A320 protection speeds

Hi all. Can someone shed some light on the protection speeds on A320 plz ( in normal law)?
I'm still confused even after reading the fcom.
IN Normal Law, A/P on , Alt Crz mode ( or Alt it doesnt matter) , if the Thrust levers are pull back to idle.....
1) Speed decrease below VLS nothing happens = Correct?
2) Next speed is V alpha prot?= correct?
3) A/P auto disconnect before it reaches V alpha prot? = Correct?
4) Assuming no sidestick input from pilots, a/c descend to maintain V alpha prot speed? or?
5)Will it go below V Alpha prot ? in which case alpha floor activated ( assuming no sidestick input- a/c left on its own )


Many thanks. ( so much to read.......)
