Chapter 484 Stormwind Army's Night Raid Fails, War Enters Stalemate

The Zerg territory is already close ahead.

Many Zerg buildings and the riders on horseback could already see them clearly.

A hint of excitement crossed their faces.

They couldn't wait to rush into the Zerg territory and start wreaking havoc.

In that case, he would certainly be credited first.

You'll definitely be praised when you get back.

However, imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

Three minutes later.

The cavalry force entered the area covered by the highly poisonous lair.

"Boom boom boom!"

The sounds of explosions rose and fell, echoing throughout the entire world.

Acid flew everywhere, and sparks flew in all directions.

The explosion of the highly toxic lair generated unparalleled power.

The charging cavalry force was scattered and broken.

The cavalrymen at the epicenter of the explosion were instantly melted, leaving no trace of their remains.

The cavalrymen on the verge of explosion were covered by large amounts of acid, greatly reducing their movement speed.

Just then.

Kerrigan led her Zerg army out.

"Kill them all!"

"Don't let anyone escape!"

Kerrigan's gaze was cold, and her voice carried a chilling murderous intent.

She took the lead and charged forward.

Behind them, springtails, hydralisks, roaches, and xenomorphs joined forces to launch an attack.

Under normal circumstances, the sheer power of these 100,000 high-ranking cavalrymen charging into battle would be immense.

Furthermore, the impact of their charge is terrifying, capable of inflicting massive damage on the swarm.

However, now, impacted by the poisonous lair, the cavalry force has become chaotic and its movement speed has been greatly reduced.

Despite their elite status, these cavalrymen were utterly powerless against the frenzied onslaught of the insect swarm.

Half an hour later.

Under the strangulation of the insect swarm, this cavalry force of 100,000 men was completely wiped out.

General Lothar's plan to raid the camp has failed.

"Trying to ambush me is simply overestimating your own abilities."

Looking at the corpses of cavalrymen scattered all over the ground, Su Bai's lips curled into a smile.

Back when he was in school, he loved the history of the Three Kingdoms period, and he was particularly fond of the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, reading it over and over again.

Therefore, when he was in the Land of Redemption, he was very sensitive to nighttime raids on camps whenever there was a war, and he took very good precautions.

In this operation, Zhao Ganwu and An Ruoyun were ordered to lead their troops to establish camps outside the territory, forming a pincer movement with the interstellar Zerg territory.

He learned this trick from the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Unexpectedly, the results were surprisingly good.

Therefore, it is clear that the wisdom of our ancestors was great.

"My lord, we have won a great victory. Our casualties are almost negligible."

Kerrigan stepped forward, a smile on his face.

...

...

"What!"

"The raid has failed!"

"The 100,000 cavalrymen sent out were completely wiped out, with not a single survivor?"

General Lothar's eyes widened, his face showing deep horror.

Upon receiving this news, he could hardly believe it, after all, this elite 100,000-strong high-level cavalry force was extremely powerful.

Furthermore, they departed secretly from within the camp and were aided by the invisibility magic of an elven mage, making it absolutely impossible for them to be discovered.

Damn it!

"Is this Su Bai still hiding his true strength?"

The failure of the surprise attack made General Lothar feel that Su Bai must still have some trump cards up his sleeve.

He decided to abandon nighttime raids from now on.

After all, the first failure had already put the other party on their guard.

If such an offensive plan is carried out again in the future, it would be nothing short of throwing away lives.

General Lothar wasn't a fool; he naturally understood that in the current situation, only by defeating the Zerg swarm head-on could they win this war.

"The enemy has established two camps, which are connected to the territory from afar, forming a three-in-one structure that is extremely secure!"

"Taking them down now won't be an easy task!"

"It seems we need to prepare for a long war!"

I thought this would be a very easy war.

But now, the situation has become complicated.

General Lothar couldn't think of a way to defeat the enemy for the time being.

Meanwhile, the swarm was unable to break through the Stormwind army of over 6 million.

The two armies remained locked in a stalemate once again.

Although there were occasional small-scale battles, no large-scale campaigns broke out.

...

...

And so it went, with fighting on and off.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

Zerg territory in space.

Su Bai gathered everyone together for a military meeting.

"Now, we are at a stalemate with the enemy, and neither side can gain the upper hand for the time being."

"Although our defenses are very strong and there is no possibility of them being breached by the Stormwind army, such a long drag on is still disadvantageous to us."

Su Bai got straight to the point, stating his opinion.

"Therefore, we must speed things up and end this war."

The siege by Stormwind forces brought the Zerg's expansion across the StarCraft territory to a standstill.

Due to the prolonged war, resources could not be collected smoothly, and there was no way to expand territory or reclaim new local forces.

There's no way to kill a large number of wild beasts, monsters, or other creatures.

This has resulted in a very slow increase in the prices of many resources, such as wood, stone, iron, and soul.

If they remain besieged by Stormwind's army, this situation will not change.

The territory's forward development will continue to stagnate.

Located in the Land of Redemption, there are many human lords, fierce competition, and many mysterious local forces.

Like rowing against the current, if you don't move forward, you'll fall behind.

If things stagnate, it's equivalent to regressing.

Therefore, although Stormwind still has more than 6 million troops, they must do everything they can to end this war as soon as possible.

Su Bai still has many enemies.

His journey is to the stars and the sea.

We absolutely cannot let Stormwind hold us back.

"My lord, you are right!"

"This war has been going on for more than half a month now."

"During this period, both the territory level and the number of insect swarms have been severely hampered in terms of development speed."

Zhao Ganwu nodded, indicating his support for Su Bai's idea.

“However, Stormwind still has over six million elite troops, and it will be very difficult for us to defeat them,” An Ruoyun said, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed.

“You’re right! So we must come up with a perfect plan to allow the swarm to defeat the enemy at the lowest possible cost,” Su Bai said.

Regarding tactical issues, neither Dehaka nor Abathur can offer much help.

Standing at 36 meters tall, Dehaka is a large man, only suitable for charging into battle and killing enemies.

As the evolutionary master of the Zerg swarm, Abathur can only be responsible for the evolution of units; the role of strategist is somewhat unsuitable for him.
