Their own warriors jumped back into their longship, which went farther and farther away, leaving behind the longship, which could only move slowly by hand, and the roar of its crew. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Well, your eldest brother's boat is moving again, and he must have been the one who cut the sails just now. ”

"Of course, my eldest brother is the most powerful warrior in the tribe. ”

"Next up must be the raider, oh no, another longship has crashed in. ”

Another longship rammed into it, and the short man's momentum was suppressed again, and the warriors of both sides fought together again, and the cargo ship was getting closer and closer to the other team's fleet. At this time, a large group of sparks appeared on the surface of the sea.

"Wow, there are so many ships, it's a dumping of the nest. ”

The short man counted the outlines of the longship, "18, 19, 20, 21... That's right, it's really a nest. ”

"Okay, get ready, it's our turn soon. ”

As the crew of the cargo ship suffered heavy casualties, more and more harpoons were nailed to the hull, and the speed of sliding was getting faster and faster, and it was about to be dragged out of the protective range of the long ship.

The short man was furious when he saw this, but he gritted his teeth and ordered, "Abandon ship!" and he himself threw his axe again, cutting off the sails of the enemy ship, and his own ship quickly retreated from the battlefield. Other fighters who had their sails cut off by the enemy, or who had not been able to escape for a while, quickly jumped out of the sea and swam towards the nearby friendly longships. And the only remaining sailors on the cargo ship did not hesitate to go to sea, as if giving up hope.

The enemies seemed to have spotted their retreat, and cheers rang out over the sea. Victory, for the war-hungry Nord warriors, was an unparalleled honor! The uncontrollable cargo ship slid into the fleet without resistance, and there were bursts of excited voices one after another, probably discussing which unfortunate person had been tricked into boarding the ship, and how much the cargo was worth. The longship unconsciously converged on the cargo ship.

"Well, there's a big ship over there heading towards our cargo ship. ”

"Big ship, where... Oh, this is ... ”

"What is it?"

"It's their Yar's ship!, that bastard is so greedy that every loot passes through his hands before it is distributed among the others. ”

"Wow, this one made a fortune. ”

"Indeed, we ... ”

"You can try. ”

Dressed in leather and iron armor, Yar pulled the longship to the side of the cargo ship, jumped on board with a few elite warriors, and with a wave of his hand, several Nords carried a large crate.

Merchants who take the waterway generally like to load their goods into crates or barrels, and then transport them on the ship, which can not only prevent the damage of seawater to the goods, but also after the goods accidentally fall into the water, some of the less heavy ones can also float on the surface of the water, which is convenient for salvage.

Yael looked at the crate, nodded in satisfaction, and ordered the guards to open the crate. The guard picked up the crowbar, pried open the box with a thud, and froze in place. Yar's eyes widened too, for there were no treasures in the box, but clumps of straw, still soaked, and judging from the smell, it was the tung oil used to waterproof the sails!

Before Jarl could give the order, arrows with Mars shot out of the retreating longship, densely packed like meteor showers. Jarl and his guards raised their shields or took cover, and no one had time to think about the cargo.

Boom! Flames burst forth, quickly engulfing everyone on board. The splashing sparks drifted along the sea breeze to the sails of the nearby ships, and once again burst into flames. The Nords, who had just been immersed in the joy of victory, immediately blew up and rowed to avoid the burning boats, but the Nords, who had no command, quickly collided with other like-minded companions, or were ignited by the fireboat drifting with the waves, and the roars, the angry curses, the desperate roars, and the screams of pain suddenly followed.

Then, the longship, which had just retreated, suddenly turned around and went straight for the chaotic fleet. At the same time, dense sparks were lit on the sides of the fleet, and at the mouth of the sea, the sparkling fires were becoming clearer and clearer. The disorganized fleet suddenly became even more disorganized, and the Nords, who had lost Jarr, were unable to regroup their forces at all, and could only flee like headless flies.

Soon, the two sides met again, except that the short man did not lead the fleet to kill, but used his bow and arrow to shoot from a distance, while the Nord warriors on the ship desperately swung their axes and cut down the enemy who wanted to climb onto the longship. The fleet on the other side was also approaching very quickly, still shooting arrows, but on this side they were using crossbows, not bows and arrows, and the sparks at the mouth of the sea were getting closer and closer. Finally, the Nords, who blocked the access to the sea, could not bear it anymore, jumped ship, ran and ran, and the organization completely collapsed. The little man was not polite, and led the fleet in pursuit one by one, and by the way, he used bows and arrows to turn those Nords who fell into the water into real water ghosts.

Finally, when the sky was a little white, the battle came to an end. The enemy forces in this sea area have been swept away, and the rest have jumped ship and fled. However, considering the distance from the archipelago, it is estimated that they will be exhausted if they do not starve to death. A third of the enemy's more than 20 ships were burned down due to the foolish behavior of the people who had gathered together before, and the remaining one-third were damaged to varying degrees, but for Norton, this battle won more than a dozen longships, and also disintegrated the army of the rival tribe, and it was simply impossible to make any more money.

No wonder that guy can become a big businessman, Norton couldn't help but sigh, doing business with him is enough!

It was only now that the ship that had just emerged from the mouth of the sea was belated, and Norton couldn't help but smile dumbly when he saw the approaching ship. The fishermen in those small boats looked at the blood and corpses floating on the water with trepidation, and did not dare to approach Norton in helmets and armor, but those poor boats were full of torches, and from a distance they did look a little similar to a long boat full of warriors. He watched Mu's cargo boat slowly row past the side of the boat, and then threw a bag of dinars into the boat, and the fishermen immediately squeezed out a bright smile and kept bowing to Mu on the cargo boat. Indeed, the money was so easy to make that nothing was done, just drove the boat out for a walk, and got a bag full of dinars!

"You can pay for the hired boat!" Nodi couldn't help but laugh when he heard Mu say this.

Norton boarded the ship with his helmet in his hand, and his brother and patron were already waiting for him on board.

The wrinkles on his face squeezed the dense beard away, and it seemed to be a sincere smile, "Boss Mu, thank you so much, if it weren't for your tactics, we would probably suffer a big loss." ”

"Well, I'm also for my own business," Mu said with a smile, "After all, there is less familiar fleet, and the cost of taking the sea route will be much greater." ”

"Hey, anyway, you've saved my tribe this time. Nodi stretched out his hand, "Mr. Mu, you will be our Frost Swallow tribe's forever friend." ”

"You're so kind, I'm honored to accept the friendship of the tribe!" Mu shook Nodi's hand. Norton, on the other hand, patted Mu on the back and handed him a wooden bowl full of liquor. The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and drained the wine in the bowl. This is how the Nords use to signify friendship, simple and rugged.

"Let's go, brother," Noddy jumped into the longship first, "let's go solve the tribal problem." ”

"Great!" Norton then turned his head and said to Mu, "Hey, thank you again." Delayed your night, hopefully it won't make much of a difference. ”

"It's okay," Mu waved his hand, "I originally planned to leave this morning, and it's still early." ”

"That would be great. Norton nodded with satisfaction, turned around and ordered, "Valadi, Kotsha, you escort Boss Mu to Parabun, and, Derian, you serve the boss well, don't slack off!"

The young helmsman on the cargo ship nodded hurriedly, and his eyes were full of adoration when he looked at Mu.

The flotilla parted again, and each ship flew the banner of the Frost Swallow and sailed majestically and proudly towards its own course. Only the one-eyed dragon, still reluctantly looking at the blood-stained sea, sighed

"What a waste!"

After a sleepless night, even Mu, who often ran on the trade routes, was inevitably a little sleepy, and when he had just vaguely expressed that he was a little tired, the sailors on the cargo ship diligently laid furs beside the cargo box, respectfully asked him to rest, and he himself drew his axe and stood upright on the side, standing guard for him.

Mu couldn't laugh or cry, a bright axe was on the side of his head, how do you want to sleep by yourself, these fools!

Last night's battle had clearly allowed him to establish a high reputation among these Nords, and in the face of a ship twice his size, not only did he not rout, but annihilated them all, which was an incredible miracle in the eyes of the Nord warriors. And Mu, naturally, knows what is going on, it was all up to luck to be able to fight like that last night. He simply wanted to cause a little chaos for the enemy, and then take the opportunity to slip away with his cargo. As a result, I didn't expect the effect of the fire attack to be so good, and the opponent's Yar also made a cameo appearance in a handful of roast pigs very cooperatively, which led to such an exciting victory.

He persuaded the Nord warriors who were standing guard for him to leave, and then he lay down comfortably on the fur mattress.

Close your eyes, enjoy the cool sea breeze and the warm sun, and listen to the regular sound of the waves under the plank, although the iron net is still a little rusty after the fur is padded, but it is also a leisurely time.

The Nord cargo ships were very different from the Swadian sailing ships of the Elis, not only smaller, but also more primitive in structure. It is easy to imagine that the main body of such a cargo ship is an oversized longship, and two smaller longships are placed on either side to maintain balance. The three ships are connected by wooden frames, then laid with wooden planks to form a grid to support the role, and then cover the wooden planks with a layer of iron mesh to count as a deck, and finally raise the ship's side to close in the bow, and support the mast on the big ship in the middle, and the cargo ship is completed. As mentioned before, this kind of ship structure is quite simple, and even a rough man from Nord can build it smoothly. However, although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs. This kind of cargo ship can raise the spinnaker twice, and the hull is not heavy, even if you count the cargo, the speed of sailing is quite good. Although the stern of the boat was not sealed, a diagonal plank was pulled out and protruded into the water, from which the people of the boat could safely jump into the water, unlike jumping from the side of the boat, which would have likely crashed into the boat or lost their balance by the waves that broke the boat. In general, it is very convenient for both salvage operations and abandonment of ship to escape.

Of course, the simplicity of the structure also has its drawbacks, that is, the ship does not have any cabins or anything like that, and all the space is open-air. As it is now, a warm and sunny day on the sea is of course fine, but in the event of a storm, it will be fine. Let's not talk about the people, not to mention that the goods are soaked in rain, and it is possible to turn the goods into the water when it is bumpy. However, at this time, the characteristics of the convenience of salvage appeared, although it was very dangerous to salvage in the storm, but how could the brave Nord warriors be afraid of these, and generally tied a rope and went down. Therefore, Mu Ye has always been slandering this design, which is really worthy of a Nord-style ship, and the designer probably did not intend to transport the goods to the destination unscathed.

Although his limbs had been completely relaxed, Mu still found that his brain showed no signs of braking. Maybe it's because my brain turns too much, but now it's really not easy to say that it's empty. "It's a good idea to sort things out now. Mu said to himself. His mind quickly jumped from the strengths and weaknesses of the Nord cargo ship to the basic structure of the Ilise galleon, then to the Svadia Red Shirt Knight, and then to the Knight Princess, who had been assassinated two years earlier. To tell the truth, this heroic princess was one of the few women he respected, but it was a pity that she died young. I remember that when the knight princess Asona was buried, he happened to come to Suno with a caravan and placed a handful of concubine Onis, which is said to be Princess Esona's favorite flower, in her coffin. When I think of the knights, I naturally think of the knights, I think of the knights, and I naturally recall the eugenics that Professor Sanders talked about, and said that the euphoric flower... Agna's face naturally appeared in front of Mu's eyes. And the task assigned by the old professor made him cry and laugh again.

However, his mind moved, if the sword was genuine, Agna's identity would be incredible. There are only two ways to get the sword of this legendary knighthood. First, her family does have a deep heritage. This kind of antiquity can be obtained when it is said to be in hand, and it is definitely not something that ordinary people can do. As for who has this strength, Mu secretly thought to himself, at least he has to be a figure above the duke, and the family must have certain relationships and connections. Judging by her hair and eyes, Aigna was a pure-blooded Raldian, and while she may have some Virgian blood, she was also so thin that she couldn't be seen at all in appearance. Unlike Mu himself, he has one-sixteenth Rhodok blood, so his hair color is a little darker than Agna's.
