Chapter 321: The Final
Victory
The devastating sound of the horn sounded after nightfall.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"
At that moment, the entire camp of lizardmen were almost going crazy. They never thought that the bastards on the opposite side would dare to come and cause trouble for them after nightfall!
Li Ce and Silk, who don't have night vision, certainly don't dare to do that, but the Centaurs led by Drogo do! Drogo and his men took advantage of the night and appeared near the Lizardmen camp for a simple purpose.
According to Ye Jinghong's intention, he wanted them to confirm what kind of response the Lizardmen would choose to make that night.
At this point in time, the other party has not taken any action, and the answer is self-evident.
Under this premise, as the only force on their side with night vision, the task of making the other side restless naturally fell on Drogo and his men.
This is the latest arrangement made by Ye Jinghong.
Faced with an opponent whose military strength is obviously superior to theirs and who has almost no chance of winning in a head-on battle, if they want to win, they have to use extraordinary means. If they follow the routine, how can they stand any chance of winning?
At this time Ye Jinghong's idea was very simple, that is, from this moment on, their three forces would be divided into two parts. They and Silk would be responsible for harassment attacks during the day, while the Centaur tribe headed by Drogo would be responsible for the attacks at night.
In this way, they can all get relatively stable rest time, while the lizardmen on the opposite side will have no peace 24 hours a day.
The only impact is that the power is dispersed, but as long as the Lizardmen do not get enough rest and their condition continues to decline, this little problem will not be a big deal.
Ye Jinghong did not make any combat demands for Drogo and his men who were carrying out night operations. He just wanted to harass the other side and prevent them from sleeping peacefully.
This little thing is undoubtedly simple for Drogo and his men.
Every once in a while, they would run wildly near the Lizardman camp.
Later on, they even began to take the initiative to help each other blow the horn, blowing it as they ran, trying to make the sound of the horn resound throughout the entire camp.
This extremely shameless behavior made the Lizardman leader so angry that he went crazy.
【Is it true that my previous decision was wrong? 】
If they continued in the previous state, they would at least have some time to rest after dark. But now, they can't even have a moment of peace.
Whenever he thought of this, the Lizardman Leader's expression twisted a little.
He hadn't had a good rest for a long time, so his eyes were bloodshot. His face was distorted and looked so ferocious that he looked like a demon.
"No, I'm not wrong!"
As a commander, even if he is really wrong, he will not admit it. Admitting mistakes is equivalent to shaking his authority!
"You want to play this trick, right? If you don't want me to have peace, then why don't you just not sleep at all!"
Thinking of this, the Lizardman leader called his adjutant loudly and gave the order.
"Pass the order and send out the Swift Dragon Cavalry to search for traces of the enemy cavalry. They appear near our main force every morning, so they must not be too far away from us!"
The order was given, and although the lizardmen were tired, they were also very angry and took action.
Drogo noticed the commotion here and seemed to have realized something, but he didn't dare to go back to report it.
Because the opposing Swift Dragon Cavalry also targeted them as they rushed out.
If we run back directly to report the news, wouldn't that be the same as leading the enemy?
There is no other choice but to let Li Ce and the others fend for themselves.
At the same time, seeing the large number of dragoons rushing out from the Lizardman camp, Drogo and his men could not bear to stay here. Once a battle broke out, the enemy would rely on their superior force to encircle them, and they would most likely be in great danger.
In the current situation, it would be best for them to leave first. If the opponent sends raptors to catch up, they will look for another opportunity to see if they can inflict some casualties on the opponent.
In the blink of an eye, actions were taken by all parties.
"There's movement!"
When resting in the wild, Li Ce and the others basically kept their ears pressed against the ground and slept very lightly. They would wake up immediately if they heard any movement.
This time is no exception.
"This noise might be the Lizardmen's Dragoons!"
The steps of a warhorse are heavier when running, while the steps of a velociraptor are strangely light when running wildly. The movements produced by the two are quite different.
With more fights, they will naturally be able to analyze some information from these movements.
"So should we leave here now?"
"No."
Hearing this, Li Ce shook his head.
"The lizardmen on the other side have night vision and can see more clearly than us at night. If we run out, it is equivalent to actively exposing our hiding place."
Having said this, Li Ce paused.
"But now that the enemy has already launched their actions, they probably won't be able to hide for long. Since they will be exposed anyway, we might as well use this terrain as cover to launch an ambush."
Under the cover of night, Li Ce quickly expressed his thoughts.
"Sir Silk, I have two questions I hope you can answer."
"Excuse me."
"First question, the main fighting force of your grassland elves should be here already, right?"
The main combat force that Li Ce mentioned refers to the combat force that is fully equipped and whose strength is obviously superior to that of ordinary members, which is equivalent to their regular army soldiers.
Now, in their grassland village, the militiamen who are responsible for patrolling and garrisoning, do you think they have combat power? Of course they have some, but it is very limited.
How could they have any chance to intervene in this battle? Basically, showing up would mean death.
Silk undoubtedly understood the meaning of Li Ce's words and nodded.
"It's all here."
Excluding the four elven knights who were sent back due to injuries, there are now a total of nineteen elven knights, all here.
After getting this answer, Li Ce immediately asked the second question.
"Do you grassland elves still have any means reserved that can defeat the enemy's large army?"
Li Ce, who asked this question, did not wait for Silk to give an answer this time, but expressed his own thoughts first.
"If not, then I plan to fight the Lizard Man to the death the moment the sun rises!"
Li Ce, who said this, naturally had his own thoughts.
The Lizardmen's large army is already there, and they have no chance of winning in a head-on battle. It would be a wiser approach to engage in a showdown like now, disperse the enemy's forces, and then gradually destroy them.
At the same time, considering the status of both sides, their current status is definitely better than that of the Lizardmen!
