Chapter Ninety-Three: Victory in the First Battle

Seeing the Macedonians retreating like a tide out of the city, Gould was overjoyed and immediately looked towards José. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

A smile appeared on Jose's face, but the young magician turned pale, and as soon as he took a step forward, his eyes suddenly went black, and he almost fell from the top of the city. Martin on the side reacted the fastest, and directly clamped Jose's body with his arm, only to find that the magician seemed to be using all his strength to support him from falling.

"Hold me up," said Joseph, pale, and whispered to Martin, "The Macedonians have just withdrawn, and they don't know when they will call, so if the soldiers defending the city know that I, a magician, have fallen at the head of the city, it will be ...... for the army There's always some impact. ”

Martin stopped talking, and looked at the young magician beside him with some surprise, and was about to say something, but Gould on the side had already reacted. He strode over to José's side, as if standing alongside him, but his left hand was secretly resting on José's right arm.

Then he laughed at the soldiers under the city, and said in a loud and deliberately heroic tone:

"The Macedonians have retreated! Brothers, with the support of our magicians and the thousands of soldiers in our city fighting to the death, what are the Macedonians in this mere area? Today, Mr. Magician has severely defeated the spirit of this group of guys, and we have killed and wounded thousands of their troops, and such a great victory is due to the bloody battles of your brothers! This battle will be won!"

The morale of the city was greatly boosted by these words, and the garrison waved the swords in their hands one after another, regardless of the pain on their bodies, and roared to vent the excitement in their hearts.

Gould smiled all over his face, but turned his head to look at Joseph quietly, and hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Joseph, are you okay?"

Jose shook his head, although the magic of the "Thunder Summon" just now was not small, it was also very mana-consuming, and a few thunderbolts came down, almost emptying all his mana. Thinking of this, Joseph smiled slightly, and gently turned a strangely shaped ring on his left hand. Suddenly, there was a surge of mana, and the mana consumed was constantly replenished into his body.

This magic amplification ring was given to him by Mage Clark when he returned from the elven tribe, and he could store excess mana in it on weekdays, but at most he could only store half of Jose's mana. At this time, he did not hesitate to withdraw all this magic power back into his body, only to feel a shock to his spirit, and the feeling of powerlessness in his body was also swept away, but he just felt a little tired, after all, there was only half of the magic power here.

Thinking of this, Jose straightened up, withdrew his hand, shook his head and said, "It's not important, it's just that the mana is a little consumed, and now I have added some of it, and there is no problem for the time being." ”

Gould saw that Jose's face had recovered a little, and he didn't need to help himself and Martin, so he immediately let go of his heart, and couldn't help but look at this guy with some awe:

The pale and languishing appearance just now suddenly became back to its original state. Tsk, no wonder people say that magicians are powerful guys, and today it seems to be true!

However, he also knew that now was not the time to think about these things, Gould glanced out of the city, saw that Macedonia had quickly retreated, and wondered if he should take advantage of the victory to pursue it, after all, he still had hundreds of heavy cavalry in his hands!

Seeing that his eyes flickered and his expression was a little hesitant, Jose immediately guessed what the fat man was thinking, and couldn't help frowning:

"I mean, fatty, you don't want to go after these guys, do you?" I know you have three hundred cavalry, but I advise you to dispel this idea!"

"Why?" the fat man asked a little strangely.

Seeing that he was puzzled, Joseph deliberately shook his head and said, "You guy, you are more than brave, but being too brave is reckless." Although the Macedonians had retreated at this moment, there were still thousands of soldiers outside the city. You may be able to kill and injure a lot of the defeated army in one swoop, but if these guys react and organize a rebellion. Although your three hundred cavalry are brave, can you swallow five or six thousand people at once?

And your cavalry are all heavy cavalry, if the two armies face each other, a hard charge, those Macedonian infantry ten tied up will not be as good as one of you charge, but now pursue the enemy. You are heavy and thick, and the impact is there, but it must not last. If the charge fails and is surrounded by Macedonia and trapped in an army of several thousand people, it will be a big trouble!"

"Mr. Chaucer is right!" Alok had already walked to the city at some point, he had been supervising the battle under the city before, although he did not kill the enemy with his own hands, but he organized soldiers to attack, his voice was a little hoarse at the moment, but his eyes were still shining.

Aloke's face was a little serious, and then Joseph said to Gould: "Not only that, haven't you noticed? These Macedonians are very different from the other armies we have encountered, and although these Macedonian armies in the past were brave in battle, they were not as crazy as these guys today!

What's even more strange is that although these guys have high combat effectiveness and morale, their weapons and equipment are no different from ordinary Macedonians, indicating that they are probably not elite troops, otherwise there will definitely be more and better armor weapons, although these barbarians are rough, but they are by no means stingy guys.

Although they were defeated and retreated, the formation of the army at the rear was still neat and orderly, and it could not be said to be a 'retreat' at all, at most a 'retreat'! Such a quality was completely different from that of those who were in a hurry and fled in a hurry.

Although these 8,000 people wore similar uniforms, I always had a feeling that it was like ......"

"The feeling of two armies being mixed together!"

Jose smiled slightly, and his eyes fell on the defeated guys:

"Although I don't know much about military affairs, I haven't fought with the Macedonians, so I don't know what is going on with them. But hearing this from Lord Alok made me feel that way...... These armies don't look like they're a whole army, they're like two different armies fighting together!

Of course, I mean the quality of their army, although each county has different troops, but these guys are not much different, but more like an army, on the contrary, the 4,000 reinforcements in the intelligence are naturally a complete flag army...... Looking at it this way, the situation is naturally clear!

The quality of these two armies is different, and the number of troops invested is also different! You are all fighting bloody battles just now, and you may not have a very clear view of the troops outside the city, but I have noticed one thing: The quality of the troops fighting in the forward and attacking the city is generally the same, but the main force in the rear is basically just using a wait-and-see attitude! A kind of condescending and even a bit of a tiger's eye!

That's right, it's like a pack of lions scaring a pack of wild dogs from behind, so that these wild dogs have to frantically gnaw down this wall!"

Alok listened to Jose's words, and his eyes suddenly showed a hint of essence, and by the time he finished saying this in one breath, the garrison commander had a look of surprise and appreciation on his face.

"That's a good point!"

Alok looked at the magician in surprise, "I didn't expect you to know so much at such a young age, and the last words, even I didn't expect so much! This analysis is reasonable and well-founded, but it is quite an intuition that only some old generals who have been walking and crawling in the army all year round, have you ever been in the army?"

Jose was secretly a little funny, I did spend a few days in Perry's army, but these things were learned by Lao Tzu in the military forums of the Celestial Empire for a few years and listening to those guys brag.

But there was an unfathomable look on his face, and he just smiled slightly, and said nothing more.

Gould also nodded at this time, looking thoughtful, and couldn't help but pat Jose's shoulder, before he said convincingly: "Mr. Jose, you are really not a simple person, I, Gould, have convinced you today! From now on, I will seriously consider what you say and treat you as the real boss! Haha......"

Joseph deliberately glanced at this guy and couldn't help but say, "Just now I dismissed your face in public, aren't you angry?"

Gould laughed, pointed to his nose and said, "You also think that my Gould's face is too thin, right? Besides, there is indeed some truth in what you and Alok said, and if you are wrong, you are wrong, and there is nothing to be angry about."

You told me this, I naturally understand the truth here, next time I will be smarter, know how to do it, if everyone is willing to point out my mistakes, then after Lao Tzu corrects it, wouldn't it be invincible?!

Hmph, what is Lao Tzu's face, how much is face worth, is it important to have a life? What I am most afraid of are those guys who watch you make mistakes and don't explain, and only laugh behind your back when you lose your life, if you tell me, I will only be more convinced of you!!"

The fat man's words landed soundly, which made Jose a little surprised, but he also knew that this fat man was a little superior, so he didn't say anything anymore.

Seeing that the Macedonians had withdrawn, the city head was also immediately busy, and a lot of things such as placing wounded soldiers and strengthening the city defenses were still waiting for him to deal with, so naturally it was impossible to stay here for too long, so he and the fat man quickly left in a hurry.

José stood at the head of the wall and looked at the Macedonian camp opposite, and his heart couldn't help but fluctuate, and he clenched his fists tightly.

"War, this is the ...... of war" (to be continued. )
