In the transformation of fortifications, although the Europa soldiers were not professionals, their work efficiency was much higher than that of the Dark Elf soldiers.

At the same time, considering the time issue, they did not plan to carry out any major projects at the beginning.

Basically, I just have the mindset that if I can install one, I will work hard there.

As a result, after a few days, the efficiency was surprisingly good.

Behind a circle of barriers on the outside of the trench, many defensive artillery pieces have been placed, and they look quite similar.

Later, it turned out that Delk's day and night rapid march had put them almost seven days away from the foreign coalition army behind them.

During these seven days, the soldiers, who had had a good night's sleep, finally recovered to some extent.

Seven days later, the dispersed foreign troops gradually arrived at the outskirts of the trench fortress.

They originally thought that Delk would flee again, but they didn't expect that this time, the opponent actually chose to stay and defend the fortress.

"It seems that the enemy on the other side is reaching its limit. Knowing that there is no way to escape, we decided to hold on to the fortress. After adjusting our state, we fought to the death."

While he was talking, inside the meeting tent, a foreign military officer slammed the conference table in front of him.

"Just right! This time, let's make a complete end with them!"

The sea area around the continent has been blocked by Europa's fleet and the fishman army. At the same time, Europa's reinforcements have also landed. During this period, it is not only the opposite side that is under great pressure. They have no unified army, and the pressure is also very high.

In this wave, if they want to stabilize their dominance on the continent, they must destroy the Dark Elf army and the remnants of Europa before the reinforcements arrive, and then concentrate their efforts on dealing with the reinforcements.

No nonsense, after a period of discussion, the military officers from various countries directly decided to implement the encirclement strategy.

Troops from all walks of life surrounded the entire fortress in a short period of time.

"General, we are surrounded by foreign troops!"

After confirming the peripheral situation, the soldiers quickly walked into Delke's temporary office. While talking, the expression on their faces was even more panicked.

When Delk heard this, he responded solemnly, indicating that he understood.

On the surface, he looked unusually calm at this time, but only he knew the pressure inside.

According to the current situation, the foreign coalition forces can clearly put pressure on the Dark Elf army and Europa soldiers under their command just by encircling them.

As time goes by, the morale that has just been restored may have to fall again.

As his thoughts whirled, Delk asked aloud...

"Have the foreign troops who surrounded the fortress made any further moves?"

"not yet."

After receiving this answer, Delk felt even more stressed.

To be honest, he would rather the other party take the offensive directly. He can still hold his breath at this time, which shows that the officers of the foreign coalition army are really difficult to deal with...

The fundamental reason lies in two aspects.

The first aspect is, as mentioned before, according to the situation at this time, the foreign coalition forces can put pressure on them and even damage their morale just by surrounding them. There is no need to rush to kill them.

And this second aspect is because of the condition of the soldiers...

Those foreign armies had traveled a long way and had just arrived here. The soldiers were in a state of fatigue.

Under such circumstances, if an offensive is launched in a hurry, the combat effectiveness will already be reduced by 30% before the battle begins.

Therefore, it is necessary to take appropriate rest to allow soldiers to recover before battle.

They are indeed under a lot of pressure, and time is getting tighter and tighter, but the people present are all veterans, and they still know the principle of 'sharpening the sword before chopping wood'.

Sitting in the office of the fortress, at this moment, Delke's entire face was full of uncertainty.

There are two roads before him now...

The first way is to wait. Since the opponent is not in a hurry to launch an offensive, he doesn't have to worry. He can just stabilize the morale of the soldiers in the fortress, watch the opportunity, and launch a defensive counterattack while waiting for reinforcements.

For now, this route is the safest. The only risk may be that the soldiers may not be able to withstand the pressure of the siege, resulting in a drop in morale.

And this second way is undoubtedly to take the initiative and take advantage of the foreign army's poor condition to forcefully attack and defeat him.

If he can take this opportunity to severely damage one or even two of the opposing armies, he will definitely make a lot of money, and the subsequent battles will be much easier to fight.

But obviously, there are risks involved. Once he takes the initiative to attack, it means that he has to give up his fortress advantage as a defender.

At the same time, what if the other party also sees this and sets an ambush for him?

At that time, as soon as his army was out, it was immediately besieged by several foreign armies, and there would really be no return.

The current situation forced Delk to think too much. There was no way around it. If he made one wrong move now, he would be doomed! By then, he would not only be dead, but also his entire army of dark elves, and even some who were following them.

soldiers of europa.

In this way, after the siege of the city was launched, three days passed quietly.

During these three days, the various foreign armies scattered in various directions maintained communication through their respective radar vehicles and radio communication equipment.

"You really didn't take the bait at all. Could it be that the harpy in the sky saw something?"

"Impossible, we have basically done nothing these days. What can the harpy see? I think the other party has guessed it. After all, the other party is not a fool."

"It's really troublesome. It would be easier if we just kill him honestly."

There is no doubt that just as Delk has considered this, the various officers of the foreign army have also thought of this.

Although they seemed to be motionless on the surface, they were actually secretly tense.

As soon as the Dark Elf army comes out, the various foreign armies will get the news as soon as possible through radio communication equipment, and rush to the battlefield to provide support.

But obviously, no one is a fool and will not rush into other people's traps foolishly.

Some people always like to think of some strategies that are too powerful or even magical.

In fact, battles between smart people and smart people are often the most boring, because in the end, they basically can't figure out anyone. In the end, they have no choice but to squeeze their sleeves, arm-wrestle, and fight for strength!
