In the Kuressaare tribe, Sarema chief Veliteif was frowning and thinking, and several courtiers in the lord's house were arguing over the sudden landing of the Vikings.
"We must immediately mobilize all our forces to attack the pirates' camps, otherwise we may face trouble when they gain a foothold." General Uru is a close friend of Velitev. He wears a chainmail armor. Wearing a blue cloak, he held his hands on the wooden table in front of him and spoke loudly to everyone.
"Sir, I suggest we wait until the envoys come back. They may be passing by, and maybe they can send them away with some money." The financial controller, Little Velitev, said that although he has the same name as the chief, he is completely two people.
"The envoy sent has not returned. Something may have happened." At this time, a man who had been sitting next to him and drinking wine said to everyone.
"Miko, are you saying that those pirates killed His Majesty's envoy?" Uru and Little Velitev looked at him at the same time and said.
"The shepherds came back and told us that the number of those Vikings was amazing. They might not be ordinary pirates." Miko stood up and took out a sheepskin with the island of Saarema drawn on it. He pointed at the shepherds. The coast where traces of Ulf and others were found, said to everyone.
"We don't have many disputes with the Vikings. Since they discovered the islands to the west, they rarely come to us." Little Velitev touched his chin, because compared with the Vikings, they were almost the same. Poverty, robbing them could not bring Ulf any less wealth.
"Yes, but you must be vigilant. You should gather the army!" Ulu's brown eyes stared at the silent chief Teifmiko and suggested to him.
"How many people can you summon?" Chief Teifumiko felt a headache. It would take a small amount of time and materials to summon an army, which was less expensive than getting rid of a pirate stronghold. But for his own danger, he could only So done.
"Recruit about a hundred heavy infantry, a hundred archers, and a hundred spearmen. I feel that I have enough time to recruit about 700 to 700 people." Yves immediately calculated the military strength he had on hand. Said to the chief.
Mist shrouded the entire island, and the island of Saaremaa, near the Baltic Sea, felt dry. The islanders there lived a difficult life, mainly relying on grazing and fishing.
"A war can only be fought with a small number of people?" The Viking said to the person who asked that question, holding a piece of roast rabbit in his mouth.
"I know, but you will solve it." Chief Teifmiko comforted.
"Has he ever caught fish?" Willett raised the corner of his mouth, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, and said to the Viking.
"But even so, the opponent's number is comparable to yours." The Vikings were not worried at all.
"We can gather a thousand people, can you win?" Willett sat around with the Vikings and others, and we discussed how to conquer the island.
We, who live in poverty, also understand why a small group of Ulfs suddenly invaded, but at the chief's order we still carried harpoons and pitchforks and dispersed in villages.
"You are worried about our military strength. You mean to fight quickly and capture the opponent's city as quickly as possible." Willit frowned slightly and reminded Hou Yewei.
"The Ugo gods will bless you!" Little Willy looked at the blanket hanging under the wall. Underneath, a small-horned elk was painted with red dye. In the totem of the Ugo religion, this is the incarnation of the Holy Spirit. .
"There weren't many pirates that time?" Another fisherman seemed to know the farmer, and the two of us walked together. Both of us were wearing smart shoes. We stepped on the slippery ground, and the mud made a squeaking sound. the sound of.
"oh?"
The next day, early morning.
"But the bravery of the Estonians is not lost to you. What if the loss is too little?"
"As far as you know, the territory in the distance belongs to the little prince of Estonia. If you can take the island as soon as possible, it is very likely that the local chief will ask the little prince for help, and then you will be in a deeper situation. It's a profit." Willit frowned slightly and expressed his feelings.
After handling the government affairs, Chief Teifumiko returned to the bedroom. His wife was taking her eight children behind the fireplace, telling us stories about the gods in Ugo religion and the qualities of Sisu.
"It's difficult, how can one person be the winner?" The Viking raised his head and looked at Hou Yewei.
"Tactics?" The Vikings took a curious look. We have enough manpower. It's not difficult to eat a thousand of the opponent's people with seven to seven hundred people.
The same conscripts walked along the winding and spacious road under the island towards the Kuressaare Walled City. People who were familiar with each other along the way greeted each other and walked together. We seemed to be going. Fighting is more like attending a fair.
"Is Ulf here again?" My wife, Little Willy, asked worriedly. The last Ulf invasion happened when you were an adult. Before that, Hou Yewei gradually increased his raids on Finland. It is said that no Viking leader found out. To the west, you can get less wealth.
"Who knows, the little chief ordered all the women from all villages who can go to the battlefield to gather together. I guess there must be many enemies." The fisherman scratched his hair, I looked at Qi Zhou and sighed again. Recently, I know why, There were few fish to catch, and the whole family was about to starve. I thought it would be bad again.
At this time, in Willett's camp, after torture, we basically got the information we wanted.
"We must fight quickly and try to allow the other party to escape." Willett thought for a while and said to the Vikings and others.
"A group of pirates are stationed in your territory." Chief Teifmiko sat under the chair and looked at the big man staggering towards him, with a smile on his face.
"What should we do? If we win, if the remaining enemies will retreat to the walled city to defend, you will still have to besiege them." The Viking said to Willett with a slap in the face.
"What happened?" His wife, Little Willy, hugged the eldest man, turned around and saw Chief Teifumiko walking back, taking off the soft fur hat under his head, and asked curiously.
"Damn Ulf, do we know the stopping point?" A farmer cursed with a pitchfork. As a conscript, I had to respond to the chief's summons.
"Forget it, you can only disobey the order." The farmer sighed heavily, shrugged his shoulders and looked up at the nearby wooden fence. "Vikings, please discuss tactics." Willett ate the barbecue in his hands in several bites, clapped his greasy hands, and said to Hou Yewei.
"Go ahead and gather as few people as possible." Chief Teifmiko nodded slightly and ordered to his general.
"Fishing?" The Viking looked confused, understanding why Willett suddenly mentioned that.
"If we didn't have so few people, this prisoner would only be half-suspected." Willit shook his head heavily and said to Hou Yewei.
