Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 781: No screws are absolutely the same
After completing the equipment update and bidding farewell to Lorena, Yang Yu led the team and left Konalquez.
On the way, Yang Yu once again asked Bai Jin to get in touch with Dongmu, confirm the location of Dongmu, and decide on the next destination.
The war on the border between Wansheng Kingdom and Luoze Empire was very cruel and tragic.
One young orc soldier built a city wall with flesh and blood, and barely managed to contain the Luoze Empire's attack.
Now there are countless young orcs fighting on various fronts, trying to resist human attacks again and again.
Behind each front, there are one or several important passes.
Once it falls, the Luoze Imperial Army will seize the opportunity to penetrate deeper into the Wansheng Kingdom and eat away the entire Wansheng Kingdom from within.
Celebrating the capture of the volcano is the result of the loss of one of the fronts.
Originally, the Luoze Empire wanted to take advantage of this gap to continuously send troops, allowing some soldiers to try to attack deeper into the Wansheng Kingdom, and allowing other soldiers to wade through the hills and mountains with complex terrain to attack multiple fronts on the border. Form front and rear double teams to cause it to collapse.
However, this dream was slapped hard.
Celebrating that the volcano was recaptured, the orcs also learned new tactics from someone unknown.
Since then, the orcs fighting in the forest have rarely faced head-on confrontations with the troops of the Luoze Empire. Instead, they have used their keen sense of smell and hearing to continuously carry out unexpected attacks.
After witnessing this tactic this time, Luo Ze's soldiers suffered a lot.
After figuring out the core of Wansheng Kingdom’s tactics, the top brass of the Luoze Empire quickly adjusted their strategies and tactics.
Unfortunately, these strategies and tactics inevitably failed when facing the orcs in the dense forest.
The senses of orcs are far stronger than that of humans. In addition, orcs wear strange clothes, it is difficult for humans to identify them hiding in the jungle with the naked eye. However, orcs can always discover humans before humans discover them, and React quickly.
Even if surveillance magic is used, it will have little effect.
There was no other way. The Luoze Empire could only find a breakthrough elsewhere. They deliberately avoided the dense forest, or used magic to slowly change the terrain to allow the army to move forward.
The Nomachi defense line that Yang Yu and the others are heading for is located on a mountainous area mostly composed of yellow soil, brown rocks and sparse vegetation.
Being there means a lot of head-on conflict.
With the blessing of the title, Lotkar's footsteps became faster. Yang Yu and the others arrived at Liutie City where they agreed to meet one day earlier than planned.
This is also a city with a prison camp.
Affected by Mindalak's policies, many human prisoners have been accumulated here.
The atmosphere here is completely different from the prison camp Yang Yu saw for the first time.
The Luo Ze Empire's troops have strict military discipline. Even if they are in the enemy camp, they will train in an organized and disciplined manner.
This seems to only exist on the premise that every soldier can be sent back smoothly. Losing this premise will bring about a series of chain reactions.
Seeing that only officers and above were sent back, many ordinary Luo Ze soldiers were anxious, uneasy, and increasingly panicked, and were shaken by what they believed in.
Under the rules of the dragon, the Luoze Empire can assign commissioners to manage them.
Unfortunately, even though the commissioners tried their best to appease the prisoners, they did not slow down the spread of negative emotions.
Among the gradually increasing negative emotions, it is most likely to breed various rumors that can be believed to be true.
Some Luo Ze soldiers even believed that their empire began to fall bit by bit under the attack of the orcs.
Being in constant panic all day long has also become an inducement for their laziness. They often sigh and feel weak in training.
On the contrary, there are some soldiers who consistently believe that their country will win. Perhaps, even if their country's emperor tells them that the empire has lost, they will not believe it.
These people are the antithesis of the pessimists.
Believers try every means to "awaken" those pessimists, even using violence.
The rules of the dragon only protect people of one camp from being harmed by people of another camp, and have no requirements for people of the same camp.
The internal fighting in the prison camp naturally does not fall under the jurisdiction of the dragon.
Walking through the towering fence of the shelter, Yang Yu could tell at a glance who was being bullied and who was complacent.
To be honest, it was difficult for Yang Yu to connect them with the well-trained, united, and fearless imperial soldiers he had encountered on the Cerrovomen Plains before.
This is also one of the drawbacks of the Luoze Empire's soldier training method.
There are differences between people, their knowledge and acceptance of certain things vary, and everyone has their own ideas.
Ignoring a person's thoughts and twisting them into identical "screws" may be counterproductive.
Absolutely identical "screws" do not exist in this world.
Among the soldiers of the Luo Ze Empire, there are also many who are not willing to become "screws".
Although they knew about the existence of the colorful-haired masked man, the Luoze soldiers close to the Nomachi defense line did not react too much to Yang Yu's arrival.
These prisoners are just living the life a prisoner should live.
Walking into Liutie City, Yang Yu easily found Dong Mu who was preparing in the city. The troops led by Dong Mu were reduced by a full third.
"Hey! Long time no see, General Potato, I can see that you are getting stronger again, haha."
Long Mu smiled heartily as always and patted Yang Yu on the back.
Yang Yu also greeted politely, "Long time no see, General Dongmu."
After chatting with each other for a few words, Yang Yu asked about Dongmu and the whereabouts of the troops:
"General Dongmu, the number of troops is a little wrong. Is there any battle?"
Long Mu pinched his chin and nodded:
"Well, that's right.
The army you originally led contained many elites, and you trained them quite well.
While you were away, I allowed them to have full contact with the rest of the team, and they really learned a lot.
Originally, I wanted to return the troops intact to you, but the situation on the front line was far more complicated than I imagined.
I asked people to lead the troops to possible breakthrough points and provide support to other troops to prevent the front from collapsing.
Your troops are more elite and more effective, so I also asked people to take them with them."
As soon as he came back, he learned that the previously formed team had been dismantled and put into different battlefields. Yang Yu seemed very calm and seemed not surprised by the result.
The number of his troops is not large, but it almost covers the vast majority of the elites of Wansheng Kingdom who were captured during the winter offensive.
The elites are too concentrated to take care of the multiple stalemate fronts, and it will be a matter of time before they are split up.
