Section 33 Disguise
Chapter 33 Disguise
When the Iron Boss came out, his subordinates had already formed a formation outside the camp. Although the orcs had muscles but had no brains, they knew that fighting had to be arranged in combat formations. Before the Iron Boss arrived, no green-skin leader could not wait to launch a reckless charge. From this point of view, the Green-skin (especially the Orcs) had great potential in intelligence to explore.
The morning sun shines on the distant hillside. It can be seen that the Dwarf Legion has already lined up on the top of the mountain and has a condescending advantage. The Dwarfs like to occupy high ground on the battlefield very much, because when they are located at high places, the long-range troops always have better range and shooting perspectives, and the Dwarf Legion is most proud of is their powerful long-range troops. Besides, charging to a high place will always consume more physical strength and spend more time, which will give the long-range troops greater shooting opportunities.
Because the dwarves occupied the top of the mountain, the Iron Boss could only see the dwarves laying into a front line, but they could not tell the thickness of their battle formation and could not estimate their number.
But aside from the number, the dwarf's cannon was alive. A shell flew over, because the distance was too far and could not hit the green skin, but it also hit a mound near the camp and exploded the sky with soil.
"Boss, it's time for us to go up." A leader suggested. The boys have already arranged the array, so the army should be allowed to move forward slowly and start charging once they get close to the combat distance. This is the only law to fight with the dwarves.
"What's the hurry!" The boss of Tien Pi was not in a hurry at all. With his intelligence, he could understand some dissonance. Why did the dwarves arrive at this time? The previous explosion of the camp and the collapse of the castle gave him a deep impression, which made him immediately think about the problem in the direction of "trap" and "trick".
The dwarves shot another shell. Of course, the distance was too far and the shell could not hit at all, but the meaning of this provocation was already very obvious. The dwarves were provoking Green Skin to fight.
"Is there any problem with that hillside...?" The boss of Tiexie thought for a while and pointed to the front and asked.
"No problem, didn't we come from there yesterday?" a goblin replied impatiently.
"Too talk!" The boss of the iron sheet said viciously, and shook his machete. The goblin immediately retracted his head.
No matter how good the dwarf's cannon is, it is meaningless at such a long distance. So the Iron Boss has enough time to observe the battlefield at this moment. After the dwarf's castle collapsed yesterday, the Greenskins dug for a short while (of course they found nothing, and no spoils were found except for the corpses of their companions). Then they built a camp next to the castle that was extremely simple even by the standards of greenskin.
The area where the castle is located is a relatively rare and flat area in this area, with a concave mountain. This flat means that the terrain is not much undulating, rather than no undulating, there are still hillside mounds nearby.
This land is very large, and if the dwarves set up an encirclement here, the boss of the Iron Skin thinks it is unlikely, because this means that the dwarves have more than three times more troops than the green Skin. With this kind of military force, the dwarves will not play any harassment tactics, but will do it directly.
The dwarf's plan may be the kind of explosion trap that was before - a pile of gunpowder buried underground and was detonated when the green skin came up. However, after thinking about it carefully, the iron skin boss felt that it was unlikely, because when the formal war was launched, the charge would always be a wave-like charge. The explosion would destroy a wave of offensives, but it could not cause the fatal blow before. So if the dwarf wanted to use it, he would use it directly when the green skin marched yesterday.
The helicopter above his head was still buzzing sounds from afar. Needless to think about it, these flies were reporting various situations of green-skinned to the distant dwarf army.
The boss of Iron Mai guessed most of the time, with only one exception. There was no dwarf army on the hills in the distance.
At this time, at the top of the hill, the senior member of the Engineers Association and master of artillery, Feiwen Wallace was running and laying out everything around him. There were too few people, and there were only about forty people in total. It was really not easy to arrange the dwarf legion, and it often required one person to serve multiple positions. Moreover, the use of cannons was absolutely impossible to save manpower, because the normal launch of cannons and loading really required so many people to operate.
That's right, the distant dwarf legion that Greenskin saw at this moment was not a real army, but an army made of favorable terrain such as the top of the mountain and some dummies (mostly made of thin wooden stickers).
These equipment were originally part of this operation. The original purpose was to attract the attention of the Greenskin army of pursuit and create opportunities to get the dwarf bait troops out of pursuit.
Feiwen's mission is to delay the Greenskin army for half a day to gain valuable time for the assembly of the main dwarf troops. That's it, but in fact, the person who was actually commanding was the great casting master Ash Rufate, who gave Feiwen specific instructions through the communication rune stone.
"Master, Green Skin did not attack." Fei Wen was no longer a rookie who had just started on the battlefield, but this time he took the initiative to fire and provoke it was really too bold, which made him a little scared.
On the opposite side is a real 30,000 green skins, and there are only forty dwarf engineers disguised as a large army.
"Continue, but you can't keep firing, especially you can't really hit the greenskin." The voice of the great caster sounded extremely calm through the rune stone.
...
The dwarves in the distance fired another shot. However, because the Greenskin army was far away from the effective range of the cannons, the shells were still hit far away from the Greenskin army, blowing up a stone. The Greenskins had relaxed at this time, and they knew that they were in a safe position and the dwarves' cannons were invalid for them. After confirming this, the Greenskin's morale began to rise, and some boys in front had already started to yell at the dwarves in the distance, making all kinds of provocative and insulting actions. In fact, as the atmosphere increased, many Greenskin's boys seemed eager to try and couldn't wait to launch an attack.
At this time, the boss of Iron has decided to adopt a safe plan. After all, to be honest, it is not a green-skin style to keep the battle in front of me. No matter how smart or cautious the boss of Iron-skin is, he is still a green-skin. His warlike nature is engraved in his bones.
"Let the shamans come here." He ordered his subordinates. He had already made a preliminary plan. First of all, he had to see how many dwarves were, so he decided to send a large group of goblins and a shaman to launch a tentative attack together. Goblins have always bullied the weak and feared the strong, which is just right for this task. Even if all goblins are destroyed, they cannot shake the morale of the main force of the Green Skin. For Green Skin, the big ones are stronger. Orcs never look down on the small goblins. Goblins will never shake the orcs' confidence when defeated.
After making this decision, the Iron Boss felt that it was not appropriate enough. "Call the Spider Boys."
"Boss." A subordinate reminded, "There are not many Spider-boys."
"I understand, I'll talk too much!" The iron boss scolded him. The number of spider boys was originally small. They were ambushed by dwarves before, but now there are only a dozen left. However, as the saying goes, the spider boys left now are the slipperiest types. Luck and vision, the spider boys who are slightly less than two have been reimbursed.
Soon, a fat-looking Spider Boy was brought to the boss, who was the newly promoted leader, which was the captain responsible for commanding all the remaining Spider Boys.
"Let me listen." The boss of the Iron Paper had no time to talk nonsense and immediately issued an order. "Look at the dwarf over there? Let me go around a big circle and see what ambush the dwarfs are. It doesn't matter if the speed is slower. The circle must be big, so don't let the dwarfs discover it."
...
Feiwen has noticed the Greenskin's actions. The Greenskin's army began to advance slowly. The formations arranged are formations that are integrated with offense and defense. The square formation is divided into two layers, with loose offensive formations in front and back, and dense defense formations in the rear. Although Greenskin has no military books or military academy, some things can be learned naturally, and even if they don't understand them, they can learn from daily practice. For example, formation arrangements, the dwarves are in a strict formation, while the Greenskin's formation has always been loose. But this is because they are naturally free and scattered, not because they don't know how to arrange troops. The experience of countless wars is enough to prove that the skills of the Greenskin's bosses in the formation are not worse than those of humans and dwarves' generals. They can also accurately grasp the transformation of formations and the timely investment of the reserve team. Especially in terms of formation control, Greenskin is almost born.
The Greenskin army stopped at the edge of the cannon's range. However, since the cannon is located at a high place, it naturally has a longer range and hit, so Feiwen estimated that the Greenskin army had entered the effective range limit of the cannon at this time.
At this position, ordinary dwarf gunners may still be difficult to aim, but the Avengers' Legion lacks the most is engineers, and there is absolutely no lack of artillery masters among engineers. Feiwen himself is a artillery master. He has 100% confidence to bombard the green-skin formation in the center of the green-skin formation and blow them up one by one. He now has a total of six cannons, and six shells hit the Greenskin army together. In addition, using advanced flowering artillery shells, he can at least kill 180 greenskins.
Unfortunately, the great founder clearly stated that Green Skin must not be too irritating. This time, Feiwen’s goal is to gain half a day instead of destroying hundreds of Green Skins.
Then, in the green-skinned army, a square formation began to break away from the group and approached the dwarfs.
"Master... They sent a brigade of about a thousand...it seems to be a tentative attack." Feiwen immediately activated his communication rune stone. Although this was just a small tentative attack for the Greenskin Army, it was not something that the dwarf could withstand.
"Try to defeat them with cannons. If you can't do it, retreat immediately." The Great Founder's voice was emotional, but he was very rational. As long as the green skin approached a certain distance, no matter how good the disguise was, it would be exposed. It would probably be too late to run again.
"But our cannon..."
"We can continue to cast the cannons when they are gone, but there is no way to be resurrected if they are gone!"
The Iron Boss clearly saw the cannon on the top of the mountain firing.
Six cannons roared together, and two of the shells fell to the edge of the goblins' square array, and suddenly cut off a piece of the goblins' square array.
