I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse Chapter 718 The Jumper's Brilliant Idea

Chapter 718 The Jumper's Brilliant Idea

Fang was mad at me as well. He said I lured him here and dropped all the promises I gave to him before.

I didn’t defend myself much, and just worked there for ten hours and gave him lots of forces to lead.

Like this he settled down and didn’t bring the topic up again.

He wanted to ask for a leave, but he had nothing else to do back home anyway. Besides, getting to rule over Hectors was a chance he wouldn’t get this easily.

Besides he asked to get his army back with him when the war would be done. He even asked for his trusted subordinates to lead armies like these.

Of course I was in desperate need for more generals, but depending on his forces didn’t seem quite right.

So I just agreed to let him take back his army with him after the end of this war, and didn’t give a firm answer about the second request.

I simply said I’d think about it. If time came and I needed more generals, I’d seek for him..

I didn’t directly refuse. Who knows what the future might possibly bring.

As I got done from the first round, the armies all got their supporting forces. The new blood would sustain them for a couple of days.

So I started another round which didn’t take half the time I took at the first. I just kept jumping from one battlefront to another, adding a few troops to help before returning to the place of Sara and spearhead.

Both kept working on many battlefields. The Hectors didn’t even give up with my interference. They kept sending out armies upon armies without pause.

I knew from Lily that this was their land, their home. So it felt like I was invading their world, not the opposite.

The armies they sent were mostly mediocre, with little experience in fighting. This was the only reason behind the consequent victories of my forces till now.

I got this feeling when they committed silly decisions, especially when fighting fierce tactic generals like the jumper and Hilary. Both were cunning, had vast experience in the apocalypse already, and fought many battles before.

In one instance, Hilary troops feigned retreat, creating a gap in her centre. The enemy didn’t doubt this and started pushing at the weak point.

This allowed her forces to circle and entrap the enemies, ending up with such a smooth and sweet victory.

If they got experience, even for a little bit, they would have suspected the presence of a trap here.

That made me realise something. What the Hectors were aiming to do here was to exhaust my forces even further.

Their tactic of sending out forces like that, armies upon armies, not worrying even for a second about their losses, seemed a bit logical if one thought of this as a war to defend their homes.

But when I got the feeling that they were sending fodder, it hit me! They were trying their best to make my forces wary and tired. Then they’d come with the real army, using the real experts to crush my forces in one full swoop.

A word once said by Lily rang in my mind at this point. She once said that her race loved to fight fast and decisive battles.

.

When putting all the dots and linking them together, I got this hunch that this was just a setting for what was yet to come.

“Hmm.. It’s really hard dealing with such a mighty race,” I felt how short I could do in front of such a mighty race.

Even in the case of such a hard fight, while I was invading their lands, they made sure to stay patient and even pull such a tactic on me.

And as I read through it, I had to change my tactic.

[Listen, find a group of towns and cities. Control them, and make sure to form a strong defensive line between the other armies as well]

[Aren’t we going to keep pressing forward?]

[They are many but they aren’t that strong. Even with the stat punishment and debuffs, they fare nothing to our forces!]

[What news did you get?]

All argued with me on such a weird and sudden decision, all but the jumper. That dude knew me quite well, or it was just his personality.historical

I didn’t know, but each time I gave a decision out of an intel or a guess, he already saw through it and questioned me back.

[Just do as I say. Give your forces time to rest and recuperate. Keep defending while amass a large number of these weak forces around your places]

Even if I intended to just sit back and do nothing but defend, bidding time for my forces to rest, I planned to keep increasing the size of my forces with fresh blood.

The only thing that would stop these Hectors from coming at my armies would be the large disparity in numbers.

Or they might not get fazed with this. I frankly didn’t know. But it felt nice to face them with much more forces than what we currently had.

If they did just as Lily said, then they were preparing an army that I had no power to resist.

[Won’t you tell me what happened?] The jumper kept bothering me with such messages while I finally decided to tell him.

He was really annoying when it came to asking for answers. As I told him, he said it was really bad to let them have it their way.

[Why not form an elite force, go deep inside their territory and create chaos?]

[This is a nice idea, but as you can see we have everything but elites!]

[I’m not speaking about our armies]

[What do you mean then?]

[I mean you, me, and that arrogant kid with a scar over his face!]

[Only the three of us?!!] This time, his idea was so damn crazy that it even shocked me.
