Now it was very close to the date of the transaction, so Alan and his party sped up and bypassed the crowded towns all the way, but fortunately, due to the influence of the Bols horse bandits, the closer they got to the Great Dragon Rift, the fewer residents there were, and finally walked two hundred miles, Alan and the others were surprised to find that the villages and towns along the way were deserted, and there was hardly any human habitation. www.biquge.infoFortunately, because the military operation against the horse bandits has not been interrupted, the road is still there, so I don't worry about losing my way.

According to the map markings, when there was still a day to go from the target location, Alan and the others chose a deserted village and stopped. This is already an area frequented by horse bandits, so you have to be very careful when camping, Alan himself didn't even sleep all night, standing guard with the mercenaries, and constantly using his concentrating magic to listen to the movements around him, just worried about the raid of the horse bandits, if the food in their hands was robbed, the follow-up plan could not be carried out at all.

Fortunately, there was nothing wrong overnight, and the next day, Alan sent two groups of mercenaries to find the target valley with a copy of the map. When they arrived at the gangnet, the mercenaries who had gone out to explore the road returned and brought back news of the valley.

Listening to the mercenaries report the results of the investigation, Alan understood why the horse bandits chose this valley as the trading location, this is a valley facing the Great Dragon Rift, there are many commanding heights nearby, trading here, if you find that you have been betrayed, you can easily retreat.

Alan, Bloom, and Shelly, plus a few experienced mercenaries who study the map for the night and have a contingency plan, are there to save people and kill people, but they are not here to be killed, so they must be prepared for the killer after the trade.

Everything was well arranged, and the next day the troops were divided into two routes, and Allen led more than 100 men and horses to escort 100,000 pounds of grain wagons to the east.

Bloom, on the other hand, led most of the people and remained in the village, hiding the grain in a few abandoned old houses, taking concealment measures, leaving some mercenaries to guard the grain, and then quietly groping in the direction of the valley and lurking in the dense forest near the entrance of the valley, and at the same time sending mercenaries to reconnoiter the nearby situation, especially the movements of the horse bandits.

"Remember, no matter what happens today, you must follow me closely, remember, don't be impulsive, everything is under my command. ”

Harvey, Stanny, and Miranda also followed Allen, so after leaving, Allen specifically advised. Of the three of them, Harvey is the strongest, and he has a lot of combat experience and the ability to protect himself, and Allen really needs to worry about Stanny and Miranda.

"Got it. ”

The three of them replied in unison.

On the same day, Alan led everyone into the valley, the valley was quiet, there was no sign of horse bandits, they chose to camp in the valley, and sent mercenaries to reconnoiter around, in case they were ambushed by horse bandits, but until the evening, there was no trace of horse bandits.

Could it be that the bandits have forgotten about it?

Along the way, everyone was worried about encountering horse bandits, but at this time the horse bandits did not come, and everyone became worried again, among which the most worried was Allen, the task of suppressing the bandits could not continue or secondary, the main thing was the worry about Elvis's personal safety, if the horse bandits did not act as agreed, the biggest possibility was not that the horse bandits forgot, but that their bargaining chip Elvis was no longer there.

This worry made Alan sleepless all night, he walked around the camp a few times, stood guard with the mercenary in charge of duty, chatted, and did not return to the camp tent until dawn to meditate until dawn, and when it was time for breakfast, finally a mercenary came in to pray, and the lookout post in the high place sent back a message that a large group of cavalry was entering the valley.

"It's supposed to be the Bols Bandits. Let's go, let's catch up. ”

Alan, who learned the news, finally let go of his hanging heart, he put down his breakfast and walked out of the tent.

Alan left most of the mercenaries behind, and only led a few men on horseback to meet him, but he only advanced a mile, and the sky above the exit of the valley ahead had already seen dust rising, and a group of cavalry rushed in, but just looking at the banner and clothing, this was actually a Sigg's cavalry.

Fortunately, before coming here, Allen had done enough research on the Bols Bandits, and he knew that the Bols Bandits often disguised themselves as Higg's army to carry out activities, and this kind of disguise was not only the use of the banner and clothing of the Higg Army, but even their every move was no different from the Hig cavalry, because many of them were Higg's regular army before they became horse bandits. Otherwise, Alan at this time is afraid that he will turn around and run.

"May I ask if the person in front of you is the person from the Grand Commander of Bols?"

Alan had already shouted loudly when they were far away. The Grand Commander is the name for Pols within the bandits, and in order to bring the two sides closer, Allen also adopted the same name.

"Who are you?"

When the cavalry saw Allen and them, they stopped at a distance, and the men on the horses drew their bows and swords one after another, as if they were facing a great enemy, but they did not attack, and the first one drove his horse a few steps forward, and did not answer Allen's question, but asked rhetorically.

"We have come from the north, and we have come here on the orders of the Count of Lorraine to fulfill an agreement. ”

Alan said calmly.

"We're the ones who came to fulfill the contract, what proof do you have?"

Perhaps it was because of the training of the horse bandits for many years, so that the cavalry leader on the opposite side acted very cautiously, and continued to ask.

"I have a letter here, which was left by the personnel of your ministry at the beginning, and can be used as evidence. ”

Alan showed the letter that Bloom had received from the Count of Lorraine, and handed it to Sergei, who flew out of the horse until he was within striking distance of the bandits, then turned around sharply and threw the letter to the leader of the other party. This trick is very beautiful, and for a Pegasus knight, riding a horse on land is even more trivial.

The bandit leader apparently did not pay attention to Sergei's horsemanship, he grabbed the flying envelope, took out the letter and looked at it twice, then turned back and shouted twice, and another knight came out of the horse team behind him, he drove his horse to the leader's side, took the letter from the leader's hand, looked at it twice, and then handed it back and said a few words to the horse bandit leader's novel.

"Did you bring the grain?"

The leader of the bandits seemed to have identified Eren through the letter, so he wasted no more time and put away the letter and asked them what they were most concerned about.

"I've brought it over. ”

"Where?"

"In the valley behind you, did the Earl's son bring it here?"

In Allen's line of sight, he didn't see Elvis's figure, so he asked with some trepidation.
