Throne of Vientiane Civilization

When it comes to charging on the battlefield, 'Blood Boiling' is a very powerful ability.

However, in the case of a confrontation between strong men on both sides, the 'boiling blood' that will cause the user to lose his rationality and be severely emotionally affected is not really a good method.

If Zhou Chongshan hadn't been too exhausted by the long battle before, Gruul would have died at least two or three times during the fight just now.

After exhaling a long breath, Zhou Chongshan silently adjusted his condition.

Ever since he broke through the bottleneck that had been limiting him in the previous crazy fight, Zhou Chongshan could clearly feel that his strength was constantly improving through battle after battle.

This feeling was very good to him and gave him an unparalleled sense of peace of mind.

At the same time, at Da Zhou's garrison camp, looking at the gradually brightening sky, Zhou Xu took a deep breath and then turned to look at Da Gu and Er Gu placed in the camp.

This was his backup method. If he could not successfully control the armored dragon to facilitate the plan, he would instead control the big bones and the two bones to carry out the action.

But the whole thing went more smoothly than he expected, which made Big Bone and Second Bone temporarily useless.

"Put away the big bones and the two bones. I'll rest for a while and let Li Ce do the follow-up work."

After saying that, Zhou Xu dragged his tired body towards his tent.

He was in no hurry to launch a follow-up offensive.

Sharpening the sword is as good as chopping wood. The soldiers have just fought hard all night, and even now the operation to clear out the remaining lizardmen on the opposite side has not yet ended.

In this state, launching a follow-up offensive in a hurry does not look like a wise decision.

In addition, the lizardmen gave up the environmental advantages of the rainforest defense line and took the initiative to attack, and came to the plain battlefield, which was relatively unfavorable to them. From this move, it is not difficult to see that the ratmen in the south took action.

Under such circumstances, the lizardmen would already be under considerable pressure if they did not immediately transfer their troops back to the southern battlefield to fight the ratmen.

Zhou Xu didn't believe that the opponent dared to continue to send troops to his side in a short period of time.

If nothing else, they should be able to get a relatively stable rest time this time.

Zhou Xu had not slept a wink all night, and coupled with the massive consumption of the power of the mantra, he was already exhausted, both physically and mentally.

After returning to his tent, he basically fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already dark outside. Chitose had come back at some point and was lying next to him. Seeing him wake up, Chitose lazily rubbed his face against him.

After touching Chitose's fur as smooth as satin, Zhou Xu lowered his gaze to the entrance of the camp.

"Someone is coming."

Hearing the sound, the soldiers guarding the door quickly came in to take orders.

"My subordinates are here, what are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"What time is it now?"

Faced with the problem, the soldier said after thinking about it for a while...

"According to the time reported by the night patrol, it is already after ten o'clock."

In order not to disturb the rest of the soldiers, the time interval was changed to once an hour after nightfall.

"In other words, I have been sleeping since early morning?"

"Yes."

"call--"

He exhaled a long and heavy breath. His mind was still heavy now, and his mental fatigue was very obvious.

But this time, he estimated that he had slept for fifteen or six hours. If you asked him to continue sleeping, he would obviously not be able to fall asleep in a short period of time.

"Is Li Ce still awake?"

"Lieutenant Li Ce must have fallen asleep. He came here once an hour ago, but the king was still asleep, so he didn't disturb him and just left a report."

While talking, the soldier quickly presented the report sent by Li Ce to Zhou Xu.

"Do you want to summon Lieutenant Li Ce?"

"No, let him rest."

While talking, Zhou Xu took the report, then sat at the table and lit the oil lamp on the table.

"Go and get me some food."

"Yes, I will make arrangements now."

After saying that, the soldier withdrew, and Zhou Xu used the illumination of the oil lamp to unfold the report sent by Li Ce.

This is a very clearly written casualty report.

"Nineteen people were killed and forty-seven were injured, including eleven seriously injured..."

After controlling the rhythm of the battle throughout and using skeleton soldiers at the front, this casualty figure was still shocking to Zhou Xu.

At that time, the infantry were basically concentrated behind the horses, armed with spears, and there were very few casualties. These were the casualties of their Zhou cavalry troops. The centaurs headed by Diack were not included in the statistics. of.

This time, Zhou Xu discussed matters, and they fought well.

And during the battle, he also successfully summoned skeleton soldiers to attract the opponent's firepower, and then used a group charge of cavalry troops to determine the victory, leaving little opportunity for the lizard men to counterattack.

But even so, they still couldn't avoid a situation of 'more than half of the casualties'.

Most of them were probably caused in the subsequent fighting. At that time, many lizardmen chose to activate the 'blood boiling' to fight, which caused a lot of damage to them.

Since the beginning of the war, the number of casualties among their soldiers has been increasing.

War is bound to kill people. This is a matter of course, but it does not change Zhou Xu's heavy mood at the moment.

Looking at the bloody figures, Zhou Xu fell into a brief silence.

After a few seconds, he took a deep breath and gathered himself together again.

As the supreme ruler of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he has no time to dwell on the sorrow of the past. What he needs to do now is to move forward and not let the sacrifice of the soldiers become a meaningless thing!

[After this battle, the strength of our Zhou cavalry will probably be greatly reduced. 】

Due to the rainforest area and subsequent recruitment, Zhou Xu has focused his training on cultivating mountain soldiers. As a result, the cavalry unit has not received fresh blood for a long time.

The Hundred Cavalry Team, which was so powerful at the beginning, may not even have half left now.

But relatively speaking, the lizard people's situation is definitely worse than them.

Of course, the specific figures have not yet been released. After all, the limited time is not enough for them to complete the cleaning of the battlefield and count the number of enemy corpses.

But Zhou Xu blindly estimated that this wave of enemy speed dragon cavalry would have to be destroyed by three to four hundred.

Considering the pressure on the southern battlefield, the lizardmen probably couldn't bear it anymore and sent their cavalry back.

In this way, the pressure that their cavalry troops have to bear on the plain battlefield will naturally be reduced.
