I was a knight in the Middle Ages

"What are the benefits?" Alpha asked subconsciously, swallowing his saliva.

"Forget it! Beautiful women have the most poisonous hearts. I am a knight of discipline and must abide by the discipline." Alpha looked up and no longer paid attention to the enchanting body.

"I know you are a Vatican knight, but this does not affect you from becoming my guardian knight. You can form a national holy knight order and still serve the Vatican." Florina knew that Alpha could not leave the Vatican, so she could only settle for the next best thing.

"Then if the Queen comes into conflict with the Vatican, what should I choose?" Alpha asked tentatively.

"You should have the answer without me having to tell you explicitly." Florina gave Alpha a hint with her eyes.

"The Knights of Light? That requires a national order. Are you the real queen?" Alpha didn't believe that Florina was the real queen. At most, she was just a girl who wanted to be the queen.

"I am the first princess of the Fatalia Empire and the first heir to the throne. Do you think I am qualified?" Flinna actually revealed her identity and turned out to be the real queen.

However, the royal family of the Fatalia Empire has no power. The royal city is just a huge cage, and all the royal family members who are stranded outside will be invited back to enjoy their lives. If Flinna is a real royal family, once she is discovered, her fate will be to wait for death in the royal city.

"What does this have to do with me? I am just a small group of people, and I don't want to get involved in your royal family's disputes." Alpha didn't show much expression. Although this is also a good choice, it is not the only one, and it will also expose his original plan to survive to the end.

"A man's true nature is to achieve great things. I don't believe you are not tempted at all." The condition offered by Florina was to be second only to the emperor and above everyone else. Who wouldn't be tempted by such power?

"Aren't you worried that I will usurp the throne and replace these nobles as the new ruler? What would that mean to you?" Alpha knew that it was these aristocratic forces that were in power in Fatalia now.

"If you really have this ability, then I can only say that I was right about you." Florina has a good eye for people. She knows that Alpha doesn't care about the rights in the eyes of ordinary people.

"I'm sorry, you guessed right, but I don't agree." Alpha finally gave up the fight for power, because Alpha knew that the basis of all power is strength. Before growing strong enough, Alpha did not want to expose his ambitions.

"So, what do you want me to do to be my guardian knight?" Florina was at her wit's end. The only thing she could give Alpha was an illusory promise. But Alpha was always realistic, and these empty promises could not tempt him at all.

"You just said a phrase called 'the true spirit of a hero.'" Alpha took a step forward. The two were almost face to face and could even hear each other's breathing clearly.

"Pervert!" Florina kicked Alpha in the crotch, but Alpha grabbed her ankle.

"Lick the Queen's feet." Florina was not ashamed of having her ankles grabbed by Alpha. Instead, she looked as if nothing could be done to her.

"If someone gives me an inch, of course I should return the favor. It is impolite not to reciprocate. We should take care of each other, my queen." Alpha said as he began to take off Florina's shoes.

……

"Are you willing to be my guardian knight now?" Florina's face flushed, obviously she had just experienced something inappropriate for children.

"No, I still don't want to." Alpha grabbed Florina's feet and played with them, but still refused to agree.

"I have my own mission and cannot reveal my identity for the time being." The real reason is that Alpha is not strong enough.

"You are not allowed to tell anyone about our affairs, especially me," Florina was too embarrassed to say it.

"I know, Your Majesty, they are both the same." Alpha couldn't possibly blackmail a woman over these things.

"But I can help you deal with the Menis stronghold." The interests of both parties are consistent, and Alpha has no reason to refuse.

"Well, don't you have any thoughts about my feet? Are you unwilling to lick them?" Florina turned into a queen, and all she needed was a whip.

"Mutual, if you are willing to lick me, I am willing to lick you." In fact, Alpha was willing, but Alpha did not want to be looked down upon by the queen in front of him. It was also a mutual threat.

"Okay, I do." Queen Friena actually agreed. After all, the two of them had just done nothing, so this little bit didn't make a difference.

……

Based on the cooperation between the two sides, the two teams will discuss how to act next. In the tent, the two teams gathered together. Among them, the Alpha team has four people: Alpha, Rowling, Makina and Monkey. On the other side are Flinna, Kunze and the other two team leaders, Fustan and Tastin.

Flinna was a little clever, but she didn't have a strong sense of the overall situation. Although Flinna was the highest commander, she also served as the captain of the team and directly commanded the battle. Flinna was also lucky that she encountered Alpha in her first battle. Alpha had no intention of becoming an enemy, so he didn't kill him, only wounded him.

If Alpha wants to annihilate it, Fleurna's team will surely be wiped out under its blind command. I'm afraid that in the end only Fleurna and Kunze will be left. Of course, Alpha's team will also suffer heavy losses.

"Let's set off now to attack the Menis stronghold and wipe out those disloyal and unjust people." Florina went straight to the point without any hesitation.

"I object." Alpha was the first to stand up.

"What do you mean? How dare you oppose my decision?" Florina regarded herself as the leader and would not tolerate any rebuttal, even if the two parties were cooperating.

"Do you want to win, or do you just want to take the risk and vent your anger?" Alpha knew nothing about the Menis stronghold. What's more, there were big problems within this joint team, and the commander was acting recklessly.

"Of course I will win." Florina did not realize her problem, and it was the most serious one.

"Then let's leave professional issues to professionals. Your Majesty, just need to sit back and enjoy the fruits of victory." Alpha expressed his thoughts tactfully.

"Are you saying that I don't know how to give orders? That I'm giving orders recklessly?" Florina looked at Alpha coldly. Everyone who knew her knew that Florina was murderous at this moment.

"It is important for people to know themselves. You will know whether you are capable or not only when you are on the battlefield." Alpha's implication was very clear. However, Flinna did not realize that there was anything wrong with her command.

"Okay, let's compete to see who is stronger." Florina wanted to completely convince Alpha by appearing as a winner on the battlefield.

"Okay, Rowling, prepare the sand table, and you provide the terrain near the Menis stronghold. We will use the stronghold as the center of attack and defense and have a competition." Alpha would not actually do it. Fifty people against ten. Alpha is not a god, and his strength is not enough to fight one hundred against one.

"Ah! So that's it!" Florina was a little panicked. After all, without an absolute difference in troop strength, Florina had no confidence in winning.

"We will switch between offense and defense, and the offense will be selected randomly without a name, and the referees will be the six people present." The anonymous offense and defense will prevent the referee from distinguishing between the attacker and the defender, and try to ensure the fairness of the competition.

"Okay, who's afraid of who?" Although Frianna was a little nervous, she still agreed because she didn't want to bow her head in front of Alpha.

"Rowling, Monkey, Makina, prepare the sand table. The two captains will be responsible for the guidance." Alpha had never met Menis, so he could only let Verstan and Tastin give guidance. This was also the process for Alpha to get familiar with the situation.

After the game, Flinna was much more low-key and no longer so arrogant. In this offensive and defensive battle, there were 3,000 people in the village, 1,000 of whom were knights. The attackers had only 300 knights, and most of them were from the army hired by Alpha.

After all, the defensive battle had lasted for several months. Florina believed that this was her own credit, but the subsequent offensive battle proved that her command ability was extremely poor, the troops were completely scattered, and there was no concentrated attack. The whole battle relied on the soldiers' fighting power to hold on.

During the attack, Flinna adopted the tactic of adding fuel to the fire, sending out scouts in groups of ten to scout the front lines. The army kept adding fuel to the fire according to the reports of the scouts, and replaced them with a wave of new soldiers every once in a while.

Alpha knew very well that Florina's command ability was poor, so he did not target her too much with his troops, but instead adopted a combination of real and virtual tactics.

Florina was not an inflexible person. At first, she did not notice Alpha's tactics, but after changing them several times, she gradually discovered Alpha's intentions, so she stopped changing generals frequently and focused on commanding the army to fight tough battles.

This was exactly what Alpha wanted. He had originally sent thirty scouts to investigate, surrounding three sides of the enemy and trapping Florina's army.

Without being able to keep informed of the situation on the front line, Florina's army suffered heavy casualties, especially when it snowed heavily, and command errors led to the annihilation of the entire army.

Flinna's performance in the defensive battle fully demonstrated her ability. With a large number of people and a wide range of generals, the village successfully resisted Alpha's attack and held out for several months.

At the beginning, Alpha did not fight the enemy head-on, but mainly adopted guerrilla tactics and trap tactics, retreating when the enemy advanced, attacking when the enemy was tired, and constantly harassing, making Flyna exhausted. Later, Flyna lost her patience, rushed forward, suffered heavy losses, and finally retreated to the bottom, and was consumed by Alpha's chemical warfare and war of attrition.

Of course, Alpha did not use all his strength. At least Monkey’s special forces team was not dispatched, and he did not use any other strange tactics.

"This is unfair. Why did my five hundred men suffer heavy losses when fighting his one hundred, but he won a great victory when fighting my three hundred with two hundred? How could I not see the trap he set from my high vantage point?" Florina was completely defeated, but did not think it was her fault.

"These are randomly selected attackers and defenders. They don't know who is attacking, and it's impossible for them to cheat," Alpha explained. In fact, it wasn't obvious at first, but the course of the battle was clear at a glance. Flinna just kept attacking and charging, with no tactics at all.

"Then tell me why I know nothing about the trap you set, while I am standing on a high place and can see everything below." Florina persisted.

"First, we use smoke to cover us; second, we work under the cover of night. You can't see all the traps from your high position." Alpha used his previous combat experience and ignited a large amount of poison gas around the enemy camp, making them dare not move at all.

"Where are my scouts? I sent out fifty of them." Florina knew the importance of information.

"I have sent out a hundred sentries to ambush you. If you dare to come out, you will all be killed." Alpha understood the value of the intelligence and directly sent out one-third of his troops.

"You have insufficient troops, so how could you have ambushes on both sides of your rear wing when you are fighting me head-on?" Florina remembered that there were only more than 300 people in total.

"That's because of the combination of reality and illusion. What you saw was all fake. There aren't that many people at all." Alpha adopted a strategy of confusing the enemy so that Florina couldn't find the main army.

"You cheated. You lied." At this moment, Florina no longer looked like a queen. She looked like a naughty child.

Alpha stopped Flynn from getting mad, then approached and said, "How about it? Do you want to tell Her Majesty the Queen how to properly deploy troops and traps?"

"Of course I need it. Tell me how to defend myself." In her heart, Florina was already convinced. Her opponent was stronger than her, and she had been careless before. Compared with the opponent's tenacious fighting, her own fight was simply a complete mess.

In fact, Flinna is very smart and has a strong learning ability, but no one has ever reminded or disciplined her, so she doesn't know what is right and what is wrong, and can't judge right from wrong.

"It's not that difficult, actually. First, send out a large number of scouts to confirm the enemy's position, and then find the gap between the enemy's main army and the smoke on the flank for a decisive battle. Don't forget to leave a large number of troops on the smoke side for defense and to set up ambushes. This is a strategy of confusing the enemy. You don't need too many people. The main thing is to make the enemy suspicious." Alpha explained the general arrangement.

"Then why doesn't the main army confront the other main army head-on, but chooses to harass from the periphery?" Florina thought of a question.

"Is it because of insufficient manpower?" Florina asked curiously.

"Of course not. Now you are on the defending side of the mountain stronghold, which has an absolute advantage in military strength. It's not that the defending side does not want to fight, but that the attacking side will not engage in a head-on confrontation with them. You simply cannot tell the real from the fake. In fact, to deal with this kind of advantage in strength, after doing enough scouting work, the best thing to do is to fight a decisive battle with the opponent's main army from the very beginning. In addition, the lack of troops on the attacking side is also a huge flaw. No matter how you divide your troops, you must always maintain an absolute advantage in strength and respond to changes with the same approach." Alpha explained truthfully.

"Then we can't find the enemy's main force, and we simply can't afford such consumption." Florina knew the situation in the mountain village well.

"Don't forget, this is the territory of the mountain stronghold. The attacking party is an outsider. They don't have enough troops and can't attack by force. They can't last long. If the defending party can't find the enemy's trace, the defending party can continue with its own affairs and don't need to pay any attention to the other side as long as they ensure that they have enough troops." After all, the mountain stronghold has more cavalry than the enemy. Alpha has made thorough plans and does what he should do.

"Okay! I was impatient and shouldn't have divided my troops so many times." At this time, Florina was still an obedient queen.

"Then how did you come up with so many ideas?" Florina was very curious.

"I figured it out by summarizing my previous combat experience and constantly figuring it out." Guerrilla tactics taught her to assess the situation and take every step carefully.

"Then we can attack Menes now!" Florina couldn't help wanting to regain the lost territory.

"No, absolutely not."
