Mount and Blade: Summon five outlaws at the start

Inside the camp, the sun shone through the thick clouds, illuminating the tense scene below.

A town guard walked out of the tent quickly, his movements were quick and orderly, as if he had practiced countless times.

They wore uniform cotton armor robes, pot-shaped iron helmets, held short spears and round shields, and lined up in neat rows, standing quietly in place, waiting for the order of Knight Barnett.

Next to the guards, there were about twenty guards crossbowmen.

These crossbowmen carried broad shields, held crossbows, and hung leather quivers around their waists. They stood straight aside, their eyes focused and determined.

At the same time, mercenaries and bounty hunters were also summoned, and they quickly gathered together to form a bloated group.

This group gathered on the left side of the guards, which seemed a bit messy compared to the guards' neat and uniform formation.

Their equipment was varied, some holding one-handed axes, some holding flanged staffs, some holding spears, and some holding short swords. A few were also equipped with round shields and kite-shaped shields.

The armor they wore was also of various types, some wearing cowhide leather armor, warrior padded suits, some wearing half-body scale armor, chain mail lined armor, etc., which was dazzling.

Hod and the other four had also put on their own equipment and mixed in with the crowd of mercenaries.

The four of them stood there silently, looking at the group of guards standing upright from time to time, with unconcealed envy in their eyes.

Nott and the others longed to be like those guards, to have a set of sophisticated weapons and equipment, and to become a truly high-level soldier.

Hod envied when he could have such a group of subordinates.

Regardless of whether the four people were thinking the same thing, the nominal commander of the team, Knight Barnett, had no idea. He turned over and rode on the warhorse brought by his entourage, looked around with sharp eyes, and shouted: "Let's go!"

With the order of Knight Barnett, the team slowly walked out of the camp. As they left, the entire camp suddenly seemed a little empty. Only a dozen mercenaries stayed there to guard the big businessman Henry, and everyone else participated in this encirclement and suppression operation.

After leaving the valley camp, the team gradually stretched into a long dragon of 100 meters, slowly moving towards the east side of the valley.

In this team, the bounty hunters who had horses received the order from Knight Barnett, and they rode away from the team one after another to explore the way forward and collect intelligence.

Time passed by minute by minute, and finally at noon, the team came to the edge of a dense forest. Knight Barnett just glanced at the forest, and immediately ordered the team to stop and rest here, and at the same time made a bonfire to prepare for cooking.

After the team stopped, Knight Barnett quickly dispatched a dozen mercenaries and bounty hunters to disperse around the temporary camp to patrol.

At the same time, the others were not idle. They quickly collected the dead branches and firewood around them, and then lit a bonfire. Then they took out the food they brought and heated it on the fire to ensure that they had enough energy to continue moving forward in the next journey.

"Boss, should we leave?"

Nott walked to Hood with a piece of bread and sat down, asking in a low voice.

"We can't leave. If we dare to leave at this time, he will immediately send someone to chop off the heads of the four of us." Hood ate jerky and pouted at Knight Barnett not far away.

"What should we do? Are we really helping them fight?" Nott pursed his lips.

"Let's take it one step at a time." Hood sighed. He didn't expect things to turn out like this. He wanted to find an opportunity to leave after killing Danny.

Who would have thought that before they could leave, they were dragged here by the guards and mercenaries.

"Let's eat first. No matter what happens next, we must have enough physical strength to deal with it." Hod patted Nott on the shoulder.

Nott nodded.

After everyone had eaten, the team started to move forward again. After passing through the woods, they came to a canyon.

According to the bounty hunter who investigated the news, the robbers' lair was in the canyon, and the robbers also built a small wooden fort inside.

Moreover, this group of robbers also captured a lot of passing travelers and villagers. Among them, the young and strong ones were taken into the gang by them, and the weak and old ones were taken as slaves by them to serve these robbers.

The team stopped outside the canyon, and Knight Barnett turned over and dismounted. After looking at the canyon in front of him, he waved to a bounty hunter behind him.

"Lord Barnett..." The bounty hunter walked up"Tell me what you found out," said Knight Barnett. "Sir, there are about 80 people living in the wooden fort. In addition to more than 30 bandits, the rest are villagers and travelers who were captured by them. They were forced to become labor and slaves of the bandits." The bounty hunter said truthfully. "These damn bastards!" Knight Barnett's face was gloomy. He clenched the long sword in his hand, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. "Sir, what should we do?" asked a guard captain. Knight Barnett thought for a moment, then said: "Send a few people to sneak in and see the situation first." So, three agile mercenaries were assigned this task. They quietly sneaked into the canyon and approached the wooden fort. Other mercenaries, bounty hunters and town guards hid in the surrounding mountains and forests, waiting for the signal. After an unknown period of time, the three mercenaries came back. "Sir, we couldn't get in. Those bandits guarded too tightly..." a mercenary said ashamedly.

Knight Barnett frowned, snorted coldly, and said nothing, just waved his hand to signal them to retreat.

"Sir Barnett, do you still want to attack?" A captain asked cautiously.

Looking back at the team hidden in the forest, Knight Barnett thought for a while and said, "Let's observe first, and then make a decision."

"Yes, sir." The captain nodded quickly, he immediately called a few guards, and walked towards the canyon entrance with Knight Barnett.

The group walked quickly and soon came to the canyon entrance. Knight Barnett half-crouched, hiding behind a big rock, and carefully looked into the canyon.

There was a square wooden fort standing in the canyon. The fort was small, about four or five meters high. However, what made Knight Barnett look ugly was that the outer wall of the wooden fort, which was more than 20 meters long, went straight through both sides of the canyon.

Moreover, there was a sentry tower built on the wall of the fort. Barnett clearly saw that there were two robbers holding bows and arrows standing on the sentry tower.

This meant that anyone who tried to approach the wooden fort would face the ruthless attack of the bows and arrows in their hands.

"Damn it! These robbers really know how to choose a place!" Barnett cursed and slapped the stone in front of him heavily.

Facing such a defensive fortification that could only be broken by a single man, the only way to break it was to attack head-on.
