Chapter 1643: Chapter 84: Military Maneuvering (Part 3)
This eerie calm before him was a brewing conspiracy in his eyes.
“Your Majesty, ever since the enemy army set up camp two days ago, they haven’t made a single move.
They haven’t attacked our garrison in Yangguan County, and they even deliberately let the remnants of the Giant Centipede escape.
All signs indicate that the enemy is ready for a decisive battle, just waiting for us to lead our army over.
Your Majesty, you need not worry too much.
Even if the enemy has a conspiracy, their total force is only about 270,000 or 280,000, just half of ours.
No matter how perfect a plan is, it needs to be implented. Without sufficient strength to support it, everything is just a castle in the air.
From the analysis of previous battles, Hudson can only rely on that cavalry.
He probably thinks that in his mind, we are just like that group of demoralized stinking centipedes, easily manipulated by him.
When the great battle erupts, we will surely teach him a harsh lesson, leaving the Demonic Crocodile Clan to beco a shadow over the rest of his life!”
Marshal Kent said boldly.
It doesn’t matter whether one can win on the battlefield; what matters is not losing the montum.
The commander’s cowardice before a fight is a major taboo in military strategy, and as a renowned general of the Demonic Crocodile Clan, Marshal Kent will certainly not make such a mistake.
“It’s good to have confidence, as long as we can defeat Hudson, our clan is sure to have a place in the Anti-Human Alliance.
If you complete this task, Marshal, you will beco the greatest influence of the Demonic Crocodile Clan and will be worshipped by countless demonic crocodiles for eternity!”
The Demonic Crocodile King imdiately promised.
Frankly speaking, half of his pressure cos from the performance of the Stone People Race.
Initially, they were required to kill Hudson to be recomnded to join the Anti-Human Alliance.
Their priority was even above killing ten Human Sanctuary mbers.
By this ti, the Stone People Race offered even more generous terms: as long as they can defeat Hudson, they are guaranteed a spot in the Anti-Human Alliance.
Lord Luciel also inford him that this matter had received unanimous consent from the various races within the alliance, even signing a contract on the spot, guaranteeing with his life that the agreent would be honored.
This extraordinary emphasis was a huge impact on the Demonic Crocodile King’s perception.
If he hadn’t seen it himself, he would not have believed the Anti-Human Alliance’s fear of Hudson had reached such a level.
The excessive emphasis turned into a heavy burden in the heart of the Demonic Crocodile King.
Already under imnse pressure, Lord Luciel would occasionally remind him to be cautious and careful.
As a result, on this journey, the Demonic Crocodile King was always cautious. Any slight disturbance would elicit an imdiate and rapid response.
…
The army marched forward, and the distance between both sides grew closer.
Sixty miles, fifty miles… until the last twenty miles, glancing at the sky, the Demonic Crocodile King decisively ordered:
“Marshal, I’ll leave the next command to you.
I have only one request, and that is to defeat the enemy army!”
There’s no choice but to delegate power; with the battle imminent, the Demonic Crocodile King lacked the confidence to personally challenge the continent’s top general.
To increase the odds of victory, he had no choice but to hand over command to the clan’s undefeated general.
“Your Majesty, rest assured.
The upcoming battle will be left to !”
After expressing his resolve, Marshal Kent imdiately ordered:
“Pass down the order; the entire army will set up camp on the spot, dig pit traps, and set up horse-blocking stakes!”
Approaching the enemy’s position, for safety’s sake, they chose a thod of marching by night and resting by day.
The effect was notable, as the enemy had no reaction to their nightti march.
As dawn approached, advancing further would an dragging weary bodies into a dayti battle.
This was undoubtedly disadvantageous, and hence, not an option.
An offensive approach wasn’t suitable, so they’d first play defense, as it was the perfect opportunity to test whether the Stone People Race’s thods could really restrain the cavalry.
…
Twenty miles is not too close nor too far.
The great commotion stirred up by the Demonic Crocodile Army was soon discovered by the scout horse, and the ssage was delivered to Hudson.
