Few other races know about the ratmen's talent for ambush. They often achieve excellent results by relying on ambush tactics.
I didn't expect the undead to know the ratmen's ambush tactics.
It was a bad idea.
There is no need to fight this battle.
Lost.
"retreat."
The old commander gave the order to retreat without hesitation.
He had to delay the undead's advance as much as possible and not let the army be lost here.
If all his noble private soldiers died here, the undead would be able to enter the ratman territory unimpeded, and no army would be able to harm them.
The strategy of relying on ambush tactics to kill a large number of casualties in the decisive frontal battle and relying on ambush tactics to kill high-level troops has been declared a failure.
The old commander gave the order very promptly.
The ratmen had a special retreat plan, with a special rearguard unit, and the other ratmen warriors retreated to the rear in an orderly manner.
The Skeleton Knights and the Undead chased for a while, and then returned to the camp at Li Ziyu's call.
"The ratmen on the opposite side are very decisive." Looking at the ratman army retreating far away, Zhang Peng said to Li Ziyu.
"Well, I don't know what they are going to do next. I don't like cunning opponents." Li Ziyu said with a sigh.
In the situation just now, if the other party had issued the retreat order later, he would have had the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the rat army.
The opponent was too decisive. The skeleton knights under his command had just arrived at the opponent's camp when the opponent began to retreat without any hesitation.
They even had a rear guard team specifically designed to block the insect men and skeleton knights, slowing down the pursuit.
In this battle, the Zerg suffered heavy losses, but achieved little results.
Although some ratmen were annihilated, the enemy's army remained intact and could cause him trouble.
This is not good news.
"They are retreating. Should we send knights to chase them?" Zhang Peng looked at the retreating ratmen through the Eyes of the Undead and suggested to Li Ziyu.
"No, that ratman commander is not a fool. Even if I send out knights, the other side must be prepared. There is no need to sacrifice the knights." Li Ziyu thought about it for a while and gave up the idea.
The rat people retreated in a very orderly manner. If we send people to chase them, who knows if they have any strange ambushes.
This time he was lucky, as he knew in advance that the ratmen had the ability to ambush. If he hadn't known, he might have suffered a great loss.
What we need to do now is to capture the city-state of Tekel as soon as possible, and then advance step by step towards the ratman territory, gradually eroding the ratman city-state.
An army of hundreds of thousands of ratmen is really nothing compared to an army of tens of millions of undead.
The undead army returned and attacked the city-state of Takker again.
…
Thakur fell.
The so-called fortress, one of the oldest city-states, could not stop the undead. Their walls could not be defended and were conquered by the undead.
The news spread among the ratmen, causing panic.
Even an aristocrat who lives a life of luxury and enjoyment every day will wake up from his dream.
They finally realized that the rat people were in trouble.
The ratmen finally lost their former peace and began to become restless.
Every city-state was talking about the undead, and they could hardly believe their ears.
"We should leave rat-man territory!"
"No, no, no, we must trust our soldiers."
"I don't believe it! Haven't you heard that Thakur has fallen?"
"I heard that the undead are very cruel. All the people in Takker were slaughtered, and now there are only undead there."
"Damn it! I told you we shouldn't let the undead enter our territory."
"The undead should have been eliminated long ago!"
…
Street corners, bars and restaurants.
Everywhere one could hear people discussing the fall of Takl.
This had a huge impact on them.
They didn't feel anything when the city-state of Ilmah was captured, nor did they feel anything when several other city-states were captured.
They felt that the war was far away from them, and they did not believe that the undead could continue to advance.
The Rat Man has faced many dangers, but he always wins!
But Thakur is different.
That is a city-state famous for its defense!
If even Takor can’t stop the undead, how can other city-states resist?
