Chapter 1624 Chapter 1625 Big changes in the situation

Of course, he couldn't tell whether Ludd did it intentionally or accidentally. In short, when the 3rd Elf Army also began to retreat, at least one-fifth of the Elf troops remained in place waiting for orders.

These elven rearguards are destined to have no hope of breaking out. Together with the left wing troops of the dwarf 8th Army on their flanks, they will become lambs to be slaughtered in the huge encirclement of the Tang army.

The Tang army caught the collapsing elven troops and left enough troops to deal with the dwarves and elves who did not retreat. The chase started so suddenly that no one expected it.

Binghan I couldn't even believe that his troops had been defeated. As soon as he got the news, he wanted to check with Van Kruse and Truman to verify the situation.

But when he found that he could not contact the two people, he probably guessed that everything might be true: his troops had been defeated, and even if the 7th Army and the 10th Army had rushed to the front line, there was no way to reverse the defeat.

Now he didn't even know what he should do to stop the loss: now there was a huge gap in the entire front. From the left wing of the 8th Army to the west coastline, hundreds of kilometers of defense line were gone.

To plug this gap, at least two to three more army groups must be invested, and this is only the most basic number! In fact, two group armies are not enough at all, and even five group armies may not be enough!

You must know that this line of defense was previously stationed by two and a half armies: the 2nd and 3rd armies of the elves, and the 8th army of the dwarves.

It only took the Tang army less than three days to defeat these two and a half armies! If you want to stabilize this line of defense, you must invest at least three, four or even five armies!

Even five armies are unreliable, because as the Tang Army moves south, the length of this defense line is increasing! Therefore, the number of troops to fill the line is constantly increasing!

Thinking of this, Binghan I even began to hate the elves: the defeat of these elven troops directly caused the war situation in the Binghan Empire to collapse.

Of course, he would definitely not blame the failure on the 8th Army's position being breached, nor would he reflect on why the previous battles had gone so poorly.

He would just keep blaming the elves for their cowardice, and began to imagine that his troops could block this sudden huge hole as soon as possible.

Now he has two newly formed armies, the 11th and 12th, that can be put into combat. The combat effectiveness of these two units is not guaranteed, and their weapons and equipment are also very average.

But now he could only rely on such line-filling troops, so he immediately ordered the two troops to move laterally to threaten the southward Tang Army from the flanks as soon as possible and stabilize the battle situation.

At this moment, he no longer had the mind to care about such illusory issues as the Tang Army's maintenance of Everwinter City. All he could think about now was to quickly establish a solid line of defense and stabilize the situation as soon as possible.

As the war progresses, the Dwarf Empire has lost one-fifth of its territory, and the Tang Army's aircraft can also cover the rest... If it continues to be trapped and lost like this, the Ice Empire will be completely finished.

From Binghan I's point of view, the more realistic plan now is to gather troops as soon as possible, stabilize the defense line, and then build a solid defense line to drag the war into a relatively slow pace.

As long as both sides continue to consume, the Tang Empire will have to calculate the cost of continuing the war. When the costs of war outweigh the benefits, it is possible for Tang to end the war.

All in all, this is at least a relatively achievable goal. In the past, the coalition forces were focused on the plan to recapture Everwinter City, but now it seems that their plans are unreliable. Van Cruz had already exceeded his speed at this time: he drove lightly and didn't even bring many of his own guards, so he fled southward and rushed towards Saint-Lo.

In order to ensure his own safety, he did not even turn on his radio equipment and did not ask about the life and death of his troops.

Because he knew that once his position was exposed, the Tang Army's attack would follow: whether it was Tang's special forces flying in helicopters or guided weapons falling from the sky, they might kill him.

So he shut down all communications and fled for more than 150 kilometers before finally stabilizing his position. It was also at this time that he finally remembered that he was still the commander of the 2nd Army.

So he sent out his closest men and began to use the most efficient way to collect the nearby broken troops: these men were ordered to go north and gather the broken troops they could find, hoping to scrape together some troops.

As a result, using this method, Fancruz managed to gather more than 3000 people in two days. This was because the elves were easier to distinguish and find on the land of the dwarves.

The completely defeated Elf 2nd Army will definitely not be able to regain its combat effectiveness in a short time. The actual situation of the 3rd Army is not much better than that of the 2nd Army.

Ludd's whereabouts are still unknown. Only a few of the hundreds of thousands of elven troops were killed in the battle, but thousands were captured.

The Tang army went south as if traveling, appeasing the local dwarf people and catching elven prisoners everywhere. In five days, they traveled south for more than 200 kilometers.

Hogg was almost beside himself with joy: his 1st Army captured at least 10 elven troops with almost no effort, captured prisoners all the way south, and swept away all the enemy forces in front of him with zero casualties.

The hero of this battle was naturally the newly arrived 11th Army, and Ying'an was praised by Tang Mo via phone. The tactical detour that forced the Elf troops to abandon their positions and begin to collapse was a classic. After this battle, the Tang Army finally established a firm foothold on the Eastern Continent.

In order to cooperate with the army's attack, Bernard personally led the navy's main fleet southward, approaching Rewind Port to seek a decisive naval battle once and for all.

The navy's action plan this time is also very simple: annihilate the elves and dwarves' maritime fleets, destroy the Holy Lo, Rewind Port and Ossa military ports, and push back the enemy's remaining maritime forces further south to ensure the Tang army's sea lines of communication. Absolutely safe.

For the navy, this plan is very simple. If it were not for the lack of land airports before and the naval aviation force focused most of its energy on covering the landing troops, they would have been able to do this long ago.

Now that the Tang Army had stabilized the land battle situation, the navy was finally able to spare its energy and increase strength against their opponents.
