Text Chapter 35 Defeated overnight and walked through Shuangfeng Village, the road met the old bandits and won the victory
Witt, Rum and the other four took advantage of the night to sneak up to the periphery of the front village of the peak. I saw that the original stake defensive wall, which was still quite strong, had already been burned down and collapsed after the battle of the bandits last night, leaving only the black wood that still smelled of scorched smoke and was piled up on both sides of the walled gate. Although Witt lamented that everything was changeable, he did not forget to get down to business.
The four of them lay on their stomachs in the grass not far from the coke pile to spy on the situation inside the gate. I saw a jumping fire on the side of the gate, and there were five people sitting around, one of whom was wearing a brown fur hat on his head, and his outfit was different from the others around him, so he must be their leader.
Witt calculated in his heart, counting the three robbers who had been dealt with on the slope, if the robbers by the fire hadn't missed it, this gang of robbers should be eight people. The number of opponents is about the same as the number of people on your side, and it should not be difficult to kill them if you count the long-range advantage of the bow and arrow in your hand plus the sneak attack. Witt had a wishful thinking in his heart, turned to the three rum brothers and said, "I have a plan, I don't know if it works?" ”
Rum had no calculations in his heart, and when he heard that Witt had a plan, he immediately rejoiced: "Brother Witt, please speak!" Safin and Star also nodded their heads and gestured to Witt and Pantuo.
Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Witt immediately said: "I mean let the three of you brothers hide in the dark places of the ruins on both sides of the cottage gate, and I will use the bow and arrow in my hand to attack the distance to shoot the robbers here and lure them out of the gate." Once the other party is out of the walled gate, the three of you brothers will launch a sneak attack from behind the robbers, and we will be able to catch this group of robbers by surprise. ”
"Good! Brother Witt, I'm really impressed with you. Rum listened to the praise endlessly, and the other two also agreed when they saw that the eldest brother valued Witt so much.
The plan was settled, and the four of them returned to their respective positions. The three brothers crept to the ruins on both sides of the gate in the dark, Rum stood alone on the left side of the gate, the two brothers Safinstar stood on the right side of the gate, and Witt stayed where he was, watching the situation of the three of them.
When the three brothers had taken their places, Witt lifted the oak bow that he had carried behind him, skillfully drew the arrow from the quiver tied to his back, and bent the bow with his arrow, aiming it at the robber who was facing away from him by the fire. This type of arrow is a barbed arrow, which can inflict immeasurable damage on the enemy, whether pierced or pulled upside down. What's more, this arrow is fast, quiet, and not easy to detect, and was given to Witt by chance by a nobleman in the fortress of Fesdena in order to win over Cass.
The rapidly rotating barbed arrow passed through the gate of the wall, slashed through a slightly curved arc in the air, directly pierced through the two layers of animal skin armor in front and back of the robber, pierced through the chamber, and immediately fell to the ground, frightening the robbers sitting around him to lean back and fall to the ground.
There was a sudden chaos in the cottage, and Witt took advantage of the chaos to shoot an arrow at the robber in the walled gate, which happened to hit a robber's face, and he shot his head on the spot, and the robber fell to the ground and died. This arrow could reveal the location of Witt, and the robbers were furious, angry to the extreme, and raised their one-handed swords and rushed towards the gate of the village.
When Witty looked at it, he was immediately shocked, and shouted to the three brothers on both sides of the walled gate: "Hurry up!" Come on! The three brothers were stunned for a moment, and then they didn't care so much, and immediately pulled out their legs and ran in the direction of Witt. When the robbers behind him found out that Witt still had his companions, they immediately shouted angrily: "Kill them!" Kill them! ”
Witt underestimated the number of robbers, and just glanced at the heads of people surging inside the gate, Witt estimated that there were at least a dozen or so people on the other side. In case the three of Rum really get involved with each other, it is estimated that there is no place to die on their side. Thirty-six plans are the upper ones. Witt bounced off the grass with his hands on the ground, and fired another arrow at the robber behind the three brothers, and immediately knocked one down. Then the four of them hurriedly fled from the peak, hid in the dense forest not far below the peak, and disappeared into the darkness.
By the time the four of them took advantage of the night to throw the gang of robbers behind them, they had already run four or five kilometers away, so tired that everyone gasped, and they didn't want to move with their hands on the surrounding trees, and they didn't say anything for a long time.
When everyone's complexion was a little better, Star scolded: "These dogs, raised by their mothers, there are so many people, they run fast at a loss, otherwise none of us will want to live!" As soon as the words came out, the other three people were all apprehensive and speechless.
The four of them were squatting against the trees and were about to rest, when suddenly there was a rustling sound in several bushes not far from the woods, which frightened Witt and his party into thinking that the robbers had chased after them and surrounded them, so they immediately jumped up, pulled out their weapons, leaned on each other's backs, and prepared to fight the robbers to the death.
I saw that seven strong men suddenly jumped out of the bushes and surrounded the four of Wert. Witt looked at it, and it turned out that it was not a gang of robbers, but ordinary bandits, and several of them Witt still felt familiar, as if they had seen it somewhere. In order to avoid fighting as much as possible, Witt tentatively asked, "Brothers, have we met somewhere, and since we know each other, why do we bother?" Hurt the peace. ”
The other party did not answer, but Safin saw that the other party ignored him, and immediately lost his temper and scolded: "Don't follow these dogs, mother's nonsense, they are all shirtless bandits, we may not be able to beat them!" After speaking, he lifted the one-handed sword in his hand and wanted to come forward to fight.
Witt had already noticed that the other party was just bandits with low defense and attack power, most of them were shirtless, and most of the slaughtering knives in their hands were in their hands. It's just that Witt didn't want the three brothers to be like Defeng, because of a moment of negligence and lost their lives, and immediately stopped Safin.
At this time, a young man of fourteen or fifteen years old walked out of the darkness of the woods, with beautiful eyebrows but quite a bold temperament. I only heard the young man shout: "Who said that we are dogs, mother-raised, ah! The sound resounded through the dark forest, startling away the few small birds that roost around.
"Rolf!" Witt exclaimed. Witt felt a little familiar when he first heard the young man's voice, and when he saw the young man's face, he remembered the young bandit Fesdena he met in the jungle west of Fesdena more than three months ago, no wonder Witt always felt that there were several young people in front of him who seemed familiar. I haven't seen him for a few months, and the temperament of Rolf's heroes has increased unabated, and his speech is still so domineering and arrogant.
Rolf had already heard Witt's voice in the dark forest, and immediately replied: "Long time no see! Witt Brothers! The scene eased for a while, everyone looked at me, I looked at you, confused.
Witt recounted to the three rum brothers what he had known to Rolf three months earlier, and Rolf motioned for his men to put away their weapons, and the two sides ended their hostilities.
"Brother Witt! Since it was a misunderstanding, then we don't need to say more. Why are you here? Rolf looked at Witt curiously, in fact, he had other plans in his heart, he was here for the treasure of Twin Peaks, and he didn't know what Witt's intentions were.
Witt didn't hide it, and retold what had just happened in Twin Peaks to Rolf. Rolf frowned after hearing this, pondered for a moment and said, "Don't cheat, don't deceive." I waited for this time to come, and the goal was to Shuangfeng Village. Witt was startled, and Rum and the others looked at each other and looked at Rolf, waiting for further clarification.
Rolf continued: "After the Twin Peaks were wiped out by Fesdena's army last night, bandits from all walks of life rushed to inform each other early this morning, and they were all ready to move. Because Shuangfeng Village is the most powerful and richest bandit in this area, it has accumulated a lot of wealth over the years, and basically all bandits covet its wealth. Now that Shuangfeng Village has fallen, bandits from all walks of life are fighting for their wealth, and it is normal for Shuangfeng Village to be occupied by a few robbers, and I am afraid that other bandits will not dare to act rashly in a short time. ”
Witt frowned when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Brother Rolf, in that case, in other words, as long as we catch the robbers, the treasure will be ours?" ”
Rolf's eyes widened and he stared at Witt for a moment, then replied, "Supposedly so, do you want to ......" Rolf didn't make it clear, but was surprised that Witt was so bold that he wanted to take the treasure to himself.
"That's right! If you're willing to help me, brother, I have a plan, I wonder if it's feasible? Witt deliberately hung Rolf's appetite.
"Let's hear it!" Rolf was thrilled at the thought of the treasure, and he forgot about the potential danger ahead.
"Let's get the snake out ......of the hole," Witt shared his strategy, and the three Rum brothers raised their hands in agreement. Rolf was even more and more apologetic when he heard this, and his men were almost completely obedient to Rolf, and there was no opposition at the moment, and they began to prepare for the next morning. Everything is ready, the night is fine, and the night is together.
Before dawn the next day, Witt still took the three Rum brothers straight to Shuangfeng Village, and when they arrived at the gate of the cottage unimpeded, it was already early and dawn. Witt looked inside the cottage for a while, but when there was no movement, he asked the three Rum brothers to wait here first, and he went up to check alone.
Witt tiptoed to the door of the cottage and looked around the village, but there was still no one in sight. Witt was reluctant to use the dilapidated house as a cover and went deeper into the cottage. Suddenly hearing a snoring sound, Witt went for a sound, and found two robbers patrolling near the ropeway leading to the main village, while the other robbers were resting on the grass bunk. Witt had an idea, raised his oak bow and arrow, and shot at one of the patrolling robbers, right in the abdomen, and the robber immediately fell to the ground and groaned, alarming the other patrolling robber, and immediately waking his companion with a loud voice.
It's too late, it's too soon. Witt turned over and ran towards the gate of the village, and the robber behind him was furious, and refused to give up. Last night, he used a trick to kill many of his comrades, and he dared to make trouble this morning, which is unbearable, and he must be killed without mercy.
The three rum brothers saw Witt rushing from the cottage, and when they looked closely, they saw that there were more than a dozen robbers behind them, but they were thrown farther and farther away by Witt. When Witt ran to the position where the three rums were lying on their stomachs, the three had already pulled out their legs and ran in the direction of the agreed place.
The robber saw that all the troubles of last night were here, and he was still wearing the clothes and armor of his companions, and he was even more furious, and roared at Witt and his party while running, and the three of Rum were almost caught up by the robbers, but fortunately Witt was clever and pretended to pose for archery, which could not only scare the robbers to delay time for Rum and others, but also further provoke them to achieve the effect of luring.
Soon, two groups of men chasing one after the other on the horizon crossed the plain and entered the forest, and the robbers continued to chase after them. But they chased after them, and Witt's group suddenly disappeared into the forest, nowhere to be found. The leader of the bandits immediately ordered the minions to scatter and search, but before they had gone far, one of the robbers suddenly fell into a deep pit with a swipe, and let out a heart-rending scream, and the sound stopped abruptly in an instant. When the robbers looked forward, they were suddenly terrified, and saw that the robbers in the pit had been pierced by seven or eight branches with sharp tips. On the door, on the throat, on the chest, and on the thighs, the timid robbers immediately fled in fright into the forest. The leader of the robbers shouted and stopped, but did not react, and watched as he disappeared into the horizon, following in the footsteps of his dead companions.
The other robbers around him did not dare to move because they had learned from the past, but listened to the instructions of the leader. The leader of the bandits, thinking back to the strange atmosphere of the forest he had been in since the morning, and his men who were already lying in the pit, knew that the enemy had deliberately set a trap for himself to drill into. But he didn't dare to retreat in a hurry, he believed that there were definitely more traps than these, otherwise they would definitely not be able to win against him.
The forest fell silent, and the bandit leader stood in place for a long time and observed no movement, in order not to further increase the casualties, his own job in the future will depend on this group of minions! The leader of the robbers motioned for all the robbers to return the way they came, and to exit the forest.
The robbers slowly retreated step by step, and when they reached the giant tree more than 20 meters high, Rolf immediately lifted a single knife to cut off the thick rope coiled by a dozen vines, and the giant tree that had already hung on the parallel surface of the top of the giant tree swept towards the robbers in an arc in the air with the two thick ropes connected between the giant tree and the giant tree. In the blink of an eye, the four robbers who were walking in the forefront were immediately hit by a giant tree and flew seven or eight meters away, and the miserable robber fell directly into the trap dug by Witt and his party, and he was dead. The slightly better ones also lay on the ground spitting blood, and they were in agony.
The robbers were in immediate disarray, and Witt took the opportunity to poke out of the bushes, set up an arrow and bend his bow, aimed at the bandit leader not far away, and snatched the bow with barbed arrows. The leader of the robbers was frightened by this huge tree, but he was pierced by a sharp arrow behind him, and his eyes suddenly widened, his pupils gradually dilated, and he fell to the ground, and blood flowed from his throat.
Seeing that the leader was dead, the four remaining robbers were even more panicked and unable to control their movements, and were about to flee into the forest, but they were intercepted on the spot by the oncoming Rolf and Witt. Seeing that there were many people in many places and that he had no fighting spirit, the robbers immediately dropped their one-handed swords and squatted on the ground and surrendered.
Rolf and his gang immediately stepped forward to snatch the weapons they had left behind, and took the four robber captives under control. Except for the brothers who controlled the captives, everyone else cleaned the battlefield they had just swept away, especially the traps, so as not to injure their own people.
During the battle, some weapons and armor were captured in the forest, and although the armor was somewhat damaged, it was quite attractive to Rolf and his gang. Witt also saw their needs, and immediately said: "Rolf, let your brothers put on these weapons and armor first, and they will be of great use in the future." Brother Rum, you should have no opinion! Witt turned around and asked Rum again, and the three of them asked. The three of them had already changed into robber animal skin armor, and they were embarrassed to fight again, and Witt also gave enough face, so naturally there was no reason to object, so they nodded in agreement.
When Rolf saw that Witt was so bold, he was very grateful in his heart, and replied: "Brother Witt is really bold, then I thank you here, but the robber leader's armor is stronger, and he has a fur cap, and the armor of the minions must be much better." Since you shot the leader with your own hands, you should have given it to you. ”
Witt took over and saw that it was really much stronger, although it was not as good as light leather armor, but it was not bad, and immediately thanked Rolf, and said to Rum: "I already have armor myself, and it is superfluous to keep it, you need it more than me, take it!" Rum didn't say much, but he should have made a note of Witt's goodness.
After everyone was put on new armor, Witt persuaded Rolf and Rum to dismiss the captives, not only to save them the trouble of carrying them, but also to increase their prestige in the area, and more importantly, to warn the surrounding bandits not to try to attack the treasure of Twin Peaks again.
After freeing the captives, Witt and Rolf went to Twin Peaks to find the mouth-watering treasure that had buried many of the bandits' lives.
In the past, robbers were like beasts, but now bandits avoid them. Ask you what is going on and who is in the team?
