The situation on the Wildwind Highlands in the following days unfolded much as Yan Xing had anticipated.
Anderson had no intention of depleting his troops against the solid defenses of the Eternal Domain. Furthermore, he realized that Yan Xing seemed more adept than he was at dealing with this entirely new mode of warfare.
Consequently, while it appeared the Wildwind Principality's troops were on the offensive, the entire battle felt very passive for them. Any new tactics they conceived seemed to be met with ready-made counters from the Eternal Domain. And these counters were all very effective.
Thus, Anderson ordered his troops to first fortify their occupied territories. Following the Eternal Domain's defensive construction patterns, they began to dig similar trenches extensively, aiming to counter defense with defense.
While continuously launching small-scale attacks on the frontline, they also used heavy magic to maintain pressure on the Eternal Domain's defenders.
