Chapter 52 Fire and Sword 3
Sariel shouted to several people: "Follow me!"
Lawrence raised his head and glanced at the sky. There were no clouds blocking it at this time, but there was a dark cloud not far away from the moon. near.
But darkness is nothing. The fire used by the Kur people to ward off the cold is the best guide.
Lawrence glanced at Sophia again, "Sofia, pay attention to your surroundings. Don't be within the attack range of my weapons, but don't be too far away." "Yeah!" Sophia didn't care about the cold, stretched out her hands
from her gloves, and held on tightly. The handle in the center of the wooden shield.
The sound of fighting soon came to mind in the woods ahead. Doug was like a bear, hacking to death all the Kur men holding farm tools near the fire.
The other men and women quickly entered the forest with weapons in hand. In the forest were not only the Kur people, but also cattle, sheep and cargo boxes taken from the town of Pumixiu.
The Kur people used grain bags and cattle and sheep as obstacles, and quickly stabbed the nearby Pumixiu people with the stolen weapons.
Soon the two sides were fighting together. Due to the special environment of night and mountain forest, both sides could only worry about the opponents around them.
Lawrence's vision was also very blurry, but fortunately he always remembered the locations of several people nearby.
"Lawrence! Someone is coming to your place! Be careful!"
Sariel chopped the man who attacked her to the ground with an axe, and soon shouted into the dark forest.
Lawrence was shocked! When did Salil go away?
At this time, he had no intention of caring about Sariel, and Lawrence quickly guarded his surroundings.
Breathe in,
Lawrence soon heard the sound of rapid breathing. The sound was obviously not that of Sophia and Emma.
After the dark clouds in the sky moved away from under the moon, Lawrence discovered that two meters away from him, there was a man standing two meters away, leaning on a big tree and breathing rapidly.
The man was in his fifties and looked at Lawrence with fear on his face. His hands were trembling and he was holding a long sword that he could not hold firmly at Lawrence.
Lawrence understood the other party very well, because his fingers had also lost some feeling due to the cold.
Perhaps only a pure-blooded barbarian like Doug could fight bravely in such an extreme environment.
"Ahhh!" The man leaning on the big tree quickly became crazy.
He looked at Lawrence fiercely, and then slowly approached Lawrence!
Lawrence's hesitation and seemingly cowardly stupefaction gave the other party the courage to commit violence.
Here, weakness is the original sin.
Lawrence raised his hoe and walked towards the other party.
The originally vicious man quickly showed a look of fear, his eyes filled with pleading, helplessness, and disbelief.
The distance of two meters is extremely short, which is just the time it takes for a few thoughts and eyes to change.
Lawrence struck the man's hands with the hoe.
There was no need to aim, the trembling hands could no longer hold the sword, and it fell to the ground after a slight touch.
Lawrence knew that if he didn't resist, the other party would have enough strength to hold the butcher knife tightly.
After knocking off the opponent's weapon, Lawrence held the hoe with both hands and hit the man's chin.
The man quickly fell to the ground, his hands touching the biting ice and snow.
He tried hard to retreat and get up.
Lawrence walked over slowly, like a farmer hoeing grass in the field, and slowly took a step forward and smashed the sharp side of the hoe into the opponent's foot.
"Ahhhhh!"
The scream did not make Lawrence feel any sympathy.
Seeing that there was no problem here, Salil quickly stepped forward to help others.
She has great strength, agility and agility, and always kills with one blow.
Even when an archer appeared in front, Sariel picked up a shield from the ground and quickly supported Doug and others.
"Well done! Salil!" Doug saw Salil coming with a shield, and quickly stared at the archer hiding more than ten meters away. "See the real power!" Under the roar
, Doug swung the ax out of his hand.
Not only Doug, but also the barbarians such as Salil and Kate also threw the ax in their hands at the place where the archer was hiding after clearing out the rest of the minions.
Most barbarians fight with two axes. When defending against archers, it is more suitable to hold an ax in one hand and a shield in the other. The archers in front were quickly hit by dense axes, and were soon surrounded by the Pumixiu people.
Under the blessing of large-scale slowdown in the snowy night, the cowardly people are like targets for mermaids.
Under the watch of cold wind and snow, the more numerous Pumixiu defeated the Kur people.
Lawrence killed one man and Salyl killed four.
Emma and Sophia both just stood there and did not see their opponents in the end.
Everyone rested next to the body of the Kur man all night, and began to discuss the next arrangements after dawn.
The Pumixiu people were not happy. Five more people died in this battle. Even Doug's two hounds were shot to death by the opponent's archers.
Doug sat in front of the fire, which is the treatment of organizers and leaders.
The tradition of the savages is that whoever sits in front of the fire listens to him.
Doug sat alone on the log, opposite Vip, Kate, Salil and others.
Lawrence is not qualified to participate in this kind of meeting. Since the end of the battle last night, he and Sophia have been hugging each other on the Dom sheep to keep warm, and they have eaten together with Emma and others.
Salil said to Doug: "Doug, are you feeling well?"
Doug had already put on his clothes and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm strong! You guys did a good job this time , you can go back, we will handle the rest by ourselves."
Salil is not a member of Pumixiu Town, and her willingness to help this time has fulfilled the agreement between the two parties.
And during this battle, Salil also showed outstanding qualities that were respected by those around her.
Salil nodded, "Then I'll take the people back later."
Doug said, "If Andrew is here, the next thing should be left to him."
Salil thought for a moment, and soon Quickly said: "Are you going to the Kur people's village to take revenge?"
Doug nodded, "The remaining people in the Kur village are some old people and children, but only with their blood can we wash away our shame!"
Sa Li'er had no intention of participating in this kind of activity and said directly: "I will escort Vip back. If the stray animals nearby are not brought back to be fed, they may freeze to death."
Vip said: "Salil is right."
Doug He also knew the importance of livestock and collecting food, "Okay, the young children and I will go to Kuhl Village, and the old woman will go back with the livestock and food."
Salil said: "Lawrence wants to go back with me too."
Doug was silent for a few seconds, but Salil insisted.
"Okay." Doug didn't have any expectations for the young man, so it didn't matter if he was missing one.
Soon everyone started to move, and Salyl found Lawrence and Sophia, who were curled up on the ground leaning on Dom.
"We can go back. The loot will be given to us in a few days."
Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief and just wanted to go home and sleep.
Sofia next to her finally felt at ease. She had been tortured by the cold that night.
It was a bit boring when we went back, and it became even more boring after arriving in Pumixiu Town.
The dilapidated village needs to be rebuilt, and several of the men who left have died in the battle, which is not a good thing for the women and children left behind.
The three of them quickly left the town and returned to the mountains and forests. After returning, Saryl and Lawrence fed the pigs and sheep and inspected the chicken coop, and then slept comfortably with Sophia.
The next day Lawrence went up the mountain to build a house and continued his peaceful daily life.
Doug took the young man to the Kur village, burned the houses of the Kur people, and brought back the last livestock and treasure food of the Kur people.
The antlers and his son's body were hung on wooden racks in the market to dry, then cut into red manure and buried in the fields.
On this day, the Pumixiu people lost a lot of food and their population decreased by one-fifth. Now there are only more than 300 old, weak, women and children left.
After the plunder and revenge, the war between the villages ended, and peace returned to the town of Phumexiu.
The Kurs attacked the residences of the Pumixiu people and robbed them of food and livestock.
The Phumisians regained from the Kurs what they had lost and killed all the Kurs.
