Advance - (part 3) - Pincer attack
22nd-23rd September 1574
The sound of the constant artillery exchange between the two sides was the only thing that accompanied my troops when the sun started to set.
At first, it was hard to say which side had the advantage. Due to their elevated positions, Ostros cannons managed to overcome the qualitative difference between themselves and my own big guns, forcing me to go with the mortar tactic. And that meant, that for the most of the time before all the preparations would be done, my tanks only pretended to aim at the enemy, adhering to the old military rule.
The man shoots, but it's the God who carries the bullets.
