Chapter 14

Crison castle, study.

"Sir, commander bill only brought four cavalry. Isn't it wrong to go there? I think there are still some helpers around the boy."

Viscount oli smiled contemptuously on his fat face, shook his head at the housekeeper next to him, took a cup of honey water in front of the desk, carefully tasted it, made a Zizi sound in his mouth, leaned back on the mahogany chair and motioned the maid next to him to massage himself.

"Five cavalry soldiers are enough. It's said that the black sheep sold out his family's property. Even the housekeeper and servant ran away. When he left the city, he didn't have a guard around him. It's a great blessing to come here safely. Plus the hyenas outside the city, twenty or thirty people are more than enough. It's not good for us to go more. At least he's still a noble and died in the city Even if the robbers are in their hands, I can't curse on my back, otherwise Marquis TEWIN won won't be easy to deal with. I just want to get my food back. I say you have bad luck and have to buy my food? "

"Sir, you are considerate. Anyway, there are so many robbers here. If the boy dies, he will be pushed to the robbers, and Marquis Twain will not intervene."

"He died at the hands of robbers. What does it have to do with me?"

Viscount oli opened his eyes, looked puzzled, looked at the Barry housekeeper next to him, and then laughed.

When the carriage was walking in a mountainous area, Lehman in front suddenly waved to the team to stop, and the hunters were on guard. Nord was a little puzzled. Was there an ambush? But the woods in front of me are no different from the ones I passed by just now.

There are low mountains and forests nearby. Only a winding road shows that there are traces of human passing here. The surrounding woods are very quiet. I don't know how long the big trees have grown here. Some are still crooked. At first glance, I think they are some demons and ghosts.

Nord was about to ask Lehman about the situation. He only heard the sound of killing at the top of the mountain forest on the right. Through the gap in the forest, he could see a group of ragged robbers with wooden sticks and spears charging down the mountain. If he didn't look at their equipment, he would still be bluffing.

Lehman ordered the hunters to stand by the side of the road and shoot arrows at the robbers in the jungle. However, due to the terrain and the woods, the effect was not very ideal. Only a few people were shot by the arrow, and the others were blocked by the trees. However, when they saw the people around them crying with arrows, the robbers' charge was gradually full. They all hid behind the big tree and moved forward carefully.

Nord stood behind to observe the war and found that old Moore was very calm. He didn't shoot at people like other hunters. I saw that he had to observe every arrow for a long time, but basically every arrow was very accurate. After a while, four or five robbers fell under his arrow.

Compared with old Moore, Lehman's bow is different from others. Because Lehman is tall, his bow can be said to be a long bow. The strength of each arrow is very heavy. Watching Lehman pull the bow to the full moon, the bow and arrow will make a bang sound. The robbers shot by Lehman are obviously running, Fell and never stood up.

With the casualties of the robbers, there was no running figure in the woods, and the mountains and forests slowly quieted down, as if frightened by the casualties caused by the hunters, or waiting for any chance.

Just as Lehman and others stared at the woods and were on guard against the robbers in the woods, there were bursts of horse hoofs on the distant path.

Lehman's face turned bad. It was the cavalry led by bill. They were not these greedy robbers. They were not only well equipped, but also with the speed of horses and the robbers in the mountains. I'm afraid the real battle has just begun.

Nord also saw the cavalry from afar. Although the path was winding and the cavalry's speed was not very fast, once they rushed close, the long-range war turned into hand to hand combat, I'm afraid the advantages of the hunters would disappear.

We must find a shelter to stop the cavalry's charge. Do we have to retreat to the mountain forest on the left? But what about the grain? Grain truck? Nord's eyes lit up.

He quickly ordered Marco and others to put two grain carts horizontally on the path. In Ancient Song Dynasty, there was a precedent of blocking cavalry through chariots and creating terrain advantages for crossbow men. I don't know how much effect it can have, but at least with bunkers, hunters can give better play.

After Nord put the carriage away, he immediately shouted to Lehman and others, "come behind the carriage!"

Lehman saw the scene behind him and immediately reacted. He was overjoyed and commanded the hunters around him to slowly withdraw behind the carriage.

"Everyone hide behind the carriage, see the opportunity to shoot at the enemy again, and be careful of the robbers. Don't let them touch us."

Nord also asked Marco and Reid to give the newly bought axe to Hunters without melee weapons. Although the axe is used for logging, it is better than holding a short sword or bare hands.

While Nord and others were hiding behind the car to prepare, bill and the cavalry had come not far away. Bill waved and the four cavalry behind him charged with shields.

Standing behind the carriage, the hunters leaned out half their bodies and shot arrows at the cavalry. They only heard a few bangs. The bows and arrows were shot on the cavalry's shield, which didn't play any role. Lehman took a deep breath, drank loudly, and opened his long bow with both arms. The bow was like a full moon and the arrow was like a meteor. With a bang, the long arrow was shot on the cavalry's shield, I saw the cavalry on the horse strangely appear for a moment of stillness, and then even people with shields fell off the horse.

"Good!"

Nord couldn't help roaring. It's so powerful. What power is this! The rest of the hunters were also encouraged. For a time, the arrows rained like rain. In the chaos of arrows, a cavalry horse took a deep arrow. He turned over and fell to the ground, and Nord's eyes lit up.

"Shoot the horse first, shoot the horse to death!"

Old Moore heard the speech and understood what he should do. He bounced his hands and whizzed. The horses of the two cavalry rushed in front fell down. The remaining two cavalry followed suit and were shot dead by other hunters.

The threat of riding has been lifted. Just destroy them one by one with bows and arrows, but there is a cry of killing in the mountain forest on the right. It turned out that the robbers in the mountain forest saw their cavalry arrived, summoned up their courage and rushed down the mountain.

We can't let the bandits in the mountains rush down. Once the team is attacked, there will be close combat, and the enemy is numerous. Even if we can defeat the enemy, there will be heavy casualties.

Just when Nord hesitated, the cavalry who had been shot off his horse had stood up again and was approaching with a shield. Although it looked a little embarrassed, it seemed that the injury was not very serious and had the power of World War I. Moreover, due to the speed of the cavalry, the position where they fell off the horse was less than 20 steps away from the carriage, and it arrived in an instant.

Nord told old Moore to take six hunters and suppress the robbers on the right with bows and arrows. Lehman picked up two axes and rushed with the rest of the hunters towards the fallen cavalry.

Knowing that the enemy in front of him must be solved first, Nord asked the housekeeper to take out a one handed sword to Reid, leaving the ineffective housekeeper to look at the carriage. Nord and Marco rushed out with Lehman and others.
