Even if an enemy managed to sneak into the military camp and come around the king's tent, they would still be discovered.
Afterwards, the 40,000 Murmidon warriors will be able to rise up and fight, ensuring the king's safety 24 hours a day.
A few hours later.
Pompey personally led the team, commanding 10,000 Roman Republican Guards, and approached the Stoic coalition camp.
Just as expected.
After a great victory during the day, this group of rabble completely relaxed.
Except for the side manned by Stoby's own soldiers, the other three outposts were useless.

However, there is a temporary fence over there, and the guards have obviously been strengthened. Our brothers tried to sneak in several times, but were unable to avoid the guards' sight. Now, what should we do?" The Republican Guard general asked Pompey.
Calculating the distance from the royal tent and the number of surrounding military tents, Pompey judged that the army stationed in this clearing in the forest could not exceed 50,000.
He has 10,000 of the most powerful Republican Guards at his disposal.
It will be absolutely no problem to launch a surprise attack and wipe out these 50,000 people.

Then, taking advantage of the enemy's confusion, he broke into the king's tent and took King Stobi's head, which was easy as pie.
