Chapter 944 Border Confrontation
The Lizardmen troops maintained the spear formation advancement. During this period, the Velociraptor Cavalry was divided into two and supported on both wings of the battle formation. There were also green lizard short spearmen covering the outside. It was the Lizardmen who appeared. The most classic offensive tactic in this stage.
With the Skaven as the opponent, the early confrontations with the Claw Clan have completely proven the power of this set of tactics.
Now that the round of fighting is over, the lizardman troops headed by Thoros have suddenly regained some of their previous feelings.
Not only because of the use of this set of tactics, but also because the offensive of the ratmen in front of them has returned to its previous state.
That is a war of attrition!
With the large forces taking the initiative, as the attacking side, they have lost their home field advantage and need to face more pressure.
In addition, the cost of maintaining a large army for expeditions will continue to increase for a country.
To put it simply, every day when a large army goes out to fight, even if there is no war, it is still burning money, burning money like crazy!
Under the understanding of this, the Skaven turned to lower the battle rhythm and turned to engage in a war of attrition with them. It is self-evident that they want to wear them down at this level.
Soros was well aware of the Rat People's little thoughts, but it was undeniable that the Rat People's situation destined them to be born to fight a war of attrition.
At this moment, facing the Rat Man's classic tactics, he was really at a loss to defeat the opponent. He felt as if he was being dragged into the opponent's rhythm.
In the next few days, fighting on both sides began to break out around the border.
Although each time it ended with their lizard-men troops repelling the rat tide, they were unable to locate the rat-men's underground lair at this stage, and the rat-men on the opposite side did not give them anything at all. Search opportunity sake.
As a result, their entire offensive at this stage lacks a clear goal. The large force is completely contained at the border, and there is no way to advance smoothly.
Lizardmen are experienced in fighting ratmen.
Every one of them has long been accustomed to this long war of attrition, and their mentality is basically stable.
But after several days of attrition wars, their originally high morale inevitably began to fade.
Lizardmen and ratmen are races that all have night vision capabilities. They basically fight day and night.
Under this premise, I don’t know if it was after a few days of attrition war that the ratmen who contained the lizardmen’s offensive gradually stabilized their position and built up their confidence in the battle. Recently, they have really It just gradually became rampant.
Compared with lizardmen, ratmen actually have a major advantage, that is, they have more troops.
As long as they want, they can completely arrange two waves of rats to launch offensives during the day and night, and take turns. In this way, the physical problems can be solved to a large extent.
And the Rat Man did exactly that.
After nightfall, a new wave of rats directly attacked the lizardmen's position.
At this moment, the Lizardmen troops are on the front line, and there is basically only a simple camp for them to stay. The camp itself cannot provide them with any defensive blessings.
Under this premise, there is no need to say how much pressure they have to endure when they are attacked by the rat tide day and night.
At the same time, in the night far away from the battlefield, a black figure was traveling quickly at a fast and dexterous pace.
During this period, a ray of cold moonlight fell down, making its black fur exude a different color under the moonlight, and also revealed its appearance.
That is a black panther with a strong posture!
The black panther lowered his head and kept sniffing the smell on the ground while observing the surrounding situation. At this moment, a small movement came from the distance.
The sound was mixed in the howling night wind, almost impossible to catch, but it could not escape its keen hearing.
At that moment, the black panther was like a phantom in the night. He jumped up and climbed directly to the tree along the main trunk of a big tree nearby. He stepped on the branches and gained a high view.
The black panther with night vision can still see clearly even in a night-covered environment. Coupled with the blessing of high-altitude vision, he quickly discovered the source of the sound, which was A small band of Skaven.
It looks like it should be the rat men’s eyeliners scattered in this area.
At this moment, they were looking around surreptitiously. After making sure that there was nothing unusual, one of the rat men moved away a bush on the side, and then dug down a few more times, revealing what was hidden under the soil. A piece of wood.
Opening the wooden board, a deep hole was suddenly exposed to the air!
Immediately afterwards, the Rat Man outside slipped in quickly.
The black panther hiding in the tree could be said to have taken in this scene, confirmed its position, and then quietly retreated.
On a new day, the war between lizards and ratmen continues to break out on the border.
This area is full of rat men's informants. Basically, as soon as the lizard men here make a move, the rat tide of rat men will immediately come forward, bringing the entire situation to a stalemate.
While the two sides continued to fight, a loud "boom" suddenly came from the Ratman territory in the distance.
The movement was so loud that the lizard people on the border felt as if the ground beneath their feet was shaking.
I don’t know what happened after that. The rat man on the opposite side was obviously confused.
Seeing this scene, Soros's eyes lit up, and he immediately took up the mantra of 'boosting morale', accompanied by the words 'For the Emperor! ’’s war cry suddenly revived the lizardmen’s gradually weakened fighting spirit, making the lizardmen’s offensive momentum become even more fierce.
At the same time, on the periphery of the battlefield, the trapped camp entered the scene.
The existence of the trapped camp is no longer a secret to this battlefield.
They have not been allowed to enter the field, purely out of consideration for the physical strength of the war horses, allowing them to retain their status and wait for the opportunity.
And now, the time has come!
“The ambition to be trapped!”
"Death or life!!!"
With the battle cry, the unstoppable cavalry cut directly into the rat tide from the flank.
Just like the impact of a meteorite, in conjunction with the advancement of the lizardman army, just one offensive destroyed the large army of ratmen deployed on the border!
The Ratmen, who had lost their will to fight, collapsed in an instant. During this period, the large force headed by Thoros kept moving, advancing straight towards the direction of the loud noise in the distance.
The next thing that caught their eyes was a large area of land that had obviously collapsed, as well as a large number of thick vines that had broken through the ground.
Between the earth, rocks and vines, you can clearly see that a large number of rat people were involved, and their lives and deaths were uncertain.
Needless to say, the area in front of me that was reduced to ruins in a short period of time was the Rat Man’s underground lair on the front line!
