Chapter 109 Escort (3)

"When do you think they will launch an attack, or who is the enemy?" Chen Rong asked Chen Nuo next to him as he looked at the gradually tilting sun.

"I don't know! But I guess the enemy must be recruited by the fathers of the two young ladies." Chen Nuo didn't know when the attack would happen, but he probably chose to either go halfway or just stay at the other party's home.

The former means that they will attack the two ladies to threaten their fathers, and at the same time they can block their fathers from obtaining external support. However, the latter means that the other party is very powerful and is not afraid of the two ladies' fathers looking for someone at all.

So Chen Nuo would rather attackers appear halfway after they set out than want the other party to block the house directly in the city. So although Chen Nuo squinted his eyes slightly now, in fact, he was very alert and his hands basically never left the hilt.

"I guess if I want to come, it should be soon! Going forward, I will leave the control area of ​​the garrison in the Remnants Village. After passing the control area, there is the place where Hurta's patrol cavalry will pass. They only have this area of ​​about five kilometers to attack." Chen Rong was very familiar with the map around Hurta during this period, after all, he was fined three times in a row.

"What if the other party can even transfer patrol cavalry?" Chen Nuo suddenly asked, and then Chen Rong's face turned a little ugly.

"Then we'll probably be in trouble!" Chen Rong's face became not very good-looking.

"We were in trouble! Let the driver stop for a while, and if he keeps stopping, he will put the knife around his neck." Chen Nuo said this to Chen Rong, and it was also something that the driver in front could hear.

The coachman subconsciously shrank his neck because Chen Nuo's tone was very cold. After a period of confrontation between his life and the orders he received secretly, the coachman decisively chose to admit defeat.

"Why do you need to stop!" Jira shouted at the coachman angrily.

"Because the horses need rest!" Chen Nuo answered for the coachman, and then asked the coachman to loosen the reins and let the horses have time to rest.

"Impossible! These horses can run until Hurta without resting." Jira shouted angrily.

"But I think they need it! And I am the captain of the guard, at least I have to stop before I confirm safety." Chen Nuo didn't have time to pay attention to the young lady.

"You..." Jira was almost angry, but in the end she could only close the carriage door angrily and huddle in the carriage with her sister.

"No problem, right?" Chen Rong asked anxiously. Now he always felt that danger would come at any time, but TMD didn't even have a barrier on this road.

"Not yet! But let everyone wear all their armor, especially the protective gear for the protective arrows! I guess if an enemy attacks them, they will use bows and arrows." Chen Nuo looked at the road in the distance, and it can be said that there was basically no one on the road in the distance, and it can be said that there was no village or shop behind them. The two young ladies probably locked the carriage at this moment. After all, they were afraid that Chen Nuo and the others would directly turn into bandits and get both personal wealth.

However, these two people probably thought too much, Chen Nuo and the others did not have that kind of hobby. They are basically busy wearing armor and preparing armor now. After all, arrows are really something that can kill people. Compared to firing sound rifles, bows and arrows are the more deadly things for Chen Nuo and the others.

Only by relying on strong intuition can we avoid the arrows shot from the secret, and there are only a few of Chen Nuo and the other thirty people who can do this. Therefore, the bow and arrow are the greatest danger to Chen Nuo and the others. Of course, it is definitely not a soft short bow that can cause such a threat.

"It's a pity that we can't set fire, otherwise this grassland will burn, so we don't have to worry about those enemies hiding in the grass and jumping out." Chen Rong sighed helplessly at the meadow half-height around.

"If you burn it, it is estimated that the herdsmen of Hurta will fight you to the death!" Chen Nuo was also helpless. The reason why Hurta's meat is cheaper than Senta is mainly because it is a semi-animal and semi-agricultural city. Nearly one-third of the farmers in Hurta are engaged in animal husbandry, and the livestock they raise is the most important source of meat in the entire Hurta or the northwest region of Elta.

On the other side of the capital, a flavored prosciutto produced by Hurta can be sold for more than a dozen silver tars, and the top-quality ones can even be sold for nearly a quinthal price, but in Hurta, a local flavored prosciutto produced by Hurta can be sold for only ten silver tars at most.

Therefore, the pasture is a very important resource for Hurta. Although those half-human-tall weeds may not have any value, no one dares to burn as long as there is a pasture around. If you dare to burn the meadow, you will have to face the collective anger of the entire Hurta lord and even the people. It is estimated that one person and one fist can kill Chen Nuo and the others.

This is a warning that Chen Nuo and the others were instilled when they were out on missions in the Remnants' Village, warning them to take care of the fire when camping in the wilderness and not to ignite the surrounding grassland.

"Perhaps the person coming will hide in a certain grass. If I guessed right, I guess there would be a pair of eyes staring at us not far away." Chen Nuo looked into the distance, and the large area of ​​grass in the breeze was blowing salsa.

"I feel so too! Unfortunately, there is no infrared on hand, otherwise you will know at a glance." For these military orphans from Blue Star, infrared telescopes are a good thing, and they can detect many hidden beasts and monsters, but unfortunately they don't have that kind of good thing.

Chen Nuo and the others didn't know that just one kilometer away from their stop and rest, some people holding weapons were waiting anxiously.

"Why isn't the carriage coming yet?!" a leader shouted in great angrily.

"Be quiet! Gold! If someone finds out, I will kill you." Another man holding a hammer lowered his head and bit a bone.

If Chen Nuo and the others could probably guess who the two people were talking here, they were the leaders of the two gangs formed by Senta refugees, the boss of the Bearded Gang, and Matt Charlie of the Hammer Gang. Obviously, they were the enemies Chen Nuo and the others were worried about launching an attack on the way, but they didn't know why they were doing this.

"You said how much money did those two little girls bring? And if they really caught them, will that adult reward us?" Gold grabbed his beard and asked the person next to him.

"No matter how much money we have, the first thing we have to do is not to waste their faces, otherwise the adult will twist our heads off and stuff them into our butts." Matt took a hard bite, and the hard bones were easily broken by his teeth. At the same time, his eyes were completely black and there was almost no whites.

"Tsk!..." Gold scratched his back without caring, as if something was there that made him feel itchy.
