Robert Smith, who was located on the same battlefield, soon received news from Charlie Crombell.

The situation there could be said to be much worse than he expected.

Of course, it seems that now is not the time for him to care about others.

After obtaining enough food from those big merchants in exchange for his title, his empire was finally able to survive this difficulty.

At the same time, the enemy force pressing on the eastern border of his empire cannot be ignored.

Now the troops have been assembled.

However, there were a large number of cavalry on the opposite side. As soon as his imperial army broke away from the fortifications, they would be attacked mercilessly by the enemy cavalry.

For this reason, Robert Smith naturally sent out dragoons and hussars from his empire to attack.

But the result was a disastrous defeat, and then, the opponent relied on its wind-like mobility to put him into a helpless state.

This resulted in his army being completely trapped within an eastern fortress and unable to get out.

But during this period, the opponent seemed to have no intention of attacking, which made Robert Smith fall into deep thought.

"First, they used an army to attack our rear, forcing Raymond and I to withdraw our troops to defend. Then, after we withdrew, we changed our tactics and turned to containment..."

After pondering for a while, Robert Smith couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

"So that's it. The main attack target on the other side is still Charlie. As for me and Raymond, that Chinese player just wants to contain us for the time being."

This feeling of being controlled by others was very unpleasant and made Robert Smith feel a little bad, but at the same time he had to accept this fact.

But no matter what, for now, the opponent has no intention of taking the initiative to attack, which is a good thing for him. Anyway, reinforcements will come in in more than a month. It is just right to maintain the status quo and maintain a stalemate until then.

Of course, this is limited to Robert Smith's own thoughts.

The current situation is not optimistic at all for Charlie Crombell and Raymond Southey.

His own civilization, the Western Border, was invaded and looted, and the border cities were in a mess. Raymond Soucy, who led his troops back to fight, naturally couldn't take this breath, and directly sent a large number of orcs to start a hunt in the Western Desert.

Over this period of time, he almost turned the entire desert upside down.

The Western Army of the All Realms Civilization is just hiding there, not disappearing from the world.

Faced with this kind of battle, in order to avoid exposing their resource supply points, John Sal and Du Yuanzhi finally decided to take the initiative and launch guerrilla warfare after a period of discussion.

At least the attention of the enemy orc army should be diverted away from the resource supply point.

At first, this matter naturally went extremely smoothly.

The appearance of the Western Army quickly attracted the attention of the enemy orc troops. The small groups of orc troops were no match for them. They were able to deal with them with ease. The attention of the enemy quickly

They were led in the opposite direction.

However, this state did not last long. As the whereabouts of the Western Army were exposed, Raymond Souci immediately began to assemble an army to attack.

At the same time, the armored beasts and giant eagles, which are behemoth-level units of the orc civilization, appeared one after another.

Those five armored beasts and two giant eagles were simply not something ordinary troops could deal with.

In this regard, Du Yuanzhi, who had already received the corresponding information, could be said to have changed his strategy immediately and chose evasive tactics.

Because as Robert Smith analyzed earlier, their fundamental purpose is to persuade them to retreat and to contain them. It is unnecessary to fight head-on, let alone fight an army that has sent out behemoth units.

.

However, even if the evasion plan was confirmed, facing the aerial vision of the enemy Yingren troops, it was not easy for the southern army to evade.

Raymond Souci even directly launched various outflanking and interception tactics, hoping to surround them in this desert.

Under the scorching sun, a battle began.

The eight-barreled Flame Dragon Cannon continuously fired into the sky. Among the Western Army, the only one that can suppress air units is the eight-barreled Flame Dragon Cannon in the hands of the dwarf soldiers.

Already.

During this period, without the fire suppression of the eight-barreled Flame Dragon Cannon, the battle on the ground undoubtedly became a little difficult to fight.

The five armored beasts ran wildly and charged towards the rifle phalanx of the Western Legion.

After confirming the battle situation, Du Yuanzhi frequently made adjustments and arranged various formations to deal with the enemy orc army.

It is completely conceivable that once a dense phalanx of rifles is collided head-on by an armored beast, it will inevitably cause heavy casualties, and this is undoubtedly a situation that Du Yuanzhi wants to avoid.

After receiving the order, the rifle phalanx retreated and fought, leading the enemy's armored beasts into the trap step by step.

The next second, with the giant hooves of the armored beast stepping down, a series of violent explosions suddenly sounded. While the dust was rising in the sky, it was completely different from the previous one. This wave of mine traps was quite clear against the running armored beast.

The beasts constituted an obstacle, at least the momentum of their charge was obviously affected, and they could no longer directly ignore the existence of mines like before.

There is no doubt that this is the latest improvement result of the Ordnance Research Department, a high-explosive mine!

Compared with the previous batch of landmines, the explosive power can be said to have been greatly improved. After that, coupled with the special arms of the dwarves and the careful layout of the dwarf demolition soldiers, once triggered, an entire area can be directly destroyed.

A series of explosions.

Faced with such a mine trap, even the armored beasts known for their defensive power cannot continue to ignore the existence of landmines. After all, unlike the body surface covered with thick outer armor, their relatively soft abdomen is not that powerful.

strength.

Taking advantage of the opportunity created by the explosion of the mine trap, Du Yuanzhi quickly signaled to his infantrymen who maintained the rifle phalanx. After a round of volley fire, they immediately broke into pieces and scattered in all directions.

The threat of the armored beast is indeed huge, but relatively, it is very bulky and lacks flexibility.

Use it to deal with immobile defensive buildings, and it will naturally be a well-deserved super killer weapon.

But if it is put into the wild battlefield, its bulky weaknesses will be quickly exposed, and it will be difficult to cause a lot of damage to scattered enemy soldiers.

But now, Du Yuanzhi has undoubtedly spotted this. The entire army group has been quickly dispersed into small teams of twenty or thirty people. They distanced themselves from each other and began to fight in separate battles.

Under this premise, even if the armored beast collided with one of the teams, they would only lose twenty or thirty people at most, instead of the huge losses of hundreds or thousands of people.

During this period, Guo Zhen, as the general of the Western Army, also led an elite unit under his command to quickly retreat and launch a strong attack towards the rear of the orc army!
