Chapter 139 Ignite the Fuse

"go Go!"

Earl Rhys waved his hand, telling the beautiful little girl in gilt breastplate to leave the tent quickly, so as not to delay her drinking.

Not long after, the five young men rode away from the barracks in Reeseland and headed north.

They are all in high spirits, the helmets and breastplates carefully crafted by skilled craftsmen and the cloaks embroidered with gold thread behind them reflect the golden light in the late spring sun, and the first-class war horses worth hundreds of gold are galloping happily under their crotches.

In the farmland by the roadside, the peasant women who were weeding just looked up, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and bent down to continue working.

Running in the front was a young female knight, turning her head from time to time, shouting to her companions in a clear and melodious voice, "Hurry up!"

Bell Burke is the granddaughter of the Chief Minister of the Heraldry Academy. She is 17 years old and has many suitors in Cologne.

This time, King William asked the families to choose the future pillars of the country to accompany the prince to be gilded. She went on a hunger strike for three days during the meal before getting her grandfather to agree to come with her.

She was a restless girl, and after hearing a few words from someone when she came to Reesland's barracks, she thought that she would really go to Wessenland for reconnaissance the day before the war started.

These future pillars of the country will go out to reconnaissance every day after they come to the military camp of Ansbach, anyway, it is recorded in the documents, as for the reconnaissance of the taverns and restaurants in the city, or lurking in the bathing flower building for three to five days. people know.

So Earl Rhys thought that she was just tired of staying in the stinky military camp, and she was looking for an excuse to go out for a run to relax, or that girls like to be clean and go to the city to take a bath, so he agreed without thinking.

So, the heroic female knight set off with a team of several suitors, aiming to lead the city of Heim by Wessen.

Near noon, they crossed the boundary marker between the territories and came to Wessen Territory. No one noticed that a conspicuous tree fell down on the top of the mountain.

There is a small river not far ahead, and the upper reaches is a large swamp. Bell Burke stopped in front of the bridge, pointed at the bridge with a whip and said, "Quick, measure the length and width of the bridge."

Immediately behind her, some activists jumped off their horses and paced up and down the bridge to measure them decently.

When the positive molecular weight was over and he walked up to Belle Burke, who was about to offer his courtesies, Belle Burke asked him, "Well, did you hear the bell?"

Others listened attentively, and there was indeed a rapid metal knocking sound faintly coming from a distance.

"Go!" Bell Burke ignored the partner who reported the bridge data, "Let's go and see what's going on!"

After finishing speaking, she rode her horse and ran forward, leaving a person standing there stupidly.

There are villages on both sides of the road not far ahead. Outside the village, a circle of thorns is planted to surround the field. It is as tall as a person, and only the gate leading to the main road is left.

Bell Burke stopped his horse by the wall of thorns, and stood on his back to look in.

"Be careful!" Someone rode to the side immediately, "Be careful not to fall!"

Bell Burke ignored him, his delicate brows were slightly frowned, wondering why those farmers kept running to the village.

Someone stood on the horse like her, thought for a while, and came up with an idea: "Let's burn these thorns, and let that village surrender. This is the first military achievement!"

"Okay!" Bell Burke exclaimed excitedly at once.

She thought of her first military achievement, and became the focus of everyone's attention in the salon after returning. Everyone was around to praise and flatter her. It was such a huge temptation that she didn't think about why Earl Rhys didn't send troops today.

It's just that she said a little depressed: "But we didn't bring a torch."

The person who proposed had a smug smile on his face. Among the five people, he was the only one who was a fire magician. Naturally, he proposed setting fire to show off in front of the goddess he had been chasing.

But before Bell Burke could answer, another competitor immediately made trouble: "This village is too small, let's change to a bigger one."

Bell Burke thought about it too. The village in front of him was much smaller than his own, so he decided to find a bigger village.

The person who suggested first was very angry. Before leaving, he went to the Wall of Thorns and threw a few ordinary fireballs to vent his anger. It didn't take long for the white smoke column to go straight into the sky.

A group of people rushed to find a bigger village, and Bell Burke was not satisfied. He just burned the thorn wall to scare the villagers.

Before he had gone far, Bell Burke noticed a donkey cart overturned on the side of the mountain road in the distance ahead, and there were several people beside the cart.

Liher, who was dressed as a peasant woman but carried a bow and arrow, scolded Hozenploz angrily: "I also said that I am a good driver. Look at you. Is there anyone who drives like this?"

Horzenploz was very helpless. A businessman from Heim City ordered a carload of rosin from the village. He delivered the goods to the door today, and took Liher and a few village girls to the city to buy things along the way.

Unexpectedly, the nearby village rang the alarm bell, and was about to tell Ami the donkey to run faster, so he whipped it, but the donkey became stubborn and took the cart into a ditch.

"Okay, okay." He said, "Unload the cargo first, and pull the car up."

At this moment, there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance, and five knights in bright armor stopped on the road.

"Liher," Hozenploz said in a deep voice, "you take them up the mountain, and I will hold them back."

Wessenland is not such a rich knight, don't think about it, it must be an enemy.

At this time, a village girl said anxiously, "You should run together too."

Liher calmly said to the other village girls: "Come with me immediately, he can run away by himself."

She then said to Hozenploz: "When we run far away, you will run away yourself."

The world is not peaceful recently, and they all brought weapons with them when they traveled far away, just in case, but they didn't expect it to be useful.

Hozenploz took out his folding rifle and a dagger from under the seat of the donkey cart, loaded the bullets and bayonet.

Liher doesn't like guns very much, but still likes bows and arrows.

On the other side, Bell Burke shouted excitedly: "Quick, take prisoners!"

Immediately, someone rushed out first, pulled out his saber halfway, and waved it twice. A layer of flames attached to the knife, which looked heroic.

Hozenploz calmly calculated the speed and distance of the horse, and when he saw the excitement on the rider's face, he suddenly raised his gun and fired.

The lead bullet was shot from the right side of the horse's chest, breaking the arm bone, and the horse immediately turned forward and fell to the field after losing support.

The knight on horseback was thrown out unexpectedly, rolled a few times on the ground, and stopped just in front of Hozenploz.

Hozenploz drew the bayonet from the neck of the blood-spitting man, did not have time to wipe the blood off the knife, and loaded the bullet amidst the screams and roars in the distance.

At this time, three people rushed over on horseback, and Hozenploz fired again. This shot missed the horse, but hit the right arm of the man on the far left, and the saber in his hand fell.

Obviously, this man had never suffered such a serious injury, so he screamed while covering the bleeding place, and let the horse run forward with him.

The attention of the other two people was on Hozenploz in front, and the screams distracted them, so they didn't notice a few arrows shot from the forest beside them.

Herbs that paralyze people and animals instantly are hard to find, but the prescriptions for increasing pain perception are much simpler, and the horses will knock people to the ground under the pain.

Hozenploz rushed over immediately, avoiding the crazy horse, and took advantage of the opportunity of two people falling to the ground to kill another person. When he was about to kill the third person, this person reached out and held the barrel of the gun to prevent the bayonet from falling. into his own neck.

The other party has eaten delicious food since he was a child, and his strength is much greater than that of Huozhen Puluoz, but the initiative is in the hands of Huozhen Puluoz. Kick between the opponent's legs.

There was a sound of a heavy object falling to the ground in the distance, and Liher, who had returned, shot an arrow into the gap between the helmet and the breastplate at the back of the neck of the man with the severed hand.

Bell Burke was trembling with fright at the scene in front of him, and his mind went blank. He only thought of turning around and running away when he saw the man on the opposite side raising that strange weapon.

The gunshot rang out, and Bell Burke staggered and fell off his horse.

"It's gone for the time being." Liher walked out of the mountain.

Huozhenpouloz hurriedly said to her: "Why are you back, run quickly, these are just scouts, and the big troops behind will not be able to run away."

Liher said: "The goods are no longer needed, push the car up quickly, and report to Heim City immediately."

Hozenplousz and the others didn't know that when Bell Burke and the others first entered Wessen Territory, information was passed to Frederick layer by layer from the moment the first message tree was brought down on the top of the mountain.
