Rise of the Lord of Mount and Blade

“This is your lair?”

Looking at the wooden building in the distance that looks like the ruins of an ancient fortress in the distance, Richard’s face is revealed Astonished, he asked the leader of the robber with a swollen face beside him.

“Yes, Sir Sir, this is our lair.” The robber leader said in a low, muffled voice. When he was just caught, he was beaten by someone next to him in the chaos. After a few punches, his already ugly face suddenly became even more ugly, which also made him more honest.

“How did you find this place?” Richard continued to ask. It looks like a stronghold that was abandoned a long time ago, but I don’t know when they occupied it.

“I don’t know, they already occupied this place when I joined the group.” The robber leader replied honestly, and he then cautiously said: “My lord, when I left There are more than 20 brothers and some old, weak, sick and disabled in the stronghold. If you are going to attack now, I can lead you.”

“oh?” Richard glanced at him flatly. Said: “You want me to attack so actively, don’t you be afraid of being cursed by them?”

“As long as you can let me go, being cursed by them is not an important thing.” Robbers The boss laughed and said, for him, Richard is still the most threatening.

“Then you wait, we will attack again at night.” Richard coldly snorted, said, and then he was put under strict supervision. At the same time, he also ordered to go down and let the soldiers pay attention to hiding , Rest in place, and prepare to attack after night falls.

He is not going to destroy only a small group of robbers, but waits for all the robbers to return to the lair at night before launching an attack, and sweeping them all at once. Of course, there is one more thing, dark and windy night. Killing night, night is the best time for a surprise attack.

Listening to Richard saying that he would launch an attack at night, Dalton Baron, who had been standing by, approached him and said, “My lord, our soldiers can’t see clearly at night, and may not be able to attack at night.”

After hearing what he said, Richard remembered this hurdle. As aristocrats, he and Dalton usually eat more abundantly than the soldiers under them, so they don’t have night blindness, but the soldiers basically suffer from it. He has night blindness. If he can’t solve this problem, then the night attack tonight may not go smoothly.

“At that time, the soldiers can only use the torch to fight.” Richard thought for a while. There is currently no way to fundamentally solve the problem of night blindness, so there is only this way.

“I am afraid it will shock them.” Dalton Baron was a little worried, “Unless we can kill their night watchman before lifting the torch, otherwise the night attack will become a tough battle, the darkness of the night It’s even more unfavorable to us.”

Richard felt that what he said also made sense. He glanced at the rest of the crowd and saw the few mercenaries holding the crossbow. His eyes lit up and let them Several came over to talk. The mercenaries who were called by Richard were dumbfounded and didn’t know what the employer told them to do. After they came over, Richard asked, “Can you guys see it at night?”

Think of it this way, mercenaries generally speaking will eat much better food than conscripts enclosed in Fiefdom, so they have a greater chance of not having night blindness.

Sure enough, after hearing Richard’s question, two mercenary crossbowmen and three mercenary crossbowmen were nodded and said: “My lord, we can see it at night.”

hearing this , Richard’s face showed a touch of joy, and he continued to ask: “Then you can shoot the target if you fight at night?”

“This…” Richard’s question made the five mercenaries face each other. Peep, he seemed a little hesitant, after a few seconds, under Richard’s eyes, one of the mercenary crossbowmen asked, “My lord, is the target you mentioned, is he conspicuous?”

“It should be conspicuous.” Richard said hesitantly, after all, he hadn’t seen it either.

“If we were standing next to the fire, Fergus and I would be able to kill him easily.” said the mercenary crossbowman.

Richard nodded, looked towards the other three crossbowmen. The latter hesitated for a while and said: “If it’s not too far, we should be able to shoot.”

” Okay, you can go back.” Richard nodded, waved them to go back.

After the mercenaries left, Richard brows slightly wrinkle and said to Baron next to him: “Tonight, I can only pray that the five mercenaries can shoot them accurately. It’s not possible. Let’s take the gate first. , And then rushed inside to fight with the robbers. The robber’s night blindness must be more serious than our soldiers. We really have the advantage in fighting.”

Although I don’t know what Richard said about night blindness. Meaning, but Dalton has no other methods, so he can only nodded.

……

That night, the robber leader Bart’s team did not return to the lair, which made the robber leader of the nest feel a little uneasy. He kept pacing in the room from time to time. Looking outside the wide open door, I want to find a familiar silhouette.

Isted by his dangling silhouette, another man sitting on the wooden chair said impatiently: “Rodney, what are you worried about? Maybe Patna The guy is happily outside.”

“But didn’t you hear the news from our spies in Laertai? The group of Berry people who occupied the lumberyard has been wiped out by the new viscount , This is what disturbs me the most.” The man named Rodney stopped and said to the person sitting in the chair.

“What? They were wiped out?” Another man said with a surprised look, and then he shook the head again, saying: “This is impossible. They have more than 30 cavalry. Who can face it? Defeat the cavalry?”

“However, they were indeed wiped out. The new Viscount sent his men to Raltai to pass the letter, so that everyone in the town knew it.” Rodney annoyed. .

“This…”

The man named Eddie stood up suddenly and said to Rodney, “If I remember correctly, we don’t seem to have Noel Tell them about the fat pig’s death?”

“Yes!” Rodney slapped his slap, “It’s broken, but Bart might think it’s the period of Noel’s reign. He may have encountered it now. It’s unpredictable!”

“It’s not so evil…” Eddie sat down again, and said, “That new Viscount only killed the Baileys. Impossible, let us do it again so soon.” “

“If it’s Noel’s pig, it’s indeed impossible, but what we have to face is a newcomer who has never heard of it before. We don’t even know how many he has under him. Soldier.”

“Then what do you want to do?” Eddie was also a little nervous.

“Let the people under you be vigilant, we can only hope that Bart will not be captured alive by them, and then confess our hiding place.”

Rodney’s face is gloomy, one word One word.
