Chapter 1259 Saint Laurent's Counterattack
Marshal Adolf made this decision very decisively.
From his perspective, the strength of their Saint Laurent Empire and the Greenskin Royal Family was already equal. Although the arrival of the Blood Hand Clan broke this balance, even if they made a mistake in judgment, they would at most lose some troops. On the contrary, if they made a correct judgment, it would be a great opportunity to severely damage the Greenskin Royal Family on the opposite side!
In this case, he was not even gambling, and there was no reason not to send troops!
At the border of the Saint Laurent Empire, the fortress gate rose, and the garrison immediately filed out, forming an offensive at the fastest speed and launching a counterattack against the Greenskin Army!
Regarding the sudden counterattack of the Saint Laurent Empire, the Greenskin Emperor who received the news was quite calm.
In a long battle, it is normal for the defender to launch a counterattack and relieve internal pressure when they still have the ability to counterattack. The Greenskin Emperor did not think there was any big problem until a large number of Vajra Realm-level combat forces from the Saint Laurent Empire rushed into the battlefield...
"WAAAAGH! Exposed, the other side knows that we sent a large number of Vajra Realm-level combat forces to intercept their reinforcements!"
The Greenskin Emperor, who realized this instantly, looked a little ugly.
Under normal circumstances, both sides should have defaulted to high-end combat forces to check and balance each other and neither of them would enter the battlefield.
But now, the Saint Laurent Empire took the lead in breaking this situation and sent high-end combat forces to join the battle. Could this be an accident?
Thinking about the enemy reinforcements coming here, the Greenskin Emperor has already sorted out the whole situation in his mind.
At the moment, he only has three Vajra Realm-level combat forces on hand.
On the Saint Laurent Empire side, if he only sent out three or fewer high-end combat forces to test, he could handle it, but the opponent's wave of high-end combat forces was fully deployed, which directly put an end to the Greenskin Emperor's thoughts.
In this situation, if he sent out the three Vajra Realm combat forces on hand to meet the attack, there is a high probability that they would not return.
Rather than taking this risk, it is better to avoid fighting directly.
During the period, some proper operations will at most lose some troops.
As long as the high-end combat forces can be guaranteed, the loss of some low-level troops is completely acceptable to the Greenskin Emperor.
In the eyes of the Greenskin Emperor, this is an exchange.
The loss of the low-level troops here is exchanged for their time to mobilize combat forces to completely destroy the enemy's reinforcements.
When the interception troops sent out complete the mission and return, it is time for him to gather combat forces and launch a general attack on the Saint Laurent Empire!
As for the failure of the interception...
He has never thought of this possibility.
He arranged seven Vajra Realm-level fighters for the interception force according to the intelligence provided by Blood Hand King and the combat power of the Blood Hand Clan, in order to ensure that the mission was foolproof.
How could this mess up?
There was no news from the interception force for the time being, and the Greenskin Emperor was not worried at all.
From his perspective, it was basically impossible for there to be any mistakes.
In comparison, the battle in front of him required him to invest more energy.
Although he did not intend to send Vajra Realm-level combat forces to meet the attack, it did not mean that he intended to completely give up resistance and let the Vajra Realm strongmen of the Saint Laurent Empire massacre his troops!
If he did not care about it at all, he would have to lose several thousand more troops after a few rounds.
Once the gap in military strength was too large, even if they had an advantage in high-end combat power, the battle would not be easy to fight.
Considering this, the best way for them at this stage is to retreat.
While fighting and retreating all the way, reducing the loss of troops, they can also draw out the troops of the Saint Laurent Empire from the border fortress and move the battlefield to a more peripheral position, paving the way for the subsequent interception troops to launch a counterattack after returning.
Compared with fighting a siege, this is obviously easier to fight.
At the same time, on the wall of the border fortress...
"Marshal! The greenskin army did not send out the strong men of the Vajra Realm to meet the attack, and the large army began to retreat! Should we continue to pursue?"
Marshal Adolf, who confirmed this situation, flashed a touch of joy in his eyes, and his heart was clear.
"Continue to pursue and increase the intensity of the attack! Try to reduce the opponent's troops as much as possible in the shortest time!"
Although the opponent did not send out the strong men of the Vajra Realm to meet the attack, they can also create advantages for them by reducing the strength of the greenskin army.
At that time, as long as their military advantage is large enough, a strong man of the Vajra Realm can be exhausted to death!
With this in mind, following the order of Marshal Adolf, the garrison of the Saint Laurent Empire launched this wave of offensive without hesitation, which was fast and fierce.
After several rounds, the casualties made the greenskin emperor look unhappy.
He was indeed prepared for this, but he still couldn't hide his bad mood. After all, the greenskins were not so cunning.
The greenskin emperor gloomyly asked the large army to continue fighting and retreating.
He was sure that the offensive intensity of the Saint Laurent Empire could not be maintained forever, and the key was still the combat power of the Vajra Realm on the opposite side.
Although it was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables for them to kill ordinary greenskin soldiers now, even so, there would be consumption.
In this confrontation, the Saint Laurent Empire must guard against the powerful King Kong Realm on their side. For this reason, they must preserve the status of their own King Kong Realm powerhouses and not allow them to consume too much.
To put it simply, regardless of the ferocious attacks of those powerful Vajra warriors on the opposite side, they will soon have to restrain themselves after being exhausted to a certain extent.
And as long as the King Kong Realm warriors on the opposite side curb their attacks and the focus of both sides is completely on the confrontation of the large forces in their hands, then the green-skinned emperor will have the confidence to withstand it!
During this period, on the side of the Saint Laurent Empire, Marshal Adolf naturally knew what the green-skinned emperor was thinking about in response to the green-skinned actions.
But he is fearless. The reinforcements have already explained the entire situation to him, as well as their tactical ideas. Under this premise, they still have the upper hand, and there is no reason not to engage in a long-distance attack with the reinforcements. Cooperate.
Unlike most of the forces that have been suppressed by the green skins for a long time, the Saint Laurent Empire and the green skin royal family have always been evenly matched. After so many years of fighting, both sides have their own victories and defeats.
As a result, due to the arrival of the Bloody Hand Clan in this wave, they were both at a disadvantage in terms of military strength and high-end combat power. The Saint Laurent soldiers, who had been suppressed for a long time, were all holding back their anger, and now they seized the opportunity to counterattack. , every one of them is desperately trying to beat the green skin to death!
