I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 170: Discussion on Siege

"However, we also have to consider the actual situation." Alpha frowned and said, "If we are too radical, we may be counterattacked by the entire aristocracy or even the wealthy class, resulting in the failure of the revolution."

"So, Mr. Alpha, do you have any more practical revolutionary strategies?" Altai asked.

"I think we can use a combination of armed struggle and political struggle to overthrow the existing aristocratic regime." Alpha thought for a moment and continued, "We can launch an armed uprising in the city and at the same time win more public support in politics to increase our political influence and voice."

"At the same time, we must unite all the forces that can be united. It is impossible to solve the problem by relying solely on public opinion and passion." Alpha knew that it would not be easy to persuade Altai. He didn't expect this guy to be so difficult to deal with.

"We can establish a new system to break the aristocracy's monopoly on power, separate the military, political power, and law, and restrict and supervise each other, so that the people can participate in the formulation and development of rights." Alpha proposed the separation of powers, and this is the purpose.

"Does Lord Apollo mean to ask us to compromise with the nobles, merchants and capitalists? Do they deserve a share of the pie without doing anything?" Barbara still couldn't figure it out.

"This is not a compromise by one side, but a compromise by both sides. The people have gained living space, taxes have been reduced and there is a surplus, merchants have gained markets, and the nobles have lost their monopoly. As for what you said about doing nothing, it is because you have blocked the road, and it is impossible for some people to join." Aren't there great nobles in Alpha who are willing to share power?

Discussions between Alpha and Altai continue, with Alpha trying to convince Altai to adopt a more moderate revolutionary strategy so that Alpha can be less dangerous.

"Mr. Apollo, your suggestion is very good, but we must also consider the long-term nature of the revolution." Altai said, "If we only overthrow the aristocratic regime in a short period of time, how can we ensure that the results of the revolution can be consolidated for a long time?"

Alpha pursed his lips, he understood Altai's concerns.

"I think we need to establish a more stable and democratic political system to replace the existing aristocratic system." Alpha said slowly, "and this system needs to be supported and upheld by the people."

"So, Mr. Apollo, do you have any specific suggestions?" Altai asked.

Alpha thought for a moment and then replied, "I think we can establish a parliamentary system where the people elect representatives to participate in political decision-making and management. At the same time, we must also establish a judicial system to protect the basic rights of citizens and prevent abuse of power and corruption."

"Parliamentary system? That's a good idea." Altai nodded. "We can implement this system after the revolution is successful, so that the people can participate more in politics and express their voices."

"Yes, Mr. Altai." Alpha nodded. "The parliamentary system can better reflect the will of the people. It can also reduce the intensity of political struggles and make politics more peaceful and stable."

"So, Mr. Apollo, how long do you think it will take us to achieve this goal?" Altai asked.

Alpha thought for a moment and replied, "This question is difficult to answer, because it takes time and effort to achieve this goal. However, we can start from now and gradually promote the establishment of a parliamentary system and the improvement of the judicial system. I believe that all this will not be too far away, and everything will come."

"It will take some time and effort to achieve this goal," Alpha said. "However, we can start from now and gradually promote the establishment of a parliamentary system and the improvement of the judicial system. I believe that in the near future, our country will be stronger and more democratic, and people will live happier lives."

After listening to Alpha's words, Altai couldn't help but sigh at Alpha's foresight. He himself had thought about these problems privately, but had never found a perfect solution. Alpha's suggestion made him see the possibility of achieving this goal.

"Mr. Apollo, you are such an outstanding leader." Altai couldn't help but praise Alpha. "Your suggestions make me believe that our revolutionary cause will achieve greater success."

Alpha smiled and shook his head, saying: "I am just an ordinary person, a person who fights for his ideals. Our revolutionary cause is not just my own business, it requires the joint efforts of everyone. Only when we unite as one can we achieve the final victory."

"Well said, Mr. Alfa." Altai nodded in agreement. "Our revolutionary cause requires the participation and efforts of all the people. Only when we work together as one can we achieve our goals."

"Mr. Altai, we also need to consider the influence of external forces." Alpha said, "We can't let external forces interfere in our revolutionary cause. We need to build a strong army to protect our country and people." Altai nodded and said, "You are right, our country needs a strong army to defend our revolutionary achievements and national interests."

"I understand. I will think about it carefully. Captain Apollo, are you really unwilling to help us attack the nobles?" Altai brought the question back to the starting point.

"When you figure out who the real enemy is, I will help you. But now I don't want to see too much sacrifice among the people. I decided to let the mercenary group attack, but I have a condition." Alpha also has his own difficulties and cannot always be out of sight.

"You say." As long as Apollo leaves the field, Altai can drag the opponent into the water.

"I can help you open the South City Gate and let the Revolutionary Army enter the South City. I believe the rest of the things will be easy for you."

“As long as we open the city gate, we won’t need your mercenaries anymore.” Barbara fully believed that with the power of the revolutionary army, they could defeat all reactionary forces.

"What do you need?" Altai knew that there was no help without reason, and there must be a price behind it.

"I need an hour. After you enter the South City, we need someone to attack the nobles at all times. By then, you cannot stop us or attack us." Alpha wanted to rob, rob the nobles.

"Of course we won't harass civilians. We only target the warehouses of the nobles." Alpha emphasized again.

"You can't steal weapons and equipment." Barbara values ​​the weapons. Only by getting the weapons can they better defend against Rimuru.

"No problem, we just need food and supplies, we won't leave with weapons and equipment."

In this way, the two sides reached an agreement that Alpha's joint mercenary group would attack the nobles' southern city the next night. After the revolutionary army and the mercenary group joined forces, the mercenary group could move the goods from the nobles' warehouse for an hour.

"Lord Apollo, did you promise them that you would only take food supplies and not weapons and equipment?" Burt didn't know that Alpha had made his fortune by relying on weapons and equipment. He was very surprised that Alpha didn't want these things that couldn't be bought with money. These things were comparable to gold in the world.

"I said not to hold any weapons or equipment, but you can wear equipment." Alpha's equipment is not here, and distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, so even secondary equipment can be used temporarily.

"Captain Apollo, I understand." Burt understood what Alpha meant.

"But our mission is to move the nobles' warehouses. Tomorrow everyone will be a member of the United Mercenary Corps. Gus and Gulis will be responsible for prying open the enemy's warehouses. Monkey and Obama, open the city gate for me. Remember, as long as the Revolutionary Army enters the South City, you can leave and join us." Alpha was not worried about opening the South City gate. This operation was also in the name of the United Mercenary Corps. Once they participated, they could not use the Sky Mercenary Corps in other places.

"You decide how to act." Alpha has begun to delegate power. In this small-scale battle, he is only responsible for controlling the situation. Now, Ito and Monkey have already marked the military deployment and warehouse locations in South City, and even the next action plan has been formulated.

"Lord Alpha, Commander Tasli has arrived." Suddenly the sentry came with the message.

"Okay, let them come over!" Alpha just needed a commander.

"Wife, wife is here, welcome her warmly!" Alpha's hug was pushed back by Tasli and Athena with a fist and a knee.

"You want to die, don't you? Who is your first wife?" Tasli's fist was empty, but Athena's knee was real, and it almost paralyzed Alpha on one side.

"That's my little wife." Alpha teased deliberately, but the price was too high. Alpha could only watch from afar and could not play with her.

"You can let me be your first wife, but then don't mess around with other women outside. I will destroy you." With Alpha's strong rise, more and more women surrounded him. This made Athena, who was waiting for his rise, feel a little uneasy.

"We are talking about serious matters now, and we can talk about personal matters later." Although Athena is extremely beautiful, Alpha will not give up the entire forest for a big tree.

"Tasli, I'm still short of a commander. You will be a staff officer now to provide them with advice, and later you will be responsible for the Rimuru area and the Tagula Mountain area." Alpha was going to connect this area into one, and finally leave Rowling or someone else to guard the city.

"Okay, I'll be there right away." Tasli, who only wanted to build her own career, didn't want to waste too much time on romance.

Finally, Tasri suggested: For the city gate, Monkey and Ito Mii's ninja, one will attack and assassinate the leader, the other will block the enemy's strong attack, and Obama's team will be responsible for opening the gate. For the warehouse, Gus will be responsible for the strong attack, Gulis and herself will be responsible for opening the gap and stabilizing the front line, Burt will be responsible for transporting supplies, and Liv and others will meet two kilometers outside the city.

"My only request is one hour. Evacuate immediately when the time is up. No lingering during the evacuation will be allowed. Violators will be subject to military law." Alpha emphasized that this was his only request.

"Captain Apollo, what should we do if the Revolutionary Army attacks us?" Tasli was not clear about the background of the Revolutionary Army, nor did she know how the other side would act.

"Then fight back. If attacked, retreat quickly." Alpha did not want to be an enemy of the revolutionary army, and would not passively accept a beating.
