Eighty-one, the defeat of the mountain (II)

Although the Tri-Clan Alliance lost all its regular troops, the loss of strength was not as great as expected. In all fairness, for a powerful race like the Yan and Huang tribes, there are only two definitions of conventional troops, one is to go to the battlefield as cannon fodder, and the other is to act as a security force in the occupied territory, as for expecting them to decide the real outcome of a war, it is a joke.

If a Holy Land Legion is stumbling with a regular army and cannot escape, then a Holy Land Legion will at most be equivalent to the combat effectiveness of 100,000 group army groups, but if the size of the battlefield is not limited and the Holy Land Legion is allowed to play freely, no matter how many regular troops there are, it is just a dish of the Holy Land Legion, and you can eat it as you want. Therefore, even if all the regular troops were lost, for the three-clan coalition army, there was no injury to the bones, at most, a large amount of equipment was lost, and that's it.

It's just that after losing all the regular troops, after facing the clone fleet of the Yanhuang clan again, you have to rely on your own elite troops and Holy Land Legion troops to fight hard, using your own elites to fight the enemy's cannon fodder, even if the loss ratio is 1 to 10,000, it will be a big loss, as long as the head of the three clans alliance is not kicked stupidly by a donkey, they will not do such a stupid thing. Therefore, retreat is their best option. To deal with cannon fodder, the best is still cannon fodder, and if you use the elite to fight the cannon fodder, you will suffer how you fight. Unless it's forced to do nothing.

It is not of much strategic significance to retreat to the second line of river systems, and then divide the troops to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Xuanwu Legion distributed in more than 200 river systems. It didn't take long to wipe out all the remnants of the Xuanwu Legion. In addition to the direct subordinate department of Han Tiefang. But. This can only create a little loss for the Yanhuang clan, but it has no strategic significance. On the contrary, if they stay here too long, let the Yanhuang clan seize the opportunity to make a big detour and go around their rear to cut off the retreat, and then the losses will be lost.

Therefore, the top brass of the Three Clans Alliance did not do such a stupid thing. Instead, he ordered all the elite troops to retreat, all the way back until they joined up with their own logistical transport forces. As for whether to withdraw again after the convergence, it depends on the situation.

Han Tiefang's department finally joined up with the Blue Dragon Legion that came up, Han Tiefang breathed a sigh of relief, and after handing over the command, he fell on the bed and slept beautifully. The same is true of other high-level executives, for some time. They are not doing well, and they are always worried that the enemy will chase them. Now, at last, it's a sigh of relief.

By January of the sixth year of the war, the enemy on the second line of the river system had been cleared except for retreat. The detachments that had been dispatched to destroy the teleportation arrays of the various river systems also converged. The result was a miserable one. A total of 67.2 billion soldiers were dispatched, but only 7.9 billion people were able to leave the battlefield alive, and all but more than 5 billion soldiers were taken prisoner.

It can be said that in this battle, Han Tiefang's Xuanwu Legion was completely disabled, the whole army of 300 billion soldiers, in the final calculation, only less than 40 billion remained, and the loss was as high as more than eighty percent, such a high battle loss, let Han Tiefang confine himself in his room for three days, he felt that he had no shame to face his brothers, and the death was close to ninety, what a terrible number.

However, what should be faced still has to be faced, after pacifying his subordinates, after Sun Tiejian arrived at the Giant Eagle Star, Han Tiefang and other high-level officials went to visit, Sun Tiejian saw Han Tiefang, smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Han Tiefang's shoulder and said, "Little brother, hard work." Han Tiefang sighed and said, "Third brother, I want soldiers." ”

Zhou Tiehu smiled: "No problem, how much you have lost, how much I will supplement for you, I will have to work hard for you in the future, now is a good time to pursue, we must chase the enemy until we even lose our pants." "Fifth brother, how far do you think the enemy will retreat?"

Zhou Tiehu touched his chin and asked with a smile: "Hongyuan boy, tell me what you think, where do you think the enemy will retreat?" Zhou Hongyuan glanced at Han Tiefang and complained: "Boss Tiefang, can you not ask these questions, as soon as you ask, we people will suffer, our ancestors like to test people the most." ”

Everyone laughed, and Zhou Tiehu smiled and said: "Hongyuan, it seems that you are very dissatisfied with me, the old ancestor, don't you want me to test you?" "Don't, old ancestor, I'm very happy that you test me." No, didn't I find it myself?" Zhou Hongyuan realized that it was wrong as soon as he spoke, Zhou Tiehu's words, he couldn't think about it, and he couldn't say that he didn't want to, what a dilemma.

Zhou Tiehu patted Zhou Hongyuan's shoulder and said with a smile: "Boy, learn a little." "Yes, Ancestor. "Where do you think they will retreat?" "At present, our army is in full swing and is flying with vigor, and it can be said that it is like a broken bamboo, and it is unstoppable. On the contrary, in a big defeat, the morale of the enemy army was not so easy to recover, coupled with the lack of logistical supplies, it was impossible to restore sufficient supplies in a short time. Their regular forces have already surrendered, and they won't be able to mobilize enough cannon fodder troops to fight us in a short period of time, so I guess they'll keep retreating, at least a hundred million light-years away, and that's at least a hundred years from now. ”

Sun Tiejian asked: "Tie Fang, what do you think?" "I don't see it, if it were me, I would have retreated until I was close to the edge of the galaxy, and then I would have a duel with the enemy." "Oh, what is your basis?" "First of all, the enemy's forces are insufficient, and even if they mobilize all their own forces, they will not be able to raise a large force to contend with us in a short period of a hundred years. ”

"Secondly, the supply line, one of the reasons why they will lose this time is that the supply line is too long, and our supply line is not long, which is convenient for supply, therefore, their logistics let us destroy, and the consequence is that it is now, they have suffered a big loss, and they will definitely not suffer such a big loss again, the shorter the supply line, the more beneficial it is for them, on the contrary, the more unfavorable it is for us. ”

Everyone nodded secretly. "Third, they need more time to produce more equipment and arm more troops to fight us, which is definitely not something that can be done in a short period of time. The reality of our strength has been exposed, if the alliance of the three tribes does not assemble the regular troops of tens of millions of army groups, they will suffer, but they have already suffered a big defeat, and it will take time to replenish the equipment, therefore, they need more time to replenish the equipment, therefore, I estimate, this time will not be less than three hundred years, if it takes longer, it would be better. ”

Sun Tiejian nodded and said, "I agree with your analysis, then, what kind of tactics will they use?" "Oh? "All of their large forces have retreated, leaving only some defensive troops, and the big planets in their various river systems, because of the existence of river teleportation arrays, they can use these river teleportation arrays to make a fuss, I can call their tactics an island tactic. ”

"Island tactics?" "Yes, they don't need more defense troops, they only need to leave a part of the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss masters, and their role is to defend against the river teleportation array on the big planet. If we want to destroy these system teleportation arrays, the price we have to pay will not be light, and besides, we may not destroy these river teleportation arrays, for us, the best way is to occupy these river teleportation arrays, because, in the future, we need these river system teleportation arrays. ”

"If we want to occupy these river teleportation arrays, we need to send troops to fight ground battles with the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss, I think, how strong the ground battle of the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss is, everyone knows in their hearts, if one is not good, we will have to lose our troops. And what about them? It's very easy to do, if the river teleportation array is not destroyed, their masters can use the river teleportation array to teleport to the rear. If the river system teleportation array is destroyed, they will choose to surrender, but it is just tens of thousands of masters, and it will not hurt the bones of the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss. However, in this way, it will take a very long time for us to capture a river system, which will also provide more time for the tribal alliance to produce more equipment to replenish the troops, so that they can concentrate their forces and fight us to the death. ”

Sun Tiejian smiled and said: "Yes, the island tactic is indeed very powerful, then, Tie Fang, do you have any way to crack it?" Han Tiefang shook his head and said: "There is no way, the only way is to attack one by one." Hearing this, all the high-level leaders of the Xuanwu Legion gasped and attacked the big planet defended by the Ten Thousand Beast God Clan? Is this a joke or what?

Don't think that the Xuanwu Legion can ignore the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss by easily destroying hundreds of river teleportation arrays, yes, in a space war, the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss is indeed only a soy sauce fight, but if you want to occupy the river teleportation array without destroying the river teleportation array, these are completely two concepts. If it is just destroyed, the Yanhuang clan can do it in at least ten or more ways, and it can still be done without injuring a single soldier, but if it is occupied, it is another matter. Because, this has to send troops to the big planet to fight against the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss.

Sending troops to fight a ground war with the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss is a headache for any race, and the space battle of the Monster Protoss is indeed not very good, but in the ground war, there is no race in the universe that is the opponent of the Ten Thousand Beast Protoss, and the huge number is enough to make any race daunted.

Sun Tiejian said: "If I give you the task of attacking all the big planets, Tie Fang, what will you do?" Han Tiefang gritted his teeth and said: "Third brother, I have to thank you very much, you really want to use me to death." "Hehe, do you think that if I don't give you the task, my father will let you go?" "I really don't know whether I should thank God or curse it for having such a father who forced his son to death. "Hehe, let's think about it, this task is yours, you can't run away." ”

Han Tiefang could only smile bitterly except for sighing, Cheng, this task has fallen on him again, but what way can he deal with this isolated island tactic? This tactic is simply an incomprehensible tactic, unless it is to destroy the entire planet, otherwise, he really can't think of any way to do this. (To be continued.) )
