Rise of Rurik

Chapter 5 Roseburg

Therefore, our hero Liu Li, who is now a baby, was born in a small bay in the middle of Scandinavia. This place is also the settlement of the Ross tribe, which is simply called by the Ross tribe. Roseburg.

But he is a baby after all, and everything that survives completely needs the care of his biological mother.

After a few days, Liu Li finally figured out the situation he was in. Could he be able to accept Erjin's reality in an instant? To be a part of these ancient human races dressed everywhere?

However, after all, he was just a baby.

Now Liu Li has a lot of time to figure out the situation he is in.

Before that, what he didn't know was that the biological father of this body was rushing towards Roseburg with hundreds of warriors and a large amount of wealth obtained through plundering and fighting.

At this time, Nia could clearly perceive the abnormality of the child in her arms.

For example, children always look at themselves with those lovely big blue eyes, or look left and right, as if they have an extremely urgent hope to gain insight and remember everything they have seen and heard.

"Child, do you have an infinite desire for the outside world like your father? Do you just want to explore the outside world?"

"Oh! You are still too young. When you grow up, you will definitely become a great warrior. Even, become our leader..."

Niya had too many words of blessing for her beloved son, and she also hoped that nothing would happen to the child before the beard grew.

However, boys of all tribes, when they reach a certain age, develop fighting skills under the education of veteran warriors.

The Rus tribe, they are like all the tribes in Scandinavia, they are not born with strong fighting ability, but because they have a lot of time to hone their fighting ability.

Niya patted the child on the back, trying to coax him to sleep, but the child still opened his eyes wide and moved his mouth as if to say something.

It was completely difficult for Nia to understand these situations. The only thing that seemed to be able to explain it was the prophecy of the female elder. This child is absolutely extraordinary. He has been blessed by Odin, and his life will surely bring glory to the tribe.

Nia was pleasantly surprised by these, and as time went on, she paid more and more attention to another major event - the warriors who went to collect the tribute from the Swigs, I am afraid that the return date is only a few days.

She was like many women in the tribe, who were looking forward to the return of their husbands and sons with great wealth.

In the past few days, the atmosphere of the entire Roseburg has become more and more lively.

People have already started talking, and the wonderful goods brought back by the so-called warriors will be distributed according to the family, and finally implemented into the hands of each clan. At that time, how many babies will fall into your hands?

Niya knows best that the world has changed.

As for the distribution of the spoils, she heard that in the time of the ancestors, the men and women of the tribe, even the youngest child, were entitled to a share.

Today, it is men who go to fight, and men who go to great lengths to take tribute. Naturally, the power of men in the tribe is getting higher and higher.

Now, only men who have gone through the bar mitzvah have the right to receive the distribution.

The so-called coming-of-age ceremony, for grown-up boys, is to prove that they are real men by participating in a battle.

Therefore, as the leader's wife, Nia knew very well that her small family could get rich rewards from this operation.

Wealth really came too timely, in this way, the small family has very abundant wealth, and can take care of the little guy in his arms through the first winter of his life.

Finally, the warriors' fleet is approaching the port of Roseburg!

Tribal fishermen fishing for Baltic herring off the coast were the first to spot the approaching fleet.

first,

The fishermen were on the utmost alert.

After all, in this era, fishermen also work part-time as "heroes at sea". If they find a fishing boat of a non-ally clan alone, the fishermen of the Ross clan don't mind looting it.

This time, the large fleet, with wide sails raised, approached the port under the northeasterly winds of autumn.

People with excellent eyesight immediately understood that the comer was not the enemy, it was entirely because of one of the leading warships in the fleet, whose sails were dyed with unique textures.

It was a pattern of two oars crossed. Having such a pattern was actually a great achievement for the Ross tribe.

Speaking of which, the pattern on this sail was not made by the Ross tribe.

"Shaking oars" is the origin of the name of the "Ros" tribe. Although the tribe has mastered the textile technology of linen, it is precisely the lack of cloth printing and dyeing technology.

All the "oars" symbols that symbolize the Ross tribe come from the tribe's allies, those southern thinkians.

After all, the Siamians are a big alliance of a group of tribes, and the Ross tribe is also a part of them in essence.

It's just that the Ross tribe is too far north. The tribe intends to maintain its own initiative, but it also hopes to maintain peace with the "brother" tribes in the south, or at least not to conflict.

All the fabrics printed and dyed with the oar patterns are made by the allies in the south, so some of the dragon-headed warships of the Ross tribe sewed it on the sails to declare their friendly status to their own people and allies, and also to the enemy. exist.

Standing on the deck, Otto deliberately lowered his sails to announce his triumph to the elders of the tribe. He also ordered all the rowers to keep rowing, not only accelerating forward, but also constantly adjusting the course.

Otto soon encountered the tribe's fishing boat, and after a brief negotiation, the fleet moved further.

On the way, those fishing boats saw a completely different scene from when they set off.

I saw some warships dragging some small boats with cables, and the decorations on their bows were by no means the routine of their own tribes and allies.

The fishermen even thought about it with their toes and knew that this voyage of Chief Otto was not as simple as taking tribute, they went through battle! And a lot to ask for!

Yes, Otto's hundreds of warriors fought on the unnamed deserted island with a group of Gotlanders, and the biggest gain was a large number of weapons.

Although iron smelting technology has spread to Scandinavia, which is known as the "dark place", in fact, many of the desolate hills here are originally iron ore. All Viking tribes have the ability to burn charcoal and use it to smelt iron, but they prefer to fight to obtain the enemy's metal and take it back to their own homes to smelt the tools they need.

They can actually mine mines and extract pure iron by burning stones.

Especially the territory of the main clan of Siya, where a large number of iron ore veins are hidden. The only thing they lacked was the eye for discovering ore!

So, Otto followed the traditional thinking and took all the axes and swords of the enemy.

The death of the younger brother is a painful thing, and it is also the great pain of the son left behind by the younger brother. So as the uncle of that child, Otto knew very well that, according to tribal tradition, he was about to succeed his father.

Home, the cold but warm homeland, the hometown is just ahead, that little bay, that happy Roseburg.

Otto looked around, and there were already a large number of ships heading towards the sky.

Otto, he has heard the cheers of his people!
