Dutch convinces Eagle Flies to trap soldiers with dynamite in the valley. Though the plan was meant to scare, it lead to a brutal shootout. Arthur and the gang face waves of soldiers, mortars, and chaos, revealing how Dutch's promises of control keep slipping into bloodshed.
Dutch has convinced Eagle Flies to take action against the military so I went to check on them after sending Charles to talk to the father of Eagle Flies about this, I rode to see what Dutch was up to.
Dutch confirmed no one was gonna be killed as they just planned to trap some military in the valley, then disarm them and remind them to leave these boys alone. Then Dutch asked for my help, so I was following him when he was carrying a basket of dynamites.
When Dutch was attaching dynamites to the trees, I was attaching the wire so we can stop the patrol when they reach the spot. We attached like 4-5 dynamites there.
Then we had to hurry as it was time for the military patrol to reach that spot. We ran to the boys up on the hill and we waited by the detonator. Arthur volunteered to detonate it as he didn't trust the others on this.
After waiting for a while, we noticed the patrol we were waiting for has arrived and I detonated the explosives with the command of Eagle Flies and, boom.
Only some trees were sacrificed for the moment, no human were injured in the explosion. Eagle Flies asked them to put their guns down but one of the soldiers said they're doing a mistake.
Dutch replied and said the soldiers were doing the mistake and asked them to take some humiliation and leave these boys alone. But someone from the soldiers side opened fire so we had to act along.
I shot most of them when they were below but some of them climbed up and got close to us so we had to shoot on this side.
When we were done shooting all the soldiers down, I started looting them and when I followed the others, my objective was to loot them as well.
Before I could loot all of them, Dutch asked if we found any information and Arthur said they were some poor fool from New Jersey, checking on one's ID.
Then suddenly someone shot us with a mortal, fortunately, none of us looked injured or dead.
We ran towards the hill and noticed there was another group of soldiers on that side and they were shooting the mortars. We had to shoot all of them.
Then we reached the mortar launcher and made sure there were none of them left to shoot us with more mortars.
Arthur noticed the soldiers were sending riders from the North so they should leave but Eagle Flies was looking for one of his men. Suddenly, another mortar landed close to Arthur and Dutch when they were like fighting over this messed up situation.
Here I'm finishing the post for today and I'll come talk about more special RDR 2 gaming moments in Gaming Photography.
