Chapter 1565: coping with siege

As soon as he found the enemy, Ezio sent people to report to the marching base camp through the forum. Under his command, the Twin Griffin quickly scouted the number and distribution of enemies around the marching column.

Judging from the results, the situation is very pessimistic...

When Ezio led the enemy to distribute information, jumped directly from the Twin Griffin, and used the skills of the sky knight to arrive at the base camp where the temporary military tent had been set up, it was already the first time the three enemies saw the enemy. Hours later.

It took so much time for no reason, just because there were too many enemies and the distribution was too wide. During the scouting process, Ezio also has regular reports.

With every "investigation in progress" report and part of the investigation results being sent to the old Duke Kawi, the mood of the officers in the base camp also dropped a bit.

During the reconnaissance, it means that the Twin Griffin has not yet seen the whole picture of the enemy. And some of the information sent back through the forum in the early stage is enough to make the most determined fighters break out in a cold sweat.

Faced with such a disadvantage, it is impossible for a person to have no emotions at all. The only difference is that this emotion will become a help or resistance to action.

Some people who could be selected into the base camp by the old Lord Kavi may have unique personalities, but none of them will be defeated casually.

So everyone is waiting for exact information. Not only the Twin Griffin, but also the airships around the base camp have received the same order to investigate the enemy's situation! The army where the base camp was located stopped advancing and turned to a defensive posture.

Ezio's Twin Griffin is the fastest, and the Arcane Eye, which has been revised many times, has the best detection ability of all airships. So he was also the first person to bring back the complete information, and immediately projected it in the military tent of the base camp.

However, after looking at the distribution and number of enemies on the map, and even a few recent photos of the enemies, the silence of the crowd escalated into a deadly atmosphere.

It is true that there are short individuals among half-orcs, but these thin half-orcs will have some special skills to survive in this race that grew up in a harsh environment.

However, the person whose height is about the waist of a normal person and who is as strong as a stone is definitely not a half-orc, but another mainstream race in the Lost Land-dwarves. But of course the dwarves on the surface cannot mix with demons and half-orcs. These dwarves must be close relatives of the surface dwarves who live underground, the notorious gray dwarves.

Uncivilized humans among humans are called barbarians, uncivilized elves among elves are wood elves belonging to the world tree, and uncivilized goblins have no aliases, but they are definitely the most unpopular Homo sapiens creatures.

It can be seen from this that uncivilized ethnic groups are not necessarily synonymous with primitive and barbaric, but compared with their culturally prosperous counterparts, these uncivilized tribes appear to be relatively backward. Being backward means that they may maintain some primitive vices.

Gray dwarves are the entire dwarf group, classified in the uncivilized part. These short, short-tempered people didn't mean to deliberately live in the underground world; they just occupied one vein after another and refused to leave until they had dug out all the resources.

The dwarves on the surface know how to use trade to exchange what they need with other races, and because of the need for trade, their contact with other races is relatively gentle. Therefore, in the choice of settlement, it is not blindly choosing a location close to the mine veins, but more consideration will be given.

However, the gray dwarves are more accustomed to plundering for their needs other than various minerals.

Although robbery or all kinds of abduction and deception are nothing new in the Lost Land, the entire ethnic group has such a virtue, and there are indeed not many people who can accept it. Therefore, the gray dwarves were united by the human world, and they were firmly pressed down in the underground world, unable to make any big waves.

Now such enmity can be regarded as allowing the gray dwarves to find the most suitable time to explode!

In addition to the scalp-numbing forces encircling him, Ezio also found many places, and directly hit the troops hiding underground and walked out one by one.

They didn't know that these were temporarily dug underground caves for hiding soldiers, or they were simply the entrances and exits of the underground world. Or maybe there is indeed an underground world under this land, but these entrances and exits are newly dug.

All these prove that the gray dwarves are indeed outstanding in digging pits. And it also pointed out a blind spot of airship detection—underground.

When a group of young staff officers angrily criticized the heavily relied on airship troops for failing to discover the enemy underground, Ezio laughed angrily.

He slammed his fist on the marching table, and the temporary table jumped and became crooked. Some people wanted to curse, but when they looked over, they realized that the person in front of them was not a soldier sent out to investigate, but a man with the title of general.

In particular, he is still the one who can defeat the strong airship alone without dying, which proves that he has at least one of the two items of good luck or strong strength. Not to mention that Aijiou himself is a martial artist, not a small officer who can be called around by others.

The "staff officer" who is lost in the land is far less authoritative than the staff officers under the system of a person's hometown after World War II established the headquarters of the independent country, and countries imitated their system. At this time, their identities can only be regarded as the staff of the old Kavi Duke, the commander of the coalition army.

Such a person, don't say he has no confidence in the face of the generals of the frontline troops. If he was killed for offending the other party, maybe old Kavi would not even say a word.

This group of young people may not all be from the Gwana Empire, but they are all recommended, or discovered by the old Kavi himself, a group of young people with flexible minds.

Their wish is to be assigned to the front line and lead a team to make great achievements. Staying in the base camp as a staff officer is just a way to show one's ability.

Of course, it is impossible for such a person to offend a powerful general. Even though this general is younger than them, he can't help but really be able to fight!

Commanding a squadron under Ezio was one of the best places in their eyes. Because they were trapped in the siege, they were a little emotional and quickly recovered their composure after the silent warning given by such a person. Everyone began to discuss various possible developments.

It is impossible to attack. Talking about eating the scattered opponents one by one before the enemy completes the encirclement net, this kind of opinion is like treating soldiers as perpetual motion machines with unlimited physical strength.

March fast, break the enemy, then march fast, break the enemy again. This kind of behavior has to be repeated several times, and it has to be completed within a day to defeat enemies that are several times larger than themselves and have the intention of encircling them. This is impossible in this era of cold weapons that walk on two legs.

Therefore, the Chinese army led by the old father-in-law Kavi actually had only two choices. One defends, the other breaks through.

Breakthroughs can be divided into two directions. One is to charge forward while the departing troops join up in an attempt to regain numerical superiority. The troops in front were only a day away from him. If they forced the march to cooperate with them to slow down, they would not be unable to catch up.

Even if there is an enemy blocking in the middle, there is still a chance to cooperate with the previous troops to launch a pincer attack and defeat the enemy.

The other direction is to retreat, retreat to the supply camp, or even retreat to the defense line in the south of the Fengdi Mountains. But it is difficult to achieve this intention.

Returning to the supply camp, even if you don't consider the enemy preventing you from retreating, so what if it takes more than a day to return to the camp? The defensive operation of the supply camp was not complete, at best it was just a transfer station, not a fortress.

As for crossing the mountains and retreating to the south of the mountains, that would be even more ridiculous. With most of the troops in the north of the mountain, should the commander-in-chief run away first? If this came true, then he would not have to lead troops to fight in the future.

So no matter how eloquent the young staff members were, in fact, there were only two options for the old Duke Kavi. First, rush forward; second, defend on the spot.

In addition to deciding the movement of the Chinese army, the old Lord Kavi also quickly issued orders to other troops. Everyone was given a warning, and they were asked to investigate their surroundings to confirm the enemy's situation.

And the troops closest to him ordered them to turn around and merge with their own.

The reason not to order all the troops back is because it is better to trust the commander of each unit than to throw all the troops out of step and let them fall into the enemy's trap. The previous warnings are enough, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu. com does not need random orders to make everyone at a loss.

Although the enemy's layout is very similar to the previous defeat of the southern front of the Suritang Empire. Lure the enemy deep, and then surround and annihilate them. But in the eyes of the old Kavi, there is still a fundamental difference.

In the previous big defeat, the coalition forces of the Southern Front actually hoped that the main force of the two Khans of the Suritang Empire would pinch the enemy, and they themselves just took advantage of it.

Unexpectedly, King Khan's main force did not move, and his group of miscellaneous troops became the main target of the enemy. It was only then that they were beaten with staring eyes, and few survivors escaped.

However, this time the army led by the old Lord Kavi is the main battle army composed of the Gwana Empire as the backbone. The strength is not the same as that of the miscellaneous army that was defeated in the original battle.

To put it simply, although he is not in the regular army of the empire, the old Kavi still has the confidence to touch the enemy. Even if the people he recruited into the central army are not all strong enough to defeat one hundred, they must not be underestimated by the enemy.

So he quickly determined the policy. Considering the results of the surrounding terrain detected by the Twin Griffin, there is no terrain that is conducive to defense, so they simply don't run. Everyone defends on the spot and builds a position.

Instead of wasting energy and marching forcefully, and then engage the enemy, count on being able to quickly defeat the opponent, and then join other troops. It's better to turn yourself into a bait-like existence to attract the enemy, and then let other troops eat it from the outside.

In short, it is not to fight field battles with the enemy. Under the condition of preparation, the old Kavi is confident to deal with enemies that are several times larger than himself.

Although the airship troop did not find the enemy's hidden whereabouts, it was already a great achievement to be able to discover the opponent's encirclement network early. If the enemy is not detected until it comes into view, it's really too late.

Now, there is still a chance!
