Throne of Vientiane Civilization

After talking to Ye Jinghong, Zhou Xu walked out of the house. It was dark now, and torches were lit in the village camp for their internal lighting.

Unlike usual, because of the fighting that took place during the day, there are still many people in the village busy at this moment.

At this moment, Li Ce came over and gave him a brief report on the casualties this time.

This time they took advantage of the home field and played a defensive battle. His skeleton soldiers were all in front, and the villagers and soldiers were behind. The only time they had actual contact with the hyenas was when they were chasing and killing them.

But no one died, only three soldiers were injured, and the injuries were not serious, which made Zhou Xu heave a sigh of relief.

"Oh, by the way, how is Chongshan?"

Li Ce knew that their leader was asking about Zhou Zhongshan's injury.

"The wrist is swollen like this."

Li Ce gestured while talking.

The simple and clear action made Zhou Xu's eyelids twitch.

【Good guy, this is swollen as big as a steamed bun. 】

When Zhou Zhongshan pierced the hyena man's body with the crescent halberd, his wrist was already sprained because he couldn't support the weight with one hand.

After that, the hyenas suddenly attacked Zhou Xu with a "deceitful corpse", and Zhou Zhongshan quickly grabbed the horn bow and forced it to open.

The previous bows and arrows were fine, but Zhuang Mengdie's new animal horn bow was a serious and strong bow, and it required higher wrist strength.

The wrist of Zhou Zhongshan's preferred hand was already sprained, so he forced the bow, which directly made him more injured. As a result, before the arrow was shot, the hyena man was blocked by their leader.

Rounding it up, this injury is a waste of money.

Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will arrive.

Seeing Zhou Zhongshan who had finished applying the medicine and came over, Zhou Xu glanced at his injured wrist.

"Li Ce told me about your wrist. For the next period of time, you should take a good rest and resume training after your wrist injury heals."

When Zhou Zhongshan heard this, he became anxious.

"Boss, I'm fine! It's a small injury, just sleep and it will be fine!"

Hearing these words, Zhou Xu was speechless for a while.

"Whether it's a minor injury or not, you must be more aware than I am. In your situation, if the injury gets worse, it's hard to say whether your hand will be as flexible as before!"

Zhou Xu who said this had a serious expression on his face.

The sprain was indeed not considered a serious injury, but the problem is that Zhou Zhongshan's injury is now adding to his injury, and at the same time, there is a lack of corresponding medicine and medical conditions in this primitive era. If the injury keeps getting worse, it will be difficult to say .

Zhou Xu didn't want to lose a strong general because of such a trivial matter.

Having said that, Zhou Xu made a decision in his heart.

"Although you hurt your dominant hand, you should be fine riding a horse. Tomorrow morning, I will ask someone to take you back to Heiyue Village to recuperate. I will ask Zhao Geng to take a look at it for you and heal your hand completely. Ye Yan nodded. , you can come back!"

Hearing this, Zhou Zhongshan wanted to argue a few words, but when he raised his head, he met Zhou Xu's eyes.

There was no need to speak, the unquestionable eyes told him clearly that there was no room for negotiation on this matter.

"yes."

"Okay, don't be dejected, and take good care of your injuries. This injury will heal in a short time. Your training is not short of time."

Seeing Zhou Zhongshan's drooping head, Zhou Xu slowed down his tone and gave a little comfort.

"You came here this time, do you have anything to report?"

"have!"

After saying this word, Zhou Zhongshan hesitated unconsciously.

Seeing this, Zhou Xu immediately knew what was going on.

"Is it about the Crescent Halberd?"

At this very moment, Zhou Xu just continued talking on his own.

"At that time, you were riding on a horse, and with the momentum of the horse, you pierced the hyena man's body with the crescent halberd, but later you wanted to pull the crescent halberd out of the hyena man's body, but you were restricted by the crescent blade and couldn't pull it out. "

Having said that, Zhou Xu's eyes fell on Zhou Zhongshan's sprained wrist again.

"Your wrist was injured at that time, right?"

"yes."

Zhou Zhongshan responded in a low voice.

In his opinion, this crescent halberd was a weapon developed by their leader, and it would be disrespectful for him to stand up and find fault.

But if this matter makes him hold back, he will feel uncomfortable...

Looking at Zhou Zhongshan's appearance, Zhou Xu could not know what he was thinking.

He only heard him laughing, and then speaking again...

"The crescent halberd was originally designed for infantry. At that time, we didn't have war horses. According to the design at that time, it was impossible for infantry to have such great power to directly penetrate the enemy's body."

"Therefore, there is no need to consider the problem that the crescent halberd cannot be pulled out after penetrating the enemy's body, because this problem basically does not happen in infantry combat."

"Under this premise, the crescent halberd with the crescent blade can greatly enrich the infantry's combat methods, thereby enhancing their combat effectiveness. It is a very suitable infantry weapon."

Having said that, Zhou Xu paused.

"However, once you add mounts and switch to mounted combat, many combat modes will change, such as the charge and thrust you used at that time."

"And you have experienced the consequences of using the crescent halberd to charge and stab. The crescent halberd is not a weapon prepared for cavalry charges."

Zhou Xu's words made Zhou Zhongshan suddenly realize.

It turned out that it wasn't a problem with the weapon per se, but a problem with the way he used it.

"Chongshan, remember what I told you before? You have talent, you are very good at using various weapons, don't waste this talent."

Knowing Zhou Zhongshan's "Weapon Master" talent Zhou Xu, he had already told him about this matter.

But having said that, it doesn't mean that he will be able to reverse it immediately.

Although after Zhou Xu became the leader, they quickly enriched their weapon choices, but the days when they had no choice in the past also caused Zhou Zhongshan to develop some 'bad habits'.

For example, after he picked up the crescent halberd, he never thought about changing it to something else.

He uses every weapon very neatly, but except for switching with bows and arrows in long-distance situations, he basically doesn't switch between melee weapons.

In other words, he is more inclined to solve the problem directly with the weapon in his hand, rather than changing to a more suitable weapon.

Zhou Xu's words made Zhou Zhongshan fall into deep thought again.

"In the future, I will ask the forging department to forge long spears that are more suitable for cavalry charges. You should think about the question I told you. Is there anything else? Chongshan?"

Seeing Zhou Zhongshan, who was clearly distracted, Zhou Xu couldn't help asking again.

Zhou Zhongshan hurriedly expressed after he suddenly regained consciousness...

"Yes, yes! We went out on a mission before, and we hunted and killed some hungry wolves. I shot and killed the wolf king and brought the body back. Let the leader decide."

"okay, I get it."
