“These bastards are really big-hearted! They’ve already entered the wolf’s den and are still clamoring for a fire to cook. I think they’d better eat their meal in hell.” In the dense forest about thirty steps away from the caravan, a bandit soldier crouched behind a stone chuckled softly.
� ． In the deepest part of the birch forest, the masked fat leader looked at the convoy that was getting closer and closer at the corner of the road, and he always had an unexplainable strange feeling in his heart - the carriages of this convoy were arranged on both sides of the commercial road, and all the coachmen and attendants were walking in the middle of the carriages. Although most of them were just coachmen without weapons and armor, there was an indescribable energy in their movements.
At a moment's notice, the convoy was only a hundred or so steps away from the ambush site.
"Big leader, the fat sheep has entered your mouth, should you rush forward first?" The tough bandit carrying a thick-backed machete next to the masked fat leader could no longer hold himself back.
"Wait a little longer, we'll be more confident if we get closer." The fat masked leader decided to observe for a while longer.
Seeing that the convoy had walked fifty steps, the fat masked leader still suppressed his gangsters from charging. He always felt that something was wrong here.
Just when the fat leader's men were frantic, the bandits in the mountains on the opposite side hastily made the first move, and several light arrows had been fired at the convoy fifty steps away from the opposite side...
"TMD, idiot!"
The fat masked leader cursed the group of restless bandits opposite him, then hurriedly slapped the gangsters around him and shouted, "Come on, all of them! Don't let the bastards on the opposite side take away the victory!"
The gangster carrying a machete led fifteen or six strong villains armed with knives, axes, clubs and hammers as they charged towards the convoy on the trade road fifty steps away.
Almost at the same time as the gangsters rushed out, the convoy on the commercial road suddenly stopped, and then the two carriages began to change formations.
Matt, Ron, and Felix jumped off their horses and assisted the two carriages at the head of the team to turn their heads and point the rears of the two carriages toward the overcoming bandits. A dozen carriages on both sides also swung their bodies closer together, and the livestock were hidden in the jagged carriage formation.
In just a short moment, all the people and animals in the convoy were surrounded by a tight formation of more than a dozen carriages...
"Woo~woo~woo~" Then three horns sounded from the formation... .
"What's going on? What happened?"
The convoy in front of the gangsters who were charging at the front suddenly changed formation. They didn't react for a while, and their pace slowed down unconsciously.
"What are you waiting for? I'll kill you with one charge!"
The stopped gangster was pushed by another guy who rushed up from behind, and he no longer hesitated to raise his machete and charge towards the convoy.
On the other side of the caravan, the bandit leader Redoan, who had just ordered to fire a few light arrows, suppressed his bandits who wanted to follow the charge. He looked coldly at the bandits who stopped in front of the car formation fifty steps away, then turned to look at the depths of the dense forest behind him, and then looked back at the battlefield in front of him...
Since the defeat, it had not been long since he came into contact with this black-robed army, but this army gave him an unusual feeling. He knew that even without the tragic fortune at the Boulder Town camp, the fate that awaited their bandits would definitely be destruction.
But Redoan is lucky at this moment, because he is standing behind the group of people instead of opposite. As long as he is still useful to those people, the lives of him, his son and even his brothers are temporarily safe.
“God chose to make me a lucky one.” Redoan looked up at the sky and couldn’t help but muttered.
"Big leader, what did you say?" the second leader asked Redoan.
Redoan lowered his head and ordered softly: "Get ready to retreat."
........................
"Everyone, fight!" Standing in the car formation, Art saw a dozen gangsters rushing to the front of the formation, and loudly ordered the guards to fight.
A dozen caravan guards took advantage of the situation and took out shields, spears, swords, hammers and axes from the carriages beside them, and raised their weapons to guard against the bandits outside the car array who were trying to come in.
Huddled up, the fat sheep suddenly took out its weapon and exposed its fangs, which made the frightened bandits panic again.
"What's going on?" The gangster who had just led the charge was stunned again.
The bandit soldier next to him split open the felt cloth of the carriage and the cargo bags in the carriage with a knife. A whole bag of fine sea salt spilled out from the carriage. The bandit soldier also split the felt cloth of another carriage. In the carriage, precious southern goods such as silk, spices, magenta, and alum were neatly stacked.
"It's all from South China! Make a profit! Make a profit!!" The bandit grabbed a handful of snow-white sea salt and shouted at the gangster.
The gangster's face also had an expression of surprise, and his previous doubts were suddenly forgotten, "Guys, rush in with me and kill these fat sheep."
As he said that, the gangster climbed up towards a carriage in front of him, trying to climb over the carriage and kill the fat sheep with fangs exposed.
The gangster had just climbed onto the roof of the carriage and before he had time to stand still, a short spear was stabbed straight into the chest and abdomen of the gangster. Seeing that the situation was not good, the gangster turned around and rolled down from the carriage, falling to the ground to escape the injury.
"Bastard, you're pretty good." As he said that, the gangster walked towards a carriage next to him, hoping to find a gap in the carriage room and get through it, but he couldn't find the gap after searching for several vehicles.
At this time, the fat, masked bandit leader finally rushed up with one of his henchmen. Seeing his gangsters surrounding the car formation, he cursed loudly: "You guys are weaklings, don't show your usual vigor in conquering women. Where is it? Come on, charge in! ”
The fierce bandit stared at the bandit soldiers and yelled, “The leader said, attack! ”
The bandits who also searched around the car formation for a long time knew that there was no shortcut. They responded to the call of the gangsters and began to climb onto the carriage from several places at the same time or get under the car to attack the car formation...
A habitual bandit who had recently joined the bandit team saw that the big leader was still unwilling to send troops to charge, so he asked anxiously: "Ledoan, what the hell are you waiting for? If we don't charge for a while, they will break the formation. How can we survive?" The battle for face was won! "
This habitual bandit brought a few elite bandit soldiers to join the group. He was dissatisfied with the leader Ledo And, who had always been hesitant in his actions. Now he has become the leader and has long been interested in killing this guy.
"What are you yelling about? The other party must be cheating. I can't let my brothers take risks. Wait any longer."
????After hearing the tepid words of the bandit leader Redoan, the habitual gangster immediately became angry and jumped out and pointed at Redoan's nose and cursed: "Ledoan, I didn't expect you to do this. He's such a coward, I'm blind. Brothers, if you are willing to leave this coward, rush forward with me, grab the goods and set up our own flag. "
A few guys who are greedy for money and life are really responding to the habitual bandit's words. Soon there are five minions around the habitual bandit.
"Is there anyone who is willing to rush up with me? Those fat sheep can no longer hold on. As long as we join the battle formation, we will win immediately!" The gangsters were still agitating, but the people behind Redoan saw that the big leader was not moved at all, and they all stopped and stood there obediently.
Seeing that the rest of the bandits were not moving, the habitual bandit yelled: "They are all a bunch of cowards!"
He then turned around and looked at the five minions standing on his side, raising their axes and shouting excitedly: "Guys, come up with me and grab as much as you can!"
A group of six people rushed towards the car formation fifty steps away like mad dogs...
??????The bandit leader Lei Duoan chuckled, turned his head and glanced at the dense forest behind him, and several vague figures had already appeared in his eyes.
"Brothers, we have been fooled, there is an ambush behind us!" Redoan shouted to the twenty or so bandit soldiers behind him. Although his voice was loud, he did not panic at all.
As soon as the bandit leader finished speaking, the newly promoted second leader said what he had thought about for a long time: "Don't panic, everyone. The big leader has guessed that the enemy has an ambush. Brothers, follow us and retreat north." As a group of bandit soldiers fled along the commercial road towards the north direction of Lane Manor~
The battle in front of the car array had just entered a state of affairs. Art expected that Angus would soon lead his troops to the battlefield, so he ordered the car array to be moved out of the gap to attract the bandits into the car array, and try to hold back the bandits as much as possible in order to annihilate them all.
When a gap suddenly appeared in the frontal vehicle formation, the bandit soldiers who had been unable to break through the formation rushed into the vehicle formation through the gap without even thinking about it.
Suddenly, seven or eight tough bandits with sophisticated weapons rushed into the car formation, and the defensive pressure in the vehicle formation suddenly increased sharply.
Hatta put the bloody knight's sword back into the scabbard, picked up the short-handled chain hammer on the ground, and threw it at a gangster who rushed into the car formation. He smashed the gangster's shoulder with one hammer. Looking at the gangsters that kept pouring in, he shouted: "Feli Kes led people to take charge of the three flanks, and Ron Raven came up to block the front with me."
After hearing the order, the three people rushed through the huddled guards, and each came to the fighting position to charge the bandits and fight to the death...
On the other side, Angus led thirty soldiers from the 23rd Squadron and rushed out of the dense forest. The battlefield was less than a hundred steps away from them.
"Bangeda led a small team to stay behind and prepare. When encountering escaped bandits, he immediately led the team to pursue them, striving to annihilate them all."
"Kazak led his squadron to encircle the two flanks, squeezing from the outside inward."
"Touba, you personally lead the Klaus squad and follow me into the car formation."
There is no doubt about the next battle. Thought, although the bandits coming out of Lane Manor were well equipped with sophisticated weapons and extraordinary fighting prowess, facing an army that was several times their size and well-equipped with weapons and armor, these ruthless bandits who had been oppressing civilian merchants all year round simply couldn't stand it, and the battle ended in less than half an hour.
· Soldiers on the commercial road were cleaning the battlefield to treat the wounded. Although they were fully prepared before the war and had vehicle formations to resist during the war, some casualties were counted after the war.
During the defense of the car formation just now, a caravan guard had his arm cut off with an ax by a gangster who jumped into the car formation. During the battle, he was too late to receive treatment and bled to death. Two other guards were surrounded by four or five bandits who rushed in at the gap in the car formation. If Art and Ron hadn't stepped forward in time to provide reinforcements, these two guards would have suffered more than minor injuries.
Hangda, who was in charge of peripheral security and pursuit, escorted a masked fat man back to Art, lowered his head and said, "Sir, we recovered this fat pig, but we still eliminated a bastard."
Ange. Si shouted at Bangeda: "I asked you to lead people to chase the fleeing enemy, but you let one of the two bastards escape?"
Bangeda's head hung lower and muttered: "It's inconvenient for us to carry halberds and short spears through the woods..."
“Won’t you put down your weapon and pursue him with bare hands???” Angus was even more furious.
Bangeda stopped explaining and bowed his head to be taught.
Matt ignored Angus and Bangada and walked straight to the masked man kneeling on the ground and pulled off the mask, revealing a frightened pig face.
"Butler, do you remember me?"
The fat guy raised his head and glanced at the person in front of him, and looked at it for a long time, "Master, who are you?"
Art smiled and said: "Butler, I really forget things. I wonder if the deer skin you took from me is useful or not?"
The fat guy looked up again and looked at it carefully, and said in surprise: "Are you the hunter in the mountains?"
Matt squatted down, smiled and said to the fat guy: "Yes, I am the mountain hunter who gave you the rabbit skin."
The fat guy seemed to have seized a chance, and stood up and hugged Matt's arm. The soldiers guarding him quickly came up and dragged the fat guy away. The fat guy struggled and begged: "Man, please beg your master to let me live. I am willing to pay a ransom for myself."
Angus, who was teaching Banganda a lesson, heard the movement on Art's side and came over and laughed at the fat guy's poor performance.
"Sir, it seems that this fat pig regards you as the guard of the caravan."
The fat guy was speechless when he heard someone calling this hunter "sir", "You, you, you are the owner of the caravan?"
At said nothing as he looked at the fat guy.
The fat guy fell to his knees all of a sudden, "Sir, I was wrong, please let me go, please let me live~"
Matt didn't want to talk to this fat pig anymore, "You robbed me of a deer skin back then. I wanted to peel your skin off, but look at you now You have a good attitude, I'll let you go."
After hearing Art's words to let him go, the fat guy immediately stopped crying and said, "Thank you, sir, for your mercy. Thank you, sir, for your kindness." He was about to get up and leave, but the soldiers behind him still held him tightly.
"Butler, what do you think you're in a hurry about? I don't care about the fact that you robbed my deerskin back then, but the matter of you accompanying the bandits to rob the caravan has not been dealt with yet?"
The fat guy suddenly collapsed on the ground again.
Att drew the knight's sword from his waist, raised the hilt high and said: "I, Art Woodwells, knight of the palace guard of the County of Burgundy and patrol officer of the southern border of Tyniec, declare your punishment on behalf of God and human justice."
After speaking, he raised his sword and slashed hard, and with a scream, the fat guy's head rolled to the ground...
Kazak looked at the rolling heads on the ground and asked Art: "Sir, what should I do with the captured bandits?"
"Chop them all, leaving no one behind!"
