However, although the bandits were all experienced second-level soldiers, and even though they were extremely fierce, they were far from being able to compete with the relentless riders, whether it was the simple weapons and equipment they were equipped with or the number of people.
In just a few seconds, two bandits fell in a pool of blood.
Although the bandits of Latu only stopped the riders for a short moment, they still gave Ashilan precious time to escape.
The leading rider tightened the reins under his crotch, stopped the horse, glanced at the battlefield, and looked at the bodies of several companions in the pool of blood, and his eyes twitched a few times.
Then, he raised his head and looked at Ashilan's gradually receding back in the distance with a sinister look, his heart full of resentment and unwillingness.
Finally, he spat fiercely on the ground and roared with gnashing teeth: "He actually let that guy run away! You two, get off your horses and chop off the heads of these four bastards!"
After receiving the order, the two riders immediately turned over and dismounted, quickly pulled out the sharp short axes on their waists, and walked quickly to the four bandits who had fallen to the ground and died.
Between the hand and the axe, the four bloody heads were easily cut off.
Then, they tied the four heads with ropes and hung them high on both sides of the saddle. After doing all this, the two men got on their horses again and waited for the leader to give the next order.
"Boss, are you still chasing?" A rider asked.
"Chase, how can you chase, you have run so far." The leading rider said unwillingly, called on the riders to collect the bodies of their companions, and rode away.

[Bandits killed by bounty hunters]
[Bandits killed by bounty hunters]
…
In the living room, Hood and Paul were discussing the defense facilities of the outer city wall in a low voice.
But at this moment, a series of system prompts sounded in Hood's mind.
His body trembled violently, and the expression on his face froze instantly, as if he was cast under a spell.
A few seconds later, Hood came back to his senses from the shock, and he opened the team panel at a very fast speed.
When he saw the data displayed on the panel clearly, his heart couldn't help but shudder.
The column that should have been neatly lined up with ten bandits now only had six people left!
This sudden change was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart hard, making him feel heavy.
Hood didn't care about Paul's surprised expression beside him, and stood up without hesitation, striding towards the door of the living room.
He walked through the corridor and hurriedly climbed up the stairs to the top of the main castle.
On the top of the castle, the sun was blazing and the breeze was blowing. Two senior robbers on duty saw Hood appear in front of them and quickly straightened up, ready to salute the leader.
But before they could make any move, Hood had waved to stop them. His face, which was always calm and composed, was now full of solemnity. He asked eagerly, "Did you find anything unusual?"
The two senior robbers were slightly stunned when they heard this. After looking at each other, they answered in unison, "Reporting to the leader, everything is normal."
However, such an answer did not eliminate the uneasiness that kept rising in Hood's heart. He frowned, looked past the two robbers, and looked worriedly at the vast wilderness in the distance.
At this moment, a small black dot suddenly appeared on the edge of the distant sky.
As time went by, the black spot became bigger and bigger. At the same time, a faint roar drifted into the ears of everyone.
After a few minutes, the black spot finally gradually revealed his true appearance. It was the bandit Ashilan.
The mule under his crotch was panting and sweating, and he himself was in a mess, as if he had just experienced a life-and-death battle.
"Hurry up and put down the suspension bridge!"
On the outer wall, several experienced and fierce-looking senior robbers saw Ashilan's figure galloping from a distance.
Without any hesitation, they quickly turned the capstan and slowly lowered the heavy new wooden suspension bridge.
Ashilan was seen riding on a mule and rushing across the suspension bridge that had just been lowered. He did not look away, and ignored the surprised eyes of the robbers around him. He had only one thought in his mind.
Arrive at the inner city as soon as possible and inform the leader that the enemy is coming.
Soon, Ashilan rushed into the inner city. He pulled the reins hard, and the mule and horse raised their front hooves high and neighed.
Then, Ashilan jumped off the mule and horse nimbly, and the moment he landed, he grabbed the robber's clothes andThe leader, eyes wide open, shouted at the top of his voice: "Where is the leader?"
"Ashilan!"
Just then, a familiar shout came from the top of the fort.
Ashilan looked up suddenly when he heard the voice. When he saw Hood's figure appearing on the top of the fort, he seemed to have found his backbone. He immediately let go of the hand holding the robber's collar, and then ran towards the top of the fort like crazy.
Ashilan took two steps at a time and ran all the way along the stairs in the main fort, without even having time to catch his breath.
After climbing to the top of the fort, he was sweating profusely, and the sweat kept sliding down his forehead, soaking his clothes.
But Ashilan had no time to care about these things. She just bent over, supported her hands on her knees and gasped, and shouted in an anxious and slightly trembling voice: "... Head... It's bad, the enemy is coming... We met them on the road... The brothers went to stop the pursuing enemies to cover me and report back... Please give me some people... I want to rescue them!"
Although Ashilan stumbled and spoke incoherently, with the tacit understanding and understanding cultivated during this period of time, Hood still pieced together the complete meaning from the broken sentences.
In an instant, his face became gloomy, as if a dark cloud was covering it.
Hood hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised his arm, gently placed it on Ashilan's shoulder, and said in a hoarse voice: "Ashilan, everything is too late, they... have all died in the battle..."
This sentence was like a bolt from the blue sky that hit Ashilan's heart directly, and he collapsed on the cold and hard ground with a "thump" as if he had been hit hard.
His eyes were fixed on Hood, his eyes were empty, his expression was dull, and his body was trembling slightly, as if he had lost his soul.
Ashilan knew very well that Hood could use the system to keep track of the life and death of every soldier at any time. However, even so, when this cruel fact was really in front of him, he still found it difficult to accept.
Because those deceased bandits were not just his ordinary comrades-in-arms, but also brothers who had been through life and death with him and shared weal and woe!
