Chapter 129 Simple Task

In the morning, after getting up and punching a set, Locke went to the door next door and knocked on the door to call Hans and the others to go.

"Locke, what's the matter?" asked Aunt Mary warmly, who opened the door.

"I'm going to meet in town today, and I'll call Hans. Locke touched his nose, he had been more worried about this pungent aunt since he was a child.

"All right, I'll call them!" Aunt Mary opened the door for Locke in, and turned around and went to the back room to call Hans and the others.

The courtyard of Hans's house is obviously more than twice as big as Locke's, because Hans has four brothers in his family, Hans is the second, and he has an elder brother above him, who has already married and even has children, and a large family of nearly ten people lives in one courtyard, which is not big enough to fit so many people.

That is, there is a lot of labor in the family, so it is so easy to build a big house.

After a while, Hans, Kane, and Hank came out of the house yawning, and sure enough, from the languishing appearance of these guys, it was estimated that they were still sleeping lazy just now.

"Let's go, go to town!" cried Locke.

The population of Maple Leaf Village is only 200 people, and only 112 soldiers choose to join the army.

Fearing that the bandit would intrude on the village while they were away, Locke took it upon himself to let half of the soldiers stay today.

Six or seven heavily armed soldiers, plus other young and middle-aged people in the village, a group of thieves of more than ten people, if they dared to come, they would not return.

When Locke, Hans, Kane, Hank, and two other soldiers arrived at Mine Town, it was already noon.

On the way, I happened to meet soldiers from another village, and the group of soldiers walked to the town square with laughter and laughter.

There were a lot of soldiers gathered in the square at this time, Kane and Hank went into the queue of soldiers, and Locke and Hans looked for Uncle Joshak who was standing at the edge of the square.

"Uncle Joshak! Uncle Karl?" called Locke from afar.

Joshak was talking to the previous captain of the town's garrison when he heard Locke call him, turned around and smiled, "He's there too, over there." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the other side of the square, where the one-armed Karl was giving a lecture to the town's militia.

These militias were the main defense force of the mine town when Locke and other soldiers were fighting in Charlotte, and the soldiers left behind by the baron could not take care of every village and town, and the townspeople needed to arm themselves.

And the quality of these militias is worrying, almost everyone is over 35 years old, under 13 years old, either old men or children.

While Locke and Uncle Joshak were chatting, Billy, the town elder, arrived with a meal and a donkey cart full of wheat cakes.

It was their lunch, and Locke remembered that when he first joined the army and trained in the town, it was the same way, and what he looked forward to most at that time was when lunch was served, because he could eat all-you-can-eat.

"Come and eat first, boys!" called Billy, the town elder, kindly to the people in the square.

Everyone in the square did not move, and the soldiers could not move because of the discipline of the army for many years, and the commander did not speak.

The militiamen were frightened by Carl, the quality of these militias was really poor, and Carl, who had always been good-tempered in the army, was also annoyed.

He and Yoshak, one singing white-faced and the other red-faced, have packed up this group of militiamen these days.

Carl and Yoshak are different from Locke and the others, they are both townspeople from Mine Town, they have lived in the town these days, and they have a good understanding of the situation in the town.

"Any mission?" Locke asked Uncle Joshak as he bit the wheat cake in his hand.

"yes. Yoshak sighed, "It's not safe to come back......"

The surrounding soldiers had already begun to receive the meal in an orderly manner, and a few big-shouldered cooks helped distribute it.

Karl also stopped reprimanding the militia, who did not have the discipline and order of the regular soldiers, and rushed to grab food.

Carl didn't stop it, he guessed that the militia would hit a wall.

Sure enough, after being a professional soldier for a few years, these soldiers with the blood of the Charlotte on their hands would so easily let this group of miscellaneous cards rob them of their own rations?

"Bang, bang, bang!" Several of the fastest militia boys felt a complete over-the-shoulder fall, and everyone bared their teeth and howled on the ground, obviously not lightly.

Of course, the soldiers were also measured, but they only hurt them, and did not cause any substantial damage.

When the militia saw this, the people who came later lined up at the back of the line with their eyes, and several older ones even smiled and came up to talk and deal with the soldiers.

Ignoring the commotion of the soldiers, Locke and Joshak, Carl, and Hans gathered in a corner of the square, and in addition to them, the town elder Billy was also there.

"What is the task?" Locke asked, and although he had guessed roughly, it was best proposed by Uncle Joshak, who was the leader of the group.

Joshak didn't speak, and Billy, the town elder next to him, spoke, "The Baron asked each of us to send troops to deal with the thieves and robbers around us. ”

Locke nodded in understanding, he looked down on these unscrupulous bands of thieves, and if he dared to stand up in front of him, Locke could destroy the team by himself.

This is not a joke, Locke should be the most powerful person in Mine Town at the moment, the physical fitness and vindictive energy bonus of the low-level squire, unless he is exhausted, ordinary people don't want to get close to him.

The only ones who knew Locke's true strength were a few squadron leaders such as Yoshak, and most of the soldiers in the battalion didn't know, and they just thought that the strength of several squadron leaders was about the same.

Town Elder Billy had a worried face, he didn't know Locke's true strength, and he was the mayor of the town who was most annoyed by the large and small thieves around Mine Town over the years.

Sometimes it is even necessary to make three chapters with these bands of thieves to meet certain requirements in order to keep the mine town and its subordinate villages from being harassed.

This made him, who has been the mayor of the town for decades, extremely aggrieved over the years.

"What goals do we have?" Joshak is a straightforward man, he just needs to have a mission goal.

Old Billy didn't answer directly, but said, "There are three largest bands of thieves around, the Red Maple Bandits, the Boulder Brothers, and the Geert Bandits. ”

"Then let's take these three first!" Uncle Yoshak decided.

"Which one to start with?" said Billy Sr., graciously.

"The Red Maple Thieves are a gang of thieves who have fled from the east, with more than thirty men and a few horses. ”

"The leaders of the Boulder Brothers are twin brothers who came out of nowhere, both of whom are extremely powerful and have a large group of thugs under them. ”

"Geert bandits," old Billy paused, before he said, "Most of them are made up of ruffians who don't want to be soldiers in our mining town, and you don't have to look at it, the mining town has long denied these people." ”

Not only Old Billy, but almost all the townspeople of Mine Town are ashamed of the Gilt Bandits.

"We have a total of four squadron leaders in the mining town, and we must be able to suppress bandits faster than other towns. Old Billy laughed, and said that this was also the capital he bragged about like his colleagues who were also mayors in other towns.

The baron only had four infantry squadrons under his command, and they had four squadron leaders in the mine town, and there was also a squadron leader of a cavalry squadron, which made him more face-saving than the other town chiefs.

"Don't bother!" Joshak interrupted with a wave of his hand, "pick one for each person." He turned to Locke and the others.

"I'll lead the cavalry of the Red Maple Thieves. Locke took the lead and said that since this thief group has horses, in order to prevent any fish from slipping through the net, Locke led the cavalry to just right.

"The Boulder Brothers have handed it over to me. Hans grinned and said he wanted to see how powerful the boulder brother was, and if he could withstand his punch.

"Then the Girt bandit will be handed over to me. Uncle Yoshak laughed.

"Looks like I'm going to have to look after the house. Carl laughed at himself, because he lost an arm, his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, this operation to eliminate thieves, it is best for Captain Carl's squadron to stay in the mine town, even if he loses an arm, ordinary bandits don't want to hurt Carl.

"That's it!" Joshak decided, and began to gather the soldiers, and there was a kind of neatness in the army, and he planned to send the soldiers out to suppress the thieves in the afternoon.

"Is Carl really enough?" Old Billy hesitated, he was the one who knew the most about the thieves near Mine Town, and he felt that the decision of Joshak and the others was too hasty.

"Don't worry, I promise!" Joshak reassured him.

There are only a dozen cavalry in Mine Town, but even these more than ten people, Locke is confident that under his leadership, he will completely annihilate the red maple thief.

Winter nights always come quickly, and after Locke and the others made a decision, they soon led their teams to set off, and a group of more than ten cavalry roared through the mountains and forests in the evening.

Each knight was covered in blood, as if he had just returned from hell.

If you look closely, you will find that the tail of the war horse is tied with cloth bags one by one, and the cloth bags are bulging in a ball-like shape, if it is a familiar person, you can see at a glance that it is all human heads!

The shuttle of this blood-colored cavalry startled countless birds in the mountains and forests.

The leader was a knight in bright yellow armor, and under the armor helmet, only a pair of indifferent eyes were revealed.

This man was none other than Locke, who had just led a team to slaughter the Red Maple Thieves, and almost every soldier had just slaughtered at least one Red Maple Thief.

It's funny to say that the base camp of this gang of red maple thieves is actually there, the main road between the mine town and the outside world, in the maple leaf forest outside the town, and even very close to Locke's maple leaf village, they are really not afraid of death.

If Locke had been so close to him two days ago, he might have called Hans and the others to trouble them directly, two strong people with a fighting spirit in cultivation, to bully a group of ordinary people who have no fighting spirit, don't be too simple.

On this trip, Locke's cavalry was also killed, they had never seen such a weak opponent, and they were still the same cavalry.

Armed with sturdy armor, knightly spears, battle formations, and rich experience in the enemy, Kaidozi led the cavalry against this gang of thieves who could only play prestige in front of the common people, which was simply a one-sided slaughter.

Because of the urgency of time, this trip only slaughtered the thirty-two members of the Red Maple Thieves, and the horses and treasures belonging to the Red Maple Thieves were still in place, ready to be dealt with tomorrow.

In Locke's eyes, spending time with his loved ones now is far more important than anything else.
