Arod was patiently waiting for Duke Eble's reinforcements in Mecklenburg, and on the other hand, he was also stepping up his preparations for military preparation. After fighting with the Vikings, Arod summoned his courtiers to conduct post-war summary and consultation in Mecklenburg. Arod consciously wanted to cultivate a tradition of post-war experience summary.

"Dear courtiers, this time the Viking warriors' attack caused our port to suffer losses, but with your efforts, they finally defeated them. However, the Viking warriors' attack will never stop. They will continue to invade our territory like wolves. What are your countermeasures for this?" Arod sat in his lord seat and said to the courtiers standing on both sides below.

"Sir Earl, it is a good chess for you to build towers in the port first and defend against the Viking warriors' attacks. Although he suffered some losses, these are insignificant as compared to previous history." Monk Elvit walked out and said respectfully to Arud.

"I hope to hear more shortcomings and criticisms rather than flattery. My palace minister, Monk Elvit." Arod waved his hand at Monk Elvit. He hoped to find more shortcomings. Facing the powerful Viking warriors' combat power, Arod was indeed a little surprised.

"The defense of the tower is still not enough. Lord Earl, one of the first floors of the tower has been conquered. If the ladder is not removed, a brick tower you have worked hard to build will become a stronghold for the Viking warriors. This is really dangerous." Deputy Commander Johnberg pointed out the shortcomings to Arod.

"That's because the soldiers in the tower are inexperienced, most of them are recruits. They will be weak when they encounter strong enemies. If they were not defending the crossbow and crossbow, they might have been conquered before we arrived." Sir Ron said.

"Soldiers are not experienced enough and are not vigilant enough about handling crises. This requires us to conduct military training every month in the future to make up for it, and we will write down it." Aruod said to a monk standing beside him. The monk stood on the left side of Aruod, where a wooden writing platform was placed. The monk dipped in ink and wrote quickly with a quill pen.

"We must build a cavalry patrol unit. This time we didn't know where the Vikings landed. This was a major mistake. Maybe I am not as rich as Sir Ron in military affairs, but it is a shame to let the Vikings land on our territory too easily." Monk Elvit said with a frown and shook his head.

"Our coastline is an open door for the Vikings, and we must build a fleet." Arod rubbed his hands. He unanimously believed that the way to defeat the Vikings was to defend the enemy outside the country's gate. The best way was to use a fleet to destroy the Vikings.

"Fleet?" The other court officials felt inexplicably. This way of thinking strategy was far beyond their minds, and they felt strange and novel.

"Yes, I know that there are many merchant ships coming and going in our ports. Monk Elvit, I need you to summon the merchants and call their ships and sailors over, and of course I will pay a certain fee after the war to make up for their losses." Arod ordered Monk Elvit.

"Yes, my Count, but I'm worried about whether they are opponents of the Viking Pirates." Monk Elvitt carefully reminded Arod to know that those Viking Warriors are the best at sea fighting, otherwise they would not be able to cross the Baltic Sea, raid and invade Mecklenburg County.

"Does John Berg remember how I defeated the Duke of Bohemia?" Arod was not on a whim. He remembered watching a movie in his previous life about how the Byzantines defeated the Arab Empire's navy. What are the Viking ships compared to the powerful Arab Empire?

"You mean~~." Johnberg didn't understand why Arod suddenly mentioned this matter. Of course he knew how Arod defeated the Duke of Bohemia. Arod led the Bohemia into a narrow basin, and then when the Bohemia was crowded, he used his unique fire-breathing monster car to burst out flames, causing the Bohemia troops to collapse. Could Arod wanted to attack the opponent's Viking warriors with fire? When he thought of this, his eyes lit up.

"Yes, I want to attack with fire." Arud knew that his fire-breathing weapon was not afraid of sea water at all. No, even like Greek fire, it had an advantage on the sea surface. The difference was just how to operate it. He only needed to install the fire-breathing weapon at the tail end of the ship. When the Vikings pursued the fire-breathing weapon would launch the Greek fire that could burn the sea water, which would burn those ships loaded with Viking warriors, achieving the effect of defeating the enemy without fighting.

"God, Lord Earl hopes you know what you are doing?" Monk Elvit couldn't help but crucifixion on his chest. He couldn't understand Arod's thoughts, but he knew Arod had always had his own way of dealing with it, so he summoned the merchants in the port as ordered.

Feich Karl's grain merchant from Westfriesland was very strange when he received this order with other merchants, but he had no favoritism for the Vikings. If he had not gone to Mecklenburg's town to purchase grains on the night of Claise's raid, he would have been killed by the Vikings long ago, but some of his friends were not as lucky as him. So when Arod destroyed the small Vikings raiding Mecklenburg, he excitedly invited everyone to drink in the tavern in the town.

"Mr. Earl wants to recruit our ships? But we are not under the jurisdiction of Master. Our ships are only the merchant guild and their own personal property." Feich Karl defended Monk Elvit.

"I know, but it is an extraordinary time, and the Vikings are showing signs of going south. Think about it, if the Earl cannot stop the terrible Vikings, then your lives and property will be lost." Monk Elvit said patiently to the merchants in his seat.

"But, but we." Feiqi Carl hesitated. The nobles recruited merchants' property but had never been returned. He was very worried that his hard-working property would be wasted.
