"Hei Fan has retreated!"
La Ersi looked somewhat excitedly at the ’unpacking process’ of both sides almost pulling their advance to the fullest, with a faint smile playing at the corners of her mouth: "He has been pushed back, Foster is one skill higher! Although he played the defensive hand, his reaction speed was very fast, not only did he restrict Hei Fan’s scouts through the mobility forces, but he also laid out a supply line during the forward press, with the intention of relocating the entire position forward!"
Lei Er Si nodded, trying to use a tone devoid of subjective inclination: "However, the three group armies on the blue side still maintain their aggression, their retreat is very decisive, and their formation change efficiency is also amazing, the Bifurcated Clamp Killing Formation has transformed into a Roundtail Scorpion-style retreat method!"
"Actually, I think compared to the name ’Roundtail Scorpion’, this retreat method is more fittingly described as ’Tadpole’, after all, the shape does look similar."
La Ersi smacked her lips and casually said: "But it’s useless, placing troops with both breakthrough and long-range combat capabilities at the rear, while it seems like they might counterattack anytime during retreat, can indeed limit the main red force, but the latter was originally unlikely to disengage from the main position anyway, blue side is only cocooning itself."
Lei Er Si blinked, curious: "Cocooning itself... Does sister mean they’ll get dragged to death here? But red side shouldn’t be able to create a ’pocket’ in these conditions, right? As long as they retreat the original way..."
"Suicidal assault by the mobility forces."
La Ersi faintly interrupted her younger sister, her eyes staring unblinkingly at the overhead view with those two somewhat slim yet extremely sharp illusion-inducing ’red whips’, solemnly stating: "Those people are elite troops Foster pulled from various group armies, although their combat power is not extraordinarily high, in simulations, they are assigned unique traits of strong soldiers, such as continuing to follow orders even when their unit is decimated, a rout rate less than one tenth of normal units, and they can execute meticulous operations like the three-man small battle array which heavily tests the commander’s skills."
Lei Er Si promptly reacted, suddenly realizing: "So, red side wants to use the numerical overwhelm of the mobility forces to stall blue side’s steps, achieving high-frequency micro-operations impossible with regular combat? But that kind of thing..."
...
"Theoretically, it can’t be done."
Teresa smiled slightly at Lian’s astonished face, playfully saying: "However, we do have some advantages, like the elite mobility forces I specifically consolidated earlier for ’meticulous operations’, and I possess the capabilities of flexibly utilizing them, drawing out their maximum battle strength, so even if the opponent is whole three group armies, we can definitely try to stall them unexpectedly."
Lian lightly nodded, smiling: "Moreover, you have me with relatively strong mobility, allowing you to issue orders and adjustments freely as your counselor."
"Indeed, senior Lian is very reassuring."
Teresa slightly narrowed her eyes, the delicate arc at the corner of her mouth on the girl’s face could certainly be deemed alluring, softly saying: "But... No."
Though lightly uttering ’Eh’, Lian did not show additional astonishment, after all, Teresa had already mentioned earlier, that Black Vatican Priest was eyeing the red side’s mobility forces.
But even so, Lian still found it difficult to grasp Teresa’s decision.
Just as the two had discussed earlier, the red side’s advantage at this moment is actually quite large, as long as Teresa is willing to engage in instant command which is extremely taxing to ordinary people, instead of continuing macro strategy formulation, and with Lian’s cooperation, they can definitely issue a dozen commands per minute, in confrontations of this frequency, not to mention the commander’s ability, simply the speed disparity between Morning Forgotten Language and Lian ensures blue side won’t match up.
Thus, Teresa undoubtedly has a high probability of stalling the opposing three group armies with the two mobility forces, as long as they can endure until the follow-up forces catch up, even if the Roundtail Scorpion retreat method can buy some additional time, the gradual attrition would only be a matter of time.
Regardless, this is an extremely lucrative deal!
Even if it fails, at most only losing two elite mobility forces, in the realm of over ten group armies, though not entirely painless, it’s definitely not a major concern.
And corresponding to that, even if they can’t drag the opponent to death, as long as they hold until the red side’s advance forces charge forth and get a bite, it’s definitely worthwhile!
This is even under the premise of failure!
If successful, wiping out enemy’s three group armies would absolutely boost own morale significantly, a tangible [boost in morale], strengthening all subordinate forces, and correspondingly, the blue side suffering huge setbacks would have unstable military spirit, thereby creating a substantial combat power gap, laying a solid foundation for subsequent snowballing.
So even if vaguely sensing Teresa might not act, it’s solely due to Lian’s emotional understanding of Teresa and intuition, on a rational level, she completely fails to comprehend why the profound [Witch] by her side makes such a decision.
