"You ......!" Orion screamed in horror, and suddenly stopped, for he felt a tingling sensation coming from his neck as he opened his mouth, which had been cut by the sharp blade of his sword.

There was no doubt that if he dared to yell half a sentence more, the next second, the human head would roll to the ground, splashing blood three feet high.

The old man sat inside, completely dumbfounded when he saw this scene, and a pair of eyeballs were dripping and turning in the sunken eye sockets, like two glass balls that did not know which way to roll.

"This damn Monet, let him let him run there?"

The old man smacked his lips and muttered such a sentence, but the voice was not loud, and the soldiers who restrained him did not stop him.

Several sleeping robbers were woken up in a daze, and before they could figure out what was going on, they were stuck in the neck with a steel knife.

At this time, Liszt walked into the house and looked around, his face was as cold as a murderous god, and finally his gaze was fixed on the old man, and he asked: "Old man, I heard that you have just said that someone has captured a few nobles, and told me where they are being held, and I will spare your lives." ”

"Noble lord......" The old man's legs were weak at that time, and a fishy smell came from under his crotch, and he was actually scared to pee, and he said while trembling: "I said, I will tell you everything I know, please don't kill me." ”

Liszt had a look of disgust on his face, obviously tired of the old man's peeing, but he said, "Okay, I promise......"

Halfway through his words, suddenly, a violent shout of killing came from the southwest, and the entire valley suddenly boiled like a boiling pot.

Countless robbers rushed out of the manor in the middle of the valley with shouts, and rushed towards the southwest, carrying dung forks, homemade maces, wooden sticks and other messy weapons in their hands, like a group of monkeys crossing a mountain ridge.

The noise outside was huge, but Liszt in the house was calm, the expression on his face did not change at all, he knew that this was the beginning of a feint attack by a large army in the southwest.

The house at the east entrance was more than a kilometer away from the middle of the valley, and even farther from the main road to the southwest, reaching three thousand meters, so that as long as no one came to check on the situation, their whereabouts would never be discovered.

The robbers didn't know this, they heard the shouting and thought that their own people were coming, and the expressions on their faces suddenly became arrogant, some even wanted to shout to attract the attention of their own people, and others wanted to threaten Liszt and the others in turn.

For this kind of person, Liszt waved his hand, the soldiers raised their knives and fell, and the round heads rolled to the ground, this is war, although Liszt is not a cold-blooded and ruthless monster, but he also knows that there is no right or wrong on the battlefield.

At this moment, the order caused more than a dozen heads to fall to the ground, but Liszt did not even blink his eyes, but just cast his eyes on the faces of the remaining robbers.

The only people who escaped because they didn't scream were the old man and Orion who had spoken earlier, and the tiger-headed boy was also on the ground, and I don't know if the yellow-faced woman in his family would be sad for him when she found out.

Orion was also frightened, and there was still a blood mark on his neck, and of course he didn't dare to speak loudly.

As for the old man, since he can not die if he cooperates, he is not ready to attract any robbers.

Seeing so many people dying, the old man didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Noble lord, the previous nobles were captured by the black haired people, and the two men were locked up on the southern hillside, where the black haired people and their gang stayed, and as for the woman among them, she has been caught in the central manor of the valley, which is the residence of the robber leader King Bald. ”

The old man explained the situation clearly in a few words, and Liszt also appreciated it very much, so he did not kill them as promised, but only knocked them unconscious, tied them up, gagged them, and threw them in place.

Liszt and the others then withdrew from the room and met with Eugen.

Hearing what Liszt said, Eugen was in trouble, but he didn't expect things to change like this.

The two sons of the Count of Sartre were about to rush to the southern entrance of the valley to get them out, but the Count's youngest daughter, Caterina, was in danger.

The manor in the middle of the valley is the last place Eugen wants to touch, where the structure is complex, the one-man high masonry wall encloses the entire manor, and the total area of the manor is two acres, and it is difficult to find people in such a labyrinthine manor.

Moreover, there are the largest number of robbers gathered there, and even if most of the robbers are attracted to the southwest main road, the rest will be enough to give them a headache.

If Katarina is not rescued in time, and the robbers on the main road in the southwest find that the situation is not right and turn back, then the danger will be great, and maybe all the hundreds of them will have to fold here.

Even Eugen was in a difficult position, and he didn't know how to choose, but it was obvious that it was easiest to give up Caterina, and they could leave directly with the Count's two sons.

However, this can also be said to be the most advisable way, first of all, Eugen's conscience will not be able to pass, it will become his lifelong regret, in addition, if Count Sartre knows about Eugen's choice, it is likely to lead to the breakdown of the alliance between the two sides, resulting in irreparable consequences.

After weighing the two, Eugen finally decided to split his forces, one to rescue Caterina and the other to the south of the valley, save the Count's sons and flee.

The 100 men who went directly to the southern opening were led by Liszt, and Eugen himself led the remaining 100 soldiers to the central estate to rescue Caterina.

Liszt was shocked by Eugen's decision, and he begged him to lead the team to the manor and let Eugen leave first, but Eugen rejected Liszt with a word, saying:

"I'm the commander of the Disaster Relief Army."

At this point, Liszt finally completely changed his view of Eugen, and the original disbelief and contempt in his heart were all gone, and they were replaced by a kind of heartfelt respect.

"Eugen! Count Eugen! I, Liszt, hereby swear, as long as you rescue my young lady, from now on, no matter what, you will always be my Liszt's commander! Liszt said with tears in his eyes that he was loyal to Count Sartre, but that did not prevent him from swearing an oath to Eugen.

Eugen smiled and patted Liszt's arm, did not speak, but left in silence with a hundred cavalry troops.

The result of their deliberation was that Liszt would wait for a while before attacking, so that he might still be able to support Eugen and prevent the purpose of the team's escape from the southern pass from being exposed prematurely.
