A small sled team is running wildly on the ice field. People are not worried because of the fact that they are only one hundred and forty people. They are high-spirited and well-equipped.
How much can be captured by the Karelians? Maybe there can be a lot of deer.
Telavis took his more than 30 fighters, and a hundred capable First Infantry fighters to help out. Although the troops were small, they were strong. Because of the previous combat experience, the soldiers sat on the sled and talked and laughed. They reached a wonderful consensus that they would support the brothers in Bear Festival Town to fight the enemy. Everyone could not get anything valuable.
In some cases, the Russ' view of war became fighting for the sake of war.
It is only right to rescue the brother who was attacked, and it is right to kill the attacker, and the desperate killing is to show Odin the power of a real man.
What is archery, trapping and hunting squirrels? Bear hunting today is not a great honor.
Only frantic killing on the battlefield is considered "interesting."
On the other hand, the Karelian army that besieged the town of Bear Sacrifice turned into a siege after three consecutive failed charges. Relying on the superiority in numbers and the slow increase in military strength, Chief Kascuwe has no better way, and can only launch the fourth round after the increase in strength.
The young and great leader who founded the emirate did not make the fighters who followed him achieve a quick victory. The Haikou that had been boasted fell to nothing, and the war became a war of attrition that no one liked.
At least it is affordable for the Karelians to master the location.
Reindeer is a kind of "walkable farmland." Karelians get blood, meat, milk, leather and bones from the deer. The former is food and water, and the latter is the source of clothes and weapons.
As many as 30,000 reindeer were driven to the area near the town of Bear Festival. After all, this area is a traditional Karelian pasture. With the material support of these livestock, Kascuwe has the capital of the siege.
Facing a moat-filled fortress with rammed earth and wood, the big leader was basically helpless and had no choice but to adopt the stupid method of besieging the city. As for when the siege was the leader, only God knew.
In order to prevent the people in the fort from coming out looking for food to eat, they built tents around the fort. Often a dozen people stood guard in turn to watch, and a large number of Karelian warriors were ambushed in the forest behind.
There is another major reason that supports this group of people fighting-the bear altar.
The vast majority of the soldiers had a serious lack of knowledge of the regular army in the Duchy of Ross. They only saw the sacred sacrificial center being stolen by the enemy, and they shamelessly built a fortress.
More than two hundred people were killed in the battle, and dozens of others died after their injuries deteriorated.
Most Karelian fighters were originally from clans, but now they are called up to fight with father, son and brothers. They saw the death of their relatives and friends, and saw that the Holy Land was seized, and the fire of vengeance ignited in their hearts drove them to rely on them.
The card army was unable to seize the city, and the fort Nairo army had no intention of going out of the city to fight in chaos.
By the eighth day of the battle, the two sides reached a weird tacit understanding. They stood quietly. No one took the initiative to launch an attack. Even the Ross people, who had superior weapons, were too lazy to hit a light javelin with a torsion slingshot. With big eyes and small eyes, they are clearly waiting for strategy.
On the tenth day of the battle, a flag with a white background and blue stripes was flying on the ice lake from the south!
The Karelians with good eyesight were taken aback. Those on guard felt that they were reinforcements from the Rus. They were extremely vigilant and passed on the news immediately.
The unrestricted waiting has been killing the authority of the chieftain, when Cascuway learned of the news, he stood up from the hiding place with a flap of his thigh.
"Call on my brothers, the invaders' reinforcements are here. We were unable to conquer their fortresses, so we killed their reinforcements, offering blood sacrifices to the mountain gods and lake gods!"
The soldiers who were almost suffocating were almost out of their nests, and the strange movements of the Karelians also shocked the Russ troops stationed in the fortresses ascended to the city.
The garrison clearly saw the flag hung on the sled team. Everyone was very happy that the prince had sent reinforcements, but it was a pity that there were so many people?
On the other hand, those Karelians dressed as bears, they rushed like they were going to a wedding.
The horns blew, the cowhide drum was slammed, and the people at the head of the city shouted desperately, hoping that the sound would reach the small-scale reinforcements to help them increase their vigilance. Although the Rus are contemptuous of the Karelian army, they are not so arrogant that they can beat ten one by one.
Not far from the front is the snow-covered lake, a fortress suddenly appeared. Telavis saw clearly the flags of Ross flying in the fort, and heard the faint noise coming from a distance, what the sound meant, and the information had been distorted by the cold wind plundering the ice.
There is one thing that caused the DNA of all fighters to tremble!
Let’s talk about the First Banner Team. The brothers are about the same age. In the summer, everyone plowed the land and planted wheat in Mstisk. Now they cooperate in catching pine trees and hunting white bears in the north.
There are soldiers from the First Banner Team in the fortress of Bear Festival Town, and there are more reinforcements in Telavis.
A hundred soldiers belong to the same centurion team, and the centurion is here. The Hundred-man squadron has four platoon-level combat units under the "fleet", and the commander is there. In fact, their group ran to the Kekisalmi stronghold of the Vips and was led by the centurion, and they themselves constituted a fierce winter hunting army. They threw a batch of hunted results in settlements, and then invested in reinforcements.
The centurion could determine by intuition that the large number of shaking figures were dangerous enemies.
"Attention brothers! All you see are enemies, get ready for battle!"
After getting the order, the brothers on the sled roared in unison.
The shields they carried were unloaded one after another. This time they did not wear chain mail because of hunting, and while losing a certain amount of defense, they also allowed everyone to gain lighter combat power.
Looking at the seventeen-year-old Telavis, this kid is naturally not the first time he has participated in the battle, and he is afraid of facing an enemy several times his own.
He had to resort to the centurion's strategy of fighting, and in this way, the centurion took command of the entire team.
A wonderful tactical plan was quickly formulated and put into effect. All fifteen sleds suddenly stopped on the ice field, and the soldiers began to deploy nervous personnel.
They have five torsion slingshots mounted on sleds for bear hunting. There are as many as 30 wooden-armed crossbows. Almost all the remaining personnel hold short wooden bows. Their identity is the hunter, even if the short wooden bow is not a very good combat weapon, at least the hunter is excellent. Special conditions have contributed to the amazing amount of long-range weapons and equipment of this small-scale reinforcement force, and the frozen Ladoga Lake and the reindeer sleigh also provide amazing mobility for everyone.
The sledges became the launching platform for the arrows. After the adjustment of the personnel configuration, the sledges began to rush towards the enemies gathered in the lake with the force of double columns.
The sledge was rushing, and the commanding centurion calmly ordered: "Take a bow! Free throw! Use wheel tactics, don't entangle them!"
Before the arrow is shot, the reinforcements have full battlefield initiative. When they approached the enemy's gathering array, they released their arrows first, and then quickly withdrew.
This is a special Parthian tactic. The archer never stays and does not give the enemy archers the opportunity to aim and shoot.
The arrows crackled and smashed. They were not dense and many arrows fell on the ice due to wind direction, but some of the strong ones began to kill.
Torsion slingshot is a light javelin used for bear hunting. This is a large arrow, which is longer and heavier. The kinetic energy of the slingshot is strong. The light javelin hit the dumb-faced Karelian warrior. Some were punched through the arm, and some were directly punched through the chest.
The death happened suddenly, and the death in such a battle was completely beyond the imagination of the Karelians.
At this moment, Chief Kascuwe once again thought of the hateful arrows of the invaders during the war the previous year.
The first round of attacks ended in a circle, and the reindeer were panting. Looking at the card army, their people still kept gathered, just clearly watching.
The two sides were shooting arrows at each other, and most of the arrows fell on the ice.
Immediately afterwards, the Ross people made some adjustments, and a new round of sprint began.
The crossbow and the torsion slingshot became the absolute protagonists. They were launched one after another at a very suitable combat speed position, relying on the advantage of range to give the Cavaliers a heavy punch.
There were more than 20 Cajun soldiers killed or injured. The soldiers who had been shooting arrows in vain had to spontaneously pull away the injured brother and retreat temporarily.
Everyone follows the instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, but the chief Kascuwe cannot bear such a shame. He thought of that sad rout again, and even thought that if he fights with the enemy early, even if the weapon is at a disadvantage, he won't die thousands of people or end up in a rout.
He led his cronies to persuade the escaped, and finally carried an iron sword to kill the deserter.
He gave the order: "Come on! Shoot arrows while rushing, and fight them hand-to-hand!"
Either retreat to the woods to play insidious tactics, or actively pursue them on the ice.
The Karelians did not want to be cowards anymore, they chose the former.
However, this group of Ross people has faded away from their recklessness.
Stepping on special anti-skid leather boots, as many as 600 people in the Cajun were ordered to hunt down on the ice. They shot arrows while advancing, and a large number of bone clusters smashed over the sky.
The Ross people finally ate some helmets, which could be blocked with shields. However, the reindeer was hit by arrows and raged. Two sleighs were out of control. The arrows in the reindeer were so painful that everyone was thrown off.
With an idea, the Centurion led the rest of the sledge to gather the fallen people, and retreat temporarily regardless of whether he was injured or not pulling on the sledge.
"A two-legged hunter can still run a sled? A joke! See if I am exhausted and kill you again."
The centurion was betting that the Karelians would be chasing after their love.
The Russ army deliberately retreated south, always staying at the edge of the enemy's wooden bow range, hanging their appetite to lure the enemy deep.
Finally, this kite-flying tactic has caught more than 200 people, and the killing and harvest is now.
The reindeer was beaten frantically, and the painful deer endured the exhaustion of running wildly and continued to sprint. This time they rushed towards the crowd.
Many Ross warriors on the sled have unloaded their bows, they are holding swords and spears. The sleigh became a kind of chariot, and the Centurion and Telavis made an agreement to wipe out the group of big fish that had been caught.
It can be said that the wars that Rurik has commanded in the past have given the lower-level officers a lot of two books that they can learn, such as the pincer tactics that turned into annihilation. More importantly, Lurik provided a philosophy of war, which is to fight the war of annihilation as much as possible.
The Ross invader, who seemed to be fleeing, turned around, and the person who was exhausted from the pursuit was too late to escape.
The reindeer sleigh rushed forward vigorously, and the card soldiers instinctively avoided it, but waiting for them was the sniper of the crossbow, and the thrust of the spear and the sword. The Cavaliers near the sled were pierced by a short spear or cut by a sword. The sled team walked on the two wings to complete the outflank, and staged the escape route of the card army. Then, a Ross warrior with a huge iron helmet with a huge nose guard had already got off the sled with a round shield and steel sword.
"Shield wall! Now!" The centurion gave an order, and the four well-trained "floats", one hundred fighters formed four shield wall groups, and finally merged into one.
The shield wall was advancing rapidly, and when the Cavaliers who had retreated in the stage saw the situation, the two sides fought together.
The steel sword was piercing, and every thrust was blood. The Ross shield wall was like a meat grinder, and the enemies encountered were killed one after another.
Telavis and his Vips warriors are not watching the show either. They hold bows to fight, shoot reinforcements from the rear of the enemy, and throw arrows to disrupt the enemy's position in the encirclement.
Next, it was just a simple killing by the men...
The controversy soon ended, and the corpses on the ice were lying in various directions, some wriggling people were still convulsing, and the Ruths made up a sword. The ice layer was radiating enthusiasm, it was actually from the evaporation of warm blood water, a large area of the ice surface was Yin Hong, the bloodthirsty soldier with his face and blood-red turned his head, shocked the Karelian army to flee.
The centurion was covered in blood from the enemy. He wiped a blood-red face with his arm and looked sharply at the brothers on the left and right: "Tell me, did anyone die in battle? Is anyone injured?"
They told each other that they were all right, and some yelled that the XX brother had suffered internal injuries.
"It is the shame of a soldier to be injured by someone weaker than a bear!" He cursed inwardly, and then looked at his restless brothers, "Go! Let's pursue the victory."
More than 100 people actually broke the offensive of 600 people, killing more than 200 people at the cost of no death.
The Karelians were terrified, and now Kascuwe was no longer able to pull the fleeing brothers. The Cajun troops in the wait and see are all withdrawing, and this withdrawal has become a big rout.
Cascuway had no choice: "We retreat to the forest camp and organize the team to find another way!" He issued the retreat order, but the army was fleeing.
Confidence collapsed and the team broke up, and Cascuwe had to lose again in shame. Of course he would not admit his fate, he could gather more manpower, and he still had a chance of winning.
The Ross people wanted to chase, but the reindeer were tossed so hard, they were animals with amazing endurance, but they couldn't do it a few times in a short burst, and then they would lose their strength.
Telavis was very sorry, standing on the sleigh looking at the runaway back and roaring: "You can run away! Fools! You Karelians are so weak and only worthy to be slaves!"
At least Telavis could not have imagined that the Karelians, who used to be called stronger than the Tavastias by the Corvins, were so awkward~www.readwn.com~ The reason is very simple, all because of Ross. The principality is too powerful, and it is actually a full-scale tycoon of the Baltic Sea who abuses food in the Arctic Circle.
The other party escaped very quickly, and more than a hundred brothers chasing after him was a rare opportunity.
The guards of the fortress of Bear Ji Town were happy to appreciate a wonderful war, which made them more confident and full of confidence. If everyone is worried that the card army’s strength will not take the initiative to take the challenge out of the city, the enemy’s ugliness has been shown to the full. The guards now feel that all of them are out of the city to fight each other, and they can even arrogantly declare: "You two thousand people are our four hundred. Surrounded by people."
The Centurion and his close comrades were not overly pleased with the victory. They confiscated a batch of inferior arrows and melee weapons. It is not surprising that the arrow clusters were bone fragments. The spearheads were also bone fragments and the number of iron weapons. Rarely, this is too challenging the perception of the Ross people.
Will Odin be satisfied with defeating enemies of this level? They use animal bones and teeth as weapons. Bears and wild boars also use teeth as weapons. In a sense, the enemy is not a human being, but a beast. Hunting.
Looking at the fortress and the guards again, it's hard to say...
