I was a knight in the Middle Ages
Chapter 83 The Pursuing Enemy
"Ah! But I can't learn it! Lord Alpha." Rowling explained with deep disappointment.
"It's okay, I will modify it slowly until you can practice it." After studying and understanding it during this period, Alpha knew very well that practicing the Fighting Qi Technique was actually overdrawing one's own vitality in advance.
The faster you practice the Fighting Qi Technique, the faster your vitality will be consumed. Unless you break through the limit and break the shackles of your vitality, the stronger your practice, the faster you will die.
In contrast, Eastern Kung Fu, especially Taoist Kung Fu, focuses on health preservation, and combat effectiveness is second.
Alpha had tried to get several people to practice pure Taoist techniques, but no one succeeded. So, Alpha combined the Dou Qi Jue and the Sun Sutra to prepare a new set of techniques for the knights, but the effect was not good, and no one has learned it yet.
"Lord Alpha, you must have a way to teach me, right?" Rowling said while shaking Alpha's arm.
"Do you all want to learn?" Alpha asked the remaining three people: Rowling, Lilia and Monkey.
"I've wanted to be a lady since I was a child." Rowling answered firmly, but reality made her become a female knight who had to sleep in the open air.
"Well, Lilia, what about you?" Alpha asked Lilia.
"I want to be Lord Alpha's right-hand man and learn better skills to help Lord Alpha." The monkey had a serious expression on his face.
"I will learn whatever Lord Alpha tells me to learn." Lilia didn't have too many thoughts.
"Since you want to learn, you must study hard and practice diligently. You must not give up halfway, and you must not die young." Alpha looked at the three people and said with a smile.
The blizzard lasted for five days and only began to weaken at noon on the fifth day, but the wind and snow did not stop.
"Lilia, Dora, Makina, you guys check around, the rest of you prepare to break camp and set off." Alpha didn't want to leave in the snow, but they had been here for five days. The bandit stronghold must have discovered the missing team. It was only three or four kilometers away, and the bandits could send troops over at any time.
"Understood sir." After receiving the order, the three quickly left the camp and walked in three different directions.
"Lord Alpha, there is a large group of people approaching two kilometers ahead, with about fifty knights." Unexpectedly, Lilia discovered the enemy not long after she went out.
"Leave at full speed, Monkey, Duo Luo, hide your tracks, and the rest of you set off immediately." They used white cloth to increase their concealment and quickly fled in another direction. Monkey and Duo Luo used wood and hay to clean up the tracks behind them.
About an incense stick of time later, a team of fifty knights arrived outside the originally empty camp.
The eldest brother in the lead looked at the empty camp and angrily cut down the tree next to him with a knife.
"Search, we must find those people!" the leading brother roared angrily.
The leader got the news that a caravan had been robbed by them. During the siege, some people escaped. If they could not annihilate all of them, they would not be able to report to the king, so they specially sent cavalry to clear them out, but unexpectedly, none of the cavalry they sent out returned.
I thought it was just the blizzard and severe cold that blocked the road, but I didn't expect that there was no one when I got there, and the bodies in the camp were cleaned up. My team couldn't do such a thing, so it must be those who escaped who came back.
"Search quickly, search their escape route, don't let any of them go!" the leader roared.
"Chief, we found the missing team, but..." The soldier hesitated, as if he had something to hide.
"Where is it? Bring it to me."
The angry leader's face gloomy as he watched his men bring in several kneeling ice sculptures.
"Who is it? I'm going to kill them!" The leader kicked the ice sculpture in front of him and looked around at his men around him angrily.
"Chief, we found traces of the enemy in the south." The sudden news made everyone feel relieved, for they were afraid that the angry chief would kick everyone to death.
"Chase! Don't let anyone go!"
……
"Lord Alpha, they seem to have discovered us and are chasing us." Lilia lay on the roof of the car and observed from a distance. Monkey and Dora successfully demonstrated, so that the pursuing bandits could only slowly look for traces and could not track them quickly.
"Fatam, Daniu, Dora, Monkey, and Rowling stay here and continue forward, and the rest of you follow me." Alpha prepared to divide his forces.
"Lord Alpha, do you want to divide and destroy us?" Rowling understood Alpha's intention.
"That's right. I will let them split up and then go around your rear and annihilate you all." Although there are only twelve people on Alpha's side, there are more than twenty war horses. Each person has two horses, so they don't need to save too much energy. The number of war horses can also confuse the enemy.
"If the enemy does not split up and continues to pursue you, you should abandon the carriage and flee directly." Alpha would not put his own people in danger in order to annihilate the enemy.
"Okay, leave the task of luring the enemy to me." Rowling knew that she needed to lure the enemy as far away as possible so that the two teams of bandits could not communicate with each other from a distance.
"Let's go." Everyone rode their horses at full speed and dispersed immediately.
……
The bandits' soldiers brought news that one group of more than ten people were heading west, while another group was heading south in secret. This made the leader confused and unable to make a decision.
"Twenty people chase the troops heading west, and the rest of you follow me to continue chasing the enemy!" The bandit leader judged that they needed to hide their whereabouts because there must be something important that needed to be protected.
"Lord Alpha, they have divided their troops into twenty people to chase us." Lilia had a wide field of vision and could see every move of the bandits in the wilderness. There was no secret at all.
"Everyone speed up, advance five kilometers, ambush, and concentrate firepower to shoot the enemy's horses." Alpha knew that these bandits had iron ore caves and all kinds of equipment and weapons. If they continued to shoot the enemy as before, it would definitely be ineffective.
"Yes!" With an order, everyone accelerated forward.
"Lord Alpha, they are still three kilometers away from us." Lilia sent the message for the second time.
"Everyone hide and prepare for a surprise attack." The Alpha team's speed was unmatched. After they set up the trap, the bandits rushed over. If it weren't for the need to annihilate the enemy, the Alpha team would have already escaped without a trace.
"Gee! Gee!" The bandits spurred their horses and whipped their horses, the sound getting closer and closer. The white cloth used by the crowd to cover the way was not very effective, but the bandits were so focused on getting on their way that they didn't pay attention.
"There's an ambush!" The galloping warhorse was instantly trapped in the tripping pit, and the bandits on the horse were instantly thrown out, and the man and the horse fell. After losing several people, the remaining bandits finally woke up, stopped, and were at a loss.
"Move and shoot." Alpha would not choose to engage in close combat with the remaining dozen or so cavalrymen.
Just as he expected, the bandit soldiers were fully armed, and Alpha's bow and arrow did not pose much threat to them. All he heard was a series of ping-pong sounds, and the feather arrows had no effect.
"Shoot the horse." After completing the tentative attack, Alpha decisively changed the shooting target.
The horses howled in pain, and the scene instantly became chaotic. After two or three rounds of shooting, only five or six knights were left on their horses, at a loss.
Looking at the receding figure, the last few bandits who were still intact immediately rode their horses in pursuit.
"Lord Alpha, six bandits are chasing us." At a distance of 600 meters, Lilia no longer needed to remind Alpha.
"Muna, Alpha, and Snell come with me to fight. Lillia, Aaron, and Yasuo will provide remote support." Alpha turned around and decisively led the three of them to fight.
"Long-range shooting." It was still Alpha's unchanged routine. However, the effect of this high-speed moving shooting was not good, and both target horses were completed by Makina.
The two sides crossed each other, and the bandits did not stop, but instead chose to attack Lilia's side.
Lilia stepped back alertly, stood in a favorable position and started to shoot. She drew her bow and arrow, aimed at a knight, and with a whoosh, she hit the target. The bandit screamed and was shot off his horse. Seeing this, another knight roared and rushed forward. Lilia's eyes were calm, and she shot the arrow again, accurately shooting through the gap in the knight's armor and severely injuring his shoulder.
On the other side, Alpha and the three soldiers also turned around and chased the enemy.
The last two bandits saw an ambush in front of them and pursuers behind them. The enemies in front of them bent their bows and aimed arrows at them. They instantly became scared and turned around to flee, but one of them was shot off his horse.
"Go back and kill all the enemy's horses!" The vast grassland was covered in snow. Without their horses, the bandits would most likely die.
The battle lasted only an hour, and neither side suffered much loss. Alpha only injured two horses, and the bandits only lost four people, two shot to death by Lilia, and two broken their necks when they fell off their horses. But the bandits who lost their horses also lost hope of survival, unless someone happened to pass by.
"Let's go, don't worry about them." Alpha looked at the bandits who had formed a circle and immediately ordered them to leave. The remaining dozen people were all strong and invulnerable to swords and guns. If they attacked them head-on, they would suffer a great loss. Alpha would not do business at a loss.
"Lord Alpha, we have two more war horses." Unexpectedly, after losing two war horses, Lilia snatched back four intact ones.
"Let's go chase the enemy."
"Lord Alpha, they seem to be burning something, and seem to be asking for help." At a distance of two kilometers, Lilia couldn't see clearly.
"Don't worry about them. If the enemy splits up, then we'll eat up the reinforcements. We'll eat them up bit by bit." The enemy still has 30 people. If we force them to eat, we'll probably break our teeth. Alpha won't make a loss-making deal. Next, we need to induce the enemy to split up.
"They are incompetent and extremely stupid. Twenty people started asking for help in less than two hours. They are really a bunch of good-for-nothings." The leader roared angrily, but there was nothing he could do.
"Send ten people to see what's going on. If the enemy is large, don't worry about the 45th squad; if the enemy is small, attack them from both sides and destroy them." The leader knew that the enemy would not be numerous, but how could twenty people be wiped out so quickly? Even if the friendly forces were wiped out, the enemy should have paid a heavy price. Ten people are enough to deal with most difficulties.
"Yes." The third team immediately attacked and pursued possible remaining enemies, that is, to take advantage of them.
"Lord Alpha, the enemy has divided into ten soldiers and is rushing towards us. The escaped cavalryman three kilometers to the right is rapidly approaching the enemy's main camp." Lilia sent the message.
"Destroy the team of ten people." In fact, Alpha wanted to intercept the soldier, but the distance was too far. According to the distance calculation, he was afraid that he would encounter the main force of the enemy before he could catch up.
"Move and shoot, shoot the horses first." Seeing how powerful the enemy's armor was, Alpha stopped trying.
The Alpha team chased the enemy closely, relying on the speed of the warhorses to continuously attack and destroy the enemy's manpower. Until they came into range, they led the team to deviate from the target and move to shoot.
Despite the protection of the shield, soldiers were still shot by arrows and fell off their horses from time to time, losing their mobility. Gradually, the enemy no longer dared to act rashly or pursue them, and could only huddle together and withstand the attacks with their armor.
Alpha was very anxious, but he couldn't think of a better solution. Alpha's knights were not as well-equipped as the bandits, but the bandits were not good at shooting while moving, which gave Alpha an advantage.
"Lilya, look for an opportunity to shoot." Facing the warhorse protected by the Knights, Alpha could only use Lillia's accuracy to attack the enemy.
……
"Lord Papua, the enemy is coming." The fleeing bandit soldiers finally returned to the main camp.
"What do you mean? How many enemies are there? How did they defeat you?" The Papua leader was confused and angry.
"There are less than ten enemies." The soldier said this and realized something was wrong, because there were more than twenty of them.
"How did they defeat you?" Papua calmed down, but everyone who knew Papua knew that the soldier in front of him was doomed to die.
"Chief, please spare my life!" The soldier knew Papua's character and realized that it was a mistake for him to come back.
"If you don't tell me now, I'll have someone loosen up your muscles." How could Papua let the other party go so easily?
"Lord Papua, they shot and killed all our horses, so we can only ask for help." The soldier kowtowed and admitted his mistake.
"Okay, so that's how it is. This makes sense. You can go back." Papua watched everything calmly. The third and fourth teams were not eliminated, but they were unable to pursue the enemy.
"Thank you, sir." The soldier bowed to Papua, and the sweat mixed with blood on his face made his face look very ugly. The soldier thought that the matter was over, but just as Papua waved his hand to signal the soldier to leave, an accident happened. A long spear pierced the soldier's neck cleanly, bringing out a puff of blood mist, leaving behind a twitching corpse.
"Assholes! So many people can't solve the enemy, yet you still have the nerve to ask for help. What's the use of you!" Papua let go of the spear in his hand and roared angrily.
But just as he finished speaking, a flare calling for help from the third team floated in the sky.
"Waste! Idiot! Calling for help again!" Papua looked at the black smoke rising into the sky, unable to hide his inner anger.
"Chase them, attack with all your strength!" Papua no longer cared about the enemy he was chasing.
"Lord Alpha, the enemies are all coming towards us." Lilia went around and shot only one arrow. The enemies were densely gathered together, leaving no chance for them to take advantage.
"Get ready to leave." There were still eight bandits and four war horses, but Alpha had no chance to keep them.
"How many arrows are left?"
