Chapter 1259 Saint Laurent's Counterattack
Marshal Adolf made this decision very decisively.
From his point of view, the strength of their Saint Laurent Empire and the Greenskin Royal Family was originally evenly matched. Although the arrival of the Bloody Hand Clan broke this balance, even if they made a misjudgment, they would at most lose some troops. On the contrary, if the judgment was correct, it would be a perfect opportunity to inflict a heavy blow to the Greenskin Royal Family on the opposite side!
In this situation, he couldn't even be said to be gambling, so there was no reason for him to refuse to send troops!
At the border of the Saint Laurent Empire, the fortress gate rose up, and the garrison immediately filed out, forming an offensive at the fastest speed and launching a counterattack against the greenskin army!
The green-skinned emperor remained relatively calm upon receiving the news of the sudden counterattack by the Saint Laurent Empire.
In a long battle, it is normal for the defender to launch a counterattack and relieve internal pressure when they still have the ability to counterattack. The Greenskin Emperor did not think there was any big problem until a large number of King Kong Realm-level combat forces from the Saint Laurent Empire rushed into the battlefield...
"WAAAAGH! We've been exposed. The enemy knows that we have sent a large number of Diamond Realm-level fighters to intercept their reinforcements!"
The green-skinned emperor, who realized this instantly, looked visibly more unhappy.
Under normal circumstances, both sides should have allowed their high-end combat power to check and balance each other and not enter the battlefield.
But now, the Saint Laurent Empire has taken the lead in breaking this situation and sending high-end combat forces to join the battle. Could this be an accident?
Thinking about the enemy reinforcements that were on their way here, the Greenskin Emperor had already sorted out the entire situation in his mind.
In the current situation, he only has three Vajra Realm-level fighters left.
If the Saint Laurent Empire had only sent out three or fewer high-end combat forces to test him, he would have been able to handle it, but this time the other side had sent out all its high-end combat forces, which directly put an end to the Greenskin Emperor's plan.
In this situation, if he sent out the three Vajra Realm fighters at hand to fight, they would most likely never return.
Rather than taking this risk, it is better to avoid fighting.
If we operate appropriately during this period, the worst that will happen is the loss of some troops.
As long as the high-end combat power can be guaranteed, the Greenskin Emperor can completely accept the loss of some low-level troops.
To the greenskin emperor, this was an exchange.
The loss of the lower-level troops here is in exchange for time for them to mobilize their combat forces to completely destroy the enemy's reinforcements.
When the interception troops he sent out complete their mission and return, it will be time for him to gather his forces and launch a general attack on the Saint Laurent Empire! As for the failure of the interception...
He had never thought of the possibility.
He arranged the interception force according to the information provided by Blood Hand King and the combat power of the Blood Hand Clan, and he had seven Vajra Realm-level fighters to ensure that the mission was foolproof.
How could this mess things up? There was no news coming back from the interception troops, and the green-skinned emperor was not worried at all.
From his point of view, there was basically no possibility of anything going wrong there.
In comparison, the current battle requires him to put in more energy.
Although he did not plan to send out Vajra Realm-level combat forces to fight back, it did not mean that he planned to completely give up resistance and allow the Vajra Realm powerhouses of the Saint Roland Empire to massacre his troops!
If he ignores this completely, he will lose thousands of troops after a few rounds.
Once the gap in military strength becomes too large, they will not be able to fight the battle even if they have an advantage in high-end combat power.
Taking this into consideration, the best solution for them at this stage is to retreat.
While fighting and retreating all the way to reduce troop losses, they were also able to lure the Saint Laurent Empire's troops out of the border fortresses and move the battlefield to a more peripheral location, paving the way for subsequent interception and counterattacks after the troops returned.
Compared to a siege battle, this is obviously easier to fight.
At the same time, on the wall of the border fortress...
"Marshal! The greenskin army did not send out strong men in the Vajra Realm to fight back, and the main force began to retreat! Should we continue the pursuit?"
Marshal Adolf, who confirmed this situation, had a glimmer of joy in his eyes and understood everything in his heart.
"Continue the pursuit and increase the intensity of the attack! Try to reduce the enemy's forces as much as possible in the shortest possible time!"
Although the opponent did not send out strong men in the Vajra Realm to fight back, they could still create an advantage for themselves by reducing the strength of the greenskin army.
By then, as long as their military advantage is great enough, it is not impossible for them to consume a Vajra Realm expert to death!
With this idea in mind and following the orders of Marshal Adolf, the garrison of the Saint Laurent Empire launched this wave of attacks without any hesitation. It was fast and fierce.
After several rounds, the huge casualties made the Greenskin Emperor look unhappy.
He was indeed mentally prepared for this, but he still couldn't hide his bad mood. After all, the greenskins were not that cunning.
The green-skinned emperor gloomily ordered the main force to continue fighting and retreating.
He was sure that the Saint Laurent Empire's offensive intensity could not be maintained forever, and the key still lay in the Vajra Realm-level combat power on the opposite side.
Even though it seems like killing ordinary green-skinned soldiers is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables for them now, there will still be some losses.
In this confrontation, the Saint Laurent Empire must guard against the Vajra Realm powerhouses on their side. To do this, they must preserve the status of their own Vajra Realm powerhouses and not let them consume too much energy.
Simply put, although the attacks of those powerful Vajra Realm warriors on the opposite side are fierce now, they will soon restrain themselves after consuming a certain amount of energy.
As long as the powerful Vajra Realm warrior on the opposite side restrains his offensive and both sides focus completely on the confrontation between the large forces in their hands, the Greenskin Emperor will have the confidence to withstand it!
During this period, on the side of the Saint Laurent Empire, in response to the greenskins' actions, Marshal Adolf naturally knew what the greenskin emperor was thinking.
But he was not afraid. The reinforcements had already explained the whole situation to him, as well as their tactical ideas. Under this premise, they still had the upper hand, so there was no reason not to cooperate well with the reinforcements over a long distance.
Unlike most forces that have long been suppressed by the greenskins, the Saint Laurent Empire and the greenskin royal family have always been evenly matched. After so many years of fighting, both sides have won and lost.
As a result, this time, due to the arrival of the Blood Hand Clan, they were at a disadvantage in terms of both manpower and high-end combat power. The Saint Laurent soldiers, who had been suppressed for a long time, were full of anger. Now that they had the opportunity to counterattack, they all tried their best to beat the greenskins to death!
