The Lord of the Worlds of Civilization

Chapter 1741, Declining Combat Power

The recent development of the civilization of the Ten Thousand Realms can be said to be progressing steadily, and the entire military force is gradually improving.

At the same time, on the other side, around Sea Area No. [-], in the face of the constant harassment from the combined Chinese fleet, the life of the murloc army in Pompeland and the combined Europa fleet is obviously not easy.

In order to cover the landing of the Europa United Army, this entire sea area not only needs to be strictly guarded, but at the same time, the sea traffic routes of their Europa camp will undoubtedly require a lot of sea troops to maintain.

Anyone can see that the fleet of the Celestial Dynasty is already completely eyeing their supply ships and troop transport ships.

Just recently, their supply ships and troop transport ships have been attacked twice in a row by the Chinese fleet hovering around the sea area. The attack, the scene was very chaotic for a while.

Just like the United Fleet of the Celestial Dynasty, facing the murloc army and the United Fleet of Europa, which was strictly defended, couldn't attack at all for a while, the same is true for the Europa camp.

At this time, the Celestial Dynasty Fleet was completely broken up into pieces, and they fought guerrilla warfare at sea, targeting their supply ships and troop transport ships.

Faced with this situation, even if the escort force is increased, it is difficult to avoid it.

Not to mention that once too many troops are deployed, their defensive strength on the No. [-] sea area will drop, and it will not be too good for the coveted Chinese United Fleet to take advantage of it.

Now turn the angle of view to land again. Taking advantage of the momentum of defeating the foreign combined fleet, in that wave, their Europa camp had tens of thousands of troops landed. Now the support troops have already launched a rapid march, planning to provide emergency support An army of dark elves trapped within the continent.

During this period, the dark elf army was undoubtedly being constantly besieged by the combined army of foreign countries.

Compared with the foreign coalition army, which has a huge advantage in troops, and even if one group dies, there will be a second batch to make up for it immediately, the dark elf army is too cheap.

Although there is still a strategic unit of the Hydra in hand, the overall strength of the entire army is estimated to be only about [-]% compared to its peak period.

The fundamental reason is that as the battle time prolongs, the dark elf mage troops are basically abolished because their mana has been exhausted one after another.

The Marauder Ballista of the Dark Elf Artillery Unit could not be used due to the lack of energy provided by the magic crystal.

In this way, the pressure on the battlefield is basically piled on Hydra and the front row troops.

The number of casualties in the front row was directly increasing. At the same time, Hydra was also exhausted of mana, and there was not even a drop of venom in its poison sac. Once on the battlefield, it could only fight hard with its physical strength.

But in the final analysis, there is a big gap in physical fitness between the monsters of the elven civilization and the behemoths of the orc civilization.

The fundamental reason is that the development panel of the orc civilization can provide a large number of strengthening buffs, which can almost strengthen the giant beast to the point of being like a Godzilla monster.

Therefore, in the same state, if you fight hand-to-hand, the monsters of the elf civilization players can't beat the behemoths of the orc civilization players without using any magic means.

In this way, Hydra's combat effectiveness at this time can be said to be greatly reduced. Facing the shelling of armor-piercing shells from the foreign combined fleet, it was extremely embarrassed.

At the same time, if the hydra is seriously injured during the battle, the dark elf army will directly let the dark elf mages perform blood therapy to treat it on weekdays.

But now, the dark elf mages can no longer cast spells, so it can be said that they are basically useless.

And the hydra itself does not have the perverted resilience like the orc civilization behemoth.

This made it more and more injured in frequent battles. Recently, the situation of the dark elf army can be said to be in a precarious situation.

Facing the offensive of the foreign coalition army, they retreated all the way. The territory that was originally captured by the four-way Europa army has already been handed over half of it.

Of course, during this period, the attack of the foreign coalition army was not all smooth sailing.

The Dark Elf army and the remaining forces on Europa's side were even more tenacious than they expected.

At the same time, since the outer sea area was captured by the Europa camp, this made the transportation and supply of their frontline materials a big problem.

Fortunately, they captured a large number of Philip Albert's cities along the way.

Although those cities have become a mess due to the war, they can still provide them with a lot of supplies under occupation.

At least so far, there are no major problems for the time being.

However, after thinking about it, their actions undoubtedly have to be accelerated, which is also the main reason why the offensive of the foreign coalition army has become more and more fierce recently.

Amidst the roar of artillery fire, another city occupied by the Europa United Army fell. Derk led the dark elf army under his command and the remaining human forces of Europa, withdrew from the city area as quickly as possible, and fled towards the rear.

Even after nightfall, he dared not stop at all.

Maintaining the state of marching in a hurry, after two days and one night of emergency evacuation, they dared to breathe a little sigh of relief.

Temporarily found a place to camp, they need to rest.

The previous battle had already made the soldiers very tired, and then they entered a state of rapid march. At this point, everyone has reached their limit and must rest.

In order to avoid revealing their location, they didn't dare to light a fire at all. After nightfall, the entire camp was almost completely plunged into darkness.

I was so tired that night, even Delk, who had been alert before that, fell asleep without paying attention.

By the time he woke up from his sleep, it was already dawn outside.

"Damn..."

Sitting on the simple quilt, Delk couldn't help stretching out his hands to rest his forehead. Although he slept all night, he still couldn't hide the tiredness on his face.

Just then, a soldier came in from outside.

"General, are you awake?"

"What time is it now?"

"It's almost noon."

After finishing speaking, the personal soldier looked at Delk's dignified expression, so he hurriedly said...

"General, please rest assured that the harpies have been on alert all along, and the enemy has not chased them down yet."

Delk nodded upon hearing this, and while he was slightly relieved, he spoke again...

"Don't be careless. Send the order down. After lunch, continue to evacuate. We have to evacuate to the next city quickly to obtain resources."

"Yes!"

Chapter 1742, Escape

After lunch, the army set off.

Due to the tight time right now, Delk stayed on the road for some things, and confirmed with his own soldiers while walking.

At this moment, he was confirming the casualties of his dark elf army.

Those numbers made Delk feel heavy. After confirming, he seemed to remember something and asked again...

"What about the human side? How about the casualties on the human side?"

The "human side" that Delk said refers to the remaining forces of the previous Europa army.

As they retreated all the way, many Europa garrisons stationed in various cities and fortresses also gathered one after another.

In the past, Derk, who was a dark elf, basically didn't care about the human army.

However, at this point in the battle, the strength of the dark elf army under his command has been greatly reduced due to attrition problems. However, on the other hand, the entire combat strength of the human army has remained quite stable.

It is no exaggeration to say that in recent battles, when the strength of the dark elves' army has plummeted, he has begun to rely on human troops for output, especially for long-range firepower. status.

In this way, facing the human army that has already been promoted to an important combat power, he naturally has to care about it.

And just as Delk was confirming these situations one by one, a harpy quickly flew towards this side in the sky.

"Report to the general, the traces of the foreign coalition army have been found in the rear!"

Delk, who heard this, had a look of shock on his face.

"What position?"

"They've just arrived where we camped last night."

Before leaving the camp site, just in case, Delk deliberately left a few harpies staring at him, just to see when the combined foreign army would catch up.

Considering the time it took for the harpies to travel, the combined army of foreign countries should have left that area long ago.

It was noon when they left, but now, the sun has set and the time is approaching evening, so I calculated the distance in my heart, it should be relatively safe, but I must not relax my carelessness.

"General, are you going to launch an attack?"

Undoubtedly, if the Harpy troops were allowed to attack from the air, it would more or less buy them some time.

However, acting rashly may also be counterproductive.

While thinking about it, Delk quickly said to the harpies...

"I will send a Harpy troop to go back with you. If the foreign coalition army has found your whereabouts, then launch an attack directly. If not, then quietly follow them and monitor."

"Yes!"

Delk's arrangement in this way naturally has his considerations.

If the other party didn't find the Harpy troops, if the Harpies were to launch an attack, wouldn't that be the same as telling the other party that the distance between them was not far?

At that time, once the coalition army of foreign countries chases after them furiously, their situation will not be good.

He would never do something like this to embarrass himself.

After the harpies flew away, Derk's eyes quickly fell on his own soldiers.

"Pass down the order to speed up the march, and at the same time, we will not set up camp tonight, and march overnight to try to distance ourselves from the foreign coalition army in the rear!"

"Yes!"

As the disadvantaged party, they are undoubtedly in a panic at the moment.

But as a veteran who has been on the battlefield for many years, Delk has not completely lost his composure.

At the same time, Delk at this time had to admit another advantage of the human army, that is the marching efficiency of the army!

Even among civilizations, the marching efficiency of human civilization ranks first, and their marching efficiency is due to various transportation vehicles!

Such as troop transport vehicles and motorcycle soldiers and so on.

At this moment, the foreign combined army is chasing and killing them with these technological vehicles.

In the case of sufficient fuel, the impact of physical problems on their marching efficiency can be said to be minimized at once.

Although the Dark Elf army also obtained a batch of human vehicles when they captured the city, the number was limited after all.

And now these vehicles are also used to transport heavy ordnance such as cannons and marauder ballistas, as well as dark elf mage troops who are basically incapable of fighting.

In other words, many soldiers still have to rely on two legs.

As we all know, the marching efficiency of an army does not depend on the fastest moving unit, but on the slowest moving unit.

In this way, their marching efficiency is slow, and there is absolutely no way to do it.

The night passed, from the defeat a few days ago to the present, the dark elf army and Europa soldiers who had only slept for one night, after another wave of marching all night, some of the energy that had finally recovered had a feeling of being beaten at this moment. The feeling of returning to the original shape.

Fighting against the wave after wave of exhaustion, looking at the dimly lit sky in front of him, and the distant sky already turning pale, Delk struggled to open his bloodshot eyes, Signal the army to stop to eat something, take a rest, and then continue to march.

After all, in their current situation, there is no room for them to stay in one place for too long.

Once they are caught up by the foreign coalition army, then according to their current situation, they are really finished.

They don't even need to fight. The mere appearance of the foreign coalition army can cause their morale to collapse immediately. The situation is already so bad.

After a short rest, it was another long day and night for the Dark Elf army and Europa soldiers. They stopped and rested several times on the way, but each time did not exceed two hours.

To be honest, the fatigue and pressure accumulated during this period of time are almost crushing them.

Until the harpies fly again...

After all, the foreign coalition army is not made of iron. Like the dark elf army, they just finished a tough battle a few days ago.

Now leading troops to chase and kill them, they chased fiercely, but failed to catch up with the army of dark elves.

Only when the other party fled away.

After that, the marching pace was gradually slowed down so that the soldiers under his command could adjust their state.

This gave the dark elves marching day and night a chance to distance themselves.

After confirming the information from the Harpy, Delk could be said to be greatly relieved.

Let the harpies continue to take turns to monitor, at least tonight, they can have a good sleep.

Chapter 1743, Soft Knife

For a period of time after that, for the dark elf army, it could only be described by the words 'collapse all the way'.

It was a typical example of defeat like a mountain. They couldn't stop the offensive of the foreign coalition army, and they were completely caught in a negative cycle of getting weaker and weaker.

Every time you retreat to a fortress or city, the first thing to do is to start gathering the resources in the fortress and the city.
