1898 Huge Trap
Subsequently, the Central Army launched a siege operation with great momentum. They even idealized persuasion to surrender, trying to surrender without a fight. After all, if there are no casualties, it is still the best outcome. Moreover, since the Central Army wants to take over the city of Faza, it always wants to leave a complete city as much as possible, so that it is more valuable.
In addition, the Central Army is still dreaming of another beautiful dream, that is, it hopes to accept Sharif's current troops in its entirety!
If Sharif had gone out of the city and surrendered, then the 1,000 regular army and 5,000 or 6,000 reserves would have been accepted and reorganized by the Central Army. When the time comes, Pingbai will get six or seven thousand heavily armed soldiers, which can greatly supplement the recent losses of the Central Army!
Therefore, after seeing that Susan did not come to fight, the Central Army became more and more relaxed, and gave Sharif in Faza City twenty-four hours to organize his armaments and surrender out of the city!
In this regard, Sharif said that it will take time to think about it. In reality, he was waiting for reinforcements to arrive. As a result, that night, a group of reinforcements arrived not far outside the city of Faza. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, part of the team quietly entered the city of Faza and joined Sharif. As for the rest of the city, it is not easy to detect it after a hill in the north of the city of Faza.
……
As a result, by the afternoon of the next day, the twenty-four hour deadline had finally passed!
But at this time, Sharif had no intention of going out of the city and surrendering. In order to find a more suitable time for the battle, he told the Central Army that he hoped to give the last three hours to further explore the conditions for surrender. At the same time, better conditions also made it easier for him to persuade his arrogant soldiers and lead everyone to surrender together.
It sounds nice, but in reality it's just a delaying ploy - this is what Gaia has ordered. Because after three hours, it was already night. If street fighting is the most suitable for the Demon Warrior and the Alien Martial Society, then the street fight plus night fighting is even more suitable!!
As a result, the stupid Central Army really fell for it. Because they've been waiting for 24 hours, then don't mind waiting for the last three hours.
However, Hussein, the coach of the Central Army, also told Sharif that this is the last three hours, and it is impossible to delay for another minute. If you don't go out of the city and surrender after three hours, then the army will inevitably be overwhelming!
It needs to be mentioned here that the 13,000 people in command of the Central and Central Army are Hussein, deputy chief of the general staff of the Afuhan National Army. Last time, he didn't dare to come and command the battle, and that was because the shape was very bad at that time. And this time, this guy felt that he had enough superior troops, and of course he dared to take the initiative to ask Ying to take command. In his opinion, this is a great opportunity to win the battle in vain, and of course he must fight for it.
Even the Chief of the General Staff, Abdul, was moved and ready to take command himself. However, the general said that there was no need to slaughter chickens, and the chief of staff of the dignified national army went to concurrently serve as the commander of a team of 10,000 people, so he did not let Abdul come.
So, the coach here is Hussain.
……
Sharif agreed to Hussein's three-hour deadline on the surface, but secretly rejoiced behind his back, gritting his teeth and cursing the Central Army for not dying well.
So three hours later, Sharif still didn't leave the city and surrendered. This really made the Central Army angry, and the heart couldn't be played by this old guy Sharif, right? However, in the face of the absolute disparity in strength, what kind of demon moth can he play? Useless!
However, now that the sky is dark, it doesn't seem to be suitable for a siege, right? After all, the current city doesn't have a city wall or anything, at most a few passes, and once you break through, you have to fight street battles. However, fighting in the streets in the dark does not seem to be very beneficial to the outsiders of the Central Army, after all, Sharif's army is more familiar with the terrain in Faza.
Therefore, even if Hussein, the commander of the Central Army, was so angry that he blushed and had a thick neck, he decided to hold his troops for the time being and wait until tomorrow dawn to clean up Sharif!
Sharif, however, would not wait for tomorrow to dawn, for it was in his best interest to fight at night. That night, this seemingly weak side brazenly launched an active attack -- this guy who was absolutely weak dared to take the initiative to attack the strong Central Army!
This attack consisted mainly of Sharif's own regular army of 1,000 men, supplemented by 2,000 reserve fighters. The sneak attack of 3,000 people fiercely attacked the battalion of the Central Army. Because the vigilance of the Central Army was not sufficient at all, they did not expect that Sharif would have the courage to take the initiative to attack!
According to the idea of the Central Army, Sharif is cowering in the city, and it is not bad if he is not scared and crying, how can he still have the courage to attack them!
It was by taking advantage of their carelessness that Sharif had a chance to take advantage of it, and a sneak attack actually bit off more than 1,000 horses of the Central Army!
However, in view of the absolute disparity in strength, Sharif withdrew immediately after his victory, and once again curled up in the city of Faza. However, this sneak attack completely angered the Central Army. Hussein was furious and regarded it as a great disgrace!
Because according to his original prediction, this should have been a battle without suspense. The soldiers pressed the border, and there was no grass, this is the way this war is. This is good, before the two sides can fight, they have been eaten by more than 1,000 people, what a bad thing. When this incident was reported back to the headquarters, he would definitely be ridiculed by his colleagues, and he would also take the opportunity to be attacked by his political enemies, saying that he had no command, and so on.
Therefore, even if the current shape is worse and the timing is not too good, he must immediately counterattack! Otherwise, I am afraid that others will be seen as weak and incompetent.
Subsequently, Hussein brazenly gave the order for a general attack! Even in the middle of the night, Hussein didn't feel any danger. Because in the face of absolute force suppression, it is a matter of time to take Faza City!
Immediately afterward, the battle seemed to be going as Hussein had expected, and it went very smoothly. The Central and Central armies attacked the city from the north and south, sending 4,000 men and horses on each road, while the rest remained besieged outside the city and served as temporary emergency reserves.
As a result, after both armies rushed in, Sharif collapsed at both checkpoints. The Sharif warriors defending the city probably knew that they were no match for the Central Army, so they put up a little resistance and then retreated.
Of course, the 8,000 Central Army also became more and more demoralized, and rushed into the city in one go, trying to take down Sharif's rebels in one battle. Moreover, according to the map information obtained by the Central Army, the two armies went straight to the two strategic points of Sharif's general headquarters and barracks. As long as you take these two places and defeat the Sharif soldiers in these two places, today's battle will be more than half completed.
However, when the two Central and Central armies rushed to the Sharif headquarters and barracks respectively, they found that they were empty. Unexpectedly, Sharif staged an empty city plan in these two places.
This is a huge trap, set up for the Central Army.
