Tail-chasing pursuit is using one’s own battle sword against the enemy’s back. This type of combat contains no technical content at all. A hundred thousand Mulan vanguards contributed famous cals to Witherspoon, turning them into a batch of amateur cavalry that wildly ravaged the bodies and nerves of Hai Mu warriors; Mulanese are slightly better, Sea Clan soldiers are burdened by the mobile protection of "An’er Le Water-Departure Formation" and really can’t speed up, once trampled by chaotic troops, Sea Clan soldiers who lost the protection of the formation might suffocate and die directly, while the smarter ones jumped into one of the four snowy streams near Witherspoon to linger on.
The outco of the battle is no longer suspenseful.
Beamon, as a country, is too poor, so much that even getting the livestock handled by shepherds is enough for scorched earth tactics.
This barren place can’t produce any crops, and there is little natural food available to satisfy hunger in the wild.
Except for provincial main cities like Witherspoon, those abandoned dium and small cities of Beamon are all earthen castles built with mud and fences, which ans the flat northeastern wilderness has scarcely any defenses. So even if the defeated Hai Mu troops can escape the pursuit of Beamon’s forces, it’s still an arduous task to regroup their forces, establish command centers, and strive to survive in the harsh wilderness after the initial panic settles.
"i Qing, do you think the Sea Clan’s defeat is unjust?" Queen Jiabao retracted her beautiful eyes from the crystal star lens. This kind of Demon World telescope is standard night vision observation equipnt, capable of turning even a glimr of light into a bright dayti scene.
"Unjust!" Roml earnestly nodded at the Queen of Lich: "Overconfidence leads to arrogance. They shouldn’t underestimate Beamon! But on second thought, if I didn’t know Beamon’s background beforehand, I might also be as confident as the Sea Clan, given their obvious advantages."
"Frightening, Beamon’s tactic to sever enemy supply lines hasn’t even co into play, and this Hai Mu coalition has already been defeated," Queen Jiabao said with a bitter smile. "I thought they would at least fight for a month or two, but didn’t expect it to end in just one night. Beamon’s bravery indeed matches the records in history, although their numbers and quality are far inferior to the enemy, they still dare to initiate counterattacks!"
"History even has examples where seven thousand cavalry cracked a million-strong army, so Beamon defeating an enemy ten tis their size is not uncommon, because war is cyclical, and anything could happen!" Roml said honestly: "Even if the stalemate lasted longer, the outco would certainly be the sa. Beamon clearly intended to rely on the terrain to inflict maximum damage on the enemy before launching a counterattack, just that today’s Hai Mu using a tower provoked them! The timing conveniently took a bit of advantage, and after losing twice consecutively, the morale of the Hai Mu coalition had already collapsed."
"What if their morale didn’t collapse? What then?"
"If their morale didn’t collapse, and if I were the Sea Clan commander, isn’t there still ten thousand Magic Shark warriors in reserve? I’d have them all self-destruct! I don’t believe so many Magic Shark warriors self-destructing couldn’t stop Beamon’s advance! But alas... these warriors were already frightened by the prior battles, and the Sea Clan commander wasn’t ntally prepared to deal with Beamon’s counterattacks. Under such circumstances, being successfully outmaneuvered by Beamon was expected." Roml cursed a couple of idiots with hatred for iron not turning into steel, then shook his head with a bitter smile, "This battle also exposed a fatal flaw of the Sea Clan, their reliance on the Water-Departure Formation is too bizarre. Once they flee without transport of the formation or if it’s destroyed by an enemy air strike, all Sea Clan soldiers would perish without a fight! Not to ntion whether their large forces can consistently protect this lifeline in war, from a military perspective, staking all soldiers’ lives on an object is inherently unwise! Beamon has capable people too, I don’t doubt they can see through this. Given their overwhelming air force advantage, in future wars, they only need to locate the Sea Clan’s Water-Departure Formation and destroy it to win the war!
"Is Beamon the opponent our Demon Clan will face in the future? I’m not sure if this is a fortune or misfortune for our Demon Clan troops..." The dim clouds wrapped around the beautiful countenance of the Queen of Lich, casting an even denser shadow on her already veiled face.
With Roml, once the grand marshal of Mulan, as an advisor, Queen Jiabao already knows that the large golden unicorn trampling and reaping countless Hai Mu warriors’ lives with massive iron hooves and spiral horn is a brand-new lineage of Arcane Beast --------- "Phantom Beast," a type of ever-changing Arcane Beast unheard of by Demon World folks!
"Not just the Sea Clan, in the future our Demon Clan troops will surely also face the impact of Beamon Phantom Beasts. Beamon no longer has golden-haired Giant Beasts, but possess such even more troubleso heavy Phantom Beasts, and our Demon Clan troops must be well prepared in advance!"
"Yes, besides instilling anti-impact concepts to officers, it would be best to develop exclusive weapons to counter such special troop types." Roml shrugged and gently shook his head: "But it’s easier said than done, doing it is much harder. Heavy Phantom Beasts have strength and protection, too domineering. I even have a premonition that Phantom Beasts will undoubtedly beco a decisive main combat unit of Aegean in the future!"
