.Chapter 46 Setting up an ambush

The sunset ended the day's heat, and the slight sea breeze made people feel refreshed.

All day long, the killings seemed to have never stopped on the Cyprus island, but at this moment, the two sides in the war seemed to have reached a tacit understanding and were enjoying the sea breeze quietly.

Of course, this is just what it looks like on the surface.

After several battles, the Western Qin side, including the wounded, was only less than 900 people. It can be said that he could no longer experience any head-on battle. Fortunately, Batos was scared out of fear and completely disappeared from his former arrogance and domineeringness. The reinforcements on the island of Serbia had not arrived yet, which made Batos feel no confidence. Facing the Western Qin soldiers stationed outside the city, all he could do was pray that they would not launch an attack immediately.

So, at this time, Batos was unwilling to enjoy the sea breeze, and he was more concerned about whether Xi Qin was keeping a secret.

On the other hand, as the troops marched to Andaval, they took the initiative strategically and formed a threat, but they also knew that this was equivalent to putting it in a dangerous situation - leaving the protection of the fortress and being in the plain, it did not seem to be a good sign.

If Limaso's situation had not forced the Western Qin side to take the initiative, then Bai Zhou would not have made such a decision that was similar to death: it would not be possible to attract the main reinforcements of the Byzantines, but if he only stationed here and waited for the other side's reinforcements to attack inside and outside after the arrival of the other side's reinforcements, it would be a complete disaster for Western Qin.

"Retreat now, our plan has been achieved anyway." Wang Xiaobao said.

Originally, according to the ideas of Mengzhi, Winkrid and others, the Western Qin side only had to attack Andaval, forcing Bartos to ask for help, thereby alleviating Limaso's pressure. This was enough. There was no need to defend under the city, especially the terrain here, which was not suitable for defense.

There is a flat mountain under the city of Andaval, and even the most basic camp is difficult to build.

After all, everyone does not want to turn all these people into the rescue of Limaso - I am immortal and fellow Taoist. Everyone has not yet realized this fearless idea.

Of course, there is no Baizhou either, but for the Western Qin, there is no room for retreat, or in other words, retreat can no longer solve the problem, because the Byzantine reinforcements are on the road now. If the Western Qin evacuated Andaval now, and those reinforcements arrive, the Crusaders did not attack the city, but were just stationed. Then, as long as the opponent's generals have no mind, they will definitely understand a problem-the Crusaders here are just a small force and have no strength to attack the next city at all.

Facing the weak Andaval, even without the ability to attack, it is not difficult to tell how many people this Crusader landed.

Then, next, there is no doubt that they will definitely choose to return and continue to attack Limaso, which poses the greatest threat to the entire Cyprus. That is equivalent to what Xi Qin has done now, and it has become useless.

"We must fight this battle, otherwise, the remaining day will be difficult for Lun and Yarman." Bai Zhou surrounded the generals of Western Qin, staring at a map of Serbia that he had obtained from Justinian, and spoke.

"But the question is, we don't know how many reinforcements they will send. If it is one or two thousand people, it's okay. As long as Andaver doesn't attack us from behind, our soldiers will have the ability to defeat them," said Tuier.

"Bathos shouldn't dare to attack us." Meng Zhi chuckled. Although his smile was a bit forced that guy would not abandon his soldiers and escape alone if he had such courage. However, I think it would be impossible for the Byzantine reinforcements to only one or two thousand people."

"Yes, Batos originally had more than 3,000 troops, but we were defeated. That means, the number of reinforcements sent by the Byzantines will definitely not be less than 3,000. After all, as long as they are not stupid, they will understand that even three thousand people cannot defeat us. Sending only one or two thousand people is equivalent to delivering vegetables." Winkrid continued.

Although Batos sent only two thousand troops in the battle between Western Qin, it was obvious that people like Komuning would not think that the enemy could not be defeated by two thousand people. If Batos's entire army was suppressed, they could fight with three thousand. If they dispatch reinforcements, at least three thousand people would have to be 3,000. With the remaining soldiers of Batos, this is the number they would be assured.

The first time the people of Xiqin felt that after a refreshing victory, it brought a lot of trouble.

Although the Byzantines on the island are overestimating, the more pressure they can share for Limaso on the other side, they cannot ignore the limits of their tolerance here.

"We need to take the initiative and not defend so passively." Bai Zhou said. In fact, since he saw the terrain around Andaval, he realized that it was the stupidest way to defend on the spot in such a flat area, hoping to withstand the attack of Byzantine reinforcements.

"Yes, it's too passive to defend here. Since that's the case, it's better to take the initiative. At least, we can take the initiative." Winkreid echoed.

"We have less than a thousand people, and the other side must have at least three thousand people. It is simple to take the initiative, but we will attack them? What's more, we are not familiar with the terrain here. The right time, place, and people are not on our side." Meng Zhi also supported the active attack from the bottom of his heart, but these four words are light, so it is not so easy to do. As Meng Zhi said, the right time, place, and people are not on the side of Xiqin. If you launch an attack rashly, you will definitely lose more and win less.

"This is not necessarily." Bai Zhou's mouth rose slightly. If I expected it was not bad, Byzantine reinforcements would definitely have to travel all night. At night, if we launch a raid, the opponent's advantage in terms of number of people would inevitably be weakened."

"Oh, God, it's another night battle, I hate night battle," Winkreid muttered. Of course, he also knew that night battle was the inevitable choice of Western Qin now, otherwise it would be too late to wait until the opponent's reinforcements arrived.

“And, we are not completely unfamiliar with the terrain here.
