Vol 5 Chapter 78: Another encounter

A group of Bosnian soldiers escorted a group of local people walking on the rugged mountain roads. These people were drudges in the nearby copper mines. Most of them were prisoners sentenced to the sentence. It was the Bosnian King Rowa who gave the order.
Since becoming king of Bosnia, Roy? Has worked hard for the Ottomans, and his enthusiasm is even more active than some countries and nobles who have long been vassals of Ottomans.
His cooperative attitude of course made the Ottomans happy, but the dissatisfaction caused by this obviously came one after another.
Roy? He did n’t care about the scolding of someone. At a banquet, he said to his men: "Many people who have saved their country and do n’t hesitate to bear infamy have experienced the injustice I have suffered and are doing this. Before the decision, I already knew my ending, that is, I would be regarded as a traitor and become a shame for my family and country, people will spurn my tombstone after my death, and even my descendants will feel because of my surname Humiliation, but I want to tell you all, I saved this country, I let Bosnia not be completely engulfed by pagans, and I also let the cross and the church stand on this land, so no one is qualified to judge me , Because when they despised and belittled me in the name of moral nobility, the Ottomans are ravaging our hometown, and I am trying to avoid making this tragedy happen less often. "
At the time, those who heard his words were infected by the king ’s great spirit of sacrifice. Some of them were originally dissatisfied with Rowa ’s behavior. They were also moved by the king ’s noble self-sacrifice, because In this way, when Roy? Ordered full support for the Ottoman rule in Bosnia, although some people still had doubts about his order, Roy? Soon used hard iron hands and brutal rule to let those people know that he The determination of those words.
Without hesitation, the people who tried to rebel, whether they were nobles or civilians, would be arrested and tried mercilessly as soon as they found out that they were dissent. Roy? The noble, brave, kind and generous people in the people's mind In the style of a great knight, he imposed a harsh rule for the Ottomans in Bosnia as a tyrant.
The workers walked along the rugged mountain road into the mountains. The veins in this area are located far away in the mountains. A deep canyon leads the veins to the southeast. Reach the copper mine.
The Ottomans need copper mines, which is obviously a top priority. Although the production of various mineral deposits in the Balkans is very rich, copper mines are only richer in Bosnia except Hungary.
The prisoners were driven forward. These Bosnian soldiers were recruited from their own territory. They were extremely loyal to Ruva? And extremely cruel to others.
The team passed by a small group of travelers on the roadside and saw that there were young women in the team, and the prisoners happily whistled with joy. This did not attract the dissatisfaction of the soldiers, but let them Also followed by blowing a whistle to the woman in the travel caravan, shouting a frivolous horn.
A young woman who wrapped her body tightly walked in that team, her headscarf was so low that she could not see her appearance, and a thick wool jacket wrapped her up and down from top to bottom. Thoroughly, she looked bloated.
However, her dress did not attract much attention. With the long-term invasion of the Ottomans, many people in the Balkans have actually converted to pagan beliefs voluntarily, even if they still believe in Jesus. The locals of Christ, with the subtle influence of the Ottomans for decades, have gradually accepted many pagan customs, such as the change in women's clothing, which has made a great difference between the Balkans and the West.
It ’s just that even if the package is tight, it can be seen from the flexible posture and light movements of the walk that the woman is not very old, especially when she has to jump over the tip of the toes because she wants to cross a puddle. Her sleeve exposed the smooth and delicate skin on her arm.
Coincidentally, the two teams chose a relatively flat place in the canyon as a campsite. Fortunately, this place is not a small place to rest, so in the shade of two trees separated by a distance, two teams The team stopped.
The Bosnian soldiers tirelessly checked whether the ropes of the prisoners whose arms were tied by a rope were firm. When they found that some people's buckles were loose, they ignored the pleadings of those people and tied the ropes tightly, while warning them severely Don't try to escape by tricks, just look at the arms hanging on their saddles and you should know what it will be like to escape once caught.
"I can guarantee that it was still a young girl," a dirty, bearded prisoner squatted under a tree and said to his companion next to her. "Between today's supper she shouldn't be from a civilian family."
"You said she was a young girl. I believe that this can only be seen by looking at her ass, but how do you know that she is not from an ordinary civilian family?" The companion asked in disappointment.
"Oh, look at how she sat down to eat. She knew that she was different from us," the bearded prisoner narrowed his eyes and looked at the young woman sitting under the tree with her legs slanted under the tree. "She ate It looks very disciplined. I used to see this habit only in the ladies of noble ladies in some big cities. "
"Have you ever seen the noble lady and wife?" The companion sarcastically asked, and then asked a little curiously, "Tell me what you used to do. I used to be a brewer, but when the Ottomans came, they did not allow people to drink. I lost my job, and for this I hurt the Ottomans who ordered the brewing workshop. "
"Oh, you're really a hero, but why didn't they hang you or cut your head directly?" The bearded prisoner asked curiously.
"Maybe it was because I said hello first, and I was duel with the Ottoman and I won him, probably because of this, I was really scared at the time of the trial that I was dead, but I did n’t expect to give I was sentenced to 10 years of hard labor, and speaking of it, I was considered content, and at least I still had the opportunity to meet my family. "The companion put his head in a grin, and then he asked," Tell me about it, how did you get hurt? " Caught? "
The bearded prisoner glanced at the Bosnian soldiers cruising back and forth in the distance, because the corner of the mouth was torn due to lack of water: "I have worked for many people before, and some of them are big people. I have seen those from their homes. Mrs. Miss, so I said that this girl should know that she had a good background by looking at her with a wooden spoon, but ... "
"But?" The companion asked curiously, "But what?"
"But it's strange how she appeared in such a place," said the bearded prisoner, and suddenly raised the other arm that was not tied to say hello to the young woman. "Girl, can you do me a favor?"
The young woman who had been eating silently stopped. She looked over with a little vigilance, and her eyes exposed outside the veil covering her face watched this side alertly.
"Look at the saliva for God's sake, little girl." The bearded prisoner seemed to want to squeeze a fairly kind smile, but the messy beard on his face made him look less kind.
The young woman seemed to hesitate, but after taking a look at the water bladder beside her, she picked it up and walked towards the prisoner's line.
The arrival of the young woman caught the attention of the team. A Bosnian soldier came to stop her, but the bearded prisoner had already explained, "I just want to ask her to slobber."
"Or do you still want to ask her for a place to stay?" The soldiers laughed insultably at the others, and the bearded prisoner laughed.
The young woman seemed a little angry. She stood there staring straight at the bearded prisoner sitting under the tree trunk. The water sac in her hand was also pinched to death.
"Hurry and give him water and leave," the Bosnian soldier told him, before he left, he looked at the woman with a bad-hearted look "unless you really want to earn some extra money from him."
The soldier's words caused another laugh, but the young woman didn't seem to understand what he meant. She hesitated and took a step forward to bend over slightly to pass the bladder to the prisoner.
At this moment, the bearded prisoner who had been lazily leaning under the trunk suddenly straightened up agilely, and at the same time the free hand suddenly reached forward and grabbed the young woman's wrist!
"What are you doing ?!" The young woman was taken aback. She instinctively wanted to yell but seemed to be afraid of making a loud noise. At the same time, she was shocked to find that the other arm of the man who was originally tied to the rope did not know when it was magical. Get out of it, and then quickly reached her waist.
"Sure enough, you have a guy hidden in your body." The bearded prisoner lowered his voice to the girl who was terrified in his eyes. "You haven't yelled yet, surely you don't want others to notice you, right?"
"What are you going to do?" The girl asked again in a low voice. She tried to calm herself down, watching the beard prisoner who was also reluctant to speak, she asked cautiously "I don't have much money on me, and if you want to rob, now It ’s not the right time. "
The bearded prisoner looked at the girl a bit unexpectedly, although I guessed that this young woman should not be simple, but she did not expect that she was so brave.
"I guess you shouldn't be hiding something like a dagger," the bearded prisoner followed the girl's body cover and touched her waist with the other hand. "But you are not alert enough to hide the guy in this place. It ’s easy to find, and are you sure you ’re going to mess with this thing? "
The young girl's hand was finally pulled out of the other party's grasp, and the water in the water sac in her hand was spilled too hard, and it fell on the opposite port.
But the man stretched out his hand and wiped the beard with water droplets and sent it into his mouth.
The girl showed a panic look. She was almost chased away quickly, which caused another burst of laughter from other prisoners.
The companion next to the bearded prisoner looked at him in amazement. When he saw that he had placed the rope on his arm as if nothing had happened, the companion asked a little dazedly: "Why don't you run, you have a chance to escape along the way."
"Why should I run away?" There was a smile on the skinny face of the bearded prisoner. This smile made the companion feel uneasy. It seemed that he was going to do something terrible. "I'm just a little curious about how the lady came to such a place. It can be seen that she is not the same way with this caravan, but it is a bit strange that people like her appear in such wild mountains and wilderness. "
"I think you are even weirder," the companion moved a little anxiously to the side, but because the arms were tied, he could only struggle for two times and then stopped. "No matter what you want to do, don't involve me, know that I still have Wife and children, if you let the Ottomans know that I ran away halfway, they will not be polite to my family this time. "
"Do you think he will be polite to you now?" The bearded prisoner smiled coldly. "To know that the Ottomans have ordered a punitive blood tax, your child should be in this punishment. You think you still have Opportunity to meet him? Maybe 20 years later, when he and other Sudanese soldiers come to catch you for labor, you can meet, eh? "
"What are you talking about," the companion yelled angrily. "Listen to me, I don't know who you are and I don't want to care about your business. I won't tell you, but don't you drag me in?"
"Okay brother, now it ’s a bit late," the bearded prisoner looked into the depths of the woods. "When you hear something going on, try to hide as far as possible. I do n’t want to take your life accidentally. Go in. "
The beard prisoner's words terrified his companions, and at the same time, the girl who returned to the caravan looked uncomfortably in their direction.
"Little girl, you shouldn't provoke that kind of person," a middle-aged woman came over. She was the wife of the caravanserai. It was she who agreed to the young girl's request for peers. As for the girl, she paid She was given a string of pure gold bracelets, and the wife of Shangtou thought it had nothing to do with it. "These men are dangerous."
"I know, they are all prisoners."
The girl nodded slightly, indicating that she was indeed reckless and hasty.
The woman looked at the girl's veiled face and paused, then shook her head slightly.
"I said these men are dangerous, but it's not that they will do anything to you," the woman glanced across. "I mean such men are dangerous for women, rude and even guilty of crimes, these sound like It seems terrible but with a bit of mystery, they have a special attraction that makes you want to pay attention to him involuntarily, but once you have curiosity about him then you are in danger. "
The woman's words made the girl a little bit at a loss, but it was reasonable to think about it carefully but admit that she said.
I was probably because of this kind of thinking about that person. The girl could not help but emerge a familiar and strange figure, a mysterious and exotic man, probably because of that curiosity that made me a little confused for a while.
The girl was thinking about it alone, so she didn't pay attention to the wife of the merchant who had originally spoken to her at this time she was looking up in the woods with doubt.
"like……"
The girl seemed to hear Shangtou's wife say something, but then her voice was covered by the rumbling hoof that suddenly sounded from the woods.
The Bosnian soldiers who escorted the prisoners also heard the hoof coming from the woods, but before they reacted, some of the honest and obedient prisoners in the team suddenly attacked them unprepared!
The bearded prisoner shot first, and the arm that he was broke free again. When he rushed to the nearest soldier, the soldier only took a step back instinctively. The arm bent by the bearded prisoner was already taken A cold light was wiped across his neck, the blood spewed out instantly, and the guard's body had not fallen. The bearded prisoner had passed by him, and at the same time, he pulled the waist knife from his waist with his backhand.
He strode forward, and with the waist knife skillfully playing the dazzling sword flower, the sharp blade had been rolled up from the bottom, the arm of the other guard was cut open, and he was tipped to the ground.
The entire team instantly fell into a dogfight. At the same time, with the rapid hoof from the jungle, a group of flashing figures flew out of the woods from time to time.
These suddenly appearing attackers were sloppy but brave. They galloped toward the team, and the sabre in their hands kept slashing towards the Bosnian soldiers.
"What happened!" The wife of Shangtou screamed in horror, but it caused trouble. The teasing Bosnian soldier seemed to find that they were rushing towards the two women, and the spear in his hand was flashing. Hanguang, with a terrifying light in his eyes.
The wife of Shangtou kept screaming, she turned and tried to escape but was moved by a box behind her. Just when she closed her eyes and made a horrible scream, a whistling suddenly passed over her head ~ www.mtlnovel ".com ~ Poo", the Bosnian soldier fell to the ground with a sharp arrow trembling slightly behind him.
"Are you all right?"
A young guy rushed in a horse, holding a bow in his hand, and when he came in front of the two women, the young man froze slightly.
Because he saw that the younger woman was holding a musket in both hands, and the muzzle of the black hole was dangling between him and the dead Bosnian soldier.
"I said that you don't know how to mess with it," the bearded prisoner came over. "It seems that you really don't use this kind of stuff."
"Who are you?" The girl asked cautiously.
"The two Kurash brothers are willing to serve you, Miss," the bearded prisoner looked at the young man and smiled. "So who are you, respected lady?"
Hearing the beard prisoner, the young girl looked surprised.
