Early in the morning, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba didn't care about resting, and directly commanded the scene, directing the soldiers to put all kinds of obstacles on the street. At the same time, obstacles were set up in the alleys where the soldiers were ambushed.

However, in order to prevent the enemy from seeing the problem, the barriers on the street should be set up in such a way that they do not give the impression that they are obstacles at a glance.

After all, he wanted to put a large army of the enemy into the city to beat him. If the enemy's vanguard saw that something was wrong as soon as they entered the city, the enemy behind would certainly not have entered the city stupidly.

After thinking about it, Alba, the commander of the musketeers who practiced the ambush on the roof, gave advice:

"Your Excellency, you can hide all the obstacles on the roof first. When the enemy forces have entered the city and you give the signal, we will throw the obstacle from the roof. At the same time, you can also hurt your enemies! ”

Morocco is drier and has less precipitation. As a result, most of the houses here have flat roofs rather than sloping roofs. Only fine buildings such as mosques have round spires. Ordinary people's houses, many of which were flat-roofed, were suitable for ambushes by musketeers and some infantry. It is also more convenient to throw obstacles off the roof.

Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba took this suggestion and did not set up barriers on South Street, but hid them all on the roof where there were ambushes, and threw them all down the street at the first order.

However, there are strong barricades in the unseen alleys and on the streets leading from the mosque in the center of the city to the other three gates. Because, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba also fears the sudden collapse of its own army. When the time comes, let the enemy's cavalry charge, and that is to be slaughtered.

Moreover, the other three gates were guarded by Italian mercenaries, and Gonzalo did not trust them very much. If they were charged by the vicious Moroccan cavalry, the Italian mercenaries might be frightened.

So, he had the road to the other three gates blocked. In this way, even if the enemy rushes into the center of the city, because the rest of the roads are blocked, they can only be closed and beaten by dogs.

Even if the enemy dismounted and scurried down the alley, he was not afraid. The scimitar cavalry, without horses, was only abused in front of a few spearmen. Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba did not fear the enemy's stubborn resistance, but only that they would flee on horseback. In this way, his men and horses will not be able to catch up with the enemy. And if the enemy stays in the city, sooner or later he will be found and killed.

In addition, the placement of musketeers on the roofs is a successful example of Marin's repeated use in street fighting. According to Marlin's experience, the musketeers who were ambushed on the rooftop, because of their good viewing angles, could easily spot the "fierce generals" among the enemy. As long as you see it, just give it a shot.

Moreover, Marin once talked about a way to lack morality. That is - when the enemy's cavalry entered the streets of ambush, the musketeers on the roofs did not shoot at the enemy, but exclusively shot the enemy's horses' butts. And after the war horse is shot in the buttocks, it is easy to be frightened and go crazy, and then run wildly and neigh......

When the time comes, the rampaging war horse will become a talisman for the enemy......

Of course, it doesn't have to be a musket, a bow and a crossbow will do. For example, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba borrowed 500 crossbows from Italian mercenaries to shoot the enemy's horses. And whether it is shot in the ass or arrowed, it is certain that the horse will be frightened by pain. The crazy war horse, but even the friendly army also collided. Once this happens, the enemy formation will definitely be thrown into disarray......

Originally, Marin had spent an afternoon with Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba discussed this obscene scene of ambushes in the city. Unexpectedly, now Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba actually used it......

……

In addition to these obscene arrangements, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba also ordered the soldiers to conduct street fighting drills on the streets, so that the soldiers would not be able to adapt to this style of play at once.

After the exercise, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba found that if there were horses on the street that had been shot in the ass and galloped, it was best for their infantry not to stand on the street. Otherwise, it is easy to be trampled to death......

Therefore, in this ambush battle, it is better to have ambushes poke spears into the street from the alleys on the side of the street. Just make sure that the enemy is trapped on the street.

Also, the enemy must not be allowed to break through the obstacles to the other three gates. At the same time, it is necessary to block the south gate at a critical moment to prevent the enemy from withdrawing......

……

On this day, the wind and waves were calm, and the enemy did not come. It is no wonder, after all, the enemy is far away, and even if it is fast, it will take two or three days to arrive. After all, riding a horse can only travel one or two hundred miles a day, not as fast as a car.

And taking advantage of this time gap, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba led the Spanish soldiers to practice street fighting hard and improve their level and adaptability.

Three days later, the 20,000 combined forces of the Vhatas dynasty and the Saad tribe finally arrived......

They were received by Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba only dared to come after the news that he had left with 10,000 horses, after all, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba's fame is too great. With him, neither family dared to mess around. According to the intelligence, Gonzalo not only left this time, but also took away 10,000 main forces, which is equivalent to weakening the city's guards.

And, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba had deliberately released information before, saying that he had left a large amount of food and various supplies in the city of Fez, including a lot of weapons and armor......

For the remnants of the Wattas dynasty and the Saad, who had lost their right to rule, food supplies and weapons and armor were exactly what they needed most, even more important than gold and silver. Because they could grab gold and silver, and a large number of food supplies and weapons and armor were the most scarce and difficult for them to obtain.

Therefore, this time, in order to ensure the capture of the old capital of Fez, the last Sultan of the Wattas Dynasty, Abu Abu. Abdullah. Burtucali. Ibn . Muhammad specially invited the men of the Saad tribe to storm the city of Fez, in an effort to seize the large amount of food supplies and weapons and armor left behind by the Spaniards......

Outside the city of Fez, the leaders of the two armies were surprised to find that the south gate of the city of Fes was actually open......

How could they let go of such a good opportunity? So, with an order, 20,000 scimitar cavalry rushed into the city of Fes from the south gate at an extremely fast speed......

Seeing that the road was unimpeded, the Moroccan cavalry leader in the lead was happy. But as the army passed the mosque in the middle of the city and stormed the other three gates, they were shocked to find that the streets seemed to be blocked by debris......

The commanders in the other two directions did not perceive the danger, and only Aziz, a cavalry officer of the Vatas dynasty who rushed to the north gate, noticed that something was wrong. So, he shouted and alerted the friendly forces behind him to watch out for danger......

Apparently, Gonzalo on the top of a tall building in the distance. Morality. Córdoba also heard his shouts. Familiar with the Arabic language, his face changed, and he immediately pulled the trigger of the arquebus in his hand, which was used as a flare gun......

Hearing the signal, the Spanish soldiers, who were originally lying on the south gate tower, immediately pushed down the old high pile of stones that had been piled up on the inside of the city gate tower. Then, the stones rained down, blocking the way out of the south gate in an instant. By the way, dozens of Moroccan cavalrymen who were blocking the inside of the door were also stoned to death......

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

The Moroccan cavalry under attack shouted nervously, but they were greeted by more raindrops of stones.

The Moroccan cavalry had tried to dismount and climb up the stairs to the South Gate Gate to eliminate the enemy troops who had thrown stones from above. But when they got to the stairs they were dumbfounded—the Spaniards had expected this trick and had blocked the staircase to the gate tower beforehand......

As a result, only the Spaniards on the gate tower smashed their share, and they could not fight back......

As more and more masonry and debris were thrown down, the south gate was suddenly blocked and people could not leave. And when many Moroccan cavalry tried to dismount and clear the debris, many musketeers and crossbowmen suddenly appeared on the rooftops on both sides of the street......

Then, the Moroccan soldiers who tried to get close to the city gate were beaten into a sieve. At the same time, the Spanish musketeers and crossbowmen who came out of the way, while shooting the enemy who tried to approach the city gates, also obscenely aimed their guns and arrows at the buttocks of the Moroccan horses......
