Chapter 26: The Decision Of The White Tree Family

Although the Svig have some resistance, there are also smart people who judge the situation.

The Svig people of Novgorod will not always be fat sheep to be cut. In this city where many big families and several small families gather together, the attitudes of the major families towards the Rus tribe are very different.

Among them were several families, who knew that even if all the families united, they would not be able to defeat the brave and brave Ross Berserkers.

Rather than fighting against the Rus, it is better to cooperate.

In the face of the absolute strong, the weak still have a path of servants to choose from. Of course, this kind of initiative to choose humble behavior makes other big families very resisted. What is the use of resisting? It is not that Novgorod has not resisted, and now facing the Rus people who have been raised more and more powerful by themselves, Nuo Does Fugorod still have the courage to fight?

Around Novgorod City, a large family manor, more than 2,000 people live here to form a huge settlement.

Many settlements merged into Novgorod, the most powerful family formed the main body of the city, and other lower-level families were located near the core of the small-scale city.

There are five big families in Novgorod. Among them is the Bella Leka family, which originally means "white tree". The core of their family is a birch forest very close to the main city of Novgorod. Hence the family name of the forest.

The family does not have a surname, or they have no concept of a surname in this era.

The source of the family is an ancient clan, they themselves have forgotten a lot, only know that the tribe migrated north to this place, settled in a white forest (actually a birch forest), reclaimed the land and built a manor to live in together. Therefore, when talking with outsiders, they sometimes claim to be from "Baishu Village", which already has the prototype of forming a surname.

This is a big family, with two thousand men, women and children, but it is still slightly smaller than the nearly four thousand people of the first family "Pine Needle" Sosnowa Heka family.

Even so, the Bellaleka family is the second family of Novgorod.

Novgorod does not have its own king, and various families migrated here a long time ago. Many of them have forgotten their ancestors, and only know that this place is called Novgorod, which means "new big city". This settlement.

The White Tree Bellaleka family realized that the Rus people who came twice a year, their leader's attitude towards Novgorod was changing.

After all, the Russ brought more and more amber, and the family carried out some polishing and processing, and formed a caravan to sell to people in Smolensk, or people further south, can obtain greater wealth.

Since the leader of the Rus people brought a large bag of amber this time, and asked to adore his wife for the young man of his tribe, after some deliberation, the White Tree Bellaleka Manor decided to "take the risk".

It's not that Amber's eyes widened when he saw the money, but that they understood some long-term issues.

Twenty of the thirty girls sitting on the boat are from "White Tree Manor".

The young people of Baishu Bellaleka Manor are relatives to each other, and they basically do not marry each other, so the girls of the family marry foreigners, and they understand that this is fate since they were young.

But to marry those Rus who are good at looting, that is, those Varyags, the girls who are chosen are very worried.

It was the patriarch Rigus who made up his mind, and the most respected group of people in the manor, after negotiation, decided that this sudden marriage must be done.

In particular, Ligus, this young elder thinks very long-term. It is impossible for the manor to end the looting of the Rus by physical means. Even if the counterattack by force can be successful, the retreating Rus will attract other Varyag tribes. Counterattack, victory is the beginning of a greater disaster.

In order to avoid disaster, further cooperation with the Rus is a reasonable choice

The young men brought by the leader of the Rus are handsome and promising,

The girl of such a family is not married to an inferior person. This situation makes Rigus, who is aggrieved in his heart, feel better. As he heard the news and understood the situation, Rigus's mentality changed rapidly, because Otto, the leader of Ross, made a promise to fully accept them as part of the tribe.

But for these girls, they are the parties, and many people seem to have been abandoned by the family just because of some gems, and have to be the wives of pirates.

Along the way, many girls are not happy, especially after the wedding in their hometown, relatives in the hometown have confirmed that they are already Russian wives. After losing the protection of his hometown, after a long journey, he will enter the mysterious realm, become a part of the Ross tribe, and give birth to children for them.

How could they be willing to leave their hometown if they were not forced to? !

The long aircraft carrier is tedious and risky, and to make matters worse, the sky is cloudy on the return route, and it will soon begin to snow.

Simply Otto thoughtfully prepared some furs, so that people returning to the flight could enjoy enough warmth.

People are really warm, but if they sit still for a long time, a thin layer of snow must fall on people's bodies.

Because of the ships of the Viking family, those are ships with a high degree of mobility in this time and space. In order to enhance their mobility, the crew sacrificed a lot.

There are many types of longboats, UU reading www.uukanshu. com Different tribes also have their own unique improvements.

The longboats of the Ross tribe are more slender, and they also make a fuss about the oars, that is, the blades are wider, which makes the boat go faster.

Having to get to their homeland before the water freezes, as the fleet leaves the Gulf of Finland, they begin their full northward journey.

Otto knew that this time the clansmen were really waiting, so he would please them with more wealth.

The fleet formed a ring formation, with the widest heavy-duty longships at the core, and ordinary longships guarding it.

With experience, the leaders of each ship gradually estimated that they were very close to their hometown.

Their estimates are very correct!

Soon, some fishermen who insisted on going to sea despite the snow, cruising as far as possible from Roseburg, in order to meet the returning fleet earlier and lead them home as guides.

The fleet successfully met the fishing boat, and even with the wind and snow, everything went smoothly on the way home.

In the wind and snow, a mighty fleet finally showed its own unique phantom!

According to Viking tradition, not all longships have dragon head statues installed. Because ships are often personal property, and everyone has power, they will decorate the ship to show it.

There are many strongmen in the Ross tribe's fleet who have made contributions in previous battles. In terms of wealth distribution, these people reasonably get more. At this time, the individual had more wealth to decorate the ship, such as installing various bow decorations, and printing the family's "oar" totem on the sail.

In the gray white world, any abnormal color is very conspicuous, even if it is blue.

Some people with good eyesight saw the rapidly approaching behemoth. After seeing the blue pattern, the good news quickly spread throughout the tribe.
