Chapter 76 Robbery is risky
This winter, villages in the northern region have become murderous.
After the expansion of the Vakiri's power, the original balance between the various villages could no longer be maintained.
The melee began when the Vakiri stole most of the food from the Kur people.
After breakfast, Andrew and Lawrence came to Doug's house.
Doug obviously knew what was going on and smiled at Lawrence: "Andrew and I bet a barrel of ale that you won't come over."
Andrew laughed and said, "Lawrence is a good boy!"
According to this opinion, he is indeed a good boy.
Doug looked at Lawrence with admiration, "You want my dog, right? Yes, I will give you a puppy this time when you come back."
Lawrence took the initiative and said: "I need slaves to help me work. They can be men, women, or young ones. I will catch slaves myself."
"Okay!" Doug said directly: "The village also needs more slaves to work. This time Andrew, Vip, and I will decide on the distribution of these slaves."
Originally, people in the village worked by themselves, but now that they discovered that they could ask others to do the work for them, the demand for slaves increased.
Especially the remaining male warriors in the village are eager to go out and fight!
Go out and grab more glory!
As if he wanted to have a fight at the entrance of the village, Doug asked his son to go out and make a round of announcements. Soon, within an hour, a fighting team at the entrance of the village was assembled.
Women, meat, wine, bread, clothes, livestock, weapons, oil lamps, bedding, all of these can be obtained through plunder.
Whether they are the Pumixiu people, the Wakili people, or the people of Pig Trotter City, they all have a strong barbaric mindset.
In this atmosphere, those who dare not go out to rob, or openly oppose others who go out to rob, will become heretics.
Lawrence took a hoe and set off with the large team.
There are men and women in the team. Emma’s husband, brother, and father are all in the team, and they all have eyes eager to succeed.
Mayor Vip shouted from the front of the team: "There are cows in Dumu Village! Bring back their cows!"
The emotions of the barbarians in the team became even higher.
The value of cattle is very high, especially when farming in the spring. Having one will save a lot of work.
This kind of urgently needed item greatly improves the morale of the barbarian team.
The more money the target has, the higher the morale of the bandit team.
Lawrence is very calm. In this era, whoever doesn’t want to be a wolf is a sheep.
Dumu Village is a gathering area more than ten kilometers away from Pumixiu Town, with a population of more than 100 people.
The buildings in the village are large thatched houses piled with hay, and the livestock are kept outside in fenced yards surrounded by branches.
The thatched houses and courtyards are leaning against each other, forming a primitive village surrounded by wet haystacks.
This place is on a slope, looking down from a high position and looking around. When the Pumixiu people approached here, the sound of horns quickly sounded in the village.
Doug said quickly: "They blew the horn! Let's rush forward!"
After saying that, Doug rushed out, holding an ax in both hands, like a berserker!
Andrew rushed forward with an ax in one hand, a shield in the other, and a horned helmet on his head.
After the two fierce generals rushed forward, the others quickly rushed over with weapons in hand.
The Domu people closed the wooden door of the village, trying to ward off the barbarians outside.
"I'll do it!" Andrew blocked his body with his shield and slammed into him.
The powerful body and collision force directly knocked out the simple door made of piled wood, knocking the two Domu people behind the door to the ground.
Seeing that Andrew had taken the limelight again, Doug rushed forward anxiously.
"rush!"
"kill!"
The Domu people are not good people, and soon the Domu people with weapons approached.
The Pumixiu people approached with farm tools and weapons, while the Dumu people held long knives and shields and surrounded the two strong men standing at the entrance.
The thatched house courtyard divides this area like a grid, and everyone's attention is on the frontal battlefield.
At this time, Lawrence was standing on the side, carefully climbing over the uninhabited fence.
He quickly climbed into the fence, and no one noticed his short size.
"No matter what, I am the same person who broke through the enemy's formation like Doug and Andrew."
Lawrence held the hoe and thought about his next move.
"Maybe I should do something?"
While Lawrence was thinking about things, a scream suddenly came from the front.
Because of the distance and the color of the sky, Lawrence couldn't see the specific situation clearly, but he only heard Doug's voice.
Andrew looked at Doug and stuck an arrow in Doug's stomach!
There are archers! !
Andrew's anger rose and he quickly locked onto the archer hiding behind the crowd.
Doug was sweating profusely. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Kill!"
Without any fear or hesitation, Andrew rushed directly towards the dozen Domu people.
The weapons of the Domu people are more sophisticated, and the villagers are more like bandits, but they lack fierce men like Andrew!
Before the second bow and arrow came, Andrew approached the Domu people like a violent bear.
His shield was like a bear's arm, directly blocking the weapons of the Domu people.
His strong body and muscles are not for show. His body, which is obviously half taller than the surrounding barbarians, hides amazing brute strength.
Five or six barbarian warriors were pushed backwards by him.
At this time, Andrew's ax came in handy. The violent ax chopped off the head of a barbarian with black eye stripes to the ground.
Blood fell on Andrew's face and shoulders. No matter how many people and livestock the surrounding ice barbarians had killed, they could not help but tremble when they saw the berserker in front of them.
Andrew didn't talk nonsense, and struck a few more times at the surrounding Dumu people.
Until an arrow flew towards his neck.
Boom!
Andrew's shield blocked the second bow and arrow. When the shield was removed from Andrew's face, what was revealed was Andrew's excited and bloodthirsty terrifying face.
He strode towards the archer hiding behind the haystack, and soon screams came from there.
The popularity of the Pumi cultivators increased greatly, while the popularity of the Dumu cultivators decreased.
The two sides quickly crowded together, fighting back and forth, and many Domu people chose to escape.
"Don't run!" Lawrence, who was hiding in the wooden fence waiting for an opportunity to act, saw a man climbing the wall to escape, and quickly hit him on the back with a hoe.
The man turned around in panic and saw a man holding a hoe staring at him fiercely, and said quickly: "Please! Don't kill me! I'm not from here, I was caught by them!"
Lawrence didn’t expect this man to be so spineless, and when he was about to ask where he was from, Andrew’s roar came from behind.
"Lawrence! Where are you?!"
The demon-like Andrew is looking for Lawrence everywhere.
Lawrence quickly raised his hoe to show that he was not a coward, "Here I am, I caught a Doom!"
Andrew saw Lawrence's position and quickly shouted: "Don't worry about that side! Come here quickly!"
Lawrence looked at the man in front of him, "I hope you can run away."
Seeing that Lawrence could speak well, the man cried excitedly, "Take me with you. The people here are like wild beasts. I can't talk to them."
Lawrence ignored him and quickly jumped over the courtyard wall using a hoe pole, ran a few steps and jumped over the courtyards to reach the open space in the middle.
At this time, the battle of hundreds of people has come to an end. They have either run away, died, or are hiding in the house and dare not come out.
Very few surrendered, and the barbarians did not have the habit of treating prisoners favorably, so most of the men ran away very quickly, or died quickly.
When Lawrence approached Andrew, he found Doug, the leader of the village fight, holding a bleeding wound on his stomach.
"Lawrence! Sariel said you can heal wounds, hurry up and save Doug!"
Andrew, whose face was covered in blood, stared at Lawrence with red eyes.
At this time, Lawrence couldn't say no, so he squatted down and looked at Doug's fat body.
"I'll give it a try. The first thing is to take out the arrow."
Doug was not dead, and he said with a pale face: "Lawrence, I will give you dogs and sheep when you go back."
"I will give you a barrel...three barrels of ale!"
Lawrence quickly had Doug carried into a clean thatched hut, and then used a hot knife to dig out the meat near the arrowhead.
The scene was extremely uncomfortable and Doug was in great pain.
Lawrence was also in great pain.
Doug kept screaming, and Lawrence kept disinfecting him with a red-hot dagger.
Once a red-hot iron piece was applied to it, he screamed and the pain was excruciating.
After working for half an hour, Doug, who could still speak and was conscious, was now as pale and cold as a dead person.
Doug's son Kate couldn't stand it anymore and yelled, "Stop!"
Andrew looked at Kate, "Shut up!"
Kate was originally furious, but after being watched by Andrew, she shut her mouth honestly and turned her head away from Lawrence and Doug.
Andrew said to Lawrence: "You go on."
Lawrence was sweating profusely and his palms were sweaty. He quickly said: "He is in danger now. I have one last solution. If he can be saved, it means he should not die here."
"If he can't be saved, it means this is his last battle."
Andrew was used to seeing dead people. Whether it was an enemy or a comrade, death was a normal thing.
The blacksmith used to be drinking buddies with them, and he died when he died.
"Say." Andrew was unusually concise at this time and spoke better than usual.
Lawrence said quickly: "Kill a cow, gut it, and put Doug in it! You have to do it fast!"
Andrew didn't understand why he did this. Fortunately, there were too many things he didn't understand. He had seen a lot of weather forecasts and all kinds of outrageous things. So no matter why, he walked directly to the cow in the thatched house with an ax. .
The tall long-haired cow was quickly kicked to the ground by Andrew. Andrew grabbed the overturned cow's hoof with one hand and steadily cut open the tripe with the other hand.
The cow was slaughtered on the spot and the scene was extremely uncomfortable.
Lawrence quickly directed Andrew to stuff Doug, who looked like a dead man, into the cow's belly. Because his body was too fat and he couldn't stuff it all in, he made him lie down in the cow's belly with his head on the cow's neck. The pulled out cow entrails were placed on his back to keep warm.
Everyone waited quietly, while the men and women outside began to count the prisoners, cattle and sheep, and collect valuable things together.
After more than an hour, Doug, who was originally pale, regained some consciousness, opened his eyes and said: "Water... give me water..."
Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't die now, even if he died tomorrow, it would have nothing to do with him.
The surgery was successful, and Doug, who was once able to stand and speak, is now able to lie down and speak.
The others also breathed a sigh of relief, and Vip who came in even said: "Thank you, Mr. Lawrence."
Lawrence nodded, knowing clearly that it was not because of his good skills, but because of Doug's stubbornness.
Treatment depends on oneself, and survival depends on luck.
Robbery also has risks. You should not only look at the benefits and gains of robbery. When you go out to rob, you must be mentally prepared for being killed, and you must also be mentally prepared for your wife to be widowed and married.
