Chapter 17: The 2nd Battle for Onega
Ragnar had made one huge mistake. While half his army entered the city, robbing the homes and slaying the children, the other half had to stay back due to extensive hours training and recovering from the first battle. Tsar Alexander II saw this chance and took it, and in one of the most heroic and ill-advised military action ever taken, Alexander's two thousand knights descended on the Viking's three thousand berserkers and two thousand cannons. Two thousand crossbowmen, left behind in the Battle of Riga, made their way up, also. Macemen lined the eastern border of the city, and cannons in the south. The knights attacked, and brought down two divisions, with one thousand men in each division, of berserkers. The rest fled into the city. This was the real turning point for the war, and it would be known as 'Ragnar's Demise'. Onega was surrounded. With the combined force of crossbowmen, knights, macemen, and cannons, Onega was brought down after a long, hard battle. All the men gathered, and they formed the Russian Military Corporation, they formed this under the war hero, Eyema Rushin.

Chapter 18: The Tide Turns
With recapturing Onega, Alexander's army continued to retaliate in the Onega barracks. As they did so, Alexander himself found Ragnar trying to sneak out of the city. However, Alexander beheaded the Viking king. Ragnar's brother, Olaf, and his eldest son, Ragnar II, were also found and killed. Ragnar's middle son, Erik II, was captured by Russian forces and forced into Russian jail. Only Ragnar's youngest son, Cnut, remained untouched by the Russian Empire. Cnut 'the Unready' inherited the Viking throne and quickly gave it to his nephew, Ragnar's grandson, and Ragnar II's son, Ragnar III. With all the political confusion, Alexander led his army into Scandinavia, where there were two options to attack. There was the large city of Lulea and then the smaller city of Hammerfest. Alexander chose to attack Hammerfest, and with the loss of only one knight unit, captured and destroyed the unsuspecting village. However, The Vikings were able to produce and counter-attack, and destroy parts of Alexander's army one-by-one. One killed was Eyema Rushin (which was never a real general - if anyone gets what I'm going for here, say so), Alexander's brother, Ivan X, and Alexander himself. Alexander's successor, Viktor, became Tsar.

Siberia is rather frozen... probably the best way to go is indeed east. Though that must be causing some stability issues, right?

Ah, usually I somehow manage to cause my stability to collapse with a nation I have not played with much before.
Anyways, good luck in Scandanavia!
