After discussing with Chirom, Yang Yu divided the team into two parts.
Iyas and He Meng are in a group and are responsible for following Chirom's orders.
Iyas knows how to remove the enchantment and is one of the key figures in the plan.
In order to prevent herself from being charmed, Iyas cast a layer of dispel magic on herself that would refresh her status every once in a while.
This dispel spell also has an effect where if you want to remove it, you will be forced to refresh your own status.
Although it still cannot eliminate the charm, it can prevent the charm effect from lasting on the body.
After dividing into groups, Yang Yu repeatedly reminded Iyas and He Meng to stay in crowded places as much as possible and not to be too far away from Chirom. If they realized that they had been bewitched, they should discuss it with Mr. Chirom immediately.
Iyas nodded in agreement.
The remaining Lothkar and Bai Jin went to the battlefield with Yang Yu.
Bai Jin is responsible for combat and liaison, ensuring that the plans of both sides are carried out simultaneously.
Lotkar provides important mobility. They will rush forward next. Who knows if there is an old monster waiting for them in the dark? If they can't defeat it, they can run away early.
After arranging what everyone should do, Yang Yu declined all letters and waited for the expedition.
Yang Yu didn't have to wait too long for the day of departure.
One day, the orc army suddenly launched a strong attack, breaking through several passes along the Beidong River and marching straight in.
If there is no way to stop them and the orcs open up a path, it will be the prelude to the collapse of the Rose Empire's defenses.
The top leaders of the Rose Empire immediately decided to mobilize several nearby armies and this batch of new soldiers to block them.
After a brief mobilization meeting, Yang Yu and his men headed directly to the battlefield.
Yang Yu only got a temporary force of about three hundred people.
In order to obtain more resources from Chirom, the Rose Empire appointed Yang Yu as deputy general in exchange.
Many high-ranking officials of the Rose Empire actually did not have high expectations for Yang Yu's military strength. After discussion, they decided to let some trustworthy officers join Yang Yu's team as important spies to prevent Yang Yu from making any mistakes.
The main force can only be replenished on the battlefield, but Yang Yu doesn't care.
Although Iyas and He Meng are not here, the mobile turret composed of Lothkar and Bai Jin is enough.
Yang Yu did not ignore these Rose recruits just because they were not strong enough. Instead, he taught them the skills of fighting alone in an approachable manner, just like teaching orcs.
Not only his own troops, Yang also shouted the slogan "Defeat the orcs and protect the country", vigorously harvesting the experience and favorability of the surrounding soldiers.
However, Yang Yu’s level was too high, and the experience points he got from the new recruits of the Rose Empire were not enough to fill the gap, so he only leveled up half a level.
Well, something is better than nothing.
Yang Yu never complains about lack of experience.
Getting closer and closer to the battlefield, Yang Yu and his team passed through the west side of Nokichi Forest.
Wansheng Republic had already set up an ambush in this forest.
Lotkar turned his ears, caught the strange sounds in the forest, and let out a long howl.
The Rose Empire troops were instantly alerted, and then waves of arrows and magic fell from the sky, attacking the Rose recruits from all directions.
Yang Yu and the general who led the team issued orders respectively: "Don't panic, the magician troops are ready to defend, and the rest of the troops are ready to fight immediately."
The magic troops of the Rose Empire were well-trained. They quickly opened the barrier in a short while and repelled all the flying magic and arrows.
Recruit Rose looked around vigilantly.
However, the orcs did not roar and rush towards the recruits, but hid quietly in the forest.
Seeing that the orcs did not attack, the general in charge ordered the troops to continue advancing.
Not long after they started marching, new long-range attacks came towards the new team, and the new recruits were once again forced to stop and defend.
This tactic is exactly the guerrilla tactics that Yang Yu taught the orc troops.
The orcs had already captured the edge of the Nokochi Forest and were infiltrating the Rose Empire along the forest.
The ones attacking Rose's new recruits now are none other than the Wansheng Republic's surprise attack force.
—When the enemy advances, I retreat; when the enemy retreats, I pursue; when the enemy rests, I harass.
Many orc troops have mastered the essentials of guerrilla warfare.
If the human army wants to quickly stop the orc army that is advancing rapidly, it will definitely pass through the western part of the Nokochi Forest.
Dense forests are the terrain where guerrilla tactics can be most effective.
The orc army intends to use this forest to delay the speed at which the new recruits merge with the front-line troops.
The orcs' surprise attack force is a guerrilla force that can even defeat Rose's regular army. They are full of confidence when facing these new recruits who have just left the factory.
Forced to stop and go along the way, the team leader General Rose was exhausted both physically and mentally by the orc troops.
Faced with this tactic, the best approach is not to disperse the troops, but to work together to survive this forest.
But the orc troops harassed too frequently.
If the orcs continue to harass at this frequency, it will greatly interfere with their advance speed and lead to unpredictable consequences.
After weighing the pros and cons, the general leading the new recruits asked Yang Yu, whose title was much higher than his.
The solution given by Yang Yu is very simple.
Guerrilla tactics require soldiers to have superb individual qualities. Orcs possess powerful reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities, and are far superior to humans in intelligence acquisition capabilities. This is why humans are fooled by them.
To break this situation, we need to send out stronger soldiers to defeat them instantly with lightning speed.
The general leading the team said: "But didn't you just say that
The orcs have extraordinary perception and they ran away as soon as we got close.
A single soldier sent out would only be fooled around by them and eventually fall into their trap."
"Just send out strong men who can overwhelm most of them. Orcs have keen senses, and the monster that signed a contract with me is not weak either.
You just defend here and don't move. I'll be back soon.
If I am not back in three hours, you will set off and we will catch up with you."
The general leading the team had some concerns, but finally agreed to Yang Yu's proposal.
It was Yang Yu who proposed to fight on his own initiative. If anything happens, it will have nothing to do with him.
Luo Ze's team of new recruits moved forward again. When Wansheng Republic's troops launched another attack, Yang Yu quickly rushed out from the troops towards the direction of the intensive attack at lightning speed.
Leaping up from Lothkar's back, Yang Yu used [Climbing] to jump back and forth between the branches. He scanned the forest and used the panel to find the orcs wearing camouflage uniforms and hiding in the woods.
Afterwards, Yang Yu quickly injured several orc magicians or archers who were responsible for harassment.
