Chapter 460: Adjutant on the Move?
"Sir, are you sure we're going after the dark elves, not the army of minotaurs or goblins withdrawing?" Faced with Liu Kai's choice, the officers under Liu Kai were a little hesitant.
After all, in their opinion, although compared to the number of troops evacuated by the minotaurs and goblins, the dark elves were much smaller.
Compared to these scouts, who are not very good at detecting and counter-detecting races like the Minotaurs and Goblins, the Dark Elves are undoubtedly much more difficult to deal with.
Therefore, thinking of the possible loss of numbers from pursuing the Dark Elves to evacuate the troops, several officers actually wanted to follow behind the Minotaur or Goblin Evacuation Troops.
But after Liu Kai's order was issued, although they had the right to suggest, they still needed to obey Liu Kai's order in the end.
Secondly, Liu Kai said, "Compared to fighting against the Minotaur and Goblins in the future, an innate scout like the Dark Elves will undoubtedly bring us more losses.
So if we don't take advantage of the fact that they are evacuating at this time, and the situation of our pursuit causes them some losses, it will be a waste of this opportunity to beat the water dogs.
In addition, compared to the Minotaur and Goblins, two dark race gatherings, which were attacked by us, caused a certain amount of damage, the Dark Elves did not suffer much.
After that, our Second Reconnaissance Force will need to re-establish itself in this area, and if we don't let the Dark Elves taste some losses, then they will be unscrupulous against us in the future.
It wouldn't even be surprising to unite the other two dark races again to create a united army. So which side do you think we should pursue?"
After thinking about it, the officers under his command seemed to have some truth in what Liu Kai said.
But the power of the dark elves and the abilities their racial gifts gave them were so difficult to deal with.
A few officers still said, "Sir, will this be too much of a loss? After all, the dark elves are really tough to deal with."
In the face of several people's concerns, Liu Kai also understood.
Therefore, Liu Kai comforted them and said, "I know, so we don't choose to really collide with them head-on, but just keep following them to see if we can pick up some bargains.
Even if they choose to bring people back and fight with us, then we can just leave."
Hearing Liu Kai say this, of course several officers would no longer have any objections, so they were pursued after such a decision.
Although the losses of the dark elves were not very large, they did die a lot under the pursuit of Liu Kai and others.
Therefore, after Liu Kai and his soldiers gave up the pursuit, dozens of processed dark elf ears representing military merits fell on the bodies of everyone under Liu Kai's command.
"Not to mention, it's the first time that the battle with the dark elves has been so easy. You know, in the past, when we fought them, we could have been killed if we didn't pay attention.
This time, with so many casualties, it was easy to feel as if the dark elves weren't so difficult to deal with."
An officer said so, but after finishing speaking, the other party also hurriedly cleaned up his absolutely abnormal feeling towards the enemy.
After all, the scout battle in which the human side loses more than the dark elves win has long shown how difficult the dark elves are, so this officer doesn't want to have an accident in the future because of the ease of this time, resulting in accidents due to carelessness in the battle.
So in this atmosphere, although I know that the future battle will definitely not be as simple as it is now, I am still full of harvest and relaxed.
Liu Kai led them back to the area close to the human side within the jurisdiction, and after letting the three officers form three reconnaissance camps, Liu Kai finally began to re-establish the hidden camp belonging to the second reconnaissance force.
In the headquarters of the First Frontline Combat Corps, Commander Raymond looked at the battle report that came up after the battle between Liu Kai and the three dark races in the jurisdiction came to an end.
With a blank face, he handed it to his lieutenant,
And then said: "Originally, I thought that I could get an appointment from the military department and get help from my old acquaintance, because this kid has a bit of a background, so he plans to come to gild.
But I never thought that the other party was really good, and he relied on those more than 500 people to relieve the crisis in his own jurisdiction and successfully revitalize it.
In that case, how do you think we should reward our new commander of the Second Reconnaissance Force?"
In the face of Captain Raymond's words, the adjutant did not have the slightest expression on his face as if he were the other party, and did not give the other party any response.
Because the adjutant knew that Captain Raymond did not choose to reward Liu Kai neatly, that was because he was still a little dissatisfied with Liu Kai.
As for why there is dissatisfaction?
It's not because Liu Kai came up and killed the people he assigned.
So at this time, if he said that the reward for Liu Kai was too high, it would inevitably make Raymond unhappy.
But if the reward for Liu Kai is low and is known to outsiders, Raymond will think that his reputation will be affected because of his advice.
At this moment, the adjutant chose to respond as he had in most cases, and did not give any response unless Raymond asked him repeatedly.
Therefore, under the adjutant's witty choice, it didn't take long for Raymond to make a decision.
Liu Kai looked at the number of soldiers who had been replenished after the camp of the Second Reconnaissance Force was officially established, and he took the letter of appointment from Raymond to find the second-order peak person in front of him who had faint signs of a breakthrough.
"It seems that for the reconnaissance troops under his command, the other party still wants to control them in their own hands as much as possible."
Yes, it's as if Liu Kai was once a centurion but didn't have any connection with his immediate boss, but set up a small hill by himself.
The commanders under the command of each captain are not necessarily of the same mind as each other.
After all, compared to the interests that need to be given up after having the same heart with the other party, many commanders have their own strength behind them.
Therefore, the higher up the army, the more mountains there are.
So looking at the adjutant in front of him who seemed to be very obedient to him, Liu Kai shook his head in his heart:
"Do you think you'll take control away from me? Isn't that underestimating me?"
Therefore, if there is no accident, he should be able to advance to the third order in less than three months.
Liu Kai said, "Since it is the appointment of the captain, of course I will not disagree."
