The insidious scheme of this Green Dragon is truly deadly.

It's primarily because it chose this very opportune moment, just after a hard-fought battle, where the camp is filled with wounded soldiers, and the medical chief has already perished in action. The newly appointed medical chief has exhausted the strategic reserves to barely stabilize the medical situation, preventing the injuries from spreading.

The surviving soldiers are celebrating having escaped death and are tallying the spoils of war and military merits.

At this moment, the Centaur Legion attacking would mean that even if Commander-in-Chief Oerstein is somewhat prepared, the severely depleted army might not be able to hold this battered camp.

So Su Li said, "It's not that I don't trust Commander-in-Chief Oerstein's capability. It's just that our current situation is really dire."

"Facing the massive raid by the Centaur Legion, relying on the defense of this battered camp, we might not escape heavy losses."

Hilude calmly said, "I actually see this as an opportunity. The key is for us to vigorously mobilize the soldiers and exert our organizational capabilities to the fullest."

"In this battle, we have acquired many witchcraft artifacts. As long as we can mobilize the soldiers, work diligently to build trenches, and set up various traps with only two gaps, the Monster Legion will inevitably enter our prearranged ambush."

"At this time, we ambush our elite cavalry regiment outside the camp, and when the enemy falls into the trap and is weakened, we'll launch a rear assault, they will undoubtedly suffer heavy losses."

Set traps in advance?

Su Li was thoughtful; indeed, he was stuck in a fixed mindset.

In this world, barriers that can impede the enemy's advance are not limited to stone walls.

There are also powerful magic traps, which, in many cases, are a more advanced form of defense than city walls.

However, most Lords lack enough wealth to construct layers of defense works with magic traps to replace city walls.

If magic traps could establish a dense network of defenses, to most armies, they would prefer to assault the high city walls over advancing through this area.

However, most magic traps do not directly inflict damage but instead weaken the enemy, requiring the cooperation of the military.

The Green Dragon launched another insidious and decisive night raid, assuming that under normal circumstances, even if this area was set with magic traps, it would not be heavily defended.

But with Su Li's intelligence system, their plans were already known. Perhaps, as Hilude said, this was indeed an opportunity!

Recalling what the Daily Intelligence said, if this Centaur Legion could be completely annihilated, it would instill fear in the Green Dragon's heart, causing it to be extremely apprehensive and potentially delay initiating this war.

Su Li's heart was pounding, if they could delay the outbreak of war by another three months, then the Hesse Territory would have more time for mobilization and preparation, increasing the victory odds by two to three percent!

However, before Hilude mentioned this, Su Li couldn't even dream of such a feat.

In cold weapon combat, he absolutely couldn't wipe out an entire cavalry regiment in one formation.

Even the Repulse Moon Array only killed a large number of cavalry, not annihilating the entire cavalry unit.

But this is an extraordinary world, and if... there were a large number of witchcraft artifacts and magic traps?

He might not be able to slaughter the whole cavalry regiment, leaving no centaur to escape. But causing over 70% losses is highly likely. This would also delay the Green Dragon's attack cycle, as it would fully mobilize the troops and then launch out of the jungle.

Every day the war is delayed, Su Li's strength grows.

Especially with his decisive move tonight, he successfully attracted the attention of the Goddess of Healing and Compassion, Shalya, as a powerful Medical Knight is bringing dozens of Medical Church nuns to the territory to aid the Fiery Sun Goddess's followers in war.

In future territorial wars, casualties will be significantly reduced.

Su Li is desperate to decisively win this battle, so he couldn't sit still any longer, and directly donned his clothes and armor, taking Hilude to the gap in the city wall.

Rong'en Priest and the Corona Knight Order's Deputy Leader Freya were there supervising the soldiers, organizing the construction of new defensive works.

A large number of soldiers and ogres were taking off their armor, working with great enthusiasm.

In the surrounding open ground lay a substantial quantity of construction materials and captured witchcraft artifacts, smoke bombs, and other items.

Hilude made a very valid point, the outcome of the war is always determined by the level of organization.

Strong organizational capability enables the army to unleash unparalleled combat power.

Whereas, with low organizational capability and morale, even if all the soldiers were clad in Vibranium Rune Armor and there were hundreds of Heavy Armored Knights, they would only collapse at the first sign of adverse winds. Aiming and shooting three arrows in battle is already good enough for the Lord.

In terms of organization, the Hesse Territory undoubtedly holds a significant advantage.

With soaring morale, Su Li has given the knights all the honor, wealth, and status they desire. Nearly 900 knights are extremely proud, clearly knowing why they fight in this battle and firmly believing that by following Su Li's shadow, they will achieve everything they want.

Even if they fall in battle, the Fiery Sun Goddess will ensure their souls find a proper resting place. The Lord will ensure their posthumous honor and that their children are cared for.

All fallen knights have been properly collected, and their remains will be interred at the territory's Heroic Spirit Park, where Mole's Elite Knights will pray for them to ensure their bodies are not desecrated by Necromancy.
