Chapter 590: Robbery of the Caravan
The city of Hasara, a large city in the eastern part of the Roman Empire, was slowly driving out of the city gates with thousands of guards.
This was the caravan of the wealthy family of the Roman Empire, the Rossi family.
The Rossi family was famous in the Roman Empire. Not only are they financially powerful, they live in tall fortresses, but they are also powerful and control the entire city of Hasara, not to mention that the Rossi family enjoys many privileges from the imperial family.
This caravan, still assembled by the elite guards of the Roman Empire, is as always, ordered to escort a large amount of supplies to the Ice and Snow Kingdom to trade with the Ice and Snow Kingdom's court. The task of escorting supplies is their monthly routine, and the escorted materials always contain a large number of luxury goods and gold coins, it is conceivable that as long as they are safely escorted to the Ice and Snow Kingdom to complete the transaction, they will definitely be able to exchange for a very considerable fortune.
In fact, the Rossi family is indeed very good at harming the public and private, and the Rossi family will unknowingly mix in the considerable profits from the escort materials every month.
Although this is a conceivable piece of fat, because the strength of the guards is extraordinary, all of them are royal soldiers of the Empire, so no one has ever dared to fight the idea of this caravan, and therefore, the caravan can always complete the transaction and return to the Roman Empire, bringing back one wealth after another for the Roman Empire. Of course, the Rossi family also profited from this.
However, at this moment, the caravan that was slowly leaving the area of Hasara City would not have thought that this time's escort mission would not be as smooth as usual.
Because their every move has been secretly targeted by a group of people who don't know their origins.
Not far from them, on a slope near the city gate, three knights, without saying a word, rode on their respective mounts, staring at the Roman caravan that had just walked out of the city gate. And at the bottom of the slope, there was a knight, galloping on his horse, galloping into the distance.
The knight, the reason why he hastened his movements, was because he was heading towards a small canyon in the distance, and he needed to get there as fast as possible to carry a message.
And in that canyon, there was a team of horses staying. This horse team, about 500 people, all wore weapons, and these weapons were not less lethal charge "↗dǐng" ↗diǎn "↗ small "↗ say,.■.o≥s_ (); Gun. Looking at the outfit of this horse team, it is clear that it will be a big deal.
It turned out that they were members of the Mountain Eagle Special Combat Team, composed of subordinates led by Vice Captain Qi Hada himself. It's just that not all of these 500 people are members of the Mountain Eagle Special Combat Team, and more than 400 of them are horse thieves subdued by Qihada.
These horse thieves can be said to be Qihada's military exploits. Since receiving the task of looting caravans, Zihada's warband can be described as a storm sweeping leaves, and in the east of Hasara City, they quickly carried out various looting activities, and many large and small caravans have become their targets. With these high-end guns and weapons, Zihada led his subordinates to quickly launch a raid operation, and naturally they were rich.
Although the caravans that became the target of Qihada's attack were a lot if they were counted as a total number, because Qihada had a clever strategy, every time he struck, he would not snatch all the belongings of these caravans, but would only start in a limited but extremely rapid way, leaving them with a way out, so if it is true that these caravans feel sorry for themselves being robbed, it did not bring huge losses to ordinary caravans on the whole.
It is precisely because of the Qihada team that the methods are not too ruthless, but the caravans of the Roman Empire, when they want to carry out a qiē commercial activity in the future, are just helplessly admonishing each other to be vigilant, but there is no trace and evidence that can make these caravans surrender.
In addition, Zihada also ordered the warring team to find and conquer some scattered horse thieves encountered on the way at any time, and they were really ruthless, and gradually, invisibly, they cleared the obstacles for the caravan, making the ordinary caravan much less risky.
Without influence, the Roman legions in the city of Hasara, in a short time, did not have the idea of finding out what was going on and destroying them.
The knight, who was in charge of delivering the news, quickly rushed to the small canyon, found Zihada, and conveyed the news that the Roman caravan had just left the city.
"Brothers, big business is coming!" said Zihada, mounted his horse and shouted to the crowd.
"Chief, what kind of big business?" as soon as everyone heard this, someone immediately asked with unconcealed excitement.
"The caravan of the Rossi family, carrying a large number of gems and gold coins, went to the Ice and Snow Kingdom to exchange for white bears and other furs...... Their wealth is enough to make a lot of money for everyone in our team. Zihada said loudly with emotion.
Hearing that there was a huge wealth, the scene immediately burst into cheers. As long as this big deal is done, their actions can be said to have quickly obtained a rich result.
"However, it was the Rossi family, the wealthy family of the Roman Empire. After a while, someone gradually reacted and remembered the identity and origin of the caravan.
Qi Hada said disdainfully: "What is the Rossi family! Big deal, rob him, just change places to hide." Or, if you are scared, you can go to other cities or other countries and continue to enjoy yourself. If you don't dare, you need to stay in the canyon lest anyone tell you. ”
As soon as Qihada's words came out, those who had objections suddenly did not dare to speak.
In fact, it's a troop of horse thieves.
If there is an objection, there is no doubt that he is the enemy of everyone, and he does not dare to rob it, but he has to rob it. Besides, robbery doesn't mean you're going to die.
A horse thief is a man who takes his life to fight for wealth. Since he is a horse thief, he is not afraid of death, he is afraid of some wealthy family.
Zihada was satisfied that everyone was unanimous and shouted, "Let's go!"
Qihada's horse team, known as the "Blade of Qihada", is fast and elusive. When robbing, they often push forward layer by layer like a clan, and use the least amount of effort to complete the entire robbery activity. Unlike other horse thieves, they often rush up in a swarm, which is often prone to cause huge damage. However, those horse thieves are often a rabble, everyone only cooperates to rob, not an organization, and sometimes, if they run slowly, they grab less, and they have to rush forward. Therefore, after the cooperation of ordinary horse thieves, they often go their separate ways, but there is no organizational discipline to speak of.
Qihada's horse team is different, because there are 100 Mountain Eagle members as the foundation, so no matter how they fight, they do not lose their combat effectiveness, but they keep fighting, attracting more strong people to join. Feeling the poor discipline of the horse thieves, Qihada deliberately set up obstacles to the entrance assessment.
In fact, those who can become the "Blade of Zihada" are trustworthy.
According to the rules of the Blade of Zihada, the departure represents the beginning of the action.
The horse team is divided into three parts, the first part is Zihada's subordinates, the Mountain Eagle special combat team. They were to crush the caravan's guards head-on. The second and third parts will go around the sides of the caravan. When the Mountain Eagle Squad defeats the caravan guards, they will attack the caravan from both sides and crush the caravan's resistance in one fell swoop. The caravan has no resistance mentality, and it is a caravan that can be slaughtered.
"Horse thief!" the caravan of the Rossi family, the moment it met with the Qihada team, someone shouted a warning.
"Dare to rob the caravan of the Rossi family!" Someone in the caravan was furious,
"Roman cavalry assembled!"
The caravan guards were not only the regular army of the Roman Empire, but also the cavalry regiments of the Roman Empire.
The cavalry legion of the Roman Empire was the magic weapon of the Roman Empire to conquer all directions.
Because of the Roman legions, the caravan of the entire Rossi family did not panic. When more than 1,000 Roman cavalry assembled, some of the temporary guards composed of slaves took over the entire caravan and formed a circle, surrounding the valuables and big men in the center of the caravan to protect it.
Zihada had no intention of rushing forward, he ordered the procession, about three hundred meters away from the caravan, to stop, and also displayed his flag.
Yes, in order to build the prestige of the Qihada Blade, Qihada also made a flag for his team, and every time he robbed, he displayed the flag.
At this time, when you see the banner of the Zihada Blade, you can choose to surrender.
If you choose to surrender, the Blade of Zihada will loot according to the caravan's cargo.
However, this time, Zihada met the Rossi family.
The caravan master of the Rossi family is not a weak person. They control the city of Hasara, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Rossi family is the most dǐng top and powerful family in the Roman Empire.
A wealthy family with such pride cannot stand the exploitation of a group of horse thieves.
Therefore, when the caravan master found the Blade of Zihada, he gave the Roman cavalry a high bounty.
"One horse thief will be rewarded with one gold coin, and the leader of the horse thief will be rewarded with one hundred gold coins. ”
"Hah!"
The Roman cavalry let out a roar in unison. This voice was full of anger and confidence. This was the pride of the Roman cavalry regiment.
"Captain, this is the elite Roman cavalry regiment, what tactics do we use?" the team member asked.
Zihada laughed and said, "Any elite cavalry regiment, they will not be our opponents!" Zihada said, thought for a while, and said: "Everyone be careful later, the enemy is the Roman regular army, and there may be professionals among them!
"Concentrate your firepower and destroy the pros first!" replied in unison.
"Okay! Remember, you must not be surrounded!" Zihada admonished.
Then, Zihada used the walkie-talkie to give instructions to the players on both sides. Only when the Roman cavalry regiment was heavily defeated could they attack and take the Roman cavalry by surprise.
Zihada smiled slightly as he watched the caravan gradually form a defensive circle, and outside the defensive circle, the charging team composed of more than a thousand Roman cavalry.
Those defensive rings, with grenades and smoke grenades, are not too easy to solve.
Except for the Mountain Eagle Special Combat Officers, which member of the Qihada Blade is not a good hand at using bows and arrows? Therefore, the main problem that Zihada needs to solve is mainly the Roman cavalry regiment.
Defeat the Roman cavalry regiment, and then slowly wear down the caravan of the Rossi family.
This time, Zihada is not prepared to charge any protection fees.
Driving......
Zihada did not personally lead the charge of the army, but stood behind and commanded. There were several Mountain Hawks players, assigned to the remaining two teams, who were holding walkie-talkies. Zihada will order them to fight at the most critical time.
Beside Zihada, there are five members of the Mountain Eagles with sniper rifles, and they are all excellent snipers.
Leading the charge is the team leader of the mountain eagle - Li Lei. Li Lei raised his horsewhip and shouted at the team members: "For the sake of the empire, for the sake of the family, for the sake of wealth, let us destroy them and rob them of everything!"
The Mountain Eagles had golden eyes and excitement, and they also raised their whips.
"Kill!"
More than 80 members of the Mountain Eagle team, under Li Lei's order, pulled up their horses and rushed forward.
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves and gunshots mixed together, like a rumbling sound.
A thousand Roman cavalry, the hardest blow they had ever received.
Before they got close to the enemy, not even the distance they threw their guns and shot arrows, they heard a thumping sound. Countless Roman soldiers, falling from their horses.
A thousand Roman cavalry, still more than a hundred meters away from the enemy, lost nearly half of their men.
What's even more terrifying is that the charging posture of the Roman cavalry was actually stopped by the mountain eagle special combat team of less than a hundred. Of course, they were stopped by submachine guns.
At this time, Zihada saw that the charge of the Roman cavalry had failed, and immediately ordered the horse teams on both sides to attack.
The caravan was in a panic, but it quickly stopped.
Seeing this, Qihada knew that in the caravan of the Rossi family, there were capable people with high command ability.
The Roman cavalry wanted to regroup, but the mountain eagle cavalry did not give them a chance. Approaching the Roman cavalry, the mountain eagle cavalry turned. Li Lei, about fifty meters away from the Roman cavalry, turned. The advantage of the Mountain Eagle Special Combat Team is the submachine gun, and Li Lei will not step forward to engage in any white-knuckle combat with the Roman cavalry. The white-knuckle battle will be fought by the rest of the members of the Zihada Blade, that is, the two-sided horse team. The Mountain Eagle Cavalry will be not far away, providing fire support.
Under the command of Zihada, the Roman cavalry retreated directly. They did not retreat into the caravan's defensive circle, but directly evacuated the caravan, wanting to escape.
Qihada was stunned for a moment, and his eyes flashed. Obviously, the commanders of these Roman cavalry were not simple either. Zihada visually inspected the Roman cavalry, and there were at least three or four hundred horsemen, and the combat effectiveness was still some. If they retreat into the caravan's defensive circle, they will definitely cause damage to the constructed defensive circle, which will invisibly destroy the caravan's defenses. The fact that these Roman cavalry chose to evacuate did not mean that they had failed. When the zihada attacked the caravan, these Roman cavalry could turn back and fight again.
Zihada immediately spoke into the walkie-talkie and ordered Li Lei to lead more than 30 Mountain Eagle members to continue to pursue the fleeing Roman cavalry, and he could not give the Roman cavalry a chance to fight back.
The rest of the Mountain Eagles took out grenades and smoke grenades, abandoned the Roman cavalry, and assisted the two horse teams of Zihada Blade coming from both sides to attack the caravan. (To be continued.) )
