Throne of Vientiane Civilization

"There is such a restriction?"

In order to ensure Bam's safety, Dragon God Ceylon set up a barrier in the temple. Zhou Xu knew about this, but he originally thought that the barrier was just a shield. He didn't expect that there was such a restriction inside.

At the same time, he quickly realized how valuable this restriction was.

According to the previous assumption, if there are multiple mages at the level of Saint Realm in Da Zhou, how can you ensure that they will not secretly absorb the natural energy in the area for cultivation?

Not to mention when the two armies are fighting, what if there are also mages at the level of Saint Realm on the other side?

If the other side sucks the natural energy in your area dry, it will be even more fucked up.

But as long as there is this restriction, this problem can be avoided to a large extent.

And under this premise, the existence of natural energy can directly become their backup energy in the area.

If a battle breaks out in the area, you will consume a lot of energy fighting the enemy on the first day. Counting the rest time, it may take two to three days for you to absorb the natural energy in the area and be revived with full blood. What a great help!

At this moment, Zhou Xu wished he could immediately grow wings and fly to Ceylon City to study the restriction carefully.

But he was just thinking about it casually now.

In the Northeast region, the situation is unclear at the moment. He doesn't think that the green-skinned general with the strength of the King Kong Realm will give up after they cut off one of his arms.

In addition, affected by the severe winter climate, the lizardmen troops led by Bo Levin can't stay here at all.

As the most important combat force in the Northeast region at this stage, where can Zhou Xu go now?

Now it depends on when the opponent will take action.

As for taking the initiative to attack...

Zhou Xu has no such plan for the time being.

Considering the current situation of himself and the border defense forces, it is safer to play a defensive counterattack.

It can not only allow the border soldiers to conduct more training and improve their strength, but also allow him and John, who has just broken through, to have more time to practice.

On a new day, this piece of land in the Northeast region was blown by wind and snow again.

The snowfall was not heavy, but the biting cold wind outside was so cold that it hurt people's cheeks and made people not want to stay outside any longer.

At this moment, a loud cry came from the cold wind that was like the cry of ghosts.

Hearing this sound, the patrol teams on the border line, who were leading their wolves and performing tasks in the snow and wind, instantly tensed up!

"There is a situation!"

"Quick! Blow the whistle! Sound the alarm!!"

In such a snowy day, ordinary birds cannot fly normally. Now the only one who can do this in the area is Xuan Yu, who is an extraordinary creature!

The border defense forces who knew this information naturally knew what Xuan Yu's cry meant.

Behind the defense line, a large number of soldiers led by Li Ce quickly gathered and directly entered the highest level of alert.

During this period, Xuan Yu continued to fly back while chirping.

It didn't take long for him to fly to the oil village.

"Something happened! Hurry, rush to the border!"

Led by Zhou Xu, the personal guards stationed in the oil village put on their armor and marched out at the fastest speed, galloping all the way to the border.

At the same time, the oil village had already set up its battle formation.

This winter, they did do something.

At the front of the defense line over there, there were rows of chevaux de frise. These chevaux de frise were specially made, made of thicker tree trunks, larger in size and heavier in weight than ordinary chevaux de frise.

It was mainly to deal with the main force of the greenskins on the opposite side.

Behind the chevaux de frise, the soldiers in the front row held large shields, and further back, stood the crossbowmen of the Great Zhou holding individual crossbows!

This batch of individual crossbows was urgently transferred after the war, a total of 300, which was already the limit.

After all, before this, the individual crossbows produced were all supplied to the plain fortresses first.

Now the northeastern border can gather a crossbow unit of 300 people, which is good enough.

Later, they built a simple sentry tower with wood at every distance, in a fan-shaped reverse-wrapped distribution method, aiming at the area outside the border line.

And on the sentry tower, there are city defense crossbows!

Logically speaking, considering that the greenskin troops may have a giant unit of ogres, they should arrange more powerful three-bow crossbows.

However, after combining the actual situation and studying the tactical arrangements, Li Ce directly chose to abandon the three-bow crossbow and use the less powerful but more flexible city defense crossbow that can reach high places.

After all, there are no city walls or gates on the border line for them to use some city defense tactics. They only have simple chevaux de frise to resist.

Under this premise, the three-bow crossbow has a limited attack angle and is not flexible to adjust. In addition, if you want to attack, you have to move the chevaux de frise first, which will undoubtedly directly affect their entire layout.

So after weighing the pros and cons, Li Ce will make such a choice.

Judging from his qualifications, Li Ce is undoubtedly one of the veterans with the most battlefield experience in their Great Zhou.

But this is his first time facing a greenskin, so he is a little nervous.

But he is a veteran after all. He handled his emotions very well and did not show them at all. In the eyes of the surrounding soldiers, Li Ce was just confirming the deployment of each area with a calm face. Little did they know that this was already the case. It was a sign of his nervousness.

In the wind and snow, bursts of muffled sounds soon came, and Li Ce looked stern when he heard the noise.

【Eye of Insight! 】

As soon as the mantra started, a large number of figures advancing in the wind and snow in the distance suddenly broke into Li Ce's field of vision.

The greenskin troops obviously had no intention of waiting for the snowstorm to stop before launching an offensive.

In their opinion, compared with fragile humans, they are more adapted to this severe cold wind and snow weather, and are less affected than humans, which will give them an advantage.

Taking a deep breath, Li Ce kept his mind calm and issued the order as quickly as possible.

"Notify all sentry towers and prepare city defense crossbows!"

"The enemy troops are advancing here, and it is not yet certain whether there are ogres."

"Wait until the opponent enters the shooting range. Once the trace of the ogre is found, give priority to the concentrated fire attack on the ogre!"

One order after another, orders were issued quickly from Li Ce.

Behind the enemy's horses, the surrounding defense forces are ready to attack!

Just waiting for the green-skinned troops on the opposite side to enter their shooting range, the trigger was pulled, and the scream caused by the special crossbow arrows piercing the air completely kicked off the battle! !
