Chapter 805 Hostile In Progress

After leaving the mountain pass, Zhao Fubo did not go much far, but the straight-line distance from Milan was only about 30 kilometers, and the pass where Juliana led her army to ambush was about 50 kilometers. On the plain, his convoy and cavalry were not hindered.

Although this place is already in the territory of Liberty City of Milan, the lords here did not attack Zhao Fubo and his men.

Speaking of this, I have to thank the former consul of Genoa, Mr. Cristiano. Under the protection of a small team of guards, he and Wang Wentong not only gave these lords valuable gifts, but also allowed them to see the power of the guards' musketeers.

In fact, it should be called a rifle, but everyone feels that the name "musket" sounds more exciting. Therefore, the official name of the guards riflemen is the guards musketeers of the Great Song Yulin Army.

Therefore, the nearby lord forces stated that they would not participate in this battle, but they would express their strength at the right time. In fact, this is not necessary to be too clear. Most of the lords who are not in Milan are guarding the land. For them, harvest is more important.

However, the news that Cristiano and Wang Wentong led the meeting surprised Zhao Fubo. The lords almost unified their understanding was that pulley bows were good things and they needed a lot. Judging from the amount they planned to purchase, it was probably necessary for everyone in the castle to be handed over. If their farmers could afford them, it would be even better.

The same goes for this, it is true that the Rambo folding bow has higher attack power than an ordinary pulley bow, but it requires the treatment of ordinary arrow shafts with silk thread and fiberglass, which is not something that ordinary people can have. Relatively speaking, pulley bows that can use ordinary bows and can shoot long distances are more popular among ordinary people.

"They...they are all very friendly!"

Perhaps taking care of Cristiano's face, Wang Wentong was vague when he said it. Zhao Fubo did not investigate this deeply. He could guess it. Naturally, in the past, he first taught a lesson for several lords who felt good about themselves, and then... and then they became friendly.

He has to face many things now. At this moment, in the camp, except for the 2,500 cavalry under Manfred and his artillery team that he caught up with, almost all the other powers in his hands have been used. There is probably only a small team of guards around them.

For non-combatants like two old men and Alisa, Zhao Fubo really didn't want to keep them in the camp.

"I'll tell you two, why don't you go back to the castle behind with Alisa? You know maybe tonight..."

Originally, Zhao Fubo wanted them to stay in the mountains and not come out, or to the back, they had occupied the castle that had been defended by Genoa's army, but all of them were safe in the military camp.

"I know you want to drive us away a long time ago, don't be afraid. As long as you don't do bad things, I won't expose your dragon scales!"

Speaking of it, Zhao Fubo sighed in his heart, "How could he look like a high school student, he is obviously a spoiled little sister." Then he turned his head to look at Alisa, who was even more unbearable, and even tears were already in his eyes. However, Little Linda looked at herself with an unhappy look.

"Okay, if you like to stay in the military camp, but you can follow the command of all actions!"

In fact, Zhao Fubo is not worried about the safety of the camp. After all, 20 crossbows are placed here. As long as there are shells of this power, there should be no need to worry about in this world.

"Also, except for two old people, you all went to the field hospital to help. They only had a few more than 20 people. Once the war started, I'm afraid there would be not enough!"

In fact, Zhao Fubo was not worried about the safety of the camp. From this afternoon, he sent scouts from time to time. As waves of reconnaissance situation returned, the enemy troops in front of him were completely prepared. He looked at the red clouds that had become floating in the sky, and he probably would have another wave of scouts coming back soon.

According to his arrangement, the Yulin Army and the Musket Team had all been sent out. They controlled two ferries and the upstream and downstream near the Bo River to the north. Originally, Zhao Fubo and the others should have guarded the riverside and attacked them with a half ferry.

However, Zhao Fubo had another opinion on this battle. The camp was 20 miles away from the Po River, and he had other plans. He now wanted to know the other party's advance position and distance on the other side of the Po River. On the battlefield, the truth is only when you have mastered sufficient information and acted before you act.

Finally, the cavalry reconnaissance team that Zhao Fubo was waiting for appeared in front of him. They were all musketeers, which allowed them to come and go as the wind and have enough ability to protect themselves.

"Sir, the Milan army did not advance to the evening, they are starting to camp. It is estimated that they will arrive at our scheduled battlefield tomorrow. Moreover, they have sufficient troops, with 5,000 cavalry leading the way, and they are probably going to contact us tomorrow!"

Listening to the scout's report, Zhao Fubo understood that the enemy's vanguard had approached the distance of his ambush. According to the European tactics, if he fought with their vanguard, the army behind them would immediately expand the encirclement of both wings.

Although their cavalry may not be faster than their subordinates, if they are accidentally surrounded by their army, they may be able to defeat themselves and their subordinates by just using siege.

Listening to the scouts' report, the army led by Bishop Francis of Milan was nearly 10 kilometers away from the Po River, the largest river in Italy. Obviously, his plan was to let the forward cross the river tomorrow, and the army rested behind the river for another night.

The advantage of this is that after the second wave of troops crosses the river, they form a reliable front on the river bank, and the forwards continue to advance at the same time to ensure that in the future decisive battle, they can set up a formation and will not be attacked by the opponent.

The abacus is good, but Zhao Fubo does not plan to let them have a good rest these days. If those guys are full of energy, it would be too bad for him.

"It's a good thing to set up camp. Let the Yulin Army take advantage of their camping to trouble you. In short, let them understand that if they don't set up a solid camp, they won't have a good sleep. In addition, I will go to serve them in person to ensure that they can rest comfortably."

When the scouts were sending orders, the smart boy who had been following Zhao Fubo.

"Brother, can you take me with you? You know, you don't take me any of the night attacks on the road!"
