Chapter 34 Battle of Gray City (4)
The gray dwarves' harassment tactics worked, seriously affecting the efficiency of the corpse collection team.
The Goblin Corpse Collection Team sent to the rear of the battlefield are all unclassified Goblins. Once these first-level gray dwarf warriors approach, these Goblins will definitely not be able to escape.
However, these gray dwarf warriors who were broken into pieces were not comfortable, because there were three hundred level three Goblin strong archers on the city wall aiming at them and shooting at them.
Every time a small team of Goblin corpse collectors was disrupted, at least five or six first-level gray dwarf warriors were shot to death.
Both sides are completely using the lives of their respective soldiers to execute orders.
But it’s clear who loses and who wins.
After a while, all the low-level goblins who had been collecting corpses for hundreds of years on the battlefield were killed by the gray dwarves.
And the five hundred first-level gray dwarf warriors who were reduced to pieces were all wiped out, and no one could escape the range of the three hundred and third-level goblin strong archers.
Robert stood in front of the army. After seeing that the opponent's corpse collection team was easily wiped out, his expression was not happy.
Why?
Because although the opponent's actions were stopped, our own side sacrificed a total of five hundred gray dwarf warriors!
The battle damage ratio reached a terrifying four to one!
What makes Robert most uncomfortable is that the corpse collectors sent by the enemy are all unqualified cannon fodder.
Exchanging the lives of five hundred first-level gray dwarf warriors for more than a hundred cannon fodder for the enemy was a huge loss.
"If the other party is after our soldiers' equipment, they should send an elite team with sufficient strength to quickly seize it. Why?"
This made Robert extremely confused and confused.
The main battlefield has now become a huge meat grinder.
A large number of second-level gray dwarves fell to the ground dead in battle. At the same time, a third-level bronze-clawed goblin was surrounded and killed by the gray dwarves with all their strength.
Both sides went crazy!
However, the goblins under Lan Feng's command have always won with numbers. I didn't expect that today's battle with the gray dwarves would be the other way around.
However, unlike the goblins, these elite gray dwarf warriors are just holding on to their mental thoughts. Once they let go of their suffocated breath and return to reality and see the corpses of their comrades and the same race all over the ground, they will probably...
You will feel deep fear.
And Robert also understood this, so he asked the five thousand gray dwarf archers to maintain the rhythm of archery and carry out long-range suppression.
Unfortunately, although there are many archers, most of the five thousand are gray dwarf archers of the first level, and there are only three to four hundred gray dwarf archers who have reached the second level.
The bows and arrows fired by the first-level gray dwarf archers are not powerful enough for the third-level bronze-clawed goblins. If they do not hit the vital parts, they will only cause damage to the level of breaking the skin.
In addition, the distance on the battlefield is too long, and not all first-level gray dwarf archers are sharpshooters. They can hit the enemy from a long distance. They are suppressed by the rain of arrows, and they hit the 'big tiger' blindly.
If it weren't for the three to four hundred second-level gray dwarf archers who tried their best to shoot arrows for long-range suppression, the gray dwarf side would have been overwhelmed by the one thousand and third-level bronze-clawed goblins.
Robert, who was looking worriedly at the situation on the main battlefield, glanced at the enemy's rear and took a deep breath.
The enemy sent out a large group of cannon fodder to collect corpses.
Deploy some archers to kill these cannon fodder?
"No, the first-level archers cannot shoot so far, not to mention that the cannon fodder is scattered. Although the second-level archers can accurately shoot these corpse-collecting cannon fodder, it will affect the situation on the main battlefield."
How many strong fourth-level gray dwarves will be sent?
"It won't work either. The enemy's archer will definitely take action when the time comes. No matter if a strong gray dwarf of the fourth or fifth level goes up, it will be a dead end."
After quickly calculating the pros and cons of a large number of ideas in Robert's mind, he was finally rejected one by one.
Robert, who looked ugly, suddenly looked at his herald,
"Is the Goblin Moonblade Ballista coming soon?"
"Come on, we are only one kilometer away from our army!" the herald quickly replied.
Robert took a deep breath and clenched his fists. He could feel that his palms were sweating at the moment.
In the end, his heart became cruel, his eyes gradually became cold, and he made a cruel decision.
"Order that, except for the five thousand archers, all other warriors will be divided into two parts to bypass the main battlefield and engage in a battle to seize the city!"
"Avar, after the ballista arrives, you will command the attack on the enemy and suppress the enemy's main battlefield."
"Yes, general!" the herald 'Avar' said quickly and firmly.
This is a gamble.
Bet, the 330-level elite archers on the enemy's city wall are the opponent's last trump card in defending the Dark City!
"The enemy has only one thousand and fifty third-level warriors exposed, and it is impossible for them to devote all their warriors to a dark city."
There are so many green-skinned creatures and they are so powerful. The territory they occupy must be quite large. Troops must be stationed in the territories, lairs, important strongholds, etc. they occupy, so they definitely cannot be in a small place.
A large number of elite troops were invested in the large city.
But all this was speculated by Robert himself based on common sense and experience, because he was afraid that these crazy creatures would not act according to common sense.
Once there is a third-level elite unit or a large number of first- and second-level units hidden and ambushed in the city, most of the gray dwarf warriors will probably have to deal with it here.
Because in extraordinary siege battles, it is difficult for the weak warriors on the disadvantaged side to escape.
Just like now, Robert doesn't want to fight the opponent at all. What he hopes most now is to cease fighting first, and then wait for the arrival of strong reinforcements and siege weapons before launching a siege battle with the enemy.
But the reality is that once he announces the order to retreat, the army will inevitably be crushed and scattered by the enemy's third-level warriors, and then allowed to be massacred by the enemy.
It would be feasible if the three thousand entangled second-level gray dwarf shield warriors were abandoned from the beginning in exchange for the retreat of the rest of the army.
But even if Robert were given the choice of starting over again, he would not make the choice to abandon his soldiers.
But now, Robert has invested more than 5,000 second-level gray dwarf shield warriors and all third-level elite warriors on the main battlefield, so it is even more impossible to abandon them in exchange for the safe retreat of the remaining less than 20,000 first-level warriors.
The strange movements of the Gray Dwarf army could be seen clearly by Aiolos on the wall of Gray City.
But Aiolos just watched indifferently as the gray dwarf army divided into two parts and bypassed the main battlefield without giving any orders.
Because now the commander of the battle in Dark City is Lan Feng himself.
In the Silver Gray City Castle in the Dark Region No. 6, on the soft blue animal skin bed, Lan Feng slowly opened his eyes, with a cruel smile on his lips,
"Took the bait."
