I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 171: Looting Supplies

Alpha's plan was approved by the Revolutionary Army and the Mercenary Group. Of course, it was only a plan to capture the inner gate of South City. Alpha would not make public the plan to capture the outer gate of South City. They acted according to the plan the next night.

The combined mercenary group attacked the inner gate first, and then waited for the news to spread. Tasli led the soldiers to attack the noble mansion, and Gus attacked the enemy warehouse at the same time.

Ito's ninjas assassinated most of the non-commissioned officers and generals at the South Gate, and at the same time put poison in the soldiers' meals, causing most of the gatekeepers to suffer from diarrhea and dehydration. The surviving non-commissioned officers smelled a conspiracy, but they did not report it immediately.

"Report to the superiors immediately and ask them to support us." However, the poison was too powerful and most of the non-commissioned officers were unable to hold their posts.

"Oh no! The commander fell into the toilet and drowned." The sentry cried out in horror. The news was hard to believe, but the commander was really fished out of the toilet.

"Oh no, sound the alarm quickly, the enemy is attacking." Unfortunately, the sergeant was too late to give orders, and a sharp knife had already stabbed into the enemy's body.

"Action." Monkey gave an order, and all the special operations personnel who had infiltrated the enemy forces began to kill enemies who were still able to fight, and spread rumors, claiming that the revolutionary army had broken through the city gate, causing the surrounding soldiers to panic.

Hesitation, speculation... spread among the soldiers in the city for a moment.

Monkey ordered Obama to start opening the city gate. Finally, when the noble reinforcements arrived a hundred meters away from the city gate, the city gate was opened and countless revolutionary troops poured into the South City.

During the one-hour battle after the city gates were opened, the mercenaries continued to attack the nobles' mansions and warehouses, stealing a large amount of food and supplies. The nobles' guards tried to resist, but they were quickly defeated by the joint attack of the revolutionary army and the mercenaries.

Tasli led the mercenary group and charged into the noble's mansion, so that the noble would not dare to act rashly. When the knights came to support, the mercenaries immediately withdrew, leaving the noble knights to surround the noble's mansion and not dare to move.

In the warehouse in South City, the mercenaries were pleasantly surprised to find that there was actually a huge underground warehouse hidden in the mansion, which contained more food and supplies.

Tasli immediately ordered the warehouse to be sealed and the people in the noble mansion to be dealt with.

At the same time, all the food and supplies in the external warehouse were moved out. Unfortunately, there were too many supplies, and even if there was enough time, it would be difficult to move all of them.

When the leader of the revolutionary army, Barbara, heard about Alpha's actions, he immediately came to the mansion to check the situation. Seeing that the mercenaries had successfully seized a large amount of food and supplies, he felt very upset, as if a piece of his flesh had been cut off. He asked his men, "How long have they been carrying it?"

"It's been twenty minutes since we got here." This was counted from the time the mercenaries started moving the things. Of course, Tasli had already arrived.

"Then give them another twenty minutes. We will take over the warehouse in twenty minutes. If there is any obstruction, we will attack immediately." Barbara would not sit idly by and watch the mercenaries rob her supplies. She would not hesitate to fight with the mercenaries.

"Lord Tasli, the enemy only gave us ten minutes. If we don't evacuate the warehouse in time, they will attack us." The subordinate reported to Tasli anxiously.

"I understand. Let everyone enter the warehouse in an orderly manner for the last wave of moving." The people had been moving for nearly two hours, and the supplies outside the city had piled up like a mountain. The laborers had no time to move the supplies, and could only wait for the army to return before continuing to move the supplies.

"Have all the hidden warehouses been covered up?" Tasli only moved those belonging to government officials. There were also many private warehouses of noble lords, which would be their capital for the future.

"It's been completed. Make sure no one can see it." Originally, the warehouses of these nobles were already very hidden. Now after the monkeys' transformation, they cannot be found unless you dig three feet into the ground.

"Okay, prepare to evacuate Rimuru." Tasri gave the order immediately.

However, during the final evacuation, someone disregarded orders. After learning about this, Tasri led the team back to fight. Although they successfully rescued a group of mercenaries, they also fought with the Revolutionary Army. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

Alpha's plan was very successful, not only did he attack the South Gate, allowing the Revolutionary Army to successfully occupy the South City, he also robbed the nobles of a large amount of food and supplies, which added icing on the cake for the Revolutionary Army and the United Mercenaries in their struggle in Rimuru.

In the process of collecting supplies, Tasli discovered that there were even more wealth and resources hidden in the nobles' mansions and warehouses. She decided to hide and seal all these things and wait to collect the supplies next time.

Tasli has become the commander, but Alpha is always worried about her: "You are the commander now. You must improve your command skills and don't always lead the troops. If you die in battle or lose the battle, it will greatly affect morale, and I will be sad too." Looking at Tasli's injuries, Alpha felt distressed. It was inevitable that he would take advantage of Tasli while healing her alone.

Meiyi ran over jealously and said, "Lord Apollo, I am also injured and I need treatment too."

"I'll give you private treatment tonight." Alpha whispered comfortingly in Meiyi's ear.

"By the way, what have you thought about what I told you last time?" Athena walked up to Alpha and asked.

"What's the matter?" Alpha asked.

"You promised me that you would stop flirting with other women." Athena looked at Meiyi and felt threatened.

"Let's go back and talk about it." With everyone here, it was wishful thinking for Alpha to do something to Tasli.

"Lady Athena, do you want to be an ungrateful man? Wouldn't that make people look down on you even more?" The status of women in this era was very low. In fact, if Alpha really did this, it would be nothing.

"It's no big deal. I don't care about what happened before, but you are not allowed to have affairs with other women in the future. You must get my permission." Athena is also a woman, and being willful is their exclusive right.

"Ah! So can we perform our sexual life now?" Alpha is already content with his current life. If Athena is supervising him, Alpha will not be too lenient. The key is that Alpha's ability to control himself is not strong.

"Get out! If you don't defeat me, don't even think about touching me." Athena was determined not to negotiate on this point.

"By the way, check for me if you have fallen behind in your recent studies." Athena is also responsible for supervising Alpha's training speed.

"What's the reward?" Alpha is very lazy, but due to the endless cultivation of his soul, Alpha's fighting spirit is improving very quickly. If nothing unexpected happens, Alpha can become a high-level fighting spirit knight within a year.

"Are you itching?" Under Athena's tyranny, Alpha obediently accepted the examination.

Alpha tried to take advantage, but was crushed by Athena and stepped on. Alpha stood up with dark circles under his eyes and pretended to persuade others not to talk nonsense and ruin Athena's reputation, but everyone just laughed it off.

……

"Why did you disobey the military order? Why didn't you leave when it was time to retreat?" Alpha questioned the last group of mercenaries. The main force had already left, leaving only this small group, which almost ruined Alpha's plan.

"Sir, we didn't receive any orders." The captain's eyes flickered, and he was obviously lying.

"Everyone has received the order to retreat in an hour. Why didn't you receive it?" Alpha said calmly, without mentioning the starting time of the hour at all. But everyone had evacuated, so why didn't this team retreat?

"Three major disciplines and eight points of attention. No lying. Violators will be expelled from the mercenary ranks." Alpha announced coldly, "Burt, execute the military order."

"Sir, we were wrong. We all come from poor families. When we see so many supplies, we can't bear to leave and want to take more. Sir, we were wrong, please let us go." The mercenaries begged bitterly, because Alpha's mercenary group had wages, food, and good welfare benefits. This was the key. They felt at home and didn't want to leave.

"You want to get more supplies. Your intention is good. I'll reward you with three gold coins." Alpha encouraged the other party's enthusiasm.

"But anyone who disobeys military orders will be killed without mercy. Since this is your first offense and you haven't caused too many casualties, you will be expelled as mercenaries now." Alpha was merciless.

"Captain Apollo, we really know we were wrong. We were really wrong." The team threw away the gold coins in their hands and begged for mercy one by one.

"Sir, I violated military orders, please punish me. They all obeyed my orders, please let them go." The team leader was afraid that everyone would be punished because of him, so he was ready to abandon himself and leave everyone behind.

"Sir, I am a signalman. I did not pass the order to the captain. The responsibility is mine. Just punish me." The signalman also stood up.

"Sir, these are first-time offenders, please spare them!" Burt couldn't bear to see his subordinates being kicked out of the mercenary group, so he came out to plead for mercy.

"Okay, Captain Burt will guarantee in his own name. If he commits the same offense again, he will be punished himself." Alpha didn't care what Burt said. Whoever pleaded for the mercenary who made the mistake would be punished by association.

"Yes, sir, I do." Burt did not dare to refute and could only swallow this loss.

"Okay, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living punishment cannot be escaped. Captain, you must run 10 kilometers with a weight on your back. If you can't finish the run, you will be expelled from the mercenary group." As soon as Alpha said this, the other mercenaries looked at the captain. Although this punishment was a bit too severe for him, at least there was still a glimmer of hope.

"Yes, Captain, I accept the punishment." The team leader was determined to crawl back even if he had to. He also saw two brothers who were close to him following him, which gave him more confidence.

"Supervisor Burt. Come over here, Tasli.

"Tasli, please record it later. The mercenaries who run with them will be kept as level 3 soldiers as long as they hold on to the end. The others will be treated normally." Alpha was relieved to see that the two brothers caught up. Sometimes, the strength of the mind is more important than the strength of the body. The level 3 soldier has a basic salary of three gold coins, which is the real treatment of mercenaries.

"Okay, I'll remember that. I will definitely properly settle those people who lack morality." Tasli understood Alpha's intention. Sometimes the power of the mind is more important than the strength of the body.

Tasli was already planning how to arrange those people to the dirtiest and most tiring jobs. Such people who lacked conscience were not qualified to stay in the mercenary group.

Fortunately, although not everyone could complete the race, they all persisted in the end. Tasli also took note of several of them for future observation, and these people became the backbone of the mercenary group in the future.

"Captain Apollo, there is no place for you to go without a reason. How come you have time to come here?"
