed by Harrodsen, who got Otto's eyes.

"Boy, you have to calm down!"

"Don't call me a boy! Harrodsen, I'm a warrior, and I'm going to put this wicked man to death for my brothers."

Contrary to Arik's rage, Rurik remained calm. Ottoburn is also furious, but fortunately, fifty years of life experience has tempered him enough to be stable.

Rurik looked at Grund deliberately: "Dan, we have spared your life, this is an oath to Odin. You don't have to report these hours to advertise your achievements, and you can't blame your old master. Dirty water."

This remark was actually unexpected by Grund. He thought that the Russ would be all angry, but the Rurik in front of him was really different.

Grund hurriedly slapped his chest and swore: "I'm telling the truth, I dare to have a fallacy and be struck to death by thunder. That's what we've been through, that Siegfast, he's not a warrior, just a conceit. The merchant. He has no respect for the warrior, let alone the dead. Now Odin has sent his warriors to fight the madman."

The words that followed were obviously really flattering, and looking at the angry emotions of his father and brother, Rurik thought for a moment, if this news spreads to the whole army, what kind of ransom would be demanded? Angry warriors would immediately surround the captive, and then devour him one by one without even leaving a bone.

Rurik closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and in his mind he revised the ransom demand plan he envisioned.

He slowly opened his eyes and issued orders as a military commander: "We must get the ransom!"

Arik sat on the ground with his right arm on the hilt of the sword, and shook his head with teeth bared: "I'd rather make him a blood eagle. Hey, I just stopped the execution, why am I running so fast, it's better to watch the brothers chop the man's head."

"There is absolutely no need for this, but this man must die. Arik, listen to my plan now..."

During this very night, Rurik ordered Grund to rest, in fact, to put him away.

Soon the flag captains of each flag team, as well as some important personnel, were called to this bonfire.

Rurik, the military commander, decided on the so-called decisive battle site - Bridge Village.

The former bridge village has been turned into a scorched earth, but the local area has been developed on a large scale. A large number of forests have been cut down, weeds have grown wildly suitable for sheep, and oats have been planted in some areas.

There is an open space that can accommodate tens of thousands of people for a decisive battle, so the Rus people will not have to cross the mound and attack in front of the city of Visby.

Rurik knew the strength of the Rus army best, and even some visible disadvantages.

Today's Rus army has become an army that emphasizes land power. Three thousand soldiers gathered together and spoke three languages. All of this challenged the commander's organizational ability and the soldiers' execution ability.

What if the entire army crossed the hills and formed a decisive battle? Then the team will inevitably become procrastination when going over the mountain. At that time, the army will be full of flaws. If it is attacked by the enemy, it will be troublesome.

The most important thing is that the Ross army is trained to fight on the ground. Only in a large enough open area can the strength of the Ross army be exerted. At that time, the spear formation, sword and shield hand flanking, bowman and torsion slingshot shooting, and even the fighting of heavy armored warriors, must play the best effect in the open space.

Many people think that the army quickly wiped out five hundred enemies, why should the decisive battle in the future follow the rules. The warriors climbed the mounds like wolves and engulfed Visby like a mudslide.

Rurik was too lazy to preach to those who thought that way, it was meaningless.

"We don't have to wear our feet and go over the mounds to fight them. We're here in formation, drinking the sweet stream, and waiting for the enemy who crosses the mound. The enemy is tired, we are full of energy, and the advantage is mine!"

Rurik has been expounding his idea of ​​waiting for work, Otto consciously understands a lot, he still has some questions: "How do you judge that the enemy will definitely fight us over the mountain? Why take the initiative?"

Rurik looked into his father's eyes: "It's like a sword hanging over his head, although the sword didn't fall down, everyone knows that it's an assassination and bloodshed when it falls, and of course we have to find a way to get it away. That's the way the Visbys are. We're here, the army is resting, and the enemy feels the pressure. As for coaxing them over the mountain to fight us, I have enough bait."

"Bait? Could it still be the Siegfast?" Otto asked.

"It's him. Besides, I should release some prisoners."

"Captive?" Arik, who was still angry, asked: "Do we still have prisoners? Those prisoners have all been brought back."

"Yes, there are still three hundred men who were captured in Baisha Harbor. It seems that no one can be sure that this group of renegades will really fight for us, and maybe they will turn against us when they charge. These people can't be trusted. , then let them go!"

"Huh?" Arik continued to question: "If you don't worry, they will give it to me, and I will let the brothers cut it."

"No, these people are all useful. I can gather those people and give them a chance to escape back to Visby. Those who are the most determined are just not going to really surrender. Let them go back to Visby and spread our Ross. The news of the army, and the conditions for the redemption of Siegfast. I want their great king to redeem his leader himself, and..."

Suddenly, Rurik thought of a new grand strategy.

He stood up abruptly, "We brought a group of crossbowmen. We pretended to release the captives and shot them in person. We had to send many crossbowmen, so that we might even kill their king directly. In my opinion, Victoria The great king of the Spy's is dead, and they're in irreparable chaos."

"Cut down their king directly? I should do this job." Arik felt that he was doing his part in this job.

Having said that, Rurik shook his head: "It is best if the assassination can be completed, it depends on whether our arrows are lucky or not. I can at least guarantee that the brothers can shoot that Siegfast, whether they are the king or not. It's not important to die with an arrow, of course the guy is best shot. Maybe it's also great that the king doesn't die. What would the great king of Gotland do when he saw his prince die in front of him?!"

Arik smiled, his split eyes showing arrogance: "He will take revenge! He will be paid like crazy. I can't see, brother, when did you become so fierce."

"Probably the battle on the glaciers in the east, I've seen it through! That's how war is, I want to induce the enemy to become reckless avengers, so that they will be killed by our army as I imagined. Tomorrow morning, We release some captives and take a group of brothers to camp on the mound. By the way, that Siegfast can't die yet."

That's how Rurik finally explained his strategy, and by the end, Otto had goosebumps all over his body. He felt that his son had turned into a cold villain, and it was fair to say that this was the trick that angered a father the most.

An old face staring at the stars, how Otto wished the Valkyrie could manifest. He hopes that green streamers will appear in the sky, because this area will soon become full of corpses, and the souls of death warriors need to be taken away by the Valkyrie, who is staring at the battle.

He also imagined that Rurik deliberately used his correct command, and the Russ army could win a complete victory with minimal losses.
