Ling Zifeng didn't want to ruin the good situation because of carelessness, and the matter of reinforcements was careless. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, in ancient times, it was not easy to transmit information.

Therefore, he suggested that everyone set up a beacon tower in the direction of departure, following the practice of King Wu of the Western Zhou Dynasty in ancient China.

After explaining the benefits of this approach, Prince Ganesa agreed that the beacon tower should be erected along the road when the people left the royal capital.

At the same time, the prince of Ganesa also sent envoys to set up beacons for friendly Greek city-states such as Sparta, so that there was no worries.

The city wall destroyed by Ling Zifeng was naturally repaired in the shortest possible time, Ling Zifeng would not be lucky, he knew that the enemy might counterattack at any time, otherwise this reincarnation mission would be too simple.

The question is, could the Lord God make the task that simple? The answer was self-evident, so Ling Zifeng and Prince Ganesa began to set up defensive measures.

Reinforcing and raising the city wall or something, it seems unrealistic at the moment, because the Persians don't know when they might counterattack, don't strengthen half of the enemy and come, that's funny.

Therefore, at Ling Zifeng's suggestion, they recruited a large number of people and dug a moat like an ancient Chinese city.

Because of the special geographical environment of the city of Babylon, there was a large swamp in the south, and the cliff in the north was unclimbable by man, so the moat only had to be excavated on the east and west sides.

It took less than a month for tens of thousands of people to connect the east, south, and west directions, and a barely existing moat was built.

Then, Ling Zifeng led the Babylonians to set up hundreds of oil pots on the city walls, which were naturally prepared for the Persians.

The Babylonians were shocked to see his endless stream of strange fortifications, for they had never seen such strange things.

This is not surprising, the ancient Europeans fought straight to the war, and the siege of the city was at most a bit of trebuchet, ramming vehicles or something, and defending the city also relied on the honest resistance of people.

Compared with the various offensive and defensive strategies of ancient China, it is too far behind.

。。。。。。

Three months later, the sideline is urgent!

The Persian throne has been inherited by the four princes, who claim to have led an army of 400,000 from the east to the city of Babylon, claiming to put down the rebellious Babylonian army.

Now the defenders in the city are less than 50,000 and it is very critical, and the prince hurriedly asks for help from all sides, thanks to the beacon tower that was set up at the beginning, and everyone immediately set it on fire.

Looking at the raging beacon fire, Ling Zifeng felt that the current form was still very unfavorable to the Babylonians.

Prince Ganesa also said that although the message should have been conveyed earlier than the usual method. But when the horses gathered, the fastest reinforcements would not arrive until ten days later.

Other reinforcements and requests for help from Greek city-states such as Sparta may have to wait for about half a month.

However, because the Babylonian borders were not yet well defended, the Persian army would not be hindered too much, and they would be able to reach the city within ten days.

Reinforcements take at least half a month, while the enemy only needs ten days, and the urgency of time is clear in comparison.

Ling Zifeng couldn't help but be secretly worried: "I didn't expect so many people from Persia to come!" With the strength of Babylon's defenders, how many days can they hold out?

"Even if there are measures such as moats that have been made in advance, it seems that it will not be enough, if the Persian army will storm it at all costs。。。。。。。"

"Perhaps, I can't even hold on for three days!"

And when the Persians saw the beacons along the way, they soon understood that the Babylonian reinforcements were coming, and they would inevitably speed up their march, and they would certainly come much faster than expected.

Therefore, the odds of them choosing to attack are very high.

"How can this be?。。。。。。 How is it good? ”

The anxious crowd gathered in the palace hall, they all had the same worries as Ling Zifeng, and they all had sad faces, and they couldn't do anything for a while.

Ling Zifeng also frowned, thinking about his [Final Occupation Mission].

He knew in his heart that he couldn't stay in this world all the time, and if he wanted to answer the main god space, he had to snatch the luck value. And if he wants to get the luck value to escape, he will definitely not be able to escape, he can only face these problems that stop in front of him.

Babylon was unstable, so his luck was not up to par. And the root cause of all this is the prying eyes of the Persian Empire.

Ling Zifeng had to find a way to stabilize the Babylonian state and make the Persians no longer a threat. However, the biggest problem now is the time lag between the Persian army and the Babylonian reinforcements.

It was inevitable that they would take Babylon before reinforcements arrived. In response to this fact, there was even a proposal to abandon the city of Babylon.

Of course, this countermeasure is very unreliable.

Not to mention the demoralization that will be brought about by escaping, even those vassal people in the northwest who have just established themselves are afraid that they will also make some changes because of this.

Running away is definitely not possible. But the defense and the insistence on the arrival of reinforcements. In the dilemma, everyone did not discuss a suitable countermeasure.

Today's parliament is over.

Ling Zifeng also left the hall in a depressed mood, intending to analyze it alone and see if there were any flaws in the Persian march.

Back in his room, Ling Zifeng secretly thought, "In order for the Persian army to arrive here quickly, their marching array must be a long snake. And there must have been a vanguard before the march of the army, which was generally dominated by light cavalry. ”

"Hussars, cavalry 。。。。。。。"

Suddenly, Ling Zifeng's eyes lit up, and he thought of a very bold plan.

He left his room in a hurry and went straight to Prince Ganesha.

"I have a plan! It may be dangerous, but at least it's a plan~ it's better than waiting."

Under his explanation, the prince raised his own questions about a few doubts that he had not figured out.

"You said that you want to use five hundred light cavalry to attack the Persian army along the way, I don't quite understand what the effect is, you must know that the troops of hundreds of people can't cause any damage to the group army of hundreds of thousands, isn't this sending you to death in vain?"

Ling Zifeng shook his head and said, "The cavalry I need is good at salvo archers, because your current cavalry is equipped with stirrups, and the archers can perfectly draw the bow and shoot arrows on horseback." ”

The prince still couldn't fully understand, and asked suspiciously: "Even if it is an archer, what method can be used to face the Persian army?" ”

Ling Zifeng said: "There is a Mongolian people in our hometown, and they have a powerful bow and cavalry tactics. They are invincible in the world, the enemy retreats and I advance, and the enemy chases and runs. To put it simply, it is a means of hitting and running, and the lethality is very terrifying. ”

The tactic that Ling Zifeng said was the Mongolian cavalry that killed the Europeans who were terrified. They can turn around and shoot at the enemies they follow when they retreat quickly. That is, the mounted archer shoots arrows at the enemy in the rear while fleeing.

The essence of this tactic is that you can attack the enemy from a long distance, or you can attack the enemy continuously without giving the enemy a chance to fight back.

No matter how strong the enemy's spirit and armor may be under such an attack, it is only a matter of time before it completely collapses.

The prince was puzzled: "Is there such a thing?" But there are also archers in the enemy ranks, so don't you worry about the archers being shot? ”

Ling Zifeng smiled mysteriously: "That's why I want to bring your sister, she and I can provide protective shields for the troops, where can ordinary feather arrows help us?" ”

The prince pondered for a moment, seemed to be a little moved, and then continued to ask, "There are also light cavalry in the vanguard of the enemy's ranks, how are you going to deal with it?" ”

Ling Zifeng said with a smile: "The team of light cavalry is not suitable for attacking the city, they will only occupy the main roads along the way, we don't have to pay attention to it, and when we encounter it, we will turn around and run." ”

The light cavalry did not bother, and the large force of the enemy must have been the serpent troops.

This formation is the easiest to harass and attack from the flanks. Ling Zifeng's biggest purpose was not to kill the enemy, but to limit the marching speed of the large army.

The prince listened to what he said, and secretly felt that this method was feasible. Therefore, he ordered the dispatch of five hundred soldiers who were best at cavalry and archery to Ling Zifeng's full command.

Everyone packed up and prepared, and Ling Zifeng took Mo Sandi to the school grounds. Seeing that the five hundred cavalry here were already ready to go, but when he looked closely at the cavalry's outfit, he couldn't help but shake his head and was speechless.

It turned out that these soldiers were still wearing thick leather armor and carrying plenty of food and grass, as if they were going on an expedition.

"How can this work?"

The archers pay attention to the word "light", like they press heavy things on the back of the horse, so how can the war horse run fast?

So, Ling Zifeng shook his head and stepped forward and ordered: "Everyone should keep five days' rations, as well as longbows, feather arrows, and sabers, and everything else, including the leather armor on your body." ”

As he spoke, he took off his Spartan heavy armor and put it into the space bag, wearing only a light single coat, and the long sword and heavy shield were also put into the bag.

All he carried with him was a hardwood bow and dozens of feathered arrows, as well as his wand and the Philosopher's Stone.

The soldiers couldn't help but look at each other when they listened to his unbelievable order, but where could they question the military order, and they followed Ling Zifeng's example one by one and went into battle lightly.

In order to let their bows and arrows shoot farther, Ling Zifeng also found a way to attach several feather arrows to each of them one by one; A meager hint of wind magic.

It was this move that made his current mana suddenly empty, the number of enchantments was too large, and his current mana was still a little reluctant, but it was enough.

The five hundred archers marched to the east under the leadership of Ling Zifeng, and not long after leaving Babylon City, Mo Sandi came over and asked in a low voice: "Brother Ling, you let them throw away all the grain and grass, what will they eat in five days?" ”

Ling Zifeng smiled and said: "There is a song in our hometown, and one of them sings like this: "There is no food or clothing, and the enemy is sent forward!" ”
