Sorry - I wasn't being very clear.....
One (and only one) of my objections (apart from the location) to the suitability of these sites was that the topography allowed lots of people to escape. If 150,000 escaped this does not matter. I still believe that the site was in the West (at Cunetio).
I am still of the opinion that refugees would not march into a hostile area and therefore on this alone (apart from a number of other reasons much of which you have stated) leads me to believe that they would have gone away from the East of the Country....
