Chapter 238 Annihilation
The mercenaries tried their best to move forward, although the words of the previous leader lifted their spirits for a while, and the speed of their progress accelerated a lot.
However, as time passed, this energy quickly faded away.
About half an hour later—
"Boss Sidi, we really can't move anymore!"
"Take a break!"
"Yeah, take a break!"
...
Among the mercenaries, such voices appeared one after another, and the leader of the mercenary frowned subconsciously. However, seeing those who had stopped in their tracks, or sat or limp on the ground, the mercenary leader frowned subconsciously. The leader of the soldiers can only choose to compromise - he is very clear that although he became the leader of this mercenary, it is not because of his strength, but because he has a "way out". , these mercenaries will obey themselves.
However, such obedience is not firm, and may even be shaky at certain times.
For example: when forcing some mercenaries to do something they don't want.
"Damn guys!"
Sidi who stopped walking cursed secretly in her heart.
Then, subconsciously scanned the surroundings and found that there was no movement, then took a slightly relaxed breath.
Although he did the looting of the territory, it does not mean that Sidi is so arrogant that he will ignore the local nobles and lords-Sidi himself is very clear that he is just playing a time lag, and also Only by taking advantage of this time difference can he escape smoothly.
"It took three days to reach the outskirts of the northwest side of Tire Territory, where the people sent by my uncle are. There are still about two and a half days away. If you can lose weight... no. Even if I propose, these harm The dead mercenaries will not give up their wealth—fortunately, I kept the tax official, he should be able to fool me for a day or two, and buy me more time, even if the new lord finds out , I have already entered the depths of the snowfield dense forest, what can he do to me!"
Sidi carefully calculated, thinking of her arrangement. I couldn't help but feel complacent.
"It's just a small thing, in exchange for the key to success!"
With a smile,
Sidi also sat down beside the horse in a relaxed manner, carefully took out some dry food and ate it—in order to be able to take away more wealth belonging to the Defendi leader, Sidi only brought dry food for less than three days, And for the nearly six-day journey, it is natural to need to save food and money.
However, this is much better than those greedy mercenaries.
Sidi knew very well that most of these guys only brought dry food for one or two days.
"That's good, when uncle's people will deal with these guys. It will be more convenient!"
After sneering a few times in his heart, Sidi quickly finished the dry food. Then, just close your eyes and rest.
Half an hour later, this bloated team was on the road again.
Although they wanted to rest for a while longer, the mercenaries were not stupid, they knew exactly what they had done and what would happen if they were caught up.
Therefore, even though they were physically tired and unwilling, they set out on the road again.
However, just two hours later, some guys became tired again, and then, like before, lay on the ground to rest.
"Damn it, bastards, bastards!"
And Sidi once again scolded from the bottom of her heart, these mercenaries with many problems—although through normal contact, Sidi knew that most of these mercenaries were lazy, and had alcoholism, gambling, etc. Bad habits, but never like now, Sidi hated these mercenaries.
"You guys, do you want to be caught up and hang yourself?"
Sidi had no choice but to intimidate these mercenaries with words.
"Boss Sidi, we have already reached the border of Tyre. The new lord, I'm afraid he just arrived in Defendi at this time? With the delay of the tax officer, we have enough time!"
"That's right, that tax official can speak well, and he will definitely be able to fool him!"
"Maybe, I won't even find out!"
...
Facing the answers of the mercenaries, Sidi deeply regretted telling these guys about her backhand arrangement—it was originally to give these guys more confidence, but she didn't expect it to be an excuse for the other party's laziness.
"Damn it!"
After swearing secretly again in my heart, I stopped talking in my heart.
After that, the team stopped and went.
It took another day, and finally crossed the border of Tyreland, and saw the scenery of the snowfield and dense forest.
Looking at the snow-covered forest in the distance, Sidi, who had a cold face and fear this day, finally let go of his heart. He shouted behind him: "Have you seen it? We are here! Speed up, and you will be truly safe soon." Already!"
Seeing the victory so close, even the mercenaries who were full of bad habits couldn't help but look excited and speed up.
Feeling the team's sudden acceleration, Sidi subconsciously swept over the crowd behind him——
"Finally able to get rid of these guys, it's really useless! Hey, that's?!"
Sidi evaluated these mercenaries with a down-to-earth gaze, and then, black shadows suddenly appeared in his sight, and then, there was a sound of the air being torn apart.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Arrows fell like rain, and in this bloated team, blood blossomed. The corpses struggled and fell to the ground one after another, and handfuls of white snow were raised high.
However, the next moment, it was soaked in bright red.
"Enemy attack!"
Sidi shouted in a heart-piercing voice, subconsciously pulled out the long sword at his waist, and then got behind the horse, and the surrounding mercenaries did the same.
Obviously, in this open area, only the back of the horse is considered safe.
As for the safety of the horse?
They are not knights, but mercenaries, and they don't care about that much at all.
The rain of arrows lasted for two rounds. just stopped.
These mercenaries poked their heads out from behind the horses. Looking carefully. In his sight, a team has launched a charge and is rapidly approaching——
"Yes, it's that Dean Ken!"
A mercenary who had seen Dean before saw Dean rushing to the forefront of the team at first sight.
"It's over! That guy can't even match the 'Random Killer', we are over!"
Another mercenary murmured in a low voice, and the remaining mercenaries around him also looked desperate.
Apparently, a title like 'Random Killer' is for mercenaries. It has absolute influence.
"Bastard, it's not all because of your procrastination that you will be chased!!"
Seeing the mercenaries around who were not prepared to fight at all, Sidi couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and cursed; then, he ignored the reactions of these mercenaries, and even didn't care about the money bags around him. , carrying a long sword like this. Quickly ran towards the snowy forest.
"As long as I enter the snowfield jungle, I can survive. With my uncle, even in the 'Hammer of Riot', I won't be punished too harshly!"
With Sidi thinking like this, her running speed became even faster.
However, when he was still some distance away from the snowy forest, he suddenly felt a gust of wind in the back of his head.
Subconsciously, Sidi turned her head, and what she saw was an arrow flying towards her.
He raised his long sword, trying to block it.
However, the arrow was one step ahead and passed the long sword.
Pooh!
The arrow shot straight from the left eye, and Sidi fell to the ground and twitched twice, then fell silent.
"Beautiful shot!"
Looking at the target who fell to the ground with an arrow in the face, Dean gave Chad a thumbs up.
And now the battle is over, it's easier than imagined——
When Dean rushed up with his people, these mercenaries had little resistance. After killing several mercenaries again, the remaining mercenaries all surrendered.
"A bunch of wimps!"
Siren kicked a surrendered mercenary down fiercely, took out the money bag from the opponent's arms, and spat on the opponent's face at the same time.
"Captain, eleven people have been captured!"
After putting the money bag on all the supplies including the war horses that were to be counted aside, Siren walked up to Dean and reported.
"We don't need prisoners!"
Dean said this, and then, stretched out his hand and pulled out his [Sharp Thorn of the Wind], and walked in front of the captives.
"Forgive me! My lord, please forgive me!"
"My lord, this is all Sidi's conspiracy, I know everything!"
"Yes, as long as you forgive me, I will tell you everything we know!"
The mercenaries who had obviously guessed what Dean was going to do immediately opened their mouths, begging for mercy loudly or simply wanting to negotiate terms with Dean.
Holding the long sword, Dean stood still in front of these mercenaries, his eyes scanning back and forth.
Immediately, the shouts of the mercenaries became louder and louder—they thought they still had a chance!
But, the next moment——
puff!
The sword light flashed, and a mercenary corpse was separated, followed by the second, the second...
"I don't need your begging for mercy, and I don't need everything you know—I only know that you are plundering my territory! And this can only be forgiven with your heads!"
While swinging his sword, Dean spoke.
As for the young people of the Feichalun Knights who were dazed at first, their faces became firm again when they heard Dean's extremely clear words.
"My lord, there is a group of people ahead—the number is not less than one hundred!"
When Dean cut off the head of the last mercenary, Huck, the deputy head of the scout, rushed to report.
"Huck, take ten people and escort these supplies back to the town of Tyre!"
"Siron, Chad, take the rest of you, form an arrow array for me, and stand fifty feet behind me!"
After Dean heard it, he immediately arranged it.
"Commander, what about you?"
The members of the Fei Chalun Knights looked at Dean.
"Me? Charge!"
Dean looked towards the direction of the snowfield dense forest in the distance, where layers of figures were already looming.
