Carlo dragged the bow in his hand hard, feeling that the bow string was a little loose, and he twisted the top strand again with two buckles. Feeling fit, he extended his tongue and gently licked the tail of the arrow to make the feather more Follow it, and then put the arrow on the string.
A very soft rustling sound came from behind the trees. Although it was already early in the morning, the sky was not yet completely bright. With the sparse white light, Carlo saw a wild boar walking slowly out from behind the trees.
The wild boar apparently swayed outside all night, perhaps already full of stomach, and was about to go back to the nest to sleep well.
So at this time, it seems to be a little bit of a soul, and an ugly head full of mane is swaying back and forth, like a drunkard who is not returning because of a hangover at night.
Carlo's hands pressed slightly, and the slight bow-string pull sounded unusually loud in the silent morning.
The wild boar seemed to be aware of the danger all at once, and it suddenly stopped to look around, and then it seemed to hear a weird sound, a burst of ears.
"Poof ~" A muffled noise sounded from the side of the neck of the wild boar. With this noise like a leather piercing, the wild boar seemed to be suddenly hit by an invisible force. The whole body suddenly lifted to the side, four thick hooves Suddenly shaking and kicking in the air!
"Hit!" Berri, who was hiding behind the tree, shouted. He followed Carlo to the wild boar that was tumbling, and then watched the hunter take a chance to ride on the boar, and then used the dagger. Cut it and tear its neck.
With the last sharp hiss, the boar's trembling hooves slowly stopped, and after a slight trembling of the body, he finally disappeared.
"You look pretty good," Burelli looked at Carlo a little unexpectedly. "A good hunter."
"I'm relying on this for dinner," Carlo whispered. He glanced at Burleigh, tied the wild boar's four hooves with a rope around his waist, and then put it on with a stick prepared earlier. "We put it Bringing it back will save us all from starvation for at least five days. "
"Without five days, Miss's army will come at any time," Burelli looked down the mountain, when the sun had already shown his head, and a soft pink soft light was slowly pouring out from under the undulating horizon. The Agrig Plain is slowly waking up. "We will be able to go back soon. The lady will take back everything that belongs to the Cosenza family. No one wants to take it away. If you are lucky, the robbers may not have left the storage room. All the salt and seasonings are stolen, and we can eat roast pork in the village. "
Carlo didn't answer Burelli's words, he just walked ahead with a stick.
"Do you have anything to say?"
Burleigh suddenly stopped, so Carlo had to stop. He put the stick on his shoulder and turned to look at Burleigh.
"The old Gumbre has said that it will make us self-cultivators," Carlo finally said. "I am willing to take risks because of this, but now it seems that the old Gumbre's words don't count."
"What are you talking about, the villages, the land and the livestock, and everything in the village is of course owned by the Cosenza family, and what power arrangement does that gombre have?" Burelli looked at Carlo funny. "He thought he was Who do you think he is, he has nothing to do with the Cosenza family. "
Carlo's face slowly darkened, and the look on his wrinkled face that had been blown by the wind all year round was even more ugly.
"So, everything I do is useless? I have nothing now, but you still tell me that I can't change anything at all?" Carlo grabbed his waist angrily and used it just now. The dagger that cut off the throat of the wild boar, his eyes fixed on Burelli. "Tell me, is that right?"
Burelli also sank his face. He looked at Carlo's hand holding the knife and slowly took two steps to the side.
"Why, do you think it's unfair?" Burelli grabbed a branch of a tree that stretched out beside him and broke it. With a "click", the branch broke off and Berri tried harder. Pull the bark and tender tendons off, "Let me tell you what you will get, the lady will give you a sum of money, enough for you and your wife to live a good life, you can go if you want As a soldier, you earn more in that way, so don't expect anything else. "
"It's not fair," Carlo shouted, and he drew his dagger and shook it in front of his eyes. "Did you see this? I'm going to teach you the lesson first, and then go to that Gombre. I want you to pay!" "
"Then give it a try!" Berelli roared, and the tree branch in his hand made a muffled sound in the air. "I want you to know how powerful it is!"
Suddenly, both of them squeezed the guy in their hands, their eyes widened, and they exploded into fighting.
At this moment, in the quiet morning light, the shadow of a slightly swaying black dot suddenly jumped from a distance.
Then there was another one, and then there were more and more black spots shaking, because they blocked the sunlight on the horizon in the distance, so they pulled out long shadows on the ground that could not be shaken, and the long shadows were always reflected on the hillside from the horizon Unable to change, it looks like the light and shadow in some ancient rituals.
"What's the matter?" Carlo first noticed something strange. He put away his dagger and looked at the end of the plain. When he saw the flashing shadows on the plain, he reached out to Bereri and gestured, "Did you see, there is someone over there." "
Burelli threw the tree branch, he jumped on a higher stone and looked carefully, and gradually a smile appeared on his face, until finally he shouted excitedly: "Miss! Miss is coming!"
Bereri shouted and jumped off the stone. He no longer cared about the Carlo next to him, but ran down the hillside.
At the same time, he kept yelling "Yoohou" and "Yoohou" in his mouth, and even the Alexandria and Elliott on the hillside could hear clearly.
Elliott's face changed slightly, and he was worried that Frederick might be coming.
Before he could be let go at the farm because there were too many people seeing it, so Frederick's people didn't say anything to him.
But in this wilderness, if Frederick's people want to kill him quietly, it is not difficult.
"This is Burleigh, and he sounds a little excited," Alexander stood up and listened carefully, then looked away, before saying softly, "Rosa is here."
Hearing Alexander ’s words, Elliott first followed with a sigh of relief, then he lowered his voice and said to Alexander:
So is everything like what we said last night?
Alexander looked at Elliott and nodded slightly.
Last night on this hillside, he and Elliott had just reached a private agreement.
An agreement that may be meaningless to him now, but unknown in the future.
Burelli was so excited, but when he ran down the hill, he realized that the seemingly close teams were actually still far away. Even if he stood on the farm and waited like this, he might miss it.
So he immediately turned and ran up the hillside again, trying to stand high above the ground to attract Lao Sha's attention.
Alexander was already standing on a protruding stone toward the plain at this time. He looked at the shadow of the swaying team in the morning light in the distance, and whispered to Uliu after a little contemplation.
Uliu turned and ran towards the campsite. When he ran back, he carried a musket and a small box of gunpowder.
Elliott's eyes seemed to inadvertently flick the musket in Uliu's hand.
What struck him the most about what happened last night was not the short but killing, but the weird firearm in the Moorish hands.
The kind of shooting speed that is much faster than any kind of matchlock gun he knows, really scared Elliott. This is also after he left and ventured to stay and observe not far away secretly, and hope that these people One of the reasons for being able to escape.
It ’s just that he knew that it was a very unwise act to ask the other party to show him that kind of firearm at this time. Maybe Alexander would be wary of him because of this, and he was really not willing to give up this piece of the Agri land.
"Wait, don't worry." Elliott told himself, he felt that it was not difficult to get the method of making this firearm. He was even thinking about how to look like him. A somewhat similar monk's suit was almost.
The light and shadow in the distance are getting shorter and shorter, and they are getting slower, but they are getting closer and closer.
Alexander looked at the already skilled skirmish of Uliu and loaded the musket, then stepped back two steps. He was really not used to the choking smell of gunpowder.
When the gunshots sounded in the open field, Alexander looked at Elliot next to him and noticed the flash of excitement flashing across his face, and Alexander also had a count in his heart.
"I will soon let Frederick's plans be passed to the Duchess of Venosa," just last night, Elliott made a proposal like this "Frederick's wife, Alfred's Mother Isabella of Venosa is not a good woman to deal with. I believe she will not be willing to give up if she hears the news. "
"Is this Isabella of Venosa very good?" Alexander remembered the slightly exaggerated expression on Elliot's face and the words he said when he asked this question with a little curiosity.
"Oh, that woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She not only has a large territory of her own, but also has a very good army. The most important thing is that the territory controlled by her family is too important for Naples. It was so important that Frederick ’s father had to let his son marry her, which prevented those territories from being taken away by others.
"If that's said, doesn't that mean that Frederick was going to marry Russa?" Alexander was relieved a little, and he couldn't tell himself that this was because Frederick couldn't annex Agry as he wanted. Plain, or this is because he could not marry Ruosha.
But Elliott apparently did n’t want to let Alexander ’s breath completely relax, and then he turned his words:
But this does not seem to be too much suffering for Frederick, just see which one he values more. The benefits that marriage has brought to him, know that the relationship between the Naples royal family and the Holy See is harmonious, and they are still in-laws with the pope. So if Frederick is determined to divorce his wife and then marry Miss Cosenza, it seems that It's not too difficult. "
Hearing this, Alexander, who was just relieved, frowned.
"So how about letting us reach an agreement?" It was at this time that Elliott made such a proposal. "I'll find a way to destroy Frederick's marriage plan."
"So what do you want?" Alexander asked, of course he knew that this person would not be able to help so kindly. "It wouldn't be for me to help you complete the marriage between Rusha and your father."
"I won't be so stupid looking for you to do this kind of thing," Elliott smiled slightly. "I only hope that if possible in the future, you can become a friend between Cosenza and Taranto."
Recalling Elliot's sincere expression on his face, Alexander felt that he wanted to trust him a bit.
The sound of muskets still echoed in the open fields, and the team that was advancing rapidly in the distance seemed to be somewhat stagnant, and then a few cavalry detached from the brigade and ran towards the hillside.
They seemed very cautious, and stopped to observe from afar, and when they finally determined who they were seeing, some of them immediately blew their horns.
The whole team ran down the hillside. The sound of the horse on the ground was shocking. Looking at the team, Alexander felt for the first time some real desire in his heart.
Master such an army!
Only with such power in your own hands can you survive in this era!
Then from here, Alexander secretly made up his mind.
Zuosha was in the middle of the team, although it was early in the morning, but the sun just came out enough to make it unbearable. When he saw Zuosha, who wrapped her head and face in a veil, she could even hear it. She breathed heavily because of the sultry heat, and realized that she had been crumbling though she insisted.
Burelli ran over to Rosa, but Alexander stretched out his hand. Under Burley's glaring glance, he grabbed Rusha's waist with his hands and pressed her gently from the horse.
"Adult, the lady is exhausted. We haven't stopped all the way. The meals were on the road." Mahimo, who ran from behind, kept talking, but he didn't look much better, sweating a lot. The trembling legs made him look as if he had just been caught and chased for two days. After saying that, he didn't even wait for Uliu to come over and help him, and he fell softly and immediately fell.
"I know, I all know ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Feeling the heat from him holding him, leaning weakly on her in her arms, Alexander lowered her head and whispered by her small ears covered in wet sweat Say "You have completed your mission, let me do the rest. "
Suo Shao's body suddenly stiffened a little, and seemed to be struggling out of his arms, but then he became weak again.
"You promised me," Ruosha's voice was low and weak. "You promised that I will never let Agry be robbed by others."
"Yes, I promised you, so now it's time for me to keep my promise, but before that you have to get a good night's sleep." Alexander said with a careful hug, and walked towards a large rock on the hillside.
After putting Ruosha on the shady ground, looking at the tired, eyes that could not be opened, and completely fainting, Luoshan paused a little, then lowered his head and kissed gently on her damp forehead. A moment: "Take a good sleep and wait for me to come back to my little sister."
When Alexander came out from behind the stone and saw everyone down the hill looking at him with weird eyes, especially Burley's eyes were so strange that he was awkward, he realized that his time behind the stone seemed to be slightly longer.
But he could n’t take care of this now, and went down the to look at the Bohemians. At this time, Alexander found that although after a few days of running, the Bohemians were still full of spirit, as if before 'S exhaustion has not caused them much impact.
Alexander believed that these Bohemians at least had a deep influence on him in terms of hardship.
The next step is to see how they perform on the real battlefield.
"I want to take the farm over there." Alexander said. "Take the farm, you can get enough compensation!"
"Miao ~"
The Bohemians were instantly murderous ~
