7. Engagement
More than 140 bandits rode like mad dogs into the interior of Tata Town, and they were divided into three groups of men and horses in the run, each of which was evenly divided, each with more than 40 people, and this ability to adapt was what the three of Livado believed they could buy enough time for themselves.

The three groups of centaurs galloped towards the left front, the front, and the right front, and they not only divided the men and horses in an instant, but also divided their respective territories, although the direction of the three groups of people was different, but their movements were the same.
The first thing they had prepared for the fire was a one-meter-long torch wrapped in linen cloth soaked in high-burning resin, which could burn for a long time without being extinguished by strong winds.
As old bandits, they clearly knew that only when the robbed object panicked, they would be easy to start, so the three groups of people tacitly agreed to keep setting fire for the time being.
The houses of ordinary residents of Tata Town are all wooden, basically one by one, most of them are surrounded by a row of wood in a square, with a herringbone plank on the head, and layers of leaves and mud mixed to protect from the rain, this is the house of most residents, this house is okay for rainproof, but it is impossible to set fire.
A flammable resin torch struck on the wooden walls of these houses will leave a burning resin-stained flame on the walls, which will quickly set the walls on fire and quickly burn the entire house to the ground.
The inhabitants of the nearby town of Tata were woken up by the running horses, but before they could scold the patrol for taking the wrong medicine and running in the middle of the night, they found their house on fire.
In an instant, they all lost their sleepiness, and they all picked up buckets, wooden basins, and everything that could draw water, picked up the water tank, the water in the well, and began to extinguish the fire.
It's on fire, it's on fire. Everyone, come and help!
My wife hurry up, it's on fire, come and help put out the fire!
Third child, get up and join me to help put out the fire!
Don't panic, the women and children go to fetch water, and the men bring me something to put out the fire!
Some sober-minded residents know that everyone is like a headless fly, not only can not extinguish the fire, but also because everyone is chaotic and stampede accidents, causing more serious consequences, they rely on their usual relationships to organize from the people they know, and take everyone to effectively fight the fire.
A large number of horses running in the middle of the night, a house that suddenly burned, everything indicates that something is wrong with Tata Town!
The scattered three groups of people galloped for a while, setting fire to about twenty percent of the houses in Tata Town, and successfully caused a huge panic to the residents of Tata Town, they didn't want to burn it anymore, but the patrol team of Tata Town came, and the three groups of people gathered quickly, and they had to face it.
Looking at the burning houses and the weeping residents, everyone on the patrol was eager to tear the robbers to pieces at once.
All the members of the patrol were residents of Tata Town, maybe there was a home in those burned houses, they gritted their teeth, and angrily whipped the horses on the buttocks under them, and the horses ran faster towards the bandits in pain, and they would collide with the bandits' cavalry, and the patrol members unconsciously held their weapons tighter.
The residents of Tata Town are still very lucky, thanks to the quick arrival of the patrol, the bandits only set fires and did not go further to rob the residents, otherwise, I don't know how many people would die for resisting the bandits.
Rumble!
The men and horses on both sides collided together, and the patrol members and bandits who first collided together fell to the ground due to the tremendous force, and the people who followed later swung their big swords and slashed at each other without waiting for the other to get close.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, more than a dozen people died instantly, most of these dead people fell to the ground and were trampled to death by friendly horses, and only a few were hacked to death by weapons.
After the two sides came into contact, everyone fought the enemy in front of them, and the scene instantly changed from a head-to-head battle to a melee.
Minus the dead, there are still more than one hundred and thirty bandits, and the patrol is less, the patrol that originally had about ninety people was taken away by Edu Ten people, plus a few people lost in the collision, only seventy people were left.
The patrol team is only more than half of the bandits, because both sides are mixed together, and it is a one-on-one situation for the time being, and the patrol team has at least one piece of leather armor, and the bandits can do a weapon in their hands, and the bandits' numerical advantage cannot be played for the time being, and the patrol team has taken advantage of it.
But this advantage did not last long, and the patrol team had to face two bandits alone, and the bandits cooperated more strongly than the patrol, and gradually began to suppress the patrol.
As second-level warriors, Sados and Luca are stronger in strength, speed, and endurance than this group of bandits who are all first-level warriors, and the two of them clearly know that this group of bandits in front of them does not even have a command, and they are definitely not the main force of the enemy.
Sados raised the two-handed sword in his hand, slashed downward, and divided the bandit in front of him into two with weapons, and the powerful move must consume a lot of physical strength, but now is not the time to save physical strength, Sados kicked away a thief again, came to Luca's side and said worriedly: Luca, the situation is not right, the other party has no second-level warriors, I don't know what to pay attention to, I am quick to decide, I am afraid that if their main force comes back for a long time, they will play eggs, don't keep all your strength to kill!
Lukka nodded in agreement, he also knew that they did not have any advantage in other aspects except for better equipment, and the number of people was absolutely weak, and every second that passed, a patrol member might be killed by a bandit, at the moment, he no longer kept, and began to kill the enemy with all his might, striving to kill one more enemy to reduce the pressure on the patrol partners.
As soon as the two of them cooperated, the lethality immediately increased several times, and after a while, they killed five bandits as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, and the bandits were not stupid, seeing that the two were so powerful, ten bandits immediately surrounded them and restrained Sados and Luca.
Sados and Lukka are much stronger than the bandits, and neither of them has been seriously injured until now, but the ordinary patrol members are not as powerful as them, not only did they die three, but basically all of them had a lot of scars.
I saw a patrol member stab the big sword in his hand in the face of the bandit, and the bandit reacted quickly and dodged the fatal sword.
Before the bandit who was almost killed could fight back, another bandit on the side had already raised his big sword in his hand and cut it directly from above, and he was about to kill him.
Between life and death, the patrol members shouted, burst out of their potential, and quickly withdrew the big sword that stabbed out, narrowly blocking this slash, but how could a slash with the bandit use a lot of strength have no effect at all?
Sure enough, the tiger's mouth in the patrol member's hand cracked instantly, and he almost couldn't catch the big sword, he wanted to fight back, only to feel a pain in his chest, the bandit who was almost killed by him had already pierced him with a sword, struggled for a while, and the patrol member died unwillingly!
Such situations abound, and when the combat effectiveness of the two sides is about the same, the difference in numbers is simply not something that ordinary equipment can erase!
The casualty ratio of the two sides is one to two, that is, the patrol members need to pay the price of two deaths to kill a bandit, which shows that the combat effectiveness of the bandits under the command of Livado is overwhelming to the patrol!
Sados and Lukka were in pain when their patrol partners kept falling beside them, and they secretly resolved that they could no longer watch their partners fall day and night!
Lukka found an opportunity to make a secret signal to Sados, and Sados nodded knowingly, and then Lukka deliberately sold a flaw, at the cost of a stab wound in the arm, and killed two bandits who were attacked at the cost of his own injuries.
After the death of the two bandits, the attack rhythm of the circle surrounding the two of Sados obviously paused for more than a second, and Sados immediately seized this rare second, raised his big sword and slashed the three bandits!
Two were killed and three were injured, the circle was broken in an instant, and even if the other bandits wanted to regroup again, it was impossible to succeed for a while.
The two seized this rare opportunity and rushed forward to slash several robbers, not because they didn't want to kill them, but because the bandits had already reacted and surrounded them again.
This time the bandits changed their tactics, they no longer had the idea of killing Sados and Luca, as long as the two of them were trapped here and not let them support the others, they had the advantage of numbers, they didn't need to take risks, just wait for the other bandits to free their hands, they could easily deal with the two people in front of them.
The fighting continued, and it was unknown how many more patrolmen would make it to survive until Edu arrived with reinforcements.
Lawson slept deeply, but was soon awakened by the sound of residents fighting fires, and during his days in the woods, he developed the habit of waking up to the changes around him, no matter how deep he slept.
He quickly got up and ran outside the house, because the bandits' cavalry set fire and left, Rosen only saw that there were only residents near Star's house carrying buckets of water, running towards the burning house to put out the fire, for a while, he didn't know what was happening.
At this time, Rosen saw Star yelling loudly: Quickly push the one that does not burn up to the barrier, otherwise the fire will only get bigger and bigger!
As a teacher of the children's exercise group, Starr has a high prestige in the small town of Tata, and as soon as he stood up, everyone pushed the house to the house that was about to burn down as he commanded, as if they had found the backbone, and the flames without incendiary objects no longer expanded, and were slowly controlled by the residents.
Lawson, who can only do death magic, can only watch, even if he wants to help, he can't do it, he doesn't dare to summon skeletons to extinguish the fire, otherwise the residents of Tata Town, including Starr, will stop extinguishing the fire and burn Lawson to death first.
Rosen has always been very glad that he met Uncle Darker after crossing over, Uncle Darker not only saved him who couldn't support him, but also taught Lawson the magic of death, and once again in Dark's popular science of Lawson, Lawson knew that the death magician was not easy to mix in the Luofu Continent, and basically reached the level where everyone shouted and beat the rats crossing the street.
Who told those death mage seniors to want to have an undead natural disaster at every turn and make a big news, Rosen also wants to teach those seniors how to be a person if he has the ability.
For the first time, Lawson was eager to learn the magic of another department.
When Sados began to go all out, Edu finally found Star, who was directing the residents to extinguish the fire, and Edu shouted to Star: Star, Sados asked you to bring someone to support him with me.
Edu didn't say who the enemy was, Star knew that the enemy was not simple, and he immediately said to Addu: Okay, I'll go to assemble the youth group first, it is estimated that there are about thirty people with combat effectiveness, Edu, you first take someone to the weapons warehouse to get thirty sets of equipment, and then come back here and go with me to support Sados.
Lawson, who has lived in Tata Town for a while, likes this town very much, he can't fight fires, and he can't fight? Faced with a group of enemies who could not defend against mental attacks, Rosen said that he would fight twenty, so he asked Star: I will go too, but I am also a magician, and my combat effectiveness is still very high!
Good! Star is glad that Lawson also helped, the battle with and without a magician is completely different, in this high magic world, the magician is the king of war!
So, Star took Lawson to gather the Youth League, and as soon as they found a member of the Youth League, they asked him to find another one, so that the search was faster and faster, and soon the Youth League was gathered at Star's doorstep.
Edu also returned in time, he brought not only thirty sets of leather armor, but also fifteen horses, the usual training of the youth has a practice of wearing equipment, wearing leather armor is not a difficult task for them, they quickly and skillfully put on their wallets, pick up weapons, and ride horses to support Sados and them.
Rosen was given preferential treatment because he was a magician, he rode alone, everyone else could only squeeze in, and two people rode on a horse.
Rosen's horseback riding skills are not good, the first time in his life to ride a horse was after coming to Tata Town, after the mental power increased greatly, Rosen found that his memory and learning ability have become stronger, and under Star's teaching, Rosen learned to ride a horse.
Riding a horse or something is not difficult for Rosen, of course, Rosen, who has only learned to ride a horse for a few days, can only stabilize his body so that he does not fall, like now riding a horse at high speed is not good at it, Star knows that Rosen's riding skills are not good, he takes Rosen with him.
Don't keep your hands when the time comes, these robbers are murderous without blinking, and they would rather regret it later than be killed because of their feelings! Star gently instructed Rosen, and after a period of contact, he knew that Rosen was a kind-hearted person.
Got Star, thank you. Rosen thanked him, and was reminded by Star, he remembered that he died of a terrier with too many words, so he made up his mind that he would never be kind to women, and as long as he saw a robber, he would give them a mental shock!
