Chapter 299 [Encounter!]

Stone two hundred and ninety-nine chapters encounter!, let's first rewind the time to more than ten days ago,

Since he led the troops to expel the harassing Black Flag Army rangers, Char also simply took five hundred horse thieves and cavalry, and did not hurry back to the city, so he stopped by the river on the border of Mor County and Nods County, and stayed for two days in a row.

He was also sure in his heart that even if the Black Flag Army really killed him, his five hundred cavalry would be fast enough to run away even if he ran.

Five hundred horse thieves and cavalry were stationed along the county border for two days, and every day Char divided his men into five hundred men and patrolled along the border river. But two days down. There was no movement on the other side.

The Black Flag Army seems to have died down and is no longer to be seen.

Early in the morning of the third day. Char had no patience for sacrifice, so he simply took people on the way home to Denzel City.

Char was still wondering in his heart: Could it be that Hastings was really full of food, and he had nothing to send a few teams to harass Lao Tzu?

After returning to Denzel City, the reorganization of the army and the arrangement of the city defense were handed over to Green, and Char still led the cavalry to patrol around the city of Denzel every day.

The trail of the Black Flag Army is like a heavy stone pressing on Char's heart, this. If the mystery is not solved, how can he feel at ease?

This afternoon. Char took more than 30 horsemen and searched all the way to a place about twenty miles northeast of Denzel City.

Char has been running around this area several times these days, and he is already familiar with it. It's almost evening. Ran to the entrance of a small village.

Under the red sunset, the village in front of me was quiet, without a trace of vitality. Having been here a few times earlier, Char already knew that the village was empty. Originally, there were dozens of families in the village. Long before the invasion of the Odins, all the people sent by Green had been moved to the city of Denzel.

The village has been deserted for almost two months. Originally, the farmland on both sides of the village was burned by fire, but after a month-long rainy season, the abundant rain almost washed the farmland again, and the original ruin is no longer visible. The fields are untended but lush weeds grow.

When he walked outside the village, Char sat on his horse and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile and said: "This field was burned with fire, and after so much heavy rain, the grass and ashes were washed into the ground by the rain, and the land could be more fertile in the future." ”

Seeing that it was getting late, Char clicked the saber in his hand: "Let's spend the night in the village ahead." We'll go back early tomorrow morning. ”

Although this uninhabited village had been in and out a few times before, Char did not dare to relax his vigilance, and first sent a few horsemen into the village to search for it, and only after making sure that it was safe did he bring people into the village.

Because of the heavy rainfall in this year's rainy season, the village is uninhabited, and the roads are already muddy, and after the rainy season, they are exposed to the sun for two days. It has become even more pitted.

Most of the original buildings in the village were some houses made of earth and wood, and some of the houses had already collapsed and been damaged by the heavy rain for a month, and the beams of the houses had fallen down, because they were uninhabited, and they were crooked on the side of the road.

After choosing a barely intact building in the village, Char ordered his men to send out people to patrol the night. The rest of the people gathered in the courtyard of the building to rest.

In the early days, Green's scorched earth strategy was so thoroughly implemented that the granaries stored in the village had already burned to ashes, not to mention food, and even several wells had been blocked with stones. Fortunately, after the rainy season, there is a small pond at the entrance of the village, and I can barely drink horses. As for the cavalry. There are water bags and dry food that they carry with them.

The family had already lived in Denzel, and the house was empty, presumably blown by the strong winds of the rainy season, and the door panels were already on the side. Char simply led people into the house. There are not many furnishings in the house, and after being soaked in rainwater, there is a smell of **, and even a few clusters of mushrooms have grown on the wooden board in the corner. Char carefully identified it, and after making sure that it was non-toxic and edible, he asked people to boil a pot of water and happily stew a pot of mushroom soup.

This night was fine, Char's thirty horse thief cavalry. Since they can follow Char's side, they are naturally selected elites. But after all, after so many days of traveling, everyone is also tired. After drinking the delicious mushroom soup, only the night watchman was left, so he randomly found firewood and grass in this house and spread it on the ground, and lay down to rest, and in less than a moment, the sound of snoring in the house came out like a mountain to the sea.

Char, as the chief, naturally occupied the only bed board in the room, although most of the bed board had collapsed. But Char slept soundly, anyway, he was also from a bitter background, resting with a room of rough men, listening to everyone's snoring, and he didn't feel uncomfortable.

Just this one night. Char had been sleeping on the bed for less than two hours before she suddenly woke up. There was a faint weirdness in my heart, like a sign of the sixth sense, as if something big was about to happen.

Although this keen feeling cultivated in the mountains and forests since childhood does not make much sense, with Char's experience, this feeling has saved him many times.

Tonight suddenly had this strange feeling again, how could he still sleep peacefully? He simply got up, touched the fire fork in his hand, and quietly walked out into the courtyard outside the house.

Outside the yard. The cavalry of the night vigil was still conscientiously guarding the four sides, and two secret sentry posts were set up in the two houses next to the outside

Seeing Char walking out alone, the soldiers who were keeping vigil immediately greeted him, and before he could speak, Char waved his hand, signaling that the other party did not need to salute, and laughed in a low voice: "I drank too much soup at night, find a place to put water, don't shout, the brothers are tired, and they are sleeping soundly." ”

Char walked out of the yard, anyway, there was no one in this village, so he found a corner at random, opened his pants to pee, and drank a lot of mushroom soup at night.

Char's heart jumped suddenly, and he listened carefully, and after a while, he recognized it, as if it was a dog or something like that, he didn't care about it, and he staggered and was ready to go back, but he only took two steps, and suddenly he was shocked!

Nearly two of these forests have been deserted. It's been a month, not to mention food in the village. There is not a grain of food! There is nothing to eat even the rats, where are the dogs?!

As soon as this thought moved, Char instinctively realized that something was wrong.

He ran back into the courtyard, hesitated slightly, and then called only two soldiers who were on the night watch to follow him, and quietly searched in the direction from which the voice had just come.

The night was quiet, Char walked a few more steps, heard the voice just now in the distance, and quietly ran to the entrance of the village with two soldiers who were keeping vigil, and by the faint starry, he saw that there were two or three black shadows nesting there beside the small pond where the rain had accumulated at the entrance of the village, one of them put his head deep into the water's edge and was drinking, and the other two, nestled together on the ground, made a whining and moaning sound from time to time.

Char looked at it carefully for a while before she couldn't help but laugh.

Where there are dogs, it is clearly three wolves.

I don't know if it was from the nearby mountains and forests, but I actually ran to this village. Probably because the village had been deserted for too long, and there were no people, and these beasts were so bold that they actually ran to the pond at the entrance of the village to drink.

After Char saw it clearly, he gestured to the two soldiers behind him, thinking: After eating dry food for two days, go back with a wolf, and Ming'er can also get a meal of meat to taste.

He quietly tucked the fire fork back into his waist, and both soldiers carried a short crossbow in their hands, which was still a good thing that had been captured from the guards of the governor's palace in Corsica.

The three of them tiptoed up, in the dark, pounced twice, two short crossbows were fired at the same time, the two horse thief cavalry were very good, and the two wolves who hit the heads directly, the two beasts didn't snort, and they were killed directly.

But the third head was sticking out his head to drink water, Char grabbed a few steps, threw the fire fork in his hand far away, pounced, and pierced directly into the wolf's back. Char's strength was so great that this hand was thrown, and it immediately nailed through the wolf's body and firmly nailed it to the ground! The third wolf was not dead for a while. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and howled.

Char had already caught up and stepped on the wolf's neck with one foot, and with two clicks, the wolf's neck was broken.

The two soldiers behind him cheered and ran up happily to carry the carcasses of the three wolves back.

But at this time, Char saw it clearly beside him. Suddenly, his face changed, and he stared at the wolf corpse on the ground: "Yi?!What is this?!"

The corpses of the three beasts on the ground were all gray and black fur, and they looked like wolves. But the size and size are much more majestic than the gray wolves in the mountains that are common in Byzantium. It is more than two turns larger, and the fur is a little thicker.

Especially. To Char's surprise, these three wolves each wore a metal collar around their necks!!

This is clearly not a beast, but domesticated!!

The collar on the wolf's neck, Char saw it, and the two soldiers naturally saw it. Suddenly, the faces of the three of them were a little abnormal.

Char looked at the two of them, frowned, and said, "Have you ever seen anything like this?"

One of the horse thieves thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, wolves are wild and difficult to tame. We Byzantines have rarely heard of wolf tamers. However, when I heard that,"

"I heard that in the north, Odin was brave and savage, and I heard that the hunters in Odin's tribe had the habit of taming wolves, and when hunting, they would sprinkle the tamed wolves out to pounce on their prey. It's much more powerful than a hound.

At the mention of Odin, Char's face suddenly became more serious.

"And. I heard that when the Odin people were fighting, they also used tame wolves as scouts. This beast is more sensitive and less noticeable. Once they spot an enemy, these tamed beasts will run back to give warnings, and even if they encounter an enemy, these wolves have the ability to attack the enemy

Char's face was solemn, and he said in a low voice: "You go back and call out all the brothers! Please make some movements, don't make any noise, and don't light torches! Since this tame wolf is here, then the scouts of the Odin must not be far away! Damn, it seems that there is a harvest today!"

Immediately a man ran back, and in less than a moment, the rest of the cavalry had already risen, under Char's orders. Quietly led the horse to the entrance of the village, without lighting torches, and had already finished the queue.

Char looked at the wolves carefully, and suddenly laughed: "Damn, it's our luck! This kind of well-tame beast is not easy for us to detect." It's just that these three wolves are all male! Now it is the spring and summer festival, and it is the nature of all these merchants to be in estrus and make a commotion, and it is also natural for them to howl at night. Taming Guan Pei Wegan discovered. It's also those Odin scouts who are unlucky! This wolf must have left footprints on the road, let's touch it and serve those Odins in one pot!"

It is difficult to identify the footprints of wolves. But for growing up in the mountains and forests. For Char, who is skilled in hunting, identifying the footprints of wild beasts is what he does best.

A group of thirty horsemen. Char leads the way in identifying the wolf's footprints, and the people behind him follow. Quietly nocturnal.

I ran straight for most of the night, the time was close to the early morning, and I had only run for less than three or four miles, but finally I had a harvest, I ran through a wilderness, far away from the village of Fangcai, Char carefully identified the footprints on the ground, and finally looked up and saw a forest in front of him, laughed, and said in a low voice: "That's right! It should be there! These footprints came from there!"

As soon as he waved his hand, the horse thief cavalry under his command divided into two teams and quietly walked around from the left and right. Char led a team and forced directly towards the forest.

The forest is not big, even if it is a Tibetan soldier, there will be no more than 100 people, Char is self-controlled, even if he encounters a hundred and ten people of Odin's loose cavalry, he has his own town, and it is a sneak attack at night, although he only has 30 horsemen. Char is also confident that he will eat this Odin!

When he was forced to a place only a stone's throw away from this wood, Char calculated the time in his heart, and the people on both sides should be in place, so there was no need to hide his traces at this moment, so he simply shouted, led his cavalry, rode his horse, galloped, and killed the woods!

The horse's hooves were hurrying, and the distance of a stone's throw was only a moment's away, and Char led the horse into the woods. At this moment, the outflanked centaurs on both sides also arrived, and the three heads marched together, and the speed of the outflanked centaurs on both sides was a few points faster than Char's.

Char rushed into the woods when he heard the sound of fighting and a few screams.

Suddenly, a black aura rose up in front of him, and with a loud bang, the four or five big trees around the light were suddenly cut off and fell!

When Char saw it, his heart suddenly jumped darkly!

He quickened his speed, rushed over, ran another hundred and ten steps, and saw the scene in front of him. I can't help but feel a shock in my heart!!

In the woods, there were indeed Odin, but there were only three of them! On either side, two Odins were handy, burly and many, and they looked like fierce generals and the like. And the man in the middle, medium build. But he was wearing a black cloak, and under the cloak was a thin elite soft armor, standing there, although he was a head shorter than the people on both sides, but as soon as he saw the figure of that person, Char's heart almost jumped out of his cavity!

The man stood there, his face grim and arrogant, and a three-edged spear in his hand! The momentum of not being angry and arrogant, how did Char not admit it?

Hasting!!

The outflanked people on both sides had already been killed, but Hasting's three-edged war spear swept over, and the four or five cavalrymen who rushed in front suddenly led their men and horses, and turned into a blur of flesh and blood in the black arrogance!!

There were suddenly a few more corpses on the ground, but they were all Char's people!

As soon as Char saw Hasting, she knew it was bad!

He knew very well that Hasting's strength was a cut above his boss! Although he had thirty elite cavalry with him, this numerical advantage was far from enough in front of Hasting!

I think that at the beginning, Hastings rushed into the garrison in Wildfire Town, punished Bonfret, and among the thousands of defenders, rode through the long street alone, killed people on their backs, and then broke through the city gates!

There are only thirty people here, where is his opponent?!

But since they have met and have already fought, where can they retreat?

Char stiffened his head and shouted, but he jumped up from his horse, gave up his horse, and pounced in the air, swinging the fire fork in his hand, and it was a red light in an instant!

In the face of a strong enemy like Hasting, Char didn't dare to slack off at all, and as soon as he came up, he used his most popular trick, crimson and murderous!

The red murderous aura was like a glow, and it immediately forced into Hasting's black aura, and with a sonorous sound, the fire fork blocked Hasting's three-edged war spear!

Char felt a shock all over his body, and Hasting's majestic strength overwhelmed him so much that he almost got out of his hand!

Hastings also "Yi", looked at it carefully, and saw Char clearly, and his face changed: "It's you?!"

Immediately, Hasting's face turned angry: "It's you despicable liar!"

Char laughed: "Isn't it Lao Tzu!"

He took a deep breath, and had already taken out the largest crystal from his arms with his backhand and stuffed it into the handle of the fire fork, and let out a long laugh, and suddenly his whole body turned red. It was like a ball of vindictive energy that wrapped his people in it!

The large crystal had been given to him by Cavihill. Although he still hasn't figured out what exactly it is, Char knows very well that after this large crystal is embedded in the fire fork, it can multiply the power of his crimson murderous aura!

Looking at the red light on Char's body, Hasting's face became even more weird: "Hmph! Your crimson murderous aura has improved a lot!"
