Warcraft Eternal Tree
Chapter 366 Guerrilla warfare?
Although he is one hundred and twenty years old, Marshal Spindu is still in his prime compared to the lifespan of an epic powerhouse. He was already a famous general on the mainland. Apart from wanting to protect his country, he had no intention of further increasing his fame by taking the opportunity to fight against the Dark Night Empire's army.
The intelligence system of the Holy Lion Empire is still good. Although Illidan divided his troops and attacked several cities, the number of the Dark Night Empire's invading troops was still clearly known. After all, they have been beaten into the country. How can the Holy Lion Empire still mess around on the mainland without being able to detect the number of enemies?
With three times the number of elite soldiers as the enemy, and still occupying the home field advantage, Spindu, the leader, had no intention of looking down on the night elves. Before reaching the place where the Night Elf troops were wreaking havoc, Spindu ordered to increase the number of scouts and make sure to find out the traces of the enemies within fifty kilometers of the troops.
Although he was in his own country, Spindu didn't think that the night elves would not set up an ambush. Illidan originally intended to take advantage of the hurried counterattack of the Holy Lion Empire and the unsteady foothold to launch an ambush on the enemy's territory to catch them unprepared.
However, after the Storm Crow, who had changed from the Raptor Druid force, discovered that the 200,000 human troops led by Marshal Spindu were so careful, they gave up the intention of ambush. After all, we are on the enemy's territory. It would be bad if an ambush fails and is turned into a counter-ambush.
However, although Spindu sent a large number of scouts to search for traces of the night elves, they were never able to find Illidan's assembled troops. Ever since 200,000 elite Imperial Guards entered the western part of the Holy Lion Empire, the Night Elf troops abandoned the occupied cities and disappeared into this area.
Of course, before evacuating these cities, the magic crystals, magic cores and most valuable things of the noble families in the cities had been looted by the night elves. This time, Yu Fei specially collected a large number of space rings and gave them to Illidan to hold the trophies obtained in the war.
Marshal Spindu led 200,000 elite imperial troops and almost made a full circle in the western part of the Holy Lion Empire, but could not find even a single trace of the night elf. It's like for an army of 200,000, no night elves have ever invaded the empire.
No, this is impossible! Sitting in the commander's tent, Marshal Spindu frowned and thought hard about what went wrong.
The Dark Night Empire's army must still be somewhere in the west of the empire. Just because the 200,000 forbidden troops haven't noticed it doesn't mean that others haven't noticed it. Always far from the troops, sightings of night elves were reported.
However, when the human army rushed there at a rapid march, there was no trace of the night elves. It was as if the night elves could completely predict the course of action of the 200,000 forbidden troops. The local advantages of the Holy Lion Empire are completely unreflected.
Could it be that there is a traitor in the army who keeps contacting the enemy and revealing the march and search route? This is impossible, even the magic transmission will have slight fluctuations, and it is impossible for the mage group accompanying the army not to detect it.
As for his own army being monitored from a distance by the night elves, Spindu briefly had this idea, but then rejected it. He had already sent his scouts fifty kilometers away from the troops. The night elves could only detect the position of the troops by using magic means, but then the mages in the army would definitely find out.
After rejecting all possibilities, the famous mainland general Spindu also fell into confusion. No matter whether it was the wars he had experienced himself or the war cases he learned from the history books on the art of war, he could not find similar scenes.
How can we fight on our own soil and not be able to find the enemy who invaded our country? Spindu sometimes wonders, could this be the territory of the Dark Night Empire? The side with the home field advantage became blind, but the invaders seemed to be able to avoid their own front as if they could predict the outcome.
Marshal Spindu's mistake was that he trusted the magician too much. It's not that there are traitors among the magicians, but the night elves' detection methods are simply difficult for ordinary magicians in Eslazer to detect.
Not to mention the Storm Crow's reconnaissance at high altitude, Illidan rarely lets the Raptor Druids transform to complete reconnaissance missions. It's not that it's not easy to use, but the night elves have a better way.
Illidan led 20,000 huntresses, and the lowest 20,000 were elite huntresses. Each huntress can cast an owl spirit lodged in a tree. This owl spirit cannot be destroyed and is difficult to detect. Unless the tree it rests on is felled, the owl spirit will remain, allowing the night elves to have surrounding vision.
Twenty thousand huntresses equals twenty thousand owl spirits. The 20,000 owl spirits who can obtain a large field of vision around the place of existence are distributed in various places in the western part of the Holy Lion Empire. Every move of the 200,000 forbidden troops led by Marshal Spindu is monitored by the owl spirits scattered everywhere. The soul is monitored.
These owl spirits are not the detection magic on the continent of Eslaze. They are the unique skills of the night elves, and naturally they will not be noticed by ordinary magicians. Therefore, there is a situation where the troops fighting on the local territory are not as well-informed as the invading party.
Let's talk about Illidan. Relying on the reconnaissance effect of the owl spirit, the night elves were able to hide and seek with the Spindu Legion. It's not that Illidan is timid, he's just a little worried about the enemy's strength.
In every previous battle, the night elves had not faced enemies that were ten times more powerful than themselves, and they had won easily. This time they came to the doorstep of the Holy Lion Empire, but they only sent 200,000 troops to fight, which made Illidan feel that there must be something fishy in it.
It took three days for Illidan to finally figure out the strength of the Spindu Legion. And this also made Illidan a little angry - he was still too careful.
The two hundred thousand forbidden troops should be considered a very strong force in the eyes of humans. Their average strength has entered the bronze level, and they are led by a large number of accompanying mages and famous mainland generals. This is probably why the Holy Lion Empire is confident that it can resist the night elves. After all, only the three major empires in the entire human world can produce such an army.
However, this is not enough in front of the night elves. Average strength to enter the bronze level for the first time? This is the strength of ordinary-level archers and huntresses among the night elves. You must know that the evolved Ancient War Tree does not train these two ordinary-level arms at all.
In other words, the so-called elites of the Holy Lion Empire are actually considered eliminated among the night elves.
Even if the number is three times his own, Illidan still has great confidence in taking down these 200,000 enemies with minimal losses. However, after fully understanding the strength of the Spindu Legion, Illidan had other ideas.
In the following period, poor Marshal Spindu still led his troops to wander around the vast western part of the empire. There were constant reports from cities, adventurers, and even caravans on the road that they had discovered traces of the night elves, but the troops had never been able to touch the enemy's tail.
Sometimes, news of the discovery of night elves came from several places at the same time, leaving Marshal Spindu very speechless.
Faced with this situation, he did not dare to divide his troops. According to the intelligence, the Dark Night Empire's army is known for its individual strength. If the troops are divided, they will definitely be defeated individually. It would be safer to gather an army of 200,000 people together and be able to touch the enemy.
After being led by the nose for a long time, Marshal Spindu finally thought of a solution that was not a solution. Anyway, all I could do was follow the enemy and eat dust, which also made my men exhausted, so it would be better to just stay the same and adapt to changes.
Under the orders of Marshal Spindu, 200,000 elite Imperial Guards chose Inno Pass as their base and no longer searched for traces of the Night Elf troops.
Marshal Spindu also figured it out. Anyway, the purpose of being sent was to delay time for the empire to gather more troops to wipe out the Dark Night Empire's invading troops in one fell swoop. Wouldn't it be better if the enemy was willing to play hide-and-seek like this? Before, Spindu had only thought of making further achievements, but now he has figured it out and settled down.
But what he didn't expect was that while his troops were safe, the invasion troops of the Dark Night Empire started jumping around again.
After Spindu led the army into the western part of the empire, families in various cities in the west breathed a sigh of relief, and the supplies previously looted by the night elves were gradually replenished from other places.
Especially the Empire. The army plowed the ground three feet, but the enemies of the Dark Night Empire never showed up, which made everyone think that the enemy was afraid of the famous general Spindu's troops. As a result, the nobles and merchants in various cities in the west began to restore their property and supplies with confidence.
Who would have thought that after Spindu's troops were stationed, the night elves' army appeared again. The supplies that had just been replenished were looted by Illidan. What's damning is that when those night elves left, they left countless looks at the fat sheep, as if they were preparing to harvest "wool" again in the future.
After receiving summons from various cities in the west, Spindu was also dumbfounded. Isn't this general of the Dark Night Empire too insignificant? Is this the rhythm of guerrilla warfare? They really used various cities in the western part of the empire as fat sheep to rob!
Helpless as hell, Spindu really couldn't do anything against the night elves' troops. How to fight if you can't find the enemy? Information asymmetry!
In the end, Spindu could only ask the nobles and merchants in the west not to restore their assets for the time being, and dragged the invasion force of the Dark Night Empire west of Inno Pass.
If the Dark Night Empire's army wants to penetrate deep into the Holy Lion Empire to cause riots and exert pressure, Inno Pass is the place they must pass through. Spindu believed that he was stationed here with 200,000 imperial troops, and he could drag the enemy to the west of the empire no matter what, until more imperial troops arrived.
