Chapter 189 Chase
Chapter 189 Chase
"Lord Alpha, what should we do now? Should we follow the revolutionary army?" Gunn watched the revolutionary army and everyone start to move towards Campesi, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Alpha pondered for a while, his eyes following the figures that were gradually moving away through the firelight. He knew that this decision might affect the fate of everyone.
"Gunn, our goal is different from that of the Revolutionary Army," Alpha finally said, "Our first priority is to protect the hostages and ensure their safety. And the Revolutionary Army..."
Alpha paused, as if weighing his words. "The goal of the revolutionary army is to overthrow the government, which could lead to larger-scale conflict and chaos. If we join them, we might be dragged into a battle that we can't control."
Gunn nodded to show his understanding. "So, what do we do next?"
"We need to have our own ideas and do what we think is right without violating the rules and justice of our own knights," Alpha's eyes flashed with determination, "We will remain independent and keep in touch with the revolutionary army for mutual support. But I will not let the Sky Knights become a tool of any party."
Gunn nodded in agreement, "I understand, Lord Alpha. We will act according to your instructions to protect the hostages while avoiding unnecessary conflicts."
"That's right." Alpha turned around and looked at the other team members, who were busy settling the new members. "Now, let's continue our mission, find Darwin's team, and protect the young people we see."
Gunn smiled slightly, his smile was full of confidence and strength, "Yes, Master Alpha!"
Alpha then turned to the other team members and announced loudly: "Sky Knights, get ready to go! We have our own mission, to protect these innocent people to Chelsea and give them a new start!"
The team members stood up and prepared to take action. They knew that the road ahead was full of challenges, but they also knew that only by unity can they overcome all difficulties.
"Lord Alpha, do you think the government will stop them?" Jones followed the team and watched everything curiously.
The Alpha Team neither approaches nor moves away from the Revolutionary Army, and seems to intentionally keep a distance from them. However, they seem to know that the Revolutionary Army will be attacked, so they follow closely to protect them.
Alpha nodded solemnly. His face was as firm as a sculpture. His serious expression seemed to tell the urgency of the situation. "Cambesi is the core area of Fatalia and is very close to the imperial capital. Unless the officials of the empire are stupid, the government will never sit back and watch the revolutionaries take the city easily. It can be predicted that the actions of the revolutionaries have aroused the government's vigilance. They are very likely to take action when the revolutionaries approach the city."
After listening to Alpha's analysis, Jones' eyes flashed with worry, "Then how should we deal with it? Are we just going to watch the revolutionary army fall into despair?"
Alpha's lips curled up slightly, and the plan in his mind was mature. "We will keep a certain distance from the revolutionary army. If the government army really launches an attack, we will do our best to support them. But it must be clear that protecting the safety of the people and our own team is our top priority. We must not let ourselves fall into the quagmire of a full-scale war."
Gunn and other team members gathered together, their eyes full of trust and determination, ready to obey Alpha's orders.
"Our location gives us a strategic advantage," Alpha continued. "We are able to detect and avoid ambushes by government forces while providing necessary assistance to the revolutionary army. However, we must proceed with caution and do our best to avoid direct conflict with them."
"Understood, Master Alpha." Meiyi's voice was firm and clear, "We will definitely protect every innocent person, and we will also protect ourselves."
As the first rays of dawn spread across the land, the Sky Knights and the Revolutionary Army continued to march side by side. They shared a common goal, fighting for freedom, but under Alpha's wise leadership, they would do their utmost to avoid unnecessary sacrifices.
The revolutionary army is powerful, their eyes are sharp, their steps are firm and powerful. Although the road ahead is full of unknown dangers, their inner desire for freedom and vision for the future are burning like a raging fire.
The Sky Knights kept a certain distance from the Revolutionary Army. Their ranks were well-organized and their movements were agile and flexible. Alpha was concentrating on observing the surrounding terrain and the actions of the government forces to ensure that they could respond quickly at the critical moment.
In the early morning sunshine, the two teams advanced steadily, their figures stretched on the ground, as if foreshadowing the difficulties and obstacles they were about to face. On the distant walls of Cambesi, the flag of the empire fluttered proudly in the morning breeze, as if declaring sovereignty to them, and also foreshadowing that the road ahead was full of challenges.
"They are traitors and bandits who have committed all kinds of evil. We must put them to death." When the revolutionary army was less than five kilometers away from Chelsea, countless knights suddenly rushed down from the last col. They came with great momentum, like tigers descending from the mountains.
The government forces will not give them a chance to speak. Only dead bodies can make them feel at ease, and only dead bodies can calm this matter down.
Alpha's judgment came true. The enemy had at least 500 well-trained regular knights, while the Revolutionary Army and Alpha's Knights totaled no more than 100 people. Even with the hostages, there were less than 300 people. The strength of the enemy and us was very different, and the situation was very critical. At this time, everyone's heart was filled with tension and anxiety. They knew that this would be a decisive battle for life and death.
The enemy surged in like a tide before they were caught off guard. Alpha remained calm and responded with amazing speed, commanding the Sky Knights and the Revolutionary Army to quickly form a solid defense line to protect the safety of the hostages and civilians.
"Keep calm and build a defensive circle!" Alpha's voice was like a stabilizing force in the chaos, firm and steady.
Gunn and Meiyi made a prompt decision and passed on the order. The knights and the soldiers of the Revolutionary Army moved swiftly, like the wind, tightly surrounding the hostages and civilians in the center, with their weapons facing outward, ready to meet the enemy's fierce attack.
The enemy knights, led by a commander in red armor, divided into three groups and launched a fierce charge towards Alpha and his men. This commander was obviously a veteran of the battlefield, and he attempted to break through the revolutionary army's defenses by dividing his troops and attacking.
However, Alpha had been prepared for this. He cleverly used the terrain and set up simple but sophisticated traps and obstacles on the enemy's route, effectively slowing down the enemy's advance. At the same time, he concentrated his forces and methodically attacked one of the enemy routes.
"Aim at the left, shoot!" Following Alpha's order, the archers fired arrows at the enemy on the left like a rain of arrows. The enemy was instantly shot and thrown to the ground, falling into chaos.
Alpha took advantage of the moment when the enemy was in disarray and led a group of knights and revolutionary soldiers to launch a decisive counterattack against the enemy in the middle. Gun and Meiyi stayed at their posts and continued to do their best to protect the safety of hostages and civilians.
The intensity of the battle was beyond imagination, but Alpha and his team's tenacious resistance and excellent tactical coordination gradually turned the tide of the battle, and the enemy's offensive was effectively contained. Seeing that the situation was not good, the enemy commander quickly reorganized his troops and prepared to launch a new round of attacks.
"We must race against time to ensure the safe evacuation of civilians and hostages and advance towards Chelsea at full speed." Alpha said to Gunn with a firm gaze. He had already thought out the next plan of action in his mind.
Gunn nodded in agreement. They must make full use of the current weak advantage to fight for the survival of civilians and hostages.
The flames of war are still raging, but every member of the Sky Knights has shown unparalleled courage and determination. They know that only by persevering can they protect those innocent lives.
In the fierce battle, Alpha and his team showed excellent combat effectiveness and sophisticated strategies. Although the enemies were as numerous as ants, under Alpha's exquisite command, the warriors of the Revolutionary Army and the Sky Knights fought desperately and gradually turned the tide of the battle.
At this time, the imperial army's exciting trumpet sounded from afar, and it was obvious that the government had dispatched reinforcements. This news made the enemy, who were already at a disadvantage, panic, and their attack rhythm began to become disordered.
Alpha keenly sensed the opportunity and shouted loudly: "Now is the time for us to fight back!" Before he finished speaking, he led the charge and rushed towards the enemy like an arrow, with the sword in his hand flashing a cold light in the sun.
Although the enemy reinforcements were approaching step by step, the enemy in front of them became lax at this time, which undoubtedly created a perfect opportunity for Alpha's attack.
Under the leadership of Alpha, the Sky Knights and the Revolutionary Army launched a fierce counterattack. They pounced on the enemy like a tiger descending from a mountain, defeating the panicked enemies one by one.
The battle raged for some time, but eventually, the enemy was routed before Imperial reinforcements could arrive. With the walls of Cambesi within reach, the Revolutionary Army and the Sky Knights successfully resisted an enemy ambush and protected the civilians and hostages.
As the enemy retreated, the Revolutionary Army and the Sky Knights got a brief respite, but Alpha knew that it was only a matter of time before the Empire's reinforcements arrived, and they had to make a decision as soon as possible.
"We can't stay here too long."
