Red Dead Redemption: Western Consortium

Horseshoe Lookout.

John was in a bad mood.

Because Abigail always kept trying to persuade him to leave the gang and join David, but John also avoided this problem and did not give a positive response.

In fact, it's not that John doesn't want to live with David, but that he feels sorry for the gang.

John had already left the gang for a year before, perhaps because he suddenly became a father, or perhaps because he felt that little Jack was not his child.

Although it belongs to modern society, the technology of paternity testing has not yet been invented, and little Jack's blond hair makes John feel uncomfortable, so he chooses to escape.

Arthur had a lot of objections to this. When John just came back, he didn't give him a good look. He thought John was betraying the gang.

Although John still returned to the gang, it was obvious that during this period, everyone in the gang had some objections to his previous departure without saying goodbye.

"John, how long do you want me to wait? Little Jack is already five years old. He needs to go to school, like other children."

"Do you want little Jack to be like you and grow up to become a cowboy and live the same life of gang robbery?"

"It's time for us to make a choice, John."

In the small tent at night, after little Jack fell asleep, Abigail whispered.

John sounded a little irritated and simply turned away.

"So, John, you want me to take little Jack and leave directly, right?" Abigail said directly when she saw this.

John didn't expect Abigail to say that, so he had to turn around and said, "Abigail, please give me some more time."

"I left the gang for so long, and now I have just come back, but I have to leave again. How do you want Arthur and others to see me? They will no longer treat me as a friend."

"Even...even if I have to leave, I should do something for the gang first."

"Listen, Abigail, uncle told me about the train before, and Mary Beth overheard a train full of rich people heading to Scarlett Meadows, right in the state. South of the border."

"At night, the defense is not tight, it is perfect. I have thought of a way to force this train to stop."

"I will follow Arthur and get things done this time. This is worthy of the gang."

"After that... find a chance and let's go to David's place, okay, Abigail."

Although Abigail really wanted John to stop committing robberies, there was obviously no way to avoid this incident.

"John, promise me, this is the last time."

John was silent for a moment before saying: "Okay, Abigail, I promise you, we will leave after this job is done."

After receiving a positive answer, Abigail hugged John tightly.

The next day, John found Arthur and expressed his thoughts.

"Arthur, regarding the train, I have a plan..."

"John, I think your plan is much more reliable than Dutch."

Arthur was initially reluctant to go, but after hearing John's plan, he immediately agreed.

Then, the two went to rob one or two oil carriages. After setting them on fire, they successfully forced the train to stop, and the robbery went very smoothly.

It's just that the oil carriage that appeared in New Hanover could belong to who else but Cornwall.

Cornwall came to New Hanover from the civilized cities in the east. Of course, he didn't come here because of dealing with the Van der Linde gang. It was just incidental.

He got information that there was an oil field in Wapiti on the Indian reservation.

Every oil field heralds astonishing wealth. In order to ensure the accuracy of the news, Cornwall chose to come over in person.

The next day, news reached the Cornwall Coal Tar Works that oil wagons had been robbed, and trains were being robbed again.

After receiving the news, Cornwall roared angrily:

"Damn the Van der Linde gang, why do you always go against me, rob my train, and now you rob my carriage? After a while, you won't even let go of my factory."

"Damn guys, you're pissing me off, pissing off a tycoon."

"The stupid Pinkerton detectives are a bunch of rubbish. It's been so long and we still can't get rid of them..."

Even though there is no evidence yet to prove that the Van der Linde Gang did all this, in Cornwall's view, only the Van der Linde Gang would do such a thing.

Two oil trucks were nothing to him, but this kind of thing that seemed to be staring at him and robbing him made him feel a little aggrieved.

He had received information before that the Van der Linde Gang was lurking here in New Hanover, and one of its members, named David Callander, was in Valentine.

Originally, Cornwall wrote a letter to Valentine Township Sheriff Malloy, hoping that he could capture David and hand him over.

But Sheriff Malloy directly rejected his proposal and told him that David was no longer with the Vanderlinde Gang, but had obtained legal status in Valentine.

In response, Cornish prepared to go to Valentine to meet this David Callander.
