Chapter 233: The Templars on the Prairie (2)
"Arest, is that you stinky boy?" asked an old herdsman, a little lame, in disbelief, and the other villagers looked at the handsome knight-armored young man with surprised expressions. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Old Mark, Aunt Bavri......" Arest called out the names of the villagers, very excited.
"You stinky boy is amazing, look at the knight's armor you wear, it's amazing. Old Mark limped over to Arest, patted Arest's shoulder happily and said.
"Hey, hey. Arest smirked and chatted with his fellow villagers for a while, and everyone went back, but before leaving, he said that he would celebrate the next day.
"Renault, where's my father?" Areste realized a little strange, why didn't his father come out to see such a big commotion outside?
Hearing Arest's mention of his father, Renault clenched his fists and was silent, seeing such a scene, Arester had a bad premonition.
I opened the door and walked towards my father's room.
Arest's old father was lying on the bed with a pale face, looking at the frowning brow as if he was suffering a lot, Arest walked quickly to the bed, grabbed one of his father's hands with both hands, and called out to his father softly.
"Renault, what the hell is going on?" asked Arest, pulling Renault to the main hall, with a serious expression.
"It's an Imperial officer! This afternoon, my father and I were grazing cattle, and then I saw a vision on the grassland, and my father took me to the Imperial barracks to report the situation, but the officer not only didn't believe me and my father, but even beat me!" Renault said with resentment in his eyes.
"Lackeys of the Empire!" said Arest, furious, his eyes on fire.
At this moment, there was a scream in the village, and Arest stepped out of the house in three steps and two steps, and not far away the horse bandits rushed into the village with torches, and the horse bandits laughed wildly, and some horse bandits re-entered the house directly, and dragged the women out.
"Damn scum!" Arest rushed into the stable, pulled out his rifle and walked onto the avenue, staring at the violent horse bandit with murderous intent through the gap in his helmet, and with a wave of the whip, the horse galloped out in an instant.
The sudden arrival of the knight made the bandits panic a little, but they soon realized that the knight was only one person.
"Little ones, kill that eye-catching guy for Lao Tzu!" said the golden-toothed bandit loudly.
Getting closer and closer to the horse bandits, Arest held his breath, his right hand holding the spear tightened, and a faint golden light shrouded the tip of the spear.
Renault ran to the avenue and looked at the back of Arester rushing out with a worried face, there were dozens of horse bandits, but his brother was alone, his fists were clenched, praying that his brother could repel those horse bandits.
The bandits raised their scimitars and shouted loudly.
In the next second, there was a series of rapid sounds, fluttering and fluttering, the tip of the spear shining with golden light and the charging war horse knocked over several people at once, and Arest also showed his true appearance under the candlelight of the surrounding people, the knight's armor was draped with a wide robe, the golden sun was inlaid in the center of the robe, and the war horse was also draped with a golden sun's robe.
"It's the Templars!" one of the bandits shouted in fear, and then ran out of the village in fear.
The entire horse bandits were in chaos in an instant, and the invincible figure of the Templars had already been deeply imprinted in their minds when they surrounded and suppressed their scourge in the early years.
The leader of the horse bandits roared viciously: "Get back to Lao Tzu, what about the Templars?
Just then, Arest shouted, "Mars, kill that guy!"
A dirt bag protruded from the ground and moved rapidly, and next to the leader of the bandits, a strange and hideous jumping worm suddenly emerged from the ground.
The strong and powerful grasping arm stabbed into the shoulder of the bandit leader, and the head of the bandit was bitten into it with a bloody mouth.
The head of the bandit leader was bitten by Mars, and the blood and brains spewed out were scattered all over the ground, and the rest of the bandits saw this scene and rode away on horseback.
"Mars, follow me!" chased the bandits who always outnumbered them, but the bandits were nothing more than a rabble, and a single charge from Arest broke their morale, and Mars's horrific slaughter made them no longer have the urge to turn around and resist.
After killing four or five more bandits, Arest and Mars stopped, and the other bandits had fled far away.
Under a slanting moon, the lone Templar and his fellow war beasts stood on the bodies of several horse bandits, roaring in triumph.
The whole village ran out one after another, and the defeat of the horse bandits who still plagued them made them excited, and not only did they not feel uncomfortable with the severed limbs and hands on the road, but they were extremely excited.
Seeing Arest slowly returning on his horse, Renault rushed over to greet his brother's triumph.
However, after seeing Mars, he stopped suddenly, and Mars, whose mouth was still oozing blood, was too infiltrating.
"Arest, Arest, Arest!" I don't know who took the lead in shouting Arest's name, but it soon caused a chain reaction among others, everyone shouted the brave man who repelled the horse bandits, and the girl who was taken away by the horse bandits bowed excitedly.
"Everyone, calm down, it's just some horse bandits who haven't had any training, it's not worth mentioning. Arest dismounted, stroked Mars's head with one hand, and walked towards the crowd.
For Arest, the bandits may have been a trivial nuisance, but they were a demon that had tormented the villagers for a long time, and the villagers had prevented more than one counterattack, but the results were very bleak, with deaths and injuries, and some being captured as slaves.
"Rest assured, everyone, tomorrow I will go to the camp of the horse bandits to rescue the captured fathers and villagers!" said Arest.
The villagers admired Arest, but they didn't dare to approach it, and why? That's why Arest was stroking Mars.
......
The Golden Plain in the south of the empire is also the largest pasture in the empire, but the bandits here are very serious, most of these bandits have survived in this land, the people of the Cook Khanate, after the Cook Khanate was destroyed by the empire, this group of people who died refused to surrender to join the empire, nor did they want to leave, so it became a scourge for the victims.
In addition to the remnants of Kuk Khan, there are also many outlaws, such as outlaws, wanted criminals, fugitives, and many more refugees from various countries who cannot fill their stomachs.
Although there are many bandits on the Golden Plains, they are not a united team, but dozens of bandit groups of all sizes are robbing each other for the soil of survival, and the shrewd people of the empire have taken advantage of this to privately befriend a group of bandits who are biased towards the empire, and let them consume and balance each other.
The original goal of the empire was to let the bandits consume each other's strength, and then find the right time to take out all the bandits.
Theoretically, this is so, but as time goes by, unconsciously this goal has also changed its flavor.
