Chapter 198: Cutscene (I)

Burning city, cry out of pain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

“…… What a damn enemy! I'm going to strip them all of them, carve them with a blood eagle, and then stab their heads into a wooden pole and throw them out to feed the wolves!" ”

"Patriarch, please calm down!"

Inside the candle-lit, heavily guarded castle, at the highest point of the castle, which resembles a watchtower, Haugesund looks at the burning city and the weeping harbor in front of him, and his heart is dripping blood!

It's not the city that's burning, it's his ten years of hard work and hard work, it's the foundation of his hegemony, it's the pillar of his Grand Viking dream – it's all gone.

Sadness is deep and crazy, how many decades can there be in life? How many more years can there be like before, who can let him develop? You know, the era of big fish eating small fish has passed, and what is being staged in Norway now is the three-kingdom hegemony.

Every time he thinks of this, Haiyugesong can't wait to take his clansmen out directly, killing one is enough to kill two and earn one, and fight to the death here!

"Patriarch! We've just lost a city! It's not a big deal! Without Bergen, we still have tribes, and we still have tribes, and more than 20,000 tribesmen in the tribe are still waiting for your leadership! ”

It's a pity, if Hai Yugesong really led people to kill him, then the little Tang Grand Duke would be really happy. It's a pity that at such times, there will always be one or two people around each lord who can read words and emotions to give the lord a step down.

"I'm fine, don't worry, how's the situation?"

Shaking his head, Haugesson shook out all the trance in his mind, and then turned to his staff and asked.

"The situation is not bad, the withdrawn warriors, plus the strong men who were forcibly pulled along the way, we have almost four hundred people in the castle, and because of the enemy's burning and looting in the city, now the people's hearts have settled down, and they hold the ...... temporarily."

"I'm not asking this again!"

Haugesson roared irritably again, his original calm attitude, and the aristocratic demeanor he had deliberately learned had long since he didn't know where to throw it, and the staff officer was choked up, and then he swallowed everything he wanted to say just now into his stomach, and said again:

"Enemy...... The movement of the enemy is very strange, and looking at the way they loot, it seems that they have no intention of staying for a long time, but they are burying the corpses again and maintaining order, to be honest, I already have some incomprehension; Moreover, the enemy did not have many troops at the gate of the castle, and it seems that they have no intention of storming us......"

"Can we take advantage of the enemy's lack of concentration and counterattack?"

I didn't notice what the staff officer was saying before, but as soon as I heard 'there are not enough troops at the gate of the castle', Haugesund's mind suddenly came alive - this is not without precedent, let the enemy into the city first, wait for the enemy to burn and loot, the soldiers are scattered, and when the vigilance is at the lowest end, and then suddenly attack, it can often be fatal with one blow!

But......

"Patriarch, you better give up this plan." The staff officer said with a wry smile: "Even if you look at it from here, it is only a small army that has caused a disturbance in the city, and the enemy's large army still maintains formation and discipline; Besides, this is not as good as outside the city, because of the snow outside the city, the cavalry can't gallop to their heart's content, this is the city, the flesh and blood of the soldiers, no matter what, it can't compare to the collision of iron horses! ”

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then what do you want me to do!"

Haugesund now has the intention of cutting this staff officer, and he is really angry to the extreme, people are difficult to dismantle, can't you say something good! As for the staff officer, he was originally a person who was good at observing words and feelings, and when he saw the appearance of Haiyugesong, he immediately stopped talking, but in his heart, for the first time, he was dissatisfied with the patriarch who was originally extremely respected.

But what else could Haugesund ask just now? What else can be done? Wait, wait for the little Tang Grand Duke to finish preparing and the army to set off, and then just take in the dilapidated Bergen with peace of mind - after all, as I said before, the little Tang Grand Duke has no intention of staying here at all.

"What the hell? Get it out of front of me! ”

In Bergen, in the barracks built in the town square, it's a different story.

"As you can see, this is the food of the Vikings for the winter: canned fish. To tell you the truth, the soldiers really can't talk about this thing! ”

Looking at the dizziness above, the little Tang Duke was almost stunned by the strange smell of this canned fish. With a straight face, Wade Knight couldn't wait to throw the barrel containing some kind of suspicious food out of the tent, and shook his arm twice vigorously, as if to throw away all the strange smell.

It's just that Knight Wade's side is comfortable, the barrel was thrown directly outside, fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, and a strong strange smell broke out instantly, like some kind of smelly and fragrant mixture, and the two soldiers standing guard in the tent didn't hold back, and directly bent down and vomited.

…… Well, it's not that exaggerated; But Scandinavia's notorious reputation for canned fish, which can almost be used as a biological weapon, is not to be faked.

"Can't we find any more food than this thing?"

Grand Duke Xiao Tang stared at Knight Wade with a resentful gaze, the sudden explosion of poison gas bombs just now, if he hadn't been quick with his eyes, he would have pulled the tent at once, and now the three people in the tent (and Insider Lis) would have fallen to the ground.

Knight Wade laughed dryly, and then he uncovered everything just now, and then replied:

"No, even if there is, it is only a small part, not enough for the consumption of three thousand troops for ten days, after all, this is Scandinavia, and the grain tax has just been collected, except for the food you asked for enough food for the poor, we really can't find much."

Wade Knight is telling the truth, the time when the little Tang Grand Duke came is really a little inappropriate, this is not Munster, only 50% of the grain tax is charged, and Haugesund has to collect 70% of the grain tax. As soon as the harvest was over, the slaves who served as farmers were basically forced to drink the northwest wind, and if they wanted to survive, they had to eat the smoked canned fish.

"Okay, the chow mein we brought...... In addition, you can catch some marine fish when sailing, which should be enough. ”

The little Tang Grand Duke sighed, and said helplessly, let him snatch food from the mouths of the poor, and he couldn't do it anyway when he had just finished slaughtering the city and the blood on the soldiers' knives hadn't dried up.

Whether you call him hypocritical or weak, a person must always retain some persistence. Duke Xiao Tang himself understands very well in his heart that once he really doesn't let go of the food for the poor to live, then he will really say goodbye to the past.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, what about the rest? Have we found a suitable replacement for our bow and crossbow? ”
