The sky gradually brightened, the first rays of dawn spilled onto the earth, and the horn of the charge sounded in the sky.

The enemy sent reinforcements, and the battle came to an end. There are less than 3,000 remnants of the alien coalition on the battlefield, and it seems that with a little more strength, the enemy army can be completely annihilated.

"Huh......

Hudson, let you calculate everything, but you didn't expect to fall short in the end, right? ”

The laughter of silver bells reveals the joy in Delis's heart.

After a night of suffering, I finally waited for the moment of reversal, and this feeling is really beyond words.

"Miss Delis, don't be too happy, let's see how many moving elves there are on the battlefield.

Well, it's time for this battle to end, and we'll see you again. ”

After saying that, Hudson decisively ordered the withdrawal of troops.

At the beginning of the battle, the expeditionary force is also very tired, and if it continues, it may be able to completely annihilate the enemy army in front of it, but its own losses will also be very heavy.

Looking at Hudson's smug expression, the elven young woman's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

The whole army was almost wiped out, and only some of the remnants of the army were saved, which was not a victory at all.

In an instant, Delith's anger swelled to the limit, considering the difference in force between the two sides, he extinguished the idea of fighting Hudson, and his eyes were full of murderous aura in the direction of reinforcements.

Obviously, his own family came to help, but he became the main force on the battlefield, but it was the allies who watched the excitement on the side.

The companion troops sent by the Ancient Relic Alliance were almost dead in the battle, and the few survivors were scattered on the battlefield, and they couldn't be found without careful searching.

If you can't see it, you don't exist, and after ignoring these teammates, Delis directly labeled the Ancient Relic Alliance as unreliable.

A few thousand Terran cavalry can hold off an army of 200,000 for so long?

Once the seed of doubt is generated, it becomes a thorn buried deep in her heart, which can no longer be removed.

It's just that reason tells him that the Ancient Relic Alliance has no reason to pit teammates at such a time. Without the support of the elves, they would not have escaped the liquidation of the human race after the war.

Looking in the direction of Hudson's departure, Delis muttered to herself, "Is this part of your calculations?"

If the famous generals of the human race are so powerful, they will not let the essence be flexible! ”

……

Leaving the battlefield and looking down at the shrinking ranks below, Hudson sighed to himself.

"Stop and rest and count the casualties of the various units.

The priest did his best to heal the wounded, using magic potions, and trying not to use magic as much as possible. ”

Frankly, the current location is not safe, only thirty miles from the battlefield.

However, the expeditionary force was tired, and the enemy army was also tossed for a day and a night, and was in a state of exhaustion.

With another 20,000 cavalry, Hudson would never mind killing a rifle.

Forget it now, it's not cost-effective to take the elite of the kingdom and the alliance of the ancient relics to exchange it.

……

"Marshal, this time I was greedy for merit and failed to buy enough time for the army, please ......deal with it"

Before José could finish his plea, Hudson laughed.

"No, not only are you without fault, but you have merit!

missed the opportunity to completely annihilate the remnants of the enemy army, but in exchange for the opportunity to defeat the enemy's main force, no matter how you look at it, it is a big profit.

The battlefield is ever-changing, and there is a chance to burn down the enemy's camp, and I will abandon the interception plan. ”

Listening to Hudson's words, José was even more apprehensive.

Where did he want to break through the enemy's camp, he was completely following Hudson's orders, playing with the enemy to "encircle Wei and save Zhao".

After playing a few more times, the enemy figured out his strength and thought that it was impossible for him to break through the camp with such a small number of men.

The enemy refused to turn around and return to help, and the originally planned sheep attack turned into a strong attack.

"Marshal, after we broke through the enemy camp, we didn't find much food and grass.

Except for the 10,000 enemy troops who remained behind, the rest were wounded. For this reason, three hundred Warcraft cavalry were also lost, and the record was actually very average! ”

José hurriedly explained.

The quality of the record also depends on who you compare with.

Compared with the battle commanded by Hudson, sacrificing three hundred Demon Beast cavalry in exchange for such a result is really unsuccessful.

The 50,000 reinforcements that had previously attacked the enemy, the Warcraft Legion did not have such a big loss.

But the account can't be calculated like this, and the uncontrollable factor of pig teammates can't be expected to be encountered every time.

"General José, from a purely tactical point of view, the actual benefits of this battle are indeed not large.

Compared to our previous record, it is not worth mentioning. But war is not only military, but also political.

The reinforcements of the Ancient Relic Alliance have been slow to move, resulting in the elven legion being crippled by us, can the elves have no ideas?

Once a rift is created, it is not so simple to heal it. At the very least, it is impossible for the elves to send reinforcements to them in the short term.

Militarily, in addition to the more than 20,000 wounded who are not counted as war records, we can roughly calculate an account.

First of all, you annihilated 15,000 enemy troops transporting grain and grass, and then severely damaged more than 20,000 enemy reinforcements, and your side also contributed to the battle of destroying 10,000 enemies, and conservatively estimated that more than 45,000 enemy troops were annihilated.

If you take into account your half-way sneak attack and the enemy's non-combat attrition, the loss of the alien alliance is probably around 50,000.

No matter how much food and grass you burn down in the camp, the enemy army is now out of food, and the morale of the army will inevitably suffer a heavy blow.

Perhaps all the tribes have secretly hidden some dry food that they carry with them, but the amount is definitely not large. Maybe because of the problem of dry food, they will have a fight.

There were two paths in front of them, either to use the corpses of the battlefield as military rations, or to slaughter the mounts and livestock to fill the gap.

The soldiers of the Ancient Relic Alliance don't care, but the soldiers of the Elven Clan definitely can't accept the corpses of their companions as military food.

When races with different ideas collide together, there will inevitably be a conflict.

What's more, there are still us, the next two hundred miles, the enemy will not be easy! ”

The surprise came so suddenly that Hudson was a little confused.

If the enemy's battalion is still there, regardless of whether there is a shortage of food, it can be solved secretly.

Now all the soldiers know that the grain and grass have been destroyed, and the officers will take out the meat as military rations, and the origin will be revealed in an instant.

There are many races within the Ancient Relic Alliance, some of which are accustomed to eating the corpses of their companions, while many others are repulsive.

It has become inevitable that the already unstable alliance will once again be divided internally.

With so many unfavorable factors superimposed, Hudson did not believe that he could not find an opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the enemy army.

While rejoicing, Hudson was also a little worried. The number of troops that followed him out was getting smaller and smaller.

Of the 35,000 men who went out on the expedition, less than 30,000 remained, including 5,000 wounded.

If it weren't for the expeditionary force's victory all the way to cover up the impact of casualties, the morale of the army would have been affected long ago.

In any case, the army had to rest after this battle.

……

On the battlefield, the atmosphere of the converging alien coalition forces was particularly bleak.

Desperate to rush to reinforcements, I didn't expect to be lonely. Even knowing that the enemy's position was not far away, no one proposed to pursue it.

Everyone is a tired army, and if they insist on catching up and encountering the enemy after a few hours of rest, they are sending people to the head.

"What are you all eating, and why are you delaying your arrival until now?"

Delis asked murderously.

Came with a full army of elves, thinking that he would be able to shine and make a name for himself as an elven clan.

Unexpectedly, within a few days of arriving at the front line, the entire army was almost wiped out.

When this kind of thing happens, an explanation must be given to the clan. Otherwise, even if he is a strong person in the Holy Realm, he will be punished when he goes back.

It is impossible for the black pot Delis to carry it.

She was invited by the Ancient Relic Alliance to send troops, and in the end, because the reinforcements did not arrive on time, the army suffered heavy losses, and the responsibility was for the Ancient Relic Alliance.

As for what happened in between, it was the Ancient Relic Alliance's own business, and she just had to catch them for not fulfilling their agreement.

The follow-up effects, Delis doesn't care at all. The premise of friendship is reciprocity, and the performance of the Ancient Relic Alliance is really difficult to gain her respect.

It doesn't affect the overall situation, and from the moment the troops are sent to the war, the Ancient Relic Alliance has no way out.

The war has been fought so far, even if they are willing to defect, it is impossible for the Terrans to accept it.

Because of the invasion of the Ancient Relic Alliance, the dead Terrans have long been in the millions, and if you count indirect deaths, I am afraid that it will soon break 10 million.

With so many people dead, if there is no reaction, how can the human race be embarrassed to say that they are the overlord of the continent.

Including Hudson's political inducement, in fact, it is all a pie. If he really asked him to surrender the Alliance of Ancient Relic Clans and ensure that they would not be liquidated after the war, Hudson would not have the courage to do it.

From beginning to end, Hudson's slogan was simply "those who surrender do not kill".

Not killing does not mean not being held accountable.

A typical political slogan, the soldiers of the ancient relics who have little reading are no problem, and the politically skilled old nobles can see the problem at a glance.

It is true that the Alpha Kingdom can not hold them accountable, but no one knows whether the Principality of Moxi, the Eastern and Western Warhammer Kingdoms, and the countries of the Northern Continent will hold them accountable.

In the end, he was either reduced to a slave or taken out by the nobles to make a public trial to gain prestige.

Especially for the countries that will occupy the land of the Warhammer Kingdom in the future, it is even more important to show in this regard.

"Venerable, we were intercepted by enemy forces on our way, and we suffered heavy casualties to break through the blockade.

In order to reinforce the front line in time, we did not even take care of the rear battalion, resulting in the slaughter of more than 10,000 defenders and more than 20,000 wounded! ”

The Shadow King, who was pushed to the forefront, explained with a bitter face.

The boss is not good, he has not yet become the boss of the Ancient Relic Alliance, so he was pushed out to carry the thunder.

In case the hot-tempered Venerable in front of him was furious and slapped him to death directly, it would also be a vain death.

The Alliance of the Ancient Relic Clan has no ability to stand up for him, and the weak Shadow Clan does not dare to compare blindly.

"Allies", that is just the last fig leaf, with the continuous defeat on the battlefield, the voice of the Ancient Relic Alliance is also constantly weakened.

originally wanted to vent her anger, but suddenly thought of something, and Delis suddenly suppressed her anger, and pretended to be helpless and said:

"That's it, everything has happened, and it won't change anything at the moment, so let's think about the next battle!

You know how difficult Hudson is. Now that the coalition forces have suffered heavy losses and lost heavy baggage supplies, he cannot let go of this opportunity to fall into the ground.

Do you have a plan for dealing with it? ”

It seems that she is thinking about her allies everywhere, but in fact, in her heart, she doesn't take the Ancient Relic Alliance seriously at all.

】

can speak politely, that's because these guys still have the last use value.

It is unrealistic to expect them to destroy the expeditionary force, but it is also good news for the elves to be able to inflict some casualties on the other side.

If the Ancient Relic Alliance loses too quickly, the legion she has led will probably be completely lost.

In last night's battle, almost everyone in the elven army was wounded, and more than two-thirds were seriously wounded.

With the current state of the wounded, let the sacrifice perform divine magic, and at least half of it must be broken.

Death at the hands of the enemy makes Delis feel pain, and death at the hands of her own people is even worse.

It's not really hopeless, the magic kryptonite is too powerful, and there are magic potions to substitute.

Even if you want to be reborn with a broken limb or a short leg, you can wait for your body to recover, and there is no need to rush to death.

All the kings, you look at me, I look at you, and their faces are full of helplessness.

On a civilizational level, they are the big tribal chiefs. The vast majority of the races do not even have a written word, and their knowledge is transmitted by word of mouth.

"Your Holiness, I won't tell you. We are all rough people, using soldiers to fight all the previous experience, the current situation we have never encountered, I don't know how to learn from it?

Please show His Holiness a way to break the game! ”

The Shadow King said stiffly.

He knew very well that the offer would make many people in the league uncomfortable, but if he had a choice, he wouldn't do it.

There is no such thing as opposition.

Delis's murderous appearance just now frightened everyone. Who knows what will happen next if you anger this one.

"What is there to think about, hurry up and solve the logistics supply! Could it be that at this time, you should lead your team to pursue the enemy's cavalry? ”

Delis said angrily.

It's not a question of cowardice, it's mainly because the ancient relics are too poor to support cavalry, which has caused the current strategic passivity.

The general direction can be judged at a glance, but the specific implementation is a big problem. Let the rear send people to send supplies, that is, to contribute to the enemy's achievements.

It can be seen from the distance between the camps of the two sides that the expeditionary force is preparing to entangle them and does not want this army to leave.

Judging purely from the data on paper, the total strength of the alliance is still 180,000, which is six times that of the enemy, occupying an absolute advantage.

The reality is that there is no superiority in troops, but it cannot be brought into play. If you want to start a counterattack, you can't find a chance to make a shot.

After looking at each other, the expressions of the kings suddenly became solemn. There is a solution to the problem of grain and grass, but no one dares to propose it at such a time.
