The Rise of Iceland

Vol 2 Chapter 37: Distribution of slaves

     Beginning in August 1628, the population of Herut City reached more than 1,300, and the number of white slaves and Indian slaves was nearly equal.

   Hadar returned to the city of Harut and began to honor and reward his Viking army members.

   Each of the Icelandic Musketeers received a man and a woman, two Beotuks as slaves, and a bounty of 100 DM silver coins.

   As for the White Slave Spearmen, they received a half-year contract time exemption and a material reward of 20 silver marks.

   White slaves, except for some Indian warriors, have reduced the extra contract time. Most of them have subtracted three months of contract time and received 5 to 10 silver marks as rewards.

Since the white slaves had to hand in half of the leather goods and slaves, and most of the white slaves handed in the remaining half of the savage slaves to offset the contract time, Hadar got nearly 300 Indian slaves and used 60 people as Icelandic muskets. There are more than two hundred people left in the hands of the soldier's reward.

Hadar gave an average of more than 200 savage slaves to his seven Atang masters, and the seven oarsmen received an average of more than 30 savage slaves per person. However, because the Vikings conquered the Beotuk tribe. Killed more than half of adult males, so the savages obtained were mostly females and teenage boys and girls.

   Olaf and Ulav are the sons of the leader, and the four of Hoskurd, Heine, Karhu, and Karm will not compete with them for slaves, so they can be the first to choose.

   Olaf randomly selected thirty-six or seven of them. Among them, there were only two adult males, 20 adult females, and the remaining fifteen were all children.

   Olaf ordered Pikku to manage 37 slaves, and allocated a piece of land outside the city for them to build their own houses.

The savage slaves of the original Wenlan did not submit to discipline, and spent a long time working out and fleeing at night, but the entire eastern part of Vinland Island was basically the sphere of influence of the city of Herut. The savage tribes also belonged to the relationship of rivalry and rivalry, and there was no tribe to rely on. The savages basically did not end well in the wild, either they were buried in the belly of the beasts or they were captured by the white slave militia to be tortured and beaten.

  In addition, in recent years, many people have been crushed and killed by diseases and heavy lives, so that the original two hundred savage slaves are behaved and numb.

Seeing the performance of the same kind of slaves, this made the seven oarsheads, Icelanders, and the 380 slaves under the white slaves dare not give birth to the thoughts of fleeing, especially the women and children have long been scared. Dare, become well managed.

The population of Herut City increased by three hundred and eighty as a result of the Western Expedition. The number of white slaves and savage slaves were close to the same, although the number of savage slaves only increased by less than 100 adult males and more than 100 women and girls. , But the team of slaves has indeed grown, and the construction of Herut City has also accelerated by 20%.

   An easy conquest made Hadar, Hudik, Hagrid, and others have a lot of confidence. Kadir, who had been in the city for 20 days, also yelled and led the soldiers to take the barbaric prisoners.

   And according to the captive's hinterland savage slave confession, Hadar and others also found out the reality of the savages in the hinterland of Wenlan, and their confidence doubled.

It originally came from the fact that the French discovered that Wenlan waters were a big fishing ground more than a hundred years ago, so they would land on Wenlan Island to rest and dry the fish. At the beginning, the intersection with the Beotuks only used small items on the boat, such as Knives, fire sickles, mirrors, glass balls, etc. were exchanged for the fur in the hands of the Beotuks. Later, it was discovered that the Beotuks did not have large tribes and aggressiveness, so they began to capture the Beotuks as slaves, and sometimes they would kill. they.

  The Beotuk people on the coast were attacked by French fishermen and could only escape into the mountains in a hurry. Then, due to contact with white people, they infected the white people with viruses, such as smallpox, flu, etc., which soon caused heavy casualties to the wild people on Vinland Island.

   One hundred years of time has slowly reduced the number of savages in Vinland Island from the original tens of thousands of people, and several powerful tribal alliances have also died out.

   Eight years ago, when Hagrid arrived in Wenlan, it was when the Wenlan savages recovered slightly. As a result, the savages on the southeast Niujiao Peninsula were still captured as slaves, so that the remaining people fled to the hinterland.

   Through the savages, Hadar and others learned that several powerful large tribal alliances with thousands of people in the hinterland had collapsed and disappeared due to decades of disease, resulting in only one alliance that seems to exist at present.

Knowing the limited resistance of the savages, Hadar and the others slapped their heads and decided to split their troops into the hinterland of Wenlan, sweeping from the east to the west as a whole, destroying all the savages, large and small tribes, and capturing the savage slaves until they swept the whole Vinland, unified the island and enslaved all the wild people.

   "If all goes well, maybe we will be able to rule the entire Wenlan before this winter!"

   Hadar waved his hand at the pre-war meeting organized in the castle and said vigorously.

   After the meeting, Hudik began to re-select males from the Icelanders and white slaves to enrich the team, preparing to expand the number of soldiers by a Tang.

   Because there were more than 300 slaves in the city of Groot, among them there were more than 200 strong laborers, this greatly reduced the pressure on Icelanders and white slaves, and liberated the productivity of many Icelanders and white slaves.

   Hudik relaxed some conditions this time, and finally selected 30 Icelandic men aged between 18 and 50 years old and 90 male white slaves aged between 20 and 40 years old, and then began to intensify training.

   After half a month of training, some basic Icelandic men can play well with the arquebus in their hands. Although the marksmanship is a little farther away than the old musketeers of another team, Hudik is satisfied overall. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

   The white slave spearmen have also been trained to look like they can do orders and prohibitions. Wearing plate armor is enough to sweep any Indian warrior.

In mid-August, Hudik and Hadar discussed and mixed the two regiments in chaos, and then the veterans and recruits were dispersed to form two regiments. Then Hadar, who was ready, ordered an expedition. The two regiments consisted of Hadar and Hudike. Hagrid and Kadir led by four people.

   Auxiliary soldiers are composed of the original 140 white slaves plus 140 savages slaves. Each of the two corps has a team of auxiliary soldiers carrying luggage and food.

   After Hadar and Hagrid left Groot with a militia force, there were only more than 80 Icelandic women and children and more than 800 slaves left in the huge new city.

It is Hoskurd and Yot who manage the entire city of Herut. The actual daily production and life and the construction of Herut city are still stable and stable and led by seven Atangs. Now the weather has entered the hottest. At that time, crops could no longer be planted, and people concentrated on logging, quarrying, fishing, and hunting, while women did logistical work such as boiling salt, pickling fish, curing meat, cooking rice, and sewing clothes.

Although the city of Hroot suddenly lost 500 males, there are still a large number of white slaves, savages and sturdy women who continue to sweat and sweat for the development of Hroot, so whether it is Ulav or Hoth Kurds feel that the city of Groot has not been affected in any way. There are still hundreds of pounds of food filling the warehouse every day, and thousands of pounds of wood and stone are transported to the square of Groot.

   There are only more than 20 horses and more than a dozen cows in the city of Herut. More than half of them were requisitioned this time. Fortunately, there is no farm work now, so the remaining dozen horses and three or four cows are enough to transport wood and stone.
