"Commander, are we here?"
The voice of his subordinates pulled Xu Ding back, Xu Ding looked around, there was no castle in front of him.
However, the castle Yijing was taken down, and it was Meng Yu who went south to command the battle, which was specially trained by Xu Ding.
Although all the troops going south to fight were small towns and forts, but because Meng Yu could use a little less troops, it took him a lot of brainpower.
So the exercise effect is also very effective.
Coming to the gate of the castle, Xu Ding took a look at this somewhat distinctive castle, Meng Yu said: "Commander, this castle has been on the west bank for more than 500 years, and it has always been the territory of the William family."
Xu Ding nodded slightly. Such castles are very common in Rome, just like the big men in the East, there are ancient cities everywhere.
In essence, there is nothing worth talking about.
So Xu Ding looked at the west bank and said, "Tell me about the situation nearby?"
Meng Yu said: "Commander, let's talk while walking, you will see it more clearly when you step on the top of the castle."
Xu Ding walked into the castle and went up one level at a time along the revolving ladder.
It has to be said that whether it is Rome or Greece, these ancient cities like to be built on the mountain, especially on the top of the mountain, with a road leading down the mountain and out of the city, using the cliff as a natural barrier.
Therefore, the organizational style can be imagined, mainly three-dimensional buildings, unless it is a really populous city, so the general city is very small and most of them are castles.
It forms a sharp contrast with the oriental flat extension architectural habit.
Meng Yu said while walking: "There is no Roman army nearby, and the people here don't seem to have received the news of our call. They seem to have been forgotten. When they saw our army coming, they thought it was the standing army of Rome. "
Speaking of this, Meng Yu couldn't help laughing, because he didn't bring down the castle, it was someone who took the initiative to open the city and let it in.
After all, the equipment of the rebel army was seized from the Roman army, whether it was weapons or armor.
In addition, Xu Ding carefully selected soldiers, with strict discipline and a well-organized team, which looked more Roman than the Roman army.
"In other words, there is no threat nearby, and the people here don't know the situation on the east coast of the strait!" Xu Ding and Meng Yuyi walked to the top of the castle. It is true that you can see farther here, and the whole strait is clear. more clearly.
However, the width of the strait is only very narrow compared to the sea, but it is too wide for the inland river, so you can't see the situation on the other side at all.
The vast strait can only vaguely see the mountains on the other side.
Meng Yu said: "My lord, this is not the narrowest place in the strait. It is difficult to find out what is going on on the other side. You have to climb the cliff downstream to see the appearance and topography of the other side.
The city of Troy is in a relatively flat land downstream on the opposite bank. "
Xu nodded his head, and said: "Have you brought someone over to see it?"
Meng Yu said: "I've seen it, and I can only see the prototype of Troy City. Soros's navy hasn't launched an attack on it yet. It may not have arrived yet, or he will soon arrive."
Calculating the time, the navy should have arrived earlier than the army. After all, the navy walked in a straight line, while the army walked in an inverted triangle. The distance was more than three or four times longer, and the road in Jiajia was not easy.
Even if the naval warship is moving slowly, it should be there.
Meng Yu was still worried that Soros would run away. He was the leader of the navy, the former pirate leader, and warships were their lifeblood.
Meng Yu was not sure if the planned strategy made the water army lose its warships, and it would be easy for Soros to run away.
Xu Ding said: "Soros should have his own ideas. After all, there should be a coastal city under Troy, and he might first capture a city on the east coast as a foothold.
Or he will send someone to land on the peninsula to get in touch with us. If I remember the map correctly, we haven't reached the southernmost tip of the peninsula yet, have we? "
"There are still some gathering places to the south, but it takes fifty miles to walk, and there is no road. The army can't go south. If you gather troops there, I'm afraid it will be extremely unfavorable to the shopping department." Meng Yu explained.
The infantry could still advance through the mountains and log with difficulty, but the cavalry was not easy to walk. Meng Yu just reminded Xu Ding in another way.
Xu Ding said: "Then send an army to the south, and attack if you can occupy it when you are free. Maybe the navy will gain a foothold there so that they can get in touch with us. Otherwise, they won't know where we have come."
The lack of information is just like this. Xu Ding can still know about Soros' recent situation through Moments, but Soros is not so easy.
In this era when no maps are prepared, it is really difficult for you to meet people at the agreed place.
Two days later, Meng Yu's troops captured the southernmost gathering place. Sure enough, not long after they captured, a small group of spies from the Navy also went ashore to search for information.
Then a small misunderstanding broke out between the two sides, and finally the sailors were captured alive.
Fortunately, Meng Yu got Xu Ding's explanation, and also intentionally observed and paid attention to the water army, so there was no dead person, after questioning, he realized that it was one of his own.
It is really that the navy is hiding too deeply, and the makeup is too much like the nearby fishermen.
The misunderstanding was resolved, and soon Meng Yu came back to report in person.
"My son, Soros still did not disappoint. He really came, and he captured Gokche Island as a base. In case we fail to attack Troy, we can retreat to this island." Meng Yu said: " Ross, just as you said, son, he wants to attack the lower city first, gain a foothold on the east bank, and go north to take Troy. I heard that Troy is a fortified city, and it is extremely difficult to take it down from the front, so he wants to play the role of a pirate to surround the downstream. City, call out the defenders of Troy."
There is no need for Meng Yu to continue talking later, Xu Ding also knows Soros' plan.
Siege and fight for aid, take the city if there is no aid, and take Troy directly if there is aid.
This is indeed a good method.
It seems that Soros fought all the way from the city of Naples, and he also has a lot of experience and insights on how to capture the city.
Xu Ding smiled slightly: "Then I know that the goods can lead the army southward. I don't think there will be good news from Soros in a few days."

A few days later, Xu Ding immediately received a reminder from Xiao Ba.
Soros' circle of friends published a new statement.
"Troy has been captured." Xu Ding called one of his men in and ordered:
"Notify the shoppers, tell him to go faster, try to get here as early as possible, we will cross the river tomorrow, tell him not to delay."
"It's the commander-in-chief, I'm going to deliver the order!"
Here, Xu Ding asked Meng Yu and the others to get ready, and then waited for the news from the other side. Half a day later, dozens of warships came from the downstream of the other side.
"Commander, we captured Troy in the past. General Soros asked me to pick you up!" They made it safely to Troy, and the warships came again to fetch the cavalry.
When Xu Ding and others came to Troy, Soros was no longer in Troy, and his subordinates told Xu Ding that Soros went south again to attack the downstream city.
This is because it is attached to it, and it will not stop until it is taken off.
Anyway, the infantry army for shopping around hadn't arrived yet, so Xu Ding and the others wouldn't be in a hurry, and it was reasonable to attack around.
