Adlem's actions were superb, and the 30,000 infantry he led even surpassed the cavalry led by Shurya. He quickly launched a surprise attack on www.biquge.info the Palci strongholds around Kutila and Agoba.

The Palchi army, which was taken by surprise, really deserved to be brave in a hundred battles, and even in such an unfavorable situation, they still did not panic. With their strong strongholds, they repelled the attacks of the Arubanian army again and again with their meager forces. The assault began during the night and lasted until dawn, with only two strongholds along Kutila and Agoba falling, and the rest remained under the control of the Palci army.

Almost at the same time, 70,000 infantry and 50,000 cavalry under Shurya and Abrahe also began an offensive against the Palchi army along the Belche line. Compared to Adlem, their attack was much smoother, after all, the numerical advantage was there, and the result of a night of fierce fighting was that they successfully recaptured six strongholds, and the remaining strongholds were also in a crumbling and dangerous situation, if calculated at this rate, it would take them less than two days to completely regain these strongholds.

Shurya and Abrahe are optimistic about the situation, and the two have already begun to discuss the next steps to attack the fortress of Mayolan. Both of them are well aware of the solidity of the Mayolan fortress, and if they want to conquer such a fortress by force, they are afraid that they will have to sacrifice tens of thousands of lives, and this is still under the condition that the other party does not send reinforcements. The best way to do this is to besiege them for a long time and force them to surrender with hunger, but this is obviously completely out of step with the rhythm of this battle. The main topic of their discussion, therefore, was how to create the illusion of an all-out assault to attract Palci's troops without incurring too many casualties.

At this time, Arufa said on the side: "Two lords, since our march is going well, and it is only a matter of the next two days to take these strongholds, then why don't we free up the cavalry that we can't use for the time being and go directly to the Mayolan fortress?" The Palchi army must have never imagined that we would be so fast. ”

Abrahe slapped his thigh and shouted, "Well said! Arufa, you have the potential to become a celebrity! ”

Shurya gently pressed the shoulders of his old comrade-in-arms and said steadily: "Lord Arufa, your suggestion is very interesting, we will consider it carefully and make a decision later." Now, can you go to the front line to supervise the battle? ”

"Yes, the next official will retire." Arufa bowed and retreated respectfully.

"Shurya, why are you so yin and yang? It's not like you. As soon as Arufa exited, Abrahe asked.

Shurya shook his head and smiled: "Abrahe, you anxious fellow, why don't you think about it, if we rush to the Mayolan fortress with cavalry, is it possible to take the fortress in one fell swoop." ”

Abrahe shook his head: "This is difficult, even if it is raided, the Mayolan fortress is not so easy to take." ”

"That's right," Shurya said, "but who will be the one who will retake the stronghold when we go?" ”

"Oh, I see, the credit for that is his Arufa, and our long journey is in vain."

Shurya patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "So you're too anxious." This little ghost is no more stupid than his father, but unfortunately he is still too tender after all. ”

In this way, Arufa's proposal was shelved. Shurya and Abrach were indeed very good commanders, and as they expected, two days later they took all the strongholds along the Belchet line as expected, and then began the assault on the fortress of Mayolan.

However, the two-day delay has changed the battlefield situation dramatically. Originally, Adlerham's action did catch Li Tianhao off guard, and the attack speed of Shurya and Abrahe was not fast, but there was a completely accidental change that led to a different result, that is, in the past two days, Senas took Alam and Eglius and 40,000 horses into the Mayolan Fortress.

Li Tianhao's judgment on the upcoming operation of the Arubanian army was that since their grain and grass had just arrived, it would take at least half a month to start the offensive, so he planned to take the lead in attacking in front of Arubania. You must know that Li Tianhao has set a strategy for consuming Arubania's troops early on, and he has been preparing for the attack on Arubania for a longer time than Adlerm. Therefore, he immediately sent Senas, Aram and Eglius with 40,000 troops to reinforce the three generals Gernas, Dara and Zaran, who were currently stationed in the fortress of Mayolan. Due to the arrival of Senas, the garrison of the fortress of Meolan reached 55,000 men, which gave the Palchi army the strength to confront the Arubanian army in numbers. Especially when Shurya and Abrahe rushed to the fortress of Mayolan with 50,000 cavalry, they were greeted not by the strong ramparts of the fortress, but by the solid array of the Palci army.

As a veteran of Yaki, Gernas was also familiar with the tactics of the Arubanian army, and he took advantage of the geographical conditions of the Mayolan Fortress itself to choose to line up on the north side of the Mayolan Fortress. In this way, the right flank of the Palci army was the fortress itself, and the left flank was the Diqil Sea, so that the Arubanian cavalry could not use their mobility to make a detour to the rear of the Palci army, and if they wanted to break through from the front, the solid formation of the Gernas would definitely cause heavy casualties to the Arubanian army.

"What a nuisance." Shurya, who saw this scene, said with a frown.

Abrahe was more optimistic: "There is nothing to worry about, although the opponent has a large number, there is no cavalry, and it will definitely be defeated under the onslaught of our cavalry." As long as you defeat them, you can take advantage of the momentum to take the Mayolan Fortress! ”

"I'm afraid it won't go that way." Shurya said softly.

Abrahe grabbed the reins of the war horse and said, "Shurya, I'll take the lead!" Let's go! ”

Before Shurya could respond, Abrahe began the first wave of the offensive with 10,000 camel soldiers. Shurya shook his head and sighed, in fact, Abrahe was indeed too impulsive, but at present, there was really no better way than to defeat the enemy army head-on, but Shurya hoped to wait until the follow-up troops arrived before starting the battle, so that they would have a two-to-one advantage.

The tragic Battle of the Mayolan Fortress began in such a situation similar to an encounter. (To be continued.) )
