For quite a long time thereafter, Hope Village adhered to the principle "When the enemy advances, we retreat."
Whenever the Pigmen gained even a slight advantage in combat, they would flee back to their territory.
After all, Pigmen were fierce and unafraid of death, and such reckless fighting would cost them many lives to overcome a direct confrontation.
But their lives were singular; how could they afford to die here!
As long as the green hills remain, there will be no worry about firewood.
The sneaky tactics of Hope Village indeed continually disrupted the Pigmen's offensive rhythm. Moreover, with the assistance of the Bowman Team on the walls and the Crossbow Carriages, even though the Pigmen's attacks were fiercer and seemingly advantageous, their losses ended up being greater than those of Hope Village.
The number of Pigmen steadily decreased.
Gradually, their original count of five hundred fell to just over four hundred.
