The King of Knights in a Different World - Chapter 428
Today he is not even in the mood to smoke cigarettes.
Before the battle report came, he had never thought that Lucifer was targeting reinforcements instead of the king’s city.
In his opinion, Lucifer should be able to quickly capture the royal city on the side of France as before.
But now…one step is wrong, step is wrong.
“You thought that you should go back to rescue Wangcheng as soon as possible.”
Alexander glanced at Weber and said.
“My previous suggestion was to build on the condition that the royal city can be defended, but the royal city may be lost right now.
In the worst case, we are stuck in Helen.”
“If we abandon Macedonia and continue to develop with Helen as the foundation, can we find a way to make a comeback”
Alexander said a possibility.
“It’s difficult! If news of the British occupation of Macedonia reaches Helen, let alone what happened in the country, the king Helen just surrendered will definitely have two hearts.
Only half of Helen can’t support our current army of more than 500,000.
There is also the surrendering army of Helen’s native.
Our current military strength is close to 700,000.
but……”
Webber’s expression was a little embarrassed.
“But I can’t show my strength at all.”
Alexander naturally knew what his army was like.
In fact, it is a bit difficult for him to command this huge army.
Prior to this, the army he commanded was only 300,000 at most, but now it has doubled.
There will be trouble if there are too many people.
“Yes.
If the current 700,000 army were all like Britain before, it would be enough to sweep the entire Helen.
Not to mention the British army before, even the elite Macedonian soldiers are the same.
But our previous assault was a bit expensive.
If we are trapped in Helen, sooner or later the army will collapse on its own.”
Weber calmly analyzed.
The reason why they were able to attack like this before was because their first force was always around 200,000, and the back was the reserve team.
Wait until the person in front has sacrificed, and then make up for it later.
If you really pull out half a million people at a time without fighting, they will be messed up.
Not to mention the need to bear the food problem.
Without Macedonia’s supplement, their army might starve to death.
In fact, once the Macedonian King City falls, the entire Macedonia may surrender on a large scale.
Then they will lose their choice.
They had only one choice left, and they forced a decisive battle with Lucifer.
But this premise is that Helen can’t make trouble in the decisive battle.
no.563 Rebellion is tradition
Considering that Lucifer entered Macedonia’s army first, there should not be too many.
Alexander immediately decided to bring 300,000 elite troops back to Macedonia, leaving nearly 400,000 ordinary legions in Helen to suppress the remaining Helen Alliance.
At the same time, Alexander also accepted Weber’s suggestion and took Lucifer’s previous methods as a reference to bring all the kings who had previously surrendered with him.
Let their relatives temporarily take care of the territories occupied by Helen.
Without these…King, there shouldn’t be too many rebellions within Helen.
He then appointed Attalus as Helen’s acting governor to continue the battle against Helen’s coalition forces.
After finishing the order, Alexander immediately returned with the army.
However, he received bad news just after crossing the border between the two countries, that the King of Macedonia fell.
Aristotle fled to the border with 10,000 people to join Alexander.
And explained in detail what he knew.
After waiting for this period of time, Lucifer’s total force in Macedonia has reached as high as two hundred and fifty thousand, and the sea fleet has not seen anyone for the time being.
Lucifer followed in Aristotle’s footsteps to the Rozval line to form a confrontation with Alexander.
In this way, Alexander’s main line was forced to be compressed in a small space to the south.
However, while Alexander was still thinking about how to break the enemy, bad news came from the other side.
A batch of grain delivered from Helen was intercepted as it passed the border.
All three thousand people who gave food were killed in battle, and the food was burned.
Although there is only 300,000 army of food for ten days, it is enough to make Alexander headache.
Since he can’t move forward, he cannot collect food on a large scale.
So it can only be sent from the rear.
Originally, his 300,000 army only brought one month’s food for the marching speed, and the food after that was planned to be shipped slowly.
But unfortunately something like this happened.
When he was having a headache, he could only send someone another…a batch.
However, the five thousand people 5,000 sent this time were intercepted and killed, and then sent out twice.
Even an army of 10,000 people was intercepted, and Alexander finally felt something wrong.
At first he thought that the mysterious army was a rebel who dissatisfied him in Helen.
But it seems that it is not at all, those people can’t have such ability.
“Who is it?”
Alexander thought for a long time but didn’t realize who suddenly appeared behind him.
Lucifer was right across from him.He sent many people during this time, and he never noticed the other’s actions.
“The only thing I can think of may be the British naval forces.
After they gave up Salgar, they might come to Helen.”
Webber’s face was a little ugly at this time.
“I have the same view.
This step is quite insidious.If they keep attacking our food road, we will soon see the bottom of our food.
At that time, even if the Knight King does not attack, we will collapse without fighting.”
Aristotle said the same.
“Don’t fight us head-on, but attack the grain road behind.
The knight king’s tactics are getting more and more disgusting.”
Alexander’s expression was so bad that he hit the table with a punch.
If it was a head-on battle and lost, he was convinced.
That’s it, but now, Lucifer is just a soldier, without the idea of proactively attacking, instead, he keeps sending people to attack his Liangdao.
This is the first time I saw Alexandria.
“It was disgusting, but we didn’t do it.
Can send a large army to **** food.”
Weber thought for a while and came up with a solution.
“There is only this way.
I have the ability to beat me head-on, but now I’m doing small moves here.
If this goes on, I won’t be reconciled to lose.”
Alexander did not refute.
If 10,000 can’t be given, then 50,000 will be used.
“I think the Knight King has other considerations.”
Aristotle’s expression is also very bad.
“What to consider”
“Rome.
Even the Sun King and the Hero King.
If I’m not mistaken, his goal from the beginning was…Macedonia and Rome.
He wants to use Rose’s hand to wipe out the two biggest threats before him in one fell swoop.”
Now Aristotle can see Lucifer’s strategic direction clearly.
Before, he thought Lucifer would solve Rome first, and then find a way to attack Macedonia in three ways.
This should be the most ideal way.
But now it seems that Lucifer’s appetite is bigger than expected.
“How long will we have enough food for?”
Alexander asked the question of greatest concern at the moment.
From the initial march to the fact that the food has been attacked in the previous few days, he is not sure how long his food will last.
“Ten days.
If there is not enough food, we will have no food available in ten days.
The Knight King wanted to use this trick to force us to take the initiative to attack the fortress.
It’s ironic, the fortress built by Macedonia to defend against foreign enemies has now become a wall blocking me.”
“Let Antipater go back, and with Attalus, lead fifty thousand and send…a batch of food.”
“Yes!”
“Take advantage of this time, we have to figure out a way to defeat the Knight King.”
Alexander’s order was issued soon.
There is no problem with the delivery process, but the problem is after that.
Trik City in Helen, this is the current office of Attalus.
In fact, after the half of Helen was killed, he has been in charge of doing logistical affairs here.
During this period of time, he has gotten acquainted with Helen’s local nobles.
Now when Alexander left, he was…half of Helen’s king.
He enjoys this feeling very much, of course, except for the situation where the food was robbed before.
After receiving the order from Antipater again, his expression was a bit ugly.
The inventory has been shipped out, and now it will be shipped again.
Then you can only go directly to the people to grab it.
After nearly half a year of war, the situation among the people is also a bit bad.
