Chapter 1163 Shi Lei’s Speculation
Da Zhou’s muscles flashed, shocking Balai’s jaw. If he wasn’t currently fighting with the greenskins, he would definitely rush to Da Zhou’s camp to take a look. after all.
During this period, the bombing by demolition vehicles on the Dazhou defense line gave them a good start. The roaring sound of explosions sounded to them like wildly beating war drums, which boosted the morale of the soldiers.
As the green-skinned army continued to approach, Shi Lei, as the commander, completely focused his attention on commanding the battle situation in front of him.
Following Shi Lei's arrangements, Dazhou's crossbow troops spread out their shooting formations outside the protective wall in an orderly manner.
Then with an order, row after row of Dazhou crossbowmen quickly launched a multi-stage attack towards the approaching green-skinned soldiers!
Early before, when Wo'jin suggested that it would be better to form an alliance with the Great Zhou to jointly resist the greenskin invasion, he had mentioned to him that the Great Zhou had a good crossbow unit.
Balay didn’t take it too seriously at the time.
When it comes to the crossbow troops, looking at all the forces in the entire coalition, no one is stronger than the ones from Copperhearth Castle!
This also gave Balai a very deep understanding of the crossbow unit.
Experts look at the door, while laymen look at the excitement.
Don't look at the shooting tactics of the crossbow troops. They only need to alternately shoot row after row and rotate continuously. In fact, this also requires a lot of skills and experience.
From the continuous attacks formed by the smooth switching of the crossbowmen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is not difficult to see that this unit is well-trained.
After watching for a while, Balai turned around and walked towards the top of the wall.
“This battle has just begun, won’t the general take a look anymore?”
"No need."
Balay is too experienced in fighting greenskins. He simply visually inspected the size of the greenskins, and then confirmed the specifications of the Great Zhou troops, as well as the combat power displayed, and With Shi Lei's command methods, Balai can basically confirm that the Zhou troops can resist this wave of green skin invasion.
As the commander-in-chief of the dwarf army, he cannot stay here forever. After basically confirming the situation here, he naturally has to return to his post quickly.
The facts did not exceed Balai's expectations. The first defensive battle that Zhou fought after coming to Copperhearth Castle was generally considered a near miss.
The changes in the mountain environment on the Copperfurnace Castle side made the Zhou troops slightly acclimatized. However, relying on the advantage of Muzhu's cooperation with the blasting vehicle at the beginning, coupled with Shi Lei's timely adjustments, the army was able to They have successfully overcome their past.
With the retreat of the green-skinned troops, a round of defensive battle came to an end temporarily.
“This battle was so beautiful!”
After the war, Wojin arrived at Dazhou’s camp almost immediately, looking quite excited.
He had to admit that before this battle, he felt a little unsure.
After all, from Woking's perspective, although Dazhou's troops have many experiences in dealing with small groups of green-skinned troops, they have never proven themselves in large-scale wars.
But now, Wo'jin's doubts have been completely dispelled.
What followed was a sense of pride that said, "I have really good eyesight."
In comparison, Shi Lei's overall performance was much calmer. He even didn't put his energy on Wo Jin at all, but was thinking about another thing.
"Lord Wojin, do you think this wave of greenskins retreated too simply? Or are they always like this in the battle here?"
In Shi Lei's impression Here, the greenskins' attacks are famous for their tenacity, and can even be said to be entangled. How could the greenskins, with their tenacious vitality and strong recovery ability, retreat so easily?
At this moment, after hearing Shi Lei's words, Wo Jin, who was very excited just a moment ago, quickly frowned after being slightly stunned.
"Your Excellency Shi Lei, what do you mean?"
"I suspect that the greenskins will launch an attack tonight!" Without hiding anything, Shi Lei directly expressed his suspicion.
Wo Jin was shocked.
"I'm going to find Uncle Balai!"
Wojin, who had just arrived at the Dazhou camp, heard this and immediately rode on the wild boar without waiting for Shi Lei to say anything. The pig didn't stop. rushed to the rear camp.
A round of defensive battle has just ended. At this moment, Bale is dealing with post-war work. At the same time, he is thinking about how to talk to Zhou about gunpowder after finishing these tasks. matter.
In the end, Wojin rushed in so hurriedly. Fortunately, he was Balai's nephew and the youngest son of the King of Copperforge. Otherwise, such a charging method would definitely be killed by Balai's soldiers. Fork down.
"Uncle Balai!"
Listening to the noisy movement, Balai frowned and looked over.
"I have told you many times, don't always be so reckless!"
But Wojin was in no mood to care about this at the moment, and quickly conveyed Shi Lei's words to Ba Lai.
After listening to what Wojin conveyed, Balai's face also darkened.
The long battle with the greenskins made his nerves a little numb. Now that Shi Lei said this, he reacted quickly.
In the past, when the dwarves and the greenskins fought, everyone had night vision, so it really didn't matter day or night.
But the situation is different now. The Dazhou army is mainly composed of human soldiers, and human soldiers do not have night vision.
If the greenskins noticed the changes in their defense line during the daytime attack and quickly made targeted adjustments, then the ensuing battle may be difficult for the Zhou soldiers. It will become more difficult.
Of course, they can’t be careless!
“Pass my order, arrange for the soldiers to rest before dark, and strengthen the garrison after dark to prevent the greenskins from attacking after dark!”
"Yes!"
At the same time, Shi Lei, who was aware of this problem at the Da Zhou camp, also made the same arrangement.
Compared to dwarves with night vision, the battle after nightfall will be a greater test for their Zhou troops. For this reason, they must also recharge their batteries in advance.
At the same time, according to his speculation, if this wave of greenskins really launches a night attack, it must be directed at their Zhou troops. By then, this part of their defense line will definitely be attacked. !
Thinking of this, he really had to make some preparations quickly before it got dark.
For example, he had to arrange some city defense resources.
With this thought in mind, Shi Lei quickly found Wo Jin again.
In fact, he wanted to say it before, but Wo'jin ran too fast, leaving him no time to speak.
The arrangement of city defense resources is different from the previous building materials and militia. This is military material. Even he cannot mobilize it at will. He must obtain permission from his uncle Balai.
For this reason, Wojin also directly acted as a microphone for both sides, and became busy between the camps...
