I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 41 Giving advice

"Put down your weapons, surrender and you won't be killed." As soon as Alpha's words fell, it sounded like a voice of temptation in his ears.

This sentence seemed to have great magic power, causing the bandits to lay down their weapons one after another. However, many of them died from Bakuzan's shooting, and in the end, only 20 to 30 bandits surrendered.

"The heavily armored soldiers stay back, and the third team will rescue the wounded." Alpha didn't dare let Fattam and the others go too far forward. Although bow and arrow attacks were ineffective against heavily armored soldiers, stones could pose a huge threat to them.

"I'm going to kill them." Alice had just recovered and was about to kill the captives.

"No, I said you won't be killed if you surrender. You can't kill now." Alpha stopped Alice.

"You want to disobey my orders just because of a few bandits? Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you saved me." Alice looked at Alpha angrily.

"I said I won't kill those who surrender. If you kill them now, no bandits will surrender in the future." Alpha resolutely stopped him. If he killed the prisoners openly like this, I'm afraid no one would surrender in the future. The important thing is that he shouted it out himself. Even if he wanted to kill them, he had to kill them secretly.

"Alpha has deserted his post. Now our merits and demerits are offset. You may go back." As the queen, Alice would never allow others to disobey her orders, even if Alpha had just saved her.

"What, you want to disobey my orders?" Seeing Alpha indifferent, Alice seemed to lose her mind because of anger.

"I want these prisoners and the wounded." Alpha didn't care about the credit, he just wanted to do something meaningful.

"Take them all away." Alice understood that leaving these people behind would also be a burden.

"Lord Alpha, how could she do this? Isn't this just destroying the bridge after crossing it?" Rowling said indignantly beside Alpha.

Alpha didn't care. "It's okay. Let the prisoners take the wounded away. Bandage the seriously injured. Let Lina stay and take care of them. These wounded will be our treasures in the future."

"Lord Alpha, how could you do this? If you do this, they will look down on you in the future." Rowling has already regarded Alpha as her own man, so how could she let Alpha be treated like this.

"You and the first wave of wounded will go to the camp below to set up camp first." Alpha was still cleaning up the mess and didn't want to listen to Rowling's muttering. In this battle, Alice's casualties were probably particularly heavy.

Alice suffered heavy losses in this operation, and the final results showed that Alice and Tony lost about half of their 150 knights, leaving only 80 people, and only 60 of the 200 infantrymen on the western front were left. Alice now only had 80 cavalrymen and 60 infantrymen, and her ability to encircle and suppress the bandit camp was almost cut off.

Of course, this operation could not be said to be a complete failure, at least the outer wall was taken down, and about 200 bandits were wiped out. However, the bandits were basically infantry, so such a loss ratio was somewhat embarrassing.

"Captain Alpha, I'm very sorry. My sister is in a bad mood. She is not like this usually." Tony ran over and wanted to explain for Alice.

Alpha didn't care: "It's okay, we are all united in order to eliminate the bandits."

"Have you asked for help? When will the reinforcements arrive?" Alpha knew that the brother and sister must have their own channels and the lost cavalry could definitely be replenished.

"It's hard to say this time. It may not be completed all at once. Usually there are ten or eight knights, but this time it's close to seventy. As for the infantry, they will replenish us when we go to Qishan City. If it takes time, it will take at least two days." Tony explained the difficulties.

"Well, there are too many seriously injured people here. I will leave heavy armored cavalry and a team of medical soldiers to take care of them." Alpha has done his best.

"Thank you, Captain Alpha. I will never forget your kindness." Tony was unable to persuade his sister to let go of her prejudice, so he could only ask Alpha for help.

Alpha led the second, third and fifth teams to camp at the foot of the mountain for a day of rest before returning to their own camp.

However, during this period, Captain Tony came to ask for countermeasures, but it was impossible for Queen Alice to come to ask for help and admit her mistake.

……

"Sister, why do you always target Captain Alpha?" Tony immediately found Alice. If Alice was always such a sarcastic person, Tony would not ask at all, but Alice was not such a woman at all. In Tony's eyes, Alice was a well-educated and perfect woman.

"Do you know who he is to you?" Alice looked dissatisfied, as if Alpha had really offended her.

"Who is Lord Alpha?" Tony was confused. How could he have any connection with Alpha if he didn't even know him?

"I overheard that my father was planning to let Alpha marry into our family." Alice told the truth. If Alpha married into the family, then the siblings would have no status.

"No way! Sister Linda is not with Alpha!" Tony was shocked. Although Linda was high and mighty, she had no ill will towards Tony and his sister. Instead, she often took care of them, which made Tony very friendly to Sister Linda.

"I saw Linda and him staying in the same room for a long time before they came out. I don't know what method Alpha used to make Linda so infatuated with him." This is where Alice's malice came from.

"Captain Alpha is very reasonable. He took the initiative to let the Knights stay without me explaining anything this time. Even if Alpha really marries into our family, he won't target us!" Tony felt that Alpha should not be a mean person.

"You can never know a person's heart through his appearance. Who knows if he will target us after he joins the family?" Alice only heard half of the conversation and couldn't help but become suspicious, secretly calculating in her heart.

"Anyway, I don't believe it. Besides, he saved us. If Alpha can really be my brother-in-law, then I have no objection." Tony didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, a stranger suddenly became his brother-in-law. If you don't know him well, it will never be as reassuring as a familiar but not annoying person.

"It's up to you. I won't be nice to him anyway." Alice continued to do as she pleased.

……

"Lord Alpha, that Tony is here again." After hearing the announcement, Rowling ran in dissatisfied.

"Let's go and meet Tony!" Although he was dissatisfied, Alpha still gave Tony face.

"Teacher Tony, are you here to get your hair done?" Alpha suddenly asked after entering the tent.

"Brother Alpha, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Tony looked confused.

"Oh, I forgot that in our hometown Tony is usually called teacher. How come you have time to come to me? Have you completed your staff?" Alpha knew the situation of Tony's staff because they had to pass through Alpha's camp to go up the mountain.

"It's just some infantry that came. The cavalry isn't that fast?" Tony answered truthfully.

"Rowling, tell Fattam to cook some food for us." Alpha deliberately sent away Rowling, who had a stern face.

"Okay." Rowling agreed reluctantly.

"Brother-in-law, can you..."

"Wait, who is your brother-in-law?" Alpha interrupted Tony.

"You are my brother-in-law! Brother-in-law Alpha, I know everything. Grand Duke Houston has agreed to let you marry into our family. Linda is my sister. If you are not my brother-in-law, who are you?" Tony couldn't keep the secret and blurted it out.

"I didn't agree to marry into the Grand Duke's family!" Alpha knew that he would never admit that he had agreed to this matter. Didn't he want to save face? Didn't he mean that the Grand Duke finally refused?

"Impossible! Brother-in-law. How could you reject the Grand Duke? Isn't my sister very sad?" Tony looked at Alpha in confusion. How could anyone reject the decision of a Grand Duke and reject the fairy-like sister Linda?

"I rejected the Archduke's kindness, but I don't intend to reject Linda's love. I would be very happy if you are willing to call me brother-in-law. Of course, this is only between the two of us. Remember not to tell anyone, otherwise it will put Linda in an embarrassing situation." Since the two have not announced their relationship, it must be kept strictly confidential.

"Brother-in-law, you are so awesome. You rejected the Grand Duke's request and even got his special approval." Tony always obeyed his father's words and dared not disobey him in the slightest.

"Stop, stop! It's better for you to just tell me the purpose of your trip." Alpha interrupted Tony's flattery of him. As the sky was getting dark, any further procrastination would waste a lot of time.

"Brother-in-law, do you have any way to break into the bandit camp? I'm afraid that the night will be too long and there will be more trouble. My sister thinks about this matter every day and her hair has turned white with worry." Tony kept begging while pulling Alpha's arm.

"Will your sister let me stay?" Alpha didn't want to put his face in the cold butt now.

"Ah! My sister is just afraid that you will treat us badly after you marry into our family, and she is also unhappy with you for taking Linda's sister away." Now the first point has been resolved, but the second point is still a dead end.

"How about I tell you what your sister likes most? What does she hate? You should catch up with your sister!" Tony is very afraid of his sister, so it would be a good choice if Alpha caught up with her.

"Go away, aren't you afraid that your sister will beat you to death? I, a pig, have already dug up a cabbage, do you want me to dig up another one?" Alpha felt funny. He didn't expect Tony to have such an idea.

"If you don't tell me, I'll tell you. I like eating tomatoes and small animals, such as cats and dogs, but I never tell anyone else about it. I like to put cucumbers on my face before going to bed at night."

"Wait, wait, who wants your sister's hobby? Let's get to the point." Alpha was almost led astray, but the thought of the cold beauty holding the kitten made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Since your sister won't let me go, the counterattack plan must wait for a few days. We can implement it after the personnel are almost recovered." Alpha seemed to have a plan.

"What plan, brother-in-law?" Tony was very concerned about Alpha's plan.

"Fire attack!" After yesterday's battle, Alpha had already considered how to capture the inner city. If Alice hadn't attacked the outer city, Alpha wouldn't have known what was going on inside, which showed that Alice's attack was also of great significance.

"Fire attack? We also used fire attack last time, but it didn't work and we were ambushed." Tony is still afraid of fire attack.

"Well, it's okay. You can start now. The first step is to build a passage close to the inner city wall to prevent arrows and falling rocks from above. The second step is to light a fire under the inner city wall. Remember not to use an open flame, but use smoke. The third step is to build a simple catapult and throw the flammable and explosive kerosene and poisonous smoke into it.

Don't rush to attack the city, smoke them for a few days first, then at dawn, climb the city wall, remember to occupy the commanding heights and the city gates first, don't rush to attack the bandits. "It would be even better if there was explosives. According to this era, the East should have had gunpowder a long time ago, and it was also introduced to the West, and it was not much weaker than the East, but Alpha did not see the appearance of gunpowder.

"Brother-in-law, I'll write it down. Is there anything else we should pay attention to?" Tony was eating the barbecue brought by Rowling while recording Alpha's countermeasures.

"The weather is very cold now, and there shouldn't be much water on the mountain. You can throw some powder on the icebergs on both sides to create a water crisis for the enemy. Now we are worried that there is an inner city above. And no matter what, once you are discovered, retreat immediately, and remember not to fight hard." What Alpha fears most now is that there are three or four layers of inner city, which would be endless.

"Okay, now we get water from melted ice and snow, and there shouldn't be too much reserve. As long as we pollute the water source, we can take down the thieves' camp without attacking." Tony found another plan.

"Brother-in-law, the barbecue is delicious. Can I take some back to my sister?" Tony was not polite at all as he ate and took some.

"I'll ask Rowling to get you some."

"No need, I'll get it from the kitchen myself." Tony ran straight to the kitchen, where there was barbecue, fruit, and bread.

"Brother-in-law, you have a good quality of life. I'll take the things with me." Tony carried the big and small bags on his back.

"Lord Alpha, what brother-in-law?" Even Fattam came over, not to mention the curious Rowling.

"You heard it wrong. There is no such thing as a brother-in-law?" Alpha deliberately played dumb.

"I remember Captain Tony called Alice sister. Lord Alpha, you can win over Tony with just one meal. Let him act as a matchmaker and introduce Alice to you!" Rowling's imagination is really amazing. She actually came up with this idea.

"Go, get me something to eat." Alpha pushed away Rowling who was guessing blindly, and pulled Fattam into the tent.

"It's not even dark yet, and you're already being shameless again." Rowling glared at Alpha, but there was nothing she could do.

……

"Is this the strategy he provided for you? I think it's nothing special." Alice looked at the notebook Tony brought back and didn't find anything special about it.

"Sister, you are asking too much of your brother-in-law. As long as we study these methods thoroughly, it will not be difficult to take down the bandit camp." Tony, who has received higher education, can naturally see the feasibility of the strategy.

"Can you please stop calling him brother-in-law? It always feels weird." Alice noticed that Tony looked at her with something strange in his eyes.

"Sister, do you know that your brother-in-law never agreed to father's request to marry into our family?" Tony did it on purpose.

"Impossible, no one can refuse such a good thing. It's not only fame and fortune, but also the company of a beautiful woman." Alice couldn't believe that Alpha would refuse such a good thing.

"Really? You'll know when you go back and ask. My brother-in-law has no reason to lie to me." Tony also knew that he only needed to ask his mother to tell the truth.

"If he doesn't marry into the family, how can he marry Sister Linda?" Alice thought. With Alpha's ability, if Alpha doesn't marry into the family, her father will definitely not agree to this marriage.

"That's exactly what shows my brother-in-law's ability! He rejected my father's request, but successfully won Linda's heart, and my father didn't object." Tony couldn't imagine how this was possible.

"If that's true, wouldn't you be able to inherit the throne of Grand Duke?" At this moment, Alice suddenly felt that Alpha was not so annoying after all.

"Sister, this is the fruit snack he prepared for you. It's much better than the ones we made at home."

"Go away. Who brings a cook to a war? He must be some playboy." Alice then felt that Alpha was not attractive anymore.

"If you don't want to eat it, forget it. I'll take it!" Tony held out his hand before he finished speaking. Unexpectedly, Ellie showed no mercy and kicked Tony out of the room.

"I wouldn't give it to you, even if I had to feed it to a dog!" Alice couldn't help but feel a little regretful after she said that. After all, she was going to enjoy the food herself.

"Then let's feed the remaining ones to the dogs!" Alice picked out all the scraps.
