Chapter 106 2 The Southern Front

After this fierce battle outside the fortress of Mayolan, both sides suffered heavy losses, but in comparison Palch was obviously in a disadvantageous state, because Arufa's follow-up troops were driven to the battlefield one after another, and Shurya, who had sixty or seventy thousand reinforcements, immediately came back, while Gernas, who had less than 30,000 men left, had to temporarily retreat to the fortress. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Shurya knew that the fortress was difficult to attack, and he was unwilling to attack it, but he just surrounded the city.

At the same time as the battle of the Mayolan Fortress was underway, Li Tianhao, who was sitting in the Tours Fortress, had also begun to act, but he did not go to reinforce the Mayolan Fortress as Adlerum expected, but went straight to the main direction of Adelim's attack - the line of Agoba and Kutila.

Of course, Li Tianhao received the news that Belcher had discovered the main force of Arubania, but he was not worried about the safety of the Mayolan fortress. First, he had already sent Senas, Aram and Eglius and 40,000 horses there, second, he had enough confidence in Gernas's command ability, and third, Li Tianhao had calculated that if Arubania was really a full-scale attack, then there would be a deficit in his forces, so there must be a bluff all the way. Li Tianhao thinks that with Adlerm's character, he will not let those two old heads go down to be false soldiers and take the merits by himself, so Adlerm's journey must be a bluff.

For this reason, Li Tianhao decided that since the Mayolan fortress would not be hindered for a while, it was better to defeat Adlem before he received reinforcements, and then turn back to deal with the enemy forces on the Bercher side.

As soon as Li Tianhao made a move, he sent out 65,000 people, which can almost be said to have brought out all the main forces of the Tur Fortress. Li Tianhao's army rushed from the fortress of Tours to the battlefield in only four days. At this time, Adlem's 30,000 men had to face 60,000 enemy troops, and his forces were still scattered on the two sides of Agoba and Kutila, so he could not resist Li Tianhao's army at all.

Adlem's decision was resolute - to retreat.

Since it is impossible to win, the best way is to retreat while the war has not yet started. For Adlem, there are many variables in this battle itself, and Agoba and Kutila are not the main strategic objectives, even if they give up the captured stronghold now, it is not a big deal, at most it is a waste, but if the battle is lost, the loss will be too great. As a result, Adlem quickly retreated to the cities of Agoba and Kutila.

Li Tianhao saw Adlem acting like this, naturally he would not be stupid enough to storm these two cities, he just sent troops to surround these two cities, and by the way, cut off the communication between these two places and other regions, and then spread his eyes widely, waiting for the reaction of the enemy troops in the direction of Belcher.

Palci sent troops on the southern front, and reports of the urgent situation in the cities of Agoba and Kutila soon reached the fortress of Mayolan.

Shurya, who received the news, was startled at first, and then regained his composure. He was shocked that Li Tianhao did not fall for the rush to the Mayolan Fortress, but directly sent troops to attack his own weak feint troops, but he immediately understood that like Palci's army is so tenacious and good at fighting, even if Li Tianhao does not send troops to rescue himself, he will not be able to take the Mayolan Fortress in the short term, Li Tianhao can of course send troops to the southern front and force himself to withdraw.

Then he found out the number of troops sent by Li Tianhao this time, and when he learned the news that Li Tianhao had almost all his troops dispatched, he immediately showed a hint of an imperceptible smile. Shurya immediately found Abrahe, who was recovering from his injuries, and told him what had happened.

After hearing this, Abrahe looked at Shurya with suspicious eyes and said, "You don't want to attack the Fortress of Tours, do you?" ”

"Exactly!" Shurya's expression was filled with indescribable excitement: "I have heard rumors that Queen Alfret is also in Tours Fortress with Li Tianhao, if this news is true, then when Li Tianhao brought the main force to the front line, he attacked Tours Fortress and captured the Queen of Palch in one fell swoop, wouldn't the tide of the battle be completely reversed; Even if he can't take the Tur Fortress for a while, he can force Li Tianhao to return to the army to rescue, then the siege of Agoba and Kutila can be lifted naturally; Take another 10,000 steps back, the rumors are not true, the queen is not there at all, then the fortress of Tours is at least a logistics supply base for more than 60,000 people, can he still abandon it? ”

Abrahe stroked his beard and said: "You are right, anyway, the cavalry surrounding the Mayoran Fortress is useless now, but you don't go to save Lord Adlem, but you attack the Fortress of Tours, if Lord Arufa knows, what will Lord Arufa think?" ”

Shurya, of course, knew that without Arufa's performance in the last fight, he would probably have lost a lot. But he still shook his head and said: "If you go to save Lord Adlem, it will be difficult to succeed if there are fewer soldiers, and if there are too many soldiers, there will be an accident on Mayolan's side, so I think a sneak attack on Tours is the best choice, Lord Arufa is a reasonable person and will not ignore the overall situation." You and Lord Arufa stay here to besiege the city, and I will lead 10,000 cavalry to the fortress of Tours. ”

"Ten thousand? You should take all the cavalry with you! Abrahe said.

Shurya shook her head and said, "Are you confused? From here to the fortress of Tours we have to pass through the Nayler Mountains, where there are only two trails to go, and if we use all our remaining 30,000 horsemen, then even if we use both roads, it will take more than two full days to fully pass, and the speed of the camels is still too slow. However, with only 10,000 horses, it would take only one day to cross the Mahabi Trail, so that we could reach the fortress of Tours in four days. If I were Li Tianhao, I would definitely set up a sentry in the Naylor Mountains, and one more day would mean one more day of preparation for the Tur Fortress. ”

"Now that you've figured it out, go ahead and do it." Abrahe sighed and said, "It's a pity that my injuries haven't healed yet, otherwise I would have taken the remaining cavalry as your backup." ”

Shurya laughed: "You're just an idle guy!" But this time, you can stay here and recuperate, if there is anything that Lord Arufa can't do, I still need you to guide him. ”

In this way, Shulya's dispatch was decided without Arufa's knowledge. Shurya then ordered 10,000 cavalry and fifteen days of food and grass to leave the fortress of Meoran and rush to the fortress of Tours. It's just that he didn't know that the reason why Li Tianhao dared to come out of the nest was because he was already fully prepared. (To be continued.) )
