Chapter 493 - 493 81 A Major Victory in Strategic Terms_3

493: Chapter 81, A Major Victory in Strategic Terms_3 493: Chapter 81, A Major Victory in Strategic Terms_3 You must be aware too, the combat strength of the Human Knight Corps, though somewhat weaker than us, has been almost compensated by their advantages in weaponry and equipment.

Even those Human cavalry, under the influence of the Knight Corps, can inflict considerable casualties on us.

I will take care of explaining things to the Imperial Court, they will not blame you for the defeat this time, but I hope you will take this as a warning and put away your undeserved arrogance.

Always keep in mind, our enemy is not weak slimes, but the overlord who dominates the Continent of Aslante.

While the enemy is powerful, the valiant Bimon….”

Whether it’s reprimanding his subordinate commanders or lifting spirits, Prince Butzweig is giving his all now.

Although he speaks lightly of taking care of the Imperial Court, the Orc Empire is ruthless and the internal competition within the Bimon Tribe is no less intense.

Having suffered such a major defeat, his competitors who are looking for an opportunity to undermine him definitely will not give up.

If it weren’t for the current state of the entire army isolated and unsupported, his command would likely be removed.

His reason tells him that if he does not achieve any distinguished performance in the coming period, he will suffer greatly when he gets back.

“Your Highness, based on the current situation, this expedition against the Moxi Duchy might barely achieve its initial goals.

What if we send people to contact the forces of all paths, invite them to move south to join us, and take on the Warhammer Kingdom together?”

Clark suggested.

As a strategist, his destiny is tied with Prince Butzweig.

If anything happens to his superior, he will also be unlucky.

Given the discrimination of the Orc Royal Family to their vassal races, it is not easy to have a leader like Prince Butzweig who is willing to listen to advice.

Even the idea of changing doors does not seem possible.

“It’s too late.

If our military strength hasn’t been damaged yet.

Inviting forces to take on the Warhammer Kingdom together would have been a good strategy.

At this stage, even if we can unite the armies, we would not have much say.

Even if we achieved a major victory in the Warhammer Kingdom, it would hardly make up for the negative impact of this defeat.

The only path left to us is to continue south to destabilize the hinterland of the Human Race.

The Human Race is not very strong in the Northern Continent, besides Alpha Kingdom, Warhammer Kingdom, and Moxi Duchy, the rest are all small nations.

With the forces we have at hand, we can cause great chaos.

Duke Daniel has already set an example for us, all we have to do next is follow his example.

Give the order, from now on, any Human villages or small towns we encounter are to be destroyed, with all serfs and civilians living on this land to be driven out.

We need a refugee crisis, a large-scale one that can shake the rule of the Human Race in the north!”

Stated Prince Butzweig indifferently.

If he wants to turn the tide in a desperate situation, he needs to employ unexpected tactics.

Following conventional tactics, no matter how he performs next, it would be difficult to gain achievements that can cover up the previous defeat.

“Your Highness, it’s not difficult to provoke a refugee crisis and disrupt the states of the Human Race, but solely based on this, I’m afraid it will still be difficult to explain to the Imperial Court.

Unless we can spread the chaos to the Central Region of the Continent, effectively weakening the war potential of the Human Race.

But…”

The middle-aged general was interrupted by Prince Butzweig’s wave of hand before he could finish.

Spreading the chaos to the Central Region of the Continent is not that easy.

The Human kingdoms in the Central Region aren’t fools.

They will likely mobilize their troops to attack before our forces get close.

Having just suffered a defeat at the hands of the Human cavalry, no Bimon dares to guarantee that this half-destroyed army of ours can withstand an all-out attack by a kingdom.

“The refugee crisis doesn’t necessarily have to reach the Central Region of the Continent, driving refugees into Alpha Kingdom is also the same!

Of course, if the scale of the refugee crisis is large enough to cause trouble for the various nations in central region, that would be even better!”
