Alexander's Main Camp

As Alexander revealed his plan, there was of course no objection to it.

On the contrary, all the military leaders cheered at the approach.

It was not in any way subtle, but given their superiority in firepower, it certainly had a large chance of success. 

One noble even added that this was a very good idea because even if they failed, the casualties would be relatively low.

After all, it would be those camp followers doing all the dangerous work, while the soldiers would have the relatively safe job of shooting arrows.

Something that gained much approval from the other nobles as even Jamider (Earl) TIkba seemed to have shed his pessimistic outlook to put on a happy, expectant face.

Although he still did not believe they could take the city, at least the losses they were likely to suffer would be far less than he had anticipated.
