"How's the situation?" When Li Huailin returned to the command room, basically all the generals were already there, and the atmosphere was slightly tense. Seeing the appearance of the new commander, Li Huailin, all the generals immediately saluted and shouted, "Commander!"
"The Demons' vanguard has just passed the Blue Outpost and is now ten miles away from our base camp. The vanguard is led by Brigadier General Morkens and is expected to reach our base camp in 30 minutes. "Veronica pointed to the map in front of her and reported to Li Huailin.
"The Demons' main force has all been dispatched, with a military strength of 60,000. They are now in this position and will arrive in two hours." Veronica pointed to a place a little behind and said.
"A total of 70,000?" Li Huailin nodded, then looked at the legion information displayed in his system.

"F * ck, as expected of the Empire's regular army. Their wealth is simply enviable." Li Huailin looked at the army list and said, "More than 90,000 people, five elite troops, really amazing …"
"Commander, what should we do?" After reporting the situation, all the generals immediately looked at Li Huailin in the middle.
"Do we have that many archers?" Li Huailin asked after some thought.
"Our army's main mission is to protect the territory, not to attack the Demons' territory, so we have more archers," Macken, the adjutant beside him, replied.
"How's the retreat preparation?" Li Huailin asked again.
"It's all ready, but the situation is too urgent, so I only allowed all the soldiers to stay for three days with dry rations. There's still a large amount of rations that can't be taken away, as well as siege equipment and other items." A middle-aged male NPC called Dane walked out from the side and reported to Li Huailin. He was probably the leader of the logistics team.
An NPC called Saimos immediately stepped forward and said, "Forgive me for being blunt, commander. If we retreat now, we will definitely be chased by the Demons and suffer heavy losses."
"What kind of guy is the commander of the Demons?" Li Huailin asked.
"The commander of the Demons is the Demons' famous general, Gevinson Gordon, the former commander's old enemy. He has commanded hundreds of battles, big and small. He has a lot of combat experience and is good at attacking. As for his personality … he's easier to kill … especially against humans, "Saimos said after some thought.
"What about their vanguard, Mokens?" Li Huailin asked again.
"A valiant general …" Saimos replied.
"That's it?" Li Huailin looked at Saimos who didn't continue.
"Yeah, other than fighting a little fiercely, I can't see anything else …" Saimos said.
"So it's a piece of trash …" Li Huailin said. "Okay, I understand. I've made a decision. Now, issue the military order."
"Yes!" Everyone immediately stood up and answered in unison.
"Everyone in the regiment. Bring along all the troops that can fight." Li Huailin paused and then pointed to the small flag that represented the Demons' vanguard on the map. "Attack the Demons' vanguard."
"What?!" Saimos was the first to shout in surprise. "Aren't we retreating?"
"They must have received a secret report from Marquis Filmus. The former commander is dead, and the troops are in a hurry to retreat, so they probably won't expect us to take the initiative to attack. Before the enemy's main force arrives, we must defeat the enemy's vanguard," Li Huailin said. "Go now, don't waste a moment."
"Yes!" Since everyone's loyalty was full, there was no doubt about Li Huailin's words. All the generals nodded immediately.
Not far from the Li Ren's camp in the east, a human sentry tower had just been set ablaze, and all the soldiers inside had been slaughtered. At the entrance of the sentry tower, a huge Demons army was reorganizing, and some soldiers were still setting fire and slaughtering the remaining captives.
"Reporting, General." A Demons soldier walked up to a Tauren general on a warhorse, knelt on one knee, and then reported, "The Blazing Sentry has been taken, and all the human soldiers have been killed."
"Sure enough, no one came to rescue … It seems that Marlindolf is really dead." General Morkens laughed and said, "Everyone, pack up quickly. We have to set off immediately and attack the enemy's camp!"
"General." The deputy general next to Morkens immediately said, "The Commander-in-Chief did not ask us to attack the human camp. He only asked us to open up a path and probe. Our army seems to have gone a little too deep. Why don't we rest a little and wait for the Commander-in-Chief's troops?"
"Damn it, the human Marshal is dead. Is there anyone who can stop me?" Morkens pointed at his weapon, the big club, and said, "See that? Whoever dares to come, I will smash them to death. "
"Yes … General …" The deputy general seemed like he wanted to say something, but he stopped when he saw Morkens in front of him. This guy's temper was really bad. Last time, he even had a bad record of beating the deputy general half to death because of an argument with him. It was better for him to take it easy.
"How far is the human camp?" Morkens asked with a laugh.
"We will see the human camp after we pass this slope," the soldier in front said as he pointed at the small hill in front of them.
"Good, brothers, this is the moment for success and fame. Everyone has it, give it to me …"
"General, something bad has happened!" Just as Mokens was about to order everyone to attack in high spirits, a mounted scout suddenly dashed over from the front and fell right in front of Mokens' horse.
"Damn it! What's going on! "Morkens was very unhappy that his words were interrupted. He pointed at the scout in front of him and asked.
"The human army has taken the initiative to attack. They are charging directly towards our troops," the scout immediately said.
"What?" Morkens was taken aback. Wasn't the commander dead? Why would they suddenly attack? Was there a mistake in the intelligence? "Did you see it clearly?"
"I saw it clearly. It is indeed a large army," the scout immediately said.
"How many troops are there?" Morkens asked.
"They are all over the mountains and plains. It is estimated that there are more than 50,000 of them." The scout could no longer count how many troops the humans had sent out. However, when he looked around, he saw that there were humans everywhere. He immediately rushed back to report.
"What? 50,000? " Morkens' complexion changed drastically. There were less than 100,000 soldiers in the 2nd Human Corp. Excluding the logistics, there were only about 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers. This was simply a full-strength attack. Could it be that they were going to fight the demons directly?
"Impossible. The enemy's commander has just died. How could they fight us? This is utter nonsense." Morkens immediately gave up on his speculation and said, "I will go up the hill and take a look for myself."
"General, you can't! The situation is urgent. Please give the order to retreat immediately and set up a formation. When the commander's main force arrives, we will be able to counterattack immediately, "the deputy general immediately said.
"Scram!" Morkens was in a very bad mood. He cursed at the deputy general beside him. Then, he pulled on the reins and galloped up the hill in front of him.
Then, he saw the most spectacular scene in history. From one end of the horizon to the other, there was a dense mass of troops. All kinds of flags were fluttering in the air, and the reflection of the armor was so blinding that he could not open his eyes. In his field of vision, there were only soldiers and soldiers. He could no longer see the ground.
"Lord Beast God … This …" Morkens was stunned. This was not just 50,000 people. The other party had even called in the reserves.
"General … Oh my god …" The deputy general beside him also caught up with Morkens. When he saw the troops below, he was also stunned. However, he recovered a little faster. "General, retreat quickly. This is not something we can resist!"
"Wait, this is a hill. Our cavalry has the advantage of a high vantage point … Maybe we can tear the human army apart …" Morkens suddenly laughed and said, "This is an opportunity. We have a chance to win!"
"General, the difference in numbers is too great. Moreover, the other party is an elite troop. They will not be defeated so easily. We should still …" The deputy general was halfway through his sentence because he saw a huge black shadow appear behind Morkens.
The deputy general was stunned for a moment. Then, he took a closer look. This black figure was a human general. He was riding on a huge warhorse and was holding a huge steel rod in his hand. He was smashing it towards Mokens.
"General, be careful!" The deputy general shouted immediately. He did not even have time to go up.
