What was Xenon's primary strategy against Molon?

  • Direct confrontation

  • Guerrilla Warfare

  • Retreat and regroup

  • Siege

Answer

Xenon's primary strategy against Molon was to retreat and regroup. He realized that his army was outnumbered and outgunned, so he decided to use guerrilla warfare tactics to wear down the enemy. He would launch hit-and-run attacks, then retreat to a safe location before the enemy could counterattack. This strategy worked well, and eventually Molon's army was forced to retreat.
