As Basbahn had anticipated, Bihab's first reaction to a sudden attack was to shift his forces to the defensive. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Of course, the main reason for Bihab to react in this way was that Baibasbahn's attack was too quick and violent.

In fact, the most elite troops in the hands of Basbahn were the Batana army he had brought from Batana, but all of these troops had been transferred to Arantlan, and most of the remaining troops were recruited after the re-enthronement of Penonkar. During this year's time, he was naturally very strict in the training of these troops, but their combat experience was almost zero. Bai Basbar failed to create any opportunity for them to accumulate actual combat experience, and could only let them directly complete the transformation from recruit to veteran in this big war. There are many recruits who will lose the opportunity to become veterans forever, but Basbahn will have to harden his heart. He didn't want much, as long as he could cut off Kebaldo and Songares while forcing Bihab to take advantage of the situation, because then he would establish Penoncar I's absolute superiority over Rudanel, and it would only be a matter of time before he won.

After a brief military victory, the biggest problem for Babasbahn was how to remain undefeated in the confrontation with the main force of Bihab. At present, he has brought out all the troops he can mobilize, but these more than 60,000 people are still unable to face the enemy force nearly three times his size. Although most of Bihab's troops were new recruits, there were a considerable number of private troops of minor lords and regular Paz troops, especially the border guards who were once stationed on the border of Arubania, which were battle-hardened. It would not be a joke if the recruits were to encounter these troops, and a small mess could set off a chain reaction that even Babbasbar could reverse.

All he could rely on was his own prestige. According to intelligence, Bihab had given command of the army to his most trusted general, Hilmen, and that Hilmen, as the only high-ranking general on the Paz side who had survived the Battle of Gonggo, must have feared Basbahn. You must know that in that battle, Baibasbahn not only won more with less, but also personally defeated the two generals Guge and Count Shubanor, which became an indelible shadow in the hearts of many Paz soldiers, not to mention Hilmen himself.

Hilmen did not dare to attack the fortified Baibasbahn, but fought for them at some minor strongholds, which reassured Baibasbahn a lot, and he was more concerned about the progress of the war in the south than this timid opponent.

Arantlan's actions were not far from what Basbahn had expected, and many of the lords and generals who had already been on both sides of the war turned to the ground, leaving Kebaldo completely overwhelmed and retreating. However, Alantlan hesitated about the final attitude towards Kebaldo, and wrote to Baibasbahn asking for advice on what to do if he offered conditions for surrender.

From this point, it can be seen that Alantlan has little political sensitivity. Originally, Kebaldo was no longer in a position to make any more demands on Baibasbahn when the situation was gone, and his only way out was to unconditionally swear allegiance to Penoncar I in order to save his life. The reason why Arantrán will petition for instructions is obviously that he has already received the conditions of Kebaldo's request to surrender, and he cannot express his position for a while.

Basbahn has no intention of blaming Arantrán's mistakes, after all, he did not give clear instructions when appointing him, and Arantlan's lack of sensitivity in this regard has long existed. Maybe it's not that Arantran can't make his own decisions, but just take the opportunity to show his loyalty. In any case, Basbahn does not want to make any extraneous problems now, and as long as the land of Kebal Dorkena is surrendered, it is acceptable to retain even some privileges and territories.

In contrast, the commander of the other army did a very different job than Arantlan. At this time, Dadaran had already annihilated all the remnants of Songris, and Songgris himself was captured alive by him and beheaded for public display. In addition, Dadaran slaughtered two cities that refused to surrender, and succeeded in mastering all of Songares' territory. Then Dadaran left his troops behind to defend him, and at the same time gathered the surrendered troops and rushed towards him with his 20,000 elites.

It was a good thing to have nearly 70,000 reinforcements, but it also confused Basbahn about Dahlan: Dadaran clearly respected his orders, did his job of guarding the territory of Songares, and held Bandar Abbas, and did not send troops to help Alantlan, but his orders did not stipulate that he could not help him. Dadaran's actions can be said to not only show his loyalty, but also help him in a timely manner, and also improve his martial arts. Compared with Alantlan, Dadaran's initiative is a little overwhelming, Dadaran is indeed a very great general, but the strong ambition revealed in his actions is also obvious, how to master this precious chess piece and use it well, I am afraid it will be a big problem for himself in the future.

At the same time, Hilmen also seems to have gotten the news of Dadaran's imminent arrival and began to take active action. But he had already missed the best opportunity to attack, and if there were no reinforcements, it was indeed possible for Baibasbahn to retreat in order to avoid a head-on confrontation with him, but unfortunately at this time, since the reinforcements were already close at hand, it would not be difficult for Baibasbahn to hold on for a while. During the twenty-four days of offensive and defensive battles, Baibasbahn held his line without danger, and at this time, Dadaran also broke through the blocking force of Hilmen and advanced towards Baibasbahn in great strides.

With the arrival of the Dadaran Ministry, the ratio of troops between the two sides reached 180,000 to 130,000, which can be said to have basically reached an equilibrium. In the current situation, if Arantrán also rushed to help after accepting the surrender of Kebaldo, the ratio of forces between the two sides would become very favorable to Baibasbahn.

As he arrived at the front, Dadaran brought two gifts to Baibasbarn, the first being a large amount of gold and silver that he had looted from Sindra, and the other being the old general named Billudas. (To be continued.) )
