Babor Village, which has always been peaceful, is destined to experience a restless early morning.
At three o'clock, except for some people with ulterior motives, all the villagers were asleep in their dreams.
Suddenly, the dogs in the village started barking, and within minutes of the first dog, all the dogs in the village started barking.
The dogs made too much noise, and most people were awakened. For those who didn't know the truth, some were annoyed and scolded these barking animals, and some were worried that some bandits had entered Village, and for those who know a certain secret, their hearts are as if they were severely clamped by iron tongs.
Hooves! A large number of hooves sounded on the road in the middle of the village. The sound is very dense, and it takes a large number of horses to create such a momentum, so that in the houses facing the street, those who are awakened from sleep can clearly feel the vibration of the ground.
No matter how courageous people are, they dare not go out rashly at this time. They can only muster up the courage to peek outside quietly through the cracks in the windows.
Bang bang! The Fergus family mansion at the east end of the village was knocked open.
A large number of Arda soldiers armed with guns rushed into the mansion, with bayonets attached to the front ends of the guns, shining brightly under the light of the lights in the courtyard.
"You! Who are you? This is Lord Fergus' mansion, who let you break in?"
Several servants dared to ask the visitor. Most of the people in the mansion were taken by Fergus to blitz to "hunt", so there were relatively few people.
"I'm afraid I won't find anyone after I come in."
The leading officer smiled, and gave an order that made these servants feel that something was wrong, "Tie them all up to me."
"Ah? My lord, please spare us!"
Several servants collapsed to the ground in fright. The intimidation just now didn't work. Of course they knew that they had encountered a problem, so they resolutely turned to pretending to be cowardly.
"It's tied, it's tied!"
The officer waved his hand unmoved.
"My own people, my own people, don't do anything."
A thin, smiling man with a mustache ran out of it.
When he came in front of the officer, he nodded and bowed, with an extremely humble demeanor.
"My lord, you must have misunderstood. This is the mansion of Lord Fergus. He is a knight loyal to Lord Graman. Judging by your attire, you must be loyal to Lord Graman's army. , since it is the same lord, then everyone is their own."
The officer sized the person up and down, and asked, "Who are you?"
Mustache smiled slightly, "I am the housekeeper here."
The officer's eyes widened all of a sudden, "Housekeeper? Isn't that the closest dog leg of the owner? You must know where Fergus is, tell him his location quickly."
He immediately slapped himself on the forehead.
"No, you follow me to find the instructor of the battalion commander and lead us the way."
Two soldiers stepped forward and grabbed the butler's arms, one left and one right, and then they were about to drag him out.
"Huh? No, no, no."
The housekeeper struggled vigorously, and shouted while struggling, "There must be some misunderstanding in the middle, you can't arrest a good person by mistake."
Although he said he had misunderstood, the housekeeper's heart was like a mirror. As Fergus' confidant, he certainly knew what he, the master, was going to do. The butler's jaw almost dropped to the ground when he first heard the master's plan.
That is a major event enough to steal the family and exterminate the whole family!
What the housekeeper couldn't figure out was how the news got out and the army knew so quickly.
He had already controlled the nearby signal station according to his master's instructions. Besides, Paul Greiman had no chance to send a message through the signal station. He is still surrounded in the mountains.
"Misunderstanding?" The officer snorted coldly, "I'll soon know if it's a misunderstanding."
He waved his hand, "Search! Find out everyone in this mansion and take them away!"
In about half an hour, a bunch of people had already been **** on the threshing floor of the village.
Seeing this scene, Fergus' butler made up his mind that no matter what, he could not tell the army in front of him the master's "hunting location". The crisis can be resolved.
However, half an hour later, the steward told the soldier in charge of the interrogation of the "hunting location"—he overestimated his will and endurance.
"That place is called Rabbit Mangu Valley. There are mountains in the north and south, and there are only two entrances in the east and west."
The butler's mouth hissed when he spoke, partly because his face hurt, and partly because he had lost a lot of teeth.
"Lord Fergus... no, it's the traitor Fergus... oh boy... and his accomplices gathered more than 600 people from several nearby villages and blocked the lord inside, planning to take advantage of the lord's guards to relax tonight Assassinate when you are alert, if it still doesn't work...hey..."
He covered half of his swollen face and complained of pain.
Lieutenant Colonel Carter Hawley, the battalion commander, grabbed his clothes, "What if it still doesn't work? Tell me quickly."
"They just...they just..."
The butler was frightened by the lieutenant colonel's ferocious expression.
"They set fire to the forests in the Rabbit Mango Valley, and used fire to achieve their goals."
Lieutenant Colonel Hawley was taken aback, so vicious!
"Quick, bring a few people who are familiar with the terrain, and we will rush to the Rabbit Valley immediately!"
The lieutenant colonel immediately made a decision, and his subordinates immediately took action.
The officers and soldiers of the 8th Infantry Battalion rode their horses and galloped again. However, just as they were less than two miles from the village, they saw a light appearing in the night far away.
…
"They really set the forest on fire! These villains I must make them look good."
Paul swore angrily, and shouted outside: "Hurry up and retreat to the camp!"
The fire began to flash in the distance, and it burned bigger and bigger, and it burned more and more vigorously. Moreover, it was still windy, and the wind helped the fire. After a while, the surrounding forests were ignited with flames soaring into the sky.
In order for Paul and others to have nowhere to hide, the traitors lit fire in several directions.
The tents used as combustible materials have been dismantled. Not long ago, uninjured soldiers also walked out of the camp and started pulling weeds desperately, hoping to prevent the fire from burning into the camp. But they don't have the tools at hand, and the efficiency of weeding is not high. What's more, when the entire forest is burning, what can a small fire stop do?
According to Paul's order, the soldiers on the outskirts of the camp withdrew.
Standing in the middle of the camp was Radi Setia. When everyone was busy, only this green-haired witch stood there motionless, her eyes closed tightly, not knowing what she was doing or thinking.
Now when the fire got closer, she suddenly opened her eyes.
