Chapter 320 Reversal
The next morning, after a night's rest and full of energy, everyone had a simple breakfast and set out on horseback.
They did not rush to find the traces of the large Lizardman army, but first went to the place where Li Ce left misleading information yesterday.
After arriving at the place, Li Ce dismounted from his horse and looked around, and his attention was soon attracted by a patch of footprints.
"These are the footprints of the velociraptors. They have been here. I estimate that it was after nightfall yesterday."
If it was daytime, he had arranged sentries here and they would definitely be able to receive the intelligence, but after nightfall, the sentries withdrew for safety reasons.
This discovery made Li Ce frown slightly. He had a bad feeling.
But Drogo, Silk and others on the side didn't seem to realize anything.
Li Ce didn't say much and just jumped on the horse.
"Let's go! Let's go find the Lizardmen's main force!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ce shouted "Go" and rushed out.
Compared to yesterday, the main force of Lizardmen is definitely not in its original location, but as long as we know where their destination is, it is not difficult to find them.
Indeed, they found their target quickly.
But the following discovery made everyone, including Li Ce, change their expressions.
At around eight or nine o'clock in the morning, when the troops should have launched a massive advance, the large Lizardman army was actually stationed in the distance to rest!
This discovery made Li Ce's face darken instantly.
"Damn it, they realized it, and these lizardmen started traveling at night and resting during the day!"
Li Ce realized this and quickly turned his head to look at Silk.
"Just to confirm, do you grassland elves have night vision?"
Faced with this question, Silk shook his head with a grim expression.
This completely confirmed that among the three forces, only the Centaur tribe led by Drogo had night vision.
This directly led to a sharp decline in their combat capability at night.
On the other hand, all the Lizardmen have night vision, so they have no problem traveling or fighting at night.
"The Lizardmen's large army travels at night, so it is difficult for us to launch an attack on them. During the day, they simply stay where they are and rest, and they can devote enough energy to guard against our attacks..."
Obviously, Silk has completely reacted by now.
From Silk's perspective, this adjustment by the Lizardman army was simply forcing them into a dead end.
At this moment, Ye Jinghong's voice rang out.
"The Lizardmen just traveled here the day before, and they traveled all night without rest last night to adjust their tactics. Do you think their condition can be any better now?"
When it comes to the topic of "efficiency", absolutely no one can be more perceptive than Ye Jinghong. After all, he is a person who is extremely particular about efficiency and cannot stand any procrastination.
"We launched the attack during the day when they were resting, so that they couldn't get enough rest during the day. How would they be able to travel at night?"
Having said this, Ye Jinghong paused.
"At first glance, this move by the enemy seems to have hit the weak spot of our lack of combat capability at night, but in fact it is extremely stupid. If it were me, I would not have used the previous night to travel. I would have either simply rested and recuperated, or directly searched for your whereabouts and defeated you under the cover of darkness."
"As long as there is no threat from the harassment troops, can't we arrange other things as we wish?"
Ye Jinghong's words made Silk and Drogo, who were still having a headache a moment ago, look at each other in confusion.
There is no need to say much about who is in charge of the human cavalry team. After successfully joining forces with Li Ce, both Zhou Chongshan and Ye Jinghong deliberately reduced their presence and followed Li Ce's command.
Silk obviously didn't expect that Ye Jinghong, who had little presence, would hit the point right away! This was an angle that they hadn't noticed before.
This made them prick up their ears and listen carefully.
"So in the face of the Lizardmen's mobilization, we want to respond, and the key lies in this daytime. Once they get through this daytime and successfully reverse their day and night schedules, we really won't be able to do much to them."
"On the other hand, as long as they are not allowed to rest during the day, the Lizardmen's move will be a way to their own death!"
After the plan was finalized, their three cavalry teams quickly took action.
As the enemy approached, the sound of the alarm horn quickly spread throughout the entire Lizardman camp, and a large number of velociraptors quickly went out to meet the enemy.
It must be admitted that compared with the marching state of a large army, the stationed state is more conducive to their defense.
However, compared with yesterday, Li Ce and his team undoubtedly changed their attack method again at Ye Jinghong's suggestion.
Yesterday, due to the absence of pterosaur riders, they made a deployment to gather together, concentrate their forces, and increase casualties on the opposite side.
But now the situation has changed again, and the three forces have once again taken action separately.
This time, causing more casualties to the other side has become a secondary matter. The core purpose is to make the other side restless!
With this purpose in mind, many times they don't even need to launch an offensive, they just need to show up near the Lizardman camp.
As long as they find their traces, the Lizardmen have to blow the horn and sound the alarm, the main purpose of which is to annoy them to death.
The horn kept sounding, asking the lizardmen in the camp if they could still have a good rest.
Maintaining this rhythm for a whole day, although the Lizardmen suffered basically no casualties, they were exhausted by the actions of Ye Jinghong and his men.
As the sun set, the three cavalry teams rode away one after another, leaving behind a group of lizardmen who wanted to tear them apart alive and went crazy.
"Commander, are we still going to advance tonight?"
Inside the tent of the Lizardman leader, the adjutant, who had sunken eyes and looked out of spirits because he had not been able to rest properly the entire time, asked this question hesitantly.
Hearing this question, the Lizardman leader leaning over there knocked his forehead hard and squeezed out two words from between his teeth.
"rest!"
It's not that he hadn't thought about destroying the opposing cavalry under the cover of night. In fact, he had already launched the operation last night, but came to nothing.
The grassland is vast, how easy is it to find the wandering cavalry? Not to mention that their core goal now is to quickly advance to the outside of the enemy camp. As long as they do this, the enemy will not be able to use any tricks!
