In the northwest of Guader City, there was a huge monster hanging in the air, which was the largest hot air balloon airship in the Liang army. In the airship hoist basket, Feng Yu, Zhao Yun and several other Liang army generals stood.

They overlooked the earth from the sky of nearly two hundred battles. The weather was clear, and the city on the ground could be seen clearly. Even the ants-sized ants could be clearly visible to the naked eye.

Zhao Yun pointed to the lower side and said, "Master, we have now investigated the enemy situation. There are seven enemy camps near Guader, three miles closest to Guader, and the farthest one is only nine miles away. Their camps look scattered, but in fact they are divided into two groups, distributed in triangles with Guader City, supporting each other, protecting the east and west wings of Guader City. In this way, when a battle occurs, they can support each other, and be attacked at one point, and the other two points will come to support. Most of these camps look at a maximum of one thousand to two thousand soldiers. Only these two camp communities have a large scale. If they are full, there should be more than ten thousand soldiers and horses. We have now corresponded to the lower camp and cut off their connection. However, in this way, we cannot concentrate our troops to attack Guader City. At most, 30,000 soldiers will be freed up to siege the city."

Feng Yu said calmly: "Thirty thousand feet are also the same. According to my observation, there are only less than ten thousand soldiers in their city."

At this time, Wei Yan, who was standing beside him, said: "I ask Your Majesty for your order, and I am willing to climb the army first to attack the city and to be defeated before the disaster."

Feng Yu shook his head and said, "No hurry, we have to wait for our Western Navy to come. After they arrive, we will attack together on land and water, and we will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Zhao Yun's eyes hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help saying, "Your Majesty, according to the time you issued a military order to the Western fleet, they would have to wait three or four days at the earliest to arrive. If we cannot quickly capture Guadal Port, will Persis, who gathered heavily, send a large army to aid?"

Although he was in a questioning tone, he was actually reminding that if he didn't seize the time to capture Guadal, the Persis, who had gathered more than 200,000 troops, could move south at any time, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Unexpectedly, Feng Yu still said indifferently: "Zilong, don't worry. Persis's Sassanian army will not go south. Because according to time, our northern army should have entered the Sestan province where Persis is under Commander Zhou Yu. I believe that the Sassanian emperor will inevitably concentrate his troops to eat our northern army and then go south to attack and attack the Guadal Sassanian army in front and behind."

Wei Yan asked at this time: "But Your Majesty, how are you sure that Persis's Sassanian army will not divide the troops?"

Feng Yu laughed and said, "Because they had suffered consecutive defeats before, they had no confidence to defeat us if they divided their troops. Although they could not divide their troops, Guader City might be captured, but they believed that at least the North Road would win. If they divided their troops, they would worry that both sides would be defeated. Besides, Guader City is solid, with more than 30,000 defenders, and the emperor of Sassanida still had the luck to defend."

Feng Yu had a good guess. Two days later, a sailing and fast ship sailed into the inner port of Guader City. The clutch brought a reply to Nejarte. The reason for taking the sea route was very simple, and the land route to Guader City was cut off by Liang Jun.

Ahjarth opened the letter and found out what Ardashir meant. Persis could not send any reinforcements to Guader in a short time. Because the Liang army's northern route army had reached a distance of less than a hundred miles from Persis, Aldashir was personally commanding a battle to wipe out the Liang army in the north, and then he could go south to fight with Ahjar to annihilate the Liang army in the south.

Nejarth was shocked when he saw this. When the battle of Persis would end, if it was delayed for a few months, how could he resist the fierce attack of tens of thousands of Liang troops? When he finished reading all the letters, Fang felt a little relieved. Because Ardashir said again after the letter that he would instruct the navy of Shirov Port to go east to the Persian Gulf to reinforce Guader Port. At the same time, he would also send a small army of five or six thousand people to raid Pangbo City, in order to restrain the Liang army's forces and reduce Guader's pressure.

Nejalt muttered in his heart, thank God, the main naval force at the port of Shirov came to reinforce, as long as the sea control power is not lost, Guadal will be kept halfway.

Time passed quickly, and two more days passed in a blink of an eye. At dawn, the sky was just dawn, and Ahjalt, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by his personal soldiers. Ahjalt jumped up from the bed in shock and said while dressing, "Is it the Liang army that launched the siege?"

"Report to the Governor, a large number of ships were found on the sea outside the city, and it was confirmed that they were Liang's warships!"

Before even wearing armor, Nejarth rushed out of the mansion and ran to the city wall on the south wall. He looked into the distance from the sea to the southeast. Sure enough, on the sea in the distance, there were dense silhouettes of warship masts under the rising sun. Only from the silhouettes of those ships, it could be seen that they were Liang's warships.

Nejarth said anxiously: "No. The Liang army has not launched an attack on Guader for a long time. I guess it is just waiting for the fleet to come. Then the sea and land attack together. Guader is hard to protect!" He paced back and forth on the city wall in a hurry, muttering, "But why doesn't our fleet come to support yet!"

At this moment, he suddenly heard a scream, "Look, there are also a large number of fleets coming to the west!" Nejarth hurried to the wall again and looked southwest. Sure enough, a large number of black ships rushed towards Guader, with masts and sails standing in the sky. Nejarth repeatedly confirmed that these ships were indeed his own warships, and shouted excitedly: "Great, our fleet finally arrived in time."

At the same time, Lin Tao, who was in charge of the flagship, also discovered a large number of warships from the west, and soon confirmed that they were enemy ships from the Sassanian side. He immediately ordered all warships to enter the state of war. The sound of horns of the snails on the sea surface sounded one after another, and the flag bearers on the masts of each warship were struggling to sing flags. The combat ships in the Liang army reached the front and lined up toward the Sassanian fleet.

The nearly 1,000 Sassanian warships were also arranged in a short time. Then the sailors on their ship saw some small black dots appear in the air. These black dots were stone bombs shot from the crossbows on the Liang army's warships. They became larger and larger, and most of them fell into the sea water around the Sassanian warships, causing several feet of water splashes.

At this time, the nearest ships of the fleets of both sides were still more than 200 steps away. The Sassanian Navy did not have the habit of loading crossbows on warships. They still used the classical Mediterranean naval combat tactics - collision and hand-to-hand combat.

So at this distance, only Liang army can beat them, but they cannot fight back. However, Liang army's stone bullets are extremely difficult to hit the target, and the distance between the two fleets is getting closer and closer.
