I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 209 Bess Bandit

"Gunn, how many knights can we deploy to fight now?" After several rounds of rotation training, Alpha successfully transferred the Black Armor Knights from the mountain area, with a total of 600 Black Armor Knights, 100 mutants and ordinary knights. So far, our number has reached 700. In addition to the 200 people left to guard the Gust family, the rest of the knights have been assembled outside Cross.

"There are still one hundred black-armored knights in the mountains, and another five hundred ordinary people who are undergoing training. Lord Alpha, do you need to call them all here?" Monkey originally thought that Alpha was worried about the lack of troops.

"There's no need for that. The enemy must be alert when we attack Yaman this time, so we can't act according to conventional tactics. In addition, have our magic rifles been delivered?" A week has passed since Alpha sent the message, but no response has been received.

"Lord Alpha, there is no news from the rear yet. But the journey here is long, so it is normal that there is no news." The monkey explained.

"Well, I was too impatient." Alpha also understood that it would be impossible to receive a reply in such a short time. If there was train transportation, it might be faster.

A few days later, everything was ready. The knights led by Alpha assembled and marched towards Yaman Town.

As night fell, they finally arrived at their destination. Alpha divided the troops into three groups and rushed directly to the southern area of ​​Yaman Town. The entire southern part of Yaman was the territory of the Orf family and its allies, so Alpha decided to focus on the southern part.

The battle started quickly. Alpha personally took command of the elite troops, breaking through layers of defense and heading straight for the slave camp.

Facing this sudden attack, the slave traders were caught off guard. Alpha was like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable. His sword flashed with cold light, and every swing was filled with anger against injustice and desire for freedom.

"It's bad, my lord! We have been attacked, and the guards in the south have been defeated. The enemy is too powerful."

"How many enemies are there?" The commander was not panicked, as if he had expected it.

"There are enemies on all sides. They are coming like a tide. The number is staggering. A rough estimate is that there are at least a thousand of them. Facing such a large enemy force, our defense is simply a drop in the bucket and is difficult to resist." Only the upper-level figures received the news, while the lower-level guards knew almost nothing about it.

"How is this possible? The Gust family has only five or six hundred knights in total. Where did they get so many people to attack us?" The commander was skeptical about the news. He did not believe that an Alpha would dare to attack his own Orff family so boldly. Instead, he blamed the root of all this on the Gust family.

"Don't worry about it. The more enemies we have here, the easier it will be for Gorbachev to deal with the resistance of the Gust family. Pass on my order, all personnel must withdraw from the southern area immediately, and we will concentrate our forces to attack the northern area." It turned out that the commander had no intention of defending his territory at all. His real purpose was to disrupt the situation in Yaman Town and launch an attack on the Gust family in Cross City.

As long as one side wins, even if Alpha wins in the end, they will suffer a heavy blow. Moreover, the most valuable slaves in the slave camp cannot be transported away, so they will eventually return empty-handed.

The fierce battle lasted for several hours, but the shouts of killing echoed throughout the night. When the sun rose again, Yaman Town was no longer a paradise for slave traders. The slaves were freed, and they looked at these sudden saviors with gratitude.

In this battle, the slaves finally got rid of the cruel slavery and regained their freedom. They were full of gratitude to the heroes who saved them, and at the same time they were full of hope for the future. For the Orff family and the Gust family, the outcome of this war will have a profound impact on their destiny.

At dawn, the battle finally came to an end on the battlefield north of Yaman Town. The northern area was devastated, like a hell on earth, and the tragedy was even worse than that in the southern area.

"Lord Alpha, enemies in the northern region have surrendered and asked us not to massacre them. They are willing to give up everything." The monkey brought the news.

"Let them come!" Alpha's mouth curled up slightly. He didn't expect the enemy to adopt the tactic of changing positions. However, Alpha did not stop them, but just watched them kill each other quietly.

"Sir, we admit defeat. Please don't kill us. We are willing to hand over everything."

"Tell them that it's not us who attacked their team. We only attack the Orf family's assets." Alpha had just finished speaking when Gunn came back with a team of knights, including the knights who attacked the north last night.

"Curry, it's you! Why are you attacking us?" The slave owners in the north saw the knights' decorations and immediately recognized them as the enemies who attacked them last night. It was dark last night and they couldn't see clearly, but now they can see clearly.

"It's all their fault. If they hadn't attacked us first, we wouldn't have fought back. It was just a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? You're kidding! You killed so many of us, how could it be a misunderstanding?"

"Hahaha, don't you just want to put the blame on us and make everyone else think it was us? But, can't you just pretend to do it? Why kill everyone? That way there will be no evidence. You guys are really calculating." Looking at the other party's face, Monkey knew that he guessed right.

"Okay, okay, I'll leave these people to you. One prisoner can be exchanged for one slave, and I'll give you as many as you want." At this time, the knights from the other two directions also rushed back, and they all brought a lot of prisoners.

"We will give you all the slaves, but they must be handed over to us for disposal."

"make a deal."

……

"No matter where you were before or what your background is, you are free now. You can leave at will. I will never stop you." Alpha stood on the high ground, looking down at the dense crowd below. His voice was clearly heard in every corner. However, he knew in his heart that Cross did not have enough resources to accommodate these people, so he could only let them leave on their own.

"Monkey, give them food and money, and let them leave on their own." Alpha turned and said to his confidants behind him. He knew that these people would have nothing after leaving, and in this chaotic world, their fate would be full of uncertainties.

Under Alpha's arrangement, less than one tenth of the more than one thousand slaves chose to leave. The remaining people were full of confusion and helplessness, and they didn't know where to go.

"Sir, we are homeless. We hope you can take us in. We only ask for a meal." More and more people begged Alpha. They knew very well that this world was in chaos and it was not easy to meet a good person who was willing to take them in.

Faced with the pleas of the crowd, Alpha had no choice but to temporarily take them in. He left two hundred knights to escort these people into the mountains for training, while also planning other things.

"Do you think you won? Let me tell you, your hometown has been attacked, and now you are just a stray dog." When a prisoner passed by Alpha, he made a ruthless mockery.

"Then do you know how many people I have?" Alpha responded coldly. Of course, he would not transfer all the knights away. There were still two hundred black-armored knights in the family, plus the original guards, the total number was no less than five hundred. Unless the enemy had thousands of troops, it would be impossible to capture Alpha's rear.

In the dilapidated family residence, Alpha stood quietly, staring firmly at the breached three-layer wall. Although the outside world had questioned his "not worrying about the rear", his body involuntarily chose to return as soon as possible. Because the family is his root and his eternal solid backing.

Although the scene was horrific and filled with blood, Alpha did not despair. On the contrary, when he saw the relaxed smiles on those familiar faces, his heart was filled with warmth and strength. His people, whether they were warriors fighting on the battlefield or the old and weak who protected their homes, all contributed to this victory in their own ways.

This victory is not only a struggle against external forces, but also a perseverance within the family. It demonstrates the unity and tenacity of the family, and proves that in the face of adversity, they can still stand up straight and have the courage to face hardships with a smile. Everyone has worked hard for this victory, and the seeds of hope have been sown in everyone's heart.

The future is full of unknowns and challenges, but at this moment, Alpha and his people are full of hope for the future, because they know that as long as they are united, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome; as long as there is love in their hearts, they can illuminate the way forward.

This victory is a great test of the family's cohesion and fighting power, and also an important turning point. It makes everyone cherish the close connection between each other more, and makes them understand that only by facing difficulties together can the family become stronger.

Alpha knows that this is just a new starting point, and the road ahead is still long and full of challenges. But he firmly believes that as long as their hearts are always closely connected, nothing is impossible to achieve. This victory is both a summary of the past and a declaration of the future: no matter what difficulties and obstacles they encounter, they will move forward courageously.

"In view of the continuous wars during this period, we have decided to establish a free alliance. All alliance members are not allowed to have more than 100 knights within 200 kilometers of Cross. All commercial disputes are the responsibility of the free alliance, and the security within Cross is the responsibility of the alliance." Xiu Li looked firmly at Alpha and Gorbachev on both sides of the long table, revealing a hint of helplessness and anger. He knew that the strength and influence of these two families should not be underestimated, and he was in a relatively disadvantaged position in this power game.

Behind Gorbachev is Orff, an old noble from the European continent. His family has a long history, deep roots, huge wealth and connections. Alpha represents the emerging imperial family Gust. Although the family has not been around for long, its members are both wise and brave, and they quickly emerged in the Fatalia Empire. In terms of size, the Orff family has an absolute advantage, but this is the territory of the Fatalia Empire after all. The Gust family has also occupied a place in this fight with its geographical and connections. More importantly, in several recent battles, the Orff family has suffered successive defeats, which has forced everyone to look at the young Alpha with new eyes.

"I have no objection." Alpha's mouth curled up slightly. He knew that this proposal would be beneficial to his family. This decision would not only avoid direct conflict with the Orff family, but also buy more time and space for the family's development.

Everyone's eyes were on Gorbachev, whose statement would determine the future direction of this free union. After all, before this meeting, everyone had reached a consensus, and this gathering was just a formality.

In the war-torn land of Cross, the power structure is quietly changing. As a mediator, Shuri stands on the opposite side of the two families. He knows that if he does not take measures, the war will never end and will eventually plunge this land into endless darkness.

Alpha knew very well that without the constraints of rules, the forces behind him would not be able to compete with the Orff family. Once caught in an endless conflict, he would exhaust the last bit of resources of the family.

For Alpha, failure once means complete destruction, but for the Orff family, failure a hundred times is just a temporary setback. Therefore, when Shuri proposed the idea of ​​establishing a free alliance, Alpha expressed his support without hesitation.
