The riflemen come to visit two simpletons on behalf of the king. He asks them to fight for him, in exchange they have a free pass to do anything they want. Believing they will become rich, they agree and start rampaging the land. That’s the plot of Les Carabiniers, the rest happens. Mostly scenes of the simpletons as they rampage. Until they return to claim their treasures. There are probably hundreds of ways to interpret the scenes of the film. Its pretty standard Godard.
