The more urgent it is at such an urgent moment, the more we can see the fighting quality of an army.

Corleone shouted an enemy attack and rushed into the group, and the whole team worked like a sophisticated machine, everyone finding their position accurately, without the slightest hint of panic.

Corleone stood in the center of the group shouting and giving orders, and soon the carts carrying supplies were overturned to the ground, connected in front and back, forming two solid battle formations.

On the left side of the battle formation is the dense bush, and on the right side is the low hill, so that the battle formation based on the terrain will make the defense line more solid.

Several carts with wine barrels were pushed to the high point of the low hill, which also formed a shorter line of defense, but the steward of West did not understand Eugen's intentions when he saw this arrangement.

Eugen stood above on the wheel of the cart, looking at the direction of the smoke and dust from a distance, the distance between the two sides was rapidly closing, and it could be seen that the other side was all composed of cavalry.

At this distance, Eugen could see that the opponent had drawn his weapon, and it was obvious that the comer was not good, and they were thinking that they would reap some results in the first wave of killings.

But looking at it, Eugen's brows furrowed: "Strange, something is wrong." ”

Standing on the cart, Eugen muttered.

Steward West stood below and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Any questions? ”

"Well, there are a few people coming from the other side, and looking at the scale of this smoke and dust, the number of this cavalry team should only be around fifty." Eugen let out a sneer: "Hehe, people want to eat us with such a small number, this appetite is too big." ”

"Fifty?" Steward West was also very puzzled when he heard this, and after thinking about it, he said tentatively: "Could it be that the other party doesn't know our strength, so he sent a man who can only deal with a normal escort team." ”

Steward Vester is right, the team escorting Eugen is really abnormal, under normal circumstances, the escort team will not exceed ten people, and many times even two or three people are enough.

Eugen, on the other hand, has a full 150 people, and they are all well-trained elite soldiers, which is really an exaggeration.

"No, it won't." Hearing West's words, Eugen shook his head and said, "The other party is coming from the south, that is, the direction of San Marino City. We've caused quite a bit of a stir in San Marino before, and they can't be unaware of it. ”

Speaking of this, Eugen's face sank, and he suddenly had a bad premonition, if these fifty people were just the forces sent by the other party to test them, then how many of their real troops would be?

At this moment, the steward of West inadvertently glanced back, and then suddenly shouted, "Oh no, Eugen, look behind you!" ”

When he was flustered, the steward of West was also a little out of shape.

Eugen hurriedly looked back, and his face instantly became extremely ugly.

On the plain not far to the north, there was a slightly raised hill, and on the slope of the hill in the middle of nowhere, a large dense mass of horse bandits jumped over the hillside and rushed towards them.

The dark war horses and the dazzling steel knives converged into a surging mudslide, rushing down with an earth-shattering sound.

That terrifying majesty is enough to make people's hearts chill.

Before, their vision was blocked by the hill, and they didn't notice the team behind them, but at this moment, when the other party rushed down the hill, the distance between them and them was less than a kilometer!

At a distance of one kilometer, the war horse is in a flash, and now it is too late to make any preparations even temporarily, so you can only fight the other party hard.

Eugen couldn't judge the number of the other party, but he felt that there were countless horse bandits who had crossed the hill one after another, and behind that hillside, I didn't know how many horse bandits had not crossed over.

"Damn, how is this possible, how dare they openly mobilize so many men and horses to besiege us!" Eugen said anxiously and angrily, he realized that he had made a big mistake, that is, he had miscalculated the number of people that might be on the other side.

In his opinion, this is the hinterland of Italy after all, and the forces are so intricate that no one dares to break the balance without permission. Besides, there is also an escort team from the royal family and the prince himself by his side, so no one should dare to make a big splash against him.

Even if they really sent troops, the number of them could not exceed two hundred, so with their strength, they would still be able to fight against them.

But now, just looking at the horse bandits that have rushed out, there are more than four hundred, and people are constantly appearing from behind the hillside.

"There are not so many horse bandits in the Italian region at all, and looking at their appearance, it seems that they are a group of Blackbeard bandits from the northern Saxon region!" The steward of West recognized the identity of the horse bandits, and immediately told Eugen in a low voice.

"Saxony again! They really hate me, huh! First the assassination at this moment, and then the horse bandits, the Vetina family, I am inseparable from you! ”

Eugen roared angrily, he had completely hated the Vetina family in his heart, and it seemed that since he came to the south, this family in the north had been constantly fighting against him, and the feud between the two sides was constantly expanding day by day.

The timing of the appearance of the two horse bandits in front and back was very good, and it seemed that they would rush to Eugen's line almost at the same time, Eugen weighed it for a while, and then said: "Come here and bring down those wine barrels for me!" ”

Immediately two squads of soldiers ran down the low hill, and according to Eugen's orders, they walked to several carts with wine barrels, and moved the wine barrels down one by one.

Steward Vester was very puzzled, he didn't understand what Eugen wanted to do, did he plan to sit down with the other party to talk and have a drink before the battle?

But looking at the other party's appearance, I'm afraid I don't want to talk to him at all.

In the end, Eugen answered the question of the steward of Vester with practical actions, Eugen took out a short-handled knife and pried the lid of the wine barrel open, only to see that it was not wine at all, but a barrel of black powder mixed with oil.

It turned out that Eugen sent people around the city of San Marino to buy wine at all, but these flammable and explosive gunpowders.

The city of San Marino is very bustling, with a wide variety of heavy goods, and it is not uncommon to find black powder.

Steward Vester looked a little dazed, he looked up at the big cars, sure enough, all the wine barrels on them were full of black powder, where are these wine carts, they are simply moving bombs.

One or two carts could hold six barrels, a full thirty powder kegs, each of which was half a meter thick and a meter high. It's like a large artillery battle, if it all explodes, the power is unimaginable.
