Seeing that the two of them were so quarrel that they were blushing and had a thick neck, and they were worried that they would cause trouble if they continued to argue like this, they shouted angrily: "What are you all quarrels? What's the use of quarreling now?

Now that the enemy is in front of us, we should unite and find a way to defeat them!"

The two stopped arguing, but they still looked angry.

At this time, an officer under Prous rushed over excitedly and saluted to Prous: "Chief, Alexey and Robiev are leading the army to come here."

When everyone heard this, they all showed a look of joy.

Prous looked at the enemy camp outside the city and said excitedly: "That's great! When the two of them come, we can turn defeat into victory!"

Alexey and Robiev were both leaders of the Slavs, with strength comparable to Hans. They came together, with a total force of 170,000.

These troops, plus the 160,000 to 170,000 people in Byzantine City, have a total force far exceeding that of Ma Chao.

Although Ma Chao's total strength is 120,000 or 30,000, most of them are Asian Minor runners with low combat power, so once the troops of Alexei and Robiev arrive, the power balance between the two sides will be completely reversed.

Prous knocked the wall with his fist and said, "We rely on the wall to hold on, wait for Alexey and Robiev to arrive, and then launch a full-scale counterattack immediately!"

Everyone nodded, and their previous fear and anxiety were all wiped out, and replaced it with an excited expression. It can be seen that after receiving the news that reinforcements were about to arrive, they regained their confidence and wanted to take revenge on Ma Chao.

The news quickly spread throughout the city. The Slav, who was originally depressed, seemed to have an injection of chicken blood immediately and instantly recovered his fighting spirit.

The originally dull city became noisy again, and the Slavs drank large bowls of wine and ate meat, as if they wanted to enjoy it before the war.

Outside the city, the Han army tent.

The scout flew into the tent to report; "Report to the general, his subordinates found the whereabouts of the large enemy reinforcements about 160 miles northwest of Byzantine City, and are rushing to Byzantine!"

Ma Chao frowned and asked, "How many people are there?"

The scout said: "It's hard to say the specific number of people, it's estimated that it's about 200,000."

As soon as these words came out, Rao, who was standing beside Ma Chao, was startled. He really seemed to jump up. He hurriedly said to Ma Chao: "Enemy, the enemy has actually brought 200,000 reinforcements! General, this battle is no longer possible!..."

Ma Chao's expression was dull, as if he was completely unmoved by the enemy's reinforcements of about 200,000. Rao felt awe and worried when he saw Ma Chao's appearance.

Ma Chao stood up and walked to the map. His eyes fell about 160 miles north of Byzantium, where there was a city called Assyrian.

The eyes moved south, and before reaching Byzantium, there was no decent city, which was full of mountains and hills.

Ma Chao frowned slightly and began to think.

At this time, Rao couldn't help but say, "General, although the combat effectiveness of the Han army is invincible in the world, the Slavic barbarians are also very fierce. Besides, their troops have increased so much, only 60,000 Han army will never win no matter what!..."

Ma Chao looked at the map and said, "Aren't you there?"

Rao uh, he couldn't speak immediately.

The day passed, and the next morning, the camp of the Han army outside the city was still as busy as before. The Asian Minor army cut down trees in the woods and then transported them to the camp to build various siege equipment, like a huge factory.

Prous and others stood on the city wall and saw that their opponents were still rushing to make siege equipment. Zege couldn't help but smile and said, "The Han Dynasty people must have not discovered that our reinforcements are coming yet!

They are still rushing to make siege equipment. I don’t think our reinforcements will arrive until they are ready!”

Everyone nodded, and Prous looked at the Han army camp outside the city and said, "Based on time, Alexey and Robiev should be only thirty or forty miles away from us at this moment. I believe they will arrive at the battlefield tonight!"

Then he thought, "Since the Han Dynasty people were unaware of it, we should be able to launch a surprise attack on them!"

As soon as he thought of this, he immediately said to his close confidants around him: "You, hurry to the army of Alexei and Robiev, and tell them not to enter the Byzantine region directly, but to detour to the northeast.

When they arrived, it should have been late at night. They told them not to rest and launch a surprise attack on the enemy outside the city while the night was dark.

In this way, you will definitely catch the Han Dynasty off guard!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they only thought Prous's tactic was really great!

Prous thought, "Their raid will definitely catch the Han people off guard, and our army will attack all the enemy forces at this time, and with Alexey and Robiev and others, even if the Han people are powerful, they will definitely be killed and wiped out!"

Time passed slowly in the anxious waiting of the Slavs. Finally, the sun set and the sky and the earth became dark. After a moment, stars filled the night sky, and night finally came completely.

After dinner, all the Slavs in Byzantine were dressed in full dress and prepared for the battle.

The city was silent, but there was an anxious atmosphere, and all the Slavs seemed impatient.

At the same time, the 170,000 army led by Alexey and Robiev had arrived in the hills less than twenty miles away from Byzantium like a long dragon.

The huge army winds like a giant dragon between the dense forests. The rumbling sound of horse hooves and the noise of speaking shocked all the animals along the way. The mountains and forests turned into noisy at night, which should have been silent.

The bearded Robiev looked forward and couldn't help asking the thin Alexey beside him: "How far is this far from Byzantine City?"

Alexey smiled and said, "I haven't been here again, how could I know?" His eyes fell on the messenger sent by Prous next to the two, and asked, "How long will it take to get to Byzantium?"

The messenger immediately said, "This place is not far from Byzantium. According to our leader's wishes, please ask the two adults to turn east before arriving in Byzantium, so as to raid the enemy!"

The two nodded, and Alexey couldn't help but mocked: "The Prous and the Hans are both our Slavic tribes. I didn't expect that they would suffer such a defeat at the hands of the Han people!"

Then he remembered something and asked, "How many people did the Han Dynasty have? They must have come with more than 500,000 people, right?"
