Section 28 Morale

"Master, the explosion works well. The driver remembered his duty. "The assembled Greenskins were completely crushed. He was a little sorry. If a powerful charge can be organized at this time, it may be able to crush the entire Greenskin army in one fell swoop. Because the rest of the green skins were not injured, the lucky ones who were favored by Brother Engage had also become depressed at this time. They watched in disbelief at the splattered stumps and severed arms, letting the sand and flesh drip down their heads. No one remembers what they're going to do, they just stand there.

This was far beyond their imagination, and the terrifying explosion not only wiped out most of the Greenskins, but also directly destroyed the Greenskins' will to fight. At least the will to fight of this group of greenskins.

"Keep an eye on it. The Great Forge's voice was calm. Then, the driver noticed that the sound of the artillery had also subsided. The dwarven forces have begun to retreat. In this case, the retreat of the dwarven forces was safe, as it was impossible for the Greenskins to come out and pursue them.

......

It wasn't until around noon that the Ironhide Boss figured out his loss.

Last night, the Tin Boss's troops had been attacked (which he had expected for a long time), but not a full-scale attack, but a harassing fire from several cannons. The Ironhide did the best Greenskin could do: he released all of the Scroogs out of the way to deal with the dwarves. It's just that he underestimated the strength of this attack. Although the Dwarves have no more than six cannons, they have a strong convoy. None of the Scroogs who had been released were able to return.

The real trap came when the Ironhide Boss found out about this and planned to organize a powerful attack to destroy the dwarf cannons. A terrible explosion directly destroyed the entire assembled Greenskin troops. The greenskins couldn't figure out what was going on, but at least they understood that it was the dwarves.

The losses of the Greenskins were very heavy. The Tin Boss recounted the numbers and found that half of his proud army had been removed. Yesterday's day's anti-harassment campaign lost some of it, last night's explosion lost some of it, and some of the goblins who sneaked away when the situation was not good.

Fortunately, every green-skinned boss was killed all the way out of the sea of corpses and blood. Although such a heavy loss made the iron boss thunderous, it was not enough to make him scared and run away. Instead, the Ironhide Boss decided that if the dwarves had put so much effort into the wilderness, their castle must not be well defended. Besides, the Greenskins are now very close to the dwarven castle, and now turning around and retreating doesn't it mean giving up halfway, paying a heavy price and gaining nothing? If such a thing happens, how can the Ironhide Boss be a boss? How can he expect his subordinates to listen to him?

"Listen, you waste!" At the edge of the Greenskin camp, the Tin Boss gathered the big and small leaders who were still alive. "I'm going to take down the dwarf's castle today! Then we're going to dig up all the dwarves around here one by one!"

"Boss, I'm worried...... Their castle is not easy to deal with......" a small boss raised his doubts. This time, though, the Iron Boss was running out of patience. So he immediately used his machete to end this technical disagreement. After slaughtering this mouthy leader, the other leaders no longer have any opinions, and everything is up to the boss.

The helicopters circling in the sky immediately reported the situation here.

"Master, Greenskin is on the move again. Looks like their boss wasn't killed last night!"

Today's environment is a little bit better. The Greenskins continued along the broken path built by the Dwarves, and instead of a large number of Dwarven raiders, instead of bombs flying into the Greenskins.

The bomb came from a helicopter in the sky, at least as it seems. The greenskins have no choice but to flee and avoid the attack.

"Kouhu, how can there be so many bombs in these helicopters!" cursed the Ironclin Boss as he and his men dodged the bombs that flew in. The bombs exploded when they landed, powerful enough to send Greenskins flying into the air. Moreover, the fragments produced by the explosion have a lethality that no armor or shield can defend against. The greenskinned ranks were in disarray, and the frightened boars and infantry trampled on each other, causing many unnecessary casualties.

Out of sight of the greenskins, across a hillside, a group of dwarves were diligently manipulating catapults. These heavy weapons of war were originally intended for siege warfare, as they were so cumbersome that they were almost impossible to move once they were built. But this time, the great foundry invented a new way to use it.

"Brothers, hurry up and reload!" After another shot was fired, the dwarves immediately reset the catapult as fast as they could, and loaded a stack of bombs into it. These bombs were invented by a member of the Society of Engineers, who were once the most popular seeders in the Grand Foundry, but were eventually eliminated due to a lack of practical results. But after this war, perhaps this bomb expert will have the qualifications to win the next Grand Foundry selection.

......

"Master, the greenskins didn't realize that our dives were all fakes. ”

The voice of a helicopter pilot can be heard from the communication rune stone.

Eshuruphat sensed some kind of magic—a special communication spell similar to that used by the Great Grey Prophet. The magic of the Great Grey Prophet is used to communicate all thirteen Abyss Lords to hold remote meetings, while Carrie's magic communicates with all the communication rune stones and transmits her orders to the dwarves in the name of Eshurufat. And Ashrufat himself, in fact, has been watching from the sidelines. He could hear the reports from his men in the runestones, but he couldn't tell what kind of orders Carrie had given them.

However, even if he could only observe the reports of his subordinates, Ashrufat could roughly understand the development of the battle situation in the Dao Dao. It's all in Carrie's plan.

"The greenskins didn't notice that the bombs were mainly dropped from a hidden corner, and they thought they were all coming from helicopters. Carrie said with a little smug in her mind. "In this case, by the time they reach their destination, I am afraid that the strength and morale will collapse a lot. ”

The Greenskin Army is characterised by morale. Because of the warlike nature of the greenskins, their morale in battle is always very high. It is precisely because of this that the Greenskins largely offset the weakness of lack of discipline and make them dangerous enemies. However, if there is any means to demoralize the Greenskins, they will collapse at an unimaginable rate. This was seen by Ashrufat when he was still a green-skinned boss.

"The Ironhide Boss might find out......" Ashrufat said in his mind.

"Maybe he's a smart greenskin, but no matter how smart he is, he's a greenskin! When the battle was first put into action, Carrie was a little hesitant and hesitant, but now, she has completely lost that kind of performance. "Rest assured, master, we will be able to hit them hard. ”

In Ashrufat's view, Carrie's tactics were a bit like fishing – when the greenskins crossed the pass and instinctively made their way down the "dwarven road", they were almost doomed to tragedy. All the traps set by Carrie were designed along this path. As long as the greenskins continue along the road, they will definitely be beaten along the way.

It should be said that only the Greenskins will fall into this trap.

"Master, Greenskin still has morale. Carrie continued in her mind. "Because they still have hope of victory. They hope to be able to capture the enemy's castle...... However, as soon as this hope is dashed, then they will collapse immediately. ”

Ashrufat did not answer, but pondered. He was amazed by the ability Carrie showed this time - Carrie was able to command and command an army with ease and operate it with incredible efficiency. This allowed the Dwarves to eventually gallop across multiple battlefields with a small number of forces, gaining an overwhelming advantage in each of them.

"Master, why are we so relaxed this time?"

"For what?" replied Ashrufat subconsciously.

"Of course, it's because the preparation is different. Carrie said. "Speaking of which, every time we have participated in a war before, we have lacked such complete preparation this time. ”

She paused. "For example, our war as elven princes was completely unprepared to catch ducks on the shelves. That time, due to the lack of time to prepare, several battles were won very hard, and there were heavy casualties. Unlike this time, on the one hand, we have plenty of time to prepare all kinds of materials for the war, and on the other hand, it also gives me time to do a detailed and large-scale calculation of the various data of the war and get the results so far, isn't it?" Carrie's voice looked pleasant, "Especially in this situation. We stood in a distant and safe place, commanding the big sweet potatoes with our voices to deal with the brainless beasts. Isn't it nice to be on top of the game and play a game of chess?"

Eshurufat sensed that something was wrong with Carrie's words, but for a moment he couldn't say them.

"Well, for us, that's how war should be. Carrie continued. "We stand in a safe place and treat war as a game. In this way, war is interesting and pleasing to the eye. Isn't it?"

"Carrie, war is a terrible thing...... "Ashrufat remembered Carrie once making such remarks.

"For those who are specifically fighting, maybe yes. Carrie chuckled in her head. "But for us not to be specific exhibitors this time, are we? Master, look at these communication rune stones. ”

Ashrufat looked at the stones, each glowing with a faint magical glow under Carrie's control.

"With these things, we don't need to go to war at all. ”

"This time we were well prepared. Ashrufat admitted. You know, in the city of Karaz-Karak, he is not wholeheartedly a wine merchant. In fact, he and Carrie have been preparing for this war ever since he used those sinks to transform himself into a dwarf. Careful study was carried out on the overall operational plan, the topography of the peninsula area, and the plan for facing various unexpected situations.

But it must be said that when she was in Karaz-Karak, Carrie never mentioned that she was in command of the war. Even when talking about the possibility of "facing a war commander", Carrie simply says, "I'll leave this to me" or "We're not so unlucky." If it really happens, you can also retreat temporarily" to cope with the past.
