The infinite journey of knights

Chapter 183

"Did that bitch Julie send you here to kill me?"

The new leader of the Birch Bandits had just met Yatim, and his words were quite wrong.

He looked at Yatim in front of him, with a distorted expression on his face: "I knew you wouldn't let me go!"

"After killing the leader, you want to kill me together!"

His face was ferocious, and he kept struggling there.

Yatimu was on the side, and couldn't help but be taken aback.

Although the other party didn't say much, the amount of information revealed in the words was huge.

The former leader was killed for the purpose of silence?
Yatimu remained calm, just smiled and looked at the strong man in front of him, and said softly: "Sir, we may have misunderstood."

"But I'm somewhat interested in what you said before."

He rode his horse forward, leaned in front of the other party, and looked at the other party with a smile: "And I trouble you to look carefully."

"You really don't remember me?"

Listening to Yatimu's words, the other party was silent at first, already realizing that the situation was wrong.

The other party didn't seem to be the group he expected.

He subconsciously looked at Yatimu's face, looked carefully, and then was suddenly startled, and the expression on his face began to twitch: "It's you!"

"very good."

Yatimu noticed the other party's reaction: "It seems that the first gentleman knows me."

"That's a lot easier."

"Now, I hope your Excellency can cooperate, so that I can save myself from suffering, okay?"

He looked at the other party, his words were quite slight, but the implied threat was clearly audible.

The middle-aged man couldn't help being silent, and he spoke after a while: "What do you want to know?"

"That's probably a lot."

Yatimu thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let's start with your leader."

"How did the previous leader die, you should know this."

"Of course I know."

The man nodded, and after a little hesitation, he still spoke.

It is often said that those who know the current affairs are the best, and this is very suitable for this group of robbers.

Normal people may need some torture to actively cooperate, but this is not the case when facing this group of robbers.

Because they know what will happen if they don't cooperate.

Those methods of torture are enough to torture even the most tenacious tough guy to speak obediently, absolutely not daring to hide anything.

Instead of being beaten more, it is better to cooperate honestly.

If you are lucky, there may be a way out.

Through the leader of the bandit group in front of him, Yatimu also has a clearer and more detailed understanding of some internal conditions of the birch bandit group.

The former leader of the birch bandits was indeed dead, but he did not die normally, but was killed by someone.

Why they were killed, it starts with the source of the Birch Bandits.

The Birch Bandit Group itself is a black glove established by some nobles in order to obtain extra income.

In other words, the former leader himself was a subordinate of other nobles, and he did some inconvenient things for those nobles.

This situation lasted for a long time.

It wasn't until some time ago that the leader of the Birch Bandit Group gradually became rebellious.

This is actually quite normal.

After all, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away. If it takes a long time, there will always be some embarrassment.

But obviously, this has violated the rules in those people's minds.

So after the last mission was over, that group of people eliminated the former leader of the Birch Bandit Group, and then elected the current leader to power.

The chaos within the Birch Bandit Group came from this.

Then Yatimu also bumped into him at this moment.

"You just said the last mission."

Yatimu looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with great interest: "The last mission you mentioned is not the one that intercepted and killed me, right?"

"Yes."

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, and finally nodded slowly, reluctantly admitting this.

He knew that if he did not admit it, he would not be able to pass this level anyway.

Judging from the situation in front of him, it can be seen that Yadimu in front of him is completely ruthless.

Facing this kind of character, if you don't obey the other party's wishes, God knows what will happen.

"That time we received a mission, let us intercept and kill the caravan you were in, and catch a person there."

"Arrests?"

Yatimu quickly realized something: "Catch who?"

The ultimate goal of the last interception was to catch people.

Obviously, the target to be caught is not the predecessor of Yatimu's body, but someone else.

And that's very problematic.

In that caravan, besides Yadimu, who is the most special and distinguished?
Yatim suddenly had an answer in his heart.

"Gulga."

Under Yatimu's gaze, the man finally said a name.

There was a strong helplessness on his face: "I don't know much, I only know that this should be a woman."

The smile on Yatim's face gradually disappeared.

Gulijia, this is a very unfamiliar name to others, but it is very familiar to Yatimu.

Strictly speaking, this should be the elder sister of the predecessor, and also the protagonist of their journey.

According to the memories left over from their predecessors, the main purpose of their going out was to send their elder sister away from this area to study in a distant place.

As a result, when they arrived near the city of Lima, they were intercepted and killed.

The predecessor of Yatimu's body was killed on the spot, while the elder sister of the predecessor disappeared, and it is unknown where she went.

This is obviously not normal.

Judging from the current situation, even the birch robbers attacked them because of their predecessor's sister.

Therefore, the predecessor of the relationship is an unlucky one. He obviously didn't do anything, but he was involved in it.

Yatimu couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"That's all I know."

In front of him, the voice of the big man sounded.

His expression looked a little disturbed, and he just stood there looking at Yatimu: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"temporarily unavailable."

Yatimu nodded, and then asked subconsciously: "However, are you sure which ones are involved?"

In addition to the reasons for the attack, Yatimu also asked the supporters behind the attack.

These talents are the main ones.

Only by knowing these people, Yatimu can have some leeway whether it is revenge or coming to do other things in the future.

But judging from the factions that have been heard so far, it seems that the power of each of them is not weak.

"I do not know."

The man said nervously: "I just became the leader recently, and I don't know many things before."

"There may be others, but I don't know."

"Is that so?"

Yatimu nodded: "Okay, go down and rest."

"rest assured."

He glanced at the other party, and then said: "Seeing that with your cooperation, I won't kill you."

"Stay with me from now on, okay?"

He looked at each other and said so softly.

"Yes Yes."

The man nodded quickly, feeling a little grateful in his heart.

For him, as long as one life can be left behind, it is earned.

As for anything else, he didn't care.

Anyway, they are all doing things for people, and there is not much difference.

The reason why Yatimu didn't kill him was also to hope that he could play a role in the future.

Although the other party has explained most of the things, there must be quite a few details that have not been revealed.

If you kill it now, if you can use the other party in the future, then no one will use it.

So Yatimu spared his life.

The man was held down by the servants on the side, and after a while, Sai Luo walked over with a face full of excitement.

"A bumper harvest."

He looked at Yatim and reported with a smile: "There are quite a lot of things here."

After this period of hard work, Yatim's gains and losses this time have also been cleared up.

Losses are negligible.

During the attack, the opponent did not organize any decent resistance at all, so that the whole process was quite smooth.

In the entire bandit group, a full 200 people were captured.

It's just that these captives are making a lot of money.

Not to mention other possessions.

This is the base camp of the Birch Bandit Group, and there are many treasures accumulated in the past.

There are thousands of gold coins alone, and other goods are piled up like mountains.

These should be the caravan goods that the robber group robbed before.

When the robber group robbed, those gold coins and the like naturally needed to be spent, but those goods had to be sold in order to obtain the maximum benefit.

So once the sales are slow, these things will accumulate.

Yatimu went to see it himself.

The goods of this group of robbers included furs, jewels, and a lot of food.

It looks like they robbed more than one caravan.

Yatimu looked at it casually, and then suddenly felt something was wrong.

Why does he feel that these things are inexplicably familiar?

Is it
He stood there thinking for a moment, and then he affirmed his thoughts.

That's right, the goods piled up in front of us are nothing but what the bandit group robbed from Yatimu and his party before.

This is a good guy.

The robber group robbed the caravan, and then Yatimu led people to snatch the things back.

This is also a cycle.

"Pieces and pieces, there are always things worth [-] to [-] gold coins."

Yatimu walked aside, wandered around casually, and then made such a judgment.

The value of these things is very good. If those furs and jewelry can be sold through channels, the price can double again.

And this channel, the Sharman gang happens to have it too.

In the city of Lima, after the Shaman Gang killed the Brotherhood, they annexed most of the Brotherhood's channels and industries.

Those trade channels are also one of them.

"I didn't expect the harvest to be quite big."

Looking at the statistics of the harvest in front of him, even Yatimu couldn't help but be surprised.

At this moment, he even wondered if he should do it again later.

If he can get such a big harvest every time, then it seems that he doesn't need to do anything else.

Just focus on looting.

Gretel pierced Yatimu's thoughts in time.

"The Birch Bandits are merely an exception."

Seemingly seeing Yatimu's thoughts, he explained: "Lima City is the center of the nearby area, and a large number of caravans come here every once in a while."

"Relying on these caravans, the nearby bandit groups are always rich, but not many are as wealthy as the bandit group in front of us."

He explained the situation to Yatimu in detail.

To put it simply, there were indeed quite a few bandit groups nearby, but those as wealthy as the Birch Bandit Group were hard to find.

Most bandit groups are struggling to get enough food and clothing, and their members often don't even have enough food.

This is reality.

Moreover, those wealthy bandits are often not very easy to deal with.

In fact, even the birch robbers themselves are not so easy to deal with.

If it weren't for the infighting within the bandit group, the inexplicable death of the former leader, and internal disputes, judging from the basic situation of the birch bandit group, it would be quite difficult to take them down.

Among other things, Huamu Village at the foot of the mountain is not so easy for ordinary people to get there.

"I see."

Yatimu naturally understood Gretel's suggestion.

So he smiled, and then said, "But it doesn't really matter."

Even if the other bandit groups didn't gain much, they still had some leftovers.

These things don't need too many, just enough to give rewards to the soldiers.

Yatim's way of thinking is obviously different from that of Gretel.

In Gretel's view, most bandit groups are difficult to take down, and the rewards are often not too great. Instead of trying to attack them, it is better to maintain a good relationship with them, which can save a lot of trouble.

But Yatim obviously didn't see it that way.

Destroying those bandit groups may not gain much in property, but it can gain a good reputation.

This is an invisible asset.

At the same time, constantly fighting with the bandits can also have the effect of training soldiers accordingly.

This is the most important thing for Yatimu.

It doesn't matter in other aspects, but the army under him, this is the most important thing.

For Yatimu, whose strength has not yet fully recovered at this moment, the team he has under his control is his strongest strength.

That being the case, it is natural to find a way to continuously strengthen it.

Although the usual training is hard enough, only the tempering of actual combat can make them more elite soldiers.

"Yes, I understand."

Listening to Yatim's words, Gretel nodded again and again, and only then did he understand what Yatim meant.

"Let's go."

Yatimu stood up and looked at the scene ahead: "This place is not bad, it would be a pity if it is so deserted."

"Send some people over to station later, and repair this place, maybe it can be used in the future."

"Yes."

Sai Luo on the side kept nodding.

It's his job.

After explaining all kinds of things, Yadimu led most of the people and just went down the mountain.

The next day, Yatim came to the door in person and found Clay.

"Which territory do you want?"

Hearing the purpose of Yatimu's visit, Clay showed surprise on his face.
