Chapter 560 Guerrilla Tactics
Congratulations! Congratulations on your marriage!
When Qin Mo visited Allen's house for the third time, she finally ran into Allen and Audrey, who had been away for half a month and had just returned.
"Oh! Could it be that His Highness Prince Heng, whose wealth rivals that of a kingdom, came empty-handed to offer his congratulations?"
"Don't worry! I'll make sure you're satisfied with the wedding gift. I'm just here to freeload today. But should I call you sister-in-law... or Aunt Audrey? Oh dear... should your little nephew call me uncle or brother-in-law?"
Allen was a little embarrassed by Qin Mo's visit, but Audrey was very generous and even teased Qin Mo about being stingy. However, Qin Mo was not intimidated by Audrey at all and immediately teased her back with a smile, making Audrey's face turn both shy and embarrassed.
"Get lost, there's no food here for you!"
Allen had a headache watching Qin Mo switch to his mischievous mode. He knew that if he let Qin Mo keep rambling on, who knew what kind of trouble he would cause? So he immediately told him to get lost.
"No...you've forgotten your brothers just because you got married? How could you... after all these years of brotherhood?"
Allen launched a flying kick at Qin Mo, who was half-pushed and half-forced back, flying backwards. In mid-air, she imitated the sound of a ball being kicked and punched, making her own sound effects: "Pfft... splat!"
Audrey burst into laughter, and even the usually aloof Allen couldn't help but smile. He had no way to deal with his adopted brother; in his eyes, Qin Mo would always be that little boy who liked to tickle his pointed ears.
"Tell me! Why did you come here today?" Allen sat down properly, and Audrey brought out tea sets to make tea for the two of them, not minding Qin Mo's joke just now at all.
"Can't I come if I don't have anything to do?! Allen, you're so heartless..."
"How many times have you come here over the years? Every time you come, it's for a reason. Either you want me to fight for you, or you want me to fight for your mistress..."
Allen gave Qin Mo a look of disdain. Qin Mo rarely came to his place; wouldn't it be like she was asking for trouble if she did? Allen couldn't stand Qin Mo having any free time. If Qin Mo wanted to come over, he guaranteed that what awaited her was a round of high-intensity training.
"Alright, alright! I'm here on important business today. I'm actually here to see Audrey. I received a letter from Shia. She said that the sea people encountered an invasion by the Rakshasa in the Persian Gulf region. What exactly happened?"
"Ah? Oh! That's right!" Audrey, who had just perked up her ears, wanting to hear some secrets about Qin Mo's "lover," was caught off guard when Qin Mo turned the question to her. After calming down, she slowly explained the current situation in the Persian region.
After Queen Shia controlled the Caspian Sea to flood the city of Rai, she waited on the shores of the Caspian Sea for a long time, but Arthas did not retaliate. Arthas seemed to have vanished into thin air.
The area surrounding Lai City was home to the majority of the Rakshasa's southern expeditionary force. Apart from a few powerful individuals with strength exceeding that of an overseer and those strange undead knights, none of them survived the powerful tsunami.
For a time, the remaining Rakshasa and Orcs in the Persian region dared not gather within a hundred miles of the sea, for fear of becoming the next target.
Shia cannot stay in the Persian region for long, and she must rely on the power of the sea to unleash her extraordinary strength. If she ventures into the land to search for Arthas's whereabouts, her strength will be greatly reduced.
Someone had sternly warned her not to deal with Arthas alone. She used the power of the sea to trick Arthas, which vented her anger. After failing to find a worthwhile target, she returned to Hania.
However, the Rakshasa did not completely withdraw from the Persian region in the following period. Instead of large-scale operations, they continued to harass adventurous caravans and various strongholds of the temple in the Persian region, using the Knights of the Dead as the backbone.
The traditional sphere of influence of the Sea Clan did not include the Persian region. Originally, Shia thought that the two sides would never meet again, but he did not expect that the Rakshasa alliance was not one to suffer losses without fighting back.
"The large tribes supported by our sea people have been gradually unifying the peninsula region on the west coast of the Persian Gulf, following the advice and assistance of King Heng. Everything was going very smoothly until a few months ago when the undead legion of the Rakshasa suddenly crossed the Zacros Mountains and launched a despicable harassment and attack on the tribes we supported."
“They usually disperse into dozens of small units to ambush us, only gathering together when they occasionally launch a full-scale attack. Our sea tribe has too few people to pinpoint their gathering location. Queen Shia personally led elite troops to track them across the entire peninsula for half a month, but only managed to capture three small units, which was of no use.”
"I get it, this is a typical guerrilla tactic. Aren't those undead knights all idiots? How could they come up with such a brilliant tactic?"
After hearing Audrey describe the enemy's tactics, Qin Mo immediately imagined the scene.
The pure-blooded descendants of the mermaid royal family number less than a hundred, while the other mermaids with impure bloodlines have little fighting power on land. Faced with the formidable army of the dead, the mermaids, lacking experience in land warfare and short-handed, are unable to cope with this tactic of harassment, strong attacks, and flexible transitions.
Those tribal militia members wearing headscarves, without rigorous tactical training, were simply no match for these demonic enemies, let alone be able to break into small groups and pursue them.
