Chapter 167 Strike a truce, the coalition forces regroup!(2/2)
"..."
Rogers was speechless for a moment.
"Chang'an is a really tough opponent."
Chester couldn't help but sigh, "We are almost never given a chance."
"There are actually opportunities."
Douglas remained calm, "Chang'an slowing down the offensive pace means everything is back to the original point. Our army can still implement guerrilla tactics and delay the enemy's attack."
"As for today's battle, although we have not achieved full success, it is still a rare victory after all."
He must make a final conclusion on this battle.
The coalition won!
This is a very clear fact.
Not only was it the first victory for the Union forces since Douglas became commander-in-chief of the Union forces, it was even the first victory since the establishment of the Union forces.
It's a milestone.
This alone was enough for Douglas to secure his position as commander of the coalition forces.
"Nanshi County has been captured by Chang'an. The coalition forces have just integrated the local defense forces in the valley province, using Luoton County and Nash County as the new rear area to continue fighting against Chang'an's army."
In view of Chang'an's conservatism, Douglas gave up his plan to completely withdraw from the Valley Province.

Lorton County and Nash County are adjacent to Bute Province and the southern border of Ika Province. They can coordinate with the coalition forces of the two provinces to establish new outposts.
in this way.
There is no need to "get it right in one step" and spread the smoke of war to the two major provinces.
Think about it.
The two major provinces will definitely support the coalition decision-making.
"It can only be the."
Regrettably, Rutgers was unable to annihilate the enemy Flying Bear Legion in one fell swoop.
I always feel overwhelmed.
"By the way, has Grant agreed to cooperate with the Alliance?" Rogers asked with concern.
"No."
Mike shook his head, "Grant has clearly refused."
"This guy!"
When he said this, Rogers didn't know whether he was angry or jealous.
Maybe a bit of both.
Although Grant did some bad things, he finally made a name for himself and became a prince. Even if he betrayed the country, the Alliance still had to rely on him.
It's just magical.
Grant's existence may also reveal the basic rules of the lords era——
Strength is king!
In comparison, Rutgers not only had to succumb to Douglas and return to Xihai County, but also had to be driven by Lord Gale, which made him seem a little downcast.
Just like that
