The tight shield formation of more than 20 people blocked the impact of most of the bandits, and with the short spears and long swords that kept stabbing out after the shield array stabilized the formation, and the heavy hammer battle axes that smashed hard, the bandits in front of the shield suffered a large number of casualties, and in less than a bag of water, five bandits had fallen in front of the shield array.

Seeing that the shield array could not break through head-on for a while, a bandit leader with three minions tried to bypass the shield array and attack the flank.

Art, who was pulling the knight's sword out of the belly of one of the bandits, saw several bandits trying to bypass the shield array, and shouted to Ron, who was on the left side of the shield array, "Ron, there is an enemy on the flank."

Ron knocked down an enemy in front of him, then pulled Jason out of the shield array and slashed at him with his short sword, and ran towards the bandits on the left.

By the time Ron reached the rear, several of the bandits had already cut down two coachmen who had not had time to hide under the carriage, and had already raised their axes to slash at a screaming soldier on the ground. In the midst of the crisis, Ron did not hesitate at all, picked up a short spear on the ground as a javelin and threw it at the bandit who was holding the axe, the hand axe that fell on the chest of the wounded soldier followed its owner and was bounced away by the short spear, and the moment the axe bandit fell, Jason had already rushed forward with the short sword and slashed the long knife in the hand of the other minion through a gap. After Jason joined, Ron and Jason formed a shield formation on their backs to fend off the bandits besieging on three sides.

Benson, who had escaped the occasion, stopped rolling, and after the initial panic and pain, he regained his blood, knowing that if Ron and Jason couldn't stop the bandits bypassing them, he wouldn't be able to escape the next axe.

Benson's left shoulder was hit by an arrow and his entire left arm was numb, he took a deep breath, supported his body with his right hand and slowly stood up, pulled out a short knife with a wooden handle on his waist and screamed and stabbed at the three bandits besieging Ron and Jason, the bandit who was slashing Ron's wooden shield didn't notice Benson rushing behind him, Benson took a few steps in pain, and hit the bandit's back at once, the bandit was carried by the impact, and the wooden-handled short knife did not enter the back. The bandit twisted his head back, and a mouthful of blood rushed up from his chest and lungs, and he collapsed to the ground, convulsing.

After losing an opponent, Ron and Jason's pressure suddenly decreased, and after being stabbed in the shallow arm, Ron stabbed the broadsword in his hand into the abdomen of the bandit leader, and the remaining minions were finally unable to support Ron and Jason's alternating chopping, and blocked and retreated, trying to return to the group.

In front of the shield array, the bandits had spontaneously given up the strong attack, trying to go around the flank to avoid the sharp blades that were constantly stabbing in the shield array, but the shield array was constantly adjusting its direction under the command of Yat and Odo, and always aimed at most of the bandits.

The bandits scattered on both sides of the shield array had been stared at by Baron Baron Berrion and the two squires who had just returned. Baron Berion and his two attendants were warriors who had experienced a fierce battle, and they did not have the slightest fear in the face of seven or eight bandits, and there was no trick in their hands with their swords and spears, and their movements were simple and simple but deadly, and in a few moments, three bandits had fallen under Baron Berion's sword.

Over time, the situation in the open space began to turn around. Although a few soldiers in the patrol team also fell, the bandits had already thrown more than a dozen lives in front of the shield array, but the shield array did not have the slightest intention of being breached, and the gap that had just been exposed by the soldiers falling would immediately be filled by the people next to them.

After killing the last bandit who bypassed the shield, Ron did not rush back to the shield, he took Jason and ran quickly to the tethered horse, untied the reins of the two horses, jumped on the horse's back, twisted the horse's head, circled in a semicircle in the direction of the bandit's back, and when the horse's speed increased, he threw a short spear at the bandit, and then pulled out the broadsword at his waist and slammed it at the bandit's back.

A few minions behind the bandits saw the cavalry rushing from behind the flanks and shouted, "Cavalry!" The cavalry rushed over!! Ignoring the accomplices who were fighting hard in front of him, he began to flee in the direction of his own commuting.

Several bandits, who had heard the alarm of their accomplices, turned around and caught a glimpse of the two cavalrymen rushing towards them, and they all retreated backwards, which led to a chain reaction of several people around them.

When Ron and Jason galloped over, seven or eight bandits had already escaped more than ten steps, and Ron and Jason drove their horses into the bandits, only to hear a muffled sound of broken bones and warps, and several bandits were knocked down and knocked away by the horses......

"Disperse the pursuit!"

"Roar!"

The shield array split into five or six three-man battle formations with a loud roar, slashing at the retreating bandits......

"Art, stop chasing, get on your horse and intercept them, don't let them run into the jungle." Seeing that the battle was decided, Baron Berion stopped Art, who was planning to lead his troops in pursuit. Reflexively, he ran back to the bolted horse, took off the reins, turned on his horse, and led the two attendants towards the edge of the forest.

Art also rolled over and got on his horse and chased after him.

......……

On the other side, the sharp-faced monkey cheek leader was remorseful at the moment, and he had guessed in advance that this group of men in black would be difficult to deal with, so he thought about it again and again and came up with a tactic to paralyze the enemy and then attack suddenly.

For the past three days, dozens of bandits have been hiding in the woods more than five miles from the convoy, and they have been eating hard bread and cold water for several days, in order to prevent the convoy's guards from discovering their whereabouts, hoping to create the illusion that no one dares to make up their minds in the convoy. In fact, they basically did. In the past, the men in black would patrol the surrounding area for two miles in advance before camping, and then send soldiers to patrol and post sentry without interruption, but today they only hastily inspected the perimeter of the camp without careful investigation, and the person in charge of the sentry did not enter the sentry post for a long time.

The sharp-faced monkey gills leader decisively seized the moment and urged a surprise attack before dark. However, he would not have expected that the black-robed soldiers in the camp reacted so quickly, they had not yet broken out of the dense forest, and the black-robed soldiers had already begun to assemble, and when they seized the last opportunity to rush out of the dense forest, more than a dozen black-robed soldiers had already assembled in the clearing, and black-robed soldiers continued to join the shield array......

But now the sharp-faced monkey gills leader had no time to think about why his own side, which was superior in numbers, was defeated so easily, and his thigh, which had been pierced by a short spear in the middle, began to go numb, and in order to quietly approach the convoy, their horses were hidden in the depths of the dense forest, and the five or six minions who had fled earlier had already burrowed into the dense forest, and once those guys took away the horses that saved their lives, he really couldn't run away if he was injured.

There were still a dozen steps to go into the dense forest, and he scolded the two men who had helped him to flee for their lives to speed up their pace and staggered towards the dense forest.

Seeing that he was about to enter the dense forest, several cavalry suddenly rushed out on the right side, and the sharp-faced monkey cheek leader was knocked to the ground by a war horse before he could turn his head to take a look, and there was darkness in front of him......

......……

It was already dark, and the clearing in front of the dense forest was lit with bonfires.

Half a mile around the camp, Otto personally led two full battle groups to patrol non-stop armed to guard against possible enemy situations, after all, a dozen minions had escaped into the dense forest during the evening battle, and their big leader was now imprisoned in the camp, and they could risk robbing the camp at any time.

Around the camp's campfires, the soldiers of the Frontier Patrol who had survived the bloody battle munched on the burnt bacon and boasted loudly about their bravery and achievements in the evening battle.

In a large army tent, Spencer was "treating" a wounded soldier with a sliced belly with the help of three soldiers, and he desperately stuffed the intestines of the wounded soldier into his stomach, and the blood that kept gushing out soaked Spencer's hands, and the severe pain made the wounded soldier struggle and scream.

Spencer yelled at a few of the soldiers who were helping, "Waste, let the three of you hold him down, you're all soft eggs?" ”

Glancing at a wounded soldier sitting next to him with an arrow in the shoulder, Spencer turned his head and said, "Who's that, blind, come over and help." Why don't you get an arrow, pretend to be dead, and get over quickly. ”

After scolding the wounded soldier, Spencer continued to stuff his intestines into his belly, and kept nagging: "It's really unlucky, I'm tired like an animal every day, and I have to act as a "barber", I knew that it was better to be a soldier than ......

The screams of the slaughtering pigs in the small tent next to him drowned out the roars of the wounded soldiers in the tent, and Baron Berrion watched with interest as Art smashed the fingers of the ugly creature with the sharp face with the hilt of his sword, and each one was a roar that shook the sky.

"I'll ask you one last time, you don't have any other accomplices, where is the bandit's nest?"

The sharp-faced monkey's cheeks were distorted, and his teeth were grinning, and his teeth had bitten out blood. Three of his fingers had been shattered, and he was fainting in pain.

"Leave me alone, and I'll give you all my belongings." The sharp-faced monkey's cheeks struggled to squeeze a sentence out of the blood-nourishing teeth.

Art took a pinch of salt handed over by Ron and slowly sprinkled it on the leg wound of the sharp-faced monkey cheek, who looked at the white powder sprinkled on the blood hole on the inner thigh in horror, "Mongrel, what did you sprinkle?" ”

Art stared at the slowly melting grains of salt at the mouth of the blood cave and said, "Don't worry, you'll know in a while." As he spoke, he pressed the salt into the wound with his fingers.

"Ah!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”

......……

"Ron, you and Jason hurry back to Sapp tomorrow morning, tell Lord Galvin about the war here, and ask him to bring his troops here to take over the prisoners."

"By the way, you tell him that the bandits of the southern hills are basically here, and the few remaining minions won't have a big impact on his caravan. So don't forget to pay me a certain amount of money in advance, and we'll discuss the rest when we get back safely. ”

"Master, we have cleared the bandits of the southern hills so quickly, I'm afraid Lord Galvin won't be paid so easily." Ron had seen the cunning of a merchant, not to mention the fact that the merchant was dressed as a nobleman.

Art wiped the slippery blood on his hand onto the curtain of the military tent and said, "I guess Lord Galvin is a reputable nobleman, and he won't care about this little money." Besides, he still has so many cattle and wagons waiting for us to send back. ”

Art lifted Ron's still bleeding arm and looked at it for a while, and said, "Go find someone to bandage it, and then go down and rest and eat something." By the way, go get Buzz and Tuba. Forget about Kazak, he's injured and let him rest a little longer. ”

"Yes, sir."

Seeing Ron walking towards the bonfire, Art turned around and entered his military tent, two of Baron Berion's attendants were dragging the body of the sharp-faced monkey cheek out of the tent, Art entered the tent and said to Baron Berion: "My lord, we should discuss whether it is necessary to annihilate these bandits in one fell swoop~"
