Chapter 11: I Have Soldiers!
At three o'clock in the afternoon, it was getting dark.
Many of the North fishermen, who had finished their day's work, came to the market with their catches.
Occasionally, bartering is also carried out for farm goods from the farm.
In addition to the locals, you can sometimes see some foreign vendors with different accents, which is a lively scene.
"Come on, come on, freshly harvested mushrooms! Mushrooms are to be eaten in the mushroom month! ”
"Fresh and delicious mushroom soup! Drink a bowl now and go back all night! ”
"Whitefish and carp just hooked up from the ice cave!"
"How do you know I've caught a 60-pound barracuda?"
"Who asked you!"
"You're jealous of me, huh."
"You're ......"
"Fights and brawls are forbidden in the bazaar."
"Let's fight!"
"Come!"
"I'm a master fisherman, I'm as sharp as an osprey, you're a dog on the ground, and you're worthy of fighting me?"
"It's so hurtful, my heart is worried about you, your war sentences have no melody, you fool, don't come to offend me!"
......
Vondolph smelled the slightly fishy air and looked around for the goods he wanted.
As he passed by two people who were fighting to the point of red-facedness, Feng Daofu stopped and looked at it with interest for a while.
Fighting sentences are a tradition of Vikings who love poetry.
The two sides rhyme in a fancy way, and the person who can come up with the coolest, choke, and most rhyming wins.
Looking at it live, it feels a bit like a pair.
In this era when entertainment methods are not so abundant, watching Tang Bohu VS piercing intestines is equivalent to watching people K songs.
Many people are happy to eat melons, and the vendors don't sell mushroom soup anymore, they make a bowl for themselves, and shout when they hear the wonderful sentence: "Kill him!" ”
Vondolph also saw that there were soldiers who maintained order and were also among the melon-eating masses.
The silver armbands on their arms indicate the identity of their leader's personal guards.
Until someone shouted, "Hello, I'm going to use the scales of justice of the chief." ”
They reluctantly turned back: "Here we are." ”
Feng Daoff followed their silhouette and saw a wooden table with scales and other items placed on it, which was used to settle the weight dispute.
"The Scales of Justice ...... the Chiefs"
Vondolph was thoughtful.
The old P Club player, Feng Dolph can guess a lot of information from this little detail.
There is still time...... Vondolph moved on.
Xiao Maoluo followed nervously: "Master be careful." ”
Feng Dolph nimbly avoided the slippery and icy area in one step: "I hurt my hands, not my feet. ”
Little Mauro is a few years older than him, and she is still a precocious Slavic girl, but she has a bonus to movement speed and has more legs and feet than Little Mauroliso.
After going around in a half circle, Vondolph found a place to sell grain.
Traditionally traded by the Inos, there was a fixed bazaar in the town.
On a daily basis, he is responsible for the exchange of goods between the town and the surrounding farms, and the products are mainly handicrafts, agricultural products, and livestock products.
Every once in a while, there will be caravans from other places rushing over, and at that time it was really a big gathering, similar to the rush and Fengji that were once prevalent in my hometown.
Although the northern sea froze early, as long as there was profit, the merchant always had more ways than difficulties.
It's like Vondolph is now running into some foreign merchants buying grain.
Looking at this group of strong men in fur, Feng Daofu didn't feel like businessmen no matter how he looked at it.
Just looked at it for a while, and a strong red-haired man turned his head sharply.
Looking up, seeing that it was just a child, the strong man relaxed, muttered, and continued to bargain with the boss.
Feng Daofu asked Da Mao Luo in a low voice, "Do you understand what he said?" ”
Big Wool said, "It's not good. ”
Vondolph asked, "Do you know where they are from?" ”
"The accent is like southern, but ......," Vera hesitated for a moment, and whispered, "I always thought he looked like a Norwegian." ”
Norway?
Vondolph thought of the gray wolf for no reason, and thought of the unusual migration of the animals that Brooke had said.
The abnormal migration of animals will only be the squeeze of the living environment....... It can't be the Norwegian version of the War of Kings, right?
When he wasn't sure if it was, Vondolph assumed it was.
If it is really the War of Kings version, a group of Vikings are eliminated by the version and flee, in addition to the option of going to sea in the west, but there is also a route to Luleo Bay in the east......
Be cautious and prepare for the worst first.
Feng Dolph bought some things, brushed up some trading experience, and rushed home with Big Hair and Big Tooth.
By the time I saw my longhouse, it was completely dark.
The samarium knife order can't be done for the time being, and the wolf corpse has to find someone to do it, just as Surrey said that the neighborhood has something to discuss with him.
Vondolph went back to get his weapon first, and then went to find Surrey.
They all happened to be at the Surrey house.
After a few brief pleasantries, Sarri took the lead in sharing their thoughts: "We want to set up a patrol to protect the farmsteads from wild beasts. ”
Something to be expected.
All the peasants in a region themselves will be in each other's arms to protect themselves, and now it is only a step further.
Feng Daofu asked, "So you are looking for me and want me to participate?" ”
They nodded.
"Do you want me to support me with equipment?"
They shook their heads: "We all have round shields, hand axes, spears, and bows and arrows." ”
There is just no Viking sword.
Vondolph is not surprising either.
Although it is customary for the Norse to have any weapons and armor and to carry them at any time, allowing them does not mean that they can afford to buy them.
Only wealthy Norse warriors could wear classic Viking suits including helmets, shields, and swords, but due to the backward smelting technology, qualified swords were too scarce, and most of them were used as symbolic decorations for samurai.
The mainstream is still to use spears and shields, with single bows and axes.
Form a shield wall and defeat your enemies with a higher level of organization - Nomadic/hunter-fishing tribes like the Vikings and Khans have always relied on greater organization.
The fact that the Norse tribe can do it is also related to the poor land.
Because the yield per acre of land is not high, farmers cannot live in a single village.
They need to disperse and win by quantity, and then they form satellite farms with a high degree of autonomy.
The Norse family in a rural area is closely connected, and the children have grown up and lived together since childhood, and when they become adults, they crowdfund a dragon boat, and the tacit understanding is naturally far better than that of the rangers.
"There can only be one captain on a dragon ship, and if I participate, I want to be given command," Vondolph said. ”
They looked at each other: "Vote by show of hands?" ”
Maurizio Sarri was the first to raise his hand: "I've always wanted to fight alongside a real hero. ”
Others also raised their hands.
Only one person hesitated: "I don't have an opinion, it's just your arm, you can't ride a horse now, right?" ”
Vondolph thought of the medical expertise he had acquired.
Now is the opportunity to experiment.
"Ted, I can let you feel it for yourself."
"This ......"
Ted is a standard Norse farmer in his early sixties.
Not too strong, but not skinny either.
mentioned the spear and round shield, my wife was robbed, and I dared to compare my chest muscles with Odin, and asked me who has the beauty of the great god's chest muscles?
But God Odin is too far away, and the Black Prince is too close.
He hesitated.
Vondolph raised his left and right hands.
Someone, who was bleeding from the battle, said: "My dominant hand can't exert force, my left hand can't hold anything, only a pair of legs are left, are you afraid of me?" ”
Now Ted couldn't bear it anymore: "Just let me experience your divine power!" ”
Wrestling, boxing, archery and rock lifting are all daily pastimes for the North, so there are sand preparation fields nearby.
Before entering, Feng Dolph said: "The weather is cold, no matter what the result is, I will treat you to a glass of wine." ”
Ted thanked, "You're so generous. ”
"Activate Drinking Buff: Within 1 hour, Strength +1, Damage +10%"
Feng Dolph smiled: "I have always been generous and warm to people. ”
Looking at the smile on his face, Ted wondered if it would be bad for him to raise an objection.
is so generous to others, won't the loyalty to him in the future be hundreds of millions?
Ted Opinion +1
Vondolph felt the change in his eyes, but wasn't ready to let him quit.
Since ancient times, the military has been a place of high respect for authority, and it is necessary to show some strength to let them see.
Even if you agree with me, I just led the army, and I haven't tried to make an example of chickens and monkeys, so you have to make me feel refreshed.
"Come on, don't waste any more time."
Stepping on the sand, Vondolph shook his hands relaxedly.
Throw back and forth, left and right, walk and then shake the waist and hips, and the power line is relaxing.
It looks amazing.
Ted wasn't nervous.
The veteran warrior is ready, adjust his breath at his own pace and prepare for battle.
In the past, I didn't think about anything in battle, the shield wall listened to the command, and when I played wrestling with others, I saw the moves.
Looking at Vondolph now, Ted suddenly wondered: what would the Black Prince think before the battle?
"I'm hungry."
Vondolph thought to himself.
Maurizio Sarri as referee: 'Ready...... Begin! ”
呲~
Vondolph exerts force on the soles of his feet.
The flying sand had not yet fallen, and the root of his left palm had already gone straight to Ted's face.
This astonishing speed startled Ted's heart, and he subconsciously leaned back to dodge.
Call!
The sound of the wind swept in front of me, and the eyes were dry like the whistling of a blunt instrument.
Ted narrowed his eyes.
It was at this time that Vondolph used the trait - Life to Die.
Boom!
It was as if the sound of a heart beating heavily.
Time seemed to slow down, so slow that he could even observe Ted clenching his teeth.
Trismus is a contraction of the masticatory muscles of the jaw that holds the mandible in place, representing the involvement of the face in maintaining postural balance.
Why grit your teeth to promote balance? Because of the strength of the waist, I am ready to use my legs!
Tick~
Time seems to be flowing again.
Ted was about to use his height to sweep his legs and hook down Feng Daofu, but as soon as he exerted his strength, he found that the person in front of him suddenly disappeared!
Before he could react, the knee socket of his calf was like being kicked by a horse, and his whole body lost balance and fell!
Vondolph didn't give him a chance to get up again.
The left foot socket wrapped around his neck, and the instep of the foot hooked the right foot socket.
Leg twist!
Ted struggles violently!
He began to want to climb up on the weight advantage.
But Feng Dolph's strength of up to 13 points after getting the temporary bonus made the leg twist far stronger than he imagined!
After a while, Ted slammed into surrender.
"Subdue a Norse Farmer, +3 Run"
Feng Dolph let go of him, feeling the faint pain in his right hand and the wound seemed to heal, but not to the extent that he thought it would get better immediately.
"Life: 90"
The panel response is not enough.
Vondolph probably guessed why.
I'm still hungry, and of course my health recovery is less than my limit.
The effect of being born to die is also very good.
The test was successfully completed...... Feng Dolph smiled and said, "How was the experience?" ”
Ted rubbed his neck, which was still aching, and said with palpitations: "It's like being entangled by an earthly python!" ”
"You're still not relaxed enough."
Vondolph said: "You rely too much on instinct when you fight. ”
"It may seem like you're getting more strength, but if you get too excited or angry in a real battle, it will affect your judgment, which will lead to defeat and death."
"The body and technique are important, the mind is also important, and the real warrior is actually calmer and smarter than the average person."
Vondolph carefully pointed out Ted's shortcomings.
He even spoke with analogies, which was very easy to understand.
The Norse farmers had a look of sudden realization, and their eyes began to show some admiration when they looked at Vondolph.
There was no longer any objection that he had been given command of the patrol.
"Battle Song: +20% Prestige Earned in Battle"
"10 Norse Farmers to join your party"
"Norse Farmer Lv1: This is the most basic combat unit of the Norse tribe, you only need to equip it to be promoted to Lv2-Norse Warrior"
"Activating Trait - Bravery, Boosts the Morale of the Norse Farmers"
"Activate the Specialty - Boost the Weak, Norse Farmers Gain a Little Experience"
"Activate Specialty - Strong, Norse Farmer's HP +5"
Finally there are soldiers, and finally a bit of a ride and slash.
Vondolph swept the last one with relief.
He paused, and in the last sentence, he still talked about the main points of the battle, and the next sentence seamlessly switched to the god stick mode: "Now that you are all my warriors, I will give you Valkyrie's blessings." ”
"Ted, you're going to be able to recover from the little injuries you just had now."
The Norse farmers' eyes were focused on Ted.
Ted shook his neck, his expression full of confusion: "I don't seem to have a bad neck?" ”
With the first example, the others have feelings.
"My waist is no longer sore!"
"My leg is sharp!"
"My butt doesn't hurt anymore!"
Well?
All eyes were on Sarri.
Sarri said: "What do you see me doing? Don't hurry up and worship the Black Prince! ”
Everyone's eyes looked at Feng Dolph again, and it had completely turned into worship.
"A wonderful flicker, Diplomacy +10"
"The morale of the Norse Farmers has been greatly boosted!"
