Scene 38 The Jazz, the Young Man and the Hunter

readx(); Act 38 Jazz, Young Man and Hunter (First update)

…

Along the Gris River, the sky was getting brighter.

In the forest, Fern and Tiger Bird hid under the bushes together, watching without saying a word the aristocratic army with a forest of banners noisily passing through the road in the forest - this is not surprising, strict discipline is A standard that even the regular army of the kingdom cannot meet.

Of course mercenaries are much better, at least they still have the consciousness of an ambusher. About hundreds of mercenaries are holding their breath and hiding along the forest on the bank of the Gris River, just waiting for the last noble soldier to enter the preset battlefield.

Hundreds of crossbows, long and short bows are about to target the prey that is entering their range.

"Although these guys don't seem to have much fighting ability," Hu Que looked outside the woods and couldn't help but said, "But the scouts are still quite experienced, they just lack a little practical experience."

The grand leader of the Firelands Chapter glanced at the guy next to him. He knew that this man had no name, only a nickname.

Tiger bird, he had never heard the name of this bird before——

"You only owe a little practical experience? Only you dare to say this." But Fern couldn't help but think so.

As the former Karasu Cavalry Captain, Fern was much more knowledgeable than the average person. He knew very well that Sir Mintai's scouts were top-notch even among the regular army, but this man and the small group of mercenaries he led It's really awesome.

He saw with his own eyes how those Lubis mercenaries went up to kill a group of noble scout cavalry. They got up and leaped, mounted their horses to kill people, and seized the horses and threw their bodies in one go. Even the corpses of those noble cavalry were still lying in the forest, leaving only The body temperature gradually became cold - it was just that the dead man could not stand up and accuse the mercenary captain.

The former cavalry captain couldn't help but feel a little scared - that level of courage and tacit cooperation made him wonder whether these guys were really mercenaries?

And such a guy is just a servant of the young lord, and I am afraid he is not even a knight. Of course Fern couldn't guess who Brando was, but that didn't prevent him from making a judgment - as an experienced cavalry captain, he was indeed more observant of some details than most people.

On the day he took Grudin from Brando, he had already realized the extraordinaryness of this young man before Juta and Kerencia; at the same time, he was also the first person to doubt Brando's intentions - like There is really no need for a nobleman like Brando to come to such a remote place, right?

So what is his purpose?

Although Fern looks like a careless guy, he has actually been keenly aware of Brando's well-hidden ambition, which is why he fell into this camp in the first place.

After he left Karasu's cavalry team, he worked tirelessly to create this mercenary group. Of course, he was not an ordinary person. Fern has long been looking for a person who can be loyal to him among the nobles, but most of the time, the people he respects look down on him, and most of the people who look up to him are despised people like Grudin. .

Until Brando put this opportunity in front of him.

The two hit it off immediately.

While Fern was lost in his own thoughts, the noble army had slowly entered the forest——

Sir Minty, after crossing the river Gris,

Slowed down the speed. Although it seems that the mob did not stay, he is a cautious person by nature - there is nothing wrong with being cautious.

But this kind of caution is not due to a natural acumen for war and military affairs, but purely a cautious character.

Therefore, when his youngest son caught up from behind, Sir Mintai still insisted on letting his scattered troops of mercenaries and private soldiers advance along the road in the riverside forest. The noise along the way made him a little upset——

However, there is no point in restraining him. At most, he can only control it for a while.

However, he looked at the knights around him and felt somewhat satisfied - these knights were all his old subordinates, all truly experienced warriors. Even though they were covered in armor, their calm eyes were always observing the forest around them. ——They always hold their swords and maintain the necessary vigilance.

Real knights are professional soldiers who have practiced war skills for a long time, so they are naturally different from others. Even their attendants, the noble soldiers who followed the huge dragon beast mounts and wore various banners, looked better trained than the mercenaries.

But that's just what it looks like.

The team was entering the narrow road between the forests. Our Lord Sir frowned instinctively, but while he was thinking about whether he would encounter any trouble next, there was the sound of horse hooves behind him.

There were only his second son's men at the rear of the team - those were the men he had personally assigned to the other side. There were fifty men in total. He wanted to give this guy enough trouble for a while. However, he did not expect that the other party would organize these people into submission, which was beyond his expectation.

"What new tricks did that kid come up with?" With this thought in mind, Sir Mintai turned around, and sure enough he saw that familiar face that made his eyes twitch, leading several people on horseback to chase after him.

Samuel really loved and hated this son.

After Caglis approached the group, he tightened the reins and asked the horse to slow down. The young man stood upright on the horse in the most standard knight posture, like a straight sharp knife. He pushed the messy long hair on his forehead to one side and let out a breath.

"Father."

"What's wrong with you?"

The visitor smiled with the characteristic shyness of a young man and asked, "Father, how long has it been since the scout came back?"

Sir Mintai was startled before he realized this problem. However, he was obviously unwilling to admit this, and asked somewhat unhappily: "Why are you asking this? It's just a little late - they may have gone too far. You know these young men under me always have too much energy." ——”

Caglis raised his head and glanced into the forest.

"Not necessarily." He said lightly.

"This bastard," Sir Mintai cursed in his mind: "What on earth do you want to say?"

Caglis couldn't help but smile and stared at his father reading with a strange expression: "Others say Sir Sir is a cautious person, but in fact he is not always like that -" He hadn't finished yet. Suddenly, he noticed that Sir Mintai's face was getting darker and darker. The young man secretly said something bad and quickly changed his words: "But father, you are too courageous. You clearly found out that there was something wrong with the scout, but you still dare to let the army continue to enter the forest? "

Even though he said that, in fact he didn't look that worried. After all, the opponent is nothing more than a mob, and no matter how powerful the mob is, it is nothing more than a mob.

The young man has a high self-esteem, and naturally he will not take Brando's mercenaries seriously.

Of course, if he knew what kind of danger was hidden in the forest not far away at this moment, I'm afraid he wouldn't think so——

"When did it become your turn for me, an old man, to teach you a lesson?" Sir Mintai interrupted him angrily: "When I fought, your son had not yet been born."

"Yes, father, please let the army stop first."

Jazz looked around and became a little worried. But at least he found a step, he raised his hand, and the herald immediately conveyed his order.

After a brief commotion, the procession stopped.

But it was better not to stop. As soon as he stopped, Caglis immediately discovered the problem before the experienced knights present. He raised his head and looked into the forest, his brows suddenly furrowed deeply.

In fact, it wasn't just him. After the young man smelled something was wrong, there were already knights present who also felt abnormal.

When the noisy soldiers stopped, they discovered——

The forest is too quiet.

…

Fern also frowned, and the nobleman stopped a little outside the ambush circle. As long as he had a little more time, he could launch an attack first, but this matter hung up so suddenly, neither up nor down.

He took a breath and stared at every detail outside the forest. He thought about it and decided to wait a little longer. During Karasu's cavalry career, the thing Fern learned the most was that he had to be calm and calm on the battlefield, which would often allow him to see the situation clearly and win the final victory.

But this time he was wrong.

Huque was also staring in that direction, and he had already smelled something unusual in the air. As soon as the rider entered the group, the noble army stopped. This was not normal. He first doubted whether the other party had discovered these people.

But regardless of whether he was aware of it or not, the mercenary captain knew that he had to make a judgment.

The cavemen had already lurked a hundred meters away from the noble soldiers. For the first time, they were equipped with the four-armed crossbows given to them by humans. This was something Tajib had always wanted to get, but Grudin was not stupid yet. To the point where these military supplies are also delivered to potential enemies.

Of course, when they join Brando's group, that's another matter.

The distance of one hundred meters is a bit far for humans. Even a black iron-level warrior would probably take several seconds to cross this distance, let alone in a forest.

But enough about the cavemen.

At that moment Huque made up his mind.

"Send the signal—" he ordered in a deep voice.

"Wait a minute," Fern said a little confused: "This distance is too far, they haven't entered our ambush yet."

"We have absolute advantages in numbers and strength, and the ambush is just the icing on the cake," Huque replied decisively: "But if we wait for the other party to react, the situation will be beyond our control."

"The Lord wants to capture the Sir. This is the focus of this battle." The mercenary captain continued.

Fern was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

indeed so.
