Chapter 191: Anticipate the Enemy's Momentum and Ambush the Enemy
As long as the two sides meet, there is no doubt that the battle will break out directly!
……
Temporary base for human reinforcements.
At this time, Jiang Yu and a group of people gathered in a tent to discuss the next countermeasures.
Nearby, Fang Heng and many other lords were also there.
After all, without them, Jiang Yu would not be able to command the soldiers under their command.
Of course, they currently have no say or command.
Yang Quan had already woken up by now. He sat in the corner with a sneer on his face and whispered:
"I want to see how you can use 100,000 people to fight against 400,000 people..."
Of course, Jiang Yu didn't care about the whispers. He looked at Meng Gong in front of the map:
"Meng Gong, what countermeasures do you have?"
If Jiang Yu were to operate, he would only try to divide the enemies and defeat them one by one.
It's just that finding such an opportunity may not be easy.
Because the current situation is not like when he first encountered Mo Lan Shiyun.
He didn't have any super-large relics that could speed up the movements of 100,000 soldiers, and it was difficult for him to maneuver in this vast plain.
It would be better to say that the enemy has highly mobile troops like the Griffins.
Therefore, historians and military strategists on the human side believe that the tactics summarized in human history may not be effective when facing other races.
Because there are so many different races, their abilities are not the same.
In this situation, many tactics will fail.
Meng Gong said:
"If I were the enemy, then I would first have to find a way to stop us humans from escaping."
"They have the advantage, so they should lead the mobile force to pursue us and try to delay us while waiting for the follow-up team to follow up."
"And as far as I know, there is a race called griffins among the enemies. In this case... it would be better to prepare for air defense first."
"Air defense preparation?" Jiang Yu pondered.
indeed.
Griffins are more difficult to deal with.
In the defense of Territory 4399 a few days ago, he had a deep understanding of the griffin's attack.
"What if the enemy doesn't send anyone to chase us?" Jiang Yu asked.
"If the enemy doesn't chase us, then we've just wasted some time, no big deal."
"If the enemy doesn't come after us, then we should move together with their main force."
“That would be very disadvantageous to us.”
"But their collective movement speed is relatively slow, so we still have time to think of countermeasures." Meng Gong said reasonably, "In addition, in order to prevent the enemy from discovering our actions during reconnaissance, it is best to build air defense facilities somewhere else."
"For example, there is a hidden location behind our base. If the enemy comes, we can retreat there and lure them over."
"Okay, let's do it this way." Jiang Yu glanced at Fang Heng.
Fang Heng still knew when to advance and retreat, and immediately went down to ask his soldiers to build air defense facilities nearby.
that's it.
The first action of the 100,000 human reinforcements was to build air defense facilities.
Humans currently have quite a few air defense facilities.
Especially since this batch of human reinforcements all come from level 8 territory, so they are all level 8 as well.
They had been unable to defeat the enemy before simply because there were too many of them.
Even if the number of enemies is equal to theirs, they can still defeat them.
The level 8 territory has apparently developed many anti-aircraft weapons.
For example, a large crossbow arrow at a high angle.
Super high towers and arrow towers.
And prepare rockets in advance, and then let archers shoot rockets into the sky.
Of course, this is still somewhat crude.
Fang Heng's 20 reinforcements were gathered temporarily. Due to the urgent situation at the trial site, they did not carry heavy weapons.
Otherwise, the level 8 territory should have developed anti-aircraft guns, and they can bring anti-aircraft guns to provide support.
But Jiang Yu can ask Lu Ban to make some temporary modifications.
For example, a slingshot at a high angle. Although this makes it difficult to move the slingshot, it doesn't matter.
As long as we can defeat those griffins.
The next few hours.
Behind the base, which is between the base and the 4399 territory, Jiang Yu had many air defense facilities set up.
Since the super-high towers and arrow towers could not be built in a short period of time, they gave up these two facilities.
And in this case.
Jackal has led 50,000 griffins to the vicinity.
He rode on a griffin and frowned as he looked at the human reinforcements stationed in the distance.
"Something's wrong. Why didn't the humans run away?" Jackal frowned and muttered to himself.
He understood that in the face of the powerful forces of the Griffins, humans would still have a chance of survival if they chose to escape.
But they chose to stick to it, and there must be a reason behind it.
The griffin he was riding spoke up:
"I think it's to protect the 4399 territory. Jiang Yu is quite important to humans."
Jackal nodded and said:
"Goli may be too cautious, but to be on the safe side, let's have someone investigate."
So, Jackal sent out several elite Griffin tribe members to investigate.
These scouts were agile and had excellent flying skills, and they soon disappeared into the sky.
As the base for the human reinforcements was built temporarily, its defense facilities were not perfect, with only a few sentry towers standing alone.
The soldiers on the watchtower spotted the griffin scouts.
But they knew that their weapons were powerless against these aerial beasts, and they could only watch them circling overhead and then turning back to the Jackal.
"Lord Jackal, there are only a few sentry towers and arrow towers in the enemy's territory!"
"No ambush?" asked Jackal.
"Lord Jackal, no!"
"Very good!" Chai Feng was relieved, "Then let's just kill him!"
"If they see our scouts, the humans might try to escape. Now, attack immediately!"
That's the risk of sending out scouts.
Originally, if he didn't send them, these humans wouldn't see it and wouldn't react.
But now seeing that Jackal has sent out scouts, it might stimulate these humans and prompt them to make the decision to retreat!
Therefore, it is impossible for Jackal to wait here obediently for Goli to lead the army to arrive.
as predicted.
When Jackal led a legion of 50,000 griffins to the reinforcements' base, he found that the humans there were packing up and preparing to leave!
"Hmph, don't even think about leaving!" Jackal sneered, "Everyone listen up, kill!"
At his command, fifty thousand griffins swooped down towards the human soldiers below!
"Run!!!" A large group of soldiers fled to the rear.
"Chase! Don't let them get away!" Chai Feng ordered a pursuit.
So far, humans have behaved so naturally that he has not had any doubts.
however.
After he led the griffins to chase for a distance, he suddenly saw that there seemed to be something on the ground below.
He looked closely and saw the archers lined up neatly.
They all raised their bows towards the sky, as if aiming at them!
Not only that, a large number of catapults also projected huge stones at extremely high angles!
At this moment, Chai Feng was shocked.
This is... an ambush?!
Were they ambushed?
How can this be.
How could they have anticipated that they would send out the Griffin Legion? !
