Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 26 The Blade in Hand

Near noon, Ronan and the others finally arrived at the temporary camp mentioned by Belica. The camp is not big, except for two 3-meter-wide exits, there are stone pier walls about 1.5 meters high. At this time, there are two groups of caravans resting inside, and they are not large caravans. The number of guards is about the same, but the number of guards is far worse. There are more than forty people in the two teams together.

Put the turnip in the waistcoat, and then put on the plate armor with the help of two Vaegir horsemen. While wearing the plate armor, Belica walked over.

"It will take a while for the Bloodfangs to bypass the Acorn Hall. We still have time to prepare, but we can't tell those merchants now, or they will flee immediately. There should be caravans coming in a while. You should exclude the scouts to investigate first. Well, the Bloodfangs are telling these caravans when they are coming soon."

Ronan nodded, and ordered the five fastest Kujit cavalry to go out to investigate and come back as soon as they found the target.

"Aren't you afraid? Even including these caravan guards, the number of Bloodfangs is probably several times higher than ours." Belica asked Ronan.

"A group of rabble, their quality is not high, and their equipment is not sophisticated. We occupy a good location, and if we take away their advantage in horse fighting, our chances of winning are very high!"

"But their leader, 'Bloodfang' Belik, is a legendary figure after all. He has been raging for more than ten years and has not been wiped out. When the people in these caravans hear that it is him, their legs will be weak in fear."

"The song of Yangchun, those who are sympathetic must be few. Under the fame, it is actually difficult to match! How strong you are, you will know after the contest!"

Belica smiled and returned to the caravan to arrange the next matters. Ronan put on his armor and sat aside to recharge his batteries and wait for news from the cavalry. He was confident in their abilities. Several groups of caravans entered the inland camp one after another, and the originally small place immediately became crowded. Many caravan personnel and guards whispered a few words when they saw the fully armed Ronan.

When the meal time came, the caravans all started to cook and took out dry food to eat. Some people even took out their flagons and drank wine. Daisy walked up to Ronan with a piece of bread and smoked sausage, and next to Ronan, she divided half of the food in her hand and handed it to Ronan. Ronan took it unceremoniously, took off his helmet and ate it. Noticing that Daisy beside him was a little depressed, Ronan couldn't help asking:

"What's wrong? Make the pistachios in the caravan unhappy?"

Hearing Ronan teasing herself, Daisy pursed her mouth angrily and stared at Ronan, then sighed and said after a while:

"Hey, this is the first time I have left Jackdaw Town since I grew up. I have always yearned for the outside world, but I didn't expect to fight one after another before I went far. Dead people, is this the world like this?"

Ronan was silent for a while, then smiled and said:

"There are still many beautiful things in this world. It's just that you have been unlucky recently, so you haven't been able to discover them. When you are in the Hinterlands and stabilized, you will have many opportunities to experience the world."

"Then why do people keep hurting each other?"

This sentence stopped Ronan at once, and Ronan thought for a long time before saying:

"With a sharp blade in hand, kill yourself! What's wrong is not the sword in your hand, but the greedy heart. There are too many people in this world who hold power, and rules can't completely restrain them. Killing is the fastest way to be powerful, robber You can get other people's property by killing, mercenaries can get commission by killing, and lords and nobles can expand their territory and power by killing. Once you succeed, every kingdom is built with blood. "

"You told me just now that there are many beautiful things in this world? Now that you say that, isn't the reality of this world still killing?"

"Haha, the two don't interact with each other, Daisy, you will find out slowly, you are too young now!"

"Hmph, Rodritte, I'm older than you!" Daisy glared at Ronan and left angrily.

"Why did you tell her this?" Belica, who had been listening by the side, asked after Daisy left.

"She can't be a flower in the greenhouse all the time, especially after she returns to Hinterlands, a new storm will arise because of her. Belica, no one in this world is innocent!"

Belica was silent for a while after hearing the words, and finally sighed involuntarily.

"Yeah, how many people in this world can transcend the world. I'm ready here. I made a few simple refusals. Although they can't be called excellent, they are enough to block the entrance."

Ronan nodded, and just as he was about to say something, he heard the sound of horseshoes. It was the cavalry who had returned.

Kujit dismounted from his horse and walked quickly to Ronan's side, saying: "I found the trace of the Bloodfang Group, and we will find it in about half an hour."

"Okay, Belica, call the caravans."

Belica nodded, turned and walked towards the caravan. After a while, the caravan leaders gathered together.

"I want to tell you a very unfortunate news. The scouts sent by our caravan spotted the notorious Bloodfang Squad not far away, and they are rushing towards us."

"Blood Fangs? How did they appear here?"

"Yeah, what should I do, I heard that the blood tooth group never keeps alive."

"Okay, everyone, don't talk about it anymore. It's useless to talk about it now. Unless you abandon the goods, it is impossible to run past the bloody teeth. We can only unite and rely on this camp to force them to follow us. There is only a chance of life in foot combat."

The merchants and guards talked a lot, and in the end, except for a group of caravans who abandoned the goods and left, the others were reluctant to part with the goods, because for many small caravans, it would be difficult to make a comeback if they lost the goods.

Time was running out, and the camp immediately became busy. Those who could fight took up weapons and put on armor, while the rest drove horses and carriages to the center. Daisy and other non-combatants were still hiding in the carriages.

"Iron cavalry, mercenaries and Rhodoks form a formation with the caravan guards to protect the carriage. We are responsible for the exit here, and the other exit is handed over to the guards of other caravans. The Nords will follow me to kill the enemy at the front. Be careful, the fence is not high, although horses can't get over it, but people can still turn over, don't let someone steal your ass."

Ten minutes later, the camp was ready, and the exits on both sides were put up with simple refusal horses. Ronan led his men to guard one side, and the guards of the rest of the caravan guarded the other side.

The total number of fighters is less than 150, but although these caravan guards are equipped with various equipment, they are all veterans who have experienced battles. Their strength is worth looking forward to, but there are no powerful people. The total number of Blood Fangs exceeds 500, three times the number of people in the camp. Whether the battle can be won or not depends on Ronan and his party.
