In this situation, the only thing that Bakas is happy about is that the recent bad battle situation did not make their Highness Ivan feel annoyed.
Even the other party has shown support for him many times in recent communications. This trust moved Bakas quite a bit.
Now facing such a situation where he had to retreat, Bakas couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, a feeling of ashamed of trusting Ivan and living up to Ivan's expectations.
But what Bakas didn't know was that although there was no good news coming back from the front line recently, Ivan's mood was extremely calm, and even compared to the initial time, he was much more relaxed.
Because according to the latest feedback, along with the war, the emotions of their elven people have been greatly relieved.
On the one hand, it was naturally because of his wave of "complying with public opinion" that he launched a war with the Black Iron Empire, and took the initiative to attack, so that the excited people were satisfied with his actions.
On the other hand, with the progress of the war, the people gradually realized the price this war brought to them...
This is not a war that can be easily won. In the process of the war, they are also constantly paying the price. Countless clansmen lost their precious lives in the war, and countless clansmen lost their close relatives.
At the same time, the war also caused the domestic materials to become somewhat scarce, which directly had a serious impact on their lives.
At this price, the voices of those who advocated war in the Elf Kingdom have become significantly smaller, and even in turn, some voices who want to stop the war have begun to appear.
Needless to say, this is exactly what Ivan would love to see.
After all, their elves are not a warlike race.
At present, Ivan's initial purpose has undoubtedly been achieved.
However, this does not mean that the troubles he needs to face next are less.
In the current situation, it is not an easy thing to want a truce.
Originally, according to Ivan's idea, it was hoped that the Seven Star Alliance's alliance committee could send someone out to stop it.
But as the current chairman of the Alliance Committee, Ye An's previous actions basically eliminated this possibility.
Although he didn't have much contact with Ye An, even Ivan knew that their new chairman after Ye Tianxiong attached great importance to his face.
After all the words to sanction the Black Iron Empire had been released at that time, at this juncture, the other party would definitely not be able to hold back his face to stop it.
Therefore, this matter, I am afraid it depends on them.
According to Ivan's idea, this war may not need a clear stop, they just need to find the opportunity to retreat.
After withdrawing to their own border, they still have the confidence to hold on to their home field advantage.
Not to mention that as soon as they withdraw, the Black Iron Empire on the opposite side may not dare to send a large army on an expedition to advance all the way.
After all, the current situation in the known universe is still very sensitive.
The Black Iron Empire has just experienced the change of power, let's not talk about it, let's talk about resources, because of the front line, the Black Iron Empire paid a large price to pay compensation before, and the domestic situation may not be optimistic.
And they fought frequently before and consumed each other, which further aggravated each other's situation.
At the same time, this also made Ivan more convinced that as long as they withdraw their troops, the Black Iron Empire, considering its own situation, will most likely not launch an expedition at risk.
In this way, both of them can complete the truce in disguise.
As for what the war will turn into after that, Ivan has no idea for the time being, and at the same time he has no way to imagine it.
In the end, this kind of thing can only be adapted to the needs of the people. No one knows what will happen after that. Who can count everything, step by step, in place?
With this thought in mind, looking at the 'retreat request' sent by General Bakas in his hand, Ivan had no reason not to agree.
As a matter of fact, Ivan gave General Bakas the arbitrary power to fight on the front line.
After all, he also knew that the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly. If everything had to be reported, and he made a decision before taking action, then this battle would most likely be impossible to fight.
It was impossible for General Bakas to be unaware of this, so at the same time that he issued this 'retreat request' to Ivan, General Bakas had already commanded his army and began to retreat.
Under this premise, the reason why General Bakas, who has the sovereign power, sent back such a 'request for withdrawal' is actually very simple.
To put it bluntly, ‘you give me trust, then I give you respect! ’
Doctrine is the trust Ivan gave to General Bakas, so these reports are the respect that General Bakas gave Ivan.
Under the command of Bakas, at the beginning, the retreat of the elf army went smoothly, but after that, the black iron army seemed to be aware of it.
Even if the Black Iron Army did not plan to go on an expedition at all, as Ivan expected, it did not mean that the Black Iron Army would be willing to let them go.
Before the elf army retreated to the border and gained home field advantage, it would be more beneficial for them to hit them **** the way.
The black iron army, which has been gaining momentum for a long time, is now being dispatched strongly, and its momentum is like an evil beast coming out of the cage, and it is extremely fierce!
Even when General Bakas was mentally prepared, the pressure to deal with it was multiplied, and his own losses continued to grow.
At this juncture, the morale of the army has reached a critical point. The current situation makes the soldiers feel hopeless, which directly causes some troops to lose their fighting spirit and even flee.
Seriously, such a thing has never happened in an army of elves.
This is inseparable from the strong fighting power of the elves and their natural pride.
But at the same time, the more important reason is undoubtedly because they have too little actual combat experience with such opponents.
Although General Bakas had in mind in advance and prepared for the low morale of the army, he never thought that the soldiers of their elven tribe would make such a thing as a flight.
The state obviously exceeded expectations, and General Bakas was caught off guard for a while.
The battle situation that could have been planned and dealt with was completely lost due to the occurrence of this situation.
Seeing that the elf army is about to be completely defeated by the black iron army because of this sudden situation.
Just at the critical moment, an azure light beam like a laser ray suddenly pierced through the void and swept over.
With a sweep, it immediately showed the amazing destructive power of the destruction level, causing the black iron fleet, which had spread out its fire formation, to be engulfed by an astonishing series of explosions on the spot.
In the midst of this violent explosion, the eldest prince, Ajel, appeared on the battlefield in a military uniform with a spirit dragon!
