Chapter 1258 Failed
It was undoubtedly a peaceful night. Neither side took any action and rested peacefully, adding a bit of tranquility to the entire night.
It was a new day, and the coalition forces led by Da Zhou woke up before dawn as usual, and the kitchen staff began to prepare breakfast.
Although Li Ce's strategic planning has allowed them to take the lead throughout the process, they still cannot be careless. They still have to continue to retreat at the right time and try to keep a safe distance from the opponent as much as possible to reduce the probability of accidents.
During this period, as the coalition forces woke up, the air force naturally had to start working in full swing.
Relying on the aerial vision, they searched for the traces of the greenskin army at the fastest speed. After locking the target, a demolition bomb directly woke up the greenskin army that was still sleeping soundly.
"WAAAAGH!!!!"
At that moment, the greenskins were furious and rushed out roaring.
Compared to earlier, after a night's rest, it can be seen from the scene that their mental state has improved a lot.
According to the fatigue accumulated before, the greenskins were allowed to sleep until they woke up naturally. This time, they might not be able to open their eyes until noon.
Of course, the air force's initiative to provide "wake-up service" was not out of kindness, but simply because they didn't want the greenskins to continue resting.
This night's rest greatly relieved the fatigue accumulated by the greenskins before. Now, after being forcibly awakened by the air force, the greenskin general simply stopped sleeping, ate some dry food, and directly ordered to start the pursuit.
Among them, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry undoubtedly took the lead.
After all, this time they still have to rely mainly on the wolf noses of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry to track the target.
Following the smell, the greenskins' pursuit finally went smoothly.
In this regard, the air force would naturally not let them proceed too smoothly, and directly listed the Goblin Wolf Cavalry as their bombing targets.
However, compared with ordinary greenskins, the Goblin Wolf Riders are still too flexible.
The first few times, as soon as they spotted their presence, they immediately dispersed their formation. Later, the Goblin Wolf Riders simply maintained a dispersed formation throughout the entire process. Coupled with their agility, they were able to basically minimize the impact and threat that the explosive bombs could bring to them.
As for the large greenskin army, they are not so good at hiding, but they can resist, and each of them has thick skin and flesh.
Not to mention, after such a night's rest, during the day, the presence of the air force would not play any more of a role except for slightly affecting their advancement efficiency.
This made the Greenskin General's terrible mood of the past two days significantly improved. Invisibly, he felt that Bloody King was a little more pleasing to the eye.
However, this smooth progress did not last forever, and the goblin wolf cavalrymen who were leading the pursuit soon encountered new situations.
"Report to the general, the smell ahead has split into three paths, leading to three different directions."
Obviously, Li Ce had made other preparations to reduce the efficiency of greenskin tracking.
After hearing the report, the greenskin general cursed.
"WAAAAGH! What a stupid trick! Tell the main force to rest on the spot, and have the wolf cavalry split into three teams and follow three routes to confirm!"
After getting some rest, the greenskin general regained some rationality in his mind and made the corresponding judgment quickly.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when the large greenskin army was resting in place, the air force directly increased the frequency of bombing and dealt them heavy blows.
As for the three goblin wolf cavalry squads that acted separately, they didn't pay much attention to them.
Those three routes were not boring misleading. In fact, each route was real, but two of them led to the supply points of their air forces, and the smell along the way was left by the troops bringing supplies to them.
After all, their air forces need to conduct continuous surveillance and frequent harassment operations on the large greenskin forces.
With this as a premise, if they have to fly back to the main force to rest and replenish equipment every time they complete a mission, then the higher the frequency, the more they will consume a lot of extra physical energy.
Taking this into consideration, the best way is actually to set up an independent temporary camp for them as their supply point.
Of course, as the greenskin troops began to advance, their air force's temporary camp also moved further away.
If the Goblin Wolf Cavalry followed the smell now, they would at most find an empty space with basically nothing left. Moreover, the distance was quite long and would delay them for quite a while.
This was indeed the case. When two of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry teams followed the scent and tracked to an empty space where there was nothing left, and then discovered that the scent had been cut off, even if they turned back as quickly as possible to report, it was already past noon.
This is when the Goblin Wolf Cavalry's mobility efficiency is still pretty good.
When two routes have been ruled out, the remaining one is naturally the correct one.
They chased until it was almost dark, and found that the road ahead had forked again.
At this time, Blood Hand King's brows were completely twisted into a knot.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Blood Hand King spoke in a deep voice...
"No need to chase him anymore. I can't catch him. This matter has been messed up."
Hearing this, the greenskin general was angry at first, but then he couldn't help but sigh, and punched the big tree next to him. The towering tree broke into two parts on the spot and fell to the ground with a loud bang.
He was not stupid. The other party used one method after another. While harassing them and slowing down their efficiency, they kept distancing themselves from them.
If the situation continues like this, they will be passive throughout the whole process, the distance between the two sides will only get bigger and bigger, and there is no possibility of catching up.
With things turning out like this, I won't die, but I guess things won't be any better.
At the same time, on the border of the Saint Laurent Empire, as a former member of the coalition forces, they naturally recognized the Pegasus Knights of the female warrior clan.
After learning from the Pegasus Knight that the greenskins had sent a large force to intercept the reinforcements, Marshal Adolf acted decisively and immediately ordered the army to attack, turning from defense to offense!
"Since the greenskins have sent out troops to intercept the reinforcements, they will definitely send out enough Vajra Realm forces to ensure that everything goes well. This may be a good opportunity to severely damage the greenskin royal family! Pass on my order and let the Vajra Realm forces enter the battlefield! It's time to launch a counterattack!!"
