Rise In Calradia

Chapter 25: : Rebellion Army and Bandit

   "Stop, the man in front!"

   On the road from Veluga to Jelkala, a group of fully armed men blocked Byron and the others with a simple wooden fence.

   From the equipment, they were armed with spears, wearing leather armor and chain mail, as well as the yellow-green robes common to Rhodok soldiers, and they looked like soldiers on patrol.

   "What's the matter? Sir?"

   Although the identity of the other party is still uncertain, the distance between the two parties is already very close, and Byron can only come forward and test.

   "We are brothers of freedom. The army refuses to give us the treatment we deserve. We rush to find a way out for life. So, if you don't want to see the knife, you should pay the "toll"!"

   Byron knew their identities when they heard the first words of the opponent, which is the so-called chaos in the game.

   Whether it is a deserter or a lost soldier, these people are not easy to provoke. They have military weapons and armors, and their combat skills are not bad.

   The most important thing is that they don’t take everything you have when they meet up like robbers, but rely on force to blackmail, so there is little benefit in fighting against them.

  Byron scanned the woods on both sides of the road with his eyes, but couldn't observe anything. There were about ten of them just blocking the road, all dressed as ordinary spearmen. Of course, there were also two crossbowmen standing on both sides holding crossbows. The leader is wearing a pot helmet, the chain armor is covered with cotton armor, and his arm is protected by arm armor, which doesn't look easy to mess with.

   "We don't want to cause trouble, we are mercenaries, come here to do some small business, we can't make a lot of money in total, can't we sell our face?"

  Byron didn't want to fight against each other, but he still tried to ask, to see if his eloquence could not avoid this fortune.

   "Sell a face? We are not familiar."

   The chaos leader looked at Byron contemptuously, then sneered a few times.

   "We have been with you for a day, I know you are these people, and there are a few empty carriages."

   "Don't talk nonsense, either pay or do it. Maybe you have a lot of people, but what do your subordinates think about those dinars who have spent their lives to keep you?"

   The words of the leader of the chaos had a certain impact on Byron’s soldiers. Indeed, even if they fought desperately, they protected Byron’s own property. Is it really worth it?

   "They followed me for a meal. If I die, or my things are robbed, then they naturally have no money to take it."

   Seeing that the opponent used his mental offensive, Byron immediately calmed the morale of his soldiers. He was not strong in the first place. If the morale collapsed, it would be completely over.

   "But my soldiers are loyal to me, and I also have to consider their lives, so I will give you money, how much do you plan to ask for?"

Byron has already made plans to give money, but at this time he still has to pretend to be like a soldier to show to his men, even if this has little effect on some of them, after all, they are not stupid. , Can figure out his intention at this time.

   "200 dinars!"

   After looking at one or two, the leader of the rebellion made a price.

   "Man, don't be kidding. We are also mercenaries who are running around to find a way to survive. I can't accept your price. I can give you 50 dinars, and I have to keep the rest of the money to pay these people."

   Byron frowned and shook his head, pointing to the team behind him, and hearing the words payroll, the soldiers became energetic and touched their weapons.

   "I know you have money, I have asked, you are from the north to do business, you must have money in your pocket!"

   The chaos leader seemed very dissatisfied with Byron's price. It seems that they did spend a lot of attention on Byron and the others.

   But when the leader of the rebellion saw the situation of Byron's men, he quickly gave in.

   "Well, 100 dinars, hand over the money, lest we have to fight."

   The leader of the rebellion tried to threaten Byron, but he didn't want to fight against him. There is only one small team under his men, and they will not have much advantage if they really want to play against each other. He is confident to eliminate the mob, but the casualties are certainly not small.

   Most of these people who ran out of the army were like that, either becoming mercenaries or robbers.

   However, the rebels who have become robbers prefer to threaten and intimidate rather than fight directly, unless the opponent has enough attractive things.

  Byron breathed a sigh of relief. The opponent’s equipment was not bad. Level 2 and level 3 soldiers were mixed. His own advantage made a few cavalrymen, but the intersection was blocked by them. The short distance was obviously not suitable for cavalry operations.

   Byron took out a wallet, which contained about 200 dinars. He divides his money into several parts and puts it in different places, which is more secure.

  He counted one hundred dinars from it, wrapped it in a cloth and threw it to the opponent.

   The chaos leader took the cloth bag and checked it, and nodded.

   "Well, brothers, let them pass."

   Hearing what the captain said, the rest of the soldiers moved away from the fence, took a few steps back with their weapons, and gave way.

  Byron they waited for a while, and did not leave in a hurry. Seeing that Byron and the others were prepared, the other party finally decided to let them go. They formed a defensive phalanx and retreated a little bit. When they retreated far enough, Byron and the others could leave.

   The leader of the chaos army beckoned like a nearby forest, seeming to be telling the ambushing troops to leave with them.

   But when the people in the woods came out, his expression instantly changed, becoming distorted and shocked.

   "Look at who this is? The guy who grabs business on our site!"

   A man wearing a thick hooded coat with a warhammer in his hand walked out of the forest with a grinning smile, stained with a lot of fresh blood.

   Behind him, there is a group of people in different clothes. They dragged a few corpses with weapons in their hands.

   Judging from their behavior and equipment, they should be bandits.

   "You bastard!"

   The head of the chaos army clearly roared out, and the other soldiers under his command lined up and raised their weapons.

   "How did you investigate!?"

   "Captain, I swear it was fine ten minutes ago."

"Damn it..."

"Hey, that guy on that side. I'll give you back the money to help us deal with these bandits! I promise to share their wealth with you after victory. They are a bunch of lunatics, they will rob you if they don't kill them. !"

   More and more bandits came out of the forest, the leader of the rebellion also panicked, and even began to ask Byron for help.

   "If you want to die, you can try!"

   The bandit leader showed a mocking smile on his face when he heard the order from the leader of the rebellion, and then gave Byron a fierce look.

   "You have given the money to that guy, and we will take it. Now it's okay with you, hurry up and get out of here! Otherwise, we will kill you together!"

  Byron looked at the number of those bandits, there were at least thirty. Byron was really surprised that they could hide so concealed and act so quietly and quickly.

After weighing the gains and losses, Byron felt that it would not be good for him to intervene in helping either side. So even though he was angry, he still led his troops to bypass the two gangs of outlaws who were about to merge. The whole team trot the same. 'S left.

   When Byron ran a certain distance, he looked back and saw that the two groups were close enough. As long as his unstable factor disappeared, he would fight.

   "The dog bites the dog, it has a furry mouth."

   Byron cursed softly.
