Valon: Even a supporting character can change his fate.
Chapter 646 Play the long game and catch big fish
"So now can you tell me why you deliberately let those people leave?"
When Thorn led his men to launch a feint attack to attract attention, the Lich anticipated that the other party might be planning to cause trouble and had made preparations early on.
The fact was just as the lich expected. The adjutant led five people and wanted to break out of the encirclement.
The lich would naturally not sit idly by. It can be said that with the lich's strength, as long as she took action, she could kill these six people in an instant and completely cut off their possibility of escape.
Just as the lich was about to attack, Wolfe stopped him.
Because of Wolfe's interruption, the lich missed the opportunity to stop them from leaving.
Facing the lich's question, Wolfe said calmly, "It is not the same to be on guard against thieves for a thousand days. The capital has already known about our existence. Instead of passively defending and waiting for the next wave of attack from the capital, it is better to use these 200 people as bait to force the capital to continue to send more troops here, and then we will ambush and kill them halfway."
"I have to say, you are really ruthless."
"I'll take this as a compliment. The royal family killed my entire family. In return, I'm going to make them lose even more."
"You can now take action to clean up all those remnants of the defeated army. Remember, don't kill the leader. Keeping him in your hand can be regarded as a trump card."
"okay, I get it."
Although this kingdom's army was elite, they had consumed a great deal of their physical strength in the successive sieges. Not only were they physically injured, but their morale was also at a low point.
The lich led all the undead under his command and rushed out in droves. They had no way to deal with it and could only fight back. However, in front of the lich's ice magic, the armor on their bodies could only play a very limited role.
Every time the lich attacks, a soldier loses his life.
In the end, except for Thorn who was captured alive, all the others in the army were killed, their weapons and equipment were confiscated, and their bodies were transformed into undead.
The kingdom's army suffered a setback this time. After the adjutant goes back and reports the matter, the capital will definitely send more troops to encircle and suppress them, and may even unite with several nobles to form a so-called coalition army.
The strategy of closing the door and beating the dog, catching the turtle in the jar that we used last time was indeed very effective, but this tactic can only be used once. Once the other party is prepared, it will not work the second time.
Since unconventional methods don't work, let's just fight head-on.
The Lich dispersed all the skeleton soldiers and reoccupied the deserted towns one by one, while also asking them to prepare as many falling rocks and rolling logs as possible.
Even if the kingdom's army came, if they wanted to advance they would have to break through the towns occupied by the undead like pulling out nails.
You know, for the defenders, relying on solid city walls and falling rocks and rolling logs, they have an absolute advantage over attackers and defenders.
What? What if the Kingdom Army chooses not to attack the city but to bypass it?
It's easy. As long as the enemy dares to ignore the undead defenders in the city and bypass these towns, the undead inside will come out in full force and attack the kingdom army from behind when the enemy is confronting head-on.
As long as the Kingdom Army believes they can fight on two fronts, they can try one of them.
Moreover, these towns can not only greatly consume the manpower of the kingdom’s army, but also slow down their marching speed, providing time for preparation for subsequent plans.
At this time, the army of zombies led by Bai was getting closer and closer to this side. The Lich naturally continued to slaughter human villages and towns alone, reducing potential enemies while also replenishing troops.
As for Wolfe, he also has his own things to do.
After the lich left, Wolf immediately gathered a group of people and asked them to load the food onto the carts and go with him.
Deep in the jungle.
"You want me to attack the Kingdom Army? Are you stupid or am I stupid?"
Wolf stood still, and the guy standing in front of him and talking was nearly three meters tall, with hard muscles under his dark green skin, two stone throwing axes on his waist, a nose as long as a goblin, and camouflage painted with blood on his face.
This guy was none other than the ruler of this forest, the jungle troll leader Gu. Behind him were more than thirty jungle trolls, but compared to Gu, these jungle trolls were much shorter.
Wolfe came to find this guy specifically for one purpose, which was to ask him to lead his jungle trolls to attack the Kingdom Army from one side when the Undead were fighting the Kingdom Army.
But as soon as he expressed his idea, he was rejected by Gu the next moment.
Although these trolls are tall and strong, the weapons in their hands are really poor. Not only do they have no armor, but the weapons they use are all stone throwing axes and other throwing weapons.
It's okay to let them attack unarmed human civilians, and they can fight even if they encounter human mercenaries, but if the opponent is replaced by an organized human army, or a fully armed kingdom army, it will be no different from committing suicide.
"Haha, stupid human, do you really think I'm stupid? Instead of dealing with the human army, I might as well seize your food carts and stew you guys and eat your meat without anyone noticing."
After Gu finished saying this, the jungle trolls behind him immediately lost their composure, rubbing their hands together, ready to rush forward and capture the beast at the boss's command, and enjoy a delicious feast.
But facing Gu's naked threat, Wolfe was not panicked at all, and said calmly, "I thought you were so smart, but it seems that you are no different from those stupid beasts."
"What did you say!"
Wolfe's words immediately made Gu really angry. His huge body came in front of Wolfe, and the oppressive feeling was needless to say.
But Wolfe pretended not to notice it and continued, "How could I dare to bring a few people to you without any backup plan? If you really dare to attack me, the undead will come and kill you and your people."
Gu was about to speak, but before he could finish his words, Wolfe seemed to know what he was going to say and spoke first, "Don't think I'm trying to scare you. The Kingdom Army was just defeated by us. Even if they can make a comeback, it will take time. Do you think you can hold out until the Kingdom Army arrives?"
Wolfe's words were a sure win. The undead made quite a noise. Although Gu did not see with his own eyes that the undead defeated the kingdom's army, before that, he had sent people to investigate for the safety of the tribe.
That terrifying number was definitely not something that their small tribe of more than 30 people could resist.
Gu didn't dare to gamble, let alone gamble with the safety of the entire tribe.
