Chapter 510 - 510 88 Alien Version of Rifle_2

510: Chapter 88, Alien Version of Rifle_2 510: Chapter 88, Alien Version of Rifle_2 The more terrifying thing is that they have no choice.

If they don’t pivot their strategy now, they might not have the chance to do it in the future.

It’s not that they haven’t thought of holding out and waiting for reinforcements, but the horrific consumption of resources by the large army is a problem.

How to solve it?

“Your Majesty, this is the enemy’s sneaky trick.

They’re trying to keep us on the plains, to create an opportunity for their next attack on the western part of the kingdom.

If I guessed correctly, the real main target of the Orc Empire this time is us, the Moxi Duchy and the Alpha Kingdom are just being dragged into it!”

Prime Minister Guy said solemnly.

The strategy of the Orc Empire is definitely a disaster for the Warhammer Kingdom.

Becoming the main target of the enemy, the situation they will face next will become even more severe.

Realizing this, everyone started to reconsider their previous countermeasures.

Unfortunately, there are no regrets in this world.

After letting out a sigh, Joseph II slowly said, “Urge the Department of Foreign Affairs to press the Human Alliance.

We need reinforcements, reinforcement!

At the same time, strengthen our contacts with the Alpha Kingdom and Moxi Duchy.

Especially the Alpha Kingdom, they have already started a counterattack.

If we can persuade them to shift their front to the west, showing the intention to cut off the Orc’s supply lines and disrupt the Orcs’ strategic deployment, that would be even better.

Issue an order to let the Forty-first, Forty-third, Forty-sixth, and Forty-eighth army corps, to reinforce immediately….”

…

Moxi Duchy, Hudson, who is focused on stability, is not waiting for the enemy to take action.

While ordering the construction of defensive works, he began to actively seek opportunities.

According to the scout’s information, the southbound Orc Army has as many as eight hundred thousand troops, and there are as many as fifteen main elite legions.

From the data on paper, the Allied Human Army is at a clear disadvantage.

Now no one is restraining the rear of the Orcs, the Orcs can attack with full confidence.

The situation of the enemy being strong and us being weak also has advantages.

The most direct impact is that the criticism within the Moxi Duchy over Hudson’s position as commander in chief virtually disappeared overnight.

In front of survival, face is not worth mentioning.

Letting the Undefeated General be the commander in chief is the best choice to improve the chances of victory without increasing troop strength.

For the sake of winning the war, the Moxi people have also lowered their stance.

The once high and mighty nobles can now humble themselves and do the job of reconnaissance.

They were all forced out.

The Gryphon Cavalry had been consumed to the point where only the seeds were left.

Nobles with Flying Magical Beasts became the replacements.

Unfortunately, the number is too small, they can only focus on the movement of the main forces of the Orcs.

More local reconnaissance has to be done by ground scouts.

In order to improve efficiency, immediately pass on the information, all team leaders have been substituted with nobles owning magical beast mounts.

“The armies of the Top Five Orc Courts did not act together this time?”

Hudson asked in surprise.

“Yes, Your Excellency the Earl.

The Orc Army now split into five groups, coming from different paths.

The intervals between each enemy army are about thirty to fifty miles, which is about a day’s journey, probably for mutual support.

The enemy is very vigilant, the Hawkmen are constantly hovering in the sky, wind blowing and grass moving within tens of miles is hard to hide from their eyes.

…”

When a noble takes on the job of a scout, it’s different.

Not only can they bring back information but they can also analyze, filter, and extract useful information.

Unfortunately, this kind of luxurious “scout” is only temporarily useful in times of crisis.

Normally, if you treat the Noble Lord like this, they would revolt.

“This information is very important.

Viscount Kenny, you’ve worked hard this time!

Rest first, we need you to continue later.”

Hudson said politely.

After a brief adjustment, he has accepted the fact that the Orc army has split.

If the eight hundred thousand troops were to move together, the length of the team would probably be several tens of miles.

If the arrangement is a bit careless and they encounter ambushes from the human army, a tragic situation where the head and tail cannot take care of each other will occur.

Even if there are Hawkman scouts who can detect the enemy in advance, it’s troublesome to mobilize the army.

Even if everything goes smoothly, the time consumed by the army on the road will greatly increase.

After all, there has always been a rule in the military: the more troops, the slower the marching speed.

Against this backdrop, splitting troops is the best choice.

The interval between the five paths is so far away, that it’s entirely due to the terrible road conditions of the Moxi Duchy.

The distance between main roads suitable for large armies to advance is just like that.

It’s too late to open up new roads, unless they have the courage to abandon the main road and take the bypass, otherwise they have to accept it.

After marking the locations of the five main roads on the map, a group of high-ranking officers gathered around.

They carefully scrutinized the map, seeking strategies to defeat the enemy.

“Earl Hudson, the positions of the enemy’s five armies are too close, and the cavalry can reach there in one hour.

If we want to ambush them, unless we can end the battle in a short time, as soon as the battle becomes a standoff, the enemy will immediately cordon us off.

It seems that the enemy has anticipated our intention to ambush and has made preparations in advance.”

Count Martins said gloomily.

The absence of the opportunity to ambush, for the Allied Forces in an unfavourable situation, is undoubtedly bad news.

“His Excellency is right, with the enemy’s arrangement, it is very difficult to ambush.

However, no matter how difficult, that is also an opportunity.

As long as we can hide from the Hawkman scout, and ambush our troops in advance, we will have at least one and a half hours to fight.”
