Chapter 1170 Not Like Humans
After reading the report sent back by Shi Lei, Zhou Xu immediately responded and sent another giant eagle knight on standby in the capital to the front line.
At the same time, on the Copperforge front line...
After experiencing that night's night attack, the greenskins did not make any move throughout the day the next day, until late at night. , along with the shouts of 'enemy attack', the greenskins launched another night attack.
After a whole day's rest, the soldiers were in good condition.
After hearing the enemy attack, Shi Lei immediately put on his armor and climbed onto the wall. Needless to say, the greenskins were definitely coming for them again.
Although yesterday's night attack not only failed to achieve good results, but the dwarves even took advantage of the opportunity, causing them many casualties, the greenskins did not seem to change their thinking about the night attack.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the Green Skin’s idea.
As long as the Zhou troops are still there, they will be affected by vision problems at night.
If the previous war between the Greenskins and Copperforge was almost the same regardless of whether it was day or night, then the arrival of the Great Zhou troops, which did not have night vision, would , which will make the greenskin troops' offensive more advantageous after dark.
Of course, after suffering the losses in the battle last night, tonight, the greenskins obviously did not dare to repeat yesterday's operation.
While giving enough troops to the main battlefield to ensure the stability of the battle, we launched an offensive towards the defense line where the Da Zhou troops were located, trying to open up the situation by breaking through the defense line here.
However, the total strength of the greenskins is undoubtedly limited, and the dwarves of Copperforge are not vegetarians. They must form a suppressive force to ensure that they cannot directly launch a counterattack like they did last night, giving them If you bring casualties, you will have to use heavy troops!
But in this way, the troops that can be left on the battlefield of Da Zhou will inevitably be reduced, and the pressure that Da Zhou's troops need to bear will naturally decrease accordingly.
“Compared with last night, Dazhou’s troops are more adapted to night operations.”
Standing on the wall of the defense line next door, Balai, who still came to check the battle situation out of caution, couldn't help but sigh like this after seeing the performance of the Zhou troops next door.
The accumulation of experience and the reduction of pressure, two factors combined into one, made the Dazhou team perform better this night than before.
However, Shi Lei still has no intention of using too much force. He only focuses on holding the defense line and everything will be fine, and leaves other matters to the dwarf troops.
It just so happens that the greenskins still like to launch attacks at night, so they have even more reasons to be unable to defend themselves.
A battle like this lasted for a whole week, which made Shi Lei clearly feel the greenskins' purpose. The opponent wanted to crush them through continuous night attacks.
But the reality obviously did not go as the greenskins expected, and the performance of the Great Zhou army was still stable.
This has made Wojin quite embarrassed recently. After all, he had tried his best to persuade his father and uncle Balai to form an alliance with Zhou Dynasty, and asked Zhou Dynasty to send reinforcements to support them.
The performance of Da Zhou in front of him undoubtedly fully proved how wise his decision was at that time.
Standing on the wall of the next war zone, looking away from the Great Zhou defense line, Balai was speechless as he looked at his nephew with a sullen expression beside him.
After the green-skinned army retreated, Balai frowned the entire way back to the rear camp, as if he had a heavy heart.
"Uncle Balai, what are you worried about?"
In Wo'jin's opinion, there is nothing worth worrying about recently. It can even be said that it is quite the opposite. They should celebrate.
But Balai’s brows furrowed even more tightly.
“As a human soldier, don’t you think the performance of Dazhou soldiers is a bit too strong?”
It’s not that Balai has any opinions on humans. As reinforcements, he hopes that Dazhou soldiers The stronger Zhou's troops are, the better, but it's not like he has never seen humans before. The strength of this race is there in itself.
Take the human countries in the previous coalition forces. They essentially cannot withstand such high-frequency and high-intensity battles. Once they encounter such a battle, their only way is to rely on their huge group size to continuously rotate , allowing the soldiers time to breathe and recuperate. Balai doesn't think there is any problem with this. After all, being particularly fertile and having a large population is one of the advantages of human beings.
The combat intensity displayed by the Zhou soldiers this week was completely beyond Balai's imagination.
As the son of the king, Wojin would have to lead troops sooner or later. Therefore, with the mentality of cultivating the opponent, Balai also expressed his thoughts and then asked Wojin for his opinion.
“Maybe it’s because they are well-trained and strong-willed?”
Wojin, who said this, was a little lacking in confidence.
But Balai shook his head.
“The soldiers of Dazhou are indeed well-trained and tenacious, but this still cannot explain the intensity they showed this week.”
It is no exaggeration to say that their performance It simply refreshed Balai's understanding of human troops.
It was a new day, it was still not bright yet, and the shout of ‘enemy attack’ once again spread throughout the entire camp.
Shi Lei woke up from his sleep. The fatigue accumulated from commanding the battle last night and the lack of sleep made him feel a little dazed at the moment.
“Bring me a basin of cold water.”
Cold water in winter is no different from ice.
Cold water slapped on his face, stinging his cheeks and causing Shi Lei to wake up.
During this process, the soldiers on the side reported the situation to Shi Lei as quickly as possible.
After listening to the report, Shi Lei woke up and quickly figured out what tricks the greenskins were playing.
“In the past week, the greenskins have been attacking in the middle of the night and resting during the day. They have maintained this rhythm to paralyze us. After a long time, we will relax after fighting the battle at night. Start to rest, and then they suddenly come back to attack."
At this point, Shi Lei couldn't help but say "tsk tsk".
It is not difficult to see from this that there is also someone on the greenskin side who knows how to cause trouble.
“Cheer up!”
Putting on his winter clothes and armor, Shi Lei climbed up the wall and started mobilizing loudly.
"I know everyone is tired after the battle at night, but the same goes for greenskins! Greenskins are also made of flesh and blood, and they will also feel tired!"
< br>"Before, they only dared to launch offensives at night because we did not have night vision, which would give them an advantage. But even so, they failed to break through the line of defense stationed by our great Zhou!"
"And now! It's already half daylight. Without the influence of vision, we will only be stronger! Let those stupid greenskins see the power of our Zhou soldiers!!"
Many years After leading the troops down, Shi Lei became more mature, and so did his words. He completely lost the embarrassment he had when he was young, even when he mobilized the entire army and didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Shi Lei pulled out his saber and shouted...
"For the Emperor!"
"For the Emperor!!!"
