The path passes through the trees, and the terrain on both sides is slightly higher and the forest is very tight.
Char and the others, under the leadership of the horse thief who led the way, hid behind the roots of the slopes on both sides of the path.
These horse thieves were obviously veterans of this kind of business, and they didn't need Char's orders, so they were busy with tasks one by one, and some people quickly pulled down thin stumbling ropes in front of the path, all painted with black paint, and in this somewhat dimly lit forest, if you didn't get closer, you couldn't see it.
The rest of them divided two legs and feet to run to the front to explore the way, and separated two to run to the far side of the forest to control the wind.
The rest of them and Char were up and down in the woods on both sides of the path, each of them cleverly found various hidden places next to the rocks behind the roots of the trees and hid them, without being told by anyone, one by one they held their breath and waited for the target to come to the door.
Seeing that these guys, who were already dressed in Imperial cavalry uniforms, did everything so well, Char didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
These guys, when it comes to this kind of roadblocking, are even more elated, and their eyebrows are dancing.
There are also people who prepare several large bags of fine sand, and when the target comes, they throw it out to confuse the other party's sight.
"Damn, it seems that these guys are all more professional than Lao Tzu."
The turtle secretly pondered in his heart.
When Uncle Ben was in the wildfire field, when he was down, he also considered doing this kind of part-time road robbery work, but he was far less familiar with these professional guys.
Just thinking about it, I heard the direction of the road in front of me, and there were a few whistles like birds chirping in the distance, and the horse thieves listened, and immediately their eyebrows fluttered, and someone next to them gently pulled Char, lowered his voice and said: "The brother in front reported that the rabbit is coming, my lord." ” After a while, in the distance, on this path in the woods, the creaking wheels were heard in the distance, and several large carriages full of loads came into everyone's sight, and in front of the carriage there were several cavalrymen wearing leather armor and carrying swords and bows in the front.
Gradually, most of the team came into everyone's sight, the number of people in this team was not too much, more than a dozen big cars, sure enough, were fully loaded, covered with thick leather mats, and I don't know what they were loaded.
The cavalry of the escort numbered about forty-five horsemen, and most of them were concentrated at the back of the wagon convoy, except for the seven or eight open roads in front.
And just after the cavalry, a delicate four-wheeled carriage, pulled by two fine horses, the carriage was well-made, the wood was black and bright with black paint, and it was obviously not something that ordinary people could sit on.
And around this carriage, there were twenty cavalrymen, all of them wearing light armor, and they were immediately hung with sabers, and there were ten people, and there were even rare military crossbows hanging on the saddles.
As soon as he saw the short crossbow, Char suddenly felt refreshed and was able to prepare this kind of rare goods, obviously the person in the carriage was extraordinary As the team gradually came to the ambush circle, suddenly a whistle sounded from both sides.
Then I heard two rumbling sounds, and at the front and back ends of the procession, two or three big trees on the side of the road were put down, and the thick trunks of the trees immediately blocked the road of the procession The people in the convoy were immediately alarmed, but on both sides of the path, among the trees, behind the rocky slopes, the horse thieves jumped out one after another.
A round of arrows rained over at the head, and a few screams were heard, and suddenly a dozen or so cavalrymen fell off their horses.
These escort cavalry were immediately busy encircling the frightened war horses, and were about to counterattack, when a few large sandbags fell all over their heads, and suddenly the dust and sand covered the sky, and many cavalry were blinded at once.
There was a shout of slaughter all around, and the horse thieves fired another round of arrows, and some people rushed down from both sides with weapons.
This path was originally narrow, there were big trees in front and behind to block the road, and the cavalry galloped forward, but did not run a few steps, the horse's hooves hit the tripwire on the ground, and immediately fell to the ground, and the horse thief caught up with the situation is a knife, stabbed into the gap in the armor on the neck, and suddenly a nest of blood flew out Many horse thieves rushed down with a shout, a face, the remaining guard cavalry was less than half, the cavalry was confined to such a narrow space, the horses could not gallop, and they could not be used.
The horse thieves were very well distributed, leaving five or six to fire cold arrows on either side, and the rest rushed into the crowd and slashed with knives.
The opposing cavalry could not move, sitting on their horses and condescendingly trying to resist, but they had to bend down to reach the enemy on the ground.
In the midst of the screams, in a matter of moments, the guards and cavalry of the front team were completely killed.
Some of these fellows were apparently well-trained, and when they saw that they were in trouble, the rest of them shouted and gathered around the magnificent carriage, and some of the elite guards took down their crossbows to shoot at the horse thieves.
This kind of military short crossbow is well-made, the rate of fire is block, and it is small and agile to hold in the hand, and there is no need to open the bow to aim, and the short crossbow arrow is loaded with three consecutive shots, and suddenly the horse thieves who rushed in front fell four or five.
The cavalry dismounted one after another, forming an array around the carriage, and for a while the situation was faintly deadlocked.
Although the horse thieves in the distance also shot with bows and arrows, the other party had an array, and also raised the small hand shields of the cavalry, clustered together, and it was obvious that the rest of them were elites, and they were not afraid to fight to the death.
The horse thieves were hindered by the opponent's sharp short crossbows, and they rushed twice for a while and did not get close, but killed and wounded several people.
Char could see clearly from behind, and suddenly shouted: "Brothers, stand back and look at Lao Tzu" The horse thieves instinctively stepped back when they heard the shouts from behind, and suddenly they heard a wind whistle overhead, and a huge black shadow swept overhead.
With a bang, I saw a huge stone the size of a table flying from behind, hitting the roof of the carriage.
The two cavalrymen who were originally standing next to the carriage were suddenly smashed and their brains burst apart The roof of the carriage was cracked.
Char clapped his hands behind him, turned his head and saw that there was another bigger rock on the ground beside him, took a few steps, bent down and hugged his hands, exhaled, and easily lifted it This stone is the size of a door panel, not ten thousand catties, but I am afraid that there are five or six thousand, Char held it in his hand, his arms and eyes faintly glowed with a red light, he shouted, and with a breath, the boulder flew over.
Then a loud click was heard, and the carriage was hit again, and the carriage of the carriage was completely smashed into it, and the planks were shattered and flying.
Many guards next to him were affected, and suddenly two or three more heads were bleeding and flesh were flying.
Many horse thieves cheered at once, only to feel that their new leader was indeed powerful But suddenly I heard a terrible and desperate cry from the other side.
"The eldest prince is dead, the eldest prince is dead" Char looked up and saw that in the carriage, which was already half a fan left, there were several pieces of broken wooden planks pressed by stones, and a person was pressed underneath.
The upper half of the man's body was pressed under the stone, only his legs were still exposed, and the robe on his body was obviously of a luxurious texture, looking at the shape, I was afraid that the upper body had become a pulp, and the dead could no longer die, and the blood on his body was flowing down the stream.
As soon as he heard the other party's mournful shout, Xia Ya suddenly waved his hand, pulled out the fire fork and rushed forward: "Brothers, just leave one or two live questions to ask."
Although the remaining guards were elite, the death of the people in the carriage was obviously a devastating blow to their morale, and they collapsed in less than a moment, and the rest of the people, seeing that more than half of them were killed and wounded, threw down their weapons, and knelt down with their heads in their hands and surrendered.
The battle soon ended, and Char had two bloodied captives come up for questioning.
The two captives were all as if they were dead ashes, and their clothes were obviously the same as those of officers in the cavalry, and they said: "The master is dead, even if we go back, we will definitely not survive, you can kill if you want." ” Char's eyes rolled: "I'll ask you, if you come back honestly, I won't kill you, and I'll give you some money and let you go, how about it?"
When the two of them heard this, they both obviously showed a little expectant looks.
"I ask you, looking at your attire, are you from the Corsican army?"

The two glanced at each other, and one of them sighed: "Yes, we are the guards of the Governor's Palace of Corsica, and I am the captain of the Guards of the Governor's Palace, and my name is Gouan." ” "Corsican Doge's Palace" Char's eyes lit up suddenly.
Then he interrogated for a while, and after the two captives made it clear, Char laughed and slapped his thigh hard, his face was strange, and there was a faint glint of eagerness and excitement in his eyes.
"Is it really God bless this random road robbery job, and kill the eldest son of the Corsican Military District" Immediately send someone to clean up the wagon and bring the body out.
The upper body of the corpse was blurred and invisible, and a head was like a rotten watermelon, but the clothes on the body were obviously not worn by ordinary people, and a gold family badge was found in his arms, which was also owned by the family of the Governor of Corsica, Carlos.
You can't go wrong with that.
Char was ecstatic in his heart, but he patiently interrogated the two captives a few more times, and finally let go.
After sending two captives to tie up and keep them in the custody of the other captives, Char summoned several of the leaders of the horse thieves to discuss.
"This is the eldest son of the governor of Corsica, and he is going to the camp of Odin to negotiate.
We fanned the flames in the middle, and the two were already fighting.
This dead ghost is going to be a peacemaker, but his fate is not good, so he will die here for us, hahahaha" The leader of the horse thieves below smiled and said: "Uncle, it seems that the gods bless, this dead ghost boy died here, without him to negotiate, the two families would definitely be bloody."
Someone next to him also smiled: "Yes, yes, it seems that we didn't work in vain, so it's good to hide aside and watch the show." ” Char touched his chin and laughed "hehe" for a while, his eyes rolled, and after a while, he shook his head solemnly: "No, no, now the Odin people are just bluffing."
Manninger, though arrogant, is not brainless.
He's just trying to scare the Corsicans.
He has a big picture and will not go to war without permission. ” Looking at the blank eyes of the horse thieves, Char smiled weirdly: "They don't fight, but Lao Tzu has a way, let them have to fight, and they can't fight if they want to."
The leader of the horse thieves asked, "Uncle, what do you say about this?"
Char was in a good mood at the moment, and he didn't even care about the other party calling him "uncle", and smiled mysteriously: "You think, the Odin people don't fight, but we can force the Corsicans to do it" "How is this forced?"
The turtle laughed: "Hmph, the eldest son of the governor of Corsica, died at the hands of the Odin.
Hehe, in this way, even if the governor of Corsica can bear it anymore, his own son died in the hands of others, this is unbearable."
There are also horse thieves below who have no heads and no brains, and someone shouted: "Aunt Yi, what kind of dead ghost prince is this, obviously we killed him, how did he die in the hands of the Odin" The organic spirit next to him pulled this person hard, and said with a smile: "Uncle said that he died in the hands of the Odin, so naturally there is a way to let this person die in the hands of the Odin, right, uncle."
Char squinted, touched his nose, and then pointed to the corpse next to him: "Pick up the clothes of this dead ghost, go get some water, and wash the clothes."
After a pause, he smiled again: "And those prisoners, and those dead guards, send a few brothers to bring their armor and weapons over." ” Although there are still people who don't understand, there are some clever ones among the horse thieves, and they have already vaguely guessed what this uncle's idea is.
After being busy for a while, a horse thief came to Char with wet clothes, and the blood stains on them were almost clear.
Sure enough, it was a good material, and after cleaning, the stain was gone.
Char put the clothes wet on his body, turned around in a circle, and said with a smile: "You see, Lao Tzu doesn't look like a young master from a rich family."
He was born in the grassy mountains, and he has half of the aristocratic spirit all over his body, but these horse thieves around him are all coarse, and everyone laughed: "Yes, yes, my uncle is naturally wise and martial, not to mention pretending to be a nobleman, even if he is an emperor, it is not bad" Xia Ya laughed, these horse thieves have no scruples when they speak, and he, a turtle, didn't think much about it when he heard it, but snorted: "Damn, Lao Tzu is just pretending for a while, pretending to be the son of the dead ghost or the Governor of Karos, it is also a big loss, but it doesn't matter, this time he pretends to be his son, next time he pretends to be his Lao Tzu, won't he get it back." ” After a pause, he touched his face: "These noble guys, they all speak softly, I still have to dress up."
