Three days!
The city of Ephesus spent three days suffering in anxiety and fear.
The Marquis of Welles would climb the city wall at least three times every day and look at the silver-armored army countless times.
He saw the other party setting up camp, and also saw the smoke rising from the cooking pot while the other party was cooking. He didn’t know what the other party was like——
The Peacock Kingdom is an extremely remote place. Since these people came from there, shouldn't they attack the city in the shortest possible time?
They have no rear at all, they only move forward!
It seems that their invasion strategy is to support war with war, just like Alexander the Great invaded the East.
But now they have actually set up camp and rested. Do they still want to waste it?
How can they compete with me?
However, seeing the other party set up camp, Marquis Welles felt much more relaxed.
"That's good." Marquis of Welles looked at General Hamill. "Every day we delay, our reinforcements will be closer to Ephesus."
"But we should not take it lightly. We can let the soldiers take turns to rest. If the enemy makes any changes, it will not be too late to enter a state of tension."
"Lord Marquis, do you want to send a small force to harass them?" Hamil asked.
Welles waved his hand: "No, if they want to invade the west, they must face the city of Ephesus. If they know that nothing can be done and retreat...this will be the most beautiful result."
"Hamil, you must know that this enemy army was a powerful being that wiped out Alexander the Great! If this enemy force hadn't wiped out Alexander the Great... our Seleucid Kingdom would not have had the chance to be established."
"I have returned to the Marquis Mansion, remember, just be on guard and defend to the death."
The Marquis of Welles left the city wall, and General Hamill looked over with his telescope. For a moment, he suddenly opened his mouth wide - he saw another army also wearing silver armor appearing behind the army. !
The two armies merged together, and then...until the sun set, he didn't see any movement from the enemy.
……
……
The commander's tent of the First Army of Daxia Army.
"You fought beautifully!"
Guan Xiaoxi looked at the three division commanders who had just arrived, and then said: "It seems that this country's military power has also made great progress. They have guns. Although the speed, range and power of this gun have increased, They are not comparable to our semi-automatic rifles, but they are still enough to threaten our lives."
"So I did not let the troops attack the city forcibly to avoid causing huge casualties."
"My opinion is to launch air strikes to destroy the enemy's defenses and create the most convenient conditions for the army to break the city. Do you think it is okay?"
Yu Dingshan thought for a moment and nodded: "I agree!"
The remaining nine division commanders also raised their hands to express approval.
"I think we will encounter many heroic cities in the future. What will hinder our progress in the future will be another problem...ammunition!"
Yu Dingshan said what he was thinking: "Although the semi-automatic rifle has great power in continuous fire, it also consumes a lot of bullets!"
"The other is the air strike. This thing is more powerful, but the bombs and bombs it consumes are also terrifying."
"If...if we haven't penetrated this continent and can't rendezvous with the Emperor's naval fleet, then we will be in an extremely unfavorable situation - we have guns in our hands but no ammunition!"
Guan Xiaoxi frowned in thought. The enemy's bullets could not match the semi-automatic rifles. There were no people from the Academy of Sciences among the people he brought. Naturally, there was no way to use local materials to build an arsenal.
This is another war whose time is unpredictable. No one knows how long it will last. If it takes two or three years, then the situation mentioned by Yu Dingshan will inevitably occur.
"In this case, don't the enemies also have guns?"
Guan Xiaoxi glanced at the ten division commanders and said, "Since war is the foundation of war, then after we capture the city, we will take away the opponent's guns and ammunition together!"
"Although this kind of rifled gun is not as easy to use as a semi-automatic rifle, we have used it before, and there is no need to get familiar with it. If it is not necessary, give priority to using the captured rifled gun and only use it when facing tough situations. Our gun!"
"As for the bombs and bombs used in air strikes, the enemy does have artillery, but we don't know how to improve it, so we can only use it sparingly. Our marching speed is not fast, so we might as well take away the enemy's artillery! ”
This method was accepted by ten division commanders, and then Guan Xiaoxi arranged the tactics for this battle——
At dawn tomorrow, the First Division will launch an air attack on the city of Ephesus. The main target of the air attack is the city wall. The Lu Linfeng of the Third Division launched the first round of raids when the air attack caused chaos to the enemy.
"Occupy the eastern city wall, and the Third Division will divide into two groups to press against the remaining walls. The Fourth Division's Chen Bingtai's troops will climb the city wall again and rush to the aid of the Third Division!"
"The target of the air strike was moved to the inner city garrison and left after one round of bombing. At this time, all our troops should have boarded the city wall."
"The Third Division controlled all the remaining city defense artillery, turned the muzzles, and bombed the inner city."
"The fifth division controls the city garrison, the sixth and seventh divisions control the southwest of the city, and the ninth and tenth divisions control the northeast."
"Then..."
Guan Xiaoxi pondered for a moment and looked at the map of the city of Ephesus drawn by Tianji Pavilion. "If there is a riot among the residents in the city, suppress it directly! The second division will take over the city's armory and material warehouse, and then wait for Peng The general entered the city with 300,000 retinues."
After the tactical arrangements were completed, Guan Xiaoxi did not say that the meeting was dismissed. He thought for a moment and asked: "You said...since this city is the western gateway of this country, if we occupy this city and don't leave...the enemy Will reinforcements be sent again? ”
Yu Dinghe grinned: "What? Commander Guan means that we use this city to consume the enemy's troops?"
"Well, isn't this considered our rear area? With artillery and supplies, wouldn't it be possible to destroy as many enemies as they come?"
"But the emperor meant to avoid war."
Guan Xiaoxi thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, he also said that he will not accept the order of the emperor... I will discuss this matter with General Peng after he arrives."
The next day, it was dark, and Hamil got up after only sleeping for an hour.
He came to the top of the city as always, raised the telescope and looked at the enemy's station.
The tents are still there, and there are even a lot of smoke rising.
Looks like another great day.
Suddenly, he frowned, and he saw many light spots behind the enemy camp - like lanterns.
"What is that?"
A moment later, as he looked through the telescope, his mouth opened wide in surprise. He saw those lanterns flying!
Those lanterns gradually began to grow larger in his telescope, and his neck tilted up involuntarily. He vaguely seemed to see a basket hanging under the larger lantern... There seemed to be someone in the basket!
The lantern is rising and getting smaller.
"Attention everyone...!"
Hanmill suddenly felt a chill instinctively, and he yelled: "Enemy attack, enemy attack...!"
