Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

Seeing the three riders approaching slowly, the people in the caravan showed an uneasy look on their faces, and the caravan leader standing in the front was even more nervous, constantly wiping the sweat on his forehead with his hands, his face was frighteningly pale.

However, the three riders did not continue to move forward, but stopped when they were still more than ten meters away from the caravan.

Paul looked at the guards holding short bows in the caravan, and then said loudly: "This is our territory. No matter where you go, you must leave money to buy your way! Otherwise... hum!"

After saying this, the other two riders behind Paul also sneered.

Then, Batu and Ashilan led the rest of the riders and the young men to the caravan, with fierce looks on their faces.

"Master..." The guard on the side looked at the caravan leader who kept wiping his sweat and asked softly.

The guards knew that it was not wise to clash with the riders who were obviously ill-intentioned, but they had received money and were responsible for protecting the safety of the caravan.

Therefore, the only thing they could do now was to wait for the caravan leader to make a decision. If the leader was willing to give up some money and property to let these criminals leave, then they would not have to risk fighting with them.

But if the caravan leader refused to compromise, then they would have no choice but to fight against these criminals.

"This... leader, how much toll do you need?" The caravan leader obviously did not want to clash with Paul and his team.

Paul squinted his eyes and looked at the goods on the carriage with sharp eyes, as if estimating their value. After a while, he suddenly said, "50 silver deer!" There was a hint of unquestionable in his voice.

After that, he squinted his eyes and stared at the caravan leader in the car formation quietly, waiting for his response.

"50 silver deer!!!"

When the caravan leader heard this number, he was shocked. He stared at Paul with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

But soon, a tangled expression appeared on his face. 50 silver deer was not a small amount, but he was worried that a refusal would cause a conflict.

So he turned his head and looked around at the guards on both sides, trying to get some support or suggestions from their eyes.

However, the guards were holding weapons and staring at Paul and others at this moment, and no one could give him any advice for a while.

In the end, the caravan leader gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Okay, I am willing to pay 50 silver deer."

Although the number of the other side is not as large as his side, once a battle occurs, there will inevitably be casualties.

Moreover, if the goods are damaged in the battle, then he will suffer huge losses.

Especially the two carriages full of silk and spices, there must be no mistakes.

If he was damaged in the battle, he would really cry to death, so he would rather spend money to buy peace than take the risk of fighting with the other side.

Anyway, when he arrived at Rhine Town, he could slightly increase the price of the goods and let the residents of Rhine Town share his losses.

After hearing the reply from the caravan leader, Paul put away his cold eyes and smiled: "Very good, as long as you are willing to pay, we don't want to stain your blood on our hands."

As a money bag was thrown out, a bandit came forward, picked up the money bag on the ground with a short spear in his hand, opened it and looked at it, and nodded to Paul.

Paul understood and immediately waved his hand to signal the bandits and the young men holding various weapons to make way. Then he smiled and said loudly to the caravan leader: "I hope you can reach where you want to go safely."

After that, he turned around with the money bag and left here with everyone.

Until the figures of Paul and others completely disappeared, the leader of the caravan breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the ground, and cursed angrily: "Didn't they say that the bandits in Rhine Town were wiped out? Where did these bandits come from!!!"

Looking at the actions of the caravan leader, the guards were helpless. After looking at each other, two guards stepped forward and helped him up.

"These people should have nothing to do with the bandits." A guard said.

"Yes, I heard that the bandits will not let the merchants go just because they paid the toll." Another guard echoed.

The caravan leader snorted twice in dissatisfaction, and the anger in his heart still did not subside. Although he also understood this truth, the loss of 50 silver deer still made him feel extremely distressed.

He turned around and shouted angrily to the group of cowards in the car formation who lowered their heads like quails: "If it weren't for me this time, you would all die here! EveryoneYou all have to give me 20 copper sheep, or get out of my team!"

Hearing this, the small vendors and farmers who had been standing side by side with the guards showed a look of relief on their faces.

They were glad that they had made the right choice, and at the same time they were full of contempt for those who did not dare to take up arms to resist.

And those people who bowed their heads also knew that they were not right. Facing the roar of the caravan leader, they could only nod timidly to express their agreement.

They took out their few savings from their pockets and handed them to the guard who was responsible for collecting money and holding the wooden box.

The guard handed the wooden box in his hand to the caravan leader. After the caravan leader took it and carefully counted the number, his expression eased a little.

He carefully put the copper sheep into his pocket, and then lowered his voice to one of the horse guards and ordered: "Go to the front to explore the situation and make sure that the riders have indeed left. "

The horse guard took the order and left. After he came back to report that Paul and others had gone far away, the caravan leader ordered the guards to dismantle the chariots, restore the original formation, and continue to move towards Rhine Town.

The small vendors, craftsmen, farmers and girls also hurriedly packed up their belongings and followed the caravan.

And those who had shown courage before won the recognition of the caravan leader and guards with their heroic behavior.

They were specially allowed to walk in the middle of the caravan, forming a sharp contrast with the cowards who fell behind.

The group formed a long team again, and under the sunlight, they slowly walked towards the direction of Rhine Town.
