On the Seven Towers

There is a river on the east and west sides between the hills south of the town of Arano. Huang Zheng led a team of people who had been wandering back and forth on this road for three days.

Everyone discussed for a long time, and finally adopted the method of blocking the road.

Huang Zheng judged that according to the other party's way of thinking, which always looks at immediate interests, under the tense situation, they would rather want to sell the goods they have accumulated in their hands. Avalo's escape is a trivial matter, and the merchants on the other side will not easily change the familiar route because of this.

Even if Janola is not intercepted, as long as any merchant transporting iron products here is intercepted, it is possible to find out the location of that village.

The arrival of Huang Zheng's reinforcements greatly supplemented the manpower in the town. So Calanda sent six teams of ten people to block three possible roads.

Avalo followed the team led by Huang Zheng. Although he had no education, he was very agile. On the way with the team, he learned how to ride a horse. At first, he had to be taken care of by Garcia. After half a day, he Just followed the team.

After wandering around for three days with no results, everyone's morale was not very high.

Garcia fanned his neck with his hand and said: "Company Commander, I think we should switch shifts with the brothers stationed in the town. And walking along this route every day would be too boring. If they spend half a month If we don’t come, can we continue for another half month? I think it’s better to send out scouts to take the initiative.”

"Scout?" Huang Zheng rolled his eyes at him, "You have just received the most basic tactical training. Who dares to say that you can be a good scout? Going further south is the sphere of influence of Green Forest City. Do you think you will bump into the other party's patrol? Team, they will treat you to a meal? Moreover, if we penetrate too deep into the opponent's territory, we may break the current situation. By then, won't the Green Forest City troops brought in in advance forcefully advance the battle now? As deputy platoon leader, can you learn to use your brain?"

"Company Commander, this is nothing. We should have taught them a lesson. Although Uncle Chen fell, it has not affected our team. We can fight!" Garcia said.

"Being able to fight and being able to fight are two different things! Time is on our side. The further back we go, the less losses and chaos we can reduce. Why not try to reduce losses as much as possible?" Huang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Moreover, if we can first It will be good for everyone's morale to save Lao Chen's body."

When the team reached the river and prepared to turn back, Avalo glanced at the river. He suddenly exclaimed softly, stretched out his hand and grabbed Garcia beside him.

"What?" Garcia looked back. Avalo was seen staring unblinkingly at the river. There was a small wooden sailboat sailing upstream with its sails spread.

"There is a ship there, and there is a man standing on the bow who looks like..." Avalo looked left and right, with a look of resentment on his face, "That's him! The fat man who was the leader of the caravan. It’s just Janola!”

Huang Zheng, who was not far ahead, heard his voice, rode over and asked, "Are you sure? This is the businessman who kidnapped you."

"Sir, I will never admit my mistake."

"Interesting! It seems that those merchants took the water route instead of land." Huang Zheng frowned and said.

"Company commander, what should we do? We don't have a boat." Garcia said.

"Go and shout first to ask them to dock the ship, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" Huang Zheng said to Garcia, then turned to a mage class soldier behind him and said, "Send a signal now to ask the surrounding teams to move closer to us. Ji Yijun and the others are not far away on the other side and should be here soon."

Garcia rode his horse to the shore and shouted with luck and determination, "The ship in front of us stopped and docked! This is already the territory of Tower of China. If you don't follow our instructions, you will be responsible for all the consequences!"

Janola was wary of this team wandering on the shore from the beginning. Such a large number of people and the strangely dressed team could only belong to the Chinese.

He had long known that the territory of Baron O'Farrell had been completely swallowed up by the Chinese. It was said that the Chinese only sent a small team and defeated the baron's own guards and reinforcements from nearby territories. This shows that the Chinese people are very powerful in combat.

The team in front of him now, although its number was similar to that of his guards, put a lot of pressure on him. As a businessman, of course he wants to avoid these people. Everyone knows that there is only a golden shield between the army and the horse thieves.

He urged the boatman to speed up the boat, but in the headwind environment, the sailboat had to make a zigzag, and the speed was really not fast.

However, just when he was about to ignore the Chinese and run away, one of their guards actually attacked the other party while talking to himself.

"Damn it, stop it!" Janola shouted.

"Boss, none of them are carrying bows and arrows. I'm going to scare them." The guard said nonchalantly.

Garcia on the shore quickly knocked away the flying arrows, took out the air gun from behind, and turned on the enhanced blow mode. After a soft sound, the archer who had just replied fell into the water, and Janola was frightened. Squatting on the side of the ship. But the guards around him also began to fight back with bows and arrows. The situation is getting out of hand.

It's just that the warriors on the shore can stop hiding in the tree trunks, and several of them have mastered fighting spirit and can knock off the arrows relatively easily. The archers on the ship didn't have much place to hide. After several rounds of shooting, four of the eight guards on the ship had already fallen down.

Janola hid behind a box, watching the scene in front of him with fear. Those long pipes are the weapons they used to defeat the baron, right?

At this time, he saw a fireball appear in the hands of a young man. Then, the fireball rushed over, brushed his scalp, and hit the wooden box behind him. The box was ignited by the flames and began to burn.

"Quick, put out the fire."

The wizard cast a spell, and then the voice came clearly: "Stop the boat and dock now, this is your last chance. Otherwise, the next fireball will hit your sails. The next time it will blow up your side of the boat."

"Boss, this won't work, the wizard will sink the boat!" The boatman said fearfully, "If we can't beat them, it's better to listen to them."

"Let's go, let's go to the other side, we'll abandon the ship and go by land."

"Boss, what about that stuff?" A guy hiding behind a box asked.

"Pick up the light ones and move the important ones."

Another fireball came and hit the mast, setting the bottom sail on fire.

"Quick, put out the fire and go to the other side!" Janola yelled at the boatman and the waiter.

"Boss, something seems wrong on the other side!" said a waiter. As his voice fell. A horse team rushed out from the woods on the other side, led by Ji Yijun. And behind him, there was also a female mage preparing a fireball.

Ji Yijun pointed at him from a distance and said, "Jianola, right? You'd better surrender, otherwise it will become a doubles match between men and women."
