That's very badass

Chapter 66 The Crazy Robber

"My lord, it seems that there are cavalry coming!"

A panicked robber walked over in a scrambling manner.

Seeing this worthless look, he gave him a slap and said at the same time: "You worthless thing, have you seen which family's flag it is? Maybe I still know the master."

The villagers who had been agitated at first became quiet again after hearing this sentence, but their hearts were even more desperate.

The robber looked at the boss in front of him with an unbelievable look. In his eyes, the boss was already frightened crazy.

This made his already desperate mood even more desperate. He was about to get up and run away, away from this lunatic!
The leader, who had expected his reaction long ago, just grabbed him with one hand, because his legs were trembling with fear now, and asked, "How many of them are there?"

Seeing the robbers who couldn't break free, with a look of despair on their faces, he replied honestly: "I can't see clearly, but there are at least dozens of people, or even more."

Seeing the leader who had no hope of escape, a crazy idea came up in his heart, and at the same time, he told the robber this idea, and asked him to tell everyone else that this was their only chance of survival.

Although he has a riding horse, he is not willing to give up all his subordinates, otherwise he will have nothing, which is not allowed by him.

Yes, it all seemed crazy to him, and his leader was going to pretend to be a nobleman.What's even crazier is that he also intends to deceive the incoming cavalry.

But all of this is as the leader said, on this plain, they cannot escape the pursuit of the cavalry.Only in this way can they save their own lives.

As for threatening the nobles with the lives of the common people, they, who are well aware of the temper of the nobles, know that this is completely delusional.

No noble would care about the life and death of commoners, and if they cared, there wouldn't be so many hungry bandits.Not to mention pulling these serfs into the battlefield as cannon fodder.

The robbers who heard the sound quickly gathered together, as if they could escape unharmed.

The robber whispered to them the leader's crazy idea, and knowing that they had no better way, they had no choice but to do so.

They soon began calling on the villagers to put out the fire, and no nobleman would burn down another's village if it weren't for hostility.

As 'nobles' they couldn't do this, and they even sent some people to help put out the fire.

Fox, who realized that the opportunity had come, took advantage of the chaotic situation of putting out the fire and sneaked out of the village.

However, all this also made their crazy hearts feel a little excited.

For the first time, they will be soldiers of a noble, and they will have an equal dialogue with another noble.

This made them puff up their chests unconsciously.

Roland and the others, who had prepared their weapons a long time ago, walked all the way to the gate of the village, but they didn't see anyone, let alone encountered any resistance.

Did they run away when they heard the voice?
But Roland was not in a hurry to let the inside rush. Instead, he let the cavalry run around the village to make sure that there was no ambush.

At this time, Roland found Fox who ran out of the village. Roland thought it was a robber who was about to escape, so he rode up immediately.

To his surprise, this suspected robber ran towards them.

It wasn't until he got close that Fox lowered his voice and said, "My lord, I'm a civilian passing by here. There are a group of robbers inside. They call the leader 'Master', but his every move doesn't look like a nobleman. .”

Roland quietly listened to the man who called himself 'Fox'. He didn't believe him completely, because Roland was only seeing him for the first time.

"Take off the mask on your face, I will not trust a person who dare not show his true face."

Hearing this, Fox felt a little bitter, but he still took off the hood and looked up at Roland.

What surprised him was that Roland only frowned, and didn't scold him for insulting his eyes.

For the sake of caution, he did not choose to take Fox with him. If what he said was true, civilians might be hurt.

This is not what he wants to see.

He asked two soldiers to watch him, ready to go in and see the situation first.

Seeing that Roland didn't fully believe him, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing his bony arms.

This time Roland completely believed his words, because a person with this body cannot be a robber or a commoner, because he is a burden that cannot even support himself.

Roland waved his hand to let the soldiers go, and then told him not to follow him and wait for others.

Judging from the map, there are only about 50 robbers and hundreds of villagers. They are all concentrated in the center of the village, as if they were kidnapped by robbers.

Knowing the location of the enemy, Roland led the armored knights and walked slowly towards the center of the village.

As they moved forward, some people could already be seen indistinctly. Under the light of the fire, it seemed that the villagers were putting out the fire.

And the fifty or so red-marked people were also involved in putting out the fire, and only twenty or so people were facing this side, as if they were on guard for something.

Could it be that I was thinking wrong, it wasn't someone who was looting the village, but a fire?If not, then how can this harmonious scene be explained?

And what do the red dots they marked on the map mean?

At least they are our enemies, Roland thought.

With doubts and guards, Roland came to a distance of 50 meters from them, which was a relatively safe distance.

However, this is not a safe distance for the group of robbers. At first, they saw the small number of cavalry and felt that they could fight hard.

Well, now they have completely extinguished that kind of thinking.Some robbers no longer stood still, and they began to help the villagers put out the fire, as if they didn't have to face the sharpness of the cavalry anymore.

When Roland and the others walked in, under the light of fire and moonlight, the robbers found that almost all of them were wearing armor, holding a shield in their left hand and a sword in their right.

There is also a huge lance hanging beside the saddle, and the man at the head is wearing a full-body plate armor.

The horse stayed in place quietly, without any other superfluous movements.

As the leader of a deserter knew, they encountered a powerful cavalry squad, and the person at the head was probably a family knight.

Because ordinary knights can't afford so many horses. Of course, this is the limit of his imagination, because they only have so many people.

It only puzzled him that no identification marks were found on their armor, nor did they carry any banners.

The other villagers were also shocked by this scene. In their opinion, the one who can ride a horse and wear armor is the knight master.

They have never seen so many 'lord knights' in a remote place.

　Thanks for the reward of Xiaox Niu and the reward of staying away from that dragon, thank you
