Chapter 756： The Rose Royal Pirates and the Ragnar Viking Army and the East Franco...

, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!

A big ship is super strong, and ten torsion slingshots are installed on both sides of the ship, and the bow is also equipped with a new bronze collision angle.

The main force of the projectile of the slingshot is the cone-shaped cast iron projectile. The projectiles are divided into one pound and half pound. One hundred pieces are packed into a box, and fifty boxes are directly packed in the cabin! It is the most important combat weapon, so it has reached the pinnacle of the Russian Navy in its armed reserves.

There are also javelins and harpoons that can be used as short spears as auxiliary weapons, and they are also sharp weapons for killing beluga whales, minke whales, and even seal hunting.

This is the "Royal Pirate Ship" Salmon Chief of the Principality of Ross. The explorer Spuyut led a professional pirate team on the order of the Prince to launch special revenge against the Danish forces.

There is an all-out war, at least not now. Even the situation became more complicated. The internal economy forced the Principality to temporarily adjust its expansionary national policy to internal construction.

Retaliation against the Danes is still to be done, and Spuyut has historically become the first person to retaliate.

The wharf was full of people, and more than two thousand people had just finished their busy spring farming work and came to the wharf to watch the pirate ship leaving the port.

People with discerning eyes are talking about it. The so-called prince paid a huge amount of money. This ship is more fierce than the armament of the Principality’s flagship Aphrola.

The ship was fixed by multiple cables and stabilized on the turbulent Neva River. On the top of the mast, a peculiar flag was hunting and hunting in the south wind.

It was a flag with a white background, and the black pattern was terrifying and domineering.

The black cloth strips are stitched together to form an abstract image of a human skull, under which the skull and crossbones are stitched with a tomahawk and sword pattern.

This flag was designed by Rurik himself. The so-called pirate ship must have an appropriate flag!

The flag is talked about for everyone, the skull represents death, just like the purpose of the ship's long journey-to bring death.

Everyone knows that their trip is to be a monster cruising in the sea, and they must do what they can kill. People want them to kill violently to vent the anger of their brothers.

A large number of strategic materials are transported to the ship by manual cranes with net bags. They are a large amount of hard-dried scones, hard dried salted fish, baskets of onions, and a large amount of fresh water in oak barrels.

Such materials are enough to support a ship of more than 30 people fighting for two months. Of course, their endurance is definitely not the case. Even if they need to be supplied, the first supply point is Saaremaa Island.

Spuyute stood under the ship and bid farewell to the Governor of Shilla Fort.

Looking at his men, Tralang and his men all put on the standard Russian uniforms, especially the lining, but blue and white striped shirts sewn and woven with blue and white twine. The ten people are from Saarema Island, and the remaining twenty people are also a hodgepodge. They include native Russ, Varanga from other sources, local Slavs and Suomi.

Their ethnicity is quite complicated, but fortunately they can communicate in Gnostic. They are a group of true desperadoes, and they are convinced that their fierce work is justified.

Everyone is carefully selected by Sipuyoute. It is necessary to kill the enemy cruelly without blinking, and secondly, you must not get seasick.

What can I chat with the governor is nothing more than the last greeting.

"Your trip is full of risks. I'm afraid that your lone ship will rush into Denmark and be encircled. If you are in danger, you must escape first..." Governor Konuzong repeatedly warned.

Spuyute is talking non-stop, but in fact he looks fearless and fearless in his heart.

The Aphrodite once defeated a hundred in Denmark, and the stronger Salmon Chief could only achieve greater results.

The pirate flag fluttered, the shackles of the big ship were untied, and the people entered the Gulf of Finland amidst the cheers, and continued to sail towards Saaremaa Island.

A few days later, they successfully arrived offshore of Saaremaa Island and dropped anchor at a suitable berth.

Tralang, the messenger of the islanders, became a servant of the Rus Principality. His entourages are descendants of the former Rus exiles, and all of them now have the status of Russ.

They saw the strength of the Rus and even participated in the Winter War against the Karelians. Now they returned home with the spoils, especially the crying prisoners.

Any verbal description is not as convincing as the actual spoils. Fighting for the Ross people can get female slaves. The facts immediately shocked the islanders.

Spuyut entered the village, and he declared his rule here as the Earl of Saaremaa, Duchy of Ross. All the islanders expressed their deep support. This is their purpose. From then on, they submit to a regional power, so that future piracy has a powerful blessing.

Do not! The real situation is far beyond the islanders' perception.

A pair of excited eyes stared at Spuyute who was standing on the soil platform. He learned the routine of Rurik, rolling hard paper into a trumpet and preaching his own ideas.

"You! All subjects of the Duchy of Ross, all subjects of this earl. I am your leader. I will take your money, iron, wheat, and women with you. We have a powerful warship, and we are about to start fighting The blow of the Danish Merchant Marine. I will lead you to victory. All men and women will become fighters, and we will all make a fortune."

The words are very crude, and the poor and crazy people are really useful.

Spuyute was embraced by the people of the entire fishing village. A wooden pole stood upright, and the flag of Ross was also flying on the island.

As a result, some new measures began to be implemented. After all, the island was under the legal rule of the Rus Principality, and the island began to be fortified.

Saaremaa Island began to construct large-scale construction, the island began to build a coastal wooden fortress, an abstract drawing on paper of the city defense construction plan became the construction blueprint. An island fort must be built, just to prevent the Danes from reprisals due to excessive piracy, so that the fort can be defended.

The islanders’ construction activities were ignored by Spuyut. He did not dare to live up to the preferential treatment and funding of Prince Rurik, and out of anger, he must retaliate wildly in the Danish waters.

A big ship with a huge spinnaker shrouded in anger all the way west, and it was not Denmark that was the first to bear the brunt, but the group of fishermen who served the Danish island of Burgundy.

The first target appeared ahead!

Sprout skillfully ordered: "Attention starboard! Cast iron bullets are loaded!"

The battleship ignored the fishing boat's escape, catching up and launching.

In an instant, the thin wooden shell of the fishing boat was pierced by the cast iron projectile, causing multiple leaking holes. The captured inferior bone cluster arrows were fired by a steel arm crossbow, directly killing the fisherman.

Without any greetings with opponents, the pirate ship solves a fishing boat cleanly.

Five people had ropes tied around their waists and ransacked the trophies before the fishing boat sank.

A small box of freshly caught herring, fishing nets, harpoons, axes, etc. are all transported to the big ship. After completing the mission, the five men were dragged back to the ship by the brothers.

After all, the Saarema islanders are a group of poor and crazy people. They became royal pirates and still searched very carefully, even stripping off the linen clothes of the dead fishermen.

They also did a terrible act! The head of the deceased was chopped off, thrown into a fishing net and immediately hung on the stern of the big boat. This is a testament to the horrible battle. Firstly, it boosted morale and advocated the brutality of the brothers. As for the stench from the head, this is not a problem, as the constant sea breeze can blow it away.

Rurik did promise that the enemy's head could be exchanged for money. He was very relieved to Spuyute, there was no act of killing good and doing meritorious deeds. After all, the Swedish allies would not go to the southern waters, and the main force of the Ross Fleet did not have an order to go to the south or west. There was only one type of person who died under Spuyut's hand-the enemy.

Relying on the means of fighting and raising the battle, Spuyute, who frantically hunted down the enemy's fishing boats, soon began to dislike those poor fishing boats.

He was ordered to execute the order of Rurik to kill without pardon. He did not leave any prisoners. It took only a few days. On Burgundy Island, the gateway island in the western Baltic Sea, ten fishing boats sank.

The horrible news spread across the island, and the islanders don’t need to discern it carefully. The spinnaker is the most obvious signal that the so-called Ross Killers are here again.

Wasn't the battle against the Ross looking for death? Even a big ship is hard to beat.

But the islanders are not all cowards. More than two hundred people organized eight rowing boats to set sail for battle. According to the script of the islanders, when the brothers approached, after throwing the noose, the soldiers climbed up the rope to jump and kill. This is naturally very risky, but everyone's hungry stomachs have controlled their minds.

After all, Burgundy is a small island. If fishing is not possible, the resources on the island alone will not be enough to feed everyone!

As a result, Spuyute here is pure revenge, and the fishing boat is used as a target for training. For the islanders, the de facto blockade of a large terrorist ship can lead to the destruction of the entire island.

A naval battle, Spuyou can't help but look at the combat effectiveness of the Salmon Chief.

The encounter between the two sides was completely one-sided. The lone ships were killed indiscriminately. Eight long ships of the islanders were sunk six, and more than a hundred people were buried in the sea. The victor also caught axes and harpoons that had not had time to sink to the bottom of the sea.

People cheered the naval battle, and Spuyote was happy, his eyes turned to the far west.

"Brothers get ready again. We are not robbing fishermen. We officially entered Denmark to rob their merchant ships!"

The Port of Hezeby has experienced war, and the destructiveness of the war last year was not fatal. The port resumed most of its commercial activities, and merchants who followed the rule of King Horlick of Denmark continued to do business.

However, this year's international situation has undergone major changes, making the business that has just resumed become full of huge risks.

It turned out that Prince Ludwig of East Francia had been enlisted by himself!

Elite cavalry from Regensburg was dispatched, and the prince personally led five hundred cavalry to arrive in Hamburg early.

The Earl of Bremen and the Earl of Hamburg responded one after another, and a large number of local farmers who had completed spring ploughing were also recruited as a surprise, but these farmers largely made up the number.

The prince actually assembled a large army composed of various personnel, with a total strength of four thousand, of which the cavalry unit has a total of 800 horses.

The cloth wraps the horses, making it appear that the horses have armor. The cavalry warriors are all chain armors. They are holding the most classic spears and lined up on the wall. It is horrible for the cavalry to gather together.

The prince asked Horlick, the "loyal dog", to show his attitude, and considering that the other party might rebel, he assembled the army of Chen Bing on the border of the Great Wall at Schleswig.

The Franks did not have a navy, and even the hasty organization of maritime forces could not deter the Danes. But the army can directly overwhelm it, and it is feasible to sweep Jutland.

It seems that the other party is really against it!

Prince Ludwig waved his hand, and a history was created.

When the Schleswig Great Wall was built, the Frankish army had no record of crossing it, and even Charlemagne did not want to go too far into the hinterland of Denmark.

Prince Ludwig, who thought highly of himself, made a decision that went against his ancestors. The army crossed the Great Wall and rushed directly to the Port of Hezeby.

The war broke out!

This happened in April. The merchants who were on the sidelines seized the time and ran softly. Those who had not had time to withdraw were killed and cleansed by the Frankish army as an enemy, and the merchant's property was looted by the prince. The prince has a reason for doing this, because the army is a monster that consumes supplies crazily. It would be great if the army can raise living supplies by itself, and it is indeed a good choice to allow them to plunder.

Those French soldiers killed men and insulted women, so much so that the priests with the army could not stand it. All this was acquiesced by the prince, and he did not allow these barbarians to disobey. Besides, what's the problem with showing tough methods in Hezeby? Isn't this a land of no owners? Killing a group of people will certainly not encounter hostility from other Danish tribes.

But the various tribes felt that the next person to be beheaded was themselves.

Ragnar, who has become a chief, is furious for it!

His father, Sigurd of the Ring, had died of illness and became the leader himself.

The Franks tore up the 811 peace treaty and launched another war to invade Denmark!

As a tribe close to the border, Hezeby's final collapse and the city's so-called Governor Stad fleeing with his subordinates without resistance, young Ragnar felt that he had been completely betrayed. Never sit still, he decided to counterattack with his clan.

Men and women are at least young, and all those who can hold weapons are assembled. Ragnar assembled nearly 800 fighters, and the cowards ran away. These people were hard-hearted rebels, so the army was all the fighting power that a small tribe could assemble.

Ragnar organized his own fleet to leave the village and plunge directly into Schleswig along the eastern coastline.

"The Franks are back to their alliance, and Horlick is Frank's lackey! We must retaliate against them and follow me to slaughter Schleswig!"

The long ship fleet suddenly appeared, and the Viking fanatics landed on the beach.

With the slogan of exchanging blood with high protection, they slaughtered all the living people in the Schleswig military stronghold.

After the madness, some women were left to the end. According to Viking rules, these women should be brought back to the tribe as slaves.

Ragnar must show blood and brutality to his people. This is the only way he understands to maintain his rule.

All the prisoners were **** to cover the firewood, and finally burned to death. This is how he sacrificed to Odin.

Those poor little priests, yes, it was the group of people left behind by the northern saint Eskil, who were all captured by Ragnar, and in the end burned to the point that there was no ashes left.

Ragnar's revenge has just begun, and their large group of fanatics needs a lot of supplies, and they must fight to support the war. They marched towards Hamburg and ransacked the villages along the way.

Is it really all tactics to change home?

Ragner’s Viking army had already approached Hamburg and immediately fought with the Hamburg defenders. If it weren't for a qualified city defense system and the sluggish siege methods of Ragnar's army, Hamburg would have died. The siege caused damage to soldiers and soldiers. Ragnar, who was frustrated for the first time, did not choose to smash to the end. He immediately began to rob villages along the Elbe River to the upper reaches of the area.

A malignant tumor is deteriorating in the East Franconian sub-Saxony. Prince Ludwig, who is waiting for Horrick’s slide in Denmark, regards the bad news from the messenger as Horrick’s rebellion.

He had to lead his troops back to the Great Wall, ignoring Hezebi's chicken feathers, and the Earl of Hamburg took the lead to relieve his own territory.

When they arrived at the Earl of Hamburg, all they saw along the Elbe were coked villages and a large number of corpses.

The Franks were furious and weeping bitterly, enduring the suffering, the prince gave an order: "Army! Go to Flanders! Kill all the Normans in Durist!"

According to Horlick's plan, the men who stayed in the Flanders (Netherlands) Durist (East Armstrong) stronghold will return to Denmark in 836. A Norman pirate den directly turned into an undefended trading city.

Prince Ludwig retaliated in sympathy, and those Durrists who did not leave were regarded as rebels and killed.

By the time of May, the situation had become very turbulent.

As a result, an extremely bad situation was placed in front of Horlick, the king of Denmark.

He was thunderous in his palace in Godfrehagen, the northernmost city of the peninsula.

He summoned many lords to inquire about countermeasures, and sighed: "Oops! How did the kingdom become like this! A nasty Ross ship is looting my merchant ship everywhere! And Ludwig, are you going to destroy my country? You say, Who on earth beat Frank first?! This is going to kill me!"

A series of questions struck the lords who pointed out that the hateful big ship energy came from the revenge of the Rus. As for whether it was related to the killing of the Franks, it is unknown.

It was their fault that the Franks ransacked Hezeby, but without an order, who would counterattack the opponent frantically first?

"It's the Ragnar of the Stonewall tribe, the Ragnar in the wool pants." Someone pointed out with a certainty.

"Ragna? Sigurd's bastard? Unexpectedly, there is such a madman in my hand?!"

In fact, Horrick was happy and furious. What he liked was the cruelty of this person, and he felt that there were madmen in Denmark. What was angry about this person was that he still did not admit that he was the king of Denmark.

Ragnar has to deal with the disaster by himself, but now things have become extremely complicated. If the Danish army is assembled to fight East Frank, there must be no problem at all, and the outcome is difficult to decide.

But turning his face with Ludwig was definitely not his purpose.

He can only sigh with the pain of "coming with insects to govern the country". decisive battle? Denmark can play the Frankish regular army? Ragnar's killing was a pure sneak attack, which doesn't explain much.

Horrick wanted to kill the soldiers, and now he must take the army to negotiate. He must be prepared with both hands If the negotiation fails, then fight! The Danes are never slaves.

As for the Ross ship that hunts and cruises like a lone wolf, Denmark has no time to hunt down.

Horrick issued a general mobilization of the lords. In order to prevent Denmark from being slaughtered, the Danes must unite against Frank, just as Chief Godfrey did thirty years ago.

He also issued a temporary sea ban, which is actually a threat: "You can go to sea. If you are killed by the Ross villain, this king will not help you at this time."

Sea Forbidden can't stop real merchants. The more wars there are, the more profitable it is to transport tomahawks, spearheads, and wooden shields.

But a small boat was already drifting on the Weser River in Bremen, and Eskil and the Blue Fox finally left Frank in the right season. Because of the lack of information, they did not know that a large group of Danish Vikings were killing everywhere, nor did they know that the Royal Rose pirates were hunting Danish ships everywhere.

They are floating on the sea, and the future is of course full of hardships, and they have this knowledge.

It's just that the blue fox, who has become quite lean, can't imagine what happened in the area ahead.
