Chapter 1155 Shi Lei’s Position
But the shock only lasted for a moment.
Surprised. From the perspective of Wojin and others, the air units of this era are basically auxiliary. They do not have enough lethality and lack the ability to dominate the battlefield. This As a result, the focus of the war is still concentrated on the ground troops.
"Lord Wo'jin, these rocks blocking the way must be dealt with, otherwise I will not be able to let my soldiers provide support for you."
Wo'jin understands. What Shi Lei meant.
Assuming that the battle fails and the green-skinned troops launch a massive attack, blocking these stones here will cut off the retreat of the Zhou troops.
As their common enemy, considering the threat posed by the green skins to them, Shi Lei really sincerely wants to assist Copperhearth Castle, but this does not mean that he wants to bring their Great Zhou troops in. .
Not even leaving a way out?
If this was the case, he would rather withdraw his troops directly. At worst, they would stick to the plain fortress. They would still have the defensive advantage at home.
Their Dazhou is no longer the Dazhou it used to be. In recent years, they have been fighting against the greenskins frequently, and they already have a certain amount of confidence!
Therefore, if we want Dazhou's troops to come to support, this road must be cleared.
"Your Excellency Shi Lei, I understand what you mean. I have arranged for manpower to clean up as quickly as possible."
As Wojin spoke, he pointed around to prove himself. What is said is true.
Shi Lei had already noticed the situation here from the air.
Now after receiving Wo'jin's promise, he nodded quickly.
"Our Dazhou troops will also clean up on the other side and strive to clear the road in the shortest possible time!"
In this regard, Wojin had no choice but to accept it.
If you don’t accept it, they will retreat and quit! What can you do?
In this matter, they were originally the passive party.
Not to mention that this matter is indeed their fault. There has been such a large-scale landslide in their own territory for several years. Who can blame them if they have not dealt with it?
Fortunately, Dazhou's support force is quite large. With all the soldiers helping to clear the road, it shouldn't take too much time.
Wo Jin's attitude softened Shi Lei's originally overly serious expression.
At least the other party is sensible, which will make their subsequent cooperation much smoother.
After briefly reaching a consensus on this matter, Wojin couldn't help but glance at the Giant Eagle Knight who was not far away.
"Your Excellency Shi Lei, is that your air unit of Great Zhou?"
After all, Wo'jin couldn't help but ask.
It is true that in this era, the air force is not the protagonist of the battlefield, but from a auxiliary perspective, it cannot be denied that the air force can provide huge reconnaissance and vision advantages, and has tactical value that cannot be ignored!
When the hot air balloon, the most common aerial unit in this era, cannot pose a threat to them, Dazhou's Giant Eagle Knight can do whatever they want from the air!
“Yes, the Giant Eagle Knight.”
“Is this giant eagle a strange beast?”
"Of course, but there are only a handful of them. We spent a lot of effort to get them."
Shi Lei's words were half true and half false.
Currently, the Giant Eagle Knight is considered one of the standard equipment of their Great Zhou army.
In the case of an alliance with the dwarves, the existence of the Giant Eagle Knight cannot be concealed, so it is better to show it openly.
But the statement ‘a handful’ is undoubtedly lying to him. They have successfully domesticated the giant eagle internally in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Now, what limits the expansion of the giant eagle knights is actually the number of wood elves.
Don’t think that just anyone can ride on the back of a giant eagle and fly around at high speed in the air while dodging!
Being able to achieve this is due to the inherited mantra "Eagle Control" contained in the blood of the wood elves.
This move was simply created for the wood elves to control the giant eagle!
Wo'jin was obviously very interested in the Giant Eagle Knight, but Shi Lei didn't want to discuss this topic in depth with Wo'jin. After a few casual words, he mounted the giant eagle and flew back.
Then he asked his adjutant to arrange turns for the soldiers under his command, and to clear the blocked road in front of him in three shifts.
While clearing the road, he also had to ensure that his soldiers could get adequate rest.
Instead of getting exhausted on this thing.
But even so, after a few days, the soldiers, who almost turned into brick-moving workers on the construction site, were inevitably tired.
“Captain, do you think we can’t just use explosive barrels to blow this up?”
Upon hearing this, the captain slapped the soldier directly on the back of the head.
“Do you want us all to be buried alive down there?! You idiot!”
The collapse of part of the mountain has created an environment similar to a canyon passage in this area.
It is really smart to play blasting in this place where large-scale landslides have occurred.
This small episode did not have much impact on Shi Lei.
Among all the generals under Zhou Xu, he is the most calm one.
In comparison, Woking is much more anxious.
The later the reinforcements arrive on the battlefield, the greater the risks and losses that Copperhearth Castle will have to bear.
Although the number of reinforcements sent by Zhou Dynasty this time is limited, considering their crossbow troops, as long as they can appear on the flank battlefield, they can help them share a lot of pressure.
Not to mention that this time Zhou brought over a group of centaur mercenaries! For Woking, this is simply an unexpected surprise!
Although their dwarf heavy crossbowmen were powerful against the big green-skinned guys, during the head-on confrontation between them, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry on the opposite side tried to find every opportunity to launch an attack on their position. They were very passive when they were beaten.
Under this premise, considering the battlefield environment outside their Copperforge, a group of centaur mercenaries can undoubtedly cooperate with their boar knights to effectively deal with the Goblin Wolf Cavalry on the opposite side. containment!
This makes Woking even more eager to obtain this support!
However, at this moment, a boar knight rushed over from behind in a panic.
"Lord Wo'jin, a green-skinned army is coming this way!"
After hearing the news, Wo Jin's face suddenly darkened.
On the main battlefield, as long as the large armies of both sides are fighting, the greenskins will find every opportunity to infiltrate. This kind of thing has happened more than once.
The green-skinned troops that appeared outside the fortress in the Great Zhou Plain before came here this way.
When the two sides start fighting, Copperforge, which is at a disadvantage, tends to focus on its head rather than its bottom, allowing the greenskins to succeed frequently.
Because of this situation, many dwarves, including Vol'jin, were filled with anger and had long wanted to kill them!
But this does not mean that Wo'jin wants to confront the greenskin troops at this time...
