Chapter 1257 A Kind of Torture
In the next two hours, according to Li Ce's arrangement, except for the soldiers responsible for surveillance missions, the other soldiers in the air force rested in place.
If we want to say who is the most tired on the coalition side in the past two days, it must be them.
Ever since the green-skinned army was discovered, the frequency of operations of the air force in the past two days has been almost full, and there is no stopping at all.
After two days of hard work, let alone the Giant Eagle Knight, even the Pegasus Knight, who was more physically capable, was almost unable to withstand it. The little rest time in between made it impossible for them to have a good rest.
The two hours given by Li Ce allowed them to take a good breath, and their entire state was relieved.
At the same time, the green-skinned army...
Maybe the greenskins didn't have a clear concept of minutes and hours, but under the constant harassment from the air force, they had a basic idea of how long fifteen minutes was.
After estimating that the time was almost up, they subconsciously tensed up their nerves, then glanced at the sky, thinking, 'It's almost time to arrive. ’
As a result, I waited and waited to no avail.
At this time, the first reaction of the greenskins was not relief, but panic.
"WAAAAGH! What tricks are they trying to do again?"
Once every fifteen minutes is a stable frequency.
After the greenskins figure out the rules, they only need to pay a little attention to the stuck points, and the rest of the time they can rest assured.
But now, this rule is suddenly broken.
The attacks that would have appeared stably were suddenly injected with unstable factors, which made the greenskins obviously become irritable and anxious.
Because they don't know when the explosive bomb will suddenly fall.
It felt like there was a knife hanging brightly above their heads.
The anxiety caused by this made it impossible for them to rest peacefully.
Soon, an hour passed...
The greenskins forced themselves to rest. At the same time, they were indeed tired and dizzy, but they couldn't sleep at all.
People who have never experienced it cannot imagine how painful and torturous this state is!
In comparison, they are much more comfortable with the air force that holds the leadership.
Two hours of rest was enough for them to get some sleep. During this period, the giant eagle and Pegasus also got a rest.
When they woke up, everyone was obviously much more energetic.
There was no delay. After a little preparation, we set off again immediately.
Two hours is a relatively subtle range.
This time span is enough for their anxiety to gradually calm down under the constant erosion of time and sleepiness, and then...
"Bang!"
There was an explosion, and a certain nerve in countless green skins seemed to be broken at this moment.
"WAAAAGH!!!"
If they were given a chance at this moment, they would immediately rush forward and die together with the opponent without hesitation.
It's a pity that they don't even have the chance to die now, they are just being tortured one-sidedly.
Looking at the almost crazy greenskins flying in the air below, the Pegasus knight who had just completed the bomb drop felt his scalp numb. What if someone comes to ask them later who is the most powerful commander in Zhou Dynasty? They may not be able to answer, but if you ask them who is the most terrifying commander in Zhou Dynasty? Now they will definitely say those two words without hesitation, Li Ce!
Confronting Li Ce would definitely be a torture!
In any case, Li Ce's arrangement opened up a new way of thinking for the air force responsible for executing this tactic.
There was no need for Li Ce to arrange the whole process. Since then, the air force has directly imitated the same pattern, and the frequency of subsequent bomb drops has become sometimes regular and sometimes irregular. The two modes are interspersed with each other, torturing the will of the opposing green-skinned troops throughout the process. .
According to the green-skinned general's original idea, he originally wanted to rest until noon and then start the pursuit.
After all, he also knew that the troops on the opposite side had already traveled a lot ahead of them. If they didn't pursue them, it would be difficult to catch up.
But the reality still made him stop eating until dark.
After the sky completely darkened, the first thing the green-skinned general did was to order the transfer of positions.
The night before, Da Zhou had already used all his means, and this night there was no way he could launch another harassment offensive like before.
During this period, neither the Giant Eagle Knight nor the Pegasus Knight had night vision.
Under the cover of the night, once the large force on the opposite side moved, the difficulty for them to re-lock the target could be said to have doubled.
Realizing that the target was lost, the Giant Eagle Knight quickly turned back and reported to Li Ce.
This situation was within Li Ce's expectation. Now that he heard the exact report, he didn't show any signs of anxiety on his face.
"Don't be in a hurry, circle a large area, arrange a patrol team to patrol, and that's it. The others can rest."
According to the distance between them and the green skins at this stage, even if they were given one night, the green skins would not be able to catch up.
After doing the most basic vigilance work, they can rest assured, refresh themselves, and then continue on their way when dawn comes. This is a cycle to put it bluntly.
At the same time, under the cover of night, the green-skinned army that had moved their positions finally ushered in a rare period of peace.
The green-skinned general, who had already lost his head with anger, had his first reaction to launch a pursuit all night long.
Just when he was about to give the order, the Bloody Hand King next to him finally couldn't stand it anymore.
The main reason is that if the opponent continues to struggle like this, the casualties of their Bloody Hand Clan will continue to increase.
"We can't go on like this. If you chase us at night, when we need to rest during the day, the other party will harass us again just like they did today."
"We are chasing at night and being harassed during the day. We don't get much rest time at all. Sooner or later we will be dragged down."
While speaking, the Bloody Hand King did not hesitate and directly expressed his thoughts...
"We should change our thinking, rest at night, recharge ourselves, and start the pursuit after dawn. In this way, although the opponent will still come to harass us, at least we are in good condition. At most, it will have a certain impact on our pursuit efficiency. .”
"..."
A green-skin who can cultivate to the peak of the Vajra Realm and become a general in the green-skin royal family cannot be a fool.
The main reason why he became like this was because he hadn't had a good rest for too long. He was exhausted physically and mentally, and his mentality was broken by Li Ce.
Now after hearing what the Bloody Hand King said, the green-skinned general took a deep breath of the cold late night air and had to admit that the other party's arrangement was more reliable.
When things got to this point, the casualties under his command had reached a point where he had to produce some results before he could deliver.
Thinking of this, the green-skinned general also spoke in a deep voice...
"Pass my order and the whole army rests."
