How to fight? What are tactics?

The Ludi people have no concept of these profound things. They think that fighting is basically a fight with arms. It is said that they gathered almost all the men who could fight, but they only gathered more than 300 people. watermark advertisement test watermark advertisement test

They wouldn't have the great enthusiasm they have now if they hadn't learned that fighting could bring treasure.

The Rudi people were really mixed with a handful of Karelian exiles, and more than three hundred tribal warriors dressed in deerskins walked out of the village and lifted them into a black mass on the ice.

They were jumping and jumping with great emotion, and likewise, the Rus in the distance gave up their fantasy.

Both the crossbow and torsion slingshot are charged, and the Ross Hunter with the short wooden bow is also ready. Although they were few in number, they were already wearing chain mail under their leather jackets. Everyone's positions were slightly scattered, although they were all holding bows and crossbows, the shields and swords were placed beside them to facilitate immediate armament conversion.

This is a bear hunting team with iron armor. The so-called deal is with strong bears. Bring chain armor to hunt, and there is a high probability of saving lives from the bear's paws in critical moments.

Obviously these weapons are more suitable for small-scale conflicts.

I don't know which guy started, and the Ludi people who were ready to go suddenly acted collectively.

The barbarian's method of warfare is that there is no fighting method, and this time the wolf rushes towards the Ross hunter.

Look at the two hunters with torsion slingshots, they shout one after another: "Shoot now?"

"Wait a minute! Get close and fight." The half-kneeling leader said calmly.

"Attention! We only have one chance."

"That's also put in the fight!"

The so-called put-in by the leader is to put the tribesmen within the reach of the short wooden bow.

"Right now, bow shot!"

Several swords immediately flew to the enemy line, hitting the enemy with a beautiful parabola, but the combat effect was too vague.

The bow-wielding Ross Hunter continued to output, and finally it was his turn to shoot the crossbow!

The javelins fired by the two torsion slingshots were in a row of two people.

Soldiers with crossbows also hit one after another.

The person hit by the arrow fell directly, causing the successor to trample, and also the front row personnel who had escaped the disaster by surprise. The Ludi people saw with their own eyes that their relatives were shot and killed by despicable foreigners. Compared with sudden rage, they were mobilized by fear. Hesitating with fear, the tribal warriors retreated lazily.

The Ludi people still kept sprinting, that is, running on the ice. Even though their simple leather boots had slip resistance, the overall speed was not fast.

Ross Hunter got a bargain, and took advantage of the opportunity to charge the crossbow again. Facing the arrows that the opponent started to shoot, they were not afraid to shoot another round of precision shots.

There can be no third round of shooting!

The hunters threw their crossbows one after another. They saw the face of the enemy clearly, and they looked down on this group of people from the bottom of their hearts.

A group of people with braided hair and dirty faces dare to fight with simple weapons, let's call it brave!

It was the bravery of the Ludi people that made the head of the Ross Hunter give up the plan of tactical retreat, and instead fought with his shield and sword.

"Odin is watching! Organize a shield wall!" The leader gave an order, and the old guys immediately gathered together to form a single-row arc-shaped shield formation.

Of course, the Ludi people who had taken two rounds of shooting were already shaken, and only 30% of the troops who really rushed to the front line were able to fight with the Rus people hand-to-hand. These people are also the bravest. Many other people were actually pulling away the injured, or just retreated.

The zero-distance fight has already begun. This is a battle between a steel sword and a steel axe against a bone spear. One side has a chainmail and a shield body, and the other side has only a deerskin.

The Ross Steel Sword focuses on assassination, the sharp blade easily pierces the enemy's waist and abdomen, and the bloodletting groove immediately causes fatal wounds.

The majority of Ludi warriors had not participated in combat in the past. This was the first time they took up arms to fight another group of humans. Naturally, it was completely different from cooperative beast hunting. They looked high at themselves, and when they realized that a lot of people had died, they threw their weapons and ran away.

Even the Karelian exiles with the strongest fighting voice, these guys are all armed with iron weapons, but it is a complete joke under the armament of the Roth Hunter.

Although the shield wall composed of twenty people is weak, it is not easy for a hundred short tribal people to break through. I saw more than 20 corpses added to the ice, and the rest had given up the fight.

"Hey! The idiots continue to slash with us, I see your backs! A group of cowards! A group of natural slaves!" The head of Ross Hunter yelled in Norse, but the other party couldn't understand it at all, all they had to do was Just run for your life.

The mass panic brought Lu Di's army to collapse. They fled to their own village. The men returned in shock and called on the women to take their children and run away.

For a time, the village was plunged into huge chaos, with the cries of women and children everywhere, and the roars of reindeer who had been violently dragged out of their enclosures.

The elderly female leader tried to stabilize the mood of the people, but unfortunately, even the leader's words would not help.

Could it be that the Ross Hunter Squad really rushed into the village to kill?

If the hunters can fully realize that these tribesmen are really unbearable, they will naturally rush in to search and kill. The battle was so smooth, as smooth as a trap ahead.

The Ross hunter persevered outside the village, watching the development of the situation like a beast staring at him.

The old female leader finally realized that she was not helpless. The Ross messenger, who was under control, was very likely to be the mediator to avoid the war.

The wooden cage containing the little beast was opened.

"What? Are you going to kill me? You are looking for your own death!"

I saw the female leader sitting down directly and begging bitterly in the face of the Ross messenger: "Your hunters are too powerful, we dare not! We dare not fight again, please let them calm down."

"..." The messenger looked puzzled, he eased his emotions a little, and only then did he realize that the hunters and the Ludi people fought a battle, and the Rus people with a small number of people easily won a big victory.

This kind of victory really startled the messenger. There is no doubt that the Rus people are strong, but the Ludi people are too weak.

The messenger had a plan and shouted: "You have to pay for the people who killed us. Those Karelian exiles hoped to destroy you through the hands of the Rus. It is too late to choose to surrender, otherwise the Rus army will arrive. You are all dead."

The female leader was already frightened, and this nod was like a slap in the face.

Up to now, the messenger has put life and death aside, and through the authority of the Rus army, he simply ordered: "Now, only by capturing all the exiled Karelians and executing the war-makers can you quell the anger of the Rus."

"Ah!? As long as I do this, you can withdraw your troops?"

"Yes, but... it depends on your sincerity."

The female leader nodded, she already knew what to do.

She accepted the messenger as the guest of honor, and immediately found a young woman from the tribe to serve him.

She also appealed to the people who were busy fleeing to settle down, to find out the fleeing Karelians, both men and women, and to make amends to the Rus.

The released messenger finally returned to the ice surface. When he saw a piece of corpse and the thick blood on the ice surface, it was conceivable that there was a terrible killing on the opposite side.

He returned nervously and was immediately questioned.

For the living conditions of the Ludi people, the hunters are not surprising, just...

The hunter leader thought that was an excuse: "Is it all because of the provocation of the Karelian remnants? I think the Ludi people chose the war themselves."

The messenger couldn't bear to kill: "Their female leader doesn't want to fight again, and is willing to apologize."

"Apologize? Pay for what?"

"Some venison, and... a woman."

"Women? The brothers really can't touch women outside the fierce bears, but they are all a group of dwarves. Can you guarantee that this is not a conspiracy?"

"This..." The messenger thought about it and asked, "Boss, what do you think?"

"Hey, someone dares to attack us. It turns out that the legendary Ludi people are them. You go again and let their leader come to the ice to negotiate in person. I'm not a fool, so I don't enter the village."

The messenger nodded, even if the leader of Lu Di showed sincerity, what if they suddenly turned against the water?

The messenger made another trip and ordered the female leader to make amends to the hunter with all the captured Karelian exiles.

An old woman holding a wooden staff is the female leader. She finally saw the legendary Rus people. Those legends are basically true, and they are really tall beings.

And she saw that everyone in Ross was wearing bear skins. They killed a lot of bears. The hideous bear heads were immediately displayed, and the sleds were covered with bear skins.

This is a small bear hunt team, if there are more...

The clansmen who fell on the ground were distressing, but Ross Hunter was unscathed.

An old woman declares her surrender, but is surrender a matter of words?

Facing a group of Karelians, the Fierce Bears immediately moved to kill.

The leader ordered in Norse language: "Leave the young woman, and others will kill. The method must be neat and tidy, and show the Ludi people how powerful we are."

A large number of Ludi people watched from a distance, and then they saw the Rus people in bear skins performing murder!

The terrifying scene caused many people to faint directly, and the female leader on the front line really saw why the heads were rolling.

Those exiles who fought the main battle certainly had a reason for revenge, but now they're all dead.

The female leader, who was slumped on the ice, asked tremblingly, "In this way, you can let us go?"

"Don't be stupid!" The head of the bear hunting team was arrogant: "You have been conquered by Ross! Give me fifty women! Give me two hundred deer! Especially you, follow us to New Roseburg, you We must surrender to our prince!"

"Ah!" The female leader was taken aback, "Didn't you agree that you don't need a woman?"

The messenger did not translate this sentence honestly, but explained it casually: "This is a one-time thing, you hand over the woman this time, and it will be waived in the future."

"However, our whole family can't produce so many women."

The female leader's explanation makes sense, but the hunters take it as one of the proofs of non-cooperation.

The chief bear hunter played with his sword, and the female chief did not understand the Norse language and knew the anger of the conqueror.

The bear hunting team simply set up camp on the ice surface, and all the dead bodies were captured by the Ludi people.

That night, the bear hunting team enjoyed the service of captured Karelian women in the camp. According to the plan of the leader, these women would be placed in the fortress of the bear sacrifice town and have been slaves.

As for the women who were handed over by the Ludi people, they were also sold directly to the prince Rurik as slaves. According to his idea, a woman should be able to sell a pound of silver coin, provided that she is pure, which is more expensive than selling bear skins. Make money and be safe.

The bear hunting team gave the Ludi people only one night to prepare. Once the time expired, the bear hunting team would leave, but the Ross army would come next time.

The clans had no choice but to hand over the young girls reluctantly. A clan of more than a thousand people took out almost half of the girls in the clan to appease the Rus people.

The female leader was even more helpless. She decided to apologize to the leader of the Rus in person, hoping that her obedience would save the entire tribe.

The next morning, when the sun rose, the female leader went in person, and fifty more weeping girls went to the ice camp of the Rus.

The girls were frightened as soon as they arrived, because those Russ were giants at all. There were also several Karelian women who were clearly unclothed, wrapped in leather, and gnawed at the jerky with dull eyes, as if they were "meat-eating corpses."

All the Ludi people gathered at the frozen lake outside the village. They watched as part of their deer gave away to the Rus people and those tribal women who didn't know the future.

They buried the dead overnight, and the Ludi people, who were hit hard again, had their spines broken by a mere 20 Ross hunters.

The clan leader is already dead as the female leader, and they are electing a new leader. As for the future, is it really under the control of the Rus? Everything is unknown.

But it is not advisable to continue to run away!

To the east and south are the western control areas and the Karelian remnants of the Perm people, who are all wary of the Rudi people trying to snatch their living space.

To the west is the Great Lake, and on the other side of the lake is the Rus-controlled area.

or north? That is even more inadvisable, the bear hunters rushed down from the northern stronghold!

The Ludi people have nowhere to escape! The clan leaders are all praying, hoping that the female leader can exchange for the kindness of the leader of Ross, just as the messenger described.

There was no need to hunt bears anymore, so the bear hunting team ordered the Ludi people to take out a batch of sleds and connect them to Ross sleds with cables.

Now there is no need to tie the dwarf-like girl Lu Di with ropes, and even the old lady, the female leader of the "blame", is completely free.

They were authorized to wrap the bear skins that had been peeled off in the opposite direction, and use animal hair to keep them warm. This kind of dress seemed too scary.

The reindeer sleigh and the free reindeer herd all the way north, and the whole team lives by roasting and eating frozen bear meat.

They successfully arrived at the town of bear sacrifice, and this place the female chief knew - the lakeside sacrifice center of the Karelian people.

"Where did those Karelians go?" she asked.

The bear hunters replied that they were all killed.

Bear Ritual was revived in another way, with a group of Rus, other Viking settlers, and a group of Suomis.

The Suomi people who had a feud with Karelia stood here, and they also began to breed reindeer. The town of Bear Festival has become a permanent hunting, grazing, and fishing base for more than 300 people.

For the first time, the intrepid Ludi people saw a Viking longship being pushed ashore, and saw a large number of frozen fish lying on the ice.

At the same time, the female leader realized that the bear hunters who attacked the village were really ordinary in the Rusian society. There are forts here, there are men and women, and they are almost all hunters. She knows the basic situation of the Suomi, the legend is true, she saw the short Suomi talking and laughing with the blond Rus!

The discovery of the Ludi village by the bear hunters immediately caused a sensation. The returning people were afraid that other brothers would form a group to raise the village, so they hurriedly convened a Nordic meeting, and announced at the indoor meeting that the Ludi people had surrendered to the prince and now attacked without authorization. Is disobedience to the monarch.

From this warning, the Rus people who were eager to try gave up.

When the female leader Lu Di learned of the situation, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh. She was at least fortunate that she surrendered at the critical moment, otherwise, Lauros would not be the main force to cross the ice lake to cut people, and the guy next to this fortress would be enough to destroy Lu Di.

After a short rest in the town of Bear Festival, they walked a large circle counterclockwise along the shoreline of the lake to reach Vipsarawa, and rested again in the village of Vips.

The female leader had met the old female leader of the Veps, and the two old sisters explained the situation to each other, which completely strengthened the attitude of leader Lu Di to surrender. She saw that the Vips raised the Rus flag, which was equivalent to saying that they had become Rus.

Joining Rus is not a slave. To be loyal to the prince of Rus is a Russ. In the future, sending people to participate in the war is just a passing game. After the war, you have the right to divide the spoils, and you can buy salt and iron.

She also knew that the huge population of Suomis surrendered to their clans, and in the huge Rus Principality, all Suomis could move freely, and there were also a large number of Suomis in the Rus army. Look at the Veps men, who are fully equipped with iron weapons and have better bows and arrows.

It is clear that the Vips have the smallest population, but their combat power has become stronger.

More than that? The female leader noticed that a large number of babies appeared in this small tribe. This is very abnormal. Their children will not die in large numbers?

Is this what the messenger is talking about prosper by surrendering to Rus?

The Rudi people want to enjoy this prosperity too!
