The old commander-in-chief is an old commander-in-chief after all, and he has very rich combat experience.

He is a rat-man who survived the war years, and has experienced many more battles than the young rat-men of today.

For the younger generation of ratmen who like to rely entirely on technology to defeat them, the ratman commander prefers to use various strategic techniques.

Guerrilla and ambush, coupled with the advanced weapons of the rat tribe, really brought a lot of trouble to Li Ziyu.

The old commander is very familiar with the Skaven territory. Before launching an attack, he will send people to monitor the movements of the undead, then hold a combat meeting, deduce predictions, formulate plans, and then send various Skaven troops to prepare in advance to ambush and raid the undead army.

That is to say, there are too many undead, otherwise it would be easy for the old commander to use guerrilla tactics to defeat him.

The main thing is to be invisible and hit and run away.

There are not many places to hide in the wilderness, unlike jungles, mountains and other environments. In many places, there are just some low withered grass and scattered stones. But even in such an environment, the ratmen can still make great use of their guerrillas.

Completely thanks to their innate skill Ambush.

Apparently there is nothing there, but as soon as the undead pass by, a group of rat men will suddenly appear and attack with a loud roar.

By the time the undead regained their composure, the rat people had already run away, making it impossible for them to catch up.

The ratmen's results were very good. They killed many undead without taking any damage, which was much more comfortable than fighting the undead on a frontal battlefield.

Such results surprised the younger generation of ratmen. They never thought that the battle could be fought like this.

After the Skaven gained a foothold in the central area and entered the era of great technological development, they gave up their previous fighting methods, believing that the previous methods were outdated and of no value. The Skaven's scientific and technological power was enough to support them and others.

The race engages in a frontal war.

The small-scale battles that occurred from time to time indeed confirmed this.

With the support of powerful weapons, they can always take advantage in small-scale battles, constantly deepening the idea that "a head-on confrontation will definitely win".

The idea that "a head-on confrontation will definitely win" has increased the rat race's racial self-confidence.

This is also the reason why when the ratmen faced off against the undead in the early stage, they were not timid at all, they were just tough.

The younger generation of ratmen think so, but the old commander doesn't think so.

In the era when he was active, the Ratmen were far from strong enough. In terms of physical fitness, the Ratmen had no advantage at all and needed to build city walls to resist attacks from other enemies.

But city walls cannot be built overnight, city-states are not that easy to build, and people will not just watch you build a city-state.

The Rat People were faced with the dilemma of building a city on the one hand, and defending against the outside world on the other.

On the frontal battlefield, the fight was really confusing.

In almost every head-on battle, the Ratmen were able to inflict 800 losses on the enemy and 1,200 losses on us.

If it weren't for the large population of the Ratmen, they would have died out long ago.

Unable to gain an advantage on the frontal battlefield, the Ratmen learned from the experience and changed their tactics.

It can be said that the fighting methods of the Ratmen were all experimented with the lives of their ancestors.

Every fighting method handed down, no matter how simple it is, means the death of countless ratmen.

This is how the old commander came out step by step. He was also a man who licked blood from his knife edge and rolled among the dead. He had seen too many deaths and injuries.

After the rat race developed, they forgot the fighting methods of their ancestors. This was an extremely stupid behavior in the eyes of the old commander.

The guerrilla tactics of the Ratmen are a very classic and one of the fundamental tactics of the Ratmen.

It's a pity that the ratmen nowadays have abandoned such tactics and only like to fight head-on.

An army of 600,000 is fighting against tens of millions of undead. No matter how hard you try, you can't win.

In order to make his troops more obedient, the old commander took them to Thakor to let them suffer a defeat and recognize the reality.

Being stubborn will really kill you.

The effect is outstanding.

Now the private soldiers of the nobles are very obedient.

The old commander-in-chief will follow his command, he will fight wherever he says, and he will fight how he says.

This made the old commander very happy.

The purpose of his war meeting was not to listen to the opinions of other young officers, but to tell them the fighting methods he knew and to let them not forget the classic tactics of the Ratmen.

Under the old commander's layout, many undead were indeed killed. This is a fact, an indelible fact, which proves that the previous tactics are still effective.

Under the command of the old commander, the young officers gained confidence again after winning one victory after another.

Compared to the young officers, the old commander was not so optimistic. As the person with the highest position, he could see clearly that this was an unwinnable battle. All they could do was to try to hold back the undead.

The difference is too huge.

Even if the Skaven's equipment is more advanced, it cannot make up for this numerical difference.

In particular, the undead have many characteristics that make him feel scared. For example, the undead can continue to move and will not feel tired. They do not need to rest or eat. They will become stronger at night. They can easily find out.

Creatures that are hiding have few weaknesses of their own. If you don't smash their heads, it won't have much impact on them, etc.

After all kinds of comparisons, the only conclusion the old commander could draw was that they would lose.

Guerrilla and ambush tactics can only bring trouble to the undead, but cannot truly solve the crisis.

The old commander-in-chief was thinking about causing trouble for the undead army, and Li Ziyu was also having a headache.

He rubbed his temples and frowned into the character "Chuan".

"Ah, guerrilla warfare..."

This tactic is so classic and familiar. Who doesn’t know this famous tactic?

Li Ziyu never expected that one day this tactic would be applied to him.

It's not easy to solve.

In the past few days, the rat people have been attacking the undead army, but it is still not easy to find people, which gives him a headache.

It can be said that attacking the troops rushing to the battlefield is not a big problem.

The biggest problem lies in the siege.

The fight here was lively, and a group of ratmen suddenly ran out from behind, armed with various long-range weapons, and they started beating randomly, which directly disrupted the rhythm of the undead attack.

This was not what Li Ziyu had guessed, but it had happened several times recently. As a result, he had not captured a single city-state after leaving Tucker.

Look for the rat army, but you can't find it yet.

He had already used the Eye of the Undead, but all he could find were scattered troops. The Undead had killed a few in the past, but to no avail. The Ratmen were determined to guerrilla, ambush, and lose a few teams. They didn't care.

Eighteen hundred people.

There was no main force at all, it was completely dispersed, and the rat tribe's combat center could not be found.

The other party's commander-in-chief this time is not simple.

Li Ziyu felt very uncomfortable. The previous encounters were all head-on battles, and the outcome was determined by the end of the fight.

This time I met a master.

They don't confront you head-on, they just attack you secretly.

No matter what, the weapons and equipment of the Ratmen are still very sharp, and long-range weapons can kill low-level undead in large numbers.

Once or twice is fine, but if it happens too many times and the loss is in vain, it will be a bit uncomfortable.

The Skaven's ambush skills were used to perfection.

The offensive was delayed.

The army of tens of millions of undead was just held back by the rat race's attack.

"It's time to activate the backup plan." Zhang Peng saw Li Ziyu's troubled look and stepped forward to remind him.

"I really don't want to use that plan, it will bring our mercenary plan into question." Li Ziyu sighed and said helplessly.

The normal plan is to use a massive army of undead to push it across.

But when this plan gets thwarted, there is a backup plan available.

The Ratmen rented a large number of undead legions from Li Ziyu, and these undead legions are now scattered in the Ratmen's territory.

Once they receive Li Ziyu's summons, these undead legions will quickly assemble and attack the Ratmen from within, causing them to disintegrate internally.

There is a drawback here, which is that it will make other races distrustful of the hired undead army.

After all, if the undead can do this to the Ratmen, they can do it to other races.

Li Ziyu is not ready to go to war with all the races in the central zone.

He can deal with the Ratmen, but if he goes up against two powerful tribes, his strength may not be enough.

"Then do you have any other plans?" Zhang Peng also knew that Li Ziyu had nothing to do now. If other city-states could not push the plan, he could only activate the backup plan.

"I'll try and talk about it later." Li Ziyu shook his head, still not planning to use the backup plan. He felt it wasn't the right time yet.

I don't believe that just a few hundred thousand rat people can really stop tens of millions of undead.

The undead tribe has a lot of technology, and if they are not all available, there is no technology that can break the rat-human ambush.
