When all of them were on the field ready to march against the bandits, a scout came and talked to Bartrem.

"They're moving elsewhere?" Bartrem asked.

"Yes, since they use horses to move around, it is impossible for you to chase them."

Impossible because the captain would never lend them some horses. Horses, especially war horses, were expensive mounts that only knight or cavalry units could use. There were ordinary horses that merchants had, but those horses would run away at the first sight of blood.

"What do we do now?" Aldred asked.

"We wait until they settle down again. There is no river to the east, I am sure they will slow down and settle to rest. Those horses can drink a lot when they're tired."
