Shurima's current city walls are not high enough, at least not as tall as the mountains that Zhang Chao and his party saw when they entered in later generations, nor are they two hundred meters wide with crocodiles-stocked moats and sharp city defense equipment that can kill people thousands of kilometers away. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

If it is Shurima in the future, even if there are only a few thousand city guards, Zhang Chao is confident that he can easily let these ignorant grassland tribes come and go, but unfortunately, there is no if.

Zhang Chao could guess that perhaps it was from this time that he was almost abandoned by the nomads that Shurima embarked on the road of a strong city and a wide river, and the city was like a moat.

Therefore, it is obviously wrong to say that the defense declared by King Bai Lan I and some later brick families is useless, and the theory that the city wall blocks the national offensive is obviously wrong, of course, what the former said still has some truth, at least it is reasonable in that era, and the latter analyzes those are pure nonsense.

Nomadism is a job that depends on the sky to eat, God looks at you unpleasantly, a snow disaster, a cold wave, a group of passing wolves...... It's not uncommon for an entire race to be destroyed in an instant.

Such a cruel life and lack of communication with other civilizations made the nomadic civilization that could really survive for many years be miserable, and all their possessions moved with their herds.

They don't have any worries, and they don't have any real estate.

Therefore, nomads are like a group of poor and white beggars, and the barefoot have always been not afraid to wear shoes, so they are more aggressive, sometimes shepherds, and when they take up arms, they are thieves, Turks, Huns...... These people have always been enemies of civilization.

Because even if you conquer the steppes inhabited by these nomads, you will not have much oil and water, and if you let these nomads plunder your territory, even if you defeat them, half of your home will be destroyed.

Defending the enemy outside the country is the last word, and if you can fight in other people's homes, try not to fight in your own home.

Unfortunately, Azir didn't realize this before, so he now needs to stand here and use the few soldiers at hand and the rudimentary city defenses to fight against enemies who are several times or even dozens of times his own.

This is undoubtedly difficult, especially for Zhang Chao, who has never commanded a large army war, he was the deputy commander of a legion, but that was just a hands-off shopkeeper, and did not bring him any experience.

Of course, he is not completely without advantages, the defender can use the city wall to fight the enemy, condescendingly, the arrows shot, the weapons will be twice the result with half the effort, on the other hand, the enemy must spend more effort and the results achieved are far inferior to their own, this is a geographical advantage.

This battle was fought in Shurima, and although fighting in his own house would inevitably damage some pots and pots, it was important that he was familiar with the terrain, had abundant supplies, and had the support of the people, and he could always pull a large number of strong men to help defend the city - this is the people.

The two Ascended Generals are rushing to help, and the nomads must defeat Shurima as soon as possible, otherwise they will be blocked in this basin by the more powerful main force of Shurima, so although their leader Gesathai does not show this on the surface, he must also be full of anxiety in his heart, and this will definitely cause his troops to be biased towards surprise and danger.

If the trick is successful, it will get twice the result with half the effort, and if it fails, it will definitely suffer heavy losses, and Zhang Chao believes that with his huge divine sense and relatively rich knowledge compared to this era, it is not difficult to see through the other party's plan - this is the time of day!

Although the strength on paper is far apart, but the time and place are favorable, and he has taken advantage of it, and this battle is not unfought.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chao breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately felt a little nervous, he had never commanded thousands of troops against the enemy, even if the strength was not what it used to be, but he thought that he still only stayed at the point of talking about troops on paper in military command, and most of this paper was not a regular military book.

"It would be nice if I could directly crush the enemy with full firepower in this assessment, but unfortunately someone must be watching his assessment now, if the strength he shows is too shocking, it will inevitably make people suspicious. ”

Zhang Chao felt a little depressed, if he could exert his full strength, Mo said that using the power of the legendary Candle Dragon, it would be enough to summon an army of undead spirits just by using spiritism to swallow these 100,000 enemy troops.

But fortunately, he climbed high and looked far away, coupled with his strong divine sense, Zhang Chao's vision was far wider than that of the enemy, after all, the real war is not a game, and it is impossible to move the mouse without a small map to let the soldiers order and forbid, in this case, a general who can see the six roads and analyze the battlefield situation is definitely rare.

Therefore, there has always been a saying in the human army, if a general can grow wings and overlook the situation of the entire battlefield, then he is not a commander, as long as his orders can be transmitted, even a worthless ruffian can do what any qualified general can do.

When the war really started, many generals fell into a situation where their eyes were black, and they could only focus on the battle situation of their own one-third of an acre, and had no time to care about anything else.

Senmut had told him that Azir seemed to have defeated Gesatet with his cavalry, but he hadn't listened much to the process, but now that he thought about it, it seemed to be similar to the tactics used by Alexander the Great on Earth.

Alexander is definitely one of the greatest and most brilliant genius commanders in human history, and many web fiction authors once smeared Westerners as having no tactical strategy at all, believing that a single 36-strategy strategy would be enough for them to crush any famous general.

People with this idea can already wash and sleep, whether in the classical era or later in the age of knights, it is impossible, the military strategists of the East and the West emerge in an endless stream, no one is stupider than the other, but according to the social atmosphere of the time, the people of the East and the West obviously have their cultural characteristics when adopting tactics.

The most prominent representative of the Western generals is Alexander, whose classic anvil hammer tactic has been outdated for thousands of years, and has been used until the era of gunpowder weapons and even into World War II.

But even if it is the emperor, at the beginning of the war, he had to personally lead the cavalry, instead of sitting in the rear, just like Zhuge Kongming after the deification of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Because he couldn't see the situation on the battlefield at all, he had to take risks himself, and then use the strong support ability of the cavalry to make up for the lack of his own side on the battlefield, and ensure that the battle would develop as he had planned.
