The central troops of Wansheng Kingdom are roaming on the plains, and the Rose Empire has sent soldiers to encircle and suppress them. The two sides are bound to engage in hand-to-hand combat, competing in strength and team ability.
In hand-to-hand combat, coordination between different arms is very important. Heavy cavalry and heavily armored knights are responsible for breaking through the lines, light cavalry are responsible for flank attacks, and magicians and archers are responsible for providing long-range firepower.
But more importantly, it is the suppression of numbers.
If one side has a numerical advantage over the other side, the suppressed side will be almost defenseless.
The Rose Empire used this to target the Wansheng Kingdom.
After the Wansheng Kingdom's Central Recapture Army broke through the encirclement, the Rose Empire consciously commanded the elite troops in ambush to further break up the already broken Central Recapture Army.
Even though the weather was cold and the soldiers had difficulty moving, as long as they formed a square formation on the plains and put numerical pressure on the fragmented Central Recapture Army, relying on their excellent group combat capabilities, the Rose Empire had enough confidence to completely defeat Wansheng's Central Recapture Army.
An elf appeared riding a huge silver wolf, and the Rose Extermination Army's No. 024 Unit, which was responsible for encircling and suppressing the Wansheng Kingdom's recapture army, smelled the scent of merit.
They knew about the existence of the Silver Fang Clan.
The defenders of Benliang City should have won a great victory, but some deviations occurred because of the Silver Fang Clan who could transform into giant wolves.
This silver wolf should be out exploring. If we walk a short distance, we should be able to find the team it is in and capture them all.
Some people in the Rose Extermination Army's No. 024 Unit also raised objections, saying how could those fleeing troops appear here so early, and whether they were the rescue troops from the Long Boots area. They should send out scouts to investigate the situation.
The leading officer thought for a while and felt that unless the reinforcements from the Long Boots area had wings, they would not be able to arrive so quickly.
Moreover, if the scouts were sent out alone, they would most likely alert the orcs with their sensitive hearing and be killed by them.
Although an attack by the entire army would alarm them, it would also put pressure on them, forcing them to flee for their lives, running around in exhaustion, and finally escaping into the area under the responsibility of another force and falling into the trap.
Si Ding, the leading officer commanded the troops to rush towards the direction where the silver wolf disappeared.
What they didn't know was that there were already 30,000 burly men ahead of them, waiting for their little lambs of only 7,000 people to come to them.
Yang Yu also predicted that if the other party chased them, they would definitely mistake them for roving soldiers.
Taking advantage of the fact that humans' hearing and sense of smell are far inferior to those of orcs, just like an anglerfish using the small light on its head to fish, Yang Yu led the soldiers of the Rose Empire into the encirclement of the orcs.
By the time Rose's soldiers realized that something was wrong and wanted to retreat urgently, it was too late.
After a brief resistance, the extermination force surrendered obediently, shouted surrender, and was surrounded by the orcs in three layers.
"If you don't want to suffer, tell me your plan." Dongmu snapped his fingers, making a crackling sound.
"You can't do this to us. Our troops have surrendered. What you are doing is contrary to the conditions for treating prisoners well."
Just like before, these Rose soldiers used the rules set by the dragon as a shield.
"Well, it's the rules set by the dragon again. It's really troublesome." Yang Yu scratched his head.
"Well - don't be so dejected. With the dragon's rules, more people can survive this war."
Dongmu folded his arms, but his words were not so easy.
"However, they said so. I'm afraid they are encircling the central troops and trying to force them to surrender.
However, the central troops chose to fight to the death. Or rather, they had to fight to the death.
After all, if they really surrender, not to mention taking back the plains, it is not impossible that Wansheng Kingdom will be destroyed. "
The troops to launch the winter offensive did not emerge out of thin air. In addition to the original troops in Cerro Vomen, many were drawn from other places.
Once the offensive is planned in the spring, many units will return to their respective areas of responsibility to avoid the loss of large tracts of land as the offensive in those areas becomes more fierce after the winter.
The situation is similar for the Rose Empire, but they have a strong foundation, and with the help of the orc captives obtained during the encirclement and suppression, they can gradually expand their advantages.
"Speaking of rules, I remember that the victor has the right to take spoils from the loser."
"Forget it. It's not in the rules to strip them of their clothes and cause their death."
Dongmu thought Yang Yu had a bold idea and hurriedly stopped him. Yang Yu just smiled.
"I didn't ask for the clothes inside. Their armor is really good. By the way, when you returned the soldiers, did you return the armor as well?" Yang Yu asked.
"Well." Dongmu thought about it and said with certainty: "After all, when they returned our soldiers, they also returned the armor, saying that it was inhumane to take armor from other countries.
Of course, if our soldiers have valuable spoils of war, they will still be taken away by them.
Tudou Dutong, you should also be careful. I found that you still have a lot of good things on you. You must not fall into their hands. "
"I know. But if you calculate it this way, you've lost a lot."
Yang Yu sighed. On the one hand, he was lamenting the Rose Empire's careful calculation and shrewdness; on the other hand, he was lamenting that Wansheng Kingdom was a bit straightforward, and was manipulated by the Rose Empire using various rules and routines, and using the so-called "morality" to squeeze more benefits.
We can only blame others, it's that Wansheng Kingdom lived too peacefully and the Luoze Empire changed its attitude faster than turning the pages of a book, everything happened too suddenly.
Before Wansheng Kingdom was ready, the Rose Empire came in and played Wansheng Kingdom in its hands.
A thousand-mile long dam can be destroyed by a single ant hole.
The Luoze Empire knew from the beginning that it could not swallow Wansheng Kingdom in one bite, so it decided to tear Wansheng Kingdom apart like an ant until it was riddled with holes.
However, Wansheng State is more resilient than imagined.
"Did you lose money? I don't really understand the situation at the negotiation table. Maybe other people in Wansheng Country also thought of what you thought of. But they compromised under some pressure.
If I can come back alive this time, I will write you a letter of recommendation.
Let you understand.
Maybe you can gain more initiative for us in the negotiations."
"General, don't just casually set a flag that might never come back."
"Flag? You're talking about something I don't understand again. You're quite interesting. I'd like to sit down, have a drink, and continue chatting with you later.
Now, since we haven't obtained any meaningful information, let's take away all the valuables or precious things on them first.
The crystal ball used for communication is of utmost importance and must be confiscated."
"Remember to take off your armor too."
