"It's interesting. These NPCs value the position of the Pope more than we thought."
Liu Xing touched his chin and continued: "However, this Cromwell is quite famous in the Holy See. However, all the red archbishops who have ideas about the position of the Pope want to kill him to avoid future troubles.
But this should be the last group of enemies before Cromwell and Joan return to the Vatican."
"That's right, because after Cromwell and Joan returned to the Vatican, they had to fight against the careerists in the Vatican." Mu Yao said with a shrug.
Just when Mu Yao finished speaking, the convoy of Ye Yuanfeng and Cai Ji had already arrived next to a hill.
"There seems to be a problem here."
As the pioneer, David raised his right hand and said loudly: "Everyone, be careful, there may be enemies on this mountain!"
Hearing what David said, Ye Yuanfeng in the carriage opened the curtains and looked outside, and found a stream of green smoke rising straight into the sky on the hill next to it. It seemed that someone was lighting a fire on the hill, but according to the
Ye Yuanfeng's visual inspection revealed that the hill was only more than ten meters high. Everywhere he could see were flowers, plants and trees, and there was no sidewalk.
Obviously, there are no residents on this hill.
So who will light the fire?
A passing traveler?
It is impossible to stay in the woods on the mountain. After all, no one knows whether there will be any predators on this hill.
So in Ye Yuanfeng's opinion, the person who lit the fire on this mountain was probably in the same group as the assassin just now, because they were really stupid!
Let’s not talk about the assassin. These people on this mountain are obviously here to set up an ambush, but who would light a fire to reveal their position?
Sure enough, we are not a family. We don’t enter the same family.
"There is probably an ambush on the mountain, so we'd better get off the carriage first."
Ye Yuanfeng turned his head and said to Henry IV: "Nine times out of ten, these ambush soldiers should be carrying crossbows, so it is not safe for us to stay in the carriage."
Henry IV nodded, picked up his weapon and said: "You are right, Ye Zi, so since Cai Ji is injured now, just stay in the carriage to protect the two bishops."
After Henry IV finished speaking, he and Ye Yuanfeng left the carriage together. Cai Ji also took out his weapon and leaned in front of the window to observe the movements on the hill.
At this moment, an arrow suddenly flew out of the woods and stuck straight into the window frame of the carriage!
In other words, the arrow was less than ten centimeters from Cai Ji's head!
"Wang Defa!"
After being stunned for a moment, Cai Ji was so frightened that she fell back into the carriage. However, Cai Ji still did not forget to say to Cromwell and Joan: "Get down quickly, there are really archers outside!"
Cromwell and Joan, who had been chased all the way yesterday, subconsciously lay on the ground with Cai Ji after hearing Cai Ji's words, and the bows and arrows that kept flying towards the carriage played a song.
Messy music.
But fortunately, as the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, the carriage Henry IV rode did not cut corners, so the bows and arrows used by the ambush soldiers could not penetrate the hardwood carriage.
Ye Yuanfeng, Henry IV and others on the carriage, after discovering the ambush on the hill, took out their bows and arrows or throwing knives to suppress them, while the men brought by Lord were silent.
He sneaked into the hill.
"Your Majesty, hide behind the carriage!"
After David roared, he led his men and began to charge towards the ambush.
"Yi Zi, you said we can't get up there!"
Henry IV held his sword and said nervously: "This is my first time on the battlefield, although the scale of this battle is not large."
Although Ye Yuanfeng still pretended to be expressionless at this time, he was also a little frightened. After all, as a modern person, he had never seen such a battle.
Therefore, Ye Yuanfeng subconsciously wanted to shake his head and refuse, but at this time, Ye Yuanfeng thought of one thing again, that is, he has now come to a new world, and if he wants to survive, he may have to use a knife.
world!
Since fighting is inevitable in this world, it is best to start with the easy difficulty.
After thinking about this, Ye Yuanfeng took a deep breath, and then said to Henry IV: "There is such a saying in our Eastern Continent - the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. Now we don't know how many people are in ambush, so in order to ensure that everyone
For the safety of Uncle Wei and the others, we'd better go together, and brother, you also need a battle to prove your bravery now, lest someone will make a fuss about you bowing to the Pope when we return to Franconia.
!”
"I see!"
Henry IV also took a deep breath, then held his sword and said: "With this battle, I can bow to the pope and say that I bow to the country, because I am not afraid of death!"
After saying this, Henry IV rushed out, and Ye Yuanfeng naturally followed behind.
When Ye Yuanfeng and the two rushed into the woods at the foot of the mountain, they saw that except for David who was confronting a man holding a hatchet, everyone else had put away their weapons and were watching.
There were several people lying down, and there were several bows beside them.
It seems that these ambushes are vulnerable to David and others.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?"
As David's apprentice and the only one of the same age as Henry IV and Ye Yuanfeng among the people present, Tom naturally stood up and said: "Our attack went very smoothly, and we killed this group of ambush soldiers with almost no losses.
Only this guy who seems to be the leader is left, and he wants to have a fight with my master in the end."
At this moment, David stabbed the hatchet man with his sword. Although the hatchet man reacted quickly and tried to avoid the sword by turning sideways, he was still a little slower, so the sword that should have stabbed the chest was
Stung him in the arm.
After being hit by a sword, the hatchet man just grunted, and tried to cut off David's sword with an axe, but David would not give him this chance. He just pulled the sword horizontally, and the hatchet man's sword was cut off.
There was a bloody mark on his chest.
"Good sword."
The hatchet man gritted his teeth and said: "I lost, just come and give me a good time."
"Then can you tell..."
Before David finished speaking, the hatchet man shook his head and said: "It is impossible for me to betray anyone, so don't even think about getting any news from me!"
"Oh well."
David shook his head and sealed his throat with his sword.
