I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 56: Besieging the Enemy Village

"It's just to separate them so that they can't see what's happening outside." Alpha suddenly said something that made everyone feel a little puzzled.

"Lord Alpha, what do you mean? This is a big mountain, how is this possible?" Rowling asked curiously.

"We can use some means to isolate the enemy's stronghold from the outside world, so that they cannot observe the situation outside." Alpha explained the first step of the plan.

"How is this possible?" Bach's mind was working at high speed, but he couldn't think of any solution to the problem.

"Let me think about it again. Actually, we can consider using fire." Suddenly, Alpha thought of a solution.

"No, I think smoking is better." Alpha said to himself.

"Use smoke to block the enemy's vision." Rowling reacted quickly and understood Alpha's intention instantly.

"Even so, it's difficult to transport the catapult to the top of the mountain." Will frowned, considering the actual difficulty of the operation.

"We can build a few real ones on the mountainside, and the others are just for show. I don't plan to attack here directly." Alpha believed that if they wanted to attack the mountain stronghold, even if they used strategies, they would pay a heavy price, which was not in line with Alpha's plan.

"We can set up an ambush here, and no matter who comes to support us, we can wipe them out in one fell swoop." Alpha's goal has never changed, which is to surround the point and attack the reinforcements.

"Ah! We have discussed this for so long, but we haven't thought about attacking the stronghold?" Will was ready for the first charge.

"Do it this way. Light up smoke around Mount Joyce to block the bandits' sight. At the same time, we also need smoke to block the area between Mount Joyce and Mount Baft. I want to cut off all connections between the two mountains." Alpha gave the order in a firm tone.

"Fatam, lead two teams to burn the forest to create smoke. Remember, if the bandits come, run away if there are many of them, and eat them if there are few of them. Focus on protecting yourself." Alpha began to convey the order.

"Receive the order." Fattam led his men to start chopping wood.

"Lawlin, you lead two teams to light a fire at the foot of Baft Mountain. Protect yourself as well. If the enemy is numerous, retreat. If the enemy is few in number, annihilate them."

"Receive the order." Rowling began to prepare.

"Quinn, you lead the men and set traps on the road for me. If the enemy dares to go down the mountain, they will never come back. Lilia stays with me and passes on messages at any time. Captain Bach and Will will be responsible for strangling the enemy's reinforcements, and I will go to attack Joyce's stronghold." Alpha gave orders in an orderly manner.

"Alpha, didn't you say before that you would not attack Joyce's stronghold?" Will was confused.

"If we don't attack Joyce's stronghold, how could they send support? I'm just making a feint." Alpha raised the corners of his mouth, obviously thinking about how to ambush them.

……

"Chief, what do they want to do? Are they going to burn us to death?" Looking at the approaching smoke, the bandits on the city wall laughed.

"Chief, look, the main camp is on fire too!" The smoke in the main camp became thicker, and the outline of the main camp was almost invisible.

"They don't want to trap us here to death!"

"Hahaha, we have enough food to eat for a year!" The leader laughed. It was basically impossible to trap a group of bandits to death.

"But if there is no water..." a voice suddenly sounded.

"Chief, we have enough water reserves to last for three months, unless there is no rain at all during these three months." The small chief in charge of managing supplies replied.

"We have food, drinks and women. We must stick to the boss's decision and never go out. I don't believe they can do anything to us." The leader's words were greeted with cheers from all around.

"Cough cough cough..." However, the thick smoke all around still made people cough and cry constantly.

"Leave a sentry, and everyone else come with me to drink and play with women!" It was impossible to attack the stronghold by force, so the bandits were not worried.

……

"Lord Alpha, I have basically checked out the situation of the mountain stronghold. There are about six warehouses and three reservoirs. There are sufficient food and water. We can hold out for at least half a year." The monkey's ability is suitable for climbing, especially in smoky conditions. The monkey can enter and exit the mountain stronghold as if it were an empty space.

"It's just too troublesome to enter the warehouse area. I need to go through three naked inspections, and I can't carry anything with me." Monkey also tried to sneak into the warehouse, but failed. The key is not to bring fire and poison in, so even if you get in, it will be useless.

"You can try throwing some dead objects in, like dead rats, corpses, etc." Alpha suggested.

"It's not a big problem, it's just that they have to clean it up regularly, which is quite troublesome." Monkey was also a little embarrassed.

"Take your time to think about this. We are not in a hurry." If you deliberately destroy the opponent's supplies, you can cause tremendous psychological pressure on the opponent. The pressure will make the opponent impatient and reveal more flaws.

"Yes, sir, I will do my best to complete the task."

"No, your mission is to monitor, and sabotage is only incidental. If there is a risk of exposure, do not act rashly." Alpha did not want to lose such a special talent. Although Alpha had not yet thought of a way to break into the enemy camp, there was still a lot of time, and Alpha had plenty of time.

"Remember, time is on our side." In fact, Alpha knew that this operation would only take three months, and more than twenty days had passed, but Alpha would not put this pressure on the monkey.

……

"Hahaha, you female knights actually dared to launch a sneak attack on us, and now you have been caught by us, right?" In the main square of Baft, dozens of naked female knights were imprisoned in more than a dozen iron cages.

These female knights were all here to attack the bandit stronghold, but were captured by the bandits. The bandits did not force the female knights directly, but tried every means to torture them to their physical and psychological limits, so as to achieve their desire to conquer them.

These female knights were stripped naked and placed in the square for people to see, challenging their sense of shame at any time. There were also bandits who would occasionally extend their devil claws in, making it impossible for people to rest in peace.

"If you hadn't used despicable means and taken those innocent villagers hostage to threaten us, you wouldn't have been able to do anything to us." A young female knight stood up and roared in indignation.

If Alpha were here, he would recognize at a glance that this female knight is Tasli. Ino is also imprisoned here, curled up in a corner and shivering.

"Hahaha, you can only blame yourself for being too stupid. Where are the innocent villagers? Come, bring those people out to me." A bandit stared at Tasli's slender figure with interest and spoke frivolously.

"Sir, what do you want from us?" A young bandit in disheveled clothes ran up to the bandit leader.

"They said we were despicable." The bandit leader wanted to break down the psychological defenses of these female knights.

"As long as we have food, drink and women to play with, we are the leader's dogs, the most loyal lackeys." The young bandit flattered shamelessly.

"Bastards, we were captured because of you. You are not human." A female knight roared angrily.

"I know, so you kneel down and beg us, we will make you want to live and die and can't stop." The bandit was full of dirty words, and his eyes teased the knight in the cage. These are all top-quality, but it's a pity that the leader doesn't allow them to play with them.

"We are blind." The female knights were angry but helpless.

If it weren't for these innocent villagers blocking the knights' way and allowing the bandits to surround and gather them, and if it weren't for these villagers pulling everyone off their horses, the female knights would not have been captured until their death, and the bandits would have been unable to catch these female knights who came and went like the wind.

"I surrender, just kill him for me." A female knight couldn't bear it anymore and lowered her head, but she was determined to drag one person away even if she lowered her head.

"Okay." The leader chopped off the bandit's head without saying a word. After all, it was just a dog.

"Take her out and put her in the kennel." The leader had a lewd smile on his face.

"I have already surrendered, why are you doing this?" The female knight roared angrily but to no avail.

"Because of the lessons learned from the past." Because a female knight pretended to surrender and ended up killing several bandit leaders, these knights now have to go through a restricted program first.

"As long as you surrender sincerely, all the delicious food and drinks are yours." Looking at the female knight being raped by several horny hounds, the leader laughed. Slowly, a large amount of blood flowed from the female knight's lower body, and her eyes were dull and expressionless.

"We are knights. We are not afraid of powerful enemies. We are brave and loyal, and we live up to God. We are loyal and upright, and would rather die than surrender. We protect the weak, and it is within the laws of nature! I swear..." Tasli took the lead in reading out the Knight's Declaration aloud, which added a hint of determination to the eyes of the desperate knights.

"Look, that's fire. Someone is attacking the village, and someone is saving us." Tasli looked at the thick smoke rising in the sky, her eyes full of hope.

"Hahaha, you can't wait until then?" The bandit leader laughed. In such snowy and icy weather, these female knights would turn into ice sculptures in just one night.

"Even if we are in adversity, we must believe that there is light in this world. Even in the darkness of despair, we are the light of this world..." Tasli's declaration successfully boosted everyone's morale.

"I won't let you die easily. I will make you fall into complete despair. Bring them to the city wall and let them see how the enemies outside are being wiped out." The leader roared angrily.

"Wash her and send her to my room." The leader pointed at the female knight with a dazed expression in the kennel.

"Make a fire around them, don't let them freeze to death. If one dies, you must jump down ten more." The wind on the city wall was biting cold, and if no measures were taken, these female knights would not survive for more than a few hours. What the leader needed was the knights who surrendered, not a few corpses.

"Lord Alpha, there are many iron cages placed on the enemy's city wall, and there are people inside." Lilia discovered the situation of the enemy camp after careful observation.

"They are afraid that we will launch a surprise attack, so they use these hostages to threaten us. As long as we attack, they will throw the hostages down." Alpha speculated.

"But it's so cold, and they've all been stripped naked. I'm afraid they can't hold on for long." Lilia thought of the time when she was captured by bandits, and felt deep sympathy for the woman in the cage.

"We are helpless now. We cannot be disrupted by the enemy." Alpha said helplessly. It was not that he was cold-blooded, but he really had no other choice now.

"I know, Lord Alpha." If it was the old Lilia, she would definitely rush to save people without hesitation. But after going through so much, Lilia knew that if she wanted to save people, she had to protect herself first. Only if she survived, they would have hope.

"Lord Alpha, the enemy has sent out a small team of about two hundred people, all knights." Lilia's task is to observe the situation of the enemy camps on both sides and report immediately if there is any action.

"Notify Bach, Will, Fattam, and Lina to eat them all. Don't leave any one alive." Alpha gave the order decisively.

Lilia nodded. She never liked talking nonsense, and she would say even less now. She immediately waved the flag and gave orders.

"Bach, Will, Fattam, Lina, there are enemies. Two hundred of them, all knights, are to your northeast. Prepare to fight!"

"Received, Lilia." All teams sent back orders.

The enemy knight squad had apparently spotted them and immediately began to charge. Two hundred horses galloped across the snow like a gust of wind.

The knights waved their spears and let out sharp roars, as if a group of hungry wolves were attacking their prey.

"Come on!" Bach shouted excitedly, waving the mace in his hand and rushing towards the enemy. Behind him were Will, Fattam and Lina, who were holding a spear, a giant axe and a bow and arrow respectively.

Lilia was stunned watching from the city wall. She didn't expect these four people to dare to fight the enemy head-on. But she soon found out that she was wrong. The enemy knights were soon surrounded by four teams.

At the critical moment, four teams of fifty people suddenly dispersed and shot crossbows at the enemy without mercy.

Influenced by Alpha, these people now focused on preserving their own manpower and trying their best to kill the enemy's manpower. Unless necessary, they would not fight the enemy head-on unless they had an absolute advantage.

Now the two sides have equal forces. If they clash head-on, they will not necessarily lose, but they will suffer heavy losses even if they win. This is not the kind of victory Alpha wants to see. Such a "loss is victory" is also a failure.

The four-man team has been through many battles and naturally understands the pros and cons. They all have their own unique fighting skills and advantages, and can cooperate with each other in battle to fight the enemy together.

Will held the spear, broke through the armor, and retreated, all in one go. After countless battles, he had become extremely skilled, and each attack could take down an enemy.

Bach swung the mace with all his strength, knocking the enemy off his horse, and then swung it hard when he was not prepared, causing blood to splatter everywhere. He enjoyed this feeling, as if he was a madman on the battlefield.

Fatham held two axes in his hands. He jumped into the air, roared, and swung the two axes in his hands to chop down at the same time. The enemy in front of him was cut in half by the terrible force. The cruel scene gave him a sense of pleasure. Fatham's power was getting stronger and stronger. He was experimenting with various weapons, but he didn't have any weapons that were suitable for him.

Lina held the bow in her hand and shot sharp arrows one after another, hitting the enemy's vital points accurately every time. She was good at close-range horse shooting, and her superb shooting skills made her a deadly archer.

The enemy was not to be outdone and immediately began to fight back, using weapons such as spears, swords, and bows and arrows to attack.

The team quickly weaved through the enemy, dashing between them, leaving only a trail of corpses in their wake. Their movements were agile and swift, like four long dragons whizzing past.

"Lord Alpha, there are signs of movement from Joyce Village."
