"Hold on – you have to wait until news of Seleucia and Apulia arrives before you can make a decision, roll your own dice for the game, and strike later!" Next to Magrundius. Prani's head was covered with falling dust, and he held the arm of the great patron and reminded him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Gawain nodded with difficulty, his eyes fixed on the letter on the low table in front of him, always waiting for the right time to send it.

But at this moment, the sound of rapid horses' hooves suddenly sounded at the city gate, and his heart rose to his throat.

In the dim light of the cave, a herald cavalryman wearing chain mail stood in the dust, holding a scroll at his waist, and shouted the name of the great patron, "News from the Seleucian war situation, our county magistrate Andodat. Nisitas had won a major victory, killing Musetto, the son-in-law of the bandit chieftain Zahaas, and now he told me that his army had advanced to the back of the besieging party of Zahas! ”

Gawain jumped up, hurriedly pulled the letter, and read it word by word by the light shining in from outside and the lantern hanging inside.

Anderodat, who had only 800 infantry men with him, was cautious and hesitant to advance to the city of Zephelim: should he take a detour through the mountains of Coleadio or directly from the coastal road of the city of Ramas?

After all, it is the first time to lead troops independently, and with so little of them, it is normal to lack confidence.

But the initiative of the Llamas Garrison Army helped him a lot, and it also allowed this young man who was a heraldic confidential officer to gain his own glory on the battlefield for the first time.

Because Musetto, with 500 pirates, prepared to set up an ambush in front of the coastal road of Ramas to intercept reinforcements from the east. But just as Grandpa Sunfish had predicted, no matter how fierce and brave the pirates were, they were also a "rabble", and a small number of pirates coveted the wealth of the grange outside the city of Llamas, so they wandered over and burned the village, only to be beaten by the soldiers of the Nationalist Army who were holding the city wall—and the rest of the pirates were furious, and "kidnapped" Musetto to fight the city of Llamas.

At this time, the originally said ambush battle was temporarily turned into a "tough battle".

And Anderodat played an "ambush battle" next:

When the messenger of the Llamas People's Army ran to Andodat Ma and delivered a letter for help, the magistrate of Mushroomhead immediately led the team, found the local farmer guide, bypassed the citrus orchards of Gawain and the new rice experimental farm, and quietly set up a position on a hill facing south on the north side of the city of Ramas. Subsequently, Androdart imitated the tactics of the great lord and sent thirty cavalry to lure the enemy on the ground, and fought and retreated. Sure enough, the besieging pirates "worked hard" to kill more than 200 people, and chased this cavalry to the surrounding place of the hill, and Anderodat ordered the ambushed infantry to rush from three sides, killing more than 50 pirates, and almost annihilating them.

Then the cavalry of the People's Army rushed to the Musetto camp that was still under the city, except for a small number of pirates who escaped barefoot and jumped into the seaside ships and fled, the rest were either killed or captured.

After the victory, Androdat ordered that no pirate prisoners should be kept, "even to cut off their right hands, to cut off their ** is too merciful", so the Llamas militia beheaded nearly 200 captured pirates, Musetto's body was skinned by the city's leathermakers, and the skinless and bloody flesh was pierced on a wooden frame, carried by several soldiers at the front of the ranks, and quickly approached the bridge of the Sallev River, which was also the rear of Zahas's siege camp.

Seeing that his son-in-law had become a bloody "human stick" and that his body was humiliated, Zahas almost fainted in grief, followed by a great panic - at the critical moment, Apsomat suddenly jumped on his ship, withdrew all the guards, and sailed away towards the island of Cyprus, "I'm sorry Your Majesty, I betrayed you again!" It's a shame, hopefully this is the last time. ”

Anna personally led the guards to patrol the city, and the female officers sewed up the clothes and armor of the soldiers, and sent medicine and hot food to the soldiers.

"I didn't know that Gao Wen, the king of grass, was so stubborn and ferocious and so difficult to deal with by the people's army and peasants below!" Zahas was in a dilemma when he was hit by the enemy on his back.

At the same time, the 300 militia of Agnes and Alarmán, as well as the full set of equipment of the "Fire Bear Cannon" drawn by fifty pack horses, also climbed the hill on the north side of the Akoum Bazaar, and looked at each other from the Great Hospital Hill and the new Seleucian city wall across the road in the pavilion area.

Half a day later, the fire bear cannon was buried in the shallow pit dug up, and every hour it roared and breathed fire, and the sound shook in all directions, and shot heavy stone pellets with great power, although there were no precise shooting tools and angle instruments, but because the commander was Agnes. Prani, so the cannon still played an unexpected role: in one day's rumbling fire, three of them hit the pirates' camp on the seashore, killing more than a dozen people, and one hit the ship of the Emperor's Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Assasidus (fortunately, Asassidus came ashore to direct the siege), breaking all its masts, and the flesh and blood of the sailors on the deck were miserable.

Under the muzzle of the guns, Agnes saw many pirates abandon their camp tents in despair, and rushed to ships to flee the hopeless battlefield.

Seeing everything, Gao Wen, who excitedly held the letter scroll in his hand, walked out of the hidden soldier cave in the city wall, and the entire center of the camp was full of forging fires, constantly tinkling and forging, Gao Wen's face and eyes were illuminated restlessly, and there were constantly craftsmen walking around carrying wooden frames and wheels. A Gawain detachment guard was standing a short distance from a furnace, and several craftsmen were putting on his body a fitting armor.

"It's okay, it's okay. Alexios. Komunenos – The moment for Gawain's counteroffensive is coming soon, are you ready? In the firelight, Gawain slowly and tightly clenched the scroll in his hand, and then said to the herald on horseback behind him, "The trade route has passed a series of my orders to the bottom of Anglasburg. Theognes, your life has once again been forgiven by I, Gawain. ”

"Drink!" The herald reached out and took the leather cylinder he had thrown, slung it over his shoulder, and then with a swing of his horse's tail, he scurried out of the gates of the camp of Gimagis, turned over the corsage wall, and ran in the direction of the distant city of Iconium.

On the battlements above, the garrison soldiers of the Jimagis were still looking at Posta in the emperor's camp, and they never got tired of looking at it, and began to discuss whether it would be destroyed by the Great Plani cannon, "How is it possible?" A hundred stone bullets fired may not hit this slender tower. The two Gimageis soldiers had a look of envy, they had fallen in love with Alexios' military architecture, which was like a work of art.
