Chapter 383: Slap in the face
In order to deal with Rocky's case, Goth took urgent action overnight.
First, expand the scope of the receiving troops, originally after the caravan entered the war zone, there would be troops to respond, but after the attack on the Kim Dae-bok caravan, the Goths decided to expand the range of the response to expand beyond the war zone, so as to ensure the safety of the caravan.
Second, urgently notify all escort fleets that are on duty and redouble their vigilance.
Thirdly, reconnaissance ships were sent to conduct a large-scale search near the Tulip theater of operations.
Overnight, Goth, the city lord of Tatsusu City, issued three orders in a row, pointing the finger at Rocky and others, and with his orders, the tension in the airspace where Tatsusu City was located also spontaneously arose.
It's just that although his three orders came out quickly, it seems that he has indeed raised a lot of vigilance, but the discerning person found that the Goth actually didn't make too many substantive movements.
And that's exactly where Gothic gets tough.
After serving as the fat difference of supply, although the Goths have not lost the oil and water they should have fished at all, they are really doing their best to supply supplies to the front line, such as the army in the city, more than half of the troops in Tatsusu City have been sent out to carry out escort missions, and the rest of the troops are responsible for receiving and patrolling.
That is to say, after the loss of Lapaton and more than 50 warships led by him, there are not many remaining troops in Tatsusu City, there are probably only more than 100 warships left, and the rest of the warships are performing escort missions outside, so that the Goths have become powerless.
Because until now, he still doesn't know the reality of Rocky, and everything can only be judged by experience.
Judging from Goth's experience, just by the fact that Laparton was completely destroyed, he can roughly guess the size of Rocky's troops, so if he wants to continue to send troops to encircle and suppress, he must send a fleet of 100 warships to have a certain victory, which is what makes Goth feel first-class, how can he have so many troops in his hands for deployment at will?
In this way, there are only those things he can do.
And the only thing that makes Goth more relieved is this overstretched situation, which is fortunately only temporary.
Although Tatsusu City is now very empty, and all the fleets have been sent out to carry out escort missions, as long as these escort fleets return to Sky City one after another, then even if only a few warships are drawn from each escort fleet, the Goths can form a huge fleet of more than 100 numbers, and no matter who the enemy is, he will have the strength to fight.
Therefore, as long as these few days have passed, when he redeploys the troops, the matter will naturally be resolved.
It's just that he didn't know that what Rocky and they fought for was these few days!
On June 1, 118 A.D., the caravan of Jin Daefu was attacked, more than 20 cargo ships and more than 30 escort fleets were completely destroyed, and the increased troops led by Laparton rushed to the battlefield that night, and were ambushed by Rocky and others, and Lapadon was killed with the fleet, and the fleet was completely destroyed.
On June 2, 118 A.D., the Goths issued three orders in succession, informing the escort fleet of the news that the Kimda-Fook caravan had been attacked and the Lapaton fleet had been completely wiped out, and ordered all the escort fleets to be more careful, but on the same day, another caravan was attacked!
When Goth learned the news, it was in the afternoon, and he had just given a series of orders in the morning, but he didn't expect that only half a day later, another caravan was attacked.
"Which caravan was attacked?"
Looking at the officials who had come to inform him, Goth asked with a sinking face.
"My lord, it's a cargo ship of the Azure Chamber of Commerce. ”
"What's on board?"
Hearing the words of the Azure Chamber of Commerce, Goth's already tightly knit brows couldn't help but become tighter, and they were completely twisted into a pimple, because he remembered clearly that the Azure Chamber of Commerce was specially providing them with medicines!
Sure enough, after that, the official said: "It's thirty boats of medicine......"
"What!"
Hearing this, Goth burst out of his seat, and his eyes widened!
Thirty ships of medicine......
Such a heavy loss made Goth a little uneasy.
The Jin Da Fook caravan that was attacked before, although it also lost more than 30 ships of goods, but the Jin Da Fook Chamber of Commerce is mainly responsible for providing magic stones to Chensu City, and although the magic stone is a strategic material, it is very important, but there is a surplus in both Chensu City and the front line, so the loss of 30 ships of magic stones may not be small, but the impact on the entire war zone is not large.
But this time the lost medicine was different.
In a war of this level and scale in front of us, the total number of warships dispatched by the two sides in a battle may be close to more than a thousand, and it may even exceed a thousand, and the air demon warriors dispatched by both sides are even hundreds, so each battle will be accompanied by a large number of wounded, so in this kind of fierce battle, medicine is never enough, so thirty ships of medicine were robbed at once, and this loss is so huge that even the Goths can hardly bear it!
"Bastard!"
Glaring at the official in front of him, Goth roared a moment later, and at the same time threw the vase on the desk and slammed it against the wall with a thud.
After that, he began to pace back and forth in the study in a rage, apparently thinking of a countermeasure.
Based on Goth's experience, it is not difficult to see that the enemy's intention is obviously to take advantage of the poor turnover of the troops in Chensu City to destroy as much as possible, but the enemy has mastered this opportunity too well, so that even if Goth knows the enemy's intentions, he can't fight back, because he really doesn't have any extra troops in his hands now.
This incident also made Goth faintly feel bad.
First of all, it can be judged from the enemy's actions in the past two days that this series of attacks was obviously carefully planned and fully prepared, which means that the enemy has not only planned for a long time, but also must have a follow-up.
Secondly, the enemy by no means intends to leave with a single vote, and is likely to intend to conduct guerrilla attacks in the theater of operations for a long time and attack the supply lines of the theater for a long time.
Realizing these two points, Goth's heart sank, because if this is the case, the pressure on Tatsusu City will be great, unless he can completely wipe out the enemy, otherwise as long as he can't catch the enemy, all the supply lines will become grassy and wooded, because no one knows whether they will be attacked or not, and every caravan will become panicked.
What will happen to Tatsujuku City then?
It would definitely not work to go on like this, so Goth immediately made a decision, and after calming down his anger, he immediately said to the previous official: "Contact the alliance leader immediately and ask him to send two Sky Cities over immediately, preferably medium-sized Sky Cities." ”
"Yes!"
With a reply, the official hurried down, while Goth sat back in his seat, but his brow still did not stretch......
