Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

Since learning that the brutal bandits near Rhine Town had been wiped out, merchants from all over the country have been eager to move.

They traveled day and night, hoping to reach Rhine Town as soon as possible and seize the market opportunity.

After all, during this period, Rhine Town will definitely be in trouble due to the lack of various supplies. As long as they can enter the town smoothly, they can sell their goods at a high price and make a huge profit.

In this team, in addition to those merchants and craftsmen who dream of getting rich, there are also some uninvited guests.

For example, those gorgeous girls with heavy makeup, their appearance is not accidental, but has ulterior motives. Most of these girls are prostitutes.

They came here not only to make money, but also to find new opportunities and customers. They know that in this chaotic era, only by seizing opportunities can they survive.

The caravan suddenly stopped moving forward, and all the carriages were connected head to tail, forming an irregular square formation. The caravan guards held short spears and long swords, watching the movements around them vigilantly.

The crowd following the caravan began to panic, but under the rebuke of several caravan guards, they gradually calmed down and stayed in the car formation without daring to move.

The caravan leader on the carriage was wiping the sweat from his forehead at this time, standing anxiously in the middle of the guards. He looked into the distance and eagerly asked the caravan guards who went to explore the way.

"Are you sure there are only five riders?" The merchant leader asked anxiously.

The caravan guard with a vicissitudes of life answered firmly: "Yes, sir, I can see very clearly that there are indeed only five riders riding mules and donkeys."

"Did they fly flags?" The caravan leader asked nervously.

"No flags, no armor." The caravan guard said truthfully.

"Strange, is it a bounty hunter? Or an outlaw?" The caravan leader lowered his head and muttered to himself.

"Whether there is danger or not, everyone pick up weapons and prepare to fight. Elke, tell the group of small vendors following us that there may be danger ahead. If you don't want to die, fight with us. If you want to run, let them leave quickly!" The caravan leader looked ahead solemnly and told the guards beside him without looking back.

"Understood."

After a guard nodded in response, he immediately walked quickly to the crowd of cars and shouted loudly: "Dear friends, there may be danger ahead. If you don't want to die, pick up weapons and fight with us! If you want to run away, it's not too late, but I want to remind you that running away may not necessarily keep you alive..."

After listening to the guard's words, everyone became nervous, and some brave people expressed their willingness to fight with the guards.

The rest of the people lowered their heads and kept silent. They didn't dare to run away, nor did they dare to refuse. They could only express their ideas in this way.

Not long after, smoke and dust filled the trade road. Five riders wearing worn fur coats and holding short spears came galloping on their horses and slowly stopped a few dozen meters away from the chariot formation.

These five riders were thin, bearded, fierce-looking, and exuded an unsettling aura.

Their appearance caused a commotion in the chariot formation, and people began to whisper, speculating about the origins of these riders.

The guards in the chariot formation immediately tightened their weapons, and those bold farmers and merchants also stood with the guards with pitchforks, swallowing their saliva with sweat on their heads.

"We are merchants going to Rhine Town. Who are you?" The leader of the caravan shouted loudly at the five fierce-looking riders.

However, there was no response from the riders. After the two sides confronted each other for a while, a rider whispered a few words to his companion beside him, and the rider immediately turned around and ran away.

The remaining four riders rode their mounts slowly around, observing the situation of the caravan.

"What are they going to do?" The caravan leader looked at the riders' actions and asked the guard beside him in a low voice.

After taking a look, the guard guessed, "Sir, this group of people should be observing our number and defense."

After hearing the guard's explanation, the caravan leader's forehead began to sweat and stammered, "There are only five of them. Do they dare to attack us?"

The guard hesitated for a moment. He was also very surprised. There were only five riders on the other side. How could they be so brave?

However, he still carefully reminded the caravan leader: "Sir, they seem to have bad intentions..."

The caravan leader frowned. He also felt that something was wrong, but decided to observe it first. Although this was not the first time they encountered such a situation, they could not easily draw conclusions.If there is a misunderstanding, it will be a big trouble.

However, before the guards and the caravan leader figured out the thoughts of these riders, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, and a large cloud of dust rose up. Obviously, more people and horses were approaching.

Several more riders came from a distance, followed by thirty young men in ragged clothes holding knives, axes and spears.

These people looked like ordinary farmers or herdsmen, but the breath they exuded made people feel uneasy.

Especially the leading rider, riding a panting hunting horse, wearing iron-studded leather armor, a semi-circular bowl helmet, holding a two-handed spear in his hand, and his eyes were cold.

The riders beside him also had fierce eyes and a fierce look. They were not easy to mess with at first glance.

With the arrival of these people, the caravan leader and the guard looked at each other and saw each other's thoughts from each other's eyes.

"It's confirmed that this group of people are lawless!" The guard whispered.

The caravan leader nodded in agreement. He knew he had to make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be unbearable.

But before the caravan leader could make a decision, the leading rider had already come riding, and the four riders who had been observing the car formation earlier also came to the side of the leading rider.

"Paul, these people are not easy to deal with."

A rider looked at the nervous people in the car formation and whispered.

Paul frowned, looked at the car formation, and whispered: "Batu, are you afraid?"

Hearing this, the rider's face suddenly showed anger. He lowered his voice and said in a muffled voice: "I am afraid? When I was on the mainland, I dared to fight the regular army of the empire. I would be afraid of them!!"

After speaking, Batu still said with some worry: "The leader took Nott and others back to Rhine Town. Now there are only us in the manor. If there is a loss, it will be difficult to replenish it for a while."

Another rider continued: "Yes, Paul, although the leader asked us to grab as much property as possible, there are no fewer people on the opposite side than us, and the people we gathered behind may not dare to fight."

Paul looked back at the young and strong men he brought behind him. Although these young and strong men looked ferocious, they still showed some fear in their eyes. Obviously, they were afraid of a real fight.

A bunch of trash!

Paul cursed in his heart, and then after thinking for a while, he made a decision in his heart.
