With the help of the sea waves, the dragon-headed long boat rushed onto the soft beach. Su Chen took off the round shield hanging on the side of the long boat, jumped off, and stepped directly on the beach with his feet. He raised his head and looked In the past, there were lush woods above the cliff, but the top of the fence could still be seen faintly between the branches.
"There." Su Chen raised the ax in his hand, pointed forward and said to Vargas who was struggling to pull up the long boat behind him.
"Visby." Vargas dropped the rope in his hand, shook his hair that was wet by the sea water, and stared at the top of the fence.
Ange silently put his buckler on his back, braided his hair, then took out a piece of black mud paste and smeared it around his eyes to make his eyes appear more sunken, and then he mentioned His own battle ax followed, and eleven Norse warriors followed them.
When Su Chen told the other North warriors about his plan to raid Visby, many of them felt incredible and thought that this was an impossible raid. Even if it succeeded, they would not be able to escape unscathed. However, Su Chen Let them choose freely. Those who agree can follow them to Visby, and those who do not want to return with other long ships.
"They must have seen us." Ange looked at the panicked figures running on the wall and said to Suchen.
"There's no way. Originally, Visby's was on a hill near the sea, and the wall was higher. It's not surprising that they could see it." Su Chen nodded, but it could be seen from the other party's panicked expression that they Didn't expect to be attacked by pirates.
"Woooooo~~." A dull horn sounded, which was a warning horn.
The female chief of Osa boarded the wooden wall at this time. She was surprised to see the long boat washed up on the coast. What surprised her even more was that the long boat was made by Visbiar. Their dragon The Shougang tribe is different from other tribes and has obvious totem characteristics of the Visby people, so it is easy to recognize them.
"Did they defeat my husband?" This thought shocked the female chief of Osa. She tried her best to calm down, but she saw a rustling sound coming from the woods outside the Visby wall.
"Mother, are you an enemy?" Stern put on his armor and helmet. He came to the wall with a battle ax and asked curiously, but there was a little excitement in his expression. , this was the first time he faced off against an enemy.
"You go back." Out of a mother's protection for her children, the female chief of Osa hurriedly said to Stern.
"Why, I am also a Norseman, and one day I will become a Viking warrior." Stern said dissatisfiedly. It may be that the female chief of Osa was too protective of him, which made Stern rebel.
"Pa." Suddenly, a slap came over without warning. Five obvious fingerprints appeared on Stern's right cheek. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but there was no expression because he knew that Osa was furious. , so he turned around and left silently.
"What a careless child." Osa withdrew her hand. She did not feel guilty about it. In her opinion, only obedient children deserved her protection.
"Madam, the guards have begun to mount the wall to fight." At this time, a Visby warrior came to her and said with an iron sword in his hand.
"Very good, although we are short of manpower, we must keep the enemy out, and my husband will be back soon." The female chief of Osa said confidently.
"Yes, we will defend the city wall to the death." The Visby warrior said loudly.
Su Chen did not launch an attack immediately. He hid in the woods and stared at the wall in front of them. There was a simple sentry tower every ten steps on the wall. Archers hid inside and attacked outside. The enemy was shooting, while the Visby warriors on the wall were also nervously defending.
"It won't be easy!" Vargas walked up to Suchen and handed him a torn piece of bacon while chewing it himself.
"Visbiar has taken away most of the soldiers. The ones on the wall must be temporarily recruited soldiers. Their combat effectiveness will not be very high." Su Chen took the food and made sure to fill his stomach before the war started. , many recruits cannot eat before the battle, which actually greatly affects their combat effectiveness, and this is also the difference between veterans and recruits.
"Then how are you going to get over the wall? We didn't bring any siege equipment." Vargas curled his lips. Although he volunteered to participate in this adventure, he didn't think Su Chen would succeed. He just wanted to see it with his own eyes. Su Chen was just exhausted.
"That's right, even if we cut down trees now to make bumping wood, it's too late." Ange also said to Su Chen at this time.
"No, I already expected it. Sure enough, in this era, the people of Visby cannot build too high a wall. This kind of wooden fence about two meters high is already the limit." Su Chen stared at the loose wall in Visby. In a word, the Norse are good at attacking, but not good at building cities, so their so-called city wall is like a high wooden fence.
"This is high enough." Vargas opened his mouth in surprise. The two-meter-high wooden wall was enough to block their way, but Su Chen said it was not high. Is there a higher wall?
"Attacking? That city gate is too strong." Ange frowned, and she pointed at the city gate with her axe. The city gate was made of strong and heavy fir wood. Even if they got close, they couldn't chop it down with the axe. .
"Maybe Ulf can cast magic and let us fly over." Vargas couldn't help but laugh. Even if they fought side by side on the battlefield, Vargas couldn't help but mock Su Chen in his spare time. .
"Yes, we will fly over." A smile appeared on Su Chen's lips. He squatted down, inserted his hands into the soil, and looked at the Visby wall in front of him.
"What?" At this time, Vargas and Ange were surprised at the same time. They looked at each other and then at Su Chen who was squatting down.
Visby's warriors stood nervously on the wall. Suchen's judgment was correct. There were only a small number of warriors among them, most of them were temporarily recruited farmers and civilians, holding spears and hatchets to defend the city wall. However, Fortunately, they only had to stand on the wall. As the saying goes, it is easy to be strong behind the wall.
"Don't worry, Madam. From the longships that washed up on the shore, I judge that the number of pirates who came is no more than a dozen. These people have no chance of breaking through our town." The warrior followed the Osa female chief and assured her.
"Very good, as long as I persist for one day, my husband will come back." The female chief of Osa has secretly sent people to find her husband. As soon as reinforcements arrive, this group of pirates will definitely retreat.
"Of course, but we can defeat this group of pirates." Visby's warriors raised their heads proudly, their thick brown-red beards trembling in the wind. At this moment, they heard a commotion, and curiously Turning around and looking at the past.
I saw six North warriors carrying round shields and carrying rolls of things on their shoulders, running towards them. This strange scene made the Visby people so surprised that they almost didn't react at all.
"Damn it, archers, shoot quickly, stop him, no matter what they are doing." The female chief of Osa was the first to react, and she immediately yelled angrily. It was only then that the Viking longbowmen in the guard tower hurriedly bent He nocked an arrow from his bow and shot at the North warriors who were running over.
"Duo~~." When the arrows flew over, the North warriors carrying things did not stop. They quickly took off the bucklers on their backs and covered their heads with the bucklers. It hit the shield with a muffled sound.
"Hoo, ho, ho." These North warriors didn't know what they were doing, but they would follow Su Chen's orders. When they used their bucklers to defend themselves against the arrows and stones on their heads, they quickly They ran to the wooden wall, pressing their bodies tightly against the wooden wall, which reduced the area attacked by arrows and stones. In a short distance, the violent movement made them take a few breaths.
"Open." When they came to the wooden wall, the North soldiers opened the things they were carrying, which surprised the Visby people on the wall even more.
