Cornelia had issued the order for reinforcements. As the first commander of the frontline battle, Xiao Ran was dissatisfied with Cornelia's unauthorized decision. After all, strictly speaking, Cornelia's action was considered overboard and wrong. If she didn't handle it well, not only would she bring all the troops arranged behind her into the abyss, but she might also ruin his plan, affect the rhythm of the Blood Knights, and even harm Xiao Ran.
If this were a real space war, it would be fine if nothing happened. But if something did happen, it would definitely be a huge disaster. And it just so happened that Cornelia and Britaria didn't have the ability to solve this problem. This situation would never happen in the Burning Legion because no one could challenge Xiao Ran's authority. But Cornelia's action was also for the sake of Xiao Ran's safety. She was even willing to sacrifice the entire Freikorps to ensure Xiao Ran's safety. Based on this point, Xiao Ran could understand, so he was only a little dissatisfied. But there was another problem: Cornelia still didn't have a clear understanding of the participants.
And now that Cornelia's order had been issued, Xiao Ran couldn't immediately overrule it from a certain perspective. But he also wouldn't allow the Freikorps who couldn't even hold a candle to the local participants to appear here. So after Cornelia's order flashed, Xiao Ran issued a new order. In terms of authority level, this new order completely overshadowed Cornelia's new order. That was to stop the reinforcements at a certain coordinate and hide.
Hiding or whatnot was useless. Anyway, as long as the reinforcements stopped, they would have achieved Xiao Ran's goal no matter what they did. They wouldn't come to this complicated place.
The enemy forces surrounding the stronghold didn't move, and Xiao Ran's Deity Kaiser also stopped above the stronghold. Both sides seemed to be waiting for something. The only ones who moved were the unimportant side characters, such as the few pilots of the Blood Knights, and the defensive forces of the stronghold who knew that reinforcements were nearby but couldn't receive any help at all.
In Xiao Ran's eyes, the dozens of Freikorps weren't too powerful of an enemy, especially after confirming the level of these Freikorps through his detection ability. Xiao Ran knew that these Freikorps couldn't be considered a threat to him at all. If both sides clashed head-on, Xiao Ran was confident that it wouldn't take long for him to wipe out all the Freikorps that surrounded the stronghold.
But the prerequisite for wiping out all the Freikorps was that they had to be willing to fight him head-on. And as long as the Freikorps had the intention to retreat and delay, it wouldn't be a battle that could be settled in a few minutes. After all, dozens of Freikorps were different from five Freikorps. If the number of Freikorps was small, Xiao Ran could seize their weakness and destroy them one by one. With the advantage of the Freikorps and technology, he would have an obvious advantage, just like when he dealt with the five Freikorps.
But there were dozens of Freikorps that surrounded him. Even Xiao Ran had to take them seriously. Who knew what kind of attack these Freikorps would make in the end? If dozens of Freikorps were determined to delay him, it would be normal for them to delay him for a while. It was completely different from dealing with a few Freikorps and wiping them out in an instant. It would take a lot of effort to deal with them.
Although he had the advantage of technology and Freikorps, the current battlefield wasn't a very good place. It couldn't be compared to the environment in the universe at all. In addition, the Freikorps weren't really suitable for Xiao Ran. Generally speaking, it was a place where Xiao Ran's strength was limited. Letting a person who was used to using firepower Freikorps to pilot a Freikorps and face so many enemies at the same time was still a little inappropriate.
Therefore, even if Xiao Ran didn't really care about these enemies that appeared in front of him, he couldn't completely ignore them either. Although his expression didn't change much, he still used a serious posture to face them. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to stop right above the stronghold. Wasn't this so that he could react to the enemy's attack as soon as possible?
Moreover, with so many Freikorps, it was more or less a little troublesome. The environment would limit the maximum speed of Xiao Ran's Freikorps, and the type of Freikorps would also prevent Xiao Ran from using his best attack method. It was very likely that there would be situations where he couldn't take care of and counterattack at the first moment. The five pilots of the Scarlet Knights were likely to be in danger under such circumstances, but Xiao Ran wouldn't be able to help at the first moment. These were all troublesome aspects.
In addition, if Xiao Ran took the initiative to attack the enemy, Xiao Ran really didn't have absolute confidence and certainty that he could drive the current Demon God Caesar to destroy the enemy. Of course, Xiao Ran could fight, but the enemy could also escape. With dozens of Freikorps escaping in dozens of directions, it would probably take a lot of time to chase after them one by one. It was not something that the current Demon God Caesar could take care of. Therefore, Xiao Ran still hoped that the enemies surrounding them would take the initiative to attack. He also wanted to ensure the safety of the five Scarlet Knights pilots, so he chose to stop right above the stronghold and not do too much.
In fact, the enemy now had the absolute advantage in numbers, but they ignored the destruction of their own stronghold and the sacrifice of their own forces. They just kept a safe distance and didn't do anything at all. It was impossible to say that there was no reason for this, but they didn't know what exactly they were waiting for.
The current situation was not good. Xiao Ran's side was not suitable to attack or retreat. If he retreated, the first goal of the battle would have been achieved, which was to destroy one of the enemy's strongholds. However, with the enemy's attitude, Xiao Ran, who had destroyed one of the enemy's strongholds, the 19th District would not be able to continue moving forward. Even if the follow-up troops followed up, they would only be a burden and the enemy's war effort.
As for attacking, it was easy for Xiao Ran. He could kill the enemy alone. Of course, it would take some time. However, the enemy could also send more powerful forces to try to stall Xiao Ran when Xiao Ran chose to attack. It should be known that in the entire front line of Britaria, Xiao Ran was the only powerful force, and there were also the five participants sent by Corgi, who played a little bit of a role. The enemy could completely distract Xiao Ran and the five Scarlet Knights while they were stalling Xiao Ran and the five Scarlet Knights. At that time, the 19th District would suffer a huge loss, and it was very likely that the Scarlet Knights would be exposed behind these participants.
It was a classic example of 'I can't do anything to you, but I can totally choose to ignore you or hold you back. Since you don't have as many high-end combat forces as I do, then I'll just wipe out all of your reinforcements first.' This was a helpless but practical situation. But Demon God Kaiser just so happened to be a combat type mech. A mech without powerful AOE firepower would definitely be able to break through a single point of attack, but it was the same for the current situation as well. It was indeed not very suitable for the current situation.
It was not suitable for the current situation. Xiao Ran had no doubt that they would win if they fought. However, there would be too many unexpected situations before they won. Some would run away, some would come back with powerful reinforcements, or both. Xiao Ran would naturally not be affected by this. However, the regular army behind him and the Scarlet Knights below would be in danger.
If Demon God Caesar was replaced by Xiao Ran's A-grade mech, the current situation would not be so troublesome. The current situation was like a game. They had six mechs, and the enemy had dozens. Moreover, each mech could only move once in a round. Except for Demon God Caesar, who had the ability to insta-kill people at max level, the other five mechs were only at the same level as the enemy and did not have the ability to insta-kill people. No matter how Demon God Caesar could insta-kill, he could only insta-kill one enemy mech in a round. It would take a lot of rounds for him to completely wipe out the enemy. By that time, the other five mechs would have been wiped out.
However, if the Devil Kaiser was replaced with the mech that Xiao Ran had piloted in the past, heh, then the result would be simple. Similarly, it would only take one action per round, but in that round, Xiao Ran could use his own mech to launch a full-screen + undodgeable + instant kill + shield attack on his teammates. In one round, he would be able to clear the entire field and become the MVP. This was the difference.
Pondering over the current situation, while Xiao Ran was paying attention to the enemy's movements, he was also paying attention to the five members of the Scarlet Knights below him. After the resistance in the stronghold completely stopped for a short period of time, Xiao Ran opened the communication channel with the five mechs.
"That's it. The five of you should immediately evacuate from this place. The next battle is not something you can participate in. You only need to use all means possible to escape from this place. I will do my best to help you intercept all the pursuers."
Xiao Ran told the five of them to escape quickly because he didn't need them to drag him down. Since the other party had chosen to wait and not attack, he was prepared to take the initiative to test the other party. No matter what the other party's plan was, he had to at least weaken the other party's strength as much as possible before the other party's plan began.
The current situation was indeed a little inconsistent with the plan. Originally, Xiao Ran wanted to force the enemy to initiate a decisive battle. However, he did not expect the enemy to be so decisive. They had just started their operation and had already mobilized such a large number of troops. It was as if they were ready for a decisive battle. The key point was that the Scarlet Knights were still attacking the EU side and had no time to coordinate with the enemy. From this point of view, they had indeed disrupted Xiao Ran's plan a little.
(There's still more to come ~ ~ ~ I'm running out of time. I fell asleep just now. Hahaha ~ ~ ~ I'll use the repetitive part to hold on for 20 minutes.)

From this point of view, it seemed that they had disrupted Xiao Ran's plan.
