Encounter with mountain bandits?

I didn't sleep all night, and the next day's trip was still the same boring, but the atmosphere was getting more and more tense, and there was a feeling of being out of breath, except for stopping halfway to eat and replenish water, we were not even allowed to open the curtain on the car.

In the dark, if we could not hear the sound of the horses moving forward, and the light seeping through the gaps, we would not even feel the horses moving, and we would not know where we were.

On the fourth day, the convoy had an accident, first a horse was injured and collapsed on the road, and then a horseman who had gone to the woods disappeared for no reason, and the front of the road was blocked by a fallen tree for no reason, and the convoy had to stop for a while to repair.

At night, we were awakened by the sound of noisy footsteps, and through the tarpaulin, I heard their conversation.

"What's going on?"

Misty Suo.....

"Captain, they're coming!" a soldier's voice said

"How many?"

"The size of a squad!"

"Inform all cavalry to prepare for battle!"

"Yes!" the sound of running away footsteps sounded.

"The rest of the people will leave a part to protect the convoy, and the rest will serve as the second echelon to prevent the cavalry from slipping through the net!"

"Yes!" all the soldiers agreed in unison, and then dispersed to their posts.

"Well, can you ask what's going on?" was the voice of another car.

The captain said softly, "It's just a matter of encountering the bandits, you can stay in the car, and you are not allowed to get out of the car without being ordered!"

After speaking, he didn't care about the reaction of the people in the car, turned around and left in a hurry.

What kind of bandits are the ones who can make these elite soldiers of the empire so nervous? In my opinion, it is not just a matter as simple as mountain bandits.

Almost in the blink of an eye, no one reacted, well! except for the soldiers, they should have encountered these things.

A sharp and piercing sound pierced the silent night sky, that kind of sound will be unforgettable for life as long as you hear it once, everyone is desperately covering their ears, but the sound can still get into your head, if it wasn't for the captain's order at the beginning, the boys and girls staying in the car would definitely shout, it's too painful, that feeling.

After the cacophony, all the cavalry were heard to charge, and although it was not the earth-shattering feeling of the heavy cavalry, it still gave people a feeling of excitement.

"Moo...!"

"Cow?" Just when I was still surprised how there were cows here, I felt like the whole car was flying, and then I was thrown out of the car.

"Not good!" I looked around at the thought of this, grabbed a branch growing horizontally, and turned around and pulled out the girl closest to me in the car, so that I had time to observe everything around me.

"!" "Now I have a hundred grass and mud horses passing by in my heart, what is the situation, doesn't it mean that I just encountered mountain bandits?"

My whole body hung on the edge of the cliff, and I was holding a frightened cumbersome in one hand, if it weren't for the protruding branch, I might have fallen off the cliff with the carriage, and when I came back to my senses, and looked behind me, the carriage was long gone.

"Quick... Come... "I squeezed a little strength from between my teeth and cried for help. But he was cursing in his heart, "The old lady can't hold it anymore!!"

"There's someone down there!"

Finally someone spotted us, "Hey, thank goodness!"

"Go down and save someone!"

A few minutes later, my stunned companion and I were pulled up, lay down on the ground, and posed with a "big" word, feeling the sense of security that came from the earth.

"Hah! It's alive again! Whew...", panting loudly and sighing.

"Well done, miss!" said a soldier-like man, standing in front of me, crouching down and patting me on the shoulder.

I rolled over and stood up, and looked around, it turned out that where we were, there was a climbing road, the whole road was on the edge of the cliff, and on the other side was a dense forest, and there was a huge bull lying in the place of the carriage, and it seemed that it was this guy who had just knocked the carriage away.

After a cursory look, I knew nine times out of ten.

If this ox is also an enemy, then the enemy hanging behind us is entirely for the purpose of transferring the cavalry out and diverting the tiger from the mountain. Although the cavalry is not very powerful in the woodland, the power of the light cavalry should not be underestimated.

Once the giant bull monster crosses the cavalry, the infantry behind him poses no threat to him, and the children of the carriage become a burden to the guards.

From the beginning, it was premeditated, the horseman disappeared, and the mountain bandits in the mouths of the guards were with us, and they were waiting for the right time and place.

"I'm Bart, the captain of this escort, and your behavior is very commendable!" a young man in light armor walked up behind me.

"No... Where... Where! I just instinctively reacted, huh... Huh!" I smirked as I touched the back of my head.

The captain didn't ask any further questions, and after placing me and the girl in another carriage, the convoy set off again.

Two days later, when I joined up with another convoy, nothing happened along the way, but when we did, all the wagons on that convoy were covered with knife marks, and the soldiers' armor was covered with blood, which made me wonder if they had experienced the same thing as us.
