Chapter 1257 Weird Carriage
In a patch of grass on the top of a mountain not far away, several barbarians were squatting in the grass and looking in the direction of the camp.
"A group of people has come out. Should we send someone to chase them and kill them?"
A barbarian asked.
"No, the most important goal now is to kill these people in front of us. Don't split up your forces before you succeed. It won't be too late to send people to chase them after you kill these people in front of you."
The leading barbarian snorted coldly and said.
"yes!"
…
As the sky grew darker, Zhang Tuohai's team of 100 men were still marching on the mountain road.
"It's getting late. Miss Sophia needs to rest."
The maid came out and gave the order.
Zhang Tuohai looked around at the environment. They were at the top of a mountain and the view was quite wide.
Although the wind is quite strong, it is still a good place to camp.
"Set up camp and cook on the spot."
Zhang Tuohai issued an order.
The soldiers began to pack their luggage, some set up tents, and some cooked.
The meals at this time were also very simple, consisting of bacon mixed with various grains, beans and wild vegetables.
The staple food is also a very hard cake.
Zhang Tuohai was not used to this kind of food, so he only ate a bite reluctantly.
I mainly rely on the energy bars I carry in my coat to replenish my energy.
Sophia did not come out of the carriage, but a fragrant smell wafted out of the carriage. I don't know what she was eating.
At this moment, a Roman soldier suddenly shouted: "Look, what is that?"
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed.
Suddenly I discovered that it was a fire.
The flames were so large that they set an entire area on fire, and black smoke billowed into the sky.
"That's the direction of the main camp! The main force of the barbarians is attacking the main camp!"
Zhang Tuohai immediately thought of the branch of the task.
"If the mission to protect the camp is this difficult, escorting Sophia won't be easy either. They will definitely not let us escape so easily!"
Zhang Tuohai immediately had an idea in his mind.
"Everyone, set off immediately! Abandon all tents and only carry food and weapons, now!"
Zhang Tuohai ordered.
The Roman soldiers immediately took action, began to pack their things, and frantically stuffed edible things into their mouths, trying to increase their physical strength.
"What happened? Miss Sophia was about to rest, why did she suddenly leave?"
The maid asked angrily.
"Look what that is!"
Zhang Tuohai grabbed the maid by the collar and pointed at the fire in the distance.
"Do you know where ? That's the camp where we set out. There is a whole legion stationed there. Now it has become like this."
"The only ones who can do all this are the Barbarians. They must be the main force of the Barbarians!"
"Now that they have breached the camp, they will surely see our smoke rising from the top of the mountain. Do you think they will let us go?"
"They will definitely send people to attack us!"
"So, we have to leave now, understand?"
"If you want to stay and give birth to baby barbarians for those barbarians, then you can stay. We have to leave anyway!"
Zhang Tuohai said this and rode on his warhorse.
The maid was frightened when she heard Zhang Tuohai's words.
Don't be fooled by her usual arrogant look, that's because she is bound by rules.
When I heard the word "barbarian", my legs went weak.
"I will inform Miss Sophia to prepare."
"No time to prepare, set off immediately!"
Zhang Tuohai issued the order.
The convoy set off immediately.
Apart from food and weapons, many supplies were abandoned.
Even including a lot of bulky loot.
But at the critical moment of their lives, they could not care less and immediately ran down the mountain.
At the same time, the originally neat camp had engulfed in flames.
A large number of barbarian warriors rushed into the camp and fought with the Roman soldiers.
Although, the Roman soldiers were brave and well-equipped.
But in front of the massive number of barbarian warriors, it is as fragile as bubbles.
They were soon divided, surrounded and defeated one by one.
"Finally, we can remove this sting. Brother, let's go plunder those guys' cities. I heard there is endless wine and meat there. The people there are as weak as sheep, and the women's skin is as smooth as milk."
A barbarian roared excitedly.
The bronze axe in his hand was covered in blood.
"Don't be in a hurry. Kill the people who escaped before and don't let them pass the news back."
"I will select the three hundred people who are the best at long-distance running."
The man holding the bronze axe had a cruel smile on his face.
"Victor, come back with their heads." The leader patted him on the shoulder.
Victor set off with his men.
He selected three hundred people who were good at running. They were all hunters and chasing prey in the mountains and forests was a common occurrence for them.
In their eyes, this is a chase of prey.
Victor and his men chased in the direction of Zhang Tuohai.
Zhang Tuohai led his men down the mountain. He found that Sofia and her group had also thrown away a lot of things, and several gorgeous tents were not put away.
However, the carriage that was most closely guarded was not abandoned, and not a single box was missing.
Even more guards appeared around it.
"There must be something wrong with this carriage. We need to find a way to figure out the situation."
Zhang Tuohai had an idea in mind.
The team walked forward.
The group walked all night, and when it was light, the carriage slowly stopped.
"Ms. Sophia can't hold on any longer and needs to rest."
The maid ran out and said.
"No, we are still within the barbarians' attack range. We must leave immediately. Every minute we stay here will increase the danger."
Zhang Tuohai shook his head decisively.
"Also, I suggest you abandon those carriages. They are too slow and they slow us down."
Zhang Tuohai said with a bad look on his face.
"No , we must not abandon these carriages. We need them, and Miss Sophia needs them too."
The maid was very stubborn and refused to give up the carriage.
Just then, a strong wind blew.
A stone shot towards me from a distance.
Hit the maid on the head.
The maid's head was smashed to pieces.
With a plop, the maid's body fell to the ground.
"Enemy attack! Form a formation!"
Zhang Tuohai turned over and jumped off the horse, using the horse as a cover to avoid being targeted by concentrated fire.
The Roman soldiers reacted quickly and formed a square formation with Zhang Tuohai as the core. They built a wall with bronze shields and their bronze daggers flashed coldly.
This is a large group of barbarians rushing out of the woods.
The leader was Victor who had been chasing them all the way.
Victor shouted excitedly: "Kill them all, don't let any of them go!"
"kill!"
The barbarians collided with the shield wall of the Roman soldiers, and a brutal fight unfolded in the wild.
