Chapter 1334: Change of Situation (Part 2)
This time, the plan could not keep up with the changes, but at the same time, Marshal Adolf showed a trace of solemnity on his face.
The Greenskin Army has never had high tactical proficiency. After the death of the Greenskin Emperor, Marshal Adolf originally thought that the Greenskin Army would fall into civil strife and become a mess.
But now it seems that this matter is obviously not that simple.
[Did the two greenskin kings from the Blood Hand Clan or the Bloodthirsty Clan reintegrate the greenskin troops? ]
Marshal Adolf did not show any hesitation about this issue.
For him now, whether it is the Bloody Hand King or the Bloodthirsty King, now their coalition has two top powers, Saint Laurent I and Emperor Zhou, in charge. The only suspense in the next battle is how long the greenskins can struggle under their mopping-up operations.
Although this trend is somewhat overconfident, but it is also because of this that Marshal Adolf's mentality is so stable at this moment, and the collapse of the vanguard troops did not have much impact on him.
At this time, Marshal Adolf believed that as long as their large coalition forces arrived, any problem would be solved.
The action of sending out the vanguard troops is just to enable them to achieve this goal faster.
With this as a premise, the actions of the greenskins seemed to him to be nothing more than a last-ditch struggle.
In fact, Li Ce basically agreed with Marshal Adolf's views and arrangements.
The decisive victory or defeat had already been decided on the previous battlefield. Since then, the war between the coalition forces and the greenskins has officially entered its final stage.
However, there are also things to do in the closing stage.
At this time, as commanders, they should consider how to win the greatest victory at the lowest cost.
Of course, the person who needs to consider this issue mainly at this moment is Marshal Adolf, who holds the main force.
After all, when the fight really starts, Saint Laurent’s main force will definitely be at the front.
The reinforcement troops, including those from their Great Zhou, were only there to provide cover and support on the flank battlefield.
Normally speaking, the pressure you need to bear is not that great.
Marshal Adolf knew very well what Li Ce and the others were thinking.
But he didn't care. The main force didn't have much of a problem. In his opinion, what was more important was that Emperor Zhou was willing to help. In this operation, the value that Emperor Zhou could provide alone could even exceed that of an entire support army! Under this premise, it would be even better if the support army could also play a role in diversion on the flank.
For the large army that was continuing to advance, this was just a small episode and did not have any impact on their advance.
The Giant Eagle Knights who received the order ran to pass the message as quickly as possible. As an important link connecting various troops and also an important aerial reconnaissance unit, they were basically busy and could be said to be one of the busiest troops at this stage.
During this period, the results of the battle between the coalition vanguard and the goblin wolf cavalry were delivered to Bloody Hand at the fastest speed.
Bloody Hand never thought that he could directly wipe out all the Centaur cavalry on the opposite side. If they could destroy them all so easily, they wouldn't have to fight for so long. Being able to force the enemy to flee in all directions could be considered a result.
At least for the time being they don't have to worry about such a force posing a threat to their large forces at any time.
As his thoughts raced, Blood Hand's mind opened up quickly, and orders were issued one after another.
On a new day, the air force responsible for monitoring the every move of the greenskin army opened their eyes and found that the greenskin army that was originally under their noses had completely disappeared. This situation shocked the leading captain, who then reacted quickly.
"They must have escaped in the dark last night!"
They had experienced something similar before, outside the border of the Saint Laurent Empire.
Just like the soldiers of the air force had this experience, could the Bloody King forget that there were air forces inside the reinforcements? Back then, when they were chasing the reinforcements outside, the air force of the reinforcements gave them a hard time!
With the Centaur Cavalry already catching up with them, the speed of the air force will only be faster than that of the Centaur troops, and the whereabouts of their large force is likely to have been exposed.
This is very disadvantageous for them.
This means that their every move will be under the surveillance of the other party.
The best way to get out of this situation is to move in the dark.
Because the enemy's air forces, like the ground forces, do not have night vision.
Even during the day, air forces flying at high altitudes can only monitor forces of a certain size. It is difficult for them to notice the actions of individual soldiers or even squads because the targets are too small.
Not to mention the fact that after nightfall, the wilderness is pitch black.
"You go back and report the situation, and the others will follow me to look for them!"
After all, this was something that had happened before, and now it was happening again, the experienced team leader was able to remain calm, quickly gave orders, and arranged the whole thing in the blink of an eye.
Li Ce and his team quickly received the intelligence. After understanding the situation, Li Ce's face darkened slightly...
"The large greenskin force realized they were being spotted and watched by the air forces, and left their original position in the dark last night."
Li Ce paused.
"Similar things have happened before. If nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely not carry out operations during the day. All operations will be transferred to the night."
Having said that, Li Ce quickly added another sentence.
"That is to say, the battle will most likely shift to nighttime."
At this moment, Marshal Adolf next to him also frowned slightly.
They are indeed confident of victory now, but once the greenskin army switches to nighttime combat, considering the visibility problem and the wild environment, it can be said that many aspects are unfavorable to them.
Even though at the high-end combat power level, they can win stably with the advantages brought by Saint Laurent I and Emperor Zhou, but at the troop level, they will probably have to pay a considerable price.
From a power's perspective, this is obviously not what he wants to see at this stage when the greatest results should be achieved with the least casualties.
At that moment, Marshal Adolf even wanted to turn around and retreat to Fort Saint Laurent.
But he quickly abandoned the idea.
They withdrew to the Saint Laurent Fortress. According to the current situation of the greenskin army, they would definitely not attack again. This move was equivalent to letting the tiger go back to the mountain and increasing the variables, which was obviously not what he wanted to see.
From Marshal Adolf's perspective, his attitude towards the greenskins has always been to pay some price to completely wipe out the greenskins and prevent future troubles!
