Such wounds were obviously not caused by a group of refugees.
"deserter!"
Grant's heart sank, and he redefined this group of gangsters. They could cut off the heads of villagers with one knife, and the wounds were very neat. This meant that the other party had rich combat experience and was definitely not the work of a group of refugees.
Therefore, they only have one identity.
deserter!
On the frontline battlefield of the Tucker Kingdom, the war was very tense. The orc tribe was pressing forward step by step, causing several armies led by the great knights to be overwhelmed. Therefore, under the threat of death, a large number of deserters appeared in the kingdom.
Strictly speaking, Gulen and others only withdrew from the battlefield to escape the war.
But before they evacuated the battlefield, they received an order from a centurion knight to return to the Tucker Kingdom with the wounded, so they were not considered deserters.
The gangsters in the village in front of me are obviously different.
Grant's eyes flashed, and he deduced some information in a moment. If the gangsters killing in the village were not composed of refugees, then they could only be a group of deserters. After escaping from the frontline battlefield, they began to become unscrupulous.
In fact, such situations are not uncommon.
Fighting on the battlefield, soldiers have long been threatened by death. Under mental stress, they will be eager to vent their emotions once they return to a safe area. Deserters without rules can easily become gangsters.
In most cases, the kingdom does not punish such behavior too harshly, because in wartime, every soldier has value, even if this group of deserters who burned, killed and looted were caught by the kingdom and executed
The possibility is very slim, and there is a high probability that it will be thrown into the most dangerous place on the battlefield and used as cannon fodder.
"This is trouble."
Gulen's face looked a little ugly. If the enemy were composed of refugees, the veterans could easily defeat them with their rich combat experience. But if the enemy were also soldiers who had withdrawn from the battlefield, then the outcome would not be certain.
"The opponent's number will never be small."
At this time, Aylin also frowned, with a trace of hesitation on his face. Although this small village was remote, there were at least dozens of families, and there were not more than ten deserters. It was impossible for them to burn, kill and loot without restraint.
"What should we do? Withdraw?" Next to him, Max hesitated.
Gulen was also hesitant. Without knowing the number of deserters, he was really unwilling to take the risk of starting a war. But if the enemy was not dealt with, how could the veterans collect supplies in the village to treat the wounded.
At this time, a faint sound of footsteps suddenly sounded.
Grant turned his head suddenly and saw a dirty little girl not far away, looking timidly at a few people.
A softness suddenly appeared on Grant's face.
He was already married in his hometown, and his daughter was the same size, so when he saw the little girl, he naturally relaxed his guard.
"Uncle, are you the heroes of the kingdom?"
The little girl looked at the veterans and begged, "Please, please save my mother, please?"
"Child, come here first."
Grant waved, and the little girl walked over obediently and hid under the bunker with several veterans.
"My dad was killed by bad guys."
The little girl sobbed in a low voice, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.com," Those bad guys broke into the village, killed the village chief's grandfather, and took away her mother and sister. Dad went to stop him, but they also chopped off his head. "
As he said this, the little girl raised her head.
"Uncle, dad's head has been chopped off. Can you help me find a doctor to save him?"
Seeing the expectant look in the little girl's eyes, Grant felt a little unbearable in his heart.
"Child, how many bad guys are there who broke into the village?" At this time, Aylin squatted down and asked the little girl.
"one two three……"
The little girl counted with her fingers. After a long time, she hesitated and said, "There are five bad guys in total? No! Six!"
Grenn and Aylin looked at each other.
If there are only six enemies, then they still have a chance to fight. However, the little girl in front of them is less than ten years old and has just experienced the pain of losing her father. It is not certain whether what she said is accurate.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared not far away.
"Not good!" Grant's heart sank.
The man who walked out of the tavern was wearing the leather armor of the Tucker Kingdom. He was obviously a soldier who had been withdrawn from the battlefield. He was unfastening his belt to let out water. When he accidentally saw Grant and others behind the bunker, he was suddenly frightened.
"Rudolf! Look!"
The deserter shouted loudly and quickly called his companions. Upon seeing this, the four veterans behind the bunker knew that they had been exposed and there was no point in continuing to hide, so they decisively jumped out from behind the bunker.
"brute!"
Grant roared low, picked up the standard long sword, and rushed towards the deserter, but the other party reacted quickly and fled back to the tavern in a few steps.
Subsequently, four veterans also rushed into the tavern.
What came into view was a scene of being beaten up. In addition to the deserters who went out to release water, there were a total of six deserters in the tavern. The leader of the deserters was a tall man with a half-naked middle-aged woman in his arms.
"Rudolph!"
Grant's eyes narrowed and he recognized the deserter leader across from him, and his heart suddenly sank. He was a soldier from the Tucker Kingdom and also a captain of ten.
"Is it you?"
When Rudolf saw Grant and the others, there was a hint of solemnity on his face. He pushed away the half-naked woman in his arms and grabbed the long knife from the table.
At the same time, the other five deserters also drew their swords.
The two sides confronted each other. The burly Rudolf looked at Grant and the others, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face and he said.
"Haha! Who did I think it was?"
Rudolf put the long knife on the table and said loudly: "It turns out to be Brother Gulen. It is really a joy to see you return safely from the front line!"
Glenn's face was still very alert.
The enemy had six deserters, but there were only four of our own. Moreover, Rudolf was also a captain of ten. Although his combat effectiveness was not at the level of a knight, it was still a lot of pressure for a few of them.
"It seems that you don't plan to serve the kingdom anymore?"
Rudolf looked at the few people and took the initiative to say, "This is better. For the sake of our comrades, why don't you join us too."
"The situation in the kingdom is in chaos now, we can definitely accomplish a lot together!"
"Who is your comrade?"
Before Grant could speak, Aylin had already said coldly, "We were ordered by Centurion Rhodes to withdraw from the battlefield. We are different from deserters like you."
After hearing Aylin's words, Rudolph's face darkened.
He originally thought that Gulen and others were deserters who evacuated from the battlefield just like him, but now it seems that the other party was ordered by their superiors to evacuate from the battlefield in a reasonable manner.
Although both are far away from the battlefield, their essences are very different.
Grant and others are still soldiers of the Kingdom, but Rudolf and others have become a group of deserters. If they are caught by their superiors, they will definitely be punished. Even if they survive, they will be thrown to the most dangerous place on the front line as cannon fodder.
"So, everyone is not from the same group anymore?"
Rudolf's face was slightly cold, and he put his hand on the long knife again and said, "In this case, get away from me and tell you that this place belongs to us!"
"After all, he was once a regular member of the Kingdom's army."
Grant had no expression on his face and said coldly: "What is the difference between what you are doing now and those gangs?"
"Humph! Of course there is no difference."
Rudolf did not refute, and said coldly: "The road is facing the sky, everyone goes to one side. Since you are not willing to join us, you'd better not meddle in other people's business."
