Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Chapter 1158 The two armies meet

The small-scale battle here ended quickly. Volkin originally wanted to ask the boar riders who came over to help and quickly move the ruins away, but the boar riders said that they didn't have the time to spare at the moment.

The battle on the front battlefield was tense. After receiving the signal for help, they brought a large force directly here in order to resolve the battle here in the shortest time and then immediately return to the front battlefield for support.

Fortunately, the three hundred militiamen were left to him, otherwise he really had no way out.

After signaling his subordinates to continue working, Volkin rode the boar to the other side to explain the situation to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei obviously knew it a long time ago. Even at this time, the giant eagle rider had already flown to the front battlefield, confirmed the entire battle situation, and came back to report to him.

The scale of this battle was much larger than they had expected at the beginning.

With Copperforge as the center, the battlefield was divided into three parts along with the siege launched by the large greenskin army.

On the dwarf side, there are tens of thousands of troops exposed to the Giant Eagle Knights' vision. The scale of the greenskin clan that launched the siege is even larger. The total strength of the three battlefields is probably more than 70,000 or even more than 80,000!

However, at present, the strength of the Copperforge Dwarves is still very strong. Relying on the geographical advantages brought by the mountains, they are high above and shrink their defense to resist the offensive launched by the greenskins from three places at the same time. The overall battle situation can still be stabilized.

This can't help but make Shi Lei relax a little more.

Obviously, the dwarves of Copperforge are not stupid enough to wait until they are at the end of their rope before asking for help. They still leave themselves some room for the time being.

For a period of time later, the troops of the Great Zhou and the three hundred militiamen under Wojin's command are still mainly focused on clearing the roads.

But what Wojin doesn't know is that the Giant Eagle Knights under Shi Lei's command have already flown over the battlefield to collect intelligence.

At the same time, Shi Lei's energy has also been concentrated on the tactical arrangements later.

After a period of time, no more accidents occurred. With the thorough dredging of the road here, the support troops of the Great Zhou in the rear successfully joined their front-line troops.

This increased the strength of their Great Zhou to 4,000 at once. As the defender, this is already a force that cannot be ignored.

During this period, due to the tense situation on the front battlefield, Woking had to bring his own soldiers back to support some time ago. Basically, only one of Woking's soldiers and 300 militiamen were left here.

Shi Lei was not unfamiliar with the boar knight who was approaching him. He was the one who was responsible for leading them before and was also Woking's soldier.

"Sir Shi Lei, please follow me."

At this time, the boar knight had a clear look of joy on his face.

Obviously, they also knew that the follow-up reinforcements of the Great Zhou had arrived and the support force had increased to 4,000. This was undoubtedly a good thing for them in Tongluobao.

Let the boar knight lead the way in front, and the Great Zhou troops led by Shi Lei quickly rushed to the dwarf's defense line.

Shi Lei had no intention of letting his Great Zhou troops cut into the battlefield directly from the periphery.

Through the intelligence provided by the Giant Eagle Knights during this period, Shi Lei had already figured out the dwarves' fighting style, which was a very typical positional warfare style.

Occupying the defensive line, and then deploying heavy crossbowmen to line up and fire in unison, relying on a wide range of long-range attacks to kill the greenskins.

This tactic itself is basically consistent with the tactics used by their Great Zhou Xu's crossbowmen at this stage, and Shi Lei knows it too well.

Therefore, he also knew that the biggest disadvantage of this tactic was that it could basically only fight positional warfare.

He needed to use neat formations and multi-stage shooting in rows to form a large area of ​​continuous killing.

This resulted in this tactic cooperating with the crossbowmen, and there was basically no ability to pursue or take the initiative to attack. The entire tactical focus was completely on defensive warfare.

In this situation, facing tens of thousands of greenskin troops on the battlefield, they cut in directly from the periphery?

By then, I'm afraid that the dwarves on the opposite side would not react before they were completely surrounded by the greenskins.

Whether the dwarves can withstand the pressure, bear the risk, and send troops to rescue them in time, that will have to be considered again.

Don't waste time at this time.

The dwarves have undoubtedly known about their existence for a long time. With the boar rider leading the way, they entered the dwarf's rear camp unimpeded and met the dwarf commander-in-chief who was in charge of commanding this battle.

"Thank you for your help, my friend!"

Seeing Shi Lei, the red-bearded dwarf with a big beard took the lead in releasing his goodwill and took the initiative to come forward and shake hands with Shi Lei to show friendship.

"I am the commander of this battlefield, Barley Copperfurnace, and Volkin is my little nephew."

After a brief self-introduction, Barley didn't waste words and quickly got to the point.

"The war situation is tense now, so I won't be polite."

While speaking, Barley directly gestured to Shi Lei to look at the map on the table.

"Since our troops have not cooperated before, considering the tacit understanding, I hope you can garrison an area alone."

Hearing this, Shi Lei nodded directly.

"I agree with you, Mr. Balai. In fact, I think so too."

"That's great!"

When the two armies join forces, the issue of tacit understanding must be considered to avoid embarrassing situations where the two armies cause trouble to each other due to lack of tacit understanding and lack of understanding of each other.

For the convenience of calling, Shi Lei directly marked the three battlefields surrounding Tongluobao with No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 respectively.

They are undoubtedly experienced veterans who will not make some low-level mistakes. They can quickly reach a consensus on many things, which also makes Bale's face more joyful.

He had to admit that after experiencing some troubles within the coalition forces before, he was somewhat wary of the arrival of the reinforcements from Dazhou, and even resisted it. He was worried that this would be a trouble, not only unable to help, but also causing trouble for himself.

However, in this simple communication process, Bale felt that the other party was at least easier to communicate with.

So he quickly stretched out his hand and pointed to an area in the No. 3 battlefield.

"This area has relatively less pressure, and I plan to let you garrison it."

Bale was not lying. What he pointed to at this time was indeed an area with relatively less defensive pressure.

But making this arrangement was not out of kindness, but because he still lacked trust in the strength of Dazhou. In important areas, he had to arrange their dwarfs' own troops so that he could feel at ease!

However, Shi Lei has his own ideas on this issue...
