Belina fires a shot but the barricade that protects her from the bandits also protects the bandits from her arrows. It would take more skill to fire through it. The closest tengu charges the lone eagle, a single slash of it's sword is all it takes to make sure the eagle does not bother the bandit.
The last bandit manages to free himself from the entanglement, he rides back to the others that are waiting at some trees. Probably to discuss what the next move should be.

Heveel: there are still plenty of tengu bandits watching the combat.
Timmon shoots a sling bullet, the bandit manages to pull his horse slightly to the side. That minor movement causes the sling bullet to miss, but it also steers him right into the path of Jinny's arrow!
Belina's arrow misses the bandit. The tengu moves his horse to the barricade and quickly climbs up. On top he draws his weapon and attacks Timmon! The bandit slashes wildly and completely misses the monk. In the distance you see some other bandits mount their horses.
You use the opportunity to get a good look at the approaching tengu, they are still some 400 feet away. It seems they are ready to galop towards the barricade!
Timmon, loading a heavy crossbow is a fullround action. Firing is another standard. You can take a move to slide down and a second move action to pick up your crossbow. Next round you can take a full round action to fully load the crossbow and can then fire it in the round after that.
@GM, how far are they? Horses move 50ft so even with a double move on their part I believe they're still within my second range increment (140-210 ft).
(Insert diatribe here about how Paizo needs to name range increments: I suggest "point blank", "short", "medium", "long", and "extreme" for the first five.)
Jinny, they took 2 run actions for 200 feet per round. See slide 5 for a schematic picture. I might be a few squares off where I put them on the map, but that is not that important.
Point blank is already a named range: within 30 feet, so short would be within first range increment, without modifiers.
Timmon scores a hit on the same bandit that was already hit by Jinny! Unfortunately Belina's shot misses.
One of the two middle Tengu Red starts chanting inspiring words to the others. The other Yellow chucks a flask at the barricade. Flames wash over the woodwork, starting a fire!

Seeing the bandits so close, Timmon drops his crossbow again and loads his sling. He whips it above his head and sends a stone flying toward the leftmost bandit.
Timmon whirls his swing and releases the stone just a fraction to late. Instead of hitting the tengu it veers of slightly to the right and misses. The two central tengu each throw an alchemist's fire at the barricade
Attack:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 Damage:1d6 ⇒ 5
Attack:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 Damage:1d6 ⇒ 6
The two other tengu dismount and try to climb the barricade, just besides the burning flames. Both manage to climb up and draw their curved swords.

Timmon leaves his sling dangling from the loop around his wrist and vaults up the barricade at its center. He advances carefully along the top toward the tengu drawing his dagger-like sai.
Which tengu you ask? If Heveel's wind blast worked, then Timmon goes south toward green. If it didn't, then Timmon goes north toward blue. I am assuming that the barricade is 5' high. T steps north 5', climbs barricade for 20' and has 5' left to dance along the top.
The blue-clad tengu's feathers struggle in Heveel's wind blast. The tengu wobbles on his feet but finally manages to keep standing. Jinny slashes over the green one's ankles and crow feet.
Timmon moves closer to the blueish one and tries to attack him. The burning flames under the monk's feet are a bit of a distraction and he misses the tengu.
The tengu in green armor attacks Jinny while the other attacks Timmon. Just at the moment their strikes would fall some farmers try to stick the tengu with their spears, completely disrupting the attacks! In the distance you notice four more riders coming your way....
Heveel starts another breeze, which ruffles the feathers of the tengu. Jinny knocks down her target with the pommel of her rapier. Belina shoots a magnificent shot at the tengu she wounded earlier, killing the crowman.
