I am a god in another world

"I know that too." General Batumih sighed, "Who knows how many explosive traps the enemy has buried along the way? If we risk our lives, who knows how many soldiers we will have left when we catch up with the enemy. Moreover, it is difficult to increase our speed when we are afraid."

Nalu advised again: "The enemy cannot set traps all over the mountains and plains. They must set traps on this road or on the road that must be passed. Why don't we take the initiative to avoid these roads? After all, we are light cavalry and have never relied on roads that much. There are no roads in the endless wilderness."

General Batumih nodded, then shook his head and said: "I have thought about the method you mentioned. If the enemy is in the same situation as us, In the wilderness, there are no roads, so we can catch up with the enemy with the speed of light cavalry.

However, with the help of roads, it is difficult for us to catch up with the enemy when we march through the wilderness. After all, this is not an endless wilderness. Although Sesk is mainly plains, it is not flat. As long as there are some natural obstacles, any delay will slow down our marching speed.

Don't forget what is another important responsibility of us as the vanguard! "

Nalu answered without thinking: "Clear the obstacles for the army led by Khan."

"The difficulties we are facing now are also what our army will face next. We must not only find a way to catch up with the enemy, but also clear the road for the army." General Batumihe gave an affirmative answer.

"Then use livestock to clear the way." Nalu turned around and thought of a brutal and cold-blooded method, "Split up our vanguard army and spread them out like wolves, drive out the locals or monster tribes from the land, and let them clear the way in front.

Multiple sections are carried out simultaneously, and the efficiency is naturally greatly improved.

And I guess that the traps they set are carried out in sections, and it is impossible to set them along the way."

The livestock that Nakan mentioned are naturally not real livestock, but those Sesk natives.

In the eyes of the Tukan people, the value of those real livestock is higher than that of the natives, especially when there is no way to transport slaves to the endless wilderness on a large scale, they are a group of cannon fodder that can be consumed at will.

General Batumihe thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "This is the most feasible method at present, but there is no need to split the army too much. We must prevent the enemy's counterattack and split the earth wolf cavalry into ten thousand-man teams, let them be responsible for driving the sheep and clearing the traps, and the other two teams save their energy and coordinate in the middle."

"The general is a safe idea, we will act according to the plan." Nalu praised.

The efficiency of the Tukan Vanguard was very high. Less than half an hour after the plan was set, the Earth Wolf Cavalry rushed into the wilderness in a burst of shouts.

These Earth Wolf Cavalry, with the cooperation of the Tukan Eagle Knights, were also very efficient.

The fastest one drove the first batch of slaves back in just one and a half hours.

The slowest one took no more than three hours.

General Batumih chose the Earth Wolf Cavalry to perform this task instead of the gnolls, which was also a good use of people.

These Earth Wolfs are professional soldiers in their bones. As long as they are satisfied with their current lives, even as slave soldiers, they will do their best to complete the task.

But those gnolls are different. In their bones, they are thugs without any moral bottom line. If there is not enough force to suppress them, and they are scattered in the wilderness, let alone completing the task, it is unknown how many people will come back.

With a large number of flesh and blood bodies clearing the way, the Tukan Vanguard, which was slowed down by the mine array, immediately began to accelerate and chase the chariot corps in front.

...

The response measures taken by the Tukan Vanguard were immediately transmitted to the chariot corps that were rushing forward.

"Driving kind people to destroy traps, these Tukans are still unscrupulous as always. I believe that it won't be long before they will be enemies everywhere in the Sesk Plain." The earth spirit witch said angrily.

Obviously, what the Tukans did in the Sesk Plain reminded her of their evil deeds in the Leatherman Kingdom.

"It's too naive to want to break our trap array with this method."

Gavin turned around and asked the professionals, "Master Susi, can you improve the detonation devices of these traps to further increase their bearing pressure? Ordinary people will not explode when they step on them, but people riding mounts will blow them up when they step on them."

Sure enough, war is an important means to promote development. I didn't expect that the concept of anti-tank mines would be put on the agenda so soon.

Susi, Gavin's personal kobold trap maker, answered without even thinking: "This is not difficult. We just need to adjust the burial depth of the vibration bombs. I will go there immediately to personally guide them in their work."

The vibration bomb trap that slowed down the Tukan Vanguard was naturally the work of the kobold pit makers.

These followers who followed Gavin the earliest were irreplaceable in trap making.

Wherever Gavin was, there would be their shadows. They not only participated in wars, but also in various constructions.

So, their growth rate is undoubtedly amazing. The kobolds in the pit village have already increased from less than 300 to the current 3,000. Among them, there are as many as 500 pit makers who followed Gavin to fight in various places. All of them have extraordinary strength and are dragonized kobolds.

This not only means that they have activated dragon wings, are air forces, and have stronger mobility (they are extraordinary spellcasters after all. Although their special accuracy is relatively high, teleportation is their standard equipment, and ordinary mobility is in their hands. Support, they can teleport and intersperse when necessary), which also means that their abilities are extremely enhanced like Suzy.

Although not everyone has the ability to activate instant traps like Susie, they are not too weak, and their abilities are more diverse. Even Gavin doesn't know how diverse they are.

After all, he is not what he used to be. Kobolds are just one of his many types of soldiers. He has jumped from a kobold lord to a commander who coordinates the overall situation. There are too many things that need to be considered by him. It is impossible to be like before. Putting too much energy into an army of kobolds.

Gavin has understood this truth a long time ago. A person's energy is limited, especially with the development of his subordinates' power. Some mid-to-low-end things must be properly delegated and handed over to his subordinates to handle. Develop on your own.

If you have needs in a certain area, you can directly make corresponding requests to them and let them develop them on their own. They can even bring you unexpected surprises.

Without their own participation, their development speed has only returned to normal, and it is not static. Faerun now has a relatively complete professional system, which cannot be underestimated.

This is a symbol that a force is on the right track and is gradually developing and growing. If you have everything firmly in your hands, it means that you are just a small lord from the beginning to the end.

"Wait a minute." Gavin stopped Susie who was about to fly into the air.

"Lord, do you have any other orders?" Susie asked hurriedly.

Gavin continued to suggest: "You can make the traps more diverse and send out the digging insects to create more traps and tunnels. At the same time, you can also set up more horse traps to trap the horses' hooves. Finally, The important thing is not how many enemies are killed, but how many people's mounts are injured so that they cannot increase their speed and cooperate with our main force. "

"Thank you Lord for your advice. I understand how to do it. I wonder if there are any other instructions?" Susie's eyes lit up, because this matter is really very simple for them. Those traps are like rabbit holes. Horse pits are much easier to make than huge pits.

With the extraordinary ability of a trap maker, a single spell can cover an area of ​​thousands of square meters with hundreds of traps.

These horse traps are not very harmful to ordinary people, but to war horses, especially running war horses and their knights, the damage can be one to one. Once they slip into it, their huge weight and speed will knock their horses' hooves off. He broke it abruptly and threw the knight away.

Moreover, the difficulty of dismantling them is not comparable to that of shock bombs. After all, there is no way to blast and dismantle these things.

They can only be filled up and demolished manually or through magic. No matter which method is used, it will take time.

But in this way, the purpose of slowing down the enemy will be achieved.

However, you must have a good budget when setting it up. You must set it up only when the Tukan vanguard is about to arrive. Magic traps usually have a duration limit, most of which are between ten and eighteen hours. The duration is the same as the trap maker's. Hit dice related (hit dice/hour).

Once the time limit is exceeded, the magic power gathered together will dissipate, the magic trap will automatically fail, and everything will return to its original state.

This is both a disadvantage of magic traps and an advantage that ordinary traps do not have.

This advantage eliminates the need to send people to spend time and effort to find and dismantle them after the war.

Gavin waved his hand and said: "Go ahead, this is all I can think of for the moment."

"As ordered." Susie saluted again, then flapped her wings and flew towards the team of kobold trap makers.

Looking at the dragon-turned-kobolds in the distance, the earth spirit witch couldn't hide her admiration in her eyes and said: "I heard that the commander started out as kobolds, but I didn't expect that you didn't just rely on their strength in numbers. Everyone, they actually cultivated these little guys to such an extraordinary level. We originally thought that only those giant dragons could truly develop the true strength of these kobolds!"

"It is true that only those giant dragons can truly tap into their strength, and I am no exception." Gavin said truthfully, "Originally, I thought that I could use my own abilities to change the instinctive nature of these creatures and create a new race. .

Who would have thought that after going round and round, he finally returned to the dragon. Unless it was Shendi, if he wanted to reshape a race, he would have to do it over many years like all of you. "

The last thing Gavin said was of course the Leathermen. Just like he shaped the kobolds of the Dragon Oak Territory, it was these Leatherman witches who shaped the Leatherman Kingdom and the existing Leathermen.

"Commander is overrated. It's not so much that we influenced the Leathermen, but that we influenced each other to become what we are now."

The earth spirit witch replied humbly, "You have opened up a whole new world for us. Without the protection of the totem dream, we would not be able to easily mobilize our troops and strength to continue to intervene in this war."

This is by no means a mere compliment, but a statement of fact.

The reason why they dared to cooperate with Gavin in plotting against Yamen Khan was because they had the support of the Totem Dream. They no longer had to worry about Yamen Khan launching a desperate all-out attack on their Leatherman Kingdom. There were several Haslan witches in charge. In the totem dreamland, I am confident that I can withstand the harassment from the top officials of the Red Robe Mage Association of the Kingdom of Ser.

The emergence of the Totem Dream not only changed the role that the Leatherman Kingdom could play in this war, but also changed the war situation between them and the Ser Kingdom. They were no longer simply passive and passive, but had the initiative. The ability to attack puts the initiative in the war in your hands.

"This is something that is beneficial to both parties. If it weren't for your lords to contain the extraordinary army of Yamen Khan, I would not dare to act rashly in other directions." Gavin responded with a smile.

Whether it was the dispatch of the chariot corps or the previous attack on Tukan's army by the Haslam witches, they were all closely linked.

There is only one purpose, and that is to restrain Yamen Khan. Only in this way can the war be dragged into a normal state.

After pondering for a moment, the Earth Spirit Witch suggested: "Since the Tukan people have divided their forces, why don't we catch them by surprise and eat their vanguard army. They only thought they were chasing your chariot army, but they didn't Know that one of our berserker legions is dormant in your chariot."

Those who were liberated from the totem dream were not only the Haslam witches, but also the Berserker Legion of the Leatherman Kingdom.

After the Totem Dreamland was officially established, Witch Haslam and Gavin held another secret meeting to discuss the situation in the desperate eastern region and reached a deeper cooperation.

These Haslan witches continued to recommend Gavin as their commander. Not only did they do their best to help him form the Far East heavy cavalry, they even mobilized the most elite fearless men from the Leatherman Kingdom to form a 10,000-strong army, composed of iron King Cedrin personally takes command, and the Earthen Witch sits behind the scenes, leaving Gavin to have full command and deployment.

Don't underestimate this legion. They are the essence of the Leatherman Kingdom. These fearless people have activated the totem spirit, and they are all carefully selected and suitable for use as mounts.

This means that a legion can be used for dual purposes. They can be used as violent infantry for attacking or defending, and they can also be used as cavalry to break out or pursue the enemy.

The most powerful thing is that they not only have the violent ability to fight one against three, but also take into account the defensive power of heavy infantry and the mobility of light infantry. They are even more magical when used as cavalry. They have the advantages of light and heavy cavalry, and at the same time, they also have the ability of ordinary cavalry. They have no concealment, their mounts are their totem spirits, which are usually warmed and maintained in their bodies, and are only summoned when they are used.

These totem spirit mounts have a limit on the time they can appear every day, which is a minor flaw.

The characteristics of this Berserker Legion make it a perfect match for the Chariot Legion.

Since leaving Leatherman Kingdom, they have been hiding in the building chariot. In addition, with the shielding blessing provided by the storm body, even the Tukan people with aerial reconnaissance troops have no way to fully understand the chariot. The army is unreal.

"It's too close." Gavin objected without hesitation, "It's too close to Tukan's army. Reinforcements from the other side can arrive at any time. If we are stuck by them, the gains will not be worth the losses.

Moreover, the opponent is a light cavalry. If they want to escape, it will be difficult for us to annihilate them. On the contrary, it will delay our next combat plan. "

"It makes sense." The earth spirit witch did not insist on her opinion. After all, the other party was professional in directing wars. Instead, she asked, "What military measures are you planning to take in Taimar? Are you going to stay in the city and defend it?"

"Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent." Gavin quoted an ancient saying. Ever since he communicated with those Xianglong people, his Chinese soul felt like it was burning, and many things had been evoked unconsciously.

The earth spirit witch did not doubt that he was there. She just regarded it as the unique language of the Xianglong Empire and asked curiously: "What does it mean?"

Gavin explained: "Military tactics are not static, but change according to the changes of the enemy. Whether Taimar can hold on is not decided by us, but depends on the resistance forces gathered there in advance and the movements of our enemies. No matter how strong our defense is, if the enemy doesn't prepare to attack at all, but directly passes over, everything we do will be in vain. "

"Not attacking Taimar?" The earth spirit witch couldn't help but be stunned. (End of chapter)
