From Skaven to God of War

Chapter 110: If the enemy takes it seriously, then destroy it

Lush forest.

The city that made Sheng Qi suffer a setback.

The boarman commander lit a candle, sat at the desk, and was thinking about something.

A piece of parchment was spread out on the wooden table before him.

Compared to the ratmen, the boarmen are obviously more civilized. At least they have a complete written heritage.

At this time, the boarman commander was leaning over the table and writing something.

Of course he is aware of the current situation.

Compared to his colleagues and priests who were afraid of taking responsibility, the boarman commander was more fearless and more upright.

He was the first to propose abandoning most of the cities and concentrating most of the forces in the lush forests.

Of course, this prudent boarman commander knew the price, but at the same time he knew that the situation in the forest could not continue to deteriorate like this.

The parchment was rolled up, tied with a rope, and stuffed into a bamboo tube. That night, without much hesitation, he sent the bamboo tube out.

Soon, he should appear before the priest and the commander.

Gently extinguish the candle on the table.

Recite silently in a low voice.

"Praise the gods!"

Since no one is willing to take the responsibility, let him do it.

There is no black kerosene left in the city. It was a by-product of mining black stone and there is not much of it.

But fortunately it delayed it for a while.

Although I don't know how long I can scare those rat people.

As many cities and camps were abandoned, more soldiers began to gather in individual cities, and what was destined to be a rout accompanied by fear was the civilians who came to the forest with fantasies.

Without soldiers watching over them, they had no other choice but to flee in a panic.

Those ratmen won't pass up this opportunity.

I don’t know how many of them can return alive, and even if they do, the raging anger still needs to be calmed down.

Originally, it was the gods who promised them pasture land, but now all of this has become a bubble.

This lush forest is truly a land of abundance.

But this is war, whether it is the gods, the priests, or their hesitant colleagues.

They all imagined war to be too simple.

In the dark night, the boarman commander opened the window and looked up at the night sky outside.

An inexplicable light appeared in his eyes.

Faintly, an inexplicable aura appeared on him, as if he was already a quasi-hero.

But what exactly is the path he faces?

I'm afraid that when he handed over the letter, the answer to all this had already been revealed.

………….

Sheng Qi noticed the strange behavior of the wild boar people in the past few days.

The knights were still running between the cities, but this time they took teams of boar warriors with them.

These boarmen warriors abandoned the cities where they were stationed and began to gather towards several core cities in the center of the city.

This made Sheng Qi realize that something was wrong.

But he had no way to stop this concentration, because of the large group of knights accompanying the wild boar warriors. With their escort, a direct attack was obviously not a wise thing to do.

In order to stop this trend, the ratman army led by Sheng Qi unsurprisingly attacked the unprotected boarman camps and small cities.

Just one day's profit.

Sheng Qi captured three small cities and six camps.

A large group of wild boar civilians were tied up with ropes and led in a swaggering manner towards the desolate mountains.

Even such provocative behavior did not attract the pursuit of the boar knights.

Sheng Qi still hoped that this group of guys would chase him.

As the army becomes more and more concentrated, the remaining cities are becoming increasingly difficult to conquer.

This also made Sheng Qi gradually become anxious.

Recklessly, Sheng Qi chose one of the six cities where the wild boar people were gathering their forces and launched a tentative attack.

Because several surrounding cities had been conquered by Sheng Qi, the number of troops gathered in this city was far less than that in other cities.

But even so, Shengqi's offensive failed.

Even though the defenders in the city were suppressed by Sheng Qi again, this time the boar knights finally played the role they were supposed to.

The attack of these wild boar men forced Sheng Qi to abandon the siege and flee in a panic.

And this is only the weakest link among these six cities, but it leaves Sheng Qi with no way out.

Even more cruelly, they cleansed out those boar camps and small cities that had not yet had time to evacuate.

The war once again reached a stalemate.

Fortunately, the continuous influx of rat priests not only brought a steady stream of troops and supplies to Sheng Qi, but also built underground rat cities hidden under the ruins of the city.

This is the reason why Sheng Qi and the wild boars are in a stalemate.

The subsequent war gradually turned to the stalemate and the competition and harassment of logistics and supply lines.

After being unable to do anything with these cities, Sheng Qi began to attack the wild boar people who were transporting supplies and food in the forest.

At the same time, the attacks on wild boar civilians have never stopped.

After a period of time, there were basically no wild boar civilians in the forest. These guys either hid in the core cities, or were killed on the spot by Sheng Qi as sacrifices, or were captured and brought back to the Desolate Mountains as reserve sacrifices.

Some lucky ones even ran all the way out of the forest.

Sheng Qi did not chase after them, even though he knew that the capital of the wild boar people was in the vast plain outside the western forest.

As for why.

He's not a fool.

He was able to ignore the group of boar riders because of the tunnels dug by the old guys in the forest, but there were no underground tunnels on the plains.

If we don't deal with this group of boar knights and just rush into the plains, wouldn't that be just giving up? On the plains, who can really outrun those galloping knights?
If it weren't for this reason, Sheng Qi would have taken his troops to steal the house long ago.

Why bother fighting to the death with these wild boar people in the forest?

During this long stalemate, Sheng Qi was forced to find a way to make progress faster, such as a special city that he had recently set his sights on.

It was vaguely known that among the six cities left by the wild boar people in the forest, five of them existed to protect this special city.

Most of the supplies that the wild boar people transported into the forest also entered this special city.

Although Sheng Qi didn't understand what was so special about this city.

But adhering to the principle that if the enemy attaches importance to it, then I must destroy it, this city was targeted by Sheng Qi.
