Outside the battlefield where fierce fighting was taking place.
Powell of the Bexia Foundation and Valen of the Kingdom of Locke, which is a little further away, have both received the call for help from Nordenburg.
At this moment, both Powell and Warren were shocked.
The current situation is that if Powell wants to support Stella, even if he sends the fastest troops and sends a mecha squadron away from the main force for support, it will take an hour and a half, or even two hours to reach the battlefield.
If it is a motorized force, this time will be longer.
Because the roads in the uninhabited areas are now so uninhabited, these motorized troops simply cannot run.
The road was covered with sand in sections. Although it was easier to walk on than the wilderness, how could these armored personnel carriers, or even large trucks, travel fast on such a road?
Not to mention Valen, which is even farther away, it is not on the same road and the distance is quite far.
Even if we want the mecha troops to come to the rescue, it will take at least eight to ten hours.
The only one who can support Stella the fastest now is Powell from the Bexia Foundation.
If we wait for Valen who is farther away, then Stella's bones can be used to play drums.
Here at the Bexia Foundation.
In the moving convoy, Powell received Marion's request for help.
After receiving this request for help, Powell's face changed drastically.
He came to the front of the holographic map and observed it carefully, his face still as gloomy as water.
After a long while, he slowly said: "The enemy was originally coming for us!"
"Stella, took the knife for us."
His chief of staff inquired, "Sir, why do you say that?"
Powell said, "Originally, our marching route would pass through this battlefield before we attack the enemies of the Gaswu Order."
"Because of the temporary adjustment of the battle plan, our march missed this line."
The Chief of Staff quickly said, "Sir, I will mobilize the troops now and order them to support us at full speed!"
But the next moment, Powell raised his hand and shook his head to stop his chief of staff.
He quickly calculated something and evaluated the combat effectiveness of both sides.
After a short while, he took a deep breath and said, "Something's wrong!"
The Chief of Staff quickly asked, "What's the matter, sir?"
Powell's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "The balance of power between the enemy and us is unbalanced."
"Stella is now surrounded. Facing the enemy's heavy bombardment, their strength will be greatly weakened."
"If we attack now, I'm afraid it will just be a tactic of adding fuel to the fire."
His chief of staff also calmed down and analyzed: "You have a point."
"The blueprints include at least 120 mechas, and even if we include Stella, we only have a little over 110 mechas."
"They are now under siege. If we outnumber them, they will lose some of their mecha units. By the time we arrive, they may have lost more than half, or even more..."
"In this way, after we pass through, the mecha troops will still be at a disadvantage."
Powell looked at his chief of staff with approval. The chief of staff was a young man, while he was old.
This battle was also a chance for the veteran to make use of his remaining energy. The original plan was to fight a crushing battle with superior military strength, and to provide training for the Bexia Foundation at the same time.
But now, because of Li Xin's proactive attack, the entire battlefield environment has changed, and this will cause big problems.
Powell sighed: "Yeah, we'll be at a disadvantage."
He said frankly: "Of course, although we are at a disadvantage, we will definitely not be defeated."
"We will be able to fight against Blueprint's army if we unite with Stella's forces."
His chief of staff added: "But will our losses be great?"
Powell nodded: "Yes, the losses will be huge!"
"Mechanized troops are different from our conventional armored and motorized troops."
"How can conventional troops defeat the enemy's mecha cluster force?"
"Our mechas and Stella's remaining soldiers combined are no match for the enemy's numbers. The consequences are obvious."
"Even if we assume the best when we arrive, Stella still has thirty Hounds. Adding our fifty, there are only eighty on each side."
"And the enemy still has at least a hundred more. Sometimes we have to face up to the difference in numbers."
"Even if our eighty mechas can fight the enemy's mechas on equal terms, there will still be losses."
"Wait ten hours, and Valen will lead his two squadrons of mechas to support us. We will certainly win the final victory in the battle."
Powell patted his chief of staff and said, "But what about the losses incurred during this period?"
"Will we lose twenty, or thirty mechas?"
With such a huge loss of mechas, how much loss will our two brigades suffer?
The chief of staff was stunned for a moment. He said, "If the forces are evenly matched, we will suffer losses, but won't the enemy also suffer losses?"
Powell laughed and said, "Of course, that's for sure!"
"The Hound's overall combat attributes are no worse than the enemy's Dagger Squires. Although our mecha operators lack combat experience, they can still inflict casualties on the enemy thanks to their mecha attributes."
"However, no matter how many enemies we kill, even if we achieve final victory, there will still be heavy casualties!"
"What will happen after the war?"
The chief of staff was stunned for a moment. He said, "What should we do after the war?"
Powell walked to his seat and sat down, saying slowly, "Yes, our Bexia Foundation only has two squadrons of mecha units. If we lose twenty or thirty of them, how long will it take to recover?"
"After the victory, the Gaswu Order was essentially destroyed, and most of the scholars have been abducted."
"Dewan Technology is in much the same boat. After the street fighting, it's a mess, not to mention Nordenburg."
"Do you think they'll have the money to buy us mechas?"
"If we want to restore our mecha units, we can only buy them from the Locke Kingdom. The current mecha production capacity and whether it can be supplied to the Kingdom's front lines are even a problem. Our mechas can't be bought with money."
The chief of staff nodded and figured it all out.
Powell continued to explain, "The battle was won. Stella and her team recovered their lost territory and are the winners. Valen achieved the greatest military merit and is also the winner!"
"Only our Bexia Foundation lost its mecha. Although we won the battle, we, like Blueprint's defense director, are losers!"
