"Listen carefully! Learn carefully!"
Before officially entering the vicinity of Qinghe Volcano, Yang Yu conducted special training for his troops in the mountains not far away.
After tapping the blackboard, Yang Yu used his soul painting skills to draw a bird's-eye view of the Qinghe volcano and its surroundings on the blackboard.
“The Qinghe volcano is a dormant volcano that has not erupted for many years.
Because it spread a lot of volcanic ash in the past, the vegetation there is dense.
Various ethnic groups settled here in the form of small tribes, and there were only a handful of large cities.
But being few in number doesn’t mean it’s unimportant.
Many of the major cities are located in strategic locations and are easy to defend but difficult to attack due to the terrain.
Our goal is not to target those big cities from the beginning and try to get rich overnight.
Instead, we should do the opposite and surround the cities with the countryside.”
Yang Yu drew out the strongholds occupied by humans on the blackboard.
“According to our understanding, although the individual combat capability of humans of the same level is not as good as that of orcs, as long as they unite, we will have no way to resist their attack.
In this case, we should fully utilize the advantages of the orcs.
You have a keen sense of hearing and a keen sense of smell.
In most cases, orcs discover humans first.
When we fight humans, we must fight small annihilation battles, accumulate small victories into big ones, and through countless battles, we will demoralize the enemy and gradually expand our advantage.”
Yang Yu wrote and drew on the blackboard, trying to depict the guerrilla warfare in his mind as best as possible.
This is a world of swords and magic. In Yang Yu's world, due to the existence of hot weapons, one strike can often be fatal, making guerrilla warfare very convenient.
But in this world, since everyone has levels and different attributes, it is difficult to kill them with one blow.
Therefore, if you want to carry out guerrilla warfare, there are many things you need to pay attention to.
Like when to flee and when to fight.
As long as we can figure out this problem, the loss of soldiers can be reduced to the next level.
In order to train the soldiers, Yang Yu specially picked out some soldiers from the team who looked strong but were actually weak, as well as some soldiers who looked mediocre but were actually strong. Using them as examples, he conducted repeated teaching in many aspects on what to pay attention to on the battlefield.
Let the soldiers present know when to fight and when to retreat in time to seek support, and then use the majority to bully the minority.
In this way, Yang Yu spent another five or six days just on teaching and drills.
However, in order for all soldiers to understand this tactic more thoroughly, an actual battle is indeed needed.
The brief spring truce is over.
The Rose soldiers of the Rose Empire stationed at the Qinghe Volcano have also started to move. This year, they will use the Qinghe Volcano as a base to further infiltrate Wansheng Kingdom and force Wansheng Kingdom to surrender quickly.
A general named Luo Ze named Qiuyue, along a small path, quickly attacked Qingyu City, an important city of Wansheng Kingdom, which was a city outside the Qinghe volcanic forest.
After humans captured the Qinghe Volcano, a large number of orcs retreated there with the intention of launching a counterattack.
It is difficult to capture that place, but in other words, as long as it can be captured, the empire will be able to conquer Wansheng Kingdom sooner and trample it under its feet.
Leading the troops through the jungle, suddenly, several sharp ice arrows streaked through the sky and hit the end of the army with a "crackling" sound.
Accompanied by screams, Qiuyue immediately organized the troops to be on alert at the spot.
"Don't panic! You are well-trained Rose troops, be prepared to meet the enemy."
Under Qiuyue's command, Rose's soldiers quickly formed a formation to defend against the enemy. However, after an hour or two, the expected orc troops did not attack.
Even if a magician cast surveillance magic into the air, no orcs could be seen.
"what happened?"
Noticing something unusual, Qiuyue frowned and kept thinking of countermeasures in his mind. Finally, he decided to continue leading his troops forward.
However, before Qiuyue could lead his troops to take a few steps, suddenly, another wave of magic came towards him.
This time his troops were prepared, but still suffered several casualties.
Judging from the intensity of the enemy's attack, the number of their soldiers should not be large. It should be that the orc scouts discovered their whereabouts and wanted to disrupt their march.
Qiuyue acted decisively and sent a small and reliable team to investigate deep into the jungle.
But an hour later, no one in his unit was able to contact that team.
Qiuyue swallowed. This time, an attack occurred on the other side of the army. Fortunately, Magician Rose reacted in time and no major casualties were caused.
However, the next moment, countless arrows appeared on the other side of the team, and several Rose soldiers fell down instantly.
The mission was not accomplished yet, but they lost so many men. This would be unbearable for any officer in Rose.
This time, Qiuyue looked around again and again, and finally, he saw several figures moving quickly in the jungle.
"Pass on my order. Separate and pursue them. I want to let those damned orcs see how powerful humans are. After we catch them, if they don't surrender, kill them without mercy."
After receiving Qiuyue's order, several centurions immediately led their troops to pursue in all directions.
However, not long after, these troops all disappeared without a trace.
The surroundings were eerily quiet. Qiuyue, who stayed where she was, wiped the sweat from her forehead and kept asking people to try to make contact, but she still couldn't get in touch with any of the teams that had been sent out.
Suddenly, a crow's cry was heard from deep in the forest, scaring Qiuyue so much that she almost lost her grip on the reins.
At this moment, a new magic attack came towards them.
This attack was weaker than the last one, and the troops sent out were effective. But why is there no response
Seeing some moving figures again, Qiuyue couldn't bear it anymore.
"Keep splitting up! I want to see what the orcs are up to! Find the one who dares to attack us and hang him up and beat him!"
The troops brought by Qiuyue were instantly divided into several parts and pursued in different directions.
Before they had gone far, the troops that had just been separated were attacked from all directions again. This time they could see clearer human figures moving in the jungle.
In order to deal with them separately, Qiuyue's troops divided themselves up again and again, and finally got lost in the jungle.
"Damn it! Damn it! Where on earth have they gone? They are just like a bunch of rats!"
Qiuyue turned his horse around and looked at the less than two hundred soldiers behind him. He realized that he might have fallen into a trap and wanted to gather the soldiers again. However, the horse he was riding stepped into a trap and flipped to the right.
At this moment, a red figure suddenly appeared from a bush and crashed into Qiuyue's few remaining troops.
The red light stopped in front of Qiuyue, and Qiuyue finally saw that it was a man wearing strange clothes and a mask. An orange light gathered on his sword blade.
"[Double-Sided Slash]"
Qiuyue hurriedly drew his sword, but because he was too nervous, he failed to draw the sword in the first place, and he was instantly cut off his horse.
At this moment, several ice arrows came rushing over and hit his back, nailing him to the tree.
