I was a knight in the Middle Ages
Chapter 57 Monkey Action
"Lord Alpha, there are signs that reinforcements are being dispatched from Joyce Village." Lilia immediately sounded the alarm when she saw the abnormality.
"Pay attention." Alpha mounted his horse and prepared to set off.
"Rowling, take the guards and follow me." The two men each led thirty knights, ready to meet the invading group of bandit knights.
"Lord Alpha, they sent out 120 people." Lilia accurately reported the number of the enemy.
"Keep observing." Alpha did not retreat even though the enemy's number was twice his own.
"Rowling comes in from the right." Alpha won't engage in a head-on confrontation with the enemy.
"I obey." Among the few people, only Rowling could completely obey Alpha's instructions, probably because she had died once before and didn't want to experience that feeling again! If Alpha wasn't supervising, the others would most likely fight the enemy head-on.
On the other side of the battlefield, after two infiltration operations, only half of the enemy cavalry was left, and the United Knights took the opportunity to kill their way into the enemy camp.
"Idiot, don't let them circle you! Form a circular defensive position!" The leader on the city wall roared angrily, and could only watch his cavalrymen being shot off their horses by arrows and falling off their horses one after another.
By the time the knights gathered together again, their number was less than half. Facing the enemy's renewed attack, a round of arrows and a charge, the Bandit Knights completely collapsed and fled in all directions.
"This is your tactic, to lure the enemy deep into our territory." Tasli looked at the battle below. Although she disdained the enemy's chivalry, the actions of these knights in front of her to wipe out the bandits still made her eyes light up.
"Damn it, you dare to question my words, believe it or not, I will have someone drag you out and rape you right now?" The bandit leader was already angry and was instantly enraged by Tasli.
"I believe it. Of course I believe it. I will believe it even if you push me down now." The wind was biting cold, but Tasli did not show any fear.
"Bahom, don't be angry. These people are lambs to be slaughtered. There is no need to be angry." A knight commander, Truss, walked up to the city wall to persuade the leader Bahom.
"Truss, if you hadn't harmed me, how could I have been targeted by these knights?" The Bahom thieves' gang had been entrenched here for decades, and had only experienced two encirclement and suppression campaigns in total. However, the Trus thieves' gang came here almost once a year, making Bahom exhausted. He was afraid that they would be wiped out any time.
"Bahom, don't be angry. I've received a notice that they can only hold out for three months at most in this anti-bandit operation. As long as we survive three months, they will have to go back." Truss has his own intelligence source. Three months later will be the busy farming season, and no empire's army can delay spring ploughing.
"But I feel very unhappy being surrounded by these knights." Bahom just wanted to go down and kill them.
"Bahom, your men are all infantrymen. As long as they don't fight you head-on, you can't catch them." Of course, the other party did not follow the spirit of chivalry and escaped directly. It was impossible for the infantry to catch up with the cavalry.
"What if they are regular knights?" Bahom looked at the female knights in the cage. These people are loyal practitioners of the spirit of chivalry and will not retreat even if they encounter enemies several times their number.
"Look at how they fight. Even if they have the advantage in numbers, they will not fight head-on. They are not regular knights at all. They are just like us and will not be bound by rules." Truss was quite interested in the commander. After all, such an outstanding battlefield commander had never appeared in this area.
"Are we just going to watch them slaughter my knights?" Bahom was heartbroken. He had less than 500 knights and this round of massacre had caused him to lose more than 200 brothers. It could be said that his limbs were broken.
"I told you not to go out. I drove away all the old, weak, sick and disabled people just to save food and prepare for a protracted war." Truss and Bahom are not subordinates, so he can only give advice.
"If it were me, I would kill them all." Bahom opposed the repatriation of refugees.
"They are useless to us. If you kill them, the people who are left will only hate us more. Now, if I drive them away, I can not only reduce consumption, but also lower the hatred of the remaining people towards us. At the same time, I can also mix our spies among them. Why not do it?" Truss had his own plans.
The two men have different identities, Bahom is just a mountain king, while Trus is a regular knight. His goal is to plunge the province of Torres into chaos.
"I don't care what you want to do. If you can't make me live, you can't leave." Bahom kicked the iron cage in front of him, almost kicking Tasli's cage off the cliff. Bahom didn't worry at all and walked down the wall angrily.
"What do you think? Obey my orders, become my knight squire, and I will let you out." It turned out that Truss also saw Tasli's potential and wanted to recruit her under his command.
"Dream on!" Tasli refused.
"Bahom will get tired of this surrender game after a few days, and you will not end up well." Truss knew that Bahom was a real bandit, and he just suggested that he play a surrender game.
"Even if I die, I will not become your plaything." Tasli looked at the battlefield below, which was the last hope.
"It's useless, they can't attack us, you have no hope." Truss also knew Tasli's trump card.
......
"Shoot." Alpha also changed the crossbow to a longbow.
Crossbows are very effective when shooting at unequipped infantry, as they have a fast rate of fire and great power. However, when used against well-equipped cavalry, the effect is not satisfactory, as they can only injure horses and are not lethal to humans.
Therefore, Alpha also asked the team to practice longbow skills, which created Lina's special ability - accurate moving shooting, which even Alpha couldn't match. However, Alpha was strong and the longbow had strong penetration, so he didn't need to aim when dealing with dense knights.
After three rounds of shooting, Alpha put down his longbow and picked up his spear. At this time, he was less than a hundred meters away from the enemy. With the speed of his warhorse, he arrived in an instant.
Just when the enemy thought Alpha was going to stop to reload the crossbow, Alpha suddenly picked up his spear and swung it out fiercely.
"Xilulu." A long neigh of a warhorse was heard, scaring the enemy horse so much that it fell to the ground. The knight also fell down and lay on the ground wailing.
"Boss, you're so powerful. What kind of move is that?" A soldier shouted as he looked at the enemy lying on the ground in the distance.
"The counterattack, this is something I saw on TV before, no, it was in a dream, a military commander taught me." Alpha put down the longbow in his hand and said lightly.
"Charge!" Alpha, holding a spear in his hand, led the galloping knights to attack the enemy group from the side.
"Encircle them from both wings, don't let them get away!" There are also experts among the bandit knights. They quickly adjusted the battle line and pursued the enemy in advance along the direction of attack.
"Charge!" At this moment, Rowling's team rushed in from another direction and instantly disrupted the Bandit Knights' formation. The enemy was unable to organize an effective counterattack and could only watch Alpha's Knights flash by.
The bandit leader knew that the enemy was small in number but well-equipped, so chasing them was not a good idea. He immediately ordered the knights to form a circular battle formation and defend with all their strength.
"Crescent formation, cut them one by one!" Alpha quickly changed the order. The enemy's formation could effectively prevent attacks from any direction, but it also resulted in them being unable to move quickly. As the signalman sent out the signal, the knights on both sides launched a second charge.
"Gather together and don't let them get in!" the bandit leader shouted.
"Charge!" As soon as the words fell, feather arrows shot into the enemy group. This time the enemies were more dense, leaving only wounded soldiers on the ground. Alpha's team had no intention of charging into them.
"Spread out and don't become the enemy's target!" the leader shouted.
"Charge!" However, the third charge of Alpha's Knights still used the interspersed tactics. Without densely packed knights, they could not stop the knights' charge at all.
The bandits didn't care about the wounded and chased after them. Alpha ordered, "Shoot with crossbows, shoot the horses!"
After more than ten minutes of chasing, the number of bandit knights became fewer and fewer, but the bandit knights were still chasing, without realizing the problem at all.
"Stop! Clean up the battlefield!" Facing the relentless pursuit of more than a dozen bandit knights from behind, Alpha knew that the time to clean up the battlefield had come.
"Kill." The bandit knight actually launched a final charge.
"Kill." Alpha gave the enemy his last respect, but the enemy was killed in one encounter.
"Rowling, you come and clean up the battlefield and bring back all the enemy heads." Alpha led the guards and hurried back. The rest of the matters would be handled by others, so he didn't need to worry about it.
"Lord Alpha, there seems to be something wrong with the enemy's Joyce Village." Lilia led Alpha forward quickly, "There is thick smoke coming out of it."
"Maybe the monkeys are creating chaos again." Alpha muttered to himself. Now that there was a fierce battle outside, it seemed like a good time.
……
"Who are you? Don't you know that a warehouse is a restricted area and one cannot trespass?" Outside the warehouse door, a bandit guard looked at the sneaky stranger in front of him with curiosity.
"I just came here to seek refuge. Everyone is in the hall, discussing with great interest how to entertain the soldiers. The adults asked me to come and get some food to reward the soldiers." The short monkey explained carefully.
"Do you have the lord's warrant?" The guard frowned and became slightly alert, but that was all.
After all, Joyce Village would take in some ungrateful bandits every day. Even the soldiers of the village might not be able to tell who the enemy was, especially with this monkey who was good at disguise. The guards simply couldn't tell who was a friend or an enemy.
"Ah, a warrant is still needed! I didn't know? The lord didn't tell me?" The monkey's confused look made the guard relax his vigilance.
"Then go over and register for me. I want to know who received the supplies, what they received, and how much they received." A warrant is necessary, but the bandits will never obey it.
"Okay, I'll be right there." Monkey didn't hesitate at all. He just needed to get close to these two guards.
"What do you want to do..." The guard's voice was not finished before his eyes went dark and he fell to the ground. Monkey placed the two bodies in a row, making them look like they were asleep, and then quickly entered the warehouse with an oil lamp.
"What are you doing? This is a warehouse, how can you bring an oil lamp in?" The guard in the warehouse noticed the abnormality at the first time.
"I don't know!" The monkey pretended to be innocent, and his small size made the other party lower its guard.
"Give me the oil lamp. Is the guard outside asleep?" Just as the guard was about to take the oil lamp, Monkey was faster and directly wiped the guard's neck. He opened the warehouse and threw the corpse and the oil lamp in.
The monkey's target was the water room. There were six warehouses, and they were not together, so it was difficult to burn them all at the same time. There were only three water rooms, and destroying one would cause the enemy to suffer heavy losses.
"Who are you? Get out of the water room immediately." Monkey walked to the back but was stopped by the guards again.
"The leader has captured three girls and they need plenty of clean water to wash." The monkey gave another obscene smile.
"Where's your kettle?" Obviously this wasn't the first time such a thing had happened, so the guard didn't have too many doubts.
"This time I brought a water bag, which can hold a lot." The monkey pretended to touch his body randomly, and the moment he got close to the guard, he suddenly exerted force and stabbed the guard to death.
"I don't want to be a thief in my next life." The monkey tied the enemy's body to a stone and sank it into the water room. However, the scarlet color on the water surface was shocking, and people could see the abnormality under the water at a glance.
There is no need to think about these issues now. Since we have already started, we must be decisive and continue to destroy the rest.
"There's a fire and a water leak." The sudden shout scared the monkey, who was discovered so quickly.
"There's a fire, let's put it out." Looking at the chaotic warehouse, the monkey also shouted loudly.
A group of guards came running over and asked, "What happened? Where is the fire?"
The monkey acted very frightened: "Over there, someone is shouting fire."
The chief guard stopped all those who were running around and shouted, "No one is allowed to run around. Stay at your position."
The captain of the guards said fiercely: "I will kill anyone who doesn't stop." After seeing the captain of the guards actually kill someone, everyone quieted down.
Under the command of the captain of the guards, everyone returned to their posts, leaving only Monkey standing there.
The chief guard asked the monkey, "Which department are you from?"
The monkey replied, "I came here to get some water, sir."
"Drag the body out and wait." The captain of the guards ignored the monkey and asked him to wait outside.
The monkey dragged the corpse towards the second water room.
There were two people guarding the second water room, and Monkey was in a dilemma. He could only kill one person quietly, but if two people did it together, it would definitely make a noise.
"Who are you? Why are you dragging the corpse?" Seeing the monkey pushing the corpse away so brazenly, the two guards immediately became alert.
The monkey explained: "The captain of the guards asked me to drag the body out. I got lost and couldn't find the way out."
"Billy, take him out, it's really unlucky." A guard obviously didn't want to see the body, so he turned around and left.
"Follow me." The guard never expected that the monkey would scratch his neck as soon as he turned around.
"Billy, what are you doing? Let him carry the body himself? Why are you doing this?" Unexpectedly, another guard came back. However, now his companion looked like he was helping.
"Sir, the body is stuck and I can't move it by myself." The monkey looked troubled and held on to the body tightly to prevent it from falling.
"Billy, what's wrong with you?" The guard realized something was wrong and approached cautiously.
"Billy." The guard drew out his long knife and continued to approach.
"Billy." The guard looked at his fallen companion with horror in his eyes. But as soon as he drew his sword, the monkey raised his sword and slashed it, and a stream of blood sprayed on the ground.
"If you hadn't come back, you could have saved your life." Monkey quickly cleaned up the scene and sank the body into the water room again. However, the blood on the ground could not be cleaned up at all, and it was obvious that there had been a fierce battle here.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack."
