Every time I come home, my wife is making garbage

Chapter 270: Deployment
The elves have a sparse population; that's mentioned in textbooks and will be tested on.

It’s not that Akadula underestimated the enemy, but the elves really couldn’t have that many people. An elf village would have at most two hundred people.

No matter how powerful the elves are, they cannot defeat a regular army of ten ships.

At this moment, the lookout shouted loudly: "General! We have been discovered by the elves' dragon eagle archers."

Akadula looked up and saw, as expected, a dragon eagle archer appeared in the sky ahead. He could see the dragon eagle archer with his naked eyes, so the elves, whose eyesight was better than that of humans, could definitely see the fleet on the sea.

Akadula couldn't help but spit and said, "The elves are really alert. It's still nearly a day's journey from here to the elf village, right? Their scouts actually flew so far to scout. It seems that a sneak attack is impossible."

"It would be great to have an air force." The adjutant couldn't help but sigh, "Our Desert Kingdom lacks flying mounts, so we can't form an air force."

Akadullah: "Humph! It's no big deal if we don't have an air force. Since we've been detected, let's move forward with all our strength."

At a command, the Desert Kingdom's fleet accelerated towards the Elf Village.

In the front were two light sailing ships for exploration, and behind them were ten 30-meter-long main warships, fully loaded with troops and looking very aggressive.
-
"Here they come! The fleet of the Desert Kingdom is coming." The Dragon Eagle Archer descended from the sky. As soon as he landed, he could not wait to shout, "Prepare for battle."

The elf village was activated all of a sudden, and everyone began preparing for battle.

The old lady walked through the chaotic crowd and came to Zhang Jingyi: "Mr. Zhang, how about you be the commander-in-chief of this battle?"

Zhang Jingyi quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "To be honest, I am not very good at fighting! I am just an ordinary small businessman."

Elf Granny: "Merchants are true, but ordinary ones are nonsense. If there were only elves here, I would be the one commanding the battle. But now there are many subhuman races, and they all gathered together because of you, so of course you should be the one commanding them."

Zhang Jingyi: “…”

Elizabeth leaned close to his ear and said in a low voice that only he could hear, "Husband, you should accept the responsibilities of the commander. It doesn't matter if you can't fight. It's not convenient for me to reveal my identity right now, and it's not appropriate for me to come out and command. It's best for you to help me. Antonio will help you with strategies, and you only need to give orders when the time comes."

Zhang Jingyi nodded: "Okay, then I will be the commander. Elf Chief Grandma, this is your home ground after all, you have to assist me in commanding."

The old elf lady smiled. With the wisdom of the elves, she could tell at a glance that Elizabeth and Antonio standing behind Zhang Jingyi were not ordinary people either.

The old lady simply walked over to Antonio, and the old man and the old lady stood side by side: "Let's come up with some ideas together."

Antonio quickly bowed and said, "Please don't be like this. I am less than seventy years old, and you are at least eight hundred years old. I still have a lot to learn from you."

The old lady sighed, "I have spent more than half of my eight hundred years hiding in the Elf Village. I may not know the outside world as well as you do. We, the elves, have been complacent for too long... A thousand years ago, when we fought against the Demon King's army together with the heroes, we might really be the smartest race, but now, I dare not say that."

"Stop bragging about business and make arrangements quickly. The Desert Kingdom's fleet will arrive in half a day."

"Ok!"

"Wolves, please line up here..."

"There is a defensive magic circle here! We can deploy fewer troops to lure the enemy's landing troops in."

"Ratmen army, please deploy here. You have the largest number of people and are most suitable for this forest."

"Druids, please turn into seals and dive into the sea to ambush." ​​The two elders made suggestions, and Zhang Jingyi read them out! All done!
-
Two light sailing ships used for reconnaissance were the first to come into everyone's sight.

The Desert Kingdom did not hide or conceal, it came head-on.

The light sailing ships had little combat power, no guns and no large number of soldiers on board. They were just spinning in the open sea and had no intention of coming closer.

The Black Hammer dwarves on a "Zhang Jingyi warship" hiding in the bay were unhappy. One dwarf shouted, "Let's rush out and kill these two scouts."

"Bang!" Chief Oric punched him and knocked him to the ground. "War is not a fight in a tavern. Our four warships are secret weapons prepared by His Majesty the King. We cannot expose them to the enemy scouts right from the start. Be patient and hide well."

The dwarf held his head and squatted down. "Ahhh! Chief, are we really suitable to stay on the boat? I hate swimming, and I also hate lying in ambush and waiting for the opportunity. Let's rush to the front."

Orrick was a little embarrassed: "Well... ahem... actually I agree with you, but in our village, the only people who know how to operate the magic cannon are our dwarves. Do you think that if we let the druids, werewolves and cats operate the cannon, can they handle it?"

The dwarves: “…”

indeed!

this is a big problem.

The dwarves were feeling depressed when they saw a group of elves jumping onto the ship from the shore. The leader, an elf blacksmith, waved at them and said, "Mr. Zhang ordered us to take over the operation of the warship. You can go ashore to the shore defense force. There are coastal artillery guns set up over there."

The dwarves were delighted: "Great!"

A group of dwarves jumped off the warship happily and ran towards the direction of the shore artillery.

At the same time, on the other side of the coast, 50 seals were quietly diving into the water. The chief said to them seriously, "Before the enemy arrives, we must not reveal our whereabouts. Everyone must hold their breath underwater for a long time and are not allowed to surface to expose their bellies."

On the other side, in the mountains and forests a little further away, there was a group of ratmen crowded together.

As a low-level subhuman race, the ratmen had no productivity and extremely low individual combat effectiveness. They held inferior spears that didn't even have metal tips, just sharpened wooden sticks...

The fully armed orcs nearby couldn't help but cast a contemptuous look at the ratmen: "Hey, I'm telling you, can you fight?"

The Ratman Chief said, "Of course we can fight."

Orc: "I see you are not strong enough to take a beating."

The Ratman Chief: "Hehe, I will let you know how powerful our Ratman tribe is."

After saying that, he looked up to the sky and roared: "Squeak!"

Soon, rats kept coming out of the woods and holes behind them. In a short while, they were crowded with rats. Although everyone was dressed in rags and holding sharpened sticks, their numbers were scary.

The ratman chief said proudly: "One advantage of our race is that we are very fertile and there are a lot of rats. Hehehehe! Maybe someone can defeat us temporarily, but no one will ever be able to completely eliminate us."

Orc: "..."
