The land behind the forest, this land has now fallen into complete chaos.
The layout that the believers of the gods had laid out for many years was now in full force. The nobles and feudal lords who thought that this land had been completely tamed suddenly discovered that they were in a world of blood and fire, and there were countless angry aliens outside the barrier.
Christian farmers, and their numbers are increasing and becoming stronger.
The pagan cadres from the Veles Valley, according to the prior plan, encouraged and organized villages to resist and massacre the oppressors.
In this way, overnight, countless armed forces suddenly appeared on the land of Northeastern Russia, and these armed forces aimed their swords at the foreign exploiters who had followed Rostislav in recent years.
Caught off guard, many castles and noble manors were breached, and all the men inside were killed, while women suffered inhumane treatment and children were thrown to the ground and smashed to death.
These rulers suddenly discovered that the tamed cattle and horses were now resisting them, and were raiding their homes and killing their people. They were the ones who did these things before, but now they have become the ones being treated like this.
The farmers' anger against feudalization broke out. Who the hell wants these masters who ride on their heads to take life and death? These bastards deserve to die! This place does not belong to them, this place belongs to us!
More than half of the castles whose masters accompanied Rostislav on his expedition could not hold out for long under siege. After all, the masters and most of the soldiers in the castle had already left, and it was difficult for the remaining servants to hold on.
Those who are garrisoning in Rusj have never thought that while we are still looking forward to returning home and bringing the trophies to our families, our home and family are gone.
During those wars, the pagans obtained a small amount of food. The food was ripped out from under the peasants, and now it has been returned to its original owner.
That also makes the public less and less hopeful about resistance, because we realize that these warriors in iron armor cannot be defeated.
Lev’s Bulgar Gang—that was the name given by the peasants, and that name often made Lev feel that we were like gangsters—had obtained a huge amount of loot outside the crossing line, and our manpower was still expanding.
Very slowly it reached the scale of less than a thousand, and the number of people passing by fluctuated every day.
Except for the eight hundred hesitant heretics in Lev's headquarters, everyone else came because of the plundering and left because of the plundering. There were no people joining or leaving every day.
Lev also restricted those people. I know that it is possible to do that, but doing so would ruin the brand. Moreover, the manpower that has arrived now is still unusable. It is completely enough. I am too worried.
The pagan master enjoyed seeing the Christians and other fortresses being conquered. Also because of admiring that scene, Lev's mood improved a lot during that time. Those failures erased the haze of humanity to a certain extent.
It is the power of the Bulgar Gang and not just those. There are not many forces in the countryside who disobey Lev's orders. That is the embodiment of the power of that group.
These incited peasant war gangs also had the same fate. Some of them disbanded before attacking the walled city. Some of them followed the actions of the cadres who incited us. Some of them turned into weak bandits and ended up doing what they did.
... We have become nothing from the war gangs who obeyed the Bolgar Valley to the weak thieves who took advantage of the situation.
No one among them took the opportunity to attack the village or burn it down, especially the raiding teams returning from Weifenjian.
Those guys followed military orders and carried out extremely cruel plundering of Wei Fenjian. This made us basically abandoned by the princes, and the attitude became that if the people of Rosti wanted to kill them, they could kill them.
Therefore, except for some guys who were blinded by wealth and still stayed in Rosti to rob and plunder, and were among the first to be wiped out, a small minority returned to Northeast Si Valley. After all, we have robbed enough people.
But now, before we saw the chaos in Sigu in Northeast China, we organized ourselves again.
News about all kinds of fortunes in Rossi have been circulating in the northeastern Si Valley, so the looters have been accumulating money, and we want to continue to make a few more.
Those guys are basically composed of forest dwellers who live outside the deep forest. It is naturally difficult for us to split up. Moreover, each village has not dispersed since the raiding team has only been back for a long time. It is too convenient to gather together.
.
Then we ended the differentiated robbery. What kind of pagan Christians are those people? They will rob them if they need to, at least to save their lives for the sake of being fellow pagans - gouging out their eyes to ensure that those people have
Before legal revenge.
Compared with the village militias in various parts of Northeast Weifen, our combat effectiveness is very weak. During the days of walking with the small winter army, we learned a lot, which is enough to suppress simple civilians.
Those actions attracted a small group of scum and weak thieves from Northeast Si Valley. Since that team couldn't lead the small family to make a fortune, why did they join us? So our team slowly expanded, and soon it exceeded a thousand people.
And there are not many weak thieves acting under our banner. As for whether those people are ours, only the gods know.
Because of our habit, those guys were called the Eye-Gouging Gang, which corresponded to Lev's Bulgar Gang. Both of them hated each other and were enemies of each other.
What Lev wanted to restore was the former fierceness of the Northeast Valley, but to turn it into a paradise for criminals, so I also ordered a crackdown on the Eye Gouging Gang.
In that regard, Lev completely miscalculated. I originally thought that at least there were some weak thieves, but I never thought of using this as an opportunity to form a small gang and do mischief everywhere.
Apart from those two groups, the smallest Christian army in Northeast Weifen was Yang's team.
In those days, Yang knew how to defeat and suppress many pagan armed forces. The pagans' retreat on the town was also thwarted by me, and many of the besieged manor and walled cities were liberated.
Before liberating the manor and the walled city, the nobles and walled lords outside all mobilized their troops to join Yang's team, and Moscow also sent reinforcements. Yang's army was still weak, and it was fighting against the Bulgar Gang and the Eye-Gouging Gang at the same time.
No problem.
Yang hung all the captured prisoners on the roadside and let our bodies sway in the wind, and that trick did have a very good effect on public security. Seeing Yang's ruthless methods, many civilians changed jobs and died.
The thieves who came here basically stopped, and we resumed our usual lives.
The activity of Yang's team and the plundering of the Eye-Gouging Gang forced the Bulgar Gang to change their action strategies.
Lev is more like this than anyone else. Given the current situation, even if we gather all the armed forces from all over the country and draw back the Eyegouging Gang to fight against Veleslav's small army, we will still be able to hit the stone with an egg.
Therefore, there is no small meeting in Bulgar Valley to discuss our future.
"Now, let's vote with a show of hands."
Under the gaze of the Bulgar statue, Lev said in front of the leaders of the Bulgar gang behind him.
Looking at those people, Lev felt quite emotional. In front of each person above was a representation of hundreds of people armed. It was the reward of my efforts and arrangements.
But it is a pity that the victory in retreating to Moscow made this the best possible victory. Now the situation in Northeast Sigu is so chaotic that I must make changes.
And Lev's voting item is not my change on this matter. This person has completely separated the Bulgar Gang and completely transformed it into a leader.
Lev was very vague as to whether I would be alive in a few years. As I had thought, regardless of victory or defeat, it was my first battle. If I wanted to continue resisting like this, I would have to find another way.
And my method is very complicated. People who gain power will want to keep the power in their hands, so I only need to distribute all those powers, and resistance will naturally flourish.
After all, those who left the Bulgar Gang were all pagans, which meant that the Moscow government was hostile, and those in power could only fight Christians if they wanted to stabilize their prestige.
That was Lev's plan before the siege of Moscow. Just let the resistance disperse. Let us disperse like stars all over the sky. Let the Christians continue to suppress it. Let's see how long we can't suppress it.
In the valley, looking at these arms raised low, Lev smiled. I had not yet achieved the goal I wanted, which made Lev very satisfied.
As for myself...it all requires a martyr, and I think I am a good fit.
