Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

In the forest outside the canyon, Hod leaned against a big tree, his eyes fell on Barnett and his group who had returned from investigating the news.

When he noticed that Barnett and the others looked gloomy, he couldn't help but feel a little confused and worried.

"Boss, what's wrong? What happened?"

Nott, Roy and Kuhn noticed the strange look on Hod's face, quickly approached him and asked with concern.

Hod narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a serious tone: "The group of robbers inside may not be easy to deal with."

Hearing this, Nott was stunned and asked with a puzzled face: "Huh? It's just more than 30 robbers. With so many of us, can we still beat them?

However, facing this question, Hod did not answer, but whispered to Nott and the other two: "If a fight really breaks out, we will find a chance to leave here. "

There are so many people in the encirclement and suppression team, but there are only more than 30 robbers. Such a huge difference in numbers actually makes Barnett look worried, which is enough to prove that the robbers in the canyon are not easy to deal with.

Nott and his three men are the only three second-level soldiers under Hod except Monkron. He doesn't want them to die here, especially Nott, who is only a few heads away from being promoted to a third-level soldier.

Just then, the captain named Nakawen came over with a few guards. He looked at the scattered mercenaries and bounty hunters in the mountains and forests, and shouted: "Lord Barnett has ordered to cut down trees and build siege equipment. "

After saying that, he turned and left with the guards.

Instantly, the mercenaries in the forest became agitated, whispering and talking, and it was obvious that they were dissatisfied with this matter.

However, when they saw that the more than 20 crossbowmen had taken down their crossbows at some point and were intentionally or unintentionally facing this side, everyone became honest.

Some people took one-handed axes as weapons and chopped down suitable trees beside them directly, and those without axes also hurried to help these people.

Hod glanced at the guards and crossbowmen who were staring at this side, and sighed regretfully: "We can't run away, let's work."

After saying that, he took Nott and the other two towards the mercenaries who were cutting trees.

"Sir, those mercenaries and bounty hunters have already started cutting wood. "The man who gave the orders to the mercenaries came to Barnett and reported in a low voice.

Barnett nodded expressionlessly, and then said: "The bandits should have discovered something was wrong. Take your seventh team to block the entrance of the canyon to prevent them from launching a surprise attack."

"Understood, sir." After responding with his head down, Kawen quickly led his team members to the direction of the canyon entrance.

"Dick, I will command the sixth crossbow team temporarily. Since Roy is dead, you will be the captain of the eighth team."

Barnett said to another captain who had been standing quietly beside him.

"Yes, sir. "The captain named Dick immediately answered respectfully.

As Barnett guessed, the bandits in the wooden fort soon discovered the siege team outside the canyon, and some bandits tried to come out to check the situation.

However, they were repelled by the guards led by Nakawen who had been prepared for a long time. After leaving two bodies, the remaining bandits ran back to the wooden fort.

The mercenaries and bounty hunters in the forest made more than a dozen wooden ladders in a short time. Although they did not look strong, they were found after testing to be able to withstand the weight of several people climbing at the same time.

When everything was ready, Barnett stood up, stared at the crowd in the forest, and shouted loudly:

"I will not interfere with the daily wages Henry promised to give you, but what I want to tell you now is that no matter who it is, as long as he successfully kills a bandit, I will give him a silver deer as a reward. "

After speaking, Barnett quickly drew the long sword at his waist, swung it fiercely in the direction of the canyon, and roared: "For the silver deer, let's kill them all together! "

"Roar~"

Hearing this news, the mercenaries and bounty hunters who had risked their lives for the silver deer immediately became excited. They shouted slogans and carried wooden ladders to charge towards the canyon.

They quickly ran down from the mountains and forests and swarmed into the canyon.

Looking at the mercenaries and bounty hunters who left like wild dogs, Barnett followed slowly with the town guards.

He looked at this group of unorganized mercenaries with a gloomy face, and was very dissatisfied with their behavior.

Nakawen at the entrance of the canyon saw the mercenaries carrying wooden ladders and immediately ordered his guards to make way for the mercenaries and bounty hunters to continue moving forward.

He stood aside, observing the situation calmly, ready to respond to any possible situation at any time.

At this time, Hod and the other fourBeing caught in the crowd and unable to escape, Hood wanted to find a chance to leave, but the guards behind him were holding short spears and staring at them, so he dared not act rashly.

"Nott, be careful and protect yourself." Seeing this, Hood gritted his teeth, drew out his short sword, held it tightly in his hand, and rushed towards the wooden fort with the crowd. He knew that there was no chance to escape now, so he could only rush forward.

The robbers on the wooden fort took action immediately when they saw the mercenaries rushing over.

They quickly organized their men, picked up bows and arrows, and fired a sporadic rain of arrows at the crowd below.

"Swoosh..."

"Swoosh..."

A dozen arrows with flat arrowheads fell from the air like raindrops and instantly fell into the crowd.

"Ah..."

"It hurts!"

"Help!"

For a while, people screamed one after another, and blood stained the ground red.

"Head!" Nott and the other two were shocked when they saw this scene. They quickly raised their round shields and moved towards Hod, trying to use the shields to block the arrows for him.

"Boss, hide behind us!" Nott shouted, and Hod did not hesitate, and quickly bent down and hid under the round shield.

Three round shields protected Hod's head, forming a small defense circle to block the arrows that kept falling for him.

Those without shields also ran towards the mercenaries with shields as soon as possible. Whether it was a round shield, a kite-shaped shield, or an elliptical shield, as long as it could block arrows, there were several people standing under each shield at the same time.

For a while, the scene became chaotic, and this scene made Barnett's face turn black in the back, but these mercenaries and bounty hunters were all free, and even he had no right to command these mercenaries, and could only tempt them with money.

Seeing the mercenaries stop moving forward, Barnett waved his hand, and the guards and crossbowmen ran out quickly from behind him.

In the open space ahead, the guards and crossbowmen simply lined up in two horizontal rows, loaded their crossbows, and waited for orders.

"Fire!"
