, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!
If tonight is a simple celebration banquet, Rurik only needs to worry that all the generals of the regular army of the Principality of Russ will come to have a barbecue and spirits feast.
Usky and Toli, the two local estate owners were fortunate enough to have the dinner because they provided Rurik with a list-a cleansing list.
There are twenty manor houses living on the lake. Vadim, the leader of Pine Needle Manor, has set off a great rebellion. He may have been buried or escaped without a trace. Rick has not paid much attention to his life and death. What he cares about is the attitude of the other seventeen manors to the rebellion. Five of the seventeen manors directly participated in the rebellion. What about the remaining twelve? I'm afraid they just didn't have time to send troops!
Usky and Toli, at this moment, they have no regard for other manor owners. In order to flatter the Duke of Rose, they selected five of the seventeen main manors. In fact, it was the five who sent soldiers to fight. It is learned that when Vadim declared war on Ross, the five estates were particularly enthusiastic about mobilization for war. As for other people, most of them are hesitant, not as if they feel that this is death, and grasping the actual escape will achieve the glory of victory today.
They proposed their names, and Rurik personally found a wooden board with a knife to engrave the names of these killers in Roman letters.
As a monarch, Rurik even wanted to cleanse all the local nobles around the lake, leaving only a large number of people for management. After all, even if they choose to resist, they still have to have a boss with charisma.
Purging the local nobles and replacing them with their own cronies, such a technique could not be normal in ancient times.
However, if you put yourself in the place and think about it, how can you manage the huge lakeside fields? The locals have formed a rather stable agricultural ecological structure, forming a manor, which really kills the family of the manor owner, I am afraid that subsequent tax collection will become a big problem. For the time being, these local nobles still have improper use value abolished.
It is still a smart plan to produce the first evil and liquidate the embarrassed ones.
Lurik deliberately stayed in the occupied Pine Needle Manor and waited. During this waiting period, the huge manor was ushered in a vigorous demolition operation.
Pine Needle Manor will no longer exist! This is the harshest punishment for the rebels.
No, the many wooden beams of the house were torn down, and the astonishing number of beams became a very special and important trophy, which was divided up by the manor of the three iron "Conglong".
The calf and the angler’s manor all have their homes on the opposite side of the big lake. If they don’t use the Ross boats, they really can’t bring the spoils back to their home quickly. Simply, they began to build brand new wooden houses on the spot, each guarding the 5% of the farmland trophies they had just allocated.
In the White Tree Manor, the bare-armed men have the right to borrow the Ross ship directly to transport the wood back home.
They had to work hard to do this because Master Rurik ordered the immediate implementation of the policy-basically in accordance with the style of Shilla Fort, a circular wall with a tower was built outside the White Tree Manor.
The White Tree Manor will also receive a brand new name, and the so-called fuzzy concept of Novgorod has been completely determined.
The core of the city lies on the Volkhov River, and the huge Ilmen Lake is not far to the south.
This is true of Novgorod, and her city's location is also very much in line with the historical process.
Loot wooden beams can make the construction of walls and towers faster. Novgorod will be used as a residential house and a military camp. It will definitely expand and become the political, economic and military center of this lake area. More importantly, it will become a land of riches and rice in the realistic sense of the Duchy of Russ.
No, the Ross conquerors have been cruising on the lake with traditional long boats, the fishing ropes were dropped, and the people on the boats started fishing.
Even the sail destroyers, they were ordered to bring large trawl nets made of twine into the lake, wandering in boats, and wantonly plundering local European perch, burbot, and siniperca. The general water depth of Lake Ilmen is only ten meters, and the bottom of the lake is quite flat with mud, and there is almost no decayed wood. Under such hydrological conditions, although it is impossible for Ross' ships to have any sonar equipment, their trawl nets seem to sweep the water aimlessly, which is actually a kind of sweeping fish.
The ship started fishing in the morning. In the afternoon, a group of people smiling like big fools drove the boat towards the shore of the lake. The number of nets in the net bag reflected the silver-white luster of the fish. .
The Slavs on the shore never thought that the Great Lake would have such a rich output! In fact, almost none of the Slavs who served in the Duchy of Ross had seen trawl fishing. This technique was normalized in Northern Europe. They were rare and enviable. They had their own ethnic group who had been guarding the Great Lakes for hundreds of years. Do you want outsiders to teach?
The ruins of Pine Needle Manor are disappearing as quickly as the naked eye can see. The roofs of those houses whose properties were evacuated have been demolished, and a large amount of thatch and broken wood have a destination for fuel.
The Ross army grilled the fish caught, and then cooked the salty oatmeal in this clay pot, life is really good.
Look at the wheat fields beside the lake again! This year, all the farmland left by Pine Needle Manor is owned by the Duchy of Ross. Even though Lord Rurik claims that the wheat produced belongs to the duchy (actually equivalent to his property), the general public can still use money at the old price in the severe winter. Buy it.
It was Duke Rurik who brought the victory to everyone. There must be wise and profound meaning in how he arranges. Mortals should not question the decision of the Son of God, and everyone is so self-disciplined to ignore it, but is busy enjoying and even exchanging trophies with their companions.
Will the army stay here for a long time? Is the crusade to conquer the Karelians finally about to begin?
Presumably, Lord Duke hosted all the manor owners in the lakeside area, and a new expedition began.
If you want to entertain a group of "priest guests", Rurik is here to set up an open-air meeting place.
Feast? Pooh! Obviously it was a feast for the grand sect, but Rurik would never be a hesitant overlord of Chu.
The venue he chose was the largest courtyard in the mansion of Borudne, the old leader of Pine Needle Manor. This place had been quickly cleaned up, and blood was not visible on the dry ground, as if there had been no killings here.
It was here that Otto was assassinated and escaped.
Borudne himself was assassinated here by his own son Vadim.
Since this is bad luck, let the five insurgents die together!
There were a hundred swordsmen and axemen lying in ambush outside the wooden wall, as long as they heard the sound of the horn, they would all kill them.
The plan is being carried out carefully. Those manor owners who are completely ignorant of the situation of the Hongmen Banquet can only take very few entourages due to the pressure of reality, rowing a canoe to the defeated Pine Needle Manor.
Wouldn't the Ross people really kill the huge manor without leaving any people or animals, as the messenger said?
Many manor owners have illusions, but when they see the Varyag ships wandering around on the lake, their illusions collapsed. Then when they landed, a ridiculous question appeared in front of them—what about the huge Pine Needle Manor?
A large number of buildings have been demolished, and there are wandering Varangas everywhere.
All the manor owners who landed were rigorously searched by heavy-armored Ross soldiers armed to their teeth, and all the meat-cutting knives were confiscated. The soldiers only allowed the manor himself to be seen, and the entourage was driven to a wooden house that had not been demolished and waited.
The owners of the manor seemed to have contacted each other, and they all arrived at Pine Needle Manor by boat around noon on the last day of the appointment. When all their personnel arrived, it was almost evening.
This group of manor owners were already unarmed, and they were driven to a house collectively, just like a flock of sheep locked in a sheepfold. Some people are complaining, some are yelling. The Roth warrior who bared his teeth came over, said swearing Noss, and fiddled with the axe in his hand, forcing them to shut up with a hideous expression.
Arik walked into the temporary residence of Rurik and Otto happily, the dozer awakened by the sound of footsteps.
"Are they finally here?" Rurik, who was taking a nap at Svetlana, asked, opening his wistful eyes.
"It just so happens that I just explained this to you. Brother, it's time for the knife to see blood."
"Okay! Let them all see the fate of the traitor!"
The son became a fierce man, and Otto was most satisfied with Rurik like this. He stood up and said nothing, determined to take a good look at his son's methods with these aging eyes.
Duke Rurik of Ross with his wife Svetlana, the old Duke Otto, Duchess of Ostara Carlotta, Captain Arik of the First Banner, Captain Helafide of the Third Banner, and Captain Medveit of the Slav Banner , Master of Archery Frazer.
The calf, the angler, and the white tree, the owner of the three estates.
And even the young and close comrades of Liurik.
This group of nobles all lived in this open-air feast. There was a leather cushion on the flat ground, and there was nothing wrong with sitting on the ground. As for the feast of the banquet, it is a selected calf. At this moment, the skinned, boneless and cleaned calf is roasting on the fire, and it will take some time for it to be fully cooked.
Rurik sat in the most noble place, and the others waited on either side of the seat. Some of the leather cushions in the distance were empty, and there was about to be filled with all the seventeen manors that arrived later.
People remain vigilant and sit quietly, just because in a short while, a big show will be staged first here.
In this banquet hall, there are more than fifty guards and armed guards. They are standing against a wooden wall holding a halberd. A hundred swordsmen and axe are separated from them by a wooden wall. Glend was a real toolman. His steel sword was like a monster who wanted to drink blood. He listened to the small voices with both ears. As soon as Rurik's command came, a hundred brothers rushed to kill him.
No, Rurik clapped his hands: "Come here! Invite all the guests in!"
Finally, the seventeen local manor owners who were locked up in the increasingly dimly lit house finally left the place of restraint. They all wore self-proclaimed noble floral gowns and furs. Although there was a little bit of heat, they were all in order to show their identity. Continue to wear it.
Before they entered the meeting place, they had to walk a single way under the crowd of thousands of Varanga fighters. They endured their fear and finally entered the meeting place, sitting on leather cushions according to the requirements of the Ross people.
For an instant, the scene fell into a weird silence.
Rurik looked at them first. Five of them will be executed. Which five lucky manor owners are they?
Might as well, you can talk to them first.
Rurik stood up, holding his rapidly changing voice and said: "Manor owners, Vadim the insurgent is dead. I killed all the people in Pine Needle Manor. Soon, this manor will be demolished. , The house turned into farmland, as if Pine Needle Manor never existed."
Hearing these words, all the newly-visited manor owners twisted their faces and trembled. This young boy is really the new leader of the Ross people? The eyebrows really resembled the old Otto sitting next to him, but the boy's vicious methods were indeed a hundred times better than his father's, and he actually explained this terrible killing fact in the calmest words.
Seeing the faces of these people were all wrong, Rurik deliberately said: "I heard that many of you support the rebellion. The reason why I can't see you in the war is simply because you are too slow. "
This remark had already brought obvious killing intent, and some wise men hurriedly stood up: "My lord! We dare not rebel. It is the **** father-slayer Vadim. He said we would kill all of us if we did not! With a population of only a thousand people, it is easy to be killed by them. My lord! How dare we rebel against the great Ross?"
"Really? What's your name."
"Drevislav Sokoslavich, the owner of Green Grass Creek Farm."
This name, Rurik remembered that it appeared on the list, and he would not have heard it wrong. Looking back at this person's remarks in this way, isn't it a sophistry throughout the article.
He asked him to sit down and heard what other people had said, even if there was a grievance, let him speak out now.
This order, let's see that all the seventeen people talked about all claiming to be under the coercion of Vadim, but they rushed to say that they had no objection.
"Be quiet! There are traitors among you!"
After that, Rurik took out the wooden plank and winked at a guard with a horn on his chest.
The horns blew! There was a commotion beyond the wooden wall, and Grund rushed in with a hundred swordsmen. At this moment, Arik, Helafide and others also drew their swords, their eyes serious and murderous.
All the swordsmen who broke in were ordered to keep quiet, but Rurik continued his words.
Rurik ordered the frightened 17 people to report their names one by one, and as long as they matched the lives engraved on their wooden boards, he ordered his subordinates to take them aside.
As a result, five manor owners who clearly participated in the rebellion were arrested. The five people were immediately **** with ropes, like a hairy crab, and then pressed on the ground so that they could only struggle for a limited time, and they looked like fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
In this situation, the other twelve manor owners were dumbfounded. They wanted to avoid them, but they were trapped inside the wall by the Ross soldiers who formed the shield wall.
Rurik continued to roar in Slavic language: "You five participated in the rebellion. You are traitors to the great principality. The evidence for the rebellion is solid. Today is your death date! Come, execute!"
Who could have expected that going to a banquet was to die? None of the seventeen people had such a psychological estimate, and they all felt that they could show their sincerity by coming in person.
Even if that Dreyvislav claimed to be intimidated and didn't want to be an enemy of Ross at all, his head of Guizhou was chopped off by a warrior with a large axe, and his entire head was raised in public.
All five were beheaded, and the soldiers held Qian's head high to show the fate of the rebels.
The twelve people shuddered at the sight, and more than one of them was frightened into diapers. They all knelt down without being ugly, and begged Duke Ross to spare their lives.
"Spare? Yes! Have you seen the fate of the rebels?"
They said yes one after another.
"Actually, I know that if you move faster, you will join the team against our Russian army. Mine is fair. No one who was killed has been investigated and sent troops to the war. You people did not do this. I like the fact that you did not participate in the rebellion, and you did your wise work to avoid death. You have also seen that this is how the rebels end up. I hope you will do it yourself, otherwise you will become ruins like Pine Needle Manor!
They don't know what to say, and some people even fainted because of extreme panic and sudden relaxation.
This is a great feast, when the leader of the traitor to the death is executed, the blood of the traitor is sprinkled on the banquet hall, it can be regarded as a warning to all the local Slavic nobles, or to the entire Rus Principality.
The fate of the rebels is to be beheaded in public! This is very consistent with the customary law of the Rus people for hundreds of years, and it is also understandable and acceptable by the local Slavs.
The corpse was pulled away, and the beheaded heads were also thrown out. The blood-stained land was temporarily sprinkled with some ashes and covered with soil. After a while, the whole beef roasted with hard vegetables was placed on a trolley and pushed into the banquet scene.
At this time, Rurik issued another order, and all the swordsmen and axemen on the scene retreated, and even the fifty guards with halberds were all gone.
Otto witnessed the clean execution of the rebels by his son Rülik. He was so happy that he stood up and announced the beginning of the banquet. A group of people shared the roasted calf...
The confiscated dagger Ross was returned, and the twelve manor owners who were frightened and looked at the roast beef in the glass plate, ignoring the preciousness of the glass plate.
They didn't dare to eat it for a long time, and their minds were full of the killings just now. Look at the Ross people who ate beef, they are simply monsters! They happen to be the well-deserved masters of this lake area.
