Chapter Ninety-Three: The Teacher and I

My name is Alayah,

This dream was quite interesting.

?? :?? :??

The Macedonian-style palace architecture and décor, the boisterous and hecturing ancient guards and attendants, and the tall black horses that are snorting and kicking the horse trainers to the ground with a snort.

The sudden bustle in front of him made Webber stunned.

All he remembered was that because Iskandar stayed in Luna's mana pool and refused to leave, which the Conquest King claimed he had conquered, Moon Spirit Liquid and Rider had been engaged in a long tug-of-war, fearing that Webb would be guarded by an enemy.

Is this asleep?

According to Mr. Kenneth, this situation should be the experience of dreaming about the conquest of Iskandar the Great, but there are no red-haired giants nearby.

The middle-aged man next to him, wearing a crown and holding a scepter, was gorgeously dressed with red hair and beard, but unfortunately his height and size were far behind.

"This Thessalian merchant is very good at publicity," noticing Webber's gaze, the middle-aged red-haired man with a crown on his head nodded slightly, "If all the warriors of Pyra are unable to tame this horse, the value of the herd he brings will be greatly increased." ”

"In the same way, if any of His Majesty's warriors can tame it, his name will be known among the surrounding city-states." Webb hesitated for a moment, then replied in a measured manner.

As for the situation in the dream, Mr. Kenneth also revealed that there is no need to think about why the person in the dream speaks modern English and modern vocabulary, although the memory of the follower can dream after all, it is a prerequisite to be able to understand each other's meaning.

In the same way, its human geography and even timeline may be problematic and do not need to be delved into.

"His Royal Highness the Prince has come down." "It's His Royal Highness the Prince......"

The crowd of onlookers parted, and out came a young man in black light armor with a big red cloak behind his back, he had an extremely handsome face, short fiery red hair, and a playful pigtail tied at the back of his head.

"Teacher Aristotle, Father." He saluted Webb and the middle-aged red-haired man beside him.

That's not right, where did Rider go? This was obviously his memory, Webb thought with a frown.

No, wait? Aristotle?

"What? Do you want to try it too? The red-haired middle-aged, or rather, the king asked with interest.

"Bucephalas won't let anyone near it." The young prince replied with a smile.

"Hah, even the name is ready?" The king laughed: "Then give you a chance to tame it, but only once." ”

So this little teenager is Iskandar?!

Webber was slightly shocked, and then relieved, after all, no one was born so big, everyone has a childhood.

However, now that he is his teacher, and Rider is still so young......

Webb walked over to Iskandar's bewildered gaze and flicked his finger on the door of his head.

"Boom-" The big black horse over there made a nasal voice that seemed to mock.

?? :?? :??

"Your Royal Highness, may I ask what if there is a locust plague and the grain production is reduced by 50%?"

Inside the rugged Macedonian palace, Iskandar, a little older, but still lovely, was obediently sitting on the second seat next to the throne, while Webber on the other side of the throne ignored the courtiers who spoke below and quickly called up this history of the time that had been skipped.

This is also Kenneth's experience, although there may be a jump in time or space in a dream, in fact, the history of this time exists in a dream, and as long as you try to remember, it can be reproduced like a magic projection of overlapping sizes.

It's obviously called a picture-in-picture, Weber complained while checking what time it was, there would be a locust plague - but no, the only recent major events were the defeat of Philip II's expedition, the rebellion of Athens and Thebes, Iskandar demanded immediate suppression, but the other ministers objected.

"Then the natural tax should also be halved, and the grain reserves should be used to help the victims." Iskandar replied immediately.

"What if a city is invaded by an enemy nation, but it doesn't have enough troops to fight them?" The courtiers who spoke continued to ask.

"Stick to the city and ask for help from nearby cities, and never take the initiative to attack." The red-haired teenager continued to reply without hesitation.

"So, what measures should be taken by King Philip II, who took with him half of the country's grain on his expedition to Byzantium, and who at this time could not be rushed back because of the defeat in the battle, and the rebels of Athens and Thebes, because of their good preparations, our troops could not resist for the time being?" The courtier, who had asked two questions in a row, considered himself invincible, and proudly asked the last question.

"Scare them!" The young conquest king said without thinking.

"You! You—" The minister's eyes widened, and then he rolled his eyes and fainted.

"Huh? Is it hard to understand? Iskandar commanded the guards to take the fainting minister away to rest, and continued to explain to the other courtiers: "We are a union of city-states, and if we allow them to become independent, what will the other city-states that have not yet returned to their hearts after being conquered? This head - can't be opened. ”

That's right, that's it, Webb nodded.

"It seems that you have agreed, teacher, so let's go with me!" Teenage Iskandar turned his face and smiled at Webb.

…… No, wait? Aristotle was a complete clerical!

?? :?? :??

"Your Royal Highness, please give orders!"

The next scene is already a military camp with people shouting and neighing, and from the sound of war drums in the distance, it can also be judged that the combined forces of Athens and Thebes have been set up to confront Philip II's Chinese army.

Even if Iskandar was happy to be in command, his father could not be reassured, and finally gave up the attack on Byzantium, paid some price and retreated.

"Order......" Iskandar was scratching his head to observe the overall layout on the table, the red and blue squares on it representing the total of 60,000 infantry and 7,000 cavalry on both sides.

As the defender, the Athenian and Theban coalition forces can be said to have found a good location, the right army is close to the river and the left army is strong, leaving only the main road as the predetermined decisive battle, but this unfavorable battlefield will not be stepped into even if Philip II is stupid.

The Macedonian Left Army, where Iskandar was located, was faced with the elite cavalry "Theban Holy Army" and many infantry that occupied the riverside plains and had sufficient geographical advantages, and there was no good way to attack it.

"Then just go straight to it—" "Smack! ”

The young Iskandar, who was about to simply give the order for the assault of the whole army, was knocked on the head by Webb with a fan.

"Teacher, you're knocking on me again—" The red-haired boy said pitifully with his head in his hands, and all the generals under his command pretended not to see it.

"I just understood what His Majesty meant by letting you lead your own army without sending veteran generals to follow," Webber shook his silver feather fan, and his long windless hair and furrowed brow silenced the generals.

I don't know what happened to the serial scheme that inexplicably appeared in the missing memory, but it was better to send it out as it was.

"Antigonus, lead all the 1,000 light cavalry to provoke the 'Theban Holy Army', retreat immediately if they pursue you, continue to provoke and harass if you return, and join the heavy infantry phalanx when you see the light of a floating fire on the river."

"Neakas, you lead all four thousand heavy infantry to confront the opposing infantry here, not to take a single step forward, not to take a step back - under any circumstances."

"Leonadus, you lead two thousand light infantry to advance towards the Chinese army to make a convergence movement, and camp here, and when you hear a huge sound of water coming from the river, you immediately attack the heavy infantry in the rear of the 'Theban Holy Army'."

"Brothers Cratertus and Cletus, each of you shall take a thousand light infantry, carry bags of earth and dump them here and make a dike, and if the other side sends light infantry to take them, you shall immediately retreat and join Leonadus."

"Also, if you don't know what to do, open them." Webb threw a small pocket to each of the five generals.

"Teacher? What about me? Young Iskandar asked with wide eyes as he watched Webber send all his soldiers away in an instant.

"Of course, it's to slap them head-on." Webber glanced at him: "No kidding, I'll be with you." ”

"Uh......"

————

The Macedonian princes' legions built dams upstream, but were seized control by the Theban Light Infantry Legion, who celebrated their victory by discovering that most of the "dirt bags" that had not yet been thrown into the water by the river were dry firewood and straw, and could not retreat after being ignited and set on fire.

Exhausted by the light cavalry of the Prince's Legion, the Heavy Cavalry rushed to the rescue, only to be dispersed by the flood water that rushed upstream along with the Light Infantry Legion, which had already built a dam to store water long before the battle began.

The flood also affected the heavy infantry corps on both sides, but the Macedonian side built a half-man-high diversion dam in advance, and only the heavy infantry of the Theban side were overwhelmed by the water and unable to move.

During this period, the elite warriors of the "Theban Holy Legion" attempted to intercept the Macedonian light infantry and the light cavalry corps, but were defeated by Iskandar, the son of the king of Macedon.

As the right army was routed so quickly, Athens and its allies were still testing Philip II's main army in the center, and they tried to move in parallel to maintain the formation in shock, only to see a prince's light infantry corps crossing the entire battlefield set fire to the mountainside, completely destroying the left army that was retreating from the mountain.

At the Battle of Chaeronea, the Macedonian legion suffered negligible casualties and nearly wiped out the combined Athenian and Theban forces.

48:49:27

"Wow!" Webb woke up in a cold sweat, looked at Iskandar who was still soaking in the spiritual power pool, and wiped his sweat silently.

It only took a dozen or so Shenwei wheels for that lovely young conqueror to become a bear, and he tried to hug Weber at the celebration feast - let Aristotle himself bear it.
