I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 104: Riot in the City

"I found you, the hiding and sneaky guy." Ferta smiled evilly, suddenly jumped up, punched through the roof, and pulled the woman on the roof down.

"Looks like I have to exercise properly tonight." The woman was pretty, and Philta became agitated and planned to enjoy herself.

"Our people have occupied key locations throughout the city. You will definitely lose." The woman struggled to get up, but had no intention of leaving. Her mission was to delay Ferta to buy time, even at the cost of her own body.

"Wait until I've had enough fun with you, then I'll deal with them." Ferta tore off the woman's clothes, revealing her flawless white skin.

"They gave you to me on purpose." Looking at the woman's eyes, Ferta calmed down instantly.

"Lord Ferta, the prison has been lost and they have released all the criminals." The sudden news made Ferta a little worried.

"What on earth do you want to do? Those people are diehard fans of Portos. Even if you control the army, you can't govern yourself." Ferta had cleansed the army before, and all the absolute diehards were eliminated. Now they are all imprisoned in prison, ready to be executed tomorrow.

Ferta knew that once these people were allowed to fight their way out, the four legions outside would probably be out of control, and the situation would then be really hard to control.

"Kill them all. Leave no one alive." Ferta put on his armor and took his personal guards with him, intending to kill these death row prisoners.

"Captain Talos, we meet again." Taking advantage of the riot in the city, Alpha successfully opened the prison door and met Captain Talos.

"It's you, why did you save me?" Talos didn't expect that the one who saved him was the young man in front of him. In fact, the two were not familiar with each other, and had only met a few times, which made Talos doubt the other party's true purpose.

"I'm returning a favor to you. Also, I received news that Knight Commander Ferta is a spy of the Fatalia Empire, and the city lord is also their puppet. Everything is a conspiracy of the Fatalia Empire, and they want to kill all those who resist." Alpha explained simply.

"What evidence?" Before this, Talos would definitely be the first to stand up and refute, but now, after all this, coupled with the fact that so many of his colleagues in prison suddenly disappeared and are now here, Talos has to doubt Ferta's true purpose.

"Not for now, but whether you believe it or not, I hope you will come to manage the city of Balor. Now the warriors and dark knights outside are killing and burning everywhere, and no one cares." Things have exceeded Alpha's expectations.

I didn't expect there were so many forces lurking in the city. The Republican Army, the Samurai, the Black Knights, and my own forces, but the only thing missing was Balor's City Guards.

"What? There's riot in the city? There's no army to clean it up." Talos was shocked. At this moment, Talos knew that Alpha's suspicion was indeed accurate.

"Take me out." Talos no longer hesitated. It was vital to protect the people in the city now.

"Lord Alpha, take them out as well." Talos pointed at his former colleagues.

"I leave this to you. Let's fight our way out." Alpha threw the key and the long knife to Talos.

Alpha led a small group of knights to break out of the prison and head out of the city, while Talos led his colleagues to contact the city guards to protect the people in the city.

When everyone stepped out of the prison, they were stunned by the scene before them: the streets were littered with the bodies of warriors and knights, and the city had become a ruin. Talos had never thought that the city of Balor would be caught in a war.

"It seems that the war outside has been going on for quite a long time." said a knight.

"We must quickly find the people in the city and protect them. We cannot let them suffer from the destruction of the dark forces again." Talos said and led his colleagues into the city.

Along the way, they were constantly attacked by warriors and black knights. Although they fought bravely, they were outnumbered and their weapons and equipment were inferior to those of the enemy. If it weren't for the regular knights like Alpha leading the charge, they would never have gotten here.

However, Talos and others had high military literacy, and Talos used the terrain and tactical details to successfully escape the enemy's pursuit.

At this moment, a knight ran over and told Talos that a large group of black knights were approaching them. Talos immediately realized that this was an ambush trap, and he and his colleagues quickly prepared for battle.

"Talos, I know you are here, don't hide, come out!" Unexpectedly, Ferta was blocking the way. There was no way to escape from this situation.

"Master Knight Ferta, you are also from the Kingdom of Portos. Why do you want to betray the Empire and Portos?" Talos walked out of the ruins, along with those persecuted knights.

"You are the real betrayers. I led people to quell the rebellion." Ferta was not prepared to tell the truth.

"Lord Ferta, this is the last time I call you Lord. Why did you betray the empire and kill innocent people?" Looking at the killing everywhere, Talos was furious.

"They are innocent, but what about me? All 413 members of my family were killed overnight. What did we do wrong? Do we deserve to die? You are all accomplices, and I will not let any of you go." Ferta's face showed ferocity, and he was obviously no longer trying to hide it.

"Firta, this is your personal grudge. You vent your anger on innocent people. What kind of knight are you?" Talos still wanted to persuade him to let those people go.

"Anyone from this country is an accomplice, and I won't let any of them go." Ferta stopped talking and drew out his sword to kill the enemy.

"Let me tell you, all the city guards are outside the city. If you want to contact the city guards, you must rush past me." Ferta did this on purpose, with the intention of killing all the enemies in front of him.

The battle between Ferta and Talos entered a fierce stage. Although Talos and his knight teammates had strong fighting qualities, they were facing the Black Knights led by Ferta, and the gap in weapons and equipment was too large. Suddenly, a sharp arrow whistled towards Talos, and Talos dodged quickly, watching the two knights being shot and falling to the ground.

"Damn it!" Talos roared angrily. He knew that he had to find a way to deal with the crisis. Talos prayed silently in his heart, hoping to find a breakthrough and win the battle.

At this moment, Talos saw a squad of knights led by Alpha go around the flank of the Black Knights and charge, while Talos led the other knights to charge towards the front of the Black Knights, besieging them.

All of these Black Knights were formed in imitation of the Black Knights of the Fatalia Empire, but their personnel and weapons and equipment are not as good as the original Black Knights.

After a fierce battle, the Black Knights were finally driven back. Talos and Alpha counted the survivors and found that several knights had been killed. Talos was in a heavy mood, but they knew they had to move on to find more city guards to protect the people in the city.

Talos and Alpha led the surviving knights to move forward. At this time, a flare rose into the sky, and Talos and Alpha immediately moved towards the direction of the flare.

"There are enemies ahead. Lay down your weapons and surrender, otherwise you will be killed without mercy." Just as they were about to reach the city gate, a group of knights blocked their way.

"Finally I found you!" Talos shouted excitedly. A familiar face appeared in front of him - the commander of the city guards, with whom Talos had fought side by side.

"I am Captain Talos of the Third Guard of the City Guard. There is a riot in the city now. I order you to follow me into the city immediately to protect the people!" Talos was still concerned about the people.

"Talos has been imprisoned by Knight Commander Ferta. He escaped from prison. Lay down your weapons and surrender immediately." The officer on the city gate turned out to be an acquaintance, Torres, a staunch supporter of Ferta.

"No matter who gave the order, there is a riot in the city now. As knights, we must stand up to protect the people!" Talos tried to persuade the Knights at the City Gate regardless of his personal honor.

"If you still have a conscience and are still a knight, then follow me into battle and kill all the rioters who are massacring the people." Talos's call successfully shook these knights who still had a conscience.

"Knight Commander Ferta is a spy of the Fatalia Empire. You are all knights loyal to the empire and you are all secretly imprisoned by him." Talos' explanation made most people waver again.

"Open the city gate and let the city guards in to quell the rebellion!" Talos shouted.

"He is the enemy," but before Toles could finish his shout, an arrow had already shot into his forehead. It turned out that the Alpha Squad had separated from the Ferta Black Knights and was moving quickly towards this side.

"Get out of the way, or I'll kill you without mercy."

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" The city guards did not want to attack Talos and others, but when faced with the knights who arrived later, they attacked without mercy.

"Kill!" However, this enemy force of thirty people far exceeded the expectations of the city guards. After just one encounter, some of them died and some were injured. No one could get within ten meters of the Alpha Knights.

"Open the door!" Fattam's brute strength seemed to have increased again, and he easily moved the thousand-pound bolt.

"Captain Talos, do you need our support?" Guided by the signal flares, Alpha's Black Armor Knights were approaching the city of Balor. Alpha could rush into the city at any time to support Talos and others.

"No need, let us handle the riots in the city ourselves." Although Alpha saved Talos and others, Talos still had doubts about him, fearing that Alpha had other intentions.

"Okay, I'm five miles outside the city. Contact me anytime if you need support." Alpha's goal was only to replace the leader of Balor City with one who was not hostile to him, and he did not want to intervene directly.

What's more, the situation in the city is very complicated. There are city guards, black-armored knights, samurai groups, Republican Army, and robbers and bandits who take advantage of the chaos to rob. Everything is a mess, and no one can tell who is the enemy and who is the friend.

"Okay, if I can't defeat you, I will ask for your support." Talos didn't dare to guarantee that he could quell the riot.

……

"No matter who you serve under or who gives you orders, you must remember that you are knights and soldiers, and it is your duty to defend your country."

Talos turned around and glanced at his soldiers, and said loudly, "There is unrest in the city now, and the people are being abused by the mob. The most urgent task is to protect the people, fight against the mob, and restore peace to the people. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" Everyone answered in unison, and the volume that resounded through the sky was filled with endless determination and courage.

"Then prepare for battle!" Talos' prestige in the army finally came into play, and it didn't take long for him to successfully integrate the three thousand knights outside the city.

Of course, more reasons were due to the captains of the Knights of Justice brought by Talos. These people were the backbone of the city guards before, and now that they were rescued, most of the knights changed their attitudes.

"Defend the country and quell rebellion."

"Enemy cavalry is attacking, please be careful!" Just after entering the city, a scout hurriedly ran to Talos and shouted loudly.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!" Talos immediately gave the order, pointing the spear in his hand forward and shouting, "Spearmen, move forward!"

Talos and his spearmen were the first to rush to the front line. They put their spears on their shoulders and the whole team rushed straight into the enemy cavalry camp like a sharp arrow.

In order to deal with this traditional knight team, the enemy also sent out its own spear team. The two teams collided fiercely in the center of the battlefield, sparks flew, and the knights' fighting skills and courage were perfectly demonstrated.

With Talos's continuous command, other brave knights gradually gained the upper hand. They bravely moved forward and fought the enemy fearlessly. After three hours of fighting, the enemy was finally defeated.

"We won, we won!" Talos couldn't help but smile amid the knights' cheers. He felt that he had not been so happy for a long time.

"Sir, there is a group of black-armored cavalrymen, numbering three hundred, five hundred warriors, and five hundred black cavalrymen appearing behind us. A cavalry regiment of more than a thousand people is approaching us from the side." Suddenly, the city guards discovered that they were facing a powerful enemy and seemed a little panicked.

It turned out that the three hours of fierce fighting only dealt with the people who took advantage of the chaos to rob and commit crimes in the city. These people were the army that Ferta had prepared to massacre the city. Now the remaining two cavalry regiments were the real enemies. The black armored cavalry was invincible, and the Republican Army was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which gave Talos a headache.

"Captain Talos, the cavalry regiment on the flank is from the Republican Army. They advocate equality, freedom and the supremacy of the Republic. They want to overthrow the rule of the monarchy and let the common people run the country. In their view, national affairs and international disputes are no longer monopolized by royal aristocrats, but are jointly participated in and decided by the entire people. The black-armored knights in the rear are the strongest legion in Fatalia. How come they appear in the city? Is Lord Ferta really an enemy spy?" A knight captain explained, his tone full of fear.

"This is simply nonsense! With a bunch of peasants in power, won't the country be in chaos? Do these fools know what national affairs are and what international disputes are?" Talos's anger was evident in his words.

"Captain Talos, the Republican Army has sent someone to contact us." Suddenly, a knight quickly broke away from the Republican Army and approached the City Guards.
