The cavalrymen left and slowly approached the three cities.
Several great commanders of the Hebrew army rode on their war horses, their eyes fixed on the three cities in the distance that had been built at an unknown time.
At this time, they began to realize that the three cities seemed to form a triangle, tightly surrounding the city of Heliopolis in the center.
Of course, they did not know that when those three cities were built, Heliopolis was still occupied by the Hebrews.
Therefore, they had no idea why the three cities were built in that way.
"When did you say these three cities were built?"
The young commander-in-chief looked into the distance and couldn't help but ask again.
The commander-in-chief with the severed finger slowly spoke: "In my opinion, there is only one possibility."
"That's what the Holy Pharaoh built day and night after he captured the city of Heliopolis, using the Egyptians as laborers and our captured soldiers to build it."
The young commander-in-chief nodded. He felt that this made sense.
The other burly commander spat fiercely and said angrily, "This devil!"
"He must have used some kind of witchcraft to force the Egyptians and our soldiers to serve him!"
Another commander gritted his teeth and took over the conversation: "That's right!"
"Saint Pharaoh is a madman who will do anything to achieve his goal!"
"How could someone who uses demonic power care about human life?"
However, the young commander-in-chief's voice sounded a little worried: "But those captured soldiers, are they still alive?"
The burly commander sneered, "Alive?"
"Do you think the Holy Pharaoh cares whether they live or die? He will only treat them as tools and throw them away after use!"
Another commander slammed his hand hard on the saddle, his voice filled with hatred: "This damn devil!"
"He doesn't deserve to be called the Holy Pharaoh. He is a complete devil!"
"How dare these low-class heretics treat Hebrew soldiers of excellent blood like this? It is not too much to hang them!"
The young commander-in-chief also said indignantly: "That's right!"
"This despicable and shameless behavior is simply outrageous!"
The commander-in-chief with the severed finger also spoke up: "I have already experienced the methods of the Saint Pharaoh."
"He will do anything to win."
"So, if we underestimate the enemy again, we may not even know how we were defeated."
After saying this, she looked at the burly commander who always challenged her.
The other party just snorted coldly and said nothing.
At this time, the cavalrymen who had set out had already moved away from the Hebrew army, and they were now approximately halfway between the army and the city.
At this moment, a strange scene happened.
"ah!"
There was a scream, and one of the cavalrymen suddenly fell off his horse.
And there was an arrow stuck in his chest.
Seeing this, the young commander exclaimed: "What's going on?!"
Immediately afterwards, the second and third arrows fell and hit their targets accurately.
The cavalrymen fell one after another, without even time to dodge.
In a moment, their bodies fell in the desert.
A team of elite cavalry was completely wiped out.
The burly commander-in-chief widened his eyes: "This! This is impossible!"
"Those cities are still so far away from us, how could the arrows possibly hit those cavalrymen?!"
"And it's so accurate?!"
Another commander frowned and slowly uttered a few words: "Could it be magic?"
The commander-in-chief with the broken finger shook her head. As the only person who had fought against the Holy Pharaoh, she said, "No, that's not magic."
"That's the 'Holy Egyptian Chariot' of the Holy Pharaoh."
The young commander frowned: "Holy Egyptian Chariot?"
"What is that?"
The commander-in-chief with the severed finger swallowed his saliva and said slowly: "That is the chariot endowed with divine power by the Holy Pharaoh."
"Their bows and arrows have an extremely long range and are extremely powerful."
“I didn’t expect them to be deployed in those cities.”
The burly commander murmured, "I've never seen anything like this..."
"But we clearly didn't see anything unusual, and we didn't see any chariots at all!"
"Don't those chariots need to aim at the city walls?"
The commander-in-chief with the severed finger told him coldly, "Maybe he had expected that we would send cavalry to investigate, so he set up an ambush in advance."
"I have already warned you. If it was our army charging just now, I am afraid we would have lost hundreds or even thousands of soldiers before we even approached the city."
At this time, the great commanders looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Many people saw such a scene for the first time.
The young commander-in-chief spoke first, breaking the silence: "Then, what should we do?"
The commander-in-chief with the severed finger thought for a moment and said slowly: "If we want to implement the siege plan, we must surround all four cities of Holy Egypt."
"But this will disperse our forces."
"But if the battle line is stretched too thin, it's easy to lose sight of one thing while focusing on another."
The burly commander frowned, looking somewhat dissatisfied: "So you mean that you want us to give up the siege?"
"It was you who proposed the siege, and it was you who proposed not to attack."
