From Exploder Goblins Invading All Universes

Chapter 34 The Battle of the Gray City ([-])
The gray dwarf's harassment tactics worked, seriously affecting the corpse collection efficiency of the corpse collection team.

The goblin corpse collection team sent to the back of the battlefield were only non-level goblins. Once these first-level gray dwarf fighters approached, these goblins would definitely not be able to escape.

But these gray dwarf warriors who were broken into pieces were also uncomfortable, because there were a total of three hundred third-tier goblin strong archers on the city wall, aiming at them and firing bursts.

Every time a small group of goblin corpse collection teams were disrupted, at least five or six first-rank gray dwarf fighters were shot to death.

Both sides are completely using the lives of their fighters to execute orders.

But it's clear at a glance who loses and who wins.

After a while, all the hundreds of non-level goblins on the battlefield who only collected corpses were killed by the gray dwarves.

And the five hundred first-tier gray dwarf fighters who had been reduced to zero were all wiped out, and no one could escape from the range of the three hundred third-tier goblin strong archers.

Standing in front of the army, Robert looked unhappy after seeing the opponent's corpse collection team being easily wiped out.

why?
Because although the opponent's actions were prevented, the own side paid a total of five hundred gray dwarves!

The battle damage ratio has reached a terrifying four to one!

What makes Robert most uncomfortable is that the body collectors sent by the enemy are all unqualified cannon fodder.
Using the lives of five hundred and one-level gray dwarf fighters in exchange for more than 100 unleveled cannon fodder from the enemy is simply a loss.

"If the opponent wants our fighter's equipment, they should send an elite team with sufficient strength to quickly grab it, why?"

This made Robert extremely incomprehensible and confused.

The main battlefield has now become a huge meat grinder.

A large number of second-tier gray dwarves fell to the ground, and at the same time, a third-tier copper-clawed goblin was besieged and killed by the gray dwarves with all their might.

Both sides are killing crazy!

However, the goblins under Lan Feng's command have always won by numbers, and they did not expect that the battle with the gray dwarves would be reversed today.

However, unlike goblins, these elite gray dwarf fighters are only holding on to their spiritual thoughts now. Once they let go of their pent-up breath and return to reality, and see the corpses of their comrades-in-arms and the same clan all over the ground, I am afraid they will die. There will be deep fear.

And Robert also understood this, so he asked the five thousand gray dwarf archers to maintain the rhythm of archery and carry out long-range suppression.

It's a pity that although there are many archers, among the five thousand, most of them are first-tier duergar archers, and there are only three or four hundred gray dwarf archers who have reached the second level.

The bows and arrows shot by the first-tier gray dwarf archers are not powerful enough for the third-tier copper-clawed goblins. If they don't hit the vital parts, they will only cause skin-breaking damage.

Coupled with the fact that the distance on the battlefield is too large, not all first-order gray dwarf archers are sharpshooters, and they can hit the enemy from a long distance, but they are all suppressed by the rain of arrows, blindly shooting the "big tiger".

If it weren't for the three or four hundred second-tier gray dwarf archers trying their best to shoot arrows for long-range suppression, the gray dwarves would have been smashed to death by a thousand third-tier copper-clawed goblins.

Robert, who was watching the situation on the main battlefield worriedly, glanced at the enemy's back, and took a deep breath.

The enemy sent out a large group of corpse-collecting cannon fodder.

Deploy some archers to kill these corpse cannon fodder?
"No, first-tier archers can't shoot so far, not to mention that the cannon fodder is scattered, and the deployment of second-tier archers, although they can accurately shoot these corpse cannon fodder, will affect the situation on the main battlefield."

How many fourth-order gray dwarves are you going to send?

"No way, the enemy's archer will definitely shoot at that time, whether it is a fourth-level or fifth-level gray dwarf powerhouse, it will be a dead end."

After a large number of thoughts were quickly calculated in Robert's mind, he was finally denied one by one.

Robert, with an ugly face, suddenly looked at his herald,

"Is the Goblin Moonblade Ballista coming soon?"

"Hurry up, it's only one kilometer away from our army!" The herald replied quickly.

Robert took a deep breath and clenched his fists tightly. He could feel his palms sweating at the moment.

In the end, his heart became ruthless, his eyes gradually turned cold, and he made a cruel decision.

"Order, except for the [-] archers, all the other fighters will be divided into two parts to bypass the main battlefield and carry out the battle to seize the city!"

"Avar, after the ballista arrives, you will command the enemy to attack and suppress the enemy's main battlefield."

"Yes, General!" Herald 'Avar' said quickly and firmly.

It's a gamble.

Bet, the [-]-tier and [-]rd-tier elite archers on the enemy's city wall are the opponent's last trump card in defending the dark city!

"The enemy has only one thousand and five third-tier fighters exposed to the outside, and it is impossible for them to invest all the fighters in a dark city."

There are so many green-skinned creatures and their strength is so powerful, the territory they occupy must not be small, and the territories they occupy, their lairs, important strongholds, etc. must be stationed with troops, so it is certainly impossible for them to be in a small area. Too many elite troops have been invested in the not-so-small city.

But all of this is based on Robert's own common sense experience, because he is afraid that these crazy creatures will not play their cards according to common sense.

Once there is still a Tier [-] elite troop hiding in the city, or a large number of Tier [-] and Tier [-] troops, most of the gray dwarf fighters will have to confess here.

Because in the extraordinary siege battle, it is very difficult for the inferior fighters to escape.

Just like Robert doesn't want to fight the opponent at all now, what he hopes most now is to stop the war first, and then wait for the arrival of strong reinforcements and siege weapons before fighting the enemy.

But the reality is that once he announces the order to retreat, the army will inevitably be smashed to pieces by the enemy's third-tier fighters, and then let the opponent slaughter.

It would be feasible to abandon the three thousand entangled second-tier gray dwarf shield fighters in exchange for the retreat of the rest of the army.

But even if Robert made the choice to do it again, he would not make the choice to abandon the soldiers under his command.

And now, Robert has invested more than 5000 second-tier gray dwarf shield fighters and all third-tier elite fighters on the main battlefield, so it is even more impossible to abandon them in exchange for the safe retreat of the remaining less than [-] first-tier fighters.

The movement of the gray dwarf army was clearly seen by Aiolos on the wall of the gray city.

But Aiolos just watched indifferently that the gray dwarf army was divided into two parts, bypassing the main battlefield, and did not give any orders.

Because now the commander of the battle of Gray City is Lan Feng himself.

On the big soft blue animal skin bed in Silver Gray City Castle in No. [-] Underdark Region, Lan Feng slowly opened her eyes, with a cruel smile on her lips.

"Hooked."
