I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 244 Chaos and Conspiracy

"Ms. Liv, I just received an important piece of news. It seems that the Free Alliance has been invaded by external forces. The other party seems to have made unreasonable demands, ordering the Free Alliance to cut off all contacts with Luster. Do we need to prepare for the response in advance?" Meiyi has made comprehensive arrangements in Cross, and any disturbance will not escape her eyes.

All of this was actually carefully planned by Alpha. Although Cross was insignificant to Alpha, he still remembered that the task assigned by the Holy See was closely related to Cross, so he made arrangements in advance.

"Then how did the Thames and Montgomery families decide?" Liv asked worriedly. After all, these two families have the closest relationship with Alpha in the city. If even they can't hold on, the situation may be very dangerous.

"As far as I know, the two major families are under great pressure from their own family. I'm afraid they will find it difficult to hold on. Even if they don't completely defect, they will most likely choose to stand idly by." Meiyi's intelligence network is very tight, and the movements of any family are under her control.

"Well, we must leave immediately and go to Beth first to avoid the limelight." Liv is not a coward, but she is worried that if she falls into the hands of the enemy, the enemy will use this to threaten Alpha.

"Okay, I have made careful arrangements and will escort you away safely right away." Even if Liv didn't want to leave, Meiyi would force her to leave.

"I can leave alone first, nothing else matters." The Gust family is now in name only. After all, Alpha's plan is so large that even if the family puts all their efforts into it, it will only be a drop in the bucket. However, Liv does not regret it.

"This is something Lord Alpha specially arranged for you. He said that if Cross is in crisis, you need to evacuate immediately and then go to Beth to be responsible for the transactions of copper mines, weapons and magic guns there. He has explained the specific details in the letter." Meiyi handed the letter to Liv, which stated that Liv's Gust family would become the only agent of the new city of Beth, in order to expand the influence of the Gust family.

"We'll set off now." Liv's eyes were firm and fearless. She was never afraid of hard work, but she was afraid of doing nothing. At this moment, since Alpha had given the order, she didn't want to delay for a moment.

"Aren't you planning to leave Cross, Meiyi?" Liv looked at the oriental woman in front of her and was surprised to find that she showed no signs of leaving, so she couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"I still have a mission assigned by Lord Alpha, so I need to stay." Meiyi's tone was firm and confident. She knew her own abilities very well, and believed that as long as she was prepared, no one in the world could catch her.

Liv frowned slightly. She knew that Meiyi's mission might be full of danger, but she also understood Meiyi's strength and determination. She couldn't help but pray for Meiyi silently in her heart, hoping that she could complete the mission safely.

"Okay, Meiyi, be careful." Liv said softly.

Meiyi smiled and nodded, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes. She knew that Liv really cared about her.

"Don't worry, I will." Meiyi's voice was firm.

Liv took a deep breath, turned around and set off on her journey. Her steps were firm and powerful, and her heart was full of a sense of mission. She knew that the road ahead might be full of difficulties and obstacles, but she did not back down. She believed that as long as she persevered, she would be able to complete the task.

Meiyi looked at Liv's receding figure, and a feeling of heroism surged in her heart. She knew that she would also face many challenges, but she was not afraid. She turned back to Cross, ready to face her own battle.

……

"Mr. Special Envoy, we will take action tonight and will complete the mission successfully. Please rest assured." Under the repeated urging of the special envoy, Philros struggled in his heart for several times. Finally, three days after the scheduled time, he resolutely and formally issued the order to send troops to Luster.

"I will pay close attention to the whole process. This mission must succeed and not fail. If you fail, you don't have to come back." The envoy's patience has been exhausted. His expression is grim, and his tone reveals undisguised impatience. At the same time, he sternly warns Philros.

Philros nodded. He understood the importance of this operation and knew that the consequences of failure would be disastrous. He personally selected the most elite troops and developed a detailed action plan to ensure that every link was as perfect as possible.

As the night deepened, Philros led his troops to quietly set off, passing through the dense forest, bypassing the enemy's sentry posts, and approaching the target location. Everyone's heart was filled with tension and expectation, but they all knew that this action was related to their life and death, as well as the future of Philros City.

Meanwhile, the envoy watched everything through the crystal ball in his secret room, his eyes flashing with a cold light. He didn't care about the life and death of the city of Firros, he only cared about whether his goal could be achieved. If Firros failed, he would not hesitate to take more extreme measures to ensure that his plan could continue.

"Lord Tasli, our men are all in place and can fight at any time." Luster's voice was calm and firm. Facing Filros's sudden attack, he was not afraid at all. Because he had long seen through Filros's dishonesty, he made careful plans and made full preparations for this.

"The focus of this mission is not to annihilate the enemy, but to try to delay their actions and make it difficult for the enemy to achieve the goal easily. At the same time, we must let them see the possibility of completing the mission, so that they firmly believe that they can succeed as long as they persist." This is the strategy discussed by Linda and Tasli, which aims to buy more time for the monkeys and make the other side unable to find a target for revenge after paying a certain price without exposing themselves.

After all, Luster's supplies had all been destroyed in the previous battle, so the goal of this mission was not to prevent the enemy from burning the supplies, but to guide them to burn the supplies. In this way, not only would the enemy's efforts be wasted, but they would also suffer the consequences of their illusory victory.

The battle horn had already sounded, and the enemy, relying on their numerical advantage, launched a fierce attack on Tasili's cavalry. Tasili's cavalry were caught off guard and could only hold on. With the addition of the enemy's reinforcements, Tasili's cavalry defense line was breached, and a large number of enemies poured into the transfer station.

However, the guards at the transit station put up a tenacious resistance, preventing the enemy from successfully capturing the warehouse.

At this point, Philros's goal was still to plunder, not destroy, so the city's guards were endless.

"Lord Philros, something terrible is happening! A large number of knights are galloping towards us from ten kilometers away. If we cannot complete the mission, the situation will be very dangerous." The sentry sent an emergency signal.

"Destroy the warehouse immediately!" Philros knew that he could no longer hesitate at this moment. The knights who received the order had no scruples and rushed into the warehouse to launch a destructive operation.

Watching the enemy rush into the warehouse and set it on fire, Tasli's cavalry could only try their best to put out the fire, which greatly reduced the resistance faced by Philros.

When the warehouse guards found that the fire was small, they not only did not strengthen their defense and interception measures, but relaxed their vigilance, and thought that they were controlling the fire. At this time, countless people began to flee in panic, and the scene fell into extreme chaos. This confused the attackers, who did not know whether to continue to set the fire or stop people from putting it out.

"Something is wrong. Why are they suddenly so aggressive in putting out the fire?" one attacker asked puzzledly.

"Not sure, but we should continue to follow orders and make the fire burn more fiercely," responded another attacker.

After half an hour of wanton destruction, the attackers realized that the fire was out of control and began to retreat in an orderly manner.

"Retreat! The fire has started and our mission is accomplished." The leader of the attackers ordered.

"Kill them!" However, the guards at this time were like enraged beasts. They all became extremely ferocious and killing became their instinct.

"What on earth is happening? How can they be so powerful!" one of the attackers shouted in horror.

"Don't panic, keep in formation, fight and retreat at the same time!" The leader of the attackers tried to stabilize the situation.

In the chaos, the attackers began to retreat under the fierce counterattack of the defenders, and the defenders launched a fierce pursuit. Facing this group of wolf-like defenders, the attackers were frightened and could no longer organize an effective resistance. The morale of the defenders was extremely high. They were fearless and pursued bravely, not giving the attackers any chance to breathe.

"It's so stupid! Can't you organize your forces to resist?" The envoy watched through the crystal ball the cavalry sent by Thor being killed wantonly. His heart was filled with anger and he couldn't help but let out an excited roar.

In the end, only a hundred of the thousand cavalrymen sent by Thor escaped, and the rest stayed on the land of Lust forever. Half of the attackers were driven to the Lust iron ore area, where they had to dig for at least ten years before they could be free.

The envoy didn't care about Thor's loss, he only cared about whether Luster's warehouse was destroyed. When he saw that the mission was completed, he quietly left Thor.

At this time, the city of Tor was in chaos, with fire and chaotic crowds everywhere, but no attackers were seen. All the guards in the city were dispatched to maintain order in the city. However, without the support of the military, the efforts of the city guards seemed to be somewhat powerless.

"Sir, it's bad! The police station and the archives room are on fire!" For a moment, the crisis was everywhere, and Philros of the City Lord's Mansion was completely at a loss.

"Organize the people in the city to put out the fire!" Philros came up with a solution. However, he was extremely harsh to the people on weekdays, and the people did not have much good feelings towards him. Therefore, when putting out the fire, the people just did it perfunctorily, and even required a large number of guards to watch over them, which made the guards in the city feel very difficult.

"Lord City Lord, something bad has happened! Our warehouse is on fire and someone is looting our supplies!" Another emergency came, and Philros' mood became increasingly heavy.

"Move everyone over here! If the warehouse is affected in the slightest, you will all die!" Philros's roar resounded throughout the City Lord's Mansion. His eyes were filled with anger and determination, as if he wanted to burn everything in front of him to ashes.

"Sir, now the only ones who can be transferred over are the three hundred people in our City Lord's Mansion. If there is no reinforcement, I'm afraid we can't withstand the enemy's attack..." The guard's voice trembled. He knew very well how serious the current situation was.

However, Philros, in order to save money, cut the city's guards by half despite everyone's opposition. Now facing a crisis, he had to make a difficult decision. He gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Draw half of the troops from all places, including the City Lord's Mansion!"

A large number of warriors gathered towards the warehouse like a tide. They were loyal to Philros and had a firm belief in protecting the warehouse. However, no one expected that after these people left, a group of mysterious men in black suddenly rushed into the city lord's mansion. These men in black were swift and agile, and the city lord's guards had no power to fight back in front of them, and instantly became the souls of the enemy's sword.

At this time, Philros was still worried about his wealth, and he had no idea that the City Lord's Mansion had fallen into a huge crisis. He had only one thought in his mind, which was to protect his property and prevent it from suffering any loss. However, he did not realize that his greed and short-sightedness might eventually lead to irreversible consequences.

When Philros finally realized that the City Lord's Mansion had been attacked, his face turned pale. His heart was filled with fear and despair, and he couldn't believe what he saw. He hurried back to the City Lord's Mansion, but he only saw corpses all over the floor and the scene of being looted. His wealth and power were all gone at this moment.
