In this way, the three men chased for a long time, until the shadow of the small outpost disappeared around a bend.

The two Lombard pursuers were already within twenty paces of Ron, babbling and screaming, presumably ordering Ron to stop and surrender.

Ron glanced at the sides with a glimpse of the pursuers, who had entered the ambush circle, and he simply stopped and fell to the ground with a thud.

"Haha~ he ~ cast ~ dropped, catch ~ catch him." The Lombard soldier who had been chasing the most was smiling on his face, which had turned pale from his strength, and a few silver coins were in hand.

However, just as the two Lombard soldiers were immersed in receiving the torture of prisoners of war and receiving their rewards, a sudden change of events occurred.

Andrew, the leader of the first squad of the fourth squadron, flashed out of the shade of the trees beside Ron, followed by the five soldiers of the first squadron......

The pursuers were instantly turned into prisoners, and then into two bloody corpses......

At the small outpost at the intersection, the four Lombard defenders looked around vigilantly, the Provençal exile just now must be a spy who came to the sentinel to spy on the military situation, otherwise the two companions would not have chased for so long.

Now this is the place where the two countries are at war, but they must not be careless, so the four Lombards who stayed behind stretched their bows and arrows, and their heartstrings were tense.

It was a long time before three figures appeared on the road south of the outpost—two soldiers in Lombard uniforms and a Provençal beggar "tied" with tattered hands behind them.

Apparently the captive "outcast beggar" was not honest and struggled all the way to break free from the escort of the two Lombards.

Seeing that the three of them were getting closer and closer to the small outpost, the commander of the defenders in the small outpost yelled at the two "Lombardy" soldiers who had returned from escorting, "How is it?" Are there any anomalies? ”

Before the two "Lombardy" soldiers could answer the commander's question, the escorted "homeless" suddenly burst out and wanted to escape, and one soldier stepped forward and kicked the "captive homeless" to the ground, and then the two soldiers kicked the prisoner on the ground fiercely, causing several people in the small outpost to laugh and cheer continuously.

The two "Lombard" soldiers kicked and beat the captives for a while, and the captives struggled even more, so that they had to hold the captives on the ground, and then beckoned to the small outpost, signaling for someone to come and help subdue the guys on the ground.

"You two, go up and take a hand." The commander of the small outpost ordered two soldiers around him to come forward to help.

The two archers leaned their bows to the side and walked out of the outpost towards the two accomplices not far away.

"You two stupid people are so useless, two people can't subdue a mongrel." The archers who stepped forward to help sneered at the two soldiers who were holding down their captives.

"I said you~" The voice of the other archer choked as they spotted blood stains on the armor of two Lombard soldiers and two completely unfamiliar faces.

"Run! ~" The archer who reacted first turned to flee, and a short knife with a wooden handle had already been plunged into his back.

"You, no~" The other soldier reacted a little slowly, until the rising "Lombard soldier" stabbed his companion in the back, and he realized that the face in the familiar armor was actually completely unfamiliar.

"Enemy~"

As soon as he said a word, the captives on the ground grabbed him by the legs, dragged him backwards, and fell to the ground with a thud, followed by a wooden-handled hunting knife that stabbed him in the chest.

At the same time, more than a dozen ghostly figures rushed from around the outpost......

There was no Lombard at the junction outpost, at least not one to breathe.

After a while, the small outpost was set on fire, leaving the naked Lombard corpse, stripped of its armor and weapons, bursting with burnt incense in the flames......

If the battle between the two teams led by Otto and Ron was somewhat intrigued, then the battle of the Sentinels led by Angus himself could definitely be regarded as a fair cavalry duel and charge.

It's not because Angus's style is very different from Otto and Ron's, and it's a pre-designed ambush with clear soup.

According to Angus's original plan, he will lead the sentry cavalry to set up an ambush in a place where the Lombard patrol cavalry must pass through every day, and when the patrolling Lombard cavalry passes, a few traps are stepped on, a few sharp arrows fly wildly, plus a few cavalry charge and slash, it will not take a bowl of time for the Lombard cavalry to be completely destroyed.

Unless the Lombards suddenly changed course, such a thing was too accidental.

However, "accidental" things often happen - today, the Lombard cavalry did not follow the established route, and before they reached the ambush of Angus, they turned their horses and hurried towards the small village where Otto was responsible for the raid.

Of course, Angus didn't know that these cavalry were just worried that the few Provençal women captured two days ago were still hiding in the small village, and today the commander of the cavalry team agreed with the defenders of the small village to entertain the women, so he changed the route of the march and patrol in the past few days, and planned to go around to the small village and delay for a while.

Angus didn't know this, he just thought that Odo's attack was blocked or the enemy got the news to go for reinforcements, so Angus didn't care about the ambush or not, and directly stopped the pace of the Lombard cavalry with a horn, and then led the sentry cavalry to cover it directly.

The Lombards were not known for their cavalry, but the cavalry patrol that Angus encountered was not inadequate.

The Lombard cavalry did not show any panic when they heard a different sound of the horn, they reined in the reins and turned their horses' heads, and confronted the sentry cavalry led by Angus on the road at a distance of one or two hundred paces.

Six against nine, without the slightest advantage but not an absolute disadvantage, so the Lombard cavalry did not choose to flee. On the contrary, from the beginning of the war between the two countries to the present, the Lombard cavalry has hardly lost to the Provençals on the battlefield, so the few cavalry of the Lombards have the confidence of all enemies in the world.

But apparently these people are overconfident.

When Lusignan and Jafar led Felix Rader and others down the road with the Lombard cavalry in the first round, two Lombard horsemen were cut in the belly and their breastbone was shattered, and the other fell off their horses in the scuffle.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the remaining three Lombard cavalry hurriedly ran down the road and escaped from the sentry cavalry around the bend.

Want to run? Everyone is a cavalryman, why let you run!

So Angus gave the order, and the nine sentry cavalry chased after the Lombard cavalry......

On the hillside behind the garrison's farm, Art's face was unusually embarrassed, for it was past noon, and even he could see a puff of smoke rising from the northwest, during which a panicked Lombard soldier ran back to the farm from the northeast.

But the fighting that broke out everywhere did not attract the attention of the Lombards of the farmstead at all, and not only did they not plan to send troops to the rescue, but even the soldier who had been "missed" from the hands of Otto in the northeast was placed in the defensive force on the wall of the farmstead.

The original strategy of luring the snake out of the hole through the tactic of flowering on all sides turned into an early warning message for the enemy to take precautions in advance......
