"What?!!! You actually want us to retreat!!! This is absolutely impossible! I would rather die here than be a running coward!" Alhan's roar almost overturned the tent. ^_^ Look·Book·First·Post·Please·Go·^_^

The facts were exactly the same as Henry's worries. Just after listening to the entire plan, the general broke out immediately.

As we all know, the elves are a very proud race, and perhaps only the dragons in the entire Faerun continent can match it. Thick history, brilliant civilization, beautiful art, and elegant temperament all give them an unparalleled sense of superiority. Therefore, some elves are simply more stubborn than dwarves when it comes to honor. The general in front of them is The most obvious example.

Henry had not dared to say that this army would pretend to be defeated, and only mentioned that it would retreat about ten kilometers and immediately caused Elhan's backlash. Perhaps in his opinion, this is totally a kind of humiliation. You must know that there is no precedent in history for the elven army to flee without a fight, even if the enemy is strong, it will have to fight a battle.

Generally speaking, there are only two forms of warfare on the mainland of Faerun: one is a field battle, where the two sides agree on the time and battlefield, and then set up their positions to fight each other until one is defeated and defeated. When the strength of the two parties involved in the battle was not much different, most of them used this method, even monsters such as orcs, goblins, ogres, and jackals understood this rule.

The other is offensive and defensive warfare. The weaker side relies on defensive fortifications, such as castles, city walls, arrow towers, etc., while the stronger side launches a fierce attack until the defending side is annihilated or the attacking side is unable to succeed. This kind of war is usually exceptionally cruel, and the proportion of deaths is particularly high.

As for the so-called tactics seldom appear on the battlefield, because they are useless at all. This is a world with magic and magic, especially in the process of marching and fighting, the casters will monitor everyone who comes to report to the commander, as long as they dare to tell a lie. It will be dismantled in an instant.

The only tactic that is often used is night attack, but this can only be used to deal with races without night vision capabilities, if you encounter elves and dwarves. Then their sentry will not hesitate to invite you to eat crossbow arrows.

Most importantly, except for those monsters with low IQs. Many regular troops will use prophetic magic for divination before the war begins, and any ambush will also be exposed. At that time, it will be too late to cry. Stealing chickens and failing to eclipse refers to this situation.

It is precisely because of the above reasons that the main plane army is becoming more and more formed, and the combat method is basically fixed, like the steppe cavalry and the movement warfare ideology that run across the Eurasian continent on the earth. And most of the horses are just means of transportation. It is better to hire a few wizards with golems to expect them to charge.

Henry once saw a cavalry charge towards an ogre, and he was overturned by a huge mallet with a horse and a man in the air. When he fell down, his bones were broken, and the horse broke his neck on the spot. die.

In the eyes of these aborigines, fighting is almost a head-to-head contest. Which side retreats first means that which side loses. They simply can't understand what a strategic retreat is, and they don't understand that sometimes as long as they give up a certain distance, they can cause endless troubles to the enemy.

Of course, adventurers are not in this list. They can do almost anything to survive, dig traps, escape, lure, and climb trees. In short, as long as they can complete the task and survive, these guys will do everything.

"Old friend, calm down. This is just a suggestion, a strategy, you don't need to be so excited." The Chief Mage smiled and shook his head in comfort. As a scholar-type mage, he didn't realize the use of wisdom to achieve victory is not good, anyway, as long as more elven soldiers survive, a little trick is nothing at all.

But Alhan obviously didn’t think so. He waved his hands excitedly and shouted, “No! I would rather die immediately than be subjected to such humiliation. For more than ten thousand years, for more than ten thousand years, we elves have never There has never been an army that flees without a fight. Just imagine. If we did this today, those historians would definitely put it on record. Then everyone would wait to be laughed at by the world. General, I will never allow this to happen."

"General. I agree with you. As an elven ranger, I am willing to fight to the death with my compatriots. In any case, we can't be cowards, so even if we survive, we will never look up." The ranger commanded aside. The official said that his face flushed, obviously he was also a proud guy in his heart.

Seeing this situation, Henry seemed to understand something. In fact, there is not much difference between the elven society and human beings. The same knowledgeable wizards are more receptive to new things, while the warriors are relatively stubborn, clinging to the so-called glory and not willing to let go.

But it doesn't matter, it's not his own men who will die anyway. Thinking of this, he shook his head regretfully: "Well, since you are not far from the retreat, then we will change the way. First of all, remove the patrols near the ruins of the temple, and let the dark elves leave the ground as much as possible, so that I In order to minimize their number."

"No! This is too dangerous. Once the ruins of the temple are occupied, it means that the enemy has a base that can be attacked, retreated, and defended. As long as they are willing to attack the camp at any time, we will be completely passive." Ai Erhan rejected the proposal without even thinking about it.

His tactical literacy is not bad, he can see the strategic value of the ruins at a glance, so he does not hesitate to spend a lot of troops to fight against the dark elves repeatedly, even if there are more deaths and injuries, they can't give up.

Henry smiled lightly and explained: "Your Excellency, I just want to release as many of these guys as possible, otherwise the soldiers under you will be exhausted sooner or later. Maybe the dark elf's plan is like this. , Relying on quantitative advantages to engage in small-scale battles in areas with complex terrain and continue to consume your troops. Otherwise, I cannot think of why they have such a huge advantage, but so far they have not launched a full-scale offensive."

This sentence surprised everyone in the tent. After carefully reviewing the situation of the two days of fighting, they suddenly realized that it seemed to be like this.

"Damn! I was actually fooled. This scam **** is actually playing tricks on me!" As he said, Elhan slammed his fist on the table. Although he was a bit stubborn, he was not stupid at all, and instantly understood that the current situation was a conspiracy planned by the enemy.

"Yes. I think those dark elves must have launched a tentative attack, and then they have maintained this tepid state of engagement, constantly sneaking and harassing. It is neither excessively exciting nor relaxes the intensity of the attack. If you look at the deaths and injuries in the last two days now, you can definitely get a very similar number."

Speaking of which. Henry paused deliberately, looked at the pained expressions of the elves, and then continued: "They feel that launching a large-scale attack will definitely lose a lot, so they decide to hang a noose around your neck until the number of soldiers in the barracks is reduced to a certain extent. , These guys will immediately tighten the noose and launch the deadliest blow. At that time, it will be too late to retreat."

no doubt. His remarks are absolutely alarmist, deliberately saying the worst situation to scare people. Because the situation on the dark elf's side should be brewing infighting.

Istar, the eldest son of the Geralt family, must try to get rid of the immediate relatives of the first and second families. The chief mage Sidrex was also involved, and several high-ranking priests of the Spider Church were also very involved. It is possible to participate in it, and there is no time to deal with these wood elves. In their eyes, no matter who is the victor in the end, they can lead an army to easily kill all the enemies.

It has to be said that the first mother of the first family, Adu (Lace), did not choose to go out in person. It was a huge mistake and wasted such an excellent opportunity. As long as she completely defeats these surface elves, there will be no obstacles in the entire Wildas Forest. At that time, together with the monster army of Joan Irenicus, the city of Sodennisla had no chance to resist.

If the plot develops like this, neither Henry nor Aberdare can only stare. There is no way. But it is a pity that there is no if in this world, and there is no regret medicine either.

Joan Erinikas chooses an unreliable ally, so he must take the risks that come with it. The monster army alone certainly cannot quickly capture an elven city protected by a magic mystery lock. Even if it is cracked, the mystery lock is a mystery lock. As long as it is not completely destroyed, it will definitely be able to play some role.

In the game, those elves fighting hard to buy a lot of time for the Son of Baal, resulting in Joan Erenikas did not complete the extraction of the tree of life. In the end it fell short. It can be said that his plan is perfect, only a tiny bit away from victory. Whenever an ally gives a little bit of strength, the result will be completely different.

For such a legendary mage with powerful spellcasting ability, extraordinary intelligence, a trace of calm in madness, and a sense of reason in hatred. Even as an enemy, Henry had to applaud him. It can be said that he has achieved the ultimate of a mortal, and in the end it was not lost to anyone~www.ltnovel.com~ but the illusory, but real destiny.

The big tent fell into silence again, and Alhan's face was full of contradictions, distortions and struggles. It can be seen that the general’s current mood is very tangled and complicated. On the one hand, the elves have maintained their glory for more than 10,000 years, and on the other hand are the lives of more than 2,000 compatriots. At this moment, the right to choose is in his hands. The burden of pain made him breathless.

The chief mage also frowned, glanced at his old friend from time to time, and finally let out a silent sigh, closed his eyes and waited quietly for the answer. He knew it was not easy, especially for an elf who was full of pride.

Henry also did not urge, but closed his eyes and considered the next plan. No matter what, the dark elves will have a fiasco here. When the news goes back to Uster Nazareth, it will definitely cause a shock. The mistress of the first family will undoubtedly be desperate, just want to do it in the game. In that way, summon the lesser demon lord.

Of course, this is not a simple process. It can be seen from the scary materials alone that the blood of the mind-seating demon’s brain, the eye of the elder beholder, and the blood of the murloc prince Kou Tao, no matter what the three. It's hard to get any of them. Maybe it's time for Kangus to act. His time is running out. Once Allen is rescued, it means that destruction has entered the final countdown. To be continued
