After every big wave of rock attack, a wide space would be created, like a void in the middle of the ground. I instantly summoned a group of warriors there to fill this gap and add more chaos to the enemy backline.
At first, this didn’t do anything remarkable or worthy of note. But when the enemy took time to kill my forces, I managed to plant more warriors in other places.
Gradually this became the greatest source of trouble for the enemy. After all, any army would be tightly arranged at the frontline, with slightly loose formation at the backline.
So hitting this unprepared backline and in such a hard way to control, adding to it the help of the falling rocks at the forces down below, things started to look better for my side.
Gradually the forces scattered in the middle of the enemy managed to clear lots of them, and eventually they started to merge together and form bigger sized forces.
But they were too far away from my main bigger force. As the forces at the entrance got such an advantage, they started to expand the area under their control, allowing for more outside forces to come in.
After four more hours, the part around the pass inside the basin was totally under our control. The enemy was pushed so far back in the depth of the basin.
And So I had to stop using the rock tactic, moving the battle over the big forces of the enemy..
[Be ready to come inside] as things turned out this way, it was time to pull back all the three generals with their forces.
[Are you finally done? Can I go now?] The jumper seemed pretty annoyed with what he was doing here.
This dude was so impatient to go out and look for more monsters and basins like this.
[Just use the chaos by the retreat of all the forces and move] I sent to him, [Hand over your forces to help the other two]
[Like this they will know I’m gone!] he paused, [I’ll first recall my chariot, go with my army and will appoint one of the warriors you called here to lead them]
[Nice trick. But will that dude be enough to handle the army?]
I got what he wanted to do here. He wanted to trick the enemy into believing he was still here. If he listened to my orders from before, then the enemy would know of his absence and start looking for him.
But this way he wouldn’t arouse any suspicions inside of them. His army would be there, and his chariot would remain hidden.
Chariots were like flagships, a remarkable presence of my generals anywhere.
It was an avoidable side effect of having these chariots.
[You don’t know how fierce those dudes are! Sigh! You are just damn lucky!]
[Stop envying me and start working for yourself even once!] I rolled my eyes. This dude was always eyeing my things like a hungry tiger.
[I’ll start doing my part now. Don’t take your time here and find me when I send you my location]
I closed the chat without saying anything back to him. We both agreed upon meeting when he arrived at the capital, not at finding the location of the other beasts.
“Stop them!”
“Don’t let them in!”
As the three armies were coming inside the basin, their enemies were drawing close enough for me to hear their loud shouts.
“They look energetic,” I laughed before sending my next instructions for the two generals.
[You will handle the frontline] I sent to the spearhead, before sending another to Sara, [You will handle the backline for now. Make your forces stay inside the basin all the time]
[But shouldn’t Sara handle the frontline? She will do better than me] the spearhead sent, and I could only sigh.
[Just do as I say] I stressed over this. After all, such an arrangement was temporary.
[If I stayed all the time back, I won’t be able to help the frontline!] Sara also sent out her worries.
[It’s just temporary. Just make sure your forces stay inside the basin all the time]
[Got it!]
As I closed the chat with them, I focused again over those annoying things flying after me.
“Time to use bigger weapons then,” they lost almost all their forts and around one fourth of their islands. But they never stopped chasing me, or releasing their attacks after me.
Just when I sent the order over to my two generals, the forts that were chasing them joined the chase after me.
But it didn’t matter that much. After all these forts were destroyed by more than half thanks to my flying dragons and monsters.
As the forts joined the forces chasing after me, my flying force also joined me. But I preferred to send them to help the frontline instead.
?[0??]? Staying by my side wasn’t going to be a good thing. The enemy could easily target them and I wouldn’t be able to defend them at all.
Not to mention that they wouldn’t deal as much damage as they did to the forts. The islands’ got a stronger shield, and I got the right weapon to smash it!
“Crushing Wave!”
I held my pillar in my right hand, raised it towards the direction of the islands and forts running after me. I aimed at the centre while all of sudden stopping my chariot from moving.
I did it all of sudden, without any warning, taking everyone chasing me by surprise.
But the bigger surprise was in my next attack. The pillar’s skill would release an attack that would turn an area of one hundred metre width and five hundred length into an explosive area for the entire five minutes.
And the best part was in my ability to control its direction.
So just as the chariot of mine got stopped, the islands and forts crossed the large distance between the two of us in a blink of an eye.
