Throne of Vientiane Civilization

The clarification of his thoughts made Zhou Xu feel suddenly enlightened.

After a round of inspection during this period, Zhou Xu had a rough idea of ​​his own losses in weapons and equipment.

Basically, all the enchanted weapons except the silver steel sword had exhausted their power. Among them, the enchanted giant crossbow arrows brought him some surprises.

In the past, after the ordinary giant crossbow arrows attacked, the arrowhead part would be squeezed and deformed because it could not withstand the impact of the force, but these enchanted giant crossbow arrows were different.

The entire arrowhead remained intact after being pulled out of the armored dragon's body, but the power of the mantra blessing it had been exhausted in that attack.

Compared with those that directly need to be remade, this is just a small problem.

These giant crossbow arrows only need to be re-enchanted by Wang Dong before they can be used as enchanted crossbow arrows again.

After thinking about it like this, Zhou Xu suddenly realized that he seemed to have discovered something incredible.

"If that's the case, then if I make all the giant crossbows into enchanted crossbows, and re-enchant them after use, wouldn't they become weapons that will never wear out?"

If this is true, although in the short term it will greatly increase the workload of relevant departments, once the time is extended, it can save a lot of productivity.

But then Zhou Xu thought about it again and felt that he had oversimplified things.

Not to mention whether through this method, the giant crossbow arrow can really reach the point of never wearing out, let's just say that this enchantment works well.

At this stage, unless the 'mithril' mentioned by Hilke is found, the enchantment effect on the weapon cannot be preserved for a long time. Wang Dong has to rush to perform the enchantment every time, which is an unstable operation in itself. If there is a slight mistake, things can easily go wrong.

Regarding the ‘giant crossbow that never wears out’, this matter needs to be further studied.

But even if one ignores the fact that it never wears out, the advantages of enchanted crossbows have already been demonstrated.

Zhou Xu thought that there was still value in making a few more batches.

[The next time the energy channel is opened, it should be in the next few days. At that time, a messenger will be sent back to arrange this matter. There is also the issue of the strength of the cavalry unit. Although according to my thinking, the battlefield should be fully transferred next. In the rainforest area, the lizardmen probably won't dare to fight out easily anymore, but just in case, it's better to train another batch of cavalry. 】

His thoughts wandered a little further. After thinking about the follow-up arrangements, Zhou Xu quickly brought his attention back to the confirmation of the post-war work in front of him.

In the next few days, they did not make any big moves. After the war, the workload was huge and they were busy.

During this period, they had also successively cleared away the corpses on the battlefield.

Considering that there were many severed limbs and some were almost turned into flesh and mixed into a ball beyond recognition, it was difficult for them to calculate an accurate number.

We can only roughly draw a conclusion that they killed more than 600 enemies, including the lizardman infantry units that advanced with the armored dragon phalanx.

Among them, Zhou Xu's control of the armored dragon's tail sweep and lazy donkey rolling was the most important.

It is no exaggeration to say that in that battle, most of the lizardman infantry died due to Zhou Xu's operation, and a lizardman commander was also crushed to death.

Of course, Zhou Xu himself did not know about the existence of this lizard man leader, and it was difficult to distinguish it from the meat.

After that set of operations, the lizardman infantry who survived were frightened and fled in all directions.

With their limited military strength and relatively simple defense facilities, they were able to achieve such amazing results. There is no doubt that the most important and key figure in this is Zhou Xu himself.

In this entire battle, Zhou Xu controlled the rhythm and used various means to connect all the important links.

Without Zhou Xu, it might not be that easy to completely contain the armored dragon's advance with just the crossbow troops and pit traps.

Not to mention that there are lizardmen infantry accompanying the shield dragon phalanx throughout the entire process. There is a high probability that their camp will be completely wiped out by the opponent.

The entire subsequent situation will no longer be able to follow the rhythm controlled by Zhou Xu before.

But now that the results are in front of us, there is no need to dwell on things that didn't happen.

Maintaining a state of rest, the day when the energy channel was opened soon came, and another group of mountain soldiers who had just completed training arrived in this world with supplies and equipment.

At the same time, on the side of the lizardmen who suffered a huge defeat, Soros has been in a very bad mood recently.

After the army is defeated, whether passively or actively, soldiers will often instinctively adopt the method of "dispersing".

This can be regarded as one of the rogue tactics on the battlefield. Once it is used, the dominant side will most likely not be able to drive them all away.

Many soldiers fled back to the frontline camp that day.

Considering the situation at the time, it would be a good thing for Soros to be able to escape some of the soldiers.

But he soon discovered that two lizardman leaders, including Gruul, had not returned.

His whereabouts are unknown is a euphemistic way of saying it. To put it bluntly, he is most likely dead.

Not to mention the other lizardman leader, Gruul is a special individual among their tribe, and he also performed well in the battle with the ratmen on the southern battlefield. The high priest has high hopes for him.

If Gruul dies, it will undoubtedly be more difficult for Soros to deal with the high priest.

Although he temporarily avoided meeting the high priest on the pretext of dealing with post-war work, he would have to face things that he should face sooner or later.

"Thoros, see the High Priest!"

The high priest did not speak, but raised his hand to signal him to start reporting.

Soros had no intention of lying or adding fuel to the fire.

Even if we are talking about the situation, the main reasons for the situation at that time were the two main reasons: Gruul's misjudgment and wrong move on the front line and the opponent's extraordinary means.

At the end of his speech, Soros was silent for two seconds, and then reported the situation of Gruul's missing.

"okay, I get it."

After listening to Soros's report, the high priest's entire state was surprisingly calm.

"Next, you should guard the rainforest defense line and mainly resist the enemy's invasion. Please retreat."

Upon hearing this, Soros quickly resigned as if he had been granted amnesty.

Looking at Thoros's leaving figure, the high priest took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

In the army, the high priest undoubtedly had an eye. He knew the situation on the front line well before Soros came to report. At least the other party did not lie to him, which made him feel slightly better.

Suffering such a defeat, the lizardmen's troops on their side suffered heavy losses, but the high priest did not get angry because he knew that they were now being attacked on both sides and the situation was not optimistic.

And Soros is an important general under his command. He also needs the other party to defend the line of defense. In this situation, beating or scolding him or simply executing him does not sound like a wise decision.

Obviously, the pressure from both sides now leaves no room for the high priest to act arbitrarily.
