Night gradually fell, and Ajiket sat steadily in the tent. On his left was the liaison officer, and on his right were a group of generals and deputy generals who were anxiously waiting.
Many support troops have already reported their safety along with the assisted defense troops.
The combat power of Rose's elite soldiers was beyond their imagination. They had to put in a lot of effort to barely defeat about ten of them.
In order to balance the efficiency of protecting the large army and annihilating the orcs, many of Rose's elite soldiers were dispersed among the troops.
This gave the elite troops of Wansheng Kingdom an opportunity.
However, they could not contain individual Rose elites like the elite troops led by Yang Yu, to prevent them from gathering together and bursting out with super power.
Many troops suffered setbacks as a result, and after struggling hard, they barely won the victory.
Some troops were poorly defended and fell into a disadvantage. They could only retreat back to the barracks with as many people as they could.
Some troops were crushed by the Rose Empire due to problems with numbers or poor coordination.
In general, the method of sending only elite troops to fight resulted in more victories than defeats, and a large number of Rose soldiers and Rose elites were captured. The plan to weaken the combat capability of the Rose Empire was barely successful.
only
An unfortunate piece of news was finally passed back to the military camp. A defensive force was attacked by a powerful team of Rose's elite soldiers. In the end, only about sixty people were left and fled back to the military camp in a panic. The defensive force they went to support was also surrounded by the Rose Empire and suffered heavy losses.
After hearing the news, Bingquan and Marco became restless. If Rose's elite troops were transferred to other places, it would likely cause even greater losses. They should send more troops for support.
This proposal was rejected by Akiket.
Even if the Wansheng soldiers who were under attack contacted us now, by the time their support troops arrived, their troops would have been destroyed.
The troops on the battlefield are not far apart, but they each have their own enemies to deal with.
The rules originally formulated were that the troops that were fighting more easily would contact other nearby troops, and if the troops were too tired, they would just come back.
Many troops came back exhausted and had no time to worry about other troops.
After a while, a call suddenly came from the crystal ball. General Bingquan and General Marco immediately became nervous. Even General Yi Tianwen, who was smiling and optimistic, was worried. Only Ajiket calmly ordered the liaison officer to connect the call.
However, unlike what they imagined, the face that appeared on the screen was not that of any officer, but a blonde elf with half of her face covered by bangs.
The liaison officer already knew that the call was not from the front line, and while he was hesitant, Ajiket let him connect the call.
"General Akiket.
It's an honor to meet you. My name is Dorena, and I'm the elf assigned by Mindarak to be in charge of liaison.
This was the first time we met like this. I was one of the instructors in the multi-racial training camp.
The teaching of various sub-human races has been basically completed. We have instilled in them the cruelty and significance of this war. Many special sub-human races are already able to fight for the Wansheng Kingdom, such as the Silver Fang Clan, the Striped Gecko Clan, the Tree Frog Clan, etc.
This year we will have more people joining the fight, and we will be able to build our own intelligence network like humans.
General Ajiket, may I ask, what is the situation over there
Your Majesty and Prime Minister Mindarak want to test the efficiency of transmitting information."
After hearing Dorena's voice, Ajiket pondered for a while, and finally passed the true information to Dorena.
Dorena had no expression on her face.
"It's worse than I imagined. Although I've heard a lot about it and have prepared myself mentally, it's still hard to accept when it really happens.
But don't worry.
I think, even if we fail to capture Benliang City in the end, we will still have a chance.
In addition to the race sent to your side, a more powerful race will join you after the spring. As long as you don't enter some complex terrain and just stay on the open grassland, you can fully utilize their mobility.
Although it is difficult for them to attack the city, it can still be done as long as we make good use of them and preserve most of the existing achievements.
Since their numbers are small, I hope that General Ajiket will be able to lead and command the troops personally."
"I understand. I will personally direct it." Ajikte nodded and asked, "Anything else?"
"There is one more thing. Today should be the day they meet up with you. Prime Minister Mingdarak said that you should treat them well. They are also one of the founding races of Wansheng Country. The founding emperor of this country came up with many brilliant ideas with them."
"General Potato, the communication line of the main force is busy. Do you want to change to another line?"
Bai Jin showed the crystal ball in her hand to Yang Yu, but Yang Yu had never encountered a busy line situation before, and he felt that the picture above was no different from before.
"There's no need to contact them anymore. We're almost at the camp, and it's going to be night soon. They'll be able to sense our approach."
As he walked, Lotkar's ears turned, as if he caught a strange sound, and he raised his head behind him.
Looking back, Yang Yu found that other orcs also made the same action as Lothkar, looking up at the dark sky.
Slowly raising his head, Yang Yu's ears also caught the sound of flapping wings.
At this moment, he saw some small black dots in the distant sky flying towards them.
"So it was them?"
Bai Jin and Iyas looked at Yang Yu with confusion, and Yang Yu calmed down and explained:
“There are not many species that can fly in the air, and most harpies gather on the islands of the Ocean Principality.
The ones that can be seen in Wansheng Country can barely be considered orcs, and they appear at this time.
Only the Chiroptera, or bat orcs."
"correct."
Lotkar said affirmatively,
“I didn’t expect them to come. I have heard of the name of the Chiroptera tribe.
In the past, the Chiroptera were widespread and only came out to hunt at night.
My parents also taught me how to distinguish the sounds of Chiroptera hunting...
only"
"It's just that at this point in time, in this cold winter, they should be hiding in the caves and hibernating."
The black shadow slowly approached. Even though it was pitch black, Yang Yu could still confirm through the panel that the person coming was from the Chiroptera tribe.
These Chiropterans used echolocation to confirm that there were orcs below them, slowed down their flying speed, and landed steadily on the ground.
Their hands are like those of real bats, with five fingers supporting thin leather wings connected to the flanks, and a pair of huge ears folded forward to maximize the collection of reflected ultrasonic waves.
The Chiropterans looked around, shaking their huge ears, searching for something, and finally walked towards Yang Yu in unison.
