It's a bit of a surprise, the enemy's main force is still outside the range of ten days, which William has repeatedly verified through various channels such as cavalry scouts, Cheka agents, and merchant teams, and this information is accurate, and there is no problem with it.

Now, however, the enemy's cavalry unit had indeed appeared in front of William, and William believed that there was nothing wrong with this information. Because soon he met these guys, these guys with a strong Turkic style, wearing chain mail, holding a scimitar, riding Arabian fast horses.

These guys are indeed Turkic cavalry, and maybe there are some other steppe nomadic cavalry mixed in with them, but that's not the point, the point is how these guys appeared, why they are here, and why these guys are here.

Soon, William didn't need to think hard, because these guys had already given William's answer. That is sabotage. Under the wild shouts of these roaring cavalry, the Slavites, who had not been trained in any way, soon became confused. The guys shouted and screamed. Lost their jobs and their tools. It was as if the Turkic cavalry would rush up and kill them at any moment.

The Hereford soldiers, on the other hand, were at the other extreme. The guys also dropped their jobs, then gathered as fast as they could, and then rushed through the rifles stacked around them, armed themselves as fast as they could, and then seemed to want to fight the guys.

However, whether it was a fight or an escape, the result was the same, that is, work, the work of building fortifications was left behind. Even William saw that some of the guys who were supposed to do this job, that is, the combat engineers, had left their jobs and were excited to fight.

However, those Turkic cavalry had no intention of rushing up to fight. At most, that is, forward, and then two arrows from a distance.

Instead, on the Slavic positions, they rushed forward and threw a device known as the Nafa Fire Cup.

The clay pots containing crude oil shattered and were then set on fire by rockets. The civil fortifications, the horses, the fences, the watchtowers, and so on, burned in the shortest possible time.

"Damn, these guys are here to delay our work!" William instantly understood what they meant. But helplessly, their goal has been achieved, and they have suffered heavy losses.

Soon after, the cavalry of the Hereford family arrived and dispersed the Turks - they had no intention of fighting the Hereford army. After seeing the cavalry of the Hereford family rushing up, he fled without hesitation.

This made the Hereford army, which was full of desire to make a big move, very unhappy.

There was a lot of commotion, and construction in the area was halted for several hours, and it was not resumed until the afternoon.

However, what has been burned cannot be restored. To make matters worse, the flames also spread to several cement structures that did not dry up, causing them to fall into disuse. If these concrete buildings are to be cleaned and rebuilt, I don't know how much time it will take.

"Really...... Bastard. ”

In the afternoon William received letters from several other areas, which were also attacked by the Ottoman cavalry. Either Turkic or Levantine, and there are even reports of Slavians and centaurs. Presumably the other side's newly recruited troops in the Tronica region.

The wrong course of action is very clear, that is, to interfere with the construction of the fortifications of the Hereford family's army.

It seems that the commander of the Dark Elves, most likely the Fatimid Sultan, is a tough opponent to deal with. She had anticipated the difficult points of the battle, and the tactics that the Hereford family wanted to execute.

She didn't plan to let the Hereford family build all his fortifications in peace.

Because she knew that if that was the case, then she would never be able to win.

That's it, it was very important to her to win something, and she knew that she had collected a lot of information, whether it was the initial Battle of the Vistula Estuary, which was an important turning point in the Second Great Frontier War, or the colonial war in the New World. Or the Battle of Magdeburg, which had just pushed Wilhelm's prestige to another height.

In these battles, the Hereford family, as the weaker side, won the final victory, and the most important thing was to defend.

And the defense relies on their distinctive defensive line and the arrangement of weapons and equipment.

Of course, there is another important thing to consider in order to achieve this goal, and that is the location and initiative.

The vast majority of people feel that the initiative is in the hands of the attacking side in the war, but in reality this is not always the case.

It's as clear as Willian's tactics are.

First of all, William will preemptively occupy a battleground for soldiers. Maybe it's the mouth of the Vistula, or Magdeburg, or, as it is now, the city of Kiev. So where the enemy has to attack and has to attack, then set up defenses.

And the enemy can only respond next, and can only attack.

In this way, the actual initiative was in the hands of William, that is, in the hands of the defending side. This is known as the active defense theory.

Although she is not very good at military theory or anything, she can still judge what William has done with her experience and strength. At the same time, she also knew that if everything went the way William had designed, then she would not have won anyway.

"Actually, everybody in the world has been deceived by this guy Willem von Hereford. ”

The female Sudan Fatima thought so in her heart.

"They just saw Willian win more with less every time, and Willian won big every time. But they couldn't see the efforts that William had made before the war.

When William's enemies fought according to his plan, in the place chosen by William, at the time chosen by William, and in the manner chosen by William, it already meant that they were defeated. ”

Thinking of this, Nu Su Dan couldn't help but show a pleasant smile: "Very good, very good, in addition to being a very good general, he is also a very good psychologist, and a very cunning tactician." I'm getting more and more interested in you, William von Hereford. ”

That's it, this dark elf girl Su Dan, who is becoming more and more interested in William, has formulated a-for-tat tactic against it-

Although, as William thought, it was impossible for her to give up Kiev. In any case, she wants to take control of the city and take it into her hands. However, this does not mean that she will honestly give William a chance to set up defenses.

In this respect, she is different from the traditional, human commanders of the human world.

Although the Ottoman Empire was an empire, a strong, commercial, industrial, and agricultural country that was very prosperous and prosperous, in fact the country still had a strong nomadic blood.

Whether it's the sinister and cunning dark elves, or the Turks who have come out of the steppes, or the Levantines who chase the oases in the desert, these people are by no means people who can follow the rules.

"That is, it is only natural to send some cavalry units to disrupt the construction plans of our army. ”

That afternoon, after returning to the barracks, William thought about it for a while, and then thought about the crux of it all.

"I'm still thinking a little simpler. William thought to himself: "Although that guy's on-the-spot command ability may not be high, but the cunning level is quite good, hehe." ”

Over the next few years, William made a series of adjustments, and his cavalry units began to take turns, patrolling, and driving and fighting the enemy. At the same time, he admonished the soldiers and comforted the local Slavites, telling them to build fortifications and defenses with peace of mind. At the same time, incentives and penalties have been enacted.

However, even if this is the case, the end result is not satisfactory. Someone harasses is not the same as no one. On a huge battlefield, no matter how hard the cavalry tries, there will always be loopholes. Even at night, at night, those guys will pop up. Set a fire, or shoot two arrows. While it won't cause much damage to the Hereford family's army, it will make the Hereford family's army even more tired.

Although William had arranged the system of rotation and rest as much as possible, and the soldiers of the Hereford family army, they were more or less familiar with and accustomed to the battlefield, and were unlikely to be disturbed by the slightest movement...... But.

However, the progress of construction has slowed down considerably. In addition to this, the fatigue level of the Hereford family army has also increased significantly. Especially the cavalry army, they were under the greatest pressure.

"Is this the enemy's ploy, not just to slow down our fortifications. What a ......."

William thought for a moment,

If you continue at this pace, you will not be able to complete your fortifications, and your army will become more tired. When the enemy's army comes from afar and kills in front of you, you will be in a terrible condition.

In such a bad situation, the probability of defeat will be greatly increased, and even if it is won, the cost will definitely be greatly increased.

"You can't do that. ”

William thought to himself.
