Geothermal Valley - Occupied Village Middle Level (Part 2)

The stack of crates on your left should shield you from the 2 men by the fire. Watch the hillside ahead and when the single soldier patrolling there moves to the right...

...kill him with a silent headshot.

Then lean out around the crates and take out the 2 men by the fire with one poison arrow.

Cough! Choke!

Lara is not bound by Trinity's treasure-reporting guidelines, so feel free to take the pile of gold coins on the table.

Loot the bodies except for the man on the hillside. Approaching him will trigger the appearance of another enemy from the north side of the village. He's pretty sharp and tends to holler when he sees Lara, so we'll deal with him later.

NOTE: If any of the men spots Lara and yells out a warning, this enemy will appear sooner and come toward you wherever you may be.

For now, head back to the west between the cabins.

Move quietly as you approach the 2 armored men under the wooden shelter.

If you act quickly, you can kill them both with one poison arrow—or simultaneous headshots if you've unlocked the Double Shot and True Shot skills. Coupled with the Finesse skill, this chain of stealth kills will earn you mucho XP. Otherwise, wait until the man on the right wanders away, kill him with a headshot, and then take out his partner.
