"leave?"

"Master, if the ogre is still there, we may be able to fight. But the ogre... has left." Carrie changed into a tone of speaking. "The difference in strength is too great. Without a strong position, we cannot win." She immediately noticed the silence of Ashu Rufate.

"Master, you don't think you can beat Green Skin in this case, right?"

Ashu Rufate still didn't answer.

"Well, master, the dwarf's troops are only five or six thousand now... and the green-skinned troops have 30,000 to 40,000. Please note that although the number is similar, this is not the Iron Boss. The Iron Boss' troops have been severely weakened by us, especially their elite troops have been annihilated by two consecutive traps. So the Iron Boss seems to have more troops on the surface, but in fact the combat power is much worse than the number on the surface. And if I am not wrong with this Green Boss, they must have a comprehensive army, especially the light cavalry and heavy infantry are very complete. Don't forget the horror of the Spider Cavalry."

Ashrufate is of course very clear about the spider cavalry. Although these big spiders who are tamed and ridden by the goblin may not be very good, they have the ability to adapt to "all-terrain". They are top experts who detour from behind and escape experts, and are difficult to deal with. With the normal array method of the dwarves, infantry is in front and long-range troops are in the back. If they encounter spider cavalry, they will easily suffer a great loss. However, if they do not arrange this way, it will be difficult for the dwarves to fully utilize their advantages in long-range firepower.

When he was leading the Green Skin as the "Boss of Blood Flag", Ashu Rufate had suffered the loss of the Spider Cavalry. After a group of Spider Boys defected to him, he quickly mastered the use of this light cavalry. In the battle between the Iron Claw Mountains and other Green Skin Tribes, Spider Boys was always a very effective combat force. It is precisely because of this that when the Iron Boys led the army to attack, the Spider Boys were "focused on" by Carrie and were lured into a trap carefully prepared by the dwarves.

Of course, this is also attributed to the nature of the green-skinned orcs - the green-skinned boss has always been orcs, and the orcs, whether they are smart bosses or stubborn ordinary boys, look down on goblins. Perhaps the bosses all know that Spider Boy is very useful and is an expert in reconnaissance, encirclement and sneak attacks, but Ashu Rufate has never seen any green-skinned boss pay attention to the Spider Boy at a strategic level.

In short, for various reasons, in the previous decisive battle, the boss of Iron only had a limited number of spider boys left, which posed no threat to the dwarves. If not, the dwarves would probably not be able to withstand the green skins from front to back.

"Don't say that we don't have time to build solid fortifications. Even if we have built solid fortifications, do you think we can survive the attack of green skin?" Carrie asked softly in her mind.

"No." Ashu Rufate replied. Not to mention the exaggerated soldiers of the Green Skin, even if there is a war between humans, when the forces between the two sides are more than one to five, even the strong castle is no longer worth relying on. In the military book written by Thomas, there is a simple way to calculate combat power - when the forces are more than one to three, field battles must be avoided. When the forces are more than one to five, even defending the city must be extremely cautious. For example, the battle between Ashu Rufate conquered Carac-Grom before was a battle without any technology and extremely rigid, but even so, he still easily won.

Because that time he had a great advantage in military strength, but this time the situation was just the opposite.

If Ashu Rufate is now staying in a fortress city built by the dwarves, he can try it out. But the problem is that he stays in a camp with weak defense.

"We can't beat it." Carrie said straight in her mind. "Defense is not good either."

Ashu Rufate did not answer, which was the default Carrie's opinion.

"It is difficult to lead the army to retreat. The green-skinned fast troops move much faster than the dwarves... not to mention that we still have a large number of war machinery. We have to drag these things, but they are as slow as snails." Carrie said.

Ashu Rufate remained silent.

"The last method is to leave the troops behind the palace to cover the retreat of the main force. But the problem is that the troops are too disparity and there is no suitable terrain and fortifications. A small army behind the palace cannot delay the Greenskin army for too long. So the only way is to have a larger unit... Then why not just let the entire army stay."

"Carrie..." Ashu Rufat asked suddenly, "Do you remember our last battle at Nagaros?"

"The last battle? Huh?"

"At that time..." Asu Rufate said slowly in his mind. "If I were to replace Garce's command, would you think we had a chance to win?"

"Probably...probably...it's difficult."

"Yes, even if I was the one who commanded the army at that time, I couldn't win. Garce had done a good job. But facing three times the difference in military strength and the opponent who was cautious in using troops, all tricks were meaningless. The reason we were able to win that battle was because we did not follow the normal war steps. I still remember Thomas told me that in war, you must choose a way that is beneficial to you, and you must never follow the opponent's footsteps, especially you cannot do what the enemy wants you to do."

"Master...you shouldn't want to...get another assassination," Carrie said. "I remind you that that time was that time, and this time the situation was completely different. Green Skin couldn't suddenly know where our base camp is. There must be a hand behind Green Skin to point them in the direction of their progress. Besides, Green Skin should have been scattered everywhere and divided into hundreds of small and medium-sized tribes. It must be that the hand unified the scattered Green Skin under a flag. In this case, Green Skin cannot do a good job of defensive measures, and your assassination will not succeed. If you do it with the determination to die, there may be a great opportunity, but what's the point? Kill the boss of Green Skin and then be killed by the Green Skins?"

"Carrie, many books record that dwarves have no affinity for any kind of magic... They cannot feel the existence of magical energy, right?" Ashu Rufate suddenly changed the topic.

"Yes. But if you want to use magic and launch a sneak attack at a far-reaching position, it is not realistic." Carrie replied. "Even if you succeed and kill the Green Skin boss, you will immediately put yourself in extreme danger. Whether it is magic or sword, it will be difficult for you to kill the Green Skin boss and then escape. Don't forget that you are not a real dwarf, everything you do here is just a performance! In fact, the dwarf is your enemy!"

...

"What are the dwarves doing?" Gray-white cloak took off the helmet-shaped instrument again and asked with a tired expression. It can be seen that manipulating the white-handed boss was not as easy as expected. Of course, they did not plan to use this rough method in advance.

"You will be surprised when you say it." Wocher smiled and looked at the gray-white cloak. "You must not guess what they did."

"Make all the gunpowder into a trap to cover retreat? Or dig a trench to conduct defensive operations? Or leave everything behind and run away in a panic?"

"Not. In fact, they did nothing." Vochel said. "I was surprised even when I said that. Logically, even if they were to be a living horse, they should do something. I suspect that the Duke of Blood had already escaped alone... but this is unlikely. If the general escaped alone, the dwarves must have been in chaos. But their camp was very calm. I suspect that there was a fraud in it."

"Whatever he cheated." said the gray-white cape coldly. "I don't believe that the Blood Duke can play any tricks! The difference in combat power cannot be offset by one or two tricks. Where is the forward of the Greenskin troops?"

"If we follow the speed of today's march, we will arrive the day after tomorrow." Vochel replied.

"Are you sure?" asked the gray-white cape with some fatigue. "These green skins are really incredibly loose. The march plan I booked is useless."

"Yes, you can launch a tough battle with Greenskin the day after tomorrow. So tonight and tomorrow night will be the last chance for the dwarves' night attack. I don't think the Bloody Duke will miss this opportunity. By the way, I can observe the dwarves' march during the day, but at night, the satellite eye will be helpless. Everything depends on you."

"Don't worry, I have a layout." The gray-white cloak replied. "At most, just die a few more green skins and less green skins. The Bloody Duke will accompany you to the end no matter what tricks he plays! He can't make any waves!"

When he said this, the hatred appeared on his face so deeply that Wocher had to turn his head around and not look at his companion's face.

A man's jealousy can reach this level... Well... After all, it's all because Yilan is too arrogant and can't feel the feelings of others. Of course, it may also be because she felt it but didn't care. Who can explain the relationship clearly? Wochelle secretly regrets the unlucky dwarves in his heart.

However, you still have to do what you should do, right?

The gray-white cape stood up and relaxed his body. It was really a laborious thing to manipulate the white-handed boss in such a direct way. Under normal circumstances, he would not do such a stupid thing - even if he did it, he would give up after finding that he was so troublesome - but at this moment, another emotion filled his mind, making him eager to overwhelm the Blood Duke. He wanted to compete with the other party, proving that the Blood Duke had no ability at all!

This is an instinctive impulse and ** that his reason did not discover this at all. In fact, there is no additional benefit for him to be so hard. Even if he doesn't do this, would the Green Skin Army not go up to fight when he sees the dwarf?
