A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 97 Why is ginger so old?

"Javier! Give me the other sack too."

soon.

Dutch took the sack from Javier. He opened both bags and placed them at his feet. He said loudly:

"How's it going? Gentlemen, this is a lot of money. I believe that no matter how generous Cornwall is to you, if you continue to work under him, I'm afraid you won't be able to earn this money in two lifetimes."

The squad leader was completely moved at this time, but his greed drove him to continue:
"Well, it makes sense, although you are right, Mr. Van der Linde, but after all, the brothers are thinking of Mr. Cornwall's kindness to us, and besides, we are not the kind of people who care about money... …If we have to apologize to Mr. Cornwall, I’m sorry, and we’ll have to pay more.”

Dutch smiled and laughed loudly. He picked up a sack at his feet, tied it up, and threw it back to Javier. Then he pulled out the gun from his gun bag and mocked the squad leader. said:

"In that case, I think you may have to choose between my bullets and this bag of money now, sir?"

Dutch knew that it was absolutely impossible to indulge the appetite of such a greedy person. Now that the hook had been bitten, he was not afraid that they would be decoupled. They were obviously just running dogs who worked hard for money, so why were they pretending to be here with him? gentleman.

It really makes people laugh out loud.

Sure enough, seeing Dutch changing the conditions to a bag of money, the team leader immediately changed his face and said with an apologetic smile:

"Haha, don't be angry, okay, we want both bags of money! Just give us the money and we will leave immediately."

Seeing that he agreed, Dutch didn't waste any more time bargaining. He just wanted to take everyone out of here immediately. He was worried that since Cornwall had learned the location of their camp, where were the Pinkerton people? ?
Don't stay here for long.

Although he didn't know why he didn't see them here, Dutch knew that he couldn't be dragged here now, otherwise, if he faced Pinkerton, it wouldn't be something that could be solved with this little money.

However, Dutch still had to guard against the people in front of him changing their minds. He said:
"I can only give you one bag first, give me back my guys, and I'll give you another bag."

The team leader is not stupid. Without the hostage, he has nothing to do with the other party. He quickly replied:
"Okay, you give us a bag first, and then you stay here. I will leave with the hostages. You can send someone to follow us with the money. After we leave here, we will hand over the money and the people."

Dutch thought for a while and nodded in agreement. Their target was themselves. Since they got the money but didn't catch themselves, they would not embarrass the person who exchanged it.

After the team leader and the others took the hostages and left, Dutch asked Javier to follow them with the money.

"Dutch, I'm going too, I'm worried!" John shouted loudly. He had been stopped by Charles from just now until now, and was only let go now.

"Stop being ridiculous, trust me, Abigail and Jack will be fine." Dutch said in a low tone.

After saying that, Dutch and the others were not idle, and immediately ordered everyone to get ready. When the hostages were released, they would leave here immediately and go to the new camp.

Just as Charles and Lenny were preparing to hitch the horses to the carriage in the camp.

The pair suddenly found the bodies of several Cornish employees on the ground
And here, the uncle is also lying in it.

……

Push the time forward, before Dutch and the others come back.

Cornish security employees have quietly surrounded the Horseshoe Lookout from all sides.

"Hey! Girls, something's not right, someone is coming." The uncle was sitting on the carriage. He looked at the large group of disturbed forest birds in the forest and shouted loudly.

It is raining heavily, and the birds will basically stop on the trees to take shelter from the rain. Unless someone disturbs them, they will not fly in the rain.

The uncle immediately became alert.

When she heard the uncle's call, Susan, who was hiding from the rain with the girls in the carriage, decisively picked up the double-barreled shotgun on the carriage, led the girls up and down from the carriage, and used the carriage as a cover. Watching quietly.

At this moment, the rain kept falling from the uncle's face. He silently pointed his gun in the direction of the woods.

After a while, it seemed like there was no problem.

But the uncle knows that this is all an illusion.

Although the uncle already had a bad premonition in his heart at this moment, he was the only soldier in the camp now. Even though he was old, he could still carry the gun. He could only hear him shouting towards the woods:

"Friends opposite, we only have old people and children here, and we don't have any valuable property. You'd better leave. I only have one life, old man, but the gun in my hand can still take away a few people, so come out." , I see you."

When the Cornish employees in the woods heard that they had been discovered, they stopped hiding.

Followed by.

The uncle saw that one after another people wearing long black windbreakers soaked by the rain appeared in the forest, and they surrounded them with weapons.

The leading squad leader, after briefly looking at the people hiding behind the convoy, confirmed that there were only old people and women, so he said politely:
"We are here to find Dutch van der Linde, old man, is he here?"

"Huh? What's Dutch, what's Van der Linde, we don't know this person, I told you, we have no money, we are just preparing to go to the team in the west and make temporary repairs here..."

The squad leader nodded. Even though there were only old people and women in front of him, he still stepped back cautiously. After all, no matter whether it was a bullet shot from a woman or an old man, it was no different from that of an adult male.

The squad leader continued to speak loudly:
"Okay, you put down your weapons first. We don't want to hurt old people and women if it's not necessary, but the news we got is not wrong. If you really have nothing to do with Dutch Van der Linde, I think, you You probably won’t mind if we stay with you for a while, right?”

"Huh? What did you say? I can't hear you clearly. Come closer and tell me..." The uncle put his hands on his ears and said as if he couldn't hear clearly.
The heavy rain washed the leaves, making a splashing sound.

The squad leader sighed. This old guy, I don’t know what happened, always reminded him of his alcoholic father. With the best attitude of solving the problem without taking action, the squad captain waved his hand and asked the deputy captain to go over and talk to them. Speak clearly.

After receiving the order, the deputy captain put away the gun without a care, and then walked carelessly towards the uncle behind the carriage. "boom!"

"..."

"Fuck, find cover!" the squad leader shouted towards the others.

If he was careless, the squad leader clearly saw that his deputy captain's head was blown away by a gunshot. He didn't even have time to scream, and he just fell to the ground like this, dead.

There was no doubt that the information was correct and that this was the man from Van der Linde's gang.

"Shoot! Fight back!" The squad leader gave the order to fire without hesitation.

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Don't shoot! It's a misfire, it's a misfire!" After hearing the sound of bullets falling on the carriage from the opposite side, the uncle hurriedly shouted.

The squad leader shouted: "Cease fire!"

When the uncle saw the ceasefire on the other side, he quickly threw the spear in his hand and shouted:

"I took the gun out and threw it away. Look, I don't have a weapon in my hand. Come out."

After speaking, the uncle raised his hands and walked out from behind the carriage.

Although he had already seen the thrown weapons and the uncle who came out from behind the carriage, the scene just now made the captain hesitate a bit now. He thought to himself, if he hadn't been careful just now and let the deputy captain go, he would be so afraid of death. Isn’t it just you?

It’s better to be cautious.

If he was really tricked by the old man, he would not be able to see anyone until he died.

The squad leader shouted to the people below:

"Be careful, come on all of them, let me control them all."

After saying that, he kept it in mind and did not step forward. He still stayed where he was.

The uncle also saw that the squad leader did not come forward. He made a small 'cut' sound and looked at the man who slowly came to him with the gun raised. Without hesitation, he stretched out his right hand to take out the gun bag. gun.

"Fuck! Where's my gun bag?"

"Snapped!"

The Cornish employee hit the uncle directly on the head with the butt of his gun, killing him.

Seeing the uncle being knocked to the ground, Molly, Karen and Tilly, who were still hiding behind the carriage, rushed over like crazy. They pounced on the man and grabbed him again. Scratching and pulling hair.

Pearson even took his iron pot and hit the Convoy employee who was jumped by the three people.

Susan didn't wait any longer at this time, she stepped out from behind the carriage neatly, pointed the gun at the approaching enemy, and pulled the trigger continuously, but for some reason, she didn't hear the gunshot.

But this actually startled the Cornwall employees on the opposite side, but seeing Susan's misfiring gun, they laughed out loud.

"This old lady can do it. I almost fell down."

"You should be lucky that I won't do anything with women. You should be more honest..."

"what!!!"

Susan had never been so out of control. She shouted like other girls, using the gun in her hand as a stick and rushed towards the enemy.

This unexpected move allowed her to successfully knock down an employee, and then Susan was immediately pushed into the muddy water by the other two employees who reacted.

Abigail looked at the scene in front of her. She was anxious and scared. She hugged little Jack tightly and hid behind the carriage.

She must protect her child.

She tightened her grip on the kitchen knife.

Abigail was ready to fight them if they tried to hurt little Jack.

On the other side, poor Sadie failed to find the weapon in the end, and was eventually controlled directly by Swanson, who had just poked his head out of the carriage.

At this time, the squad leader was behind. He looked at the unexpected chaos in front of him. He slowly stepped forward until everything was over.

Is this the Van der Linde Gang?They are all madmen, old men and women alike.

"Okay! Don't waste time, tie them all up and use them as hostages. I think the other members of the Van der Linde gang will be back soon."

"Ouch!...Who?!"

"Who the hell is going to stone me?"

I saw little Jack, protected in Abigail's arms, secretly throwing stones at the 'bad guy'.
