Scavenging vultures hovered over the blood-stained battlefield, and as long as you look up at the sky, you can see that the vultures are densely layered in the sky, even obscuring the sun, and you can't see the edge at a glance.

On the battlefield, Odo was preventing the soldiers from cleaning up the battlefield, looting the booty, and capturing the prisoners, in this battle as many as 6,000 soldiers were killed and wounded, of which the Normans were less than 300, and the rest except for the nobles and knights who fled early, most of them surrendered on the spot because of demoralization, and a few bold enemy troops fled out.

"Mephistopheles, I order you to lead your troops to search the surroundings to see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net." Otto to Mephistopheles in front of him. Feng. Hohenzollern ordered.

"Lord Odo, this character is best executed by cavalry, most of our army is infantry, and it is not effective to search for routs in the vast wilderness." Mephistopheles hurriedly refused, this was a chore, not only did it have little oil and water, but it was also very dangerous, in addition to the routs in the wilderness, there were swamps, beasts and poisonous insects, which could kill his soldiers at any time.

"Lord Mephistopheles, please don't worry, I won't let you have any worries, I will keep your share of the spoils of this war, if there is a shortage, I will pay out of my own pocket to make it up for you, and I will let your brother Albert supervise the spoils later." Otto looked generous, but the tone of his mouth could not be refused.

Now that Otto has said this, if he is rejected again, it will be Mephistopheles who is deliberately disobedient to his orders and wants to lose his name, and his methods are not in vain.

"Yes, Lord Odo, I'll take someone to hunt down the remnants of the enemy." Mephistopheles reluctantly bowed in response.

After explaining at this time, Otto happened to meet Robert's returning cavalry, so he greeted him with a smile, hugged and touched Robert's cheeks to each other, and asked passionately: "Robert, how is this harvest?" Seeing that your interest is so high, there must be some good news. ”

"Brother, you guessed it right, I brought you here Chief Kangyituo and his nobles, all of whom I have captured, and are now accompanying me, and they will arrive later." Robert held his head up proudly and spoke of his exploits in front of his brother Otto.

"At that time, I led a group of people to chase them for a real day, and finally caught up with Kang Yituo and a group of Slavic nobles.

It was when I happened to see the voice of Chief Conyito, and I immediately rode after him, and when I could see his frightened face.

When he was only about ten meters away, I took an axe from the saddle and threw it at the horse under him.

I know that a living Chief of Conyito is much more useful than a head, and at least it can add a lot of color to our triumphal style. ”

"Well done, Robert." Otto patted him affectionately on the shoulder and said, "This time you are really in time for us to loot the booty after the war and collect the prisoners, I have ordered you and the Sandwich Baron Gerard to lead people on this mission." ”

Packing up the spoils, this is an extremely rich fat difference, and such a profitable thing naturally has to be done by his cronies and younger brothers.

"That's great, I'll take someone to clean up the battlefield." Robert pumped his hands excitedly and shouted with a smile.

After saying that, Robert swept towards the battlefield with his knights.

The war arguably changed dramatically on the Baltic coast, with the Normans defeating Chief Conyito and his army of Slavs in Stralsund, and the surrounding hungry wolves – Denmark, Saxony, Brandenburg and Poland – formally declaring war on the Mecklenburg tribes, all sending their main forces to march on Mecklenburg, without any regard for the consequences of robbing the Normans of victory.

Perhaps in their opinion, the Normans were thousands of miles away, and the expeditionary force could not be sustained for long, so the Normans did not pose much real threat to them.

The Kingdom of Denmark and the Duchy of Saxony aimed at the Counts of Mecklenburg and Lübeck, the Principalities of Brandenburg aimed at the Willlebs and Wolgastber, and Poland aimed at recovering all of Mecklenburg and Pomerania.

It can be said that these forces did not give enough respect to the victors at all, and left the Normans with some scraps, how could Otto and Robert endure this.

The next day the Normans marched to Rostock, capturing the port of Rostock and a large area of the surrounding territory, and then marching west along the coast, aiming at Mecklenburg.

The Normans were not afraid to go toe-to-toe with the Danes and Saxons, but the Danes and Saxons opposite them were timid and fearful of the Normans.

When they heard the Normans appear before them, both the Danes and the Saxons hurriedly packed up their things and retreated like the wind.

In this way, the Normans followed behind them and occupied Mecklenburg.

With the owner of the chieftain and a group of nobles in hand, the cities and castles owned by the Mecklenburg tribe all opened the gates and gave up the keys to the gates as a sign of submission.

Less than five days after the Battle of Stralsund, the Normans had occupied the coastal and inland central parts of the Duchy of Mecklenburg with the exception of Walgasterb, while the surrounding Denmark, Saxony, and Brandenburg all retracted their minions and sent envoys to Odo to express their desire for goodwill and peace.

Otto understood that these kings and princes were afraid of the might of the Normans, and he made friends with him, and if he encountered any defeat, even the slightest setback, the Danes, the Saxons, and Brandenburg would roar and pounce on them like hungry wolves.

However, Otto was still willing to accept the desire to make peace with them, and at least not to go to war with them until Mecklenburg and Pomerania were completely pacified.

Of course, regardless of their attitudes, there was no room for compromise in the matter of land grabbing, and the Normans at this time controlled most of the territory near the major cities and towns near the coast, while part of the inland territory was divided between these powers, and they were competing for the central region of Mecklenburg and the kingdom of Walgasteber.

Otto and the Normans had no friendly temper against these scavenging vultures, and if the city was not occupied by an opponent and the other party was unwilling to give it up, the Normans would use force to expel them, not worrying about the outbreak of war.

The more unscrupulous the Normans were, the more respectful their opponents became, so much so that when the Normans arrived at the castle they had just captured, they would obediently give up the castle without the Normans opening their mouths.
