king of ros

Chapter 14 Mysterious reinforcements
Veshata went down swiftly to carry out the Grand Duke's orders, and when he left Rostislav and his grandfather continued their discussion.

"Grandpa, what do you think we should do next?"

"You actually don't need to do anything now, just protect yourself. There is not much you can do, and only one Aral jumped out clearly. As for the person who colluded with him... that person is very clean and has nothing left for me. Clues, news from Kyiv has not come yet."

"Really? You're just like my teacher."

Rostislav was dejected. Although he knew that it was impossible to find out who was behind the scenes by telling his grandfather, he still had some illusions in his heart.

"Your teacher? Luca, right? He's a smart man, so it's normal to say that. But don't worry too much, just be careful."

Yaroslav mentioned Luka in a tone of approval, and there was some look of reminiscence. Luka was also his acquaintance, and it was he who sent Luka to the north as a bishop.

Originally, Luka was going to assist his eldest son in preparing for the future rule of Ross, but it was not as good as God, who knew that his eldest son died just like that...

"Hey, forget it, it's meaningless to discuss these things, so let's change things, can you tell me who is coming to rescue us?"

Rostislav didn't want to continue discussing this matter, and changed his attention to something else, which was what he was most curious about right now.

"This..."

Yaroslav's playful expression appeared again on his face.

"Just wait and see, all of you will be surprised by then."

From Rostislav's point of view, the current grandfather is like a child who hid candy and waited for someone to find it. Should it be called old and young?Being old is like a child again—of course, he dared not say that directly to his grandfather.

"Go and rectify your soldiers. In a few days, all this will be over, and we will get more clues by then. All we need to do these days is to raise our spirits."

"Well, everything is as you wish."

Yaroslav had already talked about this, so naturally Rostislav could only obey the order, retreated from the big announcement and left the city wall, leaving Yaroslav alone here.

The Grand Duke continued to look at everything below confidently. In his eyes, there were no enemies there, but dead people who hadn't died yet.

--------

Under the order of the Grand Duke, the originally restless military spirit also stabilized. After all, everyone trusted the authority of the Grand Duke of Kyiv. Yaroslav has ruled the Russian land for decades, and his authority is beyond doubt.

But after telling the generals that reinforcements are coming, everyone's fighting spirit was ignited instead, and they all waited for the moment when the reinforcements arrived to fight out of the city to gain glory.

Therefore, Yuriev did not have a trace of panic and fear after being surrounded by superior enemy forces. Instead, the soldiers were seriously preparing their armies and preparing for war. I didn't know that they thought they were outside the city but were surrounded.

At the beginning, the citizens of Yuriev were in a bad mood. They had just escaped the siege and then were besieged again. Their emotions were tossed and startled, like frightened birds, but soon the performance of the Grand Duke's army calmed their panic. Those nobles are not panicking, so why are you panicking.

The mayor Yuriev and the bishop who thought that the disaster was imminent can be said to be the most unexpected. They thought that they would have to organize the people to live a difficult life, but they turned into soldiers from all walks of life full of fighting spirit looking for a training ground .

Rostislav was not idle during this time, he was busy rectifying his entourage and soldiers, reviewing his skills, and adjusting his body in order to achieve the best condition.

He even led his personal entourage to gallop on the training ground. Rostislav knew very well that the cavalry would be crucial in the next battle. As long as he seized the opportunity, he could make an indelible contribution.

During the training period, Veshata specifically looked for him several times, and his father's close friends told him that no matter what happened next, he and his family would firmly stand by Rostislav's side.

The prince of Nuocheng was very moved by this, because he was the weakest one among all the Ruriks anyway, but this powerful person bet on him.

At the same time, he couldn't help but thank his father for leaving him such a sincere friend.

When the battle in Yuriev City was raging, the Chude people outside the city were not idle, they built the siege fortifications in an orderly manner, and blocked the river next to Yuriev, posing a long-term siege look.

The strategy of the Chud people is extremely correct. After Yaroslav's 5000 troops poured in, the food in the city could only last for two weeks at most. As long as they kept encircling, hunger would finish everything.

What they didn't expect was that the Ross people were sharpening their knives at them...

--------

The signal for battle came very suddenly.

At first it was just a fire in the Chude camp in the middle of the night. At the beginning, no one paid attention to it. The barbarians always made some bad things from time to time. They haven't been able to overcome their bad habits, and these bad habits will bring chaos.

But as the flames turned into a big fire that permeated the entire camp, and when the shouts of killing sounded, no matter how dull people were, they noticed one thing—the war started!

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo~"

When the horn sounded, the whole city woke up, and everyone immediately realized that the moment they were waiting for had arrived!

Rostislav quickly put on the chain mail shirt, and when he walked out of the room, he saw a scene of order amidst the chaos:
The men and horses stumbled in the ubiquitous cold, and their followers jumped onto the panting horses one after another. The soldiers buckled their sword belts as they ran, and stood still in front of Rostislav.

"Are you all ready? Then let's go!"

"For victory!"

Rostislav led his team on the wooden streets of Yuriev, and encountered soldiers in twos and threes from time to time. They merged into Rostislav's ranks, like a tributary flowing into the main stream, making the team even bigger .

When Rostislav arrived at the city gate, he thought he would be the first to arrive, but he suddenly saw that the army of his grandfather and Veshata had already lined up here, and the soldiers lined up in a neat line silently, waiting for the prince The command.

"Oh? The third one is you? Rostislav, you have trained your subordinates very well."

After seeing Rostislav, Veshata said appreciatively, and his grandfather also cast a look with the same emotion.

"It seems that you brought a lot of people, so let's start. That brat didn't even send a signal and attacked directly, just like a thunder... Still eager as always, we have to hurry up, Otherwise, we won’t be able to catch up with the battle.”

"Obey, Grand Duke!"

Everyone responded in unison, and Yaroslav rode through the open city gate first, and behind him were countless soldiers holding steel. Rurik's trident fluttered in the wind, showing the remaining power in the darkness. Rick's power.
