Chapter 110: Night Sleep (I)
In this way, whether the Macedonians should fight or not, there will be some apprehension in their hearts. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I guess that the Macedonians should shrink their forces in the next step and put the main force on guarding against and resisting the Moxi Army, after all, compared to us, the Moxi Army is their biggest opponent.
If the Macedonians really want to withdraw from Moxi, the final battle must not be against the small Boulder Town, but will concentrate superior forces and drag down the Moxi army. As for the guys on the other side, I don't think they want to spend their forces on this little boulder town. ”
Alok and Gould listened to Joseph's eloquent conversation, and they couldn't help but feel a little more confident in their hearts, but the calm Alok was still a little puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "However, we have already issued a war letter, and we have agreed to fight a decisive battle in three days......
"I said, this is just a statement, a temptation!" Joseph looked at Alok with a solemn expression, and then said slowly: "If everything goes well, these Macedonians will definitely be wary when they hear that we have agreed to a decisive battle in three days.
The best-case scenario is that within three days, the Northwest Army will overwhelm the border, so that they have to abandon the city. Even the worst-case scenario can drag on for three days, and if they still don't retreat, on the last night, we will concentrate all the forces in the city and attack their camp at night!"
"Attacking the camp, this is a good idea, if they don't retreat after three days, I will take my three hundred cavalry to the front, and directly take advantage of the night to kill into their camp!" Gould, when he heard this, he immediately said with a look of eagerness.
Alok frowned and said, "With our troops, a night attack is indeed a good idea, but the danger is still too great. The enemy was condescending on the mountain, and our forces were scattered, and it was difficult to form an encirclement. If we let them see our reality clearly and take advantage of the situation to fight back, I am afraid that the chances of winning will not be very ......."
Jose chuckled, nodded and said, "Of course I know your concerns, but who said we were going to have to fight them!"
Alok frowned, and said with some confusion: "Then you want to ......"
"Frankly, I think that even with a night attack, we still have too few troops, so I didn't even think about eating this Macedonian army.
And don't you notice, the Macedonian army on the other side is very clever, they stationed their army on the hill from the beginning, just to avoid being attacked by the defenders of our city. After all, there are not many people in our city, and it is difficult to compete with them openly, and if we are in a hurry, it will be troublesome to sneak attack and harass them at night, so we simply stationed the camp high. ”
Alok nodded, and even Gould had a thoughtful look, they were all veterans in the army all year round, and this was very clear.
"So I think the other party's general should be a cautious guy, in that case, we can do something about it. Chaucher went on to say:
"Today, when I went with Gould to write the war book, I took a look at the Macedonian camps from a close distance, and their three camps were very close to each other, but the deployment of troops was very different. The camps on both sides and the Chinese army camp defend each other, and they can combine forces, but the middle camp is densely populated, and it seems that they are all elites, so they are the most solid, but there are very few soldiers on both sides, which also proves my previous conjecture that this should be two armies. ”
Gould also nodded at this time and said: "The leading general said that he was from the Macedonian Sixth Corps, and I fought against the Macedonian Sixth Corps when I was in Sadrand before. Today, it seems that both in terms of the quality of the army and the uniforms and equipment, it should be correct. ”
Alok pondered for a moment and said:
"As far as I know, the Macedonians have put in a total of three legions this time, plus the Bacellusen Golden Armor, the total strength is roughly about fifty or sixty thousand. Although there are only 30,000 or 40,000 garrisons in the counties outside our gates, they have the advantage of defending the city, and even so, the situation has fallen to such a point.
The reason for this is in addition to the fact that the Moxi Army is about to change its commander in battle, and the unstable morale of the army leads to a large number of chaotic troops and internal contradictions. A big factor lies in the quality of the Macedonian army, not to mention the golden armor of Barcelus, in the first battle of Sadland, the Macedonian army was only more than 10,000 people, but it took only three months to take Sadran and the city of Modo. Almost ate more than 20,000 defenders in the two county towns, and its strength was indeed not something that those regular garrisons outside my Moxi Pass could resist. ”
Jose nodded, in the siege battle a few days ago, he did see the fierceness and skill of the Macedonians, and the defenders in the city were able to force them back, completely relying on the city walls and the leadership of Alok and others. If you encounter these guys in the field, I am afraid that after one face, these two thousand people will be eaten by these Macedonian troops.
"So, even if it's a night attack, I'm not prepared to go head-to-head with these guys, so the casualties are too big, and it's easy to be eaten by them if I'm not careful. Therefore, the night attack I mentioned was just to disturb their morale and let them leave as soon as possible. But in my opinion, since the Macedonian generals who led the army were cautious fellows, I am afraid that they will withdraw in the next few days.
Gould, you have sent more scouts in the past two days to keep an eye on the Macedonian camp for me, and if there is any movement, come and inform me immediately. At the same time, he immediately made me 10,000 torches, and then urgently dispatched 3,000 people from the city. Even if you are old, weak, sick or disabled, as long as the number of people is enough for 3,000, no matter what method is used!
At the same time, all the garrisons were informed that all the soldiers, except for the soldiers of the patrol and the security department, would rest for half a day every afternoon, and watch out for the Macedonians at night these days, and if they were to evacuate, hmph, we must do the friendship of the landlords......"
............
That night, the Macedonian camp was lit up as usual.
It wasn't until midnight that the lights in the barracks were slowly extinguished, and only a few bright lights remained, and a group of patrolling soldiers walked around the camp and then entered the camp again.
However, after the patrol soldiers entered the camp, they did not continue the training, but ran directly to the school field in the middle of the camp. At this moment, the school field is full of neatly equipped soldiers, densely standing all over the school field, and it seems that there are probably three or four thousand people!
At this time, Kakar, a Macedonian general, stood in the center with a serious face, looking at these silent more than 4,000 soldiers. In the afternoon, the three camps had already given the order to retreat, and at this moment, in the other two camps, the Macedonian soldiers totaling nearly 7,000 people were ready to go.
It was only then that Falusi slowly walked out of the tent under the escort of a group of burly warrior guards. He was dressed in a large coat of animal skins, without any armor, and with only a bone staff in his hand.
The young nobleman glanced at the assembled soldiers, nodded calmly, and Kakar on the side saw this, and gave orders to several officers on the side, and the team of people immediately mobilized.
This Macedonian army, which numbered several thousand men, had no noise except for the footsteps of the army as it walked! The whole army retreated silently into the thick night like a nocturnal wolf...... (To be continued.) )
