v2 Chapter 685： 500 meters is too far

However, the orc forward commander still cautiously sent a pathfinding team with only ten people in front of the forward troops he led. And he also believed that the troops on the left and right wings of the legion would definitely make the same decision as him.

For the pathfinding team sent this time, the orc forward commander did not dare to let them go too far, because the previous pathfinding team already had two teams of 20 heroic cavalry soldiers. Died without a sound.

So this time, the orc striker commander repeatedly asked the pathfinding team that they are absolutely not allowed to go beyond the distance of 500 meters from the striker's main force. Within Eversong Forest, quickly discover and respond to and support them. The orc forward commander thought that the black owl that flew up just now must have been disturbed by the warriors of the Pathfinder Team.

The orc forward commander turned his head and said to the adjutant who was following behind him, let him pass down the order to let everyone in the army be more vigilant, because he feels a little restless today, but he doesn't know why, so he still feels Be careful.

Since the appearance of this owl, the orc forward commander has realized that today will not be so smooth, but as for the reason, he really does not need a reason, because he can't think of a reason. intuition.

After passing down the order, the orc forward commander felt a little more at ease. No matter what happened, he fully believed that his troops would be able to deal with it. The main force of the legion is less than five kilometers away.

Is five kilometers far? Not far! For a legion of pure cavalry, five kilometers is really not a long distance, not to mention that I have more than 600 elite wolf cavalry under my command!

These are 600 people, not 600 sheep. The enemy wants to wipe out so many heavily armed cavalry in an instant. The orc commander really doesn't believe how many people can easily do it.

His troop was the most elite troop in the legion, even in the entire orc tribe, it was also one of the rare and strongest troops, and this was the most confident support in the heart of the orc forward commander.

Quel'Thalas, in a dense forest 30 kilometers south of the eastern temple in the Southern Eversong Forest, hundreds of military tents are densely packed, but if you look from outside the forest, you can't see any of them. Mark of.

In one of the largest military tents among these hundreds of military tents, Cirvanas was looking at the military map intently.

"Report!" Suddenly, a report sounded from outside the military tent.

"Come in." Cirvanas said calmly, looking back at the military map.

The curtain of the military tent was lifted, and a female ranger in the emerald green Windrunner formal suit walked in.

"The news came from the scouts in front that the orc striker had arrived at the sixth area, and they sent another ten-member pathfinding team, but the orc pathfinder team acted very cautiously, and they kept keeping a distance of five hundred At a distance of about 10 meters, the reconnaissance team cannot completely wipe out the enemy's pathfinding team in such a short period of time." The female ranger reported neatly.

"Five hundred meters?" Cirvanas sighed.

The main force is 500 meters forward. This distance is not too short for ordinary infantry, but for cavalry, this distance is indeed conservative enough.

It seems that these orcs are not so proud and arrogant, and became conservative so quickly, Cirvanas thought to himself.

Cirvanas made the best use of it before. The high elves completely took advantage of aerial reconnaissance and familiarity with the terrain. Before the main force of the orcs reacted, they easily ate seven or eight of the orc wolves who came out to explore the way. Cavalry Pathfinder Squad.

These orc pathfinding teams consisted of the enemy's forwards, as well as the left and right flanks. Every time the high elves attacked, they quickly devoured them with absolute superiority and then fled away immediately. Therefore, the high elves did not suffer any casualties.

But the result of such a battle is actually not that big, and only 70 or 80 enemy wolf cavalry were eaten in total. Now those orcs are more cautious, and the distance between the pathfinding team and the main force is getting closer and closer.

"We have to eat them at 500 meters!" Cirvanas said: "I want their forwards and the pathfinding teams on the left and right wings to be compressed to less than 200 meters away from their main force, 500 meters is too far !"

The female ranger who came in to report smiled slightly, and she knew that her officer would definitely say that. Officer Cirvanas's temper is not so easy to talk to, but she just smiled and then stopped saying a word. Wait for Chief Sylvanas to issue a new order.

"How many scouts do we have there?" Sylvanas asked.

"Five owl rangers, thirty mountain lion night walkers!" The female ranger who came in to report said, "Forty mountain division night walkers have just been transferred to the enemy's left flank to ambush and kill the enemy's pathfinding team Now, UU Reading may not be able to come back in time."

Cirvanas stretched out a hand, put it on the temporary desk in the military tent, and pressed her chin with the back of her hand, she was thinking...

Thirty-five high elf rangers, plus the mountain lion battle pet, it is not difficult to eliminate a ten-man pathfinding team of orcs, the difficulty is that they cannot be wiped out silently and cleanly.

These orc wolf cavalry are well equipped, basically full-body plate armor, and their personal protection is very high, which makes the direct damage of the bows and arrows of high elf rangers below the middle level to these orcs extremely limited. With the addition of units, it is obviously not so easy to quickly eliminate these orc pathfinding teams.

The scouts of the high elves were not afraid that the members of the orc pathfinding team would flee back. In fact, it was impossible for the orc wolf cavalry pathfinding team to escape back to the main force under the concussion shooting of more than thirty rangers. middle.

The high elf scouts were worried that they would not be able to completely kill all of these orc pathfinding teams before the main enemy striker came to support them.

Because 500 meters is not too short for infantry, but for cavalry, it is just a matter of messages. As long as those orc wolf cavalry pathfinding teams are attacked, they will definitely send out an enemy signal as soon as possible to notify the main force behind for support.

With the speed of the wolf cavalry, the distance of 500 meters is really not that far. Even if the enemy only has 20 or 30 cavalry coming to support at full speed, the attack of the high elf scouts will be forced to stop and quickly flee away.
