Seeing so many people coming, Methonian's envoy was overjoyed!
Regardless of his old age and frailty, he ran to Xia Zhe's bedroom, knelt down and kissed Xia Zhe's feet, which made Xia Zhe feel quite disgusted.
If Xia Zhe hadn't known that he was old and ugly, everyone would have thought he had that kind of idea!
In fact, Xia Zhe himself was quite surprised that he had such a strong appeal.
Little Stoby simply can't afford to support such a large army!
Not daring to delay, Xia Zhe immediately convened a meeting of the heads of the legions of various countries and decided to send troops immediately to carry out the established plan to attack the city of Thessaloniki.
In order to unify the command, the attacking force was divided into two groups.
Achilles, who had recently gained great fame, led an elite force of 200,000 men. He quietly sailed down the river and attacked the city of Edomane!
Odysseus, who had friendly relations with all parties, led a large army of over 600,000 men, crossed the mountains by land, and marched south to attack Macedonia with great fanfare!
To be on the safe side, Xia Zhe also instructed that nearly 100,000 people be left behind.
In name, the purpose was to create the illusion of an attack on Stupala and confuse the Macedonians.
In fact, it’s just about protecting your own nest!
After all, the supplies in Stobi City are limited!
A hundred thousand troops are stationed permanently, no more is possible!
As for whether the more than 800,000 attacking troops can achieve the expected results, Xia Zhe is not so concerned.
Anyway, I’m not the one leading the team!
It doesn’t matter if there are heavy losses!
As long as my Stoby can't break it!
Seeing the army setting off, the Metonian envoy finally burst into tears of gratitude and explained the situation of the other kings' hearts.
According to the messenger.
The Heart of the King was left behind by the gods when they created the world tens of thousands of years ago.
There were nine in total, which were distributed to the kings of the nine major countries at that time for safekeeping.
The kings of the nine countries all built solemn temples to enshrine the King's Heart in their hands.
However, with the passage of time, only five of the original nine great countries are still alive.
In these five countries, except Macedonia, the King's Heart should still be in the capital temple! Heavily guarded!
"Oh my god! You don't want me to attack Sparta! Attack Athens! Attack Crete! And attack Troy! And then take away their King's Heart?"
Hearing this, Xia Zhe almost cursed.
These major countries are all superpowers whose strength is far greater than Macedonia!
It is more difficult to snatch the king's heart from them than to deal with Alexander!
This is simply an impossible task!
If the army had not already set out and should not be recalled, Xia Zhe would have been so angry that he wanted to disband the team and let Methionion fend for itself!
"Your Majesty, please calm down! Your Majesty, please calm down! Although it is difficult to obtain those four, we can take it step by step. It does not necessarily require war! We can first find the other King's Hearts scattered among the people. I heard that someone once saw an orange King's Heart in Seranda in the west. Your Majesty can send someone to investigate!" The messenger spoke at the right time.
Seranda!
Isn’t that a mysterious country thousands of kilometers to the west, deep in the mountains?
I heard that it's close to the Apennines and the customs there are different from here. But so far, there hasn't been a truly powerful country!
You should always eat one bite at a time.
Okay, after this battle is over, I will send troops to rob it!
Xia Zhe thought secretly.
In the Holy Palace of Pella, the capital of Macedonia.
Alexander, Aristotle, and the Sirens, before a map of the Great Northern Territory.
"I always thought that Stobi and Methionian were at odds with each other! Unexpectedly, this time, Stobi actually assembled a large army to respond!" Alexander said with some sadness.
He had received intelligence from the spies.
King Stobi issued a call to action, and more than 80% of the city-states in the Great Northern Alliance responded positively!
Currently, there are at least 700,000 troops gathered in the city of Stobi.
They will attack southward soon.
At the same time, the six small city-states in the east also broke with their usual behavior. They sent out their main legions and used various means to support the besieged Metonian City.
It caused considerable trouble to Macedonia and the Southern Allied Forces!
Fortunately, the strength of these city-states is limited, with a total military strength of less than 100,000.
Although annoying, it did not change the situation of the siege.
Given three more months, the Macedonian army could still capture Methonian City and eliminate the second-largest force in the North!
This will be a great feat that even Philip has never achieved!
"They will definitely attack Stupra! That despicable King Stupra has a deep hatred for Stupra! Please, my king, send troops immediately and rescue us with all your strength!"
Siren on the side spoke first and held Alexander's hand tightly.
Now Siren was the only choice for queen, and her origins had already been made known to Alexander.
When Stubby gathered a large army, the first person Siren thought of was her own Stubla!
Thanks to the Sirens, King Stupala successfully changed sides and is now a close ally of Macedonia again!
However, that place is not Macedonia's inherent territory and its defense capabilities are poor!
With his troops stretched to the limit, Alexander was quite worried about whether sending troops to rescue would be effective.
"Siren, you don't understand military affairs! Stupala is too close to the city of Stuby! It is impossible to hold it under the attack of 700,000 troops! Using Macedonia's existing defense force to rescue it will only result in losses in vain! I think it would be better to let King Stupala abandon the city and retreat the entire army into Macedonia!" Aristotle pondered.
"Saint Master, this is absolutely true. I second your proposal!"
