How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 108 : What Are They Carrying Those Things For

Finding an army from the air was much easier than on the ground.

Not long after flying out of the Imperial Capital, Elashia spotted a small squad of troops in silver-white armor from above.

On the ground, Cecilia instantly detected soone watching them from above through years of combat experience.

Looking up, she smiled and said to Aelia beside her:

"It seems this combat exercise truly must succeed and cannot fail."

Aelia, wearing full-coverage armor, made a sowhat muffled sound from within her armor.

"Why are you suddenly saying that?"

Cecilia pointed to the sky.

"See for yourself."

Through the gaps in her helt, Aelia saw the pink-haired girl flying in the sky.

Her emotions still showed no fluctuation.

"It's fine. Soldiers trained with my thods won't fail against goblins."

Cecilia also smiled easily.

"I think so too."

Before long, Elashia landed beside them.

As soon as Elashia ca down, she asked directly:

"I heard from the soldiers in the military camp that you're going to conduct real combat. How do you plan to do it?"

Cecilia answered:

"We'll first lead a hundred-man army in the first small-scale goblin extermination. After successfully completing three real battles, we'll apply to you for large-scale promotion of this tactic."

Elashia nodded with satisfaction.

"Good, let see your tactics."

Actually, Elashia was quite curious about Aelia's tactics.

Goblins generally lived and reproduced in caves.

In the ga, for every goblin cave exterminated, Elasia would roughly pay the cost of over ten lives.

Because a goblin cave would roughly contain over a hundred goblins, and there would also be quite a few traps and defensive asures.

Elashia also knew—deaths were unavoidable in war.

So she was very curious—what thods did Aelia have, and could she reduce these casualties a bit?

Soon, Elasia's hundred-man squad reached the vicinity of the cave.

They could already clearly see goblins moving around the cave entrance.

"Please begin commanding, Ms. Aelia."

Cecilia retreated to Elashia's side, yielding the commander's position to Aelia.

Aelia just nodded, then said in a steady voice:

"Crossbow unit, begin shooting."

After her command was relayed by the herald beside her, a full half of this hundred-man squad pulled out crossbows from their bodies and began shooting at the goblins around the cave.

Sensing the attack, the goblins outside the cave began screeching "gwala gwala."

"Hey, why are you all carrying crossbows?"

Elashia asked Cecilia beside her in confusion.

Although Elashia didn't understand military affairs, she was still very clear about the effects of various weapons.

Although crossbows had fast attack speed, they couldn't cause much damage once the range beca too far.

Facing Elashia's question, Cecilia just smiled and answered:

"Your Majesty, you'll know in a mont."

Not long after the soldiers began shooting with crossbows, all the goblins outside the cave hid inside the cave.

Goblins weren't stupid—as soon as they saw soone attacking, they would imdiately retreat into the cave.

Elashia, watching from behind, beca even more confused.

"This... not a single one was killed."

Cecilia smiled and repeated again:

"You'll understand after watching for a while. Aelia is truly the most strategic person I've ever seen."

In the ga, Elasian soldiers would generally try to kill more goblins outside the cave, because extermination operations would beco very difficult once goblins entered the cave.

Elashia asked in confusion:

"Then how do you plan to go in and exterminate this group of goblins?"

There were at least over a hundred goblins in this cave, and entering the cave for extermination would probably result in significant casualties.

Cecilia smiled mysteriously.

"Your Majesty, can goblins only be killed by going inside?"

After all the goblins entered the cave, Aelia ordered the other thirty soldiers carrying various close-combat weapons to completely surround the cave.

Another ten lightly equipped soldiers kept watch in the surrounding area.

"Hey, aren't those people carrying sothing other than weapons on their backs?"

Only now did Elashia notice—so people in this unit seed to be carrying strange things on their backs.

So people carried wood on their backs, so carried... grass?

There were even a few people carrying large fans?

What were they carrying those things for?
