Chapter 1245 A Small Interlude
The senses of the Vajra Realm warriors are very sharp, which makes them trust their intuition very much in many cases.
At that time, he really felt that he was being watched by others.
Even though nothing was discovered in the end, it doesn't mean that the spying didn't exist. It's very likely that the other party used some means that he didn't know about.
Under this premise, combined with the fact that the opposing large force suddenly stopped advancing and rested on the spot, it was difficult for Blood Hand King not to think too much.
At this moment, hearing the call from Blood Hand King, the messenger looked at the more burly green-skinned general standing next to him with an embarrassed look on his face.
Obviously, when launching a joint operation with the Greenskin Royal Family's troops, even the Bloody Hand Clan headed by King Bloody Hand have to cooperate with the Greenskin Royal Family's troops instead of launching operations on their own.
"WAAAAGH!"
A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across the greenskin general's face at Blood Hand King's self-assertion.
"Your Majesty's order is for us to ambush the enemy here. If your unauthorized actions lead to our early exposure and the operation fails, you will be held responsible for it!"
At this moment, even the Goblin Wolf Cavalry who were further ahead were still about three kilometers away from the coalition forces. They were ambushing in the woods in the rear, so the distance was naturally even farther.
Once they take the initiative to attack and expose their whereabouts, the enemy will most likely retreat and flee immediately, and they will not be able to catch up with them all at once at this distance.
The greenskin general obviously had no idea what the Bloody King had done before, so from his point of view, there was nothing wrong with his idea.
The greenskin general's words made Blood Hand King's face freeze.
Since the previous battle with the Smith Kingdom, their Blood Hand Clan lost a large number of soldiers and two Vajra Realm warriors, which also seriously damaged their vitality. This also made him act more restrained. In the end, he just uttered one sentence...
"But if the best opportunity is missed because of your decision, will you also be responsible?"
After saying that, Blood Hand King didn't want to talk to him any more, so he just walked to the side, sat down against a big tree, closed his eyes and rested, leaving the greenskin general there with a gloomy expression.
If you think about it carefully, Blood Hand King's speculation is not completely impossible.
But at this juncture, if he changed his mind and ordered an attack, wouldn't that be the same as admitting that he was wrong? Thinking of this, the green-skinned general immediately gave up his idea and prepared to continue the ambush.
At the same time, on the coalition position, Li Ce was unaware of such a small incident. According to the plan, he let the soldiers rest for two hours. After they had a comfortable meal, there was nothing to show, so he gave an order and the large force began to retreat as quickly as possible.
The Goblin Wolf Cavalry were lying in ambush three kilometers away. Even with such a large movement, it would take some time for them to discover it and understand the specific situation, not to mention that they also needed to take the news to the woods and inform their large troops.
"WAAAAGH!"
The greenskin general who confirmed the news cursed on the spot, his face looked ugly, and he subconsciously glanced at the Blood Hand King who was resting under a big tree.
With the keen senses of a Vajra Realm warrior, Blood Hand King naturally heard everything reported clearly.
He had no intention of taking the opportunity to ridicule the greenskin general. He just stood up expressionlessly and walked outside.
This action made the greenskin general feel even more mocked, and an unconcealable rage began to burn in his chest.
However, he also knew that this wave was indeed predicted by the Blood Hand King. Even if he was angry, he couldn't vent it on the other party. In the end, he could only roar...
"Send a signal and have the Goblin Wolf Cavalry catch up and hold them back! The main force begins the pursuit!!"
After the signal was sent, the Goblin Wolf Cavalrymen confirmed the signal and immediately rushed out to pursue the retreating coalition forces.
The movements of the greenskins were basically under the high-altitude surveillance of the Giant Eagle Knight, and every move was reported to Li Ce in a timely manner.
"How about the Goblin Wolf Cavalry's pursuit formation?"
"Disperse! Split the large force into two groups and approach from the outer wings. Each group's positions should be very dispersed!"
After further confirming the situation, Li Ce's face darkened slightly.
Obviously, the opponent had learned lessons from the previous battle with them.
If the opponents are densely packed, they can also use targeted means to cause large-scale casualties in one wave and quickly eliminate the subsequent threats that the Goblin Wolf Cavalry can bring to them.
But once they adopt a dispersed stance, it will be troublesome.
From the perspective of the cavalry, once the cavalry units disperse their formation, they will no longer be able to launch a group charge.
But Goblin Wolf Cavalry are not regular cavalry. Their positioning is not on the front battlefield. Instead, they are similar to Dragoons, focusing on roaming around the flanks and harvesting.
The evacuation formation will have an impact, which will directly lead to a decrease in their threat and killing efficiency, but at this moment, the purpose of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry is obviously not to kill them, but to slow down their movement efficiency and wait for the arrival of the large force in the rear.
Under this premise, the opponent's method of dispersing the two wings to launch operations was obviously to prepare for a pincer attack or outflanking of their large force at any time. An invisible net had been unfolded at this moment.
"Gather the cavalry, we will take the initiative to attack! The Warrior Women and the Smith Republic will each lead one of the cavalry."
Compared to waiting for the Goblin Wolf Cavalry on the opposite side to catch up before taking action, Li Ce is undoubtedly more inclined to intercept them directly halfway.
As soon as these words were spoken, General Brett from the female warrior tribe, after understanding the situation, immediately mobilized troops without saying a word.
On the other hand, on the Smith Republic side, Fisher obviously hesitated.
I have something to say, but I don't know how to start.
After all, in his opinion, due to the nature of the troops, it is difficult for conventional cavalry to engage in combat with goblin wolf cavalry under normal circumstances.
Under this premise, the cavalry itself is an elite force, so Fisher is not willing to bear this unnecessary loss.
In comparison, Peter was much more calm. He had very few cavalrymen under his command, so he had nothing to do with this wave.
Li Ce glanced around, saw Fisher's concerns, and said bluntly...
"You don't need to defeat the Goblin Wolf Cavalry. You just need to disrupt and delay them. The purpose is to prevent them from catching up so quickly and affecting the retreat speed of our main force."
Almost at the same time when Li Ce said this, the shouting of General Brett was heard from afar, and a large number of female warrior cavalrymen rode out on war horses at the fastest speed.
After seeing this scene and then turning back to meet Li Ce's calm gaze, Fei She knew in his heart that it was impossible for him to just sit back and reap the fruits of others' labor, so he simply patted his chest in a show of heroic spirit.
"It's a piece of cake! Leave it to me!"
