Chapter 47: Rescuing the Hostages

Compared to Wren's work, Mo He's things are much simpler. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

There were already mercenaries who took hostages near the cage, so his appearance in the cage did not attract the attention of the high sentinel for the time being.

After evading the sentinel and killing a bandit patrolling the cage, some of the hostages in the cage noticed Mo He's actions.

In order to make the operation go smoothly in the future, Mo He temporarily decided to release these hostages, willing to cooperate with the escapees, and unwilling to stay or find a way by himself.

Then he didn't care about being exposed, Mo He wielded the silver iron spear, luckily stabbed through the log with the thickness of the cage's arm, and then twisted the penetrating log with force, opening a cage gap that could barely pass one person.

"If you are willing to escape together, follow me!" Mo He said to the people in the cage, and then opened several nearby cages in the same way.

The nearby bandits and the sentinels on the high ground had also noticed Mo He's actions, and by this time Wren had already finished lighting the fire in the stable.

The bandits at the sentinel picked up iron tools and struck them vigorously with short sticks, sending out an alarm signal, and more bandits noticed the anomaly in the cottage.

Mo He noticed a strange thing, the sentries at a certain side of the sentry on the high side were all dead, he didn't see who killed them, but those sentries who still needed him to worry about guarding were all dead, and the bodies were lying on the sentry.

It may be that other mercenaries are helping, Mo He didn't think much about it, killing these sentries helped him a lot, with a blind spot where he could dodge attacks from the top down, his actions were safer, and the hostages who fled in panic were less casualties.

When Wren set fire to the bandit hut, Mo He killed several bandits who rushed from the ground with the help of a few male hostages, and had already opened the gap in the hostage cage in Guanyoumai Village.

Seeing Mo He open the gap, a girl in a shabby skirt closest to the gap stood up and was about to get out, but was grabbed and pushed aside by a girl in a fancy dress behind her, and then came out of the gap by herself.

Mo He recognized this girl, it was the girl in fancy clothes who called the old village chief grandpa.

As soon as the girl came out, she shouted at Mo He, "Quick, get me out of here!"

Seeing that Mo He didn't move, she became even more anxious: "Hurry up, why are you still stunned? It should be my grandfather who gave you the money, and if you rescue me, you will complete the task." They all have long legs on their bodies and will escape. ”

The other two girls in fancy clothes also came out rudely, urging Mo He to take them away together with the granddaughter of the old village chief.

Mo He was indifferent, he waved the silver iron gun in his hand and swung a crossbow arrow that was shot at the old village chief's granddaughter from a distance, and then dragged the frightened girl aside to hide.

He wants to rescue the eight girls completely this time, not for money, but to meet everyone's expectations, to meet the expectations of Wren, Sha Anna, and the eighth master, the entire Little Daisy Mercenary Group has made it clear that they want to rescue the hostages, so he must live up to everyone's expectations and work hard with everyone to complete this task.

Now he is more concerned about a girl in ordinary clothes who was beaten by the granddaughter of the old village chief, the other three girls have come out, and the girl who is still in the cage is still with her feet and another girl who helped her to leave.

Leaving from here, there is still some distance from the door to the eighth master, and if the girl with the foot is not easy to move, it will be quite dangerous when passing through that distance.

He looked back at the group of hostages who followed him, and then said to them, "Which of you can help hug this girl with a broken foot?"

A tall and strong shirtless man with a saber picked up from the bandit's corpse offered to help, he handed the saber to an unarmed hostage beside him, and then reached out to help the girl out of the cage, and finally held her easily in his arms with both hands.

More and more crossbow arrows flew, and another hostage fell to the ground with arrows.

Mo He saw Wren coming towards him, followed by a group of bandits with all kinds of weapons.

"Don't panic, everybody. I'll go back and pick up my friend, and he'll take you out of the door in my place. Mo He said to the dozens of hostages behind him, and pointed to the door where he was about to leave in a moment.

Most of the hostages expressed their obedience to Mo He's arrangement, and some of them, such as the granddaughter of the old village chief and the other two girls in fancy clothes, had already planned to go to the gate by themselves, but they saw some bandits on the way to the gate, and then they couldn't move.

A few crossbow arrows stuck in the surrounding cages, causing them to crouch down screaming, not daring to move around any more.

Mo He dropped the hostages and ran back, and when he staggered past Wren, he shouted to Wren: "You take them to the gate first, and I will cut them off." ”

"Okay, hold on, I'll be back to help you later!" Wren replied loudly.

Mo He stopped the bandits chasing behind Wren with a horizontal gun, fought with them in a group, and began to drill out of bandits from all directions to support.

Four crossbow arrows flew sideways, Rento held a shield in front of the hostage team to open the way, and encountered the bandits blocking the way in the middle, most of them would be knocked down by him with a sword, and few small bandit leaders could block a few counterattacks, but they would soon be put to the ground by Ren's long sword and shield.

Some of the bandits who traveled next to them would engage the people who took the initiative to pick up weapons among the hostages, and Wren would go back to help them after finishing the bandits next to him, and the speed of the march was not optimistic.

On the way, they passed through some cages, and there were still many hostages in them, and they had already seen Wren and the others, and shouted for help.

Wren looked at them, then at the hostages who fled together behind him, and at Mo He, who was fighting with the pursuers, frowned and lowered his head to continue on his way.

Some of the hostages who didn't get a response began to kick and smash the cage to break out, some threw things out to attract attention, and some cried loudly.

I finally left the cage area and came to the open space between the gate and the cage area, where there were few obstacles, and a large number of casualties would definitely occur if you rushed through.

Wren looked left and right, and soon found the items that covered the arrows, several wooden chests, and the brazier around the cage.

Wren told the hostages what he meant, and they began to dismantle the wooden crates and dump the oil from the brazier.

Although there were some improvised shields, there were thirty or forty hostages, and there were not enough people who were even half equipped.

Time was pressed and there was no longer any hesitation, Wren shouted and charged, and then appeared in the clearing himself first to attract the fire of the crossbow arrows from above.

Some of the hostages behind them bravely rushed out, while others were afraid to curl up behind the cage and hide, and a few of the hostages who had obtained improvised shields took the initiative to help those who did not have shields to leave together.

The tall and handsome young man who was holding the girl with the foot waited for a round of crossbow arrows, and then rushed out, and one of the hostages with the brazier protected him, but was hit directly in the head by the stray arrow, and fell to the ground with the pot.

The young man holding the girl did not stop, and continued to hold the girl in his arms and hurried towards the door.

In a short distance of 20 meters, seven or eight hostages fell, and many others were wounded by arrows.

Most of the people had already rushed to the gate, and a few remained where they were, not daring to come out.

Wren saw that there were a few of the rescued girls - three in fancy clothes, two in plain clothes, and the rest of the girls had successfully passed through the danger zone and reached the gate.

"You guys hide behind me with my shield!hurry!, if you hesitate, you'll have to stay here!" Wren said loudly to the girls.

Wren then raised his shield to cover his head, stretched his body, exposed his armor, and beckoned the girls to come with him.

"Don't squeeze, the spot is mine. The granddaughter of the old village chief was the first to run to Wren and occupy the best position, and the two girls in gorgeous clothes behind her reacted and followed, wanting to compete with her, while the remaining two girls in plain clothes, although they were very afraid to leave the temporary safe place, but the fear of being left behind them also made them uneasy, so they followed behind Wren with trepidation.

Wren didn't care to say anything more, and began to move in the direction of the gate with a few girls, at first slowly, and then faster and faster, and the girls could only follow his rhythm through the clearing quickly.

Unfortunately, a plain girl was hit by an arrow in the back and fell halfway, and Wren didn't even bother to look back, maintaining a protective position and leading the remaining girls through the clearing and reaching the gate.

After checking the girl I had just brought over, a girl in plain clothes was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and a girl in a fancy dress had a bruise on her scalp, and finally arrived safely.

Wren turned back to check on the girl who had been hit by the arrow in her back, and found that she was no longer breathing, and then raised her shield to resist the crossbow arrows that came from the shot, and ran in the direction of Mo He.

As for the situation of the gate, he had already seen it, the eighth master completely controlled the gate area, and there were many bandits who were nailed with ice crystals near the door.

The gorge behind the gate was steadily protected by the eighth master with several ice jade shields, and there were people in the hostages who took the initiative to help defend with weapons, so Wren could rest assured that he would answer Mo He.

From Wren's point of view, Mo He has completely fallen into the siege of bandits, and the situation is very dangerous.

But from Mo He's point of view, the situation is still under control, although there are many bandits around, but there are few who can really fight, and most of them are blocked by cages, and there is no complete blind spot surrounding.

At the beginning, Mo He and the bandits fought at a distance, but the cunning bandits used crossbow arrows to sneak attack him through the gap in the cage, but fortunately he reacted quickly and was not successfully attacked.

However, Mo He also knew that it was just luck, if it wasn't for someone using crossbow arrows to help kill a few of the sneak attackers, even if he was aware of the attack, he had to dodge the attacks of multiple crossbow bolt sneak attackers at the same time, and he had to fight with other bandits, he couldn't do such a thing now.

In his heart, he adjusted his strategy, tried to stick to the bandits, and used the cage to block the way of most of the bandits, he kept spinning and waving the silver iron spear, wandering between the bandits, attracting most of the bandits.

With the bandits by his side, even if he is attacked, the chance of being shot is much smaller, and it is very convenient to use them as shields at critical moments.
