I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 23 The Leader's Plan

Linda suddenly fell silent. She knew that Alpha was right. Although she had been working hard to train herself and hoped to become the best female knight, she also knew that impulsive emotions would not solve the problem when facing the pursuit of thieves.

"So, what should we do?" Linda asked.

"We need to calmly analyze the situation and work out a feasible plan."

Alpha replied, "First, we need to find a way to get rid of their pursuit, return to the town immediately, and settle these women. Then, we can gather strength and prepare for a counterattack." In fact, Alpha just wanted to return to a safe area, and whoever went afterwards would do it. At least Alpha would not go for an action that was too risky.

After hearing this plan, Linda thought it made sense, so she stopped making trouble and started to act according to Will's plan.

"Fatham, let's go back and rest. There's still a long time until dawn."

"Does it hurt, Fatam?" Alpha looked at the bruises on Fatam's back and asked with some heartache.

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Fattam simply cleaned his clothes and jumped into bed.

"Fatham, why did you choose a heavy warrior?" Zhang Mo's fusion with Alpha's consciousness was not complete, and many things were vague. He didn't know the origins of Lina and Fatham. Alpha also got into Fatham's bed and hugged the tense woman from behind.

"I have no choice. Captain Mars chose me because I was born with supernatural powers. If I were not a heavy warrior, I'm afraid Captain Mars would not have chosen me to be your attendant." Seeing that Alpha did not make any other moves, Fattam pushed his body backwards to eliminate the gap in the middle and keep the quilt warm.

"Do you like heavy fighters? If not, I can choose someone else, and you can just be my logistics captain." Alpha caressed Fattam's back lovingly, making Fattam's whole body tense again.

"It's all the same, actually. The heavy warrior suits me very well. I don't need to think too much. I just need to push the enemy back." Fattam didn't want to think too much, but this profession was too dangerous.

"Well, this time we're going to a big city to rebuild a high-level armor for you. At least we need to add some lining. The heavy armor you have now is all for training." Alpha stood up and checked Fattam's armor. It could protect against attacks from swords and guns, but it had very little effect against being hit by heavy weapons.

"Lord Alpha, high-level armor is too expensive. Next time I will just wear a few more clothes under the armor." As the person in charge of logistics, Fattam also knew that Alpha did not have much money.

"We made a lot of money in this operation. It would be a waste to keep it. I feel bad for hurting you.

And this set of armor, Fattam, you have worn for several years, and Fattam has grown up, so it is a little small and can’t fit more clothes.” Alpha gestured, it’s not that Fattam didn’t want to wear more clothes, but the armor was too small.

"Lord Alpha, I'm not going to pay attention to you." Fattam looked at Alpha who was staring at his chest and gesturing, and he hid in the bed immediately out of shame.

"Lord Alpha, it's cold outside, but it's warm in bed." Fattam saw that Alpha hadn't moved, so he stuck his head out a little worriedly.

"I wonder how many people will be able to walk out alive tomorrow?" Alpha crawled into Fattam's bed again.

"Lord Alpha, this isn't possible." Fattam tried to stop Alpha's dishonest hands.

"Fatam doesn't like me?" Alpha stopped what he was doing.

"No, Lord Alpha, I can't do it today. I'm having my period." Fattam shyly hid in Alpha's arms.

"Well, let's go to sleep! There will be a big battle tomorrow." Alpha hugged the woman tightly in his arms, but his heart was burning with desire.

Lina was running around outside, as if she wanted to expose all the crimes of the bandits. I'm afraid she won't come back at night. Ham was too young, and Alpha couldn't help but take action.

Alpha didn't know that the women out there were trying all sorts of ways to seduce men, hoping to seek shelter. If Alpha went out alone, he would never come back. But Alpha didn't want to move at all, not even to go to the bathroom.

……

"Brother Alpha, take Linda and these women and go first. We will set fire to the village in an hour and then catch up with you." Will and his team of ten stayed in the village to make final preparations.

"Okay, we will make a detour and try not to come into contact with the bandits." Alpha left ten people to protect Linda's carriage, and he took ten people to guard the surrounding area to prevent anyone from seeing it.

"Lord Alpha, there are about a dozen women who have not left and are hiding in the dungeon." Before leaving, the two thin women came running to report the news.

"Forget it. Everyone has their own aspirations. Don't worry about them. When we encounter a battle, let them try to take away the enemy's long weapons." Faced with a group of women who had not received any training, the knight's long sword was not suitable for them in terms of weight and difficulty of using.

"Yes, sir." The two women followed the team with some disappointment.

"Lord Alpha, they want to go out with us." Fattam next to them saw the intentions of the two women.

"There's no other way. If they take him in, they'll be unhappy." Alpha was also a little embarrassed. There was still room for several people to sit in the carriage, and it wouldn't be a problem if ten or so people squeezed in. But if that happened, it would make others feel unfair and resentful.

"Knight Alpha, there is a team approaching us on the right." Will handed over the command here to Alpha, and the sentry immediately passed the information back.

"Lina, tell everyone to turn off the engines, stop moving, and form a defensive formation." Alpha gave the instructions and followed the sentry out of the team.

"How many people are there? Are you sure who they are? Knights or bandits?" Alpha knew that the possibility of them being knights was very slim, but he still hoped for a chance.

"There are about twenty people, they look like robbers, but it's too far away to see clearly." The sentry just looked at the fire from a distance and did not find any special signs.

"Let's change into bandits' clothes, light torches, and welcome them." Alpha only brought ten people with him, so it might be difficult to encircle and wipe out all of them. The only way to achieve victory is to use a surprise attack.

"You two stand here and make the tripwires, and the rest of you follow me." There were only eight knights left.

"Remember to follow my orders. Kill as many people as possible in the first wave, then pretend to be defeated and lure them over. Don't let any one escape. Everyone must survive." Alpha didn't want to make unnecessary sacrifices, otherwise he could just fight the enemy head-on.

"Okay, Master Alpha."

"Now I am the leader, remember I am the leader Alpha." Alpha did not shy away from his name. There were countless thieves in this area, and who knew which thief gang Alpha belonged to.

"Stop immediately. Which gang are you from? Otherwise we will attack." Alpha maintained a constant speed and approached the team in front.

"We are from the Truss Thieves' Gang. Which gang are you from?" The other party thought that it was a gang of thieves coming to greet them, so they were not too alert.

"We are from the Alpha Thieves Group. What are you doing here?" Alpha was still moving at a constant speed, but the team had begun to disperse.

"We are here to accept an invitation. Alpha Thieves Gang? How come we have never heard of it? Isn't this the territory of Cruz Thieves Gang?" The other party was still not too alert. After all, it was normal for thieves gangs to change leaders every day here. However, Cruz was a big thieves gang, and it would be very difficult to destroy it.

"They are not" Someone saw the knight's armor under Alpha's coat, but unfortunately his head had been separated. Everyone saw Alpha's action and immediately received the signal. In an instant, five people were cut down by the sword.

"It's a knight, fight back immediately." The leader realized something was wrong and immediately stepped back and drew his sword to fight back. At this time, ten bandits had already fallen off their horses, and it was unknown whether they were dead or alive.

"Kill." Unexpectedly, there were still ten thieves hiding around. Even if he killed ten of them, there were still twenty left on the scene, which made Alpha a little embarrassed. After a brief entanglement, before the enemy reinforcements arrived, Alpha led the team to evacuate the battle.

"Kill." The thief leader chased relentlessly, speeding up desperately.

"Disperse." Just two or three hundred meters passed in a flash, and the Knights immediately separated, but they were only a dozen meters apart. The Thieves followed closely behind, but did not separate.

"Pull." Seeing the group of thieves approaching, the two knights in ambush immediately tightened the lasso.

Bang, bang, bang. Because of the trip rope, the horse in front fell down instantly, and the horses behind followed suit without much time, and only stopped when they reached the third row.

"Kill." This time it was the turn of the Alpha team to kill the enemy. The only thieves who were intact were the seven or eight at the back. Alpha charged at them and the spear pierced their bodies. Only two of them escaped.

"You stay and kill them to reduce casualties. Just surround and kill them. I will chase the ones who escape." There were two others who saw that the situation was not right and ran away immediately. Alpha's Chase Wind was faster and eliminated the two bandits at a distance of several hundred meters.

There was not much suspense in the battle afterwards. The bandits who lost their horses were lambs to be slaughtered by the knights. If Alpha had not requested to minimize casualties, the battle would have ended long ago.

"Surrender and you won't be killed." Alpha shouted immediately when there were still ten thieves surrounded. But before the other thieves could react, Alpha killed two more.

"I surrender, I surrender." The remaining eight bandits were all frightened and dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy.

"Tie them up and take them away to clean up the battlefield." There were only a dozen horses left, and two of them had fallen down, obviously with injured legs.

"Who among you can ride a horse?" The bandits' war horses are all grassland horses. They are docile, have good endurance and adaptability, but are slow, making them suitable for these women.

"I can." Three or five people stood up, including the two thin women.

"Hold your weapons, each of you will lead ten teams now, follow me." Thirty weapons can arm a lot of women. Although the combat power is not much, sometimes numbers determine everything. Even if it is a mob.

……

Will led a team of ten people and set the entire village on fire. Thick smoke rose into the sky, and they hurried towards the place agreed by Alpha.

Suddenly, there was the sound of horse hooves. They raised their weapons vigilantly and saw a vanguard of twenty bandits appear in their sight.

"It's a gang of thieves! They're here so soon!" exclaimed a team member.

Will immediately ordered everyone to leave quickly. Everyone had two horses and did not know how to conserve their energy at all.

The robbers saw the clothes and weapons of Will and his companions and immediately understood what was going on. They burst into laughter, raised their weapons, and chased after Will and his companions.

Although Will and his team were well-trained knights, they still felt a little overwhelmed when facing a bandit group that was several times larger than them and better equipped. Will kept ordering his team members to attack the bandits' formation, and relied on their speed to escape the bandits' encirclement.

"Hunting them down, don't let any of them go." Looking at the burning camp, the leader of the Truss bandit group roared angrily. The bandit group without a camp was waiting for death in this snowy city.

A bandit group of about 100 people followed closely behind, but the speed of these grassland horses was not as fast as the knights' war horses, not to mention that the knights were only two horses each, so it was almost impossible to catch up. However, in order to fulfill the leader's order, 50 people still followed from a distance.

Captain Will led everyone around in a big circle, and finally caught up with the large group in front under the first rays of dawn.

"Captain Will, there are bandits chasing us!" the team member in charge of covering the rear shouted loudly at this time.

"Keep your distance and try not to let them catch up!" Will ordered, speeding up his pace.

Will didn't know that he had already made a circle, but the other party was too slow and was caught up by him on the way back, so he had already made a circle in vain.

However, as time went on, the robbers did not give up the pursuit, but gradually narrowed the distance with Will and others. After all, there are still women in the team now, which seriously affects the speed. If this continues, it is only a matter of time before they are caught up.

Will frowned, he knew that this chase couldn't last too long, otherwise they would be in great danger. If there was a blockade in front and they were attacked from both sides, it would be a disaster for the Knights.

Suddenly, Will came up with an idea: "Listen everyone, we can use the surrounding terrain to escape the pursuit of the robbers.

There is a rugged mountain pass not far ahead. The terrain there is narrow. We can use the mountain and narrow terrain there to resist the bandits' fighting power."

When the team members heard Will's words, they nodded in agreement and quickened their pace.

Soon, they arrived at the mountain pass. Will ordered his team members to dismount quickly and begin to use the terrain at the mountain pass to build a defense line, with Fattam leading thirty women in the front.

At the same time, Will sent out an elite team to ambush on the hillsides on both sides of the mountain pass. A large number of women also went up the mountain to prepare to ambush the bandits. These women were capable of doing this kind of job of moving stones and hitting people.

Alpha, with a team of ten people, had already disappeared into the team, apparently having important matters to deal with.

When the bandits chased to the mountain pass, they were stubbornly blocked by Will and others. The terrain at the mountain pass was narrow, and it was difficult for the bandits to deploy a large force, so they could only charge one by one.

Will and his men took advantage of the terrain and continuously attacked the bandits' flanks, putting them in a passive situation. The elite teams on the hillsides on both sides also began to attack, and their sudden attack threw the bandits into complete chaos.

The robbers began to flee, and Will and his men took the opportunity to launch a counterattack. The thieves behind them wanted to escape, but the Alpha team suddenly attacked and instantly became the last straw that broke the camel's back for the thieves.

"Surrender and you won't be killed. Surrender and you won't be killed." This is Alpha's signature move.
