Four hundred and thirtieth chapters lure the enemy to fight
As late summer turns to autumn, there is a slight chill in the morning. In order to prepare for today's battle, the elves had breakfast early. Unlike the previous period where there were many restrictions, this time they were free to eat.
After all, war has always been unpredictable. After one meal, you don’t know when the next meal will be or whether you will have a chance to eat it. Therefore, this breakfast is a rare and rich breakfast in recent days. Of course, there are some people who can’t eat.
I just grit my teeth, hold on, and feel sad secretly.
The teammates chosen by the Elf Sword Dancer Leena Titov are all rough-looking people who can eat and sleep, and regard death as nothing. In fact, in the current situation, such people will be better than those elves with strong martial arts.
They also need to be trustworthy. At least they won't collapse on the battlefield and hold back other comrades.
She casually picked off a mint leaf, stuffed it into her mouth and chewed it. Liena stared closely at the north, which is the direction where the Centaur coalition forces may appear. Rather than being worried and nervous, she did not understand the order given by the man.
intention.
It wouldn't be wrong to say that she didn't understand it at all. At least she understood that her mission was actually to be a bait. There was nothing too complicated about the operation, she just ran back desperately after finding the centaur.
There is no need to deliberately lure the opponent. The centaur's scouting level will naturally hang tightly behind him. Then he recruits the army and drives himself in the direction of the group like a dead dog. This also has the intention of letting him lead the way and let them
You can find the location of the elf team faster.
The elves are all familiar with these routines, but sometimes it's no good if they don't follow them, because if the enemy is found, at least someone has to go back and report it. And my own two legs can't run as fast as others' four legs. Who can blame me?
Although the elven guards brought many camels and a considerable number of cavalry, the elves were really no match for the centaurs in a horse battle. So no one had ever thought of relying on a cavalry force that was far outnumbered by their opponents. Hope
They can be the key to victory. The greater possibility is that if you throw a stone into the lake, you will only hear a "thud" and nothing will happen.
Besides, camels have another purpose. When things get out of hand, a large number of camels are used to hide the young elf king and escape. And a large number of unmounted camels are used to confuse the centaurs and make them mistakenly
He thought that there was no important person in the flock of birds, so he gave up the chase to increase the chance of Ridan III escaping.
Therefore, the elves who came out as bait could only rely on their own feet to escape.
There are actually six or seven of the same enemy-baiting teams as our own, and they are not many in number, scattered on several roads to the north. In other words, no matter which direction the centaurs come from, they will definitely encounter one of their own.
Then follow the established plan to lure them to the target location.
The originally planned defense line was pushed aside by someone. Not many elves had any objections to this, because even if they didn't eat or sleep for just one night, they couldn't lay out a decent fortification. That
The suggestion from the human magician is that since there is no city wall to defend, it is better to focus on street fighting from the beginning.
According to what he learned when he contacted another His Majesty, Waldwo, to destroy a World Tree, it was definitely not just about setting fire to it and chopping down the tree. Although it was said that it was that simple.
The size of the World Tree varies greatly depending on age and level. Even Lahti, who is called malnourished by someone, has a tree diameter of nearly 90 meters. Because it is not a perfect circle, the circumference is 300 meters.
It's about fifty meters tall, surrounded by about two hundred people. A sacred tree of this level would have to be chopped down to the year of the monkey and the moon of the horse.
So according to Waldwo, to destroy the World Tree and obtain the essence, you must attack the heart of the tree. Generally, the World Tree will protect that place very well. In a war between wood elves, the winning side will also spend a lot of money.
It took quite a while to dig a hole into the tree body or roots, cut off the connection between the heart of the tree and the entire World Tree, and then set a fire from the inside to ignite it.
But if the Elf Kingdom wants to control the World Tree, they will make a fuss about the core area of the tree. They will expose the core of the World Tree without others having to dig holes. This will also allow the enemy to enter quickly.
An opportunity to leave quickly. But the reason why the wood elves don’t regard the kingdom’s World Tree as nourishment on the road to promotion is because there are too many soldiers.
However, the implication of this communication is that the high officials of the Turtle Dove Alliance, such as Waldwo, are very clear about the situation of the World Tree under the control of the Elf Kingdom, and that is why they have those original statements. The centaurs also understand, so
Only then can we have the confidence to move in and out quickly and implement this reckless tactic.
Not to mention the right or wrong attitude towards the World Tree, now that we know the opponent's attack target, we can of course think of the corresponding defensive method, which is the street fighting mentioned before. Or should we say, taking advantage of the terrain advantage of the small tree-shaped village to fight against the half-tree.
The men and horses started fighting for every inch of land. Because the heart of the tree in Lahti was deep in the inner passage, deeper than the room of the God-Slaying Magic Array.
The reason why the elves didn't think of this was actually because at the beginning, all their tactics were designed to prevent the World Tree from being damaged in any way. Of course, they also had to protect their young king. But since it was scratched
It won't be a big deal to light the bark, so why bother trying to prevent the World Tree from causing any harm, and then give up on using this natural fortress.
In fact, someone's awakening rekindled the hope of the elves. They did not have no chance of winning. Moreover, various targeted arrangements and deployments could do better than the suggestions of this human magician.
The reason why this magician's plan is still followed is because his position is already on the front line. And the effort required by the elves is only a few bait teams. If this bluffing human fails, the elves will
They are not yet at the point of collapse, they only need to occupy the advantageous position on the tree and compete with the centaurs for every inch.
Yes. Once he found an opportunity to win, the war minister returned to his old ways and discriminated against all ethnic groups that were not elves.
Thinking of that man who didn't care about it, but made the old man Maxim Stashe so angry that he didn't want to speak, Liena felt a little relieved. She didn't despise her people, but she lived in her own little world and cherished the memory.
Is this really a good idea to enjoy the glory of the empire thousands of years ago? It is a pity that many elves only want to live in the past and do not face the present.
'Sister, someone is coming!'
The speaker was a chubby elf who was a few years older than the young king. He was young enough to become the king's bodyguard. In addition to his family being somewhat powerful, this chubby elf was not only smart, but also very intelligent.
His talent is also quite good, and he is regarded as the next strong person who is expected to transcend the life level of ordinary elves.
Such an elf took the initiative to join Liena's decoy team. In the first five years of his compulsory military service for elves, he had many conflicts with the army of the human kingdom at the border, but he never encountered a centaur. Some people say,
In the battle with the previous king, although the centaurs cheated the elves, they also suffered considerable losses, so they have been quiet until now.
He appeared here just because he wanted to see what the elves' old enemy looked like for the first time. So when he discovered the centaur's whereabouts, he was quite excited to report back to the on-site commander, Leena Titov,
The daughter of the prime minister of the kingdom.
'quantity?'
'Should Sanqi run away? Or swallow them?'
"Do you look like you want to run away?" Liena looked at the young man angrily. Rather than despair, there are a group of romantics among the elves who are eager for war. And these people are not just ordinary people.
There are so many heroic poems, but there are only young people who talk arrogantly. In the conflict on the border, each of these people was a man of outstanding merit.
There are many such people among the elves that she has chosen. Not only them, but even Liena herself does not want to do nothing and only be responsible for luring the enemy to the designated place. But that person's order is quite strange.
"Failure is allowed but victory is not allowed". This is the military order. The elves do not have the tradition of going outside or anything. Obedience is the foundation of a strong elven army, especially this kind of tactical order.
However, the specific operation is not something that the man who is not at the scene can control. As soon as they meet, running away with their tail between their legs is not her style, nor is it the style of the elves. She gathered the members of the team and said: "
We have X (10) people. If we run away when we meet, we are afraid that it will arouse the vigilance of the centaurs. So we still find a way to besiege, but at least let more than one centaur go. So this is my plan..."
After the explanation, all the elves became energetic and immediately acted according to the order. Although the temporary team leader said that at least one centaur must be let go. But when the fight actually breaks out, who can say for sure? What if too much?
If you release water too deliberately, you may easily fall into a dangerous situation.
A group of confident young people walked lightly through the woods and surrounded the three centaur scouts.
I thought it would be an easy encounter, but all the developments were completely different from what the elves imagined. As soon as they got close to the effective shooting range of the short bow used by the scouts in their hands, the three centaur scouts on the opposite side noticed the clues and gathered around
together.
The young elf who did not believe in evil took another step forward, and three spears were shot at him at the same time! He was forced to roll around and narrowly avoided the spears, but his whereabouts were revealed.
Now that someone was exposed, the other elves didn't care and continued to advance slowly. They jumped out of their hiding places, shot with bows, and ran towards the centaurs.
All the actions of the elves seemed to have been familiar to the three centaur scouts for a long time. They did not stand around and wait for the elves' encirclement net to be completed. Instead, they sprinted in the direction where the spear had just been thrown, because the elf who rolled away,
It just became a gap in the surrounding network.
The actions of being led by the nose had already caused the encirclement network to be in disarray. Only Liena did not jump out immediately. On the contrary, she climbed up the tree nimbly. And the three centaur scouts
Just as predicted, she ran past under the tree where she was hiding. Holding two swords in hand, Liena jumped down when she saw that the last centaur was about to pass!
