Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

Chapter 198

"If the Red Tassel Armored Cavalry escapes, our camp is no longer safe and may be attacked by the Kuyel people at any time, so we have to move to another place." Hod patiently explained to Ashilan.

Ashilan nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"You continue to rest." Hod said softly, and then got off the carriage.

Batu saw this scene, hurriedly reached out and patted Ashilan's broad and strong chest beside him, and then quickly followed Hod's footsteps and jumped off the carriage.

"Boss..." As soon as he got off the car, Batu saw Hod looking in the direction of Milda Castle.

Batu couldn't help but feel a little curious, and walked to Hod and asked: "Boss, what are you looking at?"

Hearing Batu's question, Hod shook his head.

But after a while, he suddenly raised his head as if he had thought of something important, and said to Batu with a flash of excitement in his eyes: "Batu, you said, at this time, the main force of the Kuyel people is attacking Mirdaborg, so will the number of their soldiers distributed in other strongholds be reduced accordingly?"

After listening to Hod's words, Batu nodded without hesitation without even thinking about it and replied: "That must be it! The last time I went to investigate the situation, I found that many camps of the Kuyel tribe were built around Mirdaborg. Obviously, they have concentrated most of their troops there."

"As for those strongholds scattered around, they must be small tribes with little combat power."

After listening to Batu's reply, Hod's brows knitted tightly together, he slowly lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, Hod seemed to have made up his mind. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Batu and said, "Order the team to stop! Then call Monkron, Jeff, Kuhn and Orville over!"

Batu heard this without any delay. He turned around and left in a hurry.

Not long after, the team that was still on the march gradually stopped.

Monkron, Jeff, Kuhn, Orville and other backbones of the team also rushed to Hod's side one after another.

"Boss, what happened?" Monkron asked as soon as he arrived.

The faces of several other people also showed solemn expressions, and they were obviously very confused about this emergency stop.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Hod took a deep breath and then told the plan that had just formed in his mind.

He planned to lead the team to take the initiative to attack the Kuyel people's stronghold.

First, this opportunity can be used to allow the soldiers in the team to accumulate more experience to advance to a higher level of arms. Second, it is to gather some young and strong herdsmen to join his own army, so as to continue to expand his cavalry team.

After all, the Marquis of Angana is eyeing him covetously and always wants to kill him. If he wants to survive and develop, he can only constantly strengthen his strength to give himself the most fundamental security.

After listening to Hood's idea, no one objected. They have long been frustrated. As an arm manifested from the system, even the Vlandia soldiers are eager to fight all the time.

"Then, let's act!!" Seeing that no one objected, Hood said in a deep voice.

————

Dozens of miles away from the ruined village, there is a hill. On this hill, a Kuyel tribe that does not even have a tribe name has established a stronghold here.

The stronghold is not too large, with an area of ​​only about one acre, and a circle of one-person-high wooden fences are erected around it.

The population of this tribe is not large, with only 70 to 80 people in the whole tribe, and 30 to 40 adult males.

Among these men, only eight can be called tribal warriors, and the rest are ordinary herdsmen.

Compared with the original tribes of the rangers who were loyal to Hod, this tribe is even weaker.

However, it is precisely for this reason that they were arbitrarily arranged here by the big headman to whom they are vassal.

They were responsible for capturing the Estera farmers who escaped from the nearby areas into the mountains and forests, and escorted them to Milda Castle to serve as slave soldiers for siege.

Otherwise, if their tribe was larger, they would not have to build a stronghold here, and they could occupy a village and live a better life.

However, since they established their stronghold, they have successively captured hundreds of Estera farmers and sent them to Milda Castle.

And it was with this merit that they also received rewards from the big headman, a set of chain mail with some gaps and ten scimitars made of fine iron.

When these precious rewards were brought back to the base, the whole tribe was instantly excited!

Everyone cheered with excitement. After all,For such a weak tribe, these sophisticated weapons are undoubtedly a huge fortune.

With them in hand, they will have a greater chance of victory in future battles.

Their leader also ordered the slaughter of a sheep for celebration, which made everyone in the tribe smile even more brightly.

Just when the whole stronghold was filled with excitement and joy, a large number of enemies were quietly approaching outside their stronghold.

Listening to the cheers coming from inside the stronghold, Hod raised his head slightly, glanced in the direction of the sound, and muttered to himself with a puzzled look on his face: "Don't these Kuyel people even have a sentry?"

Nott, who was standing aside, couldn't help but grin and smiled contemptuously: "Humph, who knows what these guys are thinking? We are almost under their noses, and they are still shouting there!"

After listening to Nott's words, Hod smiled faintly, then turned around and cast his eyes on the group of robbers and Vlandia soldiers behind him who had been unable to hold back and were eager to try.

He slowly drew out the long sword on his waist and held it tightly in his hand.

"Attack!!!"

Suddenly, the arm swung down suddenly. Although there was no sound, everyone understood and understood that this was the signal to launch an attack.

In an instant, everyone rushed towards the stronghold like a tide.

Such a big movement obviously could not be hidden from the attention of the Kuyel herdsmen in the stronghold. Several herdsmen wearing tattered fur coats walked out of the stronghold to check.

However, as soon as they leaned out, dozens of crossbow arrows came whistling.

These crossbow arrows were extremely fast, carrying a strong impact force, and in the blink of an eye, the unprepared Kuyel herdsmen were pierced into hedgehogs.

This time, the Kuyel people in the stronghold completely realized that something was wrong. The burly leader wearing chain mail angrily called on his people to fight back.

Other young and strong herdsmen responded one after another, picked up their weapons and rushed out of the stronghold with the leader. They wanted to kill the group of attackers who dared to attack them.
