Lords of All: The Moving Castle of the Dead

The old commander-in-chief is an old commander-in-chief after all, and he has very rich combat experience.

He was a rat-man who had survived the war years, and had experienced many more battles than the young rat-men of today.

For the younger generation of ratmen who like to rely entirely on technological crushing to fight, the ratman commander prefers to use various strategic techniques.

Guerrilla and ambush, coupled with the advanced weapons of the rat people, really brought a lot of trouble to Li Ziyu.

The old commander is very familiar with the Ratman territory. Before launching an attack, he will send people to monitor the movements of the undead, then hold a combat meeting, deduce predictions, formulate plans, and then send various ratmen units to prepare in advance to ambush and raid the undead army.

That is to say, there are too many undead, otherwise it would be easy for the old commander to use guerrilla tactics to defeat him.

The main thing is to be invisible and run away after hitting.

There are not many hiding places in the wilderness, unlike jungles, mountains and other environments. In many places, there are just some low withered grass and scattered stones. But even in such an environment, the Rat Man can still make great use of guerrillas. Completely thanks to their innate skill Ambush.

Apparently there was nothing there, but as soon as the undead passed by, a group of rat men would suddenly appear and attack with shouts.

By the time the undead regained their composure, the rat people had already run away, making it impossible for them to catch up.

The ratmen's results were very good. They killed many undead without taking any damage, which was much more comfortable than fighting the undead on a frontal battlefield.

Such results surprised the younger generation of ratmen. They never thought that the battle could be fought like this.

After the Skaven gained a foothold in the central area and entered the era of great technological development, they gave up their previous fighting methods, believing that the previous methods were outdated and worthless. The Skaven's scientific and technological power was enough to support them and others. Races engage in head-on war.

The small-scale battles that occurred from time to time did confirm this.

With the support of powerful weapons, they can always take advantage in small-scale battles, constantly deepening the idea that "a head-on confrontation will definitely win."

The idea that "a head-on confrontation will definitely win" has increased the rat race's racial confidence.

This is also the reason why when the ratmen faced off against the undead in the early stage, they were not afraid at all, they were just tough.

The younger generation of ratmen think so, but the old commander doesn't think so.

In the era when he was active, the Ratmen were far from strong enough. In terms of physical fitness, the Ratmen had no advantage at all and needed to build city walls to resist attacks from other enemies.

But city walls cannot be built overnight. City-states are not that easy to build, and people will not just watch you build a city-state.

The Rat People were faced with the dilemma of building a city on the one hand, and defending against the outside world on the other.

On the frontal battlefield, the fight was really confusing.

In almost every head-on battle, the Ratmen were able to inflict 800 losses on the enemy and 1,200 losses on me.

If it weren't for the large population of the Ratmen, they would have died long ago.

Unable to gain an advantage on the frontal battlefield, the Ratmen learned from the experience and changed their tactics.

It can be said that the fighting methods of the rat people were all experimented with the lives of their ancestors.

Every fighting method passed down, no matter how simple it is, means the death of countless ratmen.

This is how the old commander came out step by step. He also licked blood from the edge of his knife. He was a man who rolled among the dead. He had seen too many deaths and injuries.

After the rat race developed, they forgot the fighting methods of their ancestors. This was an extremely stupid behavior in the eyes of the old commander.

The guerrilla tactics of the Ratmen are a very classic and one of the fundamental tactics of the Ratmen.

It's a pity that the Ratmen now have abandoned such tactics and only like to fight head-on.

An army of 600,000 is fighting against tens of millions of undead. No matter how tough it is, they can't win.

In order to make his troops more obedient, the old commander took them to Taker to let them suffer a defeat and recognize the reality.

Being tough will really kill you.

Outstanding effect.

Now the private soldiers of the nobles are very obedient.

The old commander-in-chief will follow his command, and he will fight wherever he says and how he will fight.

This made the old commander very happy.

The purpose of his combat meeting was not to listen to the opinions of other young officers, but to tell them the fighting methods he knew and to let them not forget the classic tactics of the rat people.

Under the old commander's layout, many undead were indeed killed. This is a fact, an indelible fact, which proves that the previous tactics are still effective.

Under the command of the old commander, the young officers gained confidence again after winning one victory after another.

Compared to the young officers, the old commander was not so optimistic. As the person standing tallest, he could see clearly that this was an unwinnable battle. All they could do was try to hold back the undead.

The difference is too great.

Even if the Skaven's equipment is more advanced, it cannot make up for this numerical difference.

In particular, the undead have many characteristics that make him feel scared. For example, the undead can continue to move and will not feel tired. They do not need to rest or eat. They will become stronger at night. They can easily find out. Hiding creatures don't have many weaknesses of their own, and if you don't smash their heads, it won't have much of an impact on them, etc.

After all the comparisons, the only conclusion the old commander could draw was that they would lose.

Guerrilla and ambush tactics can only bring trouble to the undead, but cannot truly solve the crisis.

The old commander-in-chief was thinking about causing trouble for the undead army, and Li Ziyu was also having a headache.

He rubbed his temples and frowned.

"Ah, guerrilla warfare..."

This tactic is so classic and familiar. Who doesn’t know this famous tactic?

Li Ziyu never expected that one day this tactic would be applied to him.

It’s not easy to solve.

In the past few days, the Ratmen had been attacking the undead army, but it was not easy to find anyone, which gave him a headache.

It can be said that attacking the troops rushing to the battlefield is not a big problem.

The biggest problem lies in the siege.

The fight here was lively, and a group of ratmen suddenly ran out from behind, armed with various long-range weapons, and they started beating randomly, which directly disrupted the rhythm of the undead attack.

This was not what Li Ziyu had guessed, but it had happened several times recently. As a result, he had not captured a single city-state after leaving Tucker.

Look for the rat army, but you can't find it yet.

He had already used the Eye of the Undead, but all he could find were scattered troops. The Undead had killed a few in the past, but to no avail. The Ratmen were determined to guerrilla, ambush, and lose a few teams. They didn't care. Eighteen hundred people.

There was no main force at all, it was completely dispersed, and the rat tribe's combat center could not be found.

The other party's commander-in-chief this time is not simple.

Li Ziyu felt very uncomfortable. The previous encounters were all head-on battles, and the outcome was determined by the end of the fight.

This time I met a master.

They don't confront you head-on, they just attack you secretly.

No matter what, the weapons and equipment of the rat people are still very sharp, and long-range weapons can kill low-level undead in large numbers.

Once or twice is fine, but if it happens too many times and the loss is in vain, it becomes a bit uncomfortable.

The Skaven's ambush skills were used to perfection.

The offensive was delayed.

The army of tens of millions of undead was just held back by the rat race's attack.

"It's time to activate the backup plan." Seeing Li Ziyu's distressed look, Zhang Peng stepped forward to remind him.

"I really don't want to use that plan, it will bring our mercenary plan into question." Li Ziyu sighed and said helplessly.

The normal plan is to use a massive army of undead to push them across.

But when that plan gets thwarted, there's a backup plan available.

The Ratmen rented a large number of undead legions from Li Ziyu. These undead legions are now scattered in the Ratmen's territory.

Once they receive Li Ziyu's summons, these undead legions will quickly assemble and attack the Ratmen from within, causing them to disintegrate internally.

There is a drawback here, which is that it will make other races distrustful of the hired undead army.

After all, if the undead can do this to the Ratmen, they can do it to other races.

Li Ziyu is not ready to go to war with all the races in the central zone.

He can deal with the Ratmen, but if he goes up against two powerful tribes, his strength may not be enough.

"Then do you have any other plans?" Zhang Peng also knew that Li Ziyu had nothing to do now. If other city-states could not push forward, he could only activate the backup plan.

"I'll try and talk about it later." Li Ziyu shook his head, still not planning to use the backup plan. He felt it wasn't the right time yet.

I don't believe that just a few hundred thousand rat people can really stop tens of millions of undead.

The undead tribe has a lot of technology, and if they are not all available, there is no technology that can break the rat-human ambush.

The plan to attack the city-state continued. Skeleton Knights and Evil Spirit Rangers were sent out to search for traces of the Ratmen army, eliminate those discovered Ratmen troops, and reduce their ambush capabilities.

Li Ziyu began to search for a way out of the current predicament in the vast undead technology.

The undead race is an extremely terrifying race in history. With the power of a clan, it can sweep across the world and is known as a natural disaster.

How could the mighty natural disaster be stopped by the Rat Man?

While searching for technology, Li Ziyu lit up more technologies.

【Mechanical Evil Bulldog】

[Category: Mechanical Undead]

[Equipment: Dog Armor, Psychic Detector, Life Scanner]

[Weapon: Steam-powered machine gun]

[Introduction: The mechanical undead race learns from the loyal evil dogs developed by other races. Their role is to detect and track. The evil fierce dogs are modified from animal undead, and mechanical technology is used to enhance their detection capabilities. PS: In fact, they are not necessarily in animal form. This is simply the bad taste of the undead. 】

[Requirements: 20 metal plates, 10 hoses, 1 psychic core...]

This is a new unit unlocked by Li Ziyu, an auxiliary undead.

The evil bulldogs are actually undead animals such as wolves and dogs that were transformed from the tombs of alien species. There is nothing special about them.

But obviously, the undead's minds have always been very crooked. When they discovered that humans and other races are accustomed to taming wolves, wild boars and other animals, and let these domesticated animals become their helpers, the undead felt that they needed it too.

Thus, the Mechanical Evil Bulldog was born.

This thing is completely the target human hunting dog.

But as we all know, the undead have no ears, no noses, and no tongues. In order to allow them to perform better, psychic detectors and life scanners are specially installed, allowing them to detect farther than ordinary undead. place.

It has to be said that these additional installations still have their uses. Some things that other undead cannot find, the mechanical evil dog can find.

Li Ziyu didn't know if the mechanical evil dog could deal with the rat tribe's ambush tactics. If it worked or not, let's give it a try.

Soon, 10,000 mechanical evil dogs were manufactured and assigned to the evil rangers and skeleton knights to search for traces of the rat army.

The mechanical evil dogs are indeed useful. Although they still cannot see through the ambush, they can detect the trajectory and direction of the rat men's movement, pointing out the way for the Skeleton Knight and the evil ranger.

The Skaven army is in trouble.

The success of continuous guerrillas and ambushes reduced their vigilance a lot.

They feel that the undead are easy to deal with, and as long as they follow the commander's plan, they can do whatever they want.

Then, these guys were approached by the mechanical evil bulldog.

Along with them, there are also skeleton knights and evil ghost rangers.

Suddenly, many Skaven teams suffered.

After losing tens of thousands of people, the Skaven team gave up and continued guerrilla warfare. They were frightened by the mechanical evil dogs and thought their ambush tactics had lost their effect.

The dispersed guerrillas returned, regrouped, and hid, waiting for the commander to make new plans.

The old commander had his own means of gathering intelligence, and he keenly discovered that the newly emerged dog-shaped undead were the key to breaking his tactics.

Ambush still works, and the canine undead are looking for them through their tracks.

"Smart guy." The old commander remained calm and commented cheerfully.

He was not in a hurry. He had never seen such an enemy on the battlefield before.

Since simple guerrillas and raids don't work, let's try another method.

It's not like the Ratmen only have one talent: ambush, they also have to use other talents, such as... digging holes.

If you are being tracked on the ground, then open up a battlefield underground.

Underground, the Skaven had an even greater advantage.

They can dig out passages quickly, which is a special skill of the rat people.

So a new round of guerrillas and ambushes began, this time from underground.

The Ratmen are very smart. They dug tunnels and deliberately made the tunnel entrance very small, only allowing one Ratman to pass through.

Skaven are generally not tall and relatively thin.

Where they could get in, the mechanical evil dog could barely get in even if he tried hard, but the Skeleton Knight would definitely not be able to get in, even if he dismounted and bent down.

The mechanical evil dog that enters the tunnel will be warmly welcomed by the rat people who have been waiting for it, and will be beaten to pieces.

"What the hell! What the hell is this about the Ratmen? After the guerrilla warfare, they will just fight in the tunnels, right?"

"It's never over!"

Li Ziyu shouted angrily.

He brought out the mechanical evil dog and destroyed the opponent's guerrilla tactics. Now that he has switched to tunnel fighting, he has no good solution.

The entrance to the tunnel is too small, making it difficult for the undead to enter.

Even after entering, the space inside is not large and can only accommodate three ratmen walking side by side at most.

This is acceptable for the undead, but the main problem is that they cannot stretch or stand up straight!

The rat people are at home in such an environment, but when the undead enter the tunnel, their lives are bound.

Li Ziyu looked at Zhang Peng silently.

"Don't look at me. Although my people are gopher people, I feel that my gopher people can't defeat those rats. Their fighting power is much stronger than that of my people." Seeing Li Ziyu's eyes, Zhang Peng knew what he was thinking and blocked what he wanted to say.

The real strength of the gopher people is not in frontal combat.

Instead, various traps and ambushes are laid out through excavated passages underground. This is the normal fighting method.

With a strong front, he really can't defeat the Rat Man.

"Peng, things are like this. I don't have much else to do. You go up first and let your people go up first. At least they are underground, right." Li Ziyu said helplessly.
