In the night, the sixty-three people of the Tachibana Thorn Scout Cavalry squad galloped in the path, all the black horses and black leather armor, far away from the invisible, can only hear the sound of horses' hooves rumbling, in the forest next to the road, a pair of green beast eyes appeared in the dark, the beast was attracted by the sound, found that the prey was not easy to deal with, and then disappeared.

They set off in the evening, bypassing the border defense of Kate's kingdom and running for nearly six hours before reaching the vicinity of Greystone Village.

Different from the dark and low sky on the northern border of the Tachibana Thorn, the moon is shining here in Gray Stone, and the people who can become scouts have quite good vision, and Ribenjar looked at the village in front of him from a distance, and couldn't help frowning: "All the main roads have been put on the horse rejection, tsk, the layout is perfect, it seems that the nobles here should have learned some knowledge of war." ”

"Captain, what now?" A subordinate asked.

"Since the other party knows how to deal with our cavalry, then, where other war horses can go, there must be a trap for horses." Ribengel gently stroked the sideburns of the mount and said slowly, "Hehe, a new nobleman who has studied war? Interesting, it seems that we can't ask for the ransom? ”

"Captain, did you come for nothing?" The vice-captain felt quite dissatisfied. Thousands of miles rushed in, and they didn't grab a single copper coin, so they went back like this, and if they let the people of the other squadrons know about this, I don't know how they will laugh at them.

Ribengel smiled: "Who said to go back empty-handed?" I mean, once we catch this nobleman, we can only kill him. After all, I don't want to be remembered by a nobleman who is good at warfare, and I am a nobleman myself, and I know very well that we people are very fond of remembering hatred. ”

The vice-captain was not interested in the aristocratic 'concept' of Ribengel, he only cared about how many valuable things they could grab in a while, and whether there were any women in this village who could see the past: "Captain, since you want to kill the nobles, then his female dependents ...... After you have enjoyed it, can you reward us, I heard that the noble women of the Kate Kingdom are white and tender......"

Haha Ribengel laughed, the sound of the night can usually be heard far away, but there is still a considerable distance between their location and the village, and the voice cannot be heard there: "No problem, now everyone dismounts, bring their own short knives, and act in hiding, I don't need to say anything else." ”

"Yes!"

The Tachibana Thorn Cavalry almost simultaneously turned over and dismounted, stroking the horses beside them, they had a very close relationship with their mounts, and the horses could even understand some of the basic instructions given by their masters, such as waiting in place.

Leaving three people on guard, sixty people walked to the first long rejection horse at the entrance of the village, several cavalry stepped forward to lift the rejection horse, moved to the side, Ribengel walked to the place around the horse, picked up a wooden stick, poked hard, while walking forward, not a few steps, the stick in his hand suddenly fell into the turf, he pressed hard, a large piece of turf was turned over, and there was a big black pit below.

"Sure enough, there is a trap. Don't walk on the grass. ”

Rigel sneered and threw away the stick in his hand. By this time, his subordinates had quietly lifted the first high rejection horse. Sixty people walked along the path. It's easy to set traps on the grass, but it's hard to set traps on a road where people are trampled on only mud because it's easy to spot.

The second rejection was moved away, and the third ...... The fourth course. There is not much distance left from the village, and there are still the last two rejection horses left.

All of them drew their short knives, and their eyes were full of bloodthirsty red light. Five people stepped forward and carried the end of the rejection horse, and when they arrived here, the road was much wider, and the rejection horse was much longer than the one in front, and of course, it was also much heavier.

There are many people who can do things, and they finally lifted the rejection horse that was deeply rooted in the earth, but they didn't have time to be happy, but at this time there was a sudden change.

Dangdang, dangdang! The loud bell appeared out of nowhere, and in the silence of the night, it was extremely noisy. Ribengel's eyes were sharp, and he saw that the place where the horse rejection nail had been lifted was actually connected to a hemp rope, and the rope was buried in the shallow soil, and it was connected to a large tree not far away. The bell rang out from the canopy of the tree.

The houses in the village lit up one by one. ,

"Damn, there's a warning agency." Ribengel yelled: "No matter, rush up, and only when you encounter resistance will you be killed." ”

The last one of the horses was taller than all the ones in front, and more than a dozen people did not move away when they went up. Ribengel yelled: "You idiots, use some brains, climb over for me!" ”

After all, a tool specially used to deal with war horses has no effect on people. The cavalry in front bit the short knife with his mouth, flipped over the horse with his hands and feet, and then jumped to the ground...... Three screams rang out from the front and back, and the first three cavalrymen to jump down all had an iron-toothed trap on their feet.

And one of the traps is also connected to a hemp rope...... A bell rang again in a nearby tree.

At this time, the lights in the village are even brighter. More than a dozen cavalrymen grabbed the rejecting horses, and the tragic situation of the three people in front frightened them, and for a while, neither did they move forward nor did they retreat.

"Damn, there's still one!" Ribenger's face turned green with anger, and he roared loudly at the top of his throat: "Don't be afraid, this is the road they usually have to enter and exit, and they won't bury too many traps, rush in, kill the whole village, and avenge the injured brothers." ”

The Tachibana Thorn cavalry gritted their teeth, turned over the horses, and rushed into the village, and sure enough, as Ribengel said, there did not seem to be many traps left, and during this period, only two of them fell into the trap.

It was only because of such a delay that more than a dozen people in the village rushed out. Ribengel, who had just turned over the rejection of the horses, saw their outfits, and his face immediately distorted, and he shouted in Tachibana Thorn: "They are mercenaries...... The first and second squads, pestering them, and the third and fourth squads went around the village, and when they saw the killing, they didn't let one go. ”

That's when something even stranger happened. The mercenaries who rushed out of the village did not come forward again, they just stood in front of the village with leather shields, ignoring the enemies who ran to the left and right of the village. Looking at this appearance, there is actually a bit of an army's formation, Libenjer is strange, the other party's formation is clearly to hold on, are they waiting for some reinforcements?

At this time, the third and fourth squads happened to go around to both sides of the village, and were about to enter the village...... They touched the trap again, and the third squad on the left, five of them fell into a large pit, and their lives and deaths were unknown; The fourth squad on the right wing encountered a logging trap, four collision logs rushed down from a high place in a single row, and the first six people, who didn't even have a place to hide, were directly swept away, their chests collapsed, and they couldn't survive.

"Damn, it's a trap again!"

Ribengel looked at the situation ahead, his heart was cold, he had not yet engaged the enemy, and now he had reduced his strength by fourteen people, and looking at the opponent's persistent appearance, it was clear that he was full of confidence, which showed that the other party had already prepared.

"Evacuate, retreat!" Ribengel made a quick decision, took the lead and ran back, and he didn't plan to ignore the injured subordinates.

The defeat was like a mountain. The mercenaries of the village did not pursue, and let the Tachibana Thorn cavalry run back, and when a group of people turned over the rejected horses, the mercenaries with shields in the front row suddenly crouched, revealing the five archers behind them.

"What a target." An archer mercenary looked at the Tachibana Thorn Cavalry who was climbing and rejecting the horse, and became excited.

The five people released their arrows, and the five Tachibana Thorn Cavalry fell off the rejection horse in response, and the Tachibana Thorn Cavalry, who had not yet climbed up the rejection horse, immediately panicked, scattered, and wanted to bypass both sides of the rejection horse. At this time, Ribenjel had just turned over the rejection horse, and when he looked back, his face was green: "Don't go to the grass......

As soon as he finished speaking, seven more fell into the pit.

"These idiots." Ribengel didn't plan to pay attention to these subordinates anymore, and if he was caught as a nobleman, the consequences could be very serious.

Looking at the black pit, the scattered Tachibana Thorn cavalry circled back, the fear of death with the fast-flowing blood has been hitting their brains, in order to survive, several backward cavalry, actually ripped off the robe that was crawling in front of them, and then quickly climbed up themselves.

Five archers had their arrows in their hands, their bowstrings trembled, and five more horsemen were about to fall from their horses.

The cavalryman, who had not yet climbed up to the rejection of the horse, immediately lay down when he saw this, threw away the short knife, held his head in both hands, and shouted tremblingly: "We surrender, surrender!" Don't kill us, please. ”

Running at the front, Ribenjar heard the voice of his subordinates crying and surrendering, and he looked back again, and the people who had climbed past the rejected horses and escaped were at most in their early twenties.

"It's over......" Bengel felt sad in his heart, and after he returned, he might not be able to keep his position as the heir to the title.

If I have the opportunity in the future, I must become a great nobleman in charge of the army, bring the army over, and exterminate this village, killing all the men, and serving the women as military prostitutes until I die, and I will throw all their children into the pot and cook them, and then force them to eat them one bite at a time. Ribenjar fled with his feet wide as he gritted his teeth and cursed viciously.

As he was about to run out of the village crossing, the panting Ribenjel suddenly slowed down. Not far from his eyes, there stood a beautiful girl in a gorgeous pink dress, with long black hair draped down, and the bangs on her forehead looked a little messy, obviously just getting up from bed.

Behind the girl, stood six people dressed as mercenaries.

The girl was so beautiful that he did not dare to stop admiring it, and he raised his short knife and shouted, "Kill them, and rush out of the city." ”

The next moment, he saw the girl raise her hand, and Ribengel felt a huge momentum hit his chest, and then, the sky swirled, and the entire world quickly darkened.

The six mercenaries quickly rushed forward and cut down the group of deserters who had lost their morale and fighting spirit as easily as if they were cutting wheat.
