Leave Mattia behind, and leave 500 soldiers to guard the prisoners and supplies, and dismantle the coastal defense guns. Those that can be dismantled will be dismantled and shipped, and those that cannot be dismantled will be destroyed. The previous coastal villages or cities Yun Xiaohan
This is how they are handled. As the party with sea control, these coastal defense facilities are not needed. Instead, they may be recaptured by the enemy and reused.
Leaving behind a small number of merchant ships and transport ships, the other fleets continued to move forward with Yun Xiaohan. After walking for another 3 minutes, they discovered the second coastal city - Khalil City. Although this was still a small city, its population was
It is much larger than Cassis and Reloff, with a population of more than 70,000.
Yun Xiaohan tentatively let the long-range troops attack once, and found that there were still some defenders in the city, estimated to only have 2,000 people. This number was not many. Just now, there were 1,000 people in a huge village, and only 2,000 in a city of 70,000 people.
The number of troops on the left and right is obviously a bit low. It is very likely that the giant village and Khalil City just now belong to the same lord. When allocating troops, that lord mainly mobilized the troops of Khalil City.
Yun Xiaohan still has more than 4,500 men at this time, and the quality of the soldiers is obviously superior. If he really wants to attack by force, he still has a chance to capture the city, but if the enemy relies on city defense facilities to defend, the losses will probably not be small.
After some examination, Yun Xiaohan decided to give up attacking Khalil City and find other places where the defenders were weak.
The troops in Khalil City were limited, and they did not dare to leave the city to intercept Yun Xiaohan's troops when they wanted to leave. They could only watch helplessly as Yun Xiaohan's troops bypassed Khalil City.
After Yun Xiaohan's troops left, someone among the defenders in Khalil City proposed to recapture the village of Ansuai, which was the large village that Yun Xiaohan had captured before. The main general in Khalil City - "Bedimo"
I was a little tempted, but because I was worried that Yun Xiaohan's troops would return, I still didn't send troops after all.
However, this does not mean that Beidimo will do nothing and give up on recapturing the village of Ansuais. He just wants to wait for Yun Xiaohan's troops to move far away before sending troops, so he continues to hold on to the city while sending several teams of soldiers to conduct reconnaissance.
The movements of Yun Xiaohan's troops.
The Red Shirt Army's capabilities in reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance were much better than those of the enemy's half-hearted scouts. These pseudo-scouts were discovered by the Red Shirt Army not long after they followed up. After clearing out the two enemy teams of scouts, Yun Xiaohan
He asked Garibaldi to let the red shirt troops clear the wave with all their strength first, and then relax a little after he completed the division of troops, and continue to clear the wave, but not too fiercely, so that they can still observe their own side, but they must be separated from each other.
Observe from a distance.
After receiving the order, Garibaldi personally led the team to clear out the scouts. After he cleared out a group of nearby scouts, Yun Xiaohan took the time to start dividing his troops.
He first used signal spells to instruct the fleet to go ahead to find a simple landing point where ships could dock. It was enough to park small ships instead of big ships. Then he divided the army into two, leaving only 200 Guards cavalry.
800 people went to board the ship, and Morris, Insigne and other NPCs also brought 1,000 more elite troops to board the ship, and then transferred 500 red shirts from Garibaldi. Yun Xiaohan himself also
Leave with the team.
Garibaldi led the remaining 2,200 troops alone to continue southward, conducting tactical deception to make the enemy think that Yun Xiaohan's troops had completely left. This number of troops would be difficult to detect as long as the enemy scouts were not very close.
The problem is that the cavalry left 200 behind just to provide cover. The two signal mages, Yun Xiaohan and Garibaldi, each took one with them.
Although the Red Shirt Army can only be commanded by Garibaldi, after such a long battle, Yun Xiaohan discovered that there are loopholes to exploit. Garibaldi's [Father of Modern Guerrilla Warfare] talent can not only make the troops leave his command range,
You can still enjoy his command BUFF for the next hour, and the troops will be considered by default to be still under his command.
In other words, the Red Shirt Army was still considered to be under Garibaldi's command within one hour after they left Garibaldi's command range, and Yun Xiaohan and Garibaldi were in a relationship of master and follower. Therefore, it did not violate Garibaldi's command.
Under the premise of Bodi's established policy, Yun Xiaohan can give orders to the Red Shirt Army.
For example, the order given by Garibaldi to the Red Shirt Army was a general order to obey Yun Xiaohan's command, then Yun Xiaohan could command the Red Shirt Army.
However, it should be noted that Yun Xiaohan can only issue orders to the red shirt troops within this hour. After one hour, these red shirt troops will lose Garibaldi's command BUFF and act in full accordance with the established policy.
No longer obey Yun Xiaohan's instructions. After achieving their goals, the Red Shirt Army will return and seek to return to Garibaldi's command.
And if the previous instructions given by Garibaldi were to follow Yun Xiaohan's command, rather than the exact course of action, then the Red Shirt Army would simply give up the order and return on their own.
Next, Garibaldi slowed down slightly with 2,200 men to provide a cover for Yun Xiaohan's 2,300-strong troops. After Yun Xiaohan's troops were completely out of sight, he divided the red shirt troops into more teams.
Carry out intelligence isolation. Except for the enemy scouts following your own troops who do not push too closely, any enemy scouts who try to bypass will be killed.
However, Garibaldi's actions did not come in handy. The enemy sent out not professional scouts, they were very amateurs. They were satisfied with following Garibaldi's troops and did not try to bypass Garibaldi's troops at all.
mean.
Yun Xiaohan took the time to board the ship. At this time, he only had 2,300 people under his command. He did not need to carry supplies. He only needed people and horses to board the ship. There was no shortage of transport ships, so he completed the boarding quickly.
After boarding, the fleet immediately left the shore and quickly sailed to the village of Ansuais.
Although I had always known that Garibaldi's command range was very large, because Yun Xiaohan had never separated troops from Garibaldi before, he had no chance to test it.
The command range of NPC officials is based on their command potential. Since it is potential, it will slowly increase as the NPC level increases. Yun Xiaohan originally thought that no matter how large Garibaldi's command range was, it could cover a small city.
He was standing up to the sky, but he didn't expect that he and Garibaldi were walking in the opposite direction, but it was not until Yun Xiaohan saw the city of Khalil from a distance on the sea that the red shirt army escaped from Garibaldi's command range.
, the one-hour timer started.
In order to prevent the enemy from discovering it, the fleet had to make a large circle around Khalil City. Yun Xiaohan and others could see Khalil City from the ship, but the merchant alliance troops in the city did not want to see them, because
