At the same time, here in the known universe...

The relationship between various cosmic kingdoms has been continuously intensified due to the occurrence of various situations, and the most intense fight among them is undoubtedly the Black Iron Empire and the Elf Kingdom.

In the continuous confrontation between the two armies, the attack of the Elf Kingdom was a typical example of inability to follow up.

Since the battlefield was pushed to the void area outside the border by the Black Iron Army, the Elf Army has accumulated strength many times and launched offensives, trying to penetrate into the Black Iron Empire in one go.

But in the end, they were all pushed back in time by the garrison of the Black Iron Empire.

In this process, the earlier high-level spell bombardment of the elven army destroyed the border defense line of the Black Iron Empire and, to a certain extent, deprived the opponent of its home field advantage.

Calculating the time, in a state of war, the Black Iron Empire has no spare power to repair this line of defense.

But this does not mean that the Black Iron Empire has no remedies.

The concept of mobile fortress was first proposed by the dwarves. Although with the development of science and technology, many technologically powerful countries already have their own mobile fortress, but which country has developed the strongest mobile fortress? That is useless.

The question remains about the Black Iron Empire!

In this wave, after the Black Iron Empire's border defense line was reduced to ruins under the bombardment of superior spells, in order to regain the home field advantage, the Black Iron Empire directly sent a large number of dwarf void fortresses to form a fire defense line and extrapolate.

This approach, while making up for the disadvantage caused by the damage to home facilities, also extended the strike range of their home firepower in a disguised manner, allowing them to more effectively support battles outside the border.

This is also one of the main reasons why the elven army has been unable to successfully invade the territory of the Black Iron Empire.

The fighting power of the elven army is undoubtedly powerful, but if you think about the days when they were isolated from the country, you should know how long it has been since they fought a good war.

In the early years, it could only be regarded as a simple confrontation with the Black Iron Empire. Even though we could initially see the strength of the hard power of both sides, we could not see some things at the tactical and technical levels. The nature of the subsequent war with the Zerg was also completely different, and we could not

In a nutshell.

But now, after completely breaking up with the Black Iron Empire, the level of war between the two sides has undoubtedly risen sharply.

Although the Elf Kingdom has also accumulated some practical experience in the war with the Zerg, that experience is obviously not comparable to that of the Black Iron Empire, which is a veteran military power.

Under this premise, the main force of the Elf Kingdom is basically still on the front line. Not only is there a shortage of troops in the rear, but the actual combat experience of the soldiers within the army is also lacking, and there are even a large number of new recruits.

When the border troops of the Black Iron Empire cannot be taken away by them in one wave, the more times they fight and the longer the fighting time becomes, it will be difficult for the Elf Kingdom not to fall into a disadvantage.

In several rounds of fighting, the advantages and disadvantages of both sides were frequently switched, but needless to say, most of the time, the Black Iron Army had the advantage.

In the process of switching between advantages and disadvantages, the elves' army was at a disadvantage, and their defensive strength was as fragile as a piece of tissue paper.

Basically, it breaks with one poke and is instantly defeated.

However, this 'rout' is not a bad thing for the elven army.

It can even be said that the Elf Army is still able to deal with the Black Iron Army until now even though it is clearly at a disadvantage. It is precisely thanks to these 'defeats' again and again.

Because in this war, the black iron army will not pursue in depth.

The fundamental reason is that the advancement efficiency of the Dwarf Void Fortress is relatively slow. If a high-efficiency pursuit battle is to be launched, the Dwarf Void Fortress will inevitably be left behind, unable to keep up with the army in time to form fire support, and may even be defeated. There is a risk that the elven army will attack from behind and destroy their void fortress.

You know, with their super mobility, the Elf Army is also good at attacking and guerrilla warfare.

Of course, the Black Iron Army can actually choose to cooperate with the Dwarf Void Fortress to slowly push forward and advance steadily step by step.

But in fact, this move is not cost-effective at present.

Because considering the movement efficiency of the Dwarf Void Fortress, they would never be able to catch up with the flexible and fast elven army.

Under this premise, once extrapolated, it will lengthen their supply lines, increase their supply time, and give the elves' raiding forces greater room to play.

Instead of doing that, they would rather pull things here and wear down the morale and status of the elven army.

As the highest general of this elven army, Barkas undoubtedly saw this purpose of the Black Iron Army.

Therefore, during the confrontation between the two armies, as soon as the elven army falls into a disadvantage, Bakas will immediately 'retreat' all the way.

This move actually saved the elf army's casualties and consumption to the greatest extent in this disadvantageous situation.

However, this does not mean that the methods of the Black Iron Army are useless at all.

If this were the case, the commander-in-chief of the Black Iron Army should have changed the battle plan long ago instead of continuing to follow the old plan and deal with them.

The elven army took advantage of the fact that they had no intention of pursuing deeply. As soon as they were at a disadvantage, they immediately retreated and adjusted. Then, after regrouping, they launched offensives against their defense lines again and again.

But in contrast, the Black Iron Army also relied on its home field advantage to resolve the attacks of the Elf Army time and time again, and even counterattacked.

The Black Iron Army's "passive beating" was premeditated.

When the Elf army is obviously weak, with its back to the border and the support of their many dwarf void bases in the rear, the Black Iron army is confident that it can cope with the Elf army's offensive, and even launch a counterattack after dealing with it.

Facing the defense of the black iron army, the elven army was not only unable to attack for a long time, but was also repulsed time and time again. Over time, this had a very fatal blow to morale.

As long as the time comes, and their black iron army rushes out with all their might, they will be able to completely defeat the elven army.

On the side of the Black Iron Army, this idea is still more beautiful. However, although the overall performance of the Elf Army was lacking in regular battles, Bacchus, as the commander of the army, is not stupid.

He could basically guess what the other party was planning. In fact, the morale of the soldiers had indeed become worse and worse recently.

A large army needs to gain confidence through victory, but their large army had basically never fought a battle before this confrontation with the Black Iron Army, so how could it win?

Under this premise, the offensive has repeatedly suffered setbacks, and now the state of the army has been declining, which is somewhat within Bakas' expectations.

But he didn't have a good way to solve it.

For the current plan, we can only retreat before the morale of the army under our command collapses...
