Chapter 1166: A single move affects the entire body
Compared to the battle on the front battlefield, Shi Lei was not afraid that the greenskins would send heavy troops in the battle on the extension section. The environment and terrain over there were destined to be unable to accommodate large-scale troops for combat.
Under this premise, they seized the key point and deployed defenses with the help of the terrain, which allowed them to further contain the greenskin forces.
The size of the pass is so small that even if you come with an army of 100,000, you still have to queue up and enter slowly.
The greenskins are obviously not that stupid. Their main forces are still concentrated on the front battlefield. The forces sent to the extended section for infiltration are mainly to harass the garrison troops in Copperforge. To put it bluntly, their purpose is to mess with their mentality, and they do not need large forces.
What they ended up doing was running into the Da Zhou troops who were ready for battle at all times.
This was not the first time they had faced the greenskin rookies. The soldiers cooperated directly with the Centaur troops to block the pass with spear formations. Without heavy units like the ogres, the greenskin soldiers with limited numbers could not break through in a short period of time.
Even if something really happens later, don’t we have the Centaur Army to back us up?
Don't forget, Drogo is a warrior at the Hundred Refinements Realm level. Fighting against such a small force is the best way to demonstrate the value of a warrior's combat power! On the extension side, the greenskin troops were caught off guard and suppressed throughout the whole process without any psychological preparation.
At the same time, on the main battlefield, taking advantage of the terrain of Tonglu Fort, the Great Zhou troops were in a dominant position and directly used wooden spears and blasting vehicles to form a continuous suppression.
After the distance was shortened, the crossbowmen of the Great Zhou immediately responded with multi-stage shooting, which also stabilized the situation, greatly beyond Bale's expectations.
Bale originally thought that even if the Great Zhou army performed well during the day, humans do not have night vision. At night, their vision is limited, and the psychological pressure will become greater, and there is a high probability that something will go wrong.
In fact, this is true. This situation is too stressful for new recruits, and some mistakes are inevitable, and some mistakes can cause a chain reaction if they are not careful.
The Great Zhou's position was thrown into chaos for a time because of this.
At that moment, Bale, who was standing on the wall next door, had already ordered the troops to be mobilized.
Who would have thought that a cry of "For the Emperor!!!"
Along with the deafening war cry, those four words seemed to have a special magic. The recruits who were originally in chaos and panic due to mistakes and accidents, their wills quickly became firm in the war cry! The fearless look made Barley feel that these recruits could draw their swords and fight the greenskins head-on in the next second!
To him, this was simply incredible.
Having served in the coalition forces, he knew the status of human soldiers very well.
The greenskins are terrifying to human soldiers. They have a similar appearance to humans, but their physical fitness is far superior to humans. They are simply a super-enhanced version of humans.
This makes human soldiers often have a highly tense mental state, or even nervous and fearful, when facing the greenskins.
Because they know that they are too weak compared to the greenskins. As long as they make the slightest mistake and the greenskins seize the opportunity, it will inevitably turn into a crazy massacre against them!
This was also the main reason why Bale didn't take the human reinforcements from the Great Zhou seriously when Woking mentioned them earlier.
However, the performance of the Great Zhou soldiers before him was beyond his expectations. The dwarf warriors of their Copperforge Castle were almost the same...
And such a situation is not a surprise to Bale? According to the intelligence sent back from various battlefields, the area that Da Zhou is responsible for has obviously received special attention from the greenskins.
This basically fits with their guess during the day that the greenskins wanted to use this defense line of the Great Zhou as a breakthrough point.
Who could have thought that the result would be a complete failure?
This situation made Bale's brain work at high speed.
"Pass my order, we will fight back in this battle tonight!"
The greenskins focus on the Great Zhou defense line, which means that the greenskins on other defense lines will have fewer troops! At this moment, there is only one idea left in Bale's mind, which is to seize this opportunity and severely reduce the greenskins' troops!
After receiving Bale's order, the Copperforge dwarves, as the defending party, were extremely aggressive that night, and the boar riders were galloping wildly on the mountain outside the protective wall!
Don't underestimate the fighting power of the dwarves. Although they are short, they are sturdy. When they roll up their sleeves, their arms are thicker than human thighs! Undoubtedly, this is also a race that can fight the greenskins head-on with their individual soldier qualities.
In addition, the dwarves also possess excellent manufacturing technology, which allows them to have powerful military equipment.
With strong physical fitness, outstanding technical ability, and a long natural lifespan, the combination of these three makes the dwarves seem almost invincible.
Now they are suppressed by the greenskins and forced to retreat to Copperforge to fight a defensive battle. The main reason is that the greenskins on the opposite side have too many more troops than them. It is also related to the inaction of some forces within the coalition.
During this period of time, they have been holding back a lot of anger. Now that they have the chance, they will fight back. In other battlefields, facing the sudden force of the dwarf troops, the greenskins felt the pressure doubled.
Although under Bale's command, the dwarf troops did not directly support the defense line on that side where the Great Zhou troops were located, they were ultimately on the same battlefield.
A single move will affect the entire body. Their counterattack will directly bring pressure to the entire greenskin army that is launching an offensive.
The latest battle situation has apparently been fed back to the greenskins' base camp behind the battlefield.
As of now, the entire situation can be said to have completely exceeded their expectations.
The goblin strategist standing in the tent suddenly fell silent.
After listening to the report, the greenskin king picked him up.
"WAAAGH! Is this what you call an easy defeat?!"
"Great, great king, please spare my life."
The greenskin king's ever-tightening force made it difficult for the goblin strategist to breathe, and his entire green face turned black.
At this moment, the Goblin Military Advisor himself felt extremely aggrieved.
Who would have thought that the strength of the human forces they faced this time was completely different from those they had encountered before?
The fragile goblin strategist had no power to resist the greenskin king.
Seeing the other party begging for mercy and thinking that this guy was still somewhat useful, the Greenskin King snorted coldly, let go of him and threw him to the ground.
The Goblin strategist, who was about to die, took a deep breath, but was choked by his own saliva and almost coughed out his lungs.
The greenskin king ignored him and gave the order directly...
"Send the signal and withdraw the troops!"
