(Section 16 Thoughts

The gray-white cloak gently closed the box in his hand.

He was standing in front of a sink at the moment - this was not a sink for horses to drink water, but a transparent, sealed sink made of unknown metal and glass. In the middle of the sink was a body of a green-skinned orc. However, the body had no movement at all, which meant that he was dead.

"What are you watching here?" A voice came from behind, but the gray-white cloak did not look back.

"It's nothing, I'm just looking at this last experimental subject." He said.

"It's just a failed experiment." The person behind him replied. "We found six, and finally one of them insisted on the operation. I hope he can use it."

"Your surgery is too rough. Do you know, I feel a strange feeling when I look at your surgery." The gray-white cape smiled slightly. "For that white-handed boss, the god of death came to visit the door again and again that night."

"But he also stubbornly pushed the god of death away from him again and again. Well," the one behind him replied with a smile, "Don't worry about this, we should have confidence in him--are not?"

"I still think... if there are two or three, it will be safer." The gray-white cape shrugged. They grabbed six green skins in total, but only one who could survive the surgery was called "Big Hand Boss". What a pity. If there are more green skins insurmountable, then they will be more confident in instructing the Green Skin troops to kill Ash Rufate.

Although theoretically, you can catch a few green skins, it is not easy to find a single orc in such heavy snowy weather.

"Forget it, according to my opinion, one can do it, and they will also avoid the latest chapter of the Ladder of the Heavenly Ladder of killing each other."

"After all, there are risks. If he is killed during the process of unifying the Green Skin Tribe... then our plan will be ruined. Wocher, why are you here? Aren't you responsible for observing the movements of the two armies in the peninsula?"

"All those who should be observed have been observed. There will be no major actions now." Wocher replied with a smile. "The climate is getting worse and worse. Even if Ashu Ruffat wants to fight, he will not be able to fight. I said, you must admit that the Blood Duke is really smart and good at fighting."

They already knew about the careful arrangement of Ashu Rufate in the peninsula and also understood the achievements he had achieved.

"How wonderful the combat method he came up with? It's simply perfect. Set up the traps, and then let the bait troops take advantage of the mobility gained by the sled to successfully introduce large groups of green skins into the death trap with a small number of troops. They can wipe out the enemy at all times. What's even more, due to the specific conditions in winter, even if the green skins escape from the battlefield, it's difficult to pass this news to other tribes."

"If he changes his opponent, this trick will look stupid." The gray-white cape replied disdainfully. "Only Green Skins will be fooled by this kind of trick. Only they will be provoked by the small army and immediately rushed to take revenge."

"The problem is that his opponent is Greenskin, warlike, rough, instinctive and brainless! You can't deny that this strategy was designed for Greenskin." Wocher replied. "The Greenskin boss cannot be indifferent to such a provocation. If he is indifferent, he will not be the boss."

"That must have been created by artificial intelligence for him." Gray White Cloak replied coldly. "The basic database of artificial intelligence must have information about the wars of the original era."

"I think you seem to be very hostile to the Blood Duke." Wocher looked at his companion with some confusion. "Why? After all, he is just a barbarian on a primitive planet, but unfortunately he is involved in this conflict beyond his understanding."

"He killed Yilan!" The gray-white cloak looked at his companion sharply, and the expression on his face surprised the latter.

"But that's...Yilan..."

"He killed Yilan!" The gray-white cloak repeated, but the tone calmed down. After a long time, he turned his head and continued to observe the green-skinned corpse in the sink.

"No need to study it." Wocher said. "It's too late to go in time. Even if you find out the reason for the failure of the operation, it's too late to find a suitable greenskin... As soon as spring comes, the war will be fully launched. Our puppets will not have the opportunity to unify the Greenskin tribe. If you can't gather an overwhelming army and just use a small amount of troops to fight against the Blood Duke, there is no chance of winning, and it doesn't fit our plan. Also," he paused. "You're too emotional. It's not appropriate to bring this kind of personal emotion into this kind of work."

"I know." The gray-white cape replied motionlessly. "What's the situation with our white-handed boss?"

"As expected, he led the tribe to the west and avoided the Dwarf Legion's troops. Not only that, he also fought several battles and annexed several tribes. However, it was winter and he did not have the conditions for a big battle. The green skins generally hurried in their nests to spend the winter... If he wanted to let go of his hands and feet, he could only wait for spring. At least before summer comes, we don't have to observe him too much."

"Where is the Dwarf Legion?"

"The trap they chose has been exhausted - after repeated blasting, the terrain of that area could no longer form large-scale rockfalls. Besides, there are no large green-skinned tribes in the nearby area, only some scattered green-skinned skins. If I was not mistaken, the Bloody Duke would no longer fight this winter. He would probably dispatch troops to attack the sporadic green-skinned tribes, and strive to completely clear the green-skinned skins of the area in favor of winter. In this way, after spring, he would enter the next area and repeat the process."

"He can't repeat." The gray-white cape still stared at the sink. "Once the snow melts, the disadvantage of the dwarf's slow march will appear. Isn't their bait troops able to bring green skins into the encirclement because of the snow? In the snow, neither wolves nor wild boars can't walk fast... On the contrary, the dwarfs have sleds, and their speed is not affected, but has accelerated the full text of the legend of the Rebirth of the Great Landlord."

"But when spring comes, the snow melts..." The sound of the gray-white cloak has some other flavor. "The disadvantage of the dwarf's short legs and being dragged down by a large number of war machinery will appear..."

"They can build roads, and I remember that dwarves are all good at building."

"If the road is built, the green skin will get more benefits than the dwarves." The gray-white cape replied. "After the road is built, the dwarves will march faster, but the green skin will also become faster. They cannot escape the pursuit."

"Whatever you think," Wocher shrugged, "but I think... as long as that AI is willing to help, he will come up with something."

...

“…If our reconnaissance is not wrong, there is no green skin in this area.”

The great caster Ashu Rufate stood in the middle of the conference room, which was filled with members of the Society of Engineers, and of course some non-Engineering officers. Although most of the Dwarf soldiers have not yet had a chance to play, everyone admitted that they were essential.

No one opposed this conclusion. Relying on the favorable terrain of the canyon, the Avengers had wiped out tens of thousands of green-skinned skins. Almost all the nearby tribes were wiped out, and only a few remaining soldiers or small tribes were left. Although the battle was very smooth and the results were very brilliant, all the dwarves realized something they had never expected - the number of green-skinned skins was much higher than they expected.

Originally, the dwarves estimated that the greenskins on the peninsula should be around 100,000, but after this period of battle, it turned out that they seriously underestimated the number of greenskins. The greenskins on the peninsula were at least twice as much as they expected. The Avengers divided the peninsula into six areas. At present, they only cleared the greenskins in the first area, which was only considered to complete their first phase of goal. But even so, the greenskins they eliminated were more than 40,000.

"The problem now is... what should we do next?" Ashu Rufat turned around and asked his subordinates. Although in terms of qualifications, he was the youngest founder present, because he accepted the appointment of the Supreme King, he was the general. Fortunately, he had gained enough respect and prestige with his actual actions, otherwise it would be a bit difficult to command the old dwarves with many beards than him.

"According to our original plan, the next step should be to know all the sporadic green skins nearby and build a second supply center here." The great founder Miklesco touched his beard and said. "But looking at the green skins, I think... maybe we should be prepared for a long-term battle? The problem of logistics transportation may become a big problem... After the snow melts, we will no longer be able to transport it with sleds. So maybe we should take advantage of this time to transport supplies?" he said softly.

Although the Avengers suffered very minor losses, they consumed a lot of supplies. Of course, this would be even more true in future operations.

"We have insufficient troops. No matter how we act, we must concentrate all our troops in one direction." Ashrufate said. "This means that our second supply point must be very strong, able to withstand long-term siege of Greenskin and waiting for reinforcements to arrive. But it is really difficult to do so. No matter how strong, the lack of defenders cannot resist Greenskin for a long time."

Everyone agreed on this.

"So I think, rather than attacking, we should defend. We use this time to build a solid fortification that can handle any enemy." Ashurufate said. "No, I don't mean a castle... I have a planning idea, and I'll talk about the details later... In short, we can let the greens act as we planned."

"How could Green Skin act according to our plan?" someone asked in confusion.

"It's very simple, we just need to provide convenient conditions." Ashrufate said. "If we build a road, then Greenskin will definitely not go to the wild, but will go to this road... If we change the terrain of some mountainous areas, then Greenskin's marching route will be very limited... In short, our thinking must remain unchanged - we must create a suitable battlefield to fight against Greenskins on this battlefield. Only in this way can we give full play to our technological advantages and defeat barbarism with civilization!" ·
