Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

On the vast wilderness, a team was slowly emerging.

The team was led by a young rider covered in blood, followed by three carriages full of goods, and surrounded by more than a dozen fat and strong horses.

As they gradually approached, the figures of the people became clearer and clearer.

The group was Hood and Nott, the robbers who had fled from Rhine Town not long ago.

"Huh..." Hood, the leader, suddenly tightened the reins and made the horse under his crotch stop steadily.

He looked around vigilantly, and his sharp eyes finally fixed on the lush grove not far away after scanning a circle.

Almost without hesitation, Hood immediately turned his horse's head, squeezed his legs hard on the horse's belly, and galloped towards the grove.

Seeing this, the robbers on the carriage behind him also reacted quickly and followed Hood closely.

Not long after, the group of people disappeared in the woods.

Hod quickly got off the horse and skillfully tied the reins in his hand to a short and thick tree.

Then, as if all his strength was drained away in an instant, he sat down heavily on the ground, breathing heavily.

After such a long time of running and escaping, he felt that every bone in his body was about to fall apart, and the pain was unbearable.

At the same time, Nott, Monklon and others also jumped off the carriage.

They quickly divided the work and cooperated. Several robbers were responsible for collecting the scattered horses and arranged people to stand guard nearby to prevent the enemy from tracking them.

The rest of them walked quickly to Hod and gathered together.

At this time, Hod was already exhausted and almost had no strength to raise his hands.

He raised his head slightly, waved his hand weakly, and said, "Let's eat something to replenish our energy first..."

Hearing this, the two girls Emma and Bertha standing by did not dare to neglect it. They turned back to the carriage and took out the bread and water bags with quick hands and feet. Then they hurriedly sent them to Hood and others and distributed them to the robbers.

"Boss, the brothers are all dead..." Nott took the bread, took a big bite, and said with a depressed look.

Hood sighed. Facing this situation, although he was unwilling, he could only face the reality that he failed.

"We will avenge them, Nott." Hood patted Nott on the shoulder and said softly.

Nott nodded silently and continued to eat the dry and cold bread to replenish his energy.

While eating the food, Hood opened the team panel in his mind. The 35/80 number displayed on it made him feel heartbroken.

In addition to Paul and the twenty robbers who stayed in the manor, he suffered heavy losses this time. Not only did many of the second- and third-level soldiers who had been with him for a long time die, but even the first-level robbers who were temporarily recruited at the beginning also died nearly a hundred people.

The only thing that Huo De was lucky about was that they escaped successfully. There were more than 600 silver deer in the backpack, enough for him to recruit new robbers.

Rhine Town!! Conrad!!

Sooner or later, I will come back!!!

Huo De bit the bread and swore in his heart that this time could be said to be his most embarrassing time since he crossed into this world.

Not only did the plan to occupy Rhine Town fail, but he himself almost died there.

This revenge must be avenged!!!

After quickly finishing the bread, Huo De stood up, looked at the direction of Rhine Town, and said in his heart.

"Let's go, keep on going."

Huo De, who had recovered a little physical strength, waved his hand and called everyone to get on the car.

Kingsley Manor.

At this time, in the reception room of the manor, Paul was sitting quietly in a chair with his eyes closed, as if he was thinking about something important.

Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence, and a burly, bearded bandit rushed in.

"Paul! We have caught all the new criminals in the nearby forest!" The bandit named Batu shouted loudly, and the whole reception room was buzzing.

Hearing this sudden shout, Paul slowly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of surprise in his eyes, but soon regained his calm.

He smiled and looked at the bandit in front of him with a smug look on his face, and asked softly: "No one is injured?"

Batu shook his head, strode to the side, pulled out a stool and sat down heavily.

He panted and shouted, "How could anyone be injured? They are just a group of farmers who lost their land. How can they fight?If I hadn't felt sorry for them, I would have killed them all long ago!"

"Oh, then they are really unlucky to run into you..." Paul smiled slightly, and then asked: "How many people did you catch?"

Batu picked up the water cup on the table, took a sip of water, then wiped the corner of his mouth and replied: "Well... except for a few people who resisted and were killed by us, a total of thirteen were caught. But these guys are so skinny that they are probably starving."

At this point, Batu frowned and continued: "In my opinion, we have to take good care of them first, otherwise if we let them go to work directly, I'm afraid they will be exhausted to death in a short time." After saying that, he sighed helplessly.

"Then let's take care of them first. There are fewer and fewer criminals nearby. If we want to catch some laborers, we have to go to farther places. Now these people have become precious. "Paul thought for a while before saying.

"Well, OK, then I'll arrange them to live in the shed outside first, and let them work when they are stronger." Batu replied.

After that, Batu stood up and walked out of the reception room. After walking out of the main castle, he strode out of the manor.

At this moment, the scene at the entrance of the manor has been completely renewed.

The two simple watchtowers built of wood have now been replaced by more solid stone towers about seven meters high.

On the tower, two burly robbers are standing solemnly, looking around vigilantly.

The manor wall that already existed has also been carefully The renovation not only increased the height, but also widened the width much more than before.

The top of the wall is no longer ordinary, but cleverly designed into the shape of a buttress wall. Moreover, at certain intervals, protruding side towers are built to reinforce the entire wall.

The location of these side towers is just right. If there is an attack from foreign enemies in the future, archers can be deployed on them for defense, so as to more effectively resist the enemy's attack.

Walking out of the gate of the manor, what comes into view is a busy construction site .

Here, the newly built outer wall has taken shape. Unlike the solid inner wall, which is made entirely of stone, the outer wall is made of wood.

The reason why wood was chosen to build the outer wall is that it is convenient to obtain materials and that wooden walls are obviously faster to build than stone ones.

According to the clear requirements put forward by Hood, the entire manor was originally designated as the main castle area by him, becoming the exclusive residence for him and the robbers.

At the same time, he ordered Paul and others to expand the space outside around this "main castle" and start building a larger manor.

In this process, a series of new buildings will also be built, such as training grounds for training local soldiers, stables for horses to rest, large warehouses for storing supplies, mills for processing grains, blacksmith shops for making farm tools and weapons, wells and watchtowers, and wooden houses.

Through such planning and construction, Hood attempted to completely transform this small manor into an indestructible small fortress.
