Chapter 11 Its a bandit! (5)
"... In this way, the other party will definitely find that you are the mastermind behind the scenes, and then they will seek revenge in various ways. They will directly lead their allies to attack you, send killers to assassinate you, hire robbers to rob you... In short, your territory will no longer be peaceful!"
Ella danced and "terrorized" the old lord of Istria, making him understand how dangerous it would push him into.
Onluo Auck suddenly became irritable: "Can't you think of a way not to be exposed? I paid! A lot of money!"
"A lot of money? It means 20% of the normal price?" Amy sneered, "If you are dissatisfied with us, why don't we stop the employment agreement now?"
If Ella canceled the mercenary agreement with Istria, no one could tell what the 5,000 garrison would do. Onluoak was shocked and said hurriedly: "No, no, I am very satisfied with you! But... But since you are mercenaries, you must do something, right? I just want you to pretend to be bandits and teach the lord next door a lesson!"
"A bandit who can defeat a unit of one thousand men? Are the bandits here suffering from this severe?"
Alla said was just a rhetorical question. Unexpectedly, she was stunned for a moment and was really overwhelmed by this question. He threw a questioning look at the minister beside him. The minister shook his head helplessly and replied, "There are no bandits. I haven't heard of it in recent years. There are only some small hills nearby, and there is no place to hide many bandits. It has always been very peaceful."
Amy said on the side without any chance: "In this way, you will inevitably doubt you in the end. I have another idea, I don't know if you are willing to cooperate."
"What's the idea?"
Amy laughed: "It's very simple. Just give something out and be snatched. If you snatch a hundred of your cows in front of them, they will definitely not think of you coming over your head-how?"
"This..." the minister hesitated for a while, "Will this cow be returned to us in the end?"
"As long as you are not afraid of the leak, of course you can return it to you."
"Ah..." The minister looked at Onluoak with some timidity, "Lord? What do you think?"
When he heard "one hundred cows", Onluoke's face suddenly showed a painful expression. He covered his heart and gasped, as if he had suffered some serious damage. After a while, he trembled with a finger: "This, this, this..."
Onluoke had been "this" for a long time without saying this. Suddenly, he threw a reproachful look at the minister beside him. The minister was shocked and had to help Onluoke say, "That... our lord said, can we just come out... a cow?"
"One head??" Amy felt angry and funny, "I said, if you want to act in this drama, you have to be decent, right?"
"Ten, ten, ten...ten are ten."
Onluoke held it in for a long time before finally saying this. Then he leaned on the back of the chair as if he had exhausted all his strength.
Finally, Onluoak brought five cows and five sheep.
Ella continued to ask the pirates to set traps on the mountain. During this period, she learned from the minister that the source of the festival between Onluoak and the lord next door.
It turned out that when he was young, the relationship between the next door lord was always good, but as he grew older, the next door became confused. Once again, the next door lord took the hunting dog of the next door lord as prey and shot three arrows at it. Fortunately, the three arrows were not hit, and the next door lord also knew that the next door was confused when he was old, so he just reminded him gently. But the next door has always believed that the next door lord had snatched his prey. No matter how others persuaded him, it would be useless.
"So actually the lord next door doesn't hate your lord?"
"Yes. Otherwise, I wouldn't have borrowed it from our territory so safely and boldly. But our lord...hey, I hope you don't reveal that it was his commander this time."
In the afternoon, as soon as Ella prepared the trap, the scout brought back the news of the enemy approaching. Ella waved confidently: "The battle begins! Lead the enemy here!"
The hill where the Ella formation is located on the side of the Ella road, which is two arrows away from the Ella road. In addition, the pirates are in ambush. If the enemy moves normally, they will never encounter Ella.
Ella originally planned to send troops to fight feint attacks and defrauding defeats to lure the enemy to the hills. But since she already knew the relationship between the lords of the two sides, Ella boldly revised the plan and handed over the task of luring the enemy to the soldiers of Istria.
There were thirty soldiers in Istria, guarding five cows and five sheep. After seeing the enemy's vanguard from afar, they immediately drove the cows and sheep out from the side.
"Hey, brother, borrow it. You are not from here, are you? Are you planning to go to the Island Republic?"
"Yes, go there to fight and make some money! Our lord is right behind!"
The soldiers from both sides had friendly exchanges in this way. After that, Istria's troops walked towards Ella, while the enemy's vanguard continued to move towards the coastline.
Soon, the enemy lord appeared on the road.
"It's now!" Ella ordered the entire army, "make a louder sound!"
The pirates suddenly jumped out of the hidden place and started shouting loudly!
The enemy lord suddenly heard a shocking shout from the side, and hurriedly turned the troops to the array. At the same time, the Istrian soldiers shook off their armor and pretended to be defeated and ran towards the enemy in panic.
"Stop!" the lord shouted at them, "Where did you come from?"
"Master! Master! We are the people of Count Istria. We have just driven the sheep in, but suddenly there were many bandits, snatching all our cattle and sheep, and killing them here!"
"How many enemies are there?"
"There are countless bandits!"
"There are actually bandits in this place. That old guy Onluoke is really confused." The lord laughed, "Go back and tell you lords, I will help him clean up these bandits!"
As he said that, he rode his horse to the whole army, holding his sword and shouting, "That's just a group of bandits! Follow me and kill!"
"Here's here!"
Ella was excited to mobilize the pirates before the war.
"The whole army is ready to fight! Listen, as long as you capture the lord on the opposite side, the military expenditure will be settled these days. Grab the lord on the opposite side in one go and take down the ransom!"
"Wait a minute... Your Majesty, they stop moving forward... Your Majesty, they are retreating... Your Majesty, they are running away!"
Ella almost fell down the hill: "What's going on?"
Amy looked into the distance, then looked at Ella's troops, and then said hesitantly:
Chapter completed!
