Chapter 132 Riot in the City
Chapter 132 Riot in the City
"From now on, you are not allowed to touch me with that arm." Thinking of this, Athena became more and more disgusted with Alpha's right arm.
"Is there any way to prevent this from spreading throughout the body?" Faced with the unknown situation, Alpha still hopes to avoid trouble as much as possible.
"I'll think of a way." Athena looked at Alpha's arm. There was no good solution at the moment.
"Then won't you treat my arm?" Alpha shouted immediately when he saw Athena preparing to leave.
"It's ready." Athena replied impatiently.
"Are there any more fighting spirit potions? I have used them all up." Alpha looked at his arm, which was as good as new, and marveled at the amazing recovery ability.
"You drank it as water! It's used up so quickly." Athena scolded angrily.
"The last level, there is no more this month." Athena thought for a moment and gave Alpha a tube of milky white potion.
"This is a condensed version. You can use my power for five minutes. Make good use of it." Athena still didn't want Alpha to die on the battlefield.
"By the way, after this incident is over, accompany me to the Menis iron ore area. There is a dark potion refining factory there. I want to go and investigate." Athena gave special instructions. This investigation is also to answer the question of the source of the Papua mother potion.
……
"Damn Costanelli, he made us lose half of our troops! We'll divide up his men!" Even when night fell, the bandit coalition only had 1,600 knights return, which was exactly half of the initial 3,300 knights.
"Lord Gorbachev is right. Kustanly's poor command led to the defeat in the war and he should be held responsible for it. I propose to distribute all of Kustanly's cavalry equally." The younger brothers saw the opportunity and immediately demanded to divide up Kustanly's share of the profits.
"So how should we respond to this action? Should we retreat or continue the attack, Lord Gorbachev?" Facing the high city walls, everyone was actually afraid.
"Although Kustanly failed today, he also told us that the enemy is actually strong on the outside but weak on the inside and can only defend itself by relying entirely on the city walls and weapons. As long as we follow the steps and build siege equipment, we will definitely be able to capture the Titanium Mine City." Gorbachev was full of confidence in capturing the Titanium Mine City.
"Then we should continue to send more troops, and after we capture the titanium mining city, distribute the spoils according to the number of troops sent out?" Gorbachev had already prepared a response plan.
"If we continue to send more troops, won't our territory be left empty and vulnerable to a surprise attack by the enemy?" Some were happy while others were worried.
"We are all here. The enemy is hiding. We don't need to worry about our base being attacked." Gorbachev didn't care about it.
"Okay, then we will continue to increase our troops by 500. During this period, we need to build more siege weapons and strive to capture the Titanium Mine City as soon as possible."
Finally, each bandit cavalry regiment received another 500 reinforcements, who would arrive one week later. During this period, the bandit knights would come to harass every day, but it was all just a lot of noise but little action, and everyone in Titanium Mine City had long been accustomed to this.
During this period, Rowling, Makina, and Tasri all sent back information.
Alpha praised Tasli for taking over the Menis Iron Mine, and reminded her to be careful and not to worry about the safety of the Titanium Mine City. As for the practice of training 500 soldiers, Alpha suggested that she could use the small bandit groups around her as sparring partners.
At the same time, Alpha let Makina and Rowling's cavalry regiment grasp the locations of at least three mines. The targets had been marked and the surrounding maps had been redrawn and sent back to the Titanium Mine City.
Alpha told them not to act rashly, and to wait for the second batch of enemy reinforcements to arrive before completely blocking them. At the same time, after the enemy launched a large-scale attack, they could harass the enemy's supplies and logistics.
Alpha's goal is to gather and annihilate them. He does not want to look for enemies one by one on the grassland and then slowly eliminate them. Alpha does not have so much time to deal with the grassland bandits.
Alpha had a premonition that if he did not move out after this incident was resolved, the Vatican would probably send someone over again to urge him.
"Lord Alpha, what's the point of them coming here to harass us every day and then going back after a quick shout?" Darwin and Alpha were mainly responsible for arranging patrols during the night shift, and they couldn't help but complain.
"The enemy's goal is to make us get used to it and become careless, and then suddenly attack us when needed, catching us off guard." Alpha knew the enemy's conspiracy, but he had no better solution. The enemy was plotting, and Alpha could only choose to respond passively.
"What are you doing? You bumped into me." A roar broke the tranquility of the street and the alertness of the Alpha Cavalry. The sudden chaos made the Alpha Cavalry nervous.
"You bumped into me, how come it became me bumping into you?" The man lying on the ground looked wronged, but when he saw the tall and strong man of the other party, his tone couldn't help but weaken.
"You hit me, what should I do?" The sturdy man refused to give up and obviously wanted to get some compensation.
"You knocked me down, what else do you want me to do?" The weak man had a terrified look on his face, obviously at a loss.
"Look everyone, this guy hit me and now he refuses to admit it. Everyone, give him some justice. We can't let him get away." The sturdy man grabbed the man's collar and lifted him up.
"Call the police, call the police, I want to sue him." The strong man shouted.
The situation here successfully attracted the patrolling soldiers. A team of infantry quickly ran over and immediately isolated the crowd to investigate the truth.
"Sir, he was the one who hurt me, and now he wants to just leave." The strong man continued to shout loudly.
"Sir, no, he knocked me down. I'm sore all over." The weak man didn't know whether he was injured by the collision or was hurt by the strong man.
"That means you hit someone and you can pay me or go to jail with me." The sergeant just said this casually and found out the truth.
"No, no, he was the one who hurt me, you can't take me away!" The weak man was grabbed and prepared to be taken away.
"Wait! Which branch are you from? Is this how you enforce the law?" Alpha walked over with a frown.
"Hey, brave man, let him go first." Alpha stared at the man who was grabbing his collar and shouted loudly.
"Sir, this man hit someone. I was just about to take him to see a doctor for a check-up!" Although he didn't know Alpha, the sergeant knew that this man must be of a high status because he was accompanied by ten fully armed knights.
"You are a law enforcer, and maintaining order is your job. Even if you need to take someone for a medical check-up, you should take the lead. When will it be his turn?" Alpha stopped the strong man's behavior.
"Sir, I was hit by him and my whole body hurts. Please help me." The thin man saw his savior coming and ran over. If Alpha's personal soldiers hadn't stopped him, he would have almost hugged Alpha's thigh.
"It was clearly you who hit me, and you still accuse me of falsely accusing you?" The sturdy man was about to take action but was stopped by Alpha's personal soldiers.
"The road leads to the sky, and everyone has the right to walk on it. No matter who hit whom between you two, you are both responsible. You can reconcile now, or get compensation for the injuries." Alpha didn't want to get involved in this matter.
"Sir, I am willing to reconcile." The thin man obviously wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter.
"No, my bones are all broken, I need to go get a check-up!" Zhuang Han said in a firm tone.
His behavior made Alpha suspicious.
"Hulun, take them to get their injuries checked and don't show favoritism to anyone." Alpha was worried about these people and prepared to let his own soldiers take charge.
"Murder! Murder here." Suddenly, a strong man ran up and hugged the knight in front of him. The weak man and the infantry also attacked Alpha together and actually broke through Alpha's personal soldiers.
The people around actually drew their weapons and quickly surrounded Alpha, as if they wanted to kill Alpha.
"Lord Alpha, you go first, leave this to us." The personal soldiers looked at dozens of enemies without any equipment and were not too worried.
"Be careful." Alpha took Darwin away from the team. A gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall. Alpha will not risk his own life.
"Lord Alpha, there are archers!" Alpha had just separated from his personal guards when someone suddenly shot an arrow. If it weren't for the protection of the armor on his body, Alpha would probably be seriously injured if not killed.
However, Alpha's head was not protected, and a large number of arrows shot at him in an instant.
"Fireball!" Darwin fired two fireballs towards the most densely populated area. At the same time, a flare was shot out from among his personal soldiers.
Boom! With the two explosions, the sneak attacks around them were significantly weakened, with only sporadic arrows shooting in, and the danger was instantly reduced.
The sound of the explosion was particularly eerie and harsh in the silent night, and the light of the flares allowed the surrounding soldiers to quickly find the source of the attack.
Soon, the cavalry gathered and quickly took control of the scene, and the riot attack was quickly suppressed.
"Lord Alpha, are you okay?" Kulin was the first to arrive. After all, this was his defense area.
"No, such an attack has no chance of success." Alpha seemed to be thinking about something and did not hear Kulin's question until Darwin reminded him.
"I'm fine. Control all attackers and order all units to return to the city immediately and guard the city gates." This was obviously a pre-planned attack.
"Let each gate fire flares into the sky outside the city and don't give the enemy any chance." Alpha ordered again.
"Why did you attack Lord Alpha? Do you really think it's safer here than in the enemy's prison?" Kulin vented all his anger on the rebellious crowd below. But he found it incredible, these people were generally the hostages before, and he could find reasons for the surrendered soldiers, but these hostages should hate the enemy to the core!
"Sir, they used our families to threaten us, and we had no choice!" The thin man looked terrified.
"Do you think if you open the city gate, they will let you and your family go?" Kulin had a look of disappointment on his face.
Everyone lowered their heads. The problem they faced obviously had no answer. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance of success, people who were forced into a desperate situation would still give it a try.
"Keep an eye on them, I'll go patrol other areas." Alpha felt that this was not a coincidence and the purpose could not be that simple.
"Hurry up and do it. Time is running out. If you succeed, your family will be safe, and you will be rich and prosperous."
