The Rise of Iceland

Vol 2 Chapter 47: The movement of the French

     Due to the increase in the population of the city of Herut, the Hunsail Clippers stayed on the Niujiao Peninsula to fish every day, relying on a large number of catches to supplement the food that the city of Herut is gradually unable to make ends meet. This time there are only five ships in the fleet.

   In order to load more people, the three armed merchant ships also unloaded the smallest nine-pounder guns, which happened to be pulled by the Hudick ox cart, and they fired a few shots to break their walls when they were preparing to attack the Bakkens Long Lake tribe.

After the five big ships left, Hadar sighed, looked at Hagrid with admiration, and said to Hudik and Kadir next to him: "In front of Hagrid, the strongest savages are also like a mouse. I think His iron-blooded wrists are more effective against wild people than my gentle way!"

  ...

Hadar, Hagrid, Hudiq, and Kadir led a thousand-man army from the middle reaches of the Kaixuan River (the later Whitebear River, named after Hadar wanted to win a battle) to the north, and then arrived at Hagrid near night. The previous temporary camp.

Pointing to the north in the night, Hagrid said: "I have already been explored. Going further north for about 250 miles is Bakkens Long Lake. The leader of the Beotuk tribe is in the northeast of Long Lake. angle.

According to my observations over the past two days, they seem to have realized our strategic purpose. Now all the tribes around Changhu are gathering and relocating there, and many strong warriors have also been transferred to the Changhu tribe. I guess it is now long. The population of the lake has reached four thousand people! "

Hudick sneered and said, "Ignorant savages! There must be savages in the tribes we wiped out in the north and south that fled to the vicinity of Long Lake, and then the Bakkens Long Lake Tribe knew that we were going to eliminate all the savage tribes, and then thought It is a pitiful worm to mobilize all the people under the Alliance in an attempt to resist us! Even if they rely on the Long Lake to temporarily support the rations of five or six thousand people, when it gets colder, when the lake freezes, these savages will still spread out to seek life, we If you don't beat him in time, the Long Lake tribe will be hollowed out by too many alliance members over time. I am afraid that many people will freeze and starve to death this winter!"

   When the three of them thought that it was true, Kadir laughed: "Perhaps they learned of our strength from the people who fled from other tribes, and they had to sacrifice to resist us."

Hadar snorted coldly, scratched his itchy scalp and said: "If we don't have enough strength, we can only let them go this year, but now these savages gathered in Long Lake are the best chance to be defeated by us in one fell swoop. With spears, artillery, plate armor, and the best soldiers on Vinland Island, you can win even against 10,000 savage warriors!"

Hadar's loud and loud words made the other three people firm their conviction, and then waited until the next morning to have dinner, the army of thousands packed up and left the simple camp, led by the white slave scout trained by Hagrid and headed north. The long lake slowly approached.

  Four days later, Hadar led an army to bypass the lakes in the south of Changhu Lake, which is still called Xiaolong Lake, and then arrived at the south bank of Changhu Lake and built a camp.

The long lake is shaped like an upper arc crescent, and Hadar’s camp is built on the inner side of the arc on the south bank, and further south there is an irregular long lake. Standing on the shore, you can clearly see the far northeast. There are faint villages on the shore of Changhu, and that is where the Changhu Tribe is located.

When you approach Changhu, you can see tribes of all sizes appearing in the field of vision. Some are old villages, and some are just newly built wooden houses. Five hundred savages and warriors conquered all these tribes along the way. The slaughter, but after ordering the tribal leaders to be loyal to Hadar, the "god", they seized their food, and led the leaders of various tribes to follow in the auxiliary army as slaves.

Now he is about to attack the Long Lake Tribe, and it is inconvenient to threaten too many savage slaves. Hadar intends to let the leaders of these tribes see with their own eyes how powerful the forces of the gods are, and see with their own eyes how their lord is destroyed. They completely surrendered.

  Although Hadar's army this time far exceeds the savages of various tribes, there are still some savages fleeing in the chaos, which has caused the Bakkens Long Lake tribe to have learned of the movement and location of Hadar's army.

   So that night, a small group of savage warriors approached the camp of Hadar's army under the leadership of two white wolf warriors, both to spy on the situation and to harass.

   Hadar camp had both savages and Icelandic and white slave militias at night. The enemy was spotted as soon as they approached. Then the white wolf warriors first reported to the two Icelandic Musketeers, and then quietly lurked.

   After a while, the team of savage warriors tried to reach into the camp to assassinate a few people, but was violently killed by the lurking white wolf warriors, and after a few shots, the battle ended.

The White Wolf warrior, headed by the warriors of the Bakkens Long Lake tribe, was shot and killed by Icelandic Musketeers, and the other was besieged and killed. The remaining warriors realized that the white man in the East had actually mastered the sky fire and the sky thunder, and they knelt instantly. Begging for mercy.

   Half an hour later, Hudick interrogated a few captive warriors in a large tent made of animal skins and wood, and then went to find Hadar.

"Hadar. Just now the warriors of the Long Lake tribe have all explained that there are now 5,000 people in their tribe, of which there are more than 3,000 males and warriors, and more importantly, their high priest seems to have occupied it. The French on the other side of the strait contacted. UU Read www.uukānshu.com wants to ask the French to help them! It is said that a French Musketeer will come tomorrow!"

   Hudik brought back a piece of bad news, which caused Hadar to wake up from the confusion in an instant, and then summoned Hagrid and Kadir, and the two discussed the news for a long time.

   Hadar quickly settled his mood, looked at Hagrid, and asked: "You have a lot of dealings with Quebec. Do you think the French will help the Beotuks?"

"It should be true! The Quebec fleet did not receive our fur goods four months ago. At that time, their captain was very angry. I think this time Champlain in Quebec also deliberately sent people to support the Beotuk people. For Champlain’s understanding, although he has the purpose of causing us trouble, his real purpose is to mediate the struggle between Vinland. After all, a unified Vinland Island is not in the interest of the French!"

   Hagrid thought about it and slowly said his thoughts. Everyone fell into deep thought. After a long time, Kadir asked, "Hagrid, how many French people are in Quebec?"

Hagrid thought for a while and said, "There are less than four hundred people. Quebec City seems to have only more than 80 whites and 400 Indian slaves. Europe."

   "There are not many people, we don't have to be afraid of him!"

Kadeer’s eyes were stellar and said: “Now America is a treasure land, with countless slaves and resources, vast land and inexhaustible timber, fur, and fisheries. In fact, we, the French and the British, It is a competitive relationship. As the immigration of British and French people increases, we are bound to have a war with them.

   I think it would be better to take advantage of our strength and their weakness to defeat them, let the British and French know that we Icelanders are not easy to mess with! "
