Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1371 A Psychological Battle

"If there is a flaw in the Timber Deity Empire's defensive line, the United Army will definitely attackthat. Once the Timber Deity Empire's defensive line collapses, the defensive lines of the Holy DragonEmpire and the Magic Phoenix Empire will also be seriously affected. I didn't expect him to see mydefense's weakness so easily. He is indeed a good opponent!" Alyssa thoughtfully said. Then sheordered, "Keep a close watch on the enemy's actions. If you notice anything, report it to meimmediately!”

The commander immediately nodded at her order and left.

"Commander in Chief, the forces of the South United Army are far more powerful than ours. If theyattack us, we would be in an extremely disadvantageous position,” a commander in the campworriedly said.

"Don't worry about that. Even though the South United Army is stronger than us, our strategicposition is not easy to be conquered. Besides, I have already secretly gathered more than thirtythousand soldiers and placed them around our position. We just need to wait for the United Armyto take the bait and ambush them,” Alyssa confidently said with great foresight.

She had already seen through Rocky's mind and considered all his possible moves, so she wasconfident that Rocky would not benefit from this battle at all

Of course, Rocky already knew that Alyssa could see through his plan. The two of them knew eachother very well after all. So, it was still unknown whether Rocky could break through Alyssa'sstrategic position to disintegrate the Timber Deity Empire's defensive line, or if Alyssa could easilydefend the strategic position and make Rocky return empty handed!

This battle was no longer a test of military strength, but a psychological battle between both. It alldepended now on who could laugh to the end.

Two days later, the South United Army led by Rocky was still not moving at all. They just campedunder the watch of the enemy as if entering an empty land and settling there.

At first, Alyssa was very patient. She thought that Rocky must be waiting for an opportunity to act,so she couldn't show any weakness.

However, Alyssa became suspicious as time went by. Although she had expected all of Rocky'splans, she didn't expect that he would be this calm. Logically speaking, Rocky must have consideredthe possibility of Alyssa's reinforcements. With that, he should have led the South United Army toengage in a quick battle to occupy the strategic position as soon as possible. However, Rocky didnot make any move which made her a little suspicious.

On the fourth day, there was still no movement from the South United Army. They were still justcamping there like they were on a vacation.

Finally, Alyssa couldn't sit still any longer. She was worried that Rocky might have other plans. Thistime, it was important to her to gamble and fight against Rocky on the battlefield. Besides, she wasstill holding a grudge against Rocky for killing her brother. She knew that she couldn't defeat Rockyalone, so the only way to defeat him was on the battlefield. She was determined to completelyannihilate him this time.

To prevent Rocky from having any other plans that she didn't expect, Alyssa summoned severalcommanders and decisively deployed their following attacks.

"Commander Zhang, you're going to lead five thousand soldiers to sneak into the enemy's campthrough this overland route and launch a surprise attack.”

"Commander Li, you will lead three squads of spirit manipulators to the rear of the enemy's camp.After Commander Zhang launches the surprise attack, your must burn the enemy's provisions.”"And Commander Huang, you will lead three thousand bowmen to burn the enemy's camp afterCommander Li burns their provisions. All of you must retreat safely.”

"The remaining commanders each will be on standby with five thousand men..."

Alyssa had made a detailed attack plan on the topographic map. She didn't want to give Rocky anychance to breathe at all.

At noon, the commanders led their own troops to get ready. After Alyssa gave the order, theyquickly acted.

Meanwhile, the spirit manipulators sent by Rocky to monitor the enemy's camp immediately rushedback and reported to Rocky as they saw the enemy's action.

"Ah, finally. You really can't sit still, can you?" With an evil smile, Rocky immediately looked at Marciaand said, "Call the South United Army, prepare to bring three days’ worth of provisions, andimmediately abandon the camp.”

"What? Abandon the camp?" Marcia was puzzled by Rocky's orders.

"Alyssa will certainly burn our provisions and camp to force us to counterattack. If that happens, shewill take advantage of the terrain to deal with us. So, of course we can't let things go according toher plan.” Rocky had already known what Alyssa was going to do, so he had already come up with asolution.

"But I'm afraid we will be in a passive position without the camp,” Marcia said after a carefullythinking all their possible moves.

"No, we won't be passive. On the contrary, we can take the active position. After we abandon thecamp, you will lead thirty thousand soldiers to launch an ambush. After I lure out most of theenemy's troops, you will lead the army to directly attack and capture their camp,” Rocky explainedto Marcia.

"I hadn't thought about that. What a good move! But it's very likely that Alyssa had already placedsoldiers around their camp. If we occupy their camp, we may fall into a heavy siege.” Marcia was stilla little worried at their plan.

"We can catch a big fish by setting out a long line. If we want to completely conquer this strategicposition, we must let Alyssa show all her trump cards. In that way, we can completely control thesituation,” Rocky said as he narrowed his eyes. He had already foreseen this for a while now.

"It's a little risky, but I have to agree that it will really surprise Alyssa.” Hearing that, Marcia slightlynodded as she understood what Rocky was thinking.

The strength of the South United Army was obviously superior to that of the enemy. Even if theenemy had secret reinforcements, they would not benefit if they fought head-on. That was whyAlyssa planned to burn the South United Army's provisions and camp to force them to attack. In thisway, they could take the active position of defense and slowly consume the strength of the SouthUnited Army.

Rocky's strategy was exactly going around Alyssa's strategy. In this way, Alyssa would think that theSouth United Army was forced to make a counterattack. After that, Alyssa would certainly make amove to resist the South United Army's attack with all her strength. However, even if the SouthUnited Army only had half of their soldiers, Alyssa had to lead her army with all their strength tofight because of their gap in military strength. Otherwise, she would inevitably suffer great losses.So, if Rocky lured Alyssa to lead her army out of the camp at the right time, he would have a chanceto lead his army to capture the enemy's camp. Besides that, all the troops hidden by Alyssa wouldalso be exposed.

With that, Marcia quickly gathered the South United Army and brought with them three days’ worthof provisions. Then she led the South United Army to retreat from the camp and head to the east.Not long after, the five thousand spearheads sent by Alyssa attacked the camp of the South UnitedArmy from a secret overland route. However, what they saw was an empty camp. And waiting forthem was a lonely and arrogant figure in the middle of the camp.
