Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 8 Chapter 276: The insistence of Leo Tiddides

Sipros looked at the expressionless face of Leo Tizides, suspecting that the last sentence he asked was deliberate, because the main purpose of coming here was for the Katanai people to demand to repel the card. On the ruthless Carthage cavalry on the plains of Tania, he coughed and quickly thought of a new topic: "There have been no new reports for several days, and now what is the south of the Catania plain? One situation?"

As soon as the military is mentioned, the interest of Leo Tizides comes. Of course, the premise is that Cipros is the governor of wartime and is qualified to understand the whole situation. Leo Tiddides also needs to clarify himself to him. The next strategy was to get his support, so he reached out and asked Sipros to sit down.

Then, Leo Zidids pointed at the map and said to him: "In the past two days, the detective we sent out was not missing, or was injured and fled back. There was no new news at all. The Carthaginian cavalry. Not only did they destroy the Catania plains, they also blocked our connection with the south of the Catania plains. We don’t know what the situation of the Seventh Corps is now, and how about the situation in Paragonha. I don’t even know what happened to Leonidini. The only thing I know is that Tonys is surrounded by the Syracuse, but the Syracuse army does not have the full force to attack... This is the Clippers of the Sicilian fleet. I have to report it in a day, I believe you know it, and except this one"

On the wooden map, Leo Tizides ordered the new military camps in Patagonia, Hena, Leotini, and the Katanai not far from the north, and then in the west of Katane City. Draw a big circle with the south, which covers almost half of the Catania plains, and said in a solemn tone: "This large area has been completely obscured by the cavalry of Carthage, and we now do not understand the seventh in the south. In the case of the Legion and the Allies, they did not understand the position and movement of the enemy army. Therefore, under such circumstances, the army was sent out of the city to attack the Carthage cavalry. It may not be long before the city is out, it will directly hit the Carthagin army."

At the end of the day, Leo Tizides circulated the words to the previous question. Cipros didn't care. The words of Leotizides had made him feel the seriousness of the whole situation. He asked with some worries. "So according to your judgment, what can the Carthaginian army do now?"

Leo Tizides stared at the map, both self-blame and confidently saying: "Although I ignored... the huge Carthage cavalry will cover the entire battlefield, making it impossible for us everywhere. Getting in contact led to some plans that were not made before, but I can still guess the movements of the Carthagians. They are either attacking Paragonia or attacking Orienti because they only have these two. select.

After attacking Paragonia, the Carthaginians can not only get through the flat road from Kamanina to the Catania plain, but also facilitate the transportation of their rations, and they can also support the other surrounding Hena. A Carthage army, after all, is not too far away from Paragonia. As long as Hena is taken again, the southwestern part of the entire Catania plain is completely under the control of the Carthaginians. Their army can safely and boldly reach our city.

And if the Carthaginians attacked Leotini, as long as they captured it, the Carthaginian army would either continue northward, bypass Lake Leotini, attack our new military camp; or lead the army east, with Syracuse The people join together and try to attack Tonys. Once Taunis falls, their coalition forces will force Katane. ”

After listening to the words of Leotis, Sipros looked dignified, fell into thoughts, and then asked indefinitely: "Listen to what you mean, the Carthage chose to attack Paragonia most. ?"

It is the most capable chief executive of Sicily. Even if he does not command the battle, he can find the correct answer through his excellent political sense. Leo Tiddides nodded in his heart and said, "I think that although the Carthaginians And the Syracuse people have now united against our Dionia, but they have been fighting each other for decades, and the relationship cannot be very close, if Carthage chooses to attack the route of Leotini and Tonys. Then, most of its rations will depend on the Syracuse. I don’t think any commander of the army can completely reassure the food transportation line that is related to the military’s life and death to the allies who were a few years ago.

After the attack on Paragonia, the rear of the Carthaginians is completely controlled by their own people. They can not only attack us Katanah with confidence, but also attack Hena, Achillion, Herbita, and the whole west. The Kyle Mountains were occupied, and by that time they were threatened not only by Katanay, but also by Naxos and Sikuri, and the Carthage had a lot of room to choose. ”

Sipros was even more worried. He asked urgently: "Can Paragonia hold it?!"

Leo Tizides hesitated, and then affirmed: "Siplos adults, you should know that when the Carthaginians did not really fight a few months ago, we have already put Paragonia As a fortress against the attack of the Carthaginians, it has been continually strengthening its urban defense and building a large number of defensive facilities, so before Paragonia blocked the attack of the Carthaginians for several days, the Carthaginians even Did not break the periphery of Paragonia.

Originally, there were 2,000 Legion reserve soldiers in the town of Paragonha. In the past few days, the Seventh Army sent an additional 2,000 soldiers. For a small defensive fortress, these forces are sufficient. Even if the Carthaginians attack from its north, even if they send all the troops, they will not be able to attack in a short time, and what we need most now is to delay the time. ”

Sipros understood that Leo Tiddides was referring to the reinforcements of the coming kingdom, but he still seemed a little worried: "I don't know much about the military, and I don't know much about the current situation, but if it is passive. Beaten, hope that the Carthaginians will do exactly what we want, I am worried about any accidents!"

Leo Tizides looked up and stared at Shiplos, adding a tone: "Sipus really thought that I was just sitting at home these days, didn't do anything?!"

Sipros heard the dissatisfaction in Leo Tizedes's words, but he did not look and responded.

Leo Tizides looked at him coldly for a while, and continued: "This time the number of Carthage troops is much larger than us, and the combat power is not weak, the arms are also very complete, we really can't be positive with them. Confrontation, but this does not mean that the Carthaginian army has no shortcomings. Their biggest shortcoming lies in the transportation of military food!

Even now that the autumn harvest is over, the Carthaginians have already received food from the city-states on the south coast, and there may be assistance from the Syracuse people, but for such an army of 100,000 soldiers, it is still far away. Far from enough. According to my estimation, the food supply in Sicily may only last for a month or two. The Caratgie army needs the basic soil of Carat to deliver more food to them, but you see."

Leo Tizedes’s finger points to the iconic city of Carthal on the map, then crosses the western waters, goes to the west of Sicily, and then follows the southern coastline to Paragonia. The tone is still cold, but the eyes are obvious. There is a lot of light: "With such a long grain transportation line, it is difficult for the Carthaginians to guarantee its safety. After the Carthage army was attacked from the south by the attack on Paragonia, I decided that they would cross the mountains, so they contacted The Sikels let them organize warriors, sneak into the mountains on the southern edge of the Catania Plain, and wait for the sneak attack on the Carthaginian food team, but unfortunately... there are a lot of Ibbi in the Carthage army. Lia indigenous people, they are very good at mountain battles, so that the Sikel people have not achieved any results so far, but as long as the Sikel warriors have been active in that area, the Carthaginians have never dared to relax their vigilance, which will involve They have a lot of energy.

Moreover, Seclín led the Sicilian fleet to cruise the South Coast at the moment ~www.readwn.com~ As long as the Carthage's grain team was discovered, they could log in at any time and dispatched the fleet infantry to attack. I also negotiated with Seklelyn. As long as he feels feasible, I can transfer thousands of soldiers to him at any time, take the Sicilian fleet to recapture any city-state on the South Coast, and even capture the Phoenician towns in western Sicily... ... The bigger the Carthage army is, the faster the collapse of the army will be when the grain transport line is cut off. ”

Having said that, Leo Tizides looked at Sipros with his eyes open and said with a firm tone: "So we don't have to fear the aggressive attack of the Carthaginians. The village was burned down and can be rebuilt. The farmland was Destroyed, the land is still there, as long as we hold on to Katana, waiting for the opportunity, the Carthaginian army will expose their Aguess, until then, the right hand of Leo Tizides Next.

A moment later, Cipros smiled: "I am relieved to listen to Prosous, you are relieved. You can rest assured that I will find ways to appease the people."

After Sipros left, Leo Tizides was still looking at the map. His eyes were on the icon of Paragonia. There was a worry in his heart that he had not said it before: Paragonha could stick to it. how long? !

At this time, the deputy Taguglu came in and said: "Adult, Asidemis wants to see you."

The face of Leotizides sank: "I have told him a few times. Now, when the cavalry is attacking, how can he not listen?"
