In the earliest "test", Liu Yifei not only wanted to try to see what trump cards the opponent had, but also tested the opponent's level of tolerance. If he wanted to hit the opponent's hometown all the way, the undead could endure it.
If he does not show his true strength, it means that as long as he does not step on the opponent's bottom line, Liu Yifei will have greater tactical space.
A commander who can command a large-scale battle will never be limited to one city or one place, nor will he simply measure the battlefield initiative between the enemy and ourselves based on the gap in paper strength. In fact, as the aggressor fighting in a remote place,
The undead are naturally in a weak position, and even Liu Yifei can guess the real reason why the opponent hides his trump card.
It’s just that he’s afraid that his exposed strength will be too strong and suddenly “shock” the entire Kingdom of Erathia~
Thanks to the clear "historical conclusion", Liu Yifei knew that the original "War of Green Field" was a local war limited to the new territory of Green Field, which would cause Erathia to "turn a blind eye to the war that took place on the northern border."
"The big reasons are nothing more than two points: the desolation of the new green territory, and the enemy's "unable to get on the stage"...
Only when the above two points are established at the same time, can the various forces in Erathia maintain a tacit understanding in the general direction, paying little attention to the war and refugees taking place north of Lathander, but allowing Jenny, an outsider, to inadvertently
Emerge.
Liu Yifei didn't believe that the undead side in "history" didn't have a strong army to suppress the bottom of the box, but he was able to encounter it this time. The greater possibility is that Jenny, who was "fighting alone", didn't force out the opponent's trump card at all, but just used the undead force to
Realizing that the elves' foreign aid was intervening on the battlefield, it was equivalent to containing the elves' partial army from the side, and then they retreated calmly and left the Green Field Territory, which had been turned into a real wasteland...
In this way, it is obvious why the undead today want to "show weakness"~
Showing weakness to the enemy, even when someone knocked on the door of his hometown, he still endured it. Even when some rescue troops or reconnaissance troops were dispatched in the end, they only used a small team of [Black Knights] with the lowest configuration...
The undead party is so cautious, how could Liu Yifei not make a fuss about this?
Now that he has the advantage of mobility, and his hometown has no worries for the time being, and he has implemented the tactics of clearing the field with a strong wall, Liu Yifei begins to more actively infiltrate towards the enemy's rear... Yes, Liu Yifei even begins to avoid the two bridgeheads of the undead.
, and turned to expand the front line further behind the undead!
The undead army's logistical pressure has always been the easiest and most advantageous among all kinds of armies. However, some resources still require external supplements. For example, if you want to maintain the combat effectiveness of low-level armies, standard weapons made of metal ores are indispensable, otherwise skeletons
, the zombies and their ilk are much stronger than ordinary humans, and it is somewhat difficult to cause fatal damage to human soldiers.
In addition, vampires, corpse witches, and even stronger black warriors, and black knight troops also consume ordinary metal ores. Iron, copper, and even rarer silver are all military supplies for the undead troops.
Liu Yifei now leads the Pegasus Air Force to show up outside the two strongholds of the undead side from time to time to intimidate them. Then, while leaving the main force to monitor the movements of the undead, he instead sends out small groups of sentinels to investigate the four directions, in order to detect the opponent's presence in all directions.
Find the nearby resource points. Anyway, Liu Yifei definitely doesn't believe that Strong and the others have to travel all the way from Diya to transport military supplies to the front line...
After searching like this, Liu Yifei really found several targets!
Moreover, after the scouts came close to investigate, they even found out the depth of the opponent. They learned that not even the high-level undead garrisoned there were seen, only a large number of low-level cannon fodder working non-stop to mine resources...
Immediately afterwards, Liu Yifei formulated a surprise attack plan against the opponent's resource points. He immediately rushed to kill the enemy's "miners" and then immediately turned around, ignoring the large number of excavated resources staying near the resource points, because Liu Yifei's goal was
Ambush the opponent's "rescue force"!
Surrounding the point for reinforcements, what a simple tactic?
However, it may be that the intention was too obvious. Under the command of the two generals, the undead side was only fooled once. Liu Yifei ate a batch of undead and a small number of vampires, and then the enemy began to target external resources.
"Fall" turned a blind eye - so the supply demand of the undead army is indeed low. Even if the supply of metal resources such as iron and copper is temporarily cut off, bone arrows, bone knives and the like can still be used. It is just to reduce the damage a little, far from it.
To the point of being intolerable...
However, faced with the opponent's obvious shrinking tactics, Liu Yifei also found a new way to deal with it: he simply gave the locations of several resource points he found directly to the Zhenguo Guild, and agreed on a purchase price with them, directly luring them for profit.
!
When he first brought the other party into his "story battle group", the cooperation between the two parties was quite gentlemanly: in today's world, the value of "advanced plot" has become more and more prominent, and Liu Yifei is willing to take the initiative to contribute up to B-level battlefields, even
There are thousands of people, how could the Zhenguo Guild not like it?
Liu Yifei also needs a large number of "not afraid of death" supplementary troops to help him stabilize the battlefield, so both parties have the most basic space for cooperation.
It's just that Liu Yifei can only assign very vague mission goals to the other party, and it's not easy to interfere too much in the specific details. After all, they are working for him for free, right?
Only when more specific mandatory tasks are issued, Liu Yifei needs to pay additional "employment fees", which is equivalent to temporarily recruiting a large number of mercenaries to help him fight...
However, the financial pressure on the guild is actually not small. Not only the core members generally have salary needs, but even the benefits of the main team are a large expense, not to mention that Tang Zhenguo also pointed to his own guild for "support"
How can those veterans like him who have retired from the army endure working for nothing all day long?
This time, informing Tang Zhenguo of the location of the resource point was Liu Yifei’s decision after considering the needs of all parties:
In today's Green Field Territory, the southernmost end is where refugees gather and the new city will be built. More than ten miles to the north is the Kalava Castle, now the base camp of the "Allied Forces".
The villages and commercial towns at all levels that were originally scattered throughout the Green Field Territory were all forcibly emptied by Liu Yifei, leaving the territory empty and cutting off the room for foreign enemies to obtain "supplies."
So to this day, the main reason why it is difficult for the undead to spread southward is also due to Liu Yifei's timely response in the early days.
All the way to the northernmost end of the Green Field Territory are the two bridgehead strongholds of the undead in the east and west. They are more than twenty miles apart. At the same time, in a certain sense, they delineate the boundaries of the "Battle of Green Fields" battlefield——
At least in "history", Jenny should not have further burned the flames of war behind the undead, even if she later received great help from the elves...
However, Liu Yifei's vision was not limited from the beginning, and this time he directly hit the enemy's "retreat" - but the resource points in this area are really meaningless to Kalawa... Don't say
Even if the fierce battle is going on now, even if the undead in the North are expelled in the future, it will not be easy to incorporate these resource points into the kingdom's territory.
After all, the land is sparsely populated and the territory is vast. The scope of activities of NPCs cannot be expanded so quickly...
However, compared to NPCs, players are truly "profit-seeking"!
As long as there is profit motivation, the player can subvert the kingdom, and there is no pressure to do things such as joining the darkness. Who cares if the sky is high and the road is long?
As for how Tang Zhenting sent people there, whether to mine it himself or wait for the robbery, he didn't care. Liu Yifei only set the rules: the acquisition is done in Kalawa~
Of course, Liu Yifei would take the ordinary resources himself. After all, a large number of basic resources would be used in the construction of the new city. As for relatively rare ordinary resources like "silver", Liu Yifei could completely use them to trade with the lords in the south.
, to make up for one’s own expenses.
Of course, since the sky is high and the road is far away, and the output is unstable, this deal can only be a small supplement to Liu Yifei - in his current position, his vision has already exceeded that of ordinary players, and thousands of gold coins are just a small change to him.
, and don’t really take it to heart.
For Liu Yifei, the real "big business" he has at hand right now is actually the advantage he takes from the elves...
The food crops that are urgently ripened by magic are nourished by the "magic power" of the life messengers from breeding to growth, and even the land on the cultivated land will receive extra magic power. Therefore, these emergency military rations contain a very small amount of magic power.
If he had no choice, Liu Yifei had no choice but to give these trace amounts of magical food to his refugees.
But now that many "representatives" of the southern forces have gathered in Kalawa, Liu Yifei has a better idea - you must know that these grains that naturally contain a little magic are also very precious in the eyes of ordinary nobles~
Common people cannot afford even one spell caster, but which of the powerful feudal nobles doesn’t have a magic advisor? Even powerful lords have their own private spell casters! It’s just a matter of quality...
There are even members of aristocratic families who are casters from their own clan!
At this time, these foods that contain a little magical power are quite tempting to them. Even the life force contained in these foods is itself a rare natural "health product"!
When food is sold, it is certainly worthless, but if it is packaged well and sold as a "luxury product", Liu Yifei can suddenly increase his food or more resources several times!
This is the business Liu Yifei needs to plan carefully now...
Liu Yifei gradually turned the "battlefield" into a "business field", but some people came really aggressively seeking revenge...
