General Gorky: "I've heard your opinion, and I will consider it, I promise. But for now, I have to try to hold the line and see if we can deplete some of the Prosen's living force, to alleviate the pressure on the Coastal Fortress.
"However, the situation at the Coastal Fortress might... no, any reduction in pressure is good."
Wang Zhong nodded: "Yes."
He understood what Gorky meant, the retreat from the Coastal Fortress had already begun, but the only route was under the enemy's naval gunfire coverage, so they had no choice but to retreat under cover of darkness. Duke Meishikin was also striving to launch an attack, trying to break open a land corridor from Bolsk to the Coastal Fortress.
But just like the problem Gorky was facing, the Ante Army's troop quality was too poor now, especially the level of lower-tier commanders, which led to a horribly disorganized offense.
