The Rise of Iceland

Vol 2 Chapter 36: slave

     Hadar and Hagrid saw that Hudick had finally shocked the soldiers with violent means, and they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts and no longer felt nervous.

  Actually, Hadar, Hudik, and Hagrid are not the kind of noble saints, nor are they high-quality leaders who do not occupy the masses, let alone the idea and ability to build an army that does not disturb the people and does not rob.

   The reason why the three of them could not accept the **** of Indian women by the white slave spearmen, and thunder was furious, was actually because they were worried that their soldiers would contract syphilis, which would eventually kill most of them.

After Columbus discovered the New World and returned to Europa, a large number of diseases similar to leprosy but seem more terrible began to appear in Spain, France and other places. This terrible virus is transmitted through sexual behavior and has a terrible mortality rate. Even if the patient does not die. It will be extraordinarily painful, so people's awe of the terrible disease called syphilis brought back from the Americas by Columbus is second only to the Black Death.

   In fact, later studies have shown that whether syphilis was really brought back to Europe by Columbus from the American continent is still to be questioned. However, the fact that Indians were carrying syphilis was indeed verified from the examination of bones.

   Hadar, Hudick, and Hagrid didn’t understand what syphilis was, and they didn’t understand whether syphilis was actually on the Indians, but they absolutely did not dare to try, and they were even more unwilling to use their lives to test whether the rumors were accurate.

Hudick severely punished more than 20 white slaves who had raped Indian women in front of everyone, in order to remind them not to touch Indian women, so as not to contract syphilis and ruin their life, and also infect everyone. risk.

   After Hudick's severe punishment of the white slaves, the enthusiasm and joy of victory of the Viking army were diluted and suppressed.

Hadar also expressed support for Hudik, and finally ordered that the spoils, captives, military exploits, etc., obtained by each of Iceland belong to their own. Half of the spoils and captives of the white slaves can also become private property. If you don't want it, you can return to the country. After Root City turned over the offset contract time, this was Hadar's reward for the heroic fighting of the white slaves.

   After speaking about the decision, the white slaves all cheered.

  Because the white slaves are not admitted to have private property before the end of the contract, the contract owner can deprive the white slaves of all their wealth if they are strict.

   In the same way, the wealth that a white slave grabs from fighting with his master must also be turned over to the master.

But having said that, if you really do this, you will completely offend the white slaves. Leaving all of them to the white slaves will also make them self-inflated. Hadar seems to have really explored the leadership experience and showed the generosity of the benevolent leader in a timely manner without thinking. , Let the white slaves get half of the wealth gained from plunder.

The white slaves were happy and grateful to Hadar, and at the same time felt that they deserved it, and felt honored. This premise was also because the white slaves were able to grab something, or because the militia was strong, and the militia was strong. The strength is due to the long-range fire suppression of 30 musketeers and the close protection of 110 pairs of plate armor. This result is entirely due to the leader of Hadar.

Hadar glanced at the darker and darker sky, and ordered the life to cook, and then led the people to finish the meal and arrange for the night. More than 200 people were divided into three shifts and slept in several big houses in the core of the tribe one by one. .

   In order to prevent the slaves from escaping, the white slaves tied all the slaves together with ropes, and then they were guarded by dozens of soldiers on duty at night.

   By the next morning, Hadar and others woke up, feeling sore all over, and the strange environment was accompanied by the dead. They slept very uncomfortably and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

   So Hadar ordered the destruction of this savage tribe, and then led the captives and the spoils back to the city of Hroot.

When the sky was faintly bright, the city walled by the water had been ignited by a fire. Last night, hundreds of corpses in the tribe had been thrown into the lake by the white slaves, and the flames grew higher and higher. It illuminates the blood-stained land, and the air is full of a strong and pungent smell of blood. However, as the grass house is ignited in large quantities, black smoke diffuses to obscure the smell of blood, and the flames in the black smoke are getting bigger and bigger. Illuminated the bright sky.

   When the fire was blazing and the black smoke was rolling, Hadar had led more than 250 militiamen and 380 Beotuk slaves to leave the lake and forest with dead bodies on their way back.

On the way back, there were nearly 400 Indian savages, so the speed was much slower. It was not that the Indians were not walking fast, but the Hadar army used rope chains to tie up a large number of savages in order to save energy to prevent the Indian captives from escaping. As a result, they cannot move fast.

   It took a week for the Viking Legion to depart from the city of Herut and arrive at the Beotuk tribe, and one-third of the food in the car was lost.

The remaining food could not support the return of a huge team of more than six hundred people to Harut City, but in addition to the fur, the Indian tribe also found thousands of pounds of corn, cowpea beans, pumpkin seeds, corn, cowpea, and pumpkin seeds. They can also eat them, and Hadar ordered the white slaves to bring all these grains, enough for more than 600 people on the road to eat.

   Now is the season of crop growth, so the savage tribes have leftover rations. If you wait for more than a month, it will be the harvest season. By then, corn, cowpea, and pumpkins will all be harvested.

Wenlan’s latitude is too north, so the climate is not suitable for the cultivation of most agricultural crops, especially the northern part is close to the Arctic Ocean. The Arctic Ocean’s cold current is severely affected. Except for the hardest rye, almost no crops can be grown~www.wuxiahere.com ~The climate in the southern part of Wenlan is much warmer and humid because of the Caribbean warm current, so it is basically close to the Heilongjiang climate in the Far Eastern dynasty, and there are more varieties of crops that can be planted from spring to autumn.

The Beotuk people on Vinland Island are actually not good at planting. Most of them rely on hunting, fishing and picking gifts from nature. Later, they established close ties with the tribes of the western continent before they got pumpkins, corn, and cowpeas. The three sisters planted them.

   These three sisters need to be matched and planted in the Indians’ planting experience, interdependent, and then they will have a good harvest. The Indians do not understand the scientific principles and are purely empirical explorations.

   The leaders and warriors of the Beotuk people were killed by the white slaves. Even the adult males were mostly dead. The remaining men, women, old and young were shocked and became docile and obedient.

In order to better manage them, Hadar temporarily asked the two Indian young men, Blackstone and Amu, to manage nearly four hundred Beotuk slaves. Their language and culture were the same, which showed their benefits in less than a day. Hadar's orders to the Beotuks can be responded to and executed immediately, which makes Hadar's favor for the two young slaves, Blackstone and Amu, grow day by day.

   It was already the afternoon of July 31 when Hadar led more than 600 soldiers and prisoners back to the city of Groot.

   Hadar's Western Expedition in the summer of 1628 in the Julian calendar took 20 days and finally achieved a successful victory.

   There were no casualties among the 252 militiamen and auxiliary soldiers. One hundred and forty-nine Beotuks were killed and three hundred and eighty men, women, young and old were captured.

  As soon as this record was announced in Herut City, everyone cheered, and Hadar's prestige increased.
