Throne of Vientiane Civilization

This new discovery made Zhou Xu lose his sleep all of a sudden. After Silk exited, he sat there and fell into deep thought for a long time.

The emergence of this mercenary group is equivalent to the addition of another force.

Although from the current point of view, their population and military strength cannot be compared with that of a country, it is precisely because of this that this mercenary group has a bit of "barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes" gangster spirit, dealing with multiple forces It was not destroyed in between.

One of Zhou Xu's biggest worries now is that the other side saw that the situation was not good and hired those centaur mercenaries to fight.

Of course, he was not afraid of those centaur mercenaries coming to deal with him.

The centaurs are strong, but they are ultimately cavalry. Unless the city gates are blown to pieces and the city walls are collapsed to create a space and route for the cavalry to launch a surprise attack, it will be difficult for the cavalry in a normal siege. There is a place for it.

Based on this premise, Zhou Xu, who has occupied Huangsha City now, naturally knows what weapons and equipment are on the opposite side.

Among the siege equipment, the main siege ram is the cart.

It's not that the battering ram can't break the city gate, it's just that it's not that easy. It's not easy just to transport the battering ram outside the city gate, let alone use it to collapse the city gate later.

In this way, in a short period of time, they themselves do not need to worry about how much threat the Centaur mercenaries can pose to them.

What he was really worried about was that the other party would use the troops on hand to deal with them, and then hire centaur mercenaries to deal with the rebels that might appear behind them.

You know, the rebels in the uprising are a very important part of Zhou Xu's plan, and they are 'good comrades' who help them share the pressure.

If this 'good comrade' was suppressed by mercenaries in the blink of an eye, the other side would be able to concentrate all their forces on Huangsha City.

At that time, with three to four thousand or even four to five thousand troops pressed here, this city will be 100% undefendable.

During this period, he also thought about how they might as well hire those Centaur mercenaries and deal with the First Emperor in turn. From the previous intelligence, it was not difficult to see that the way those Centaur mercenaries selected their customers was to see who gave the most.

However, Zhou Xu soon realized that they might not be able to compete against the other side if they fought for money.

It's not that they have confirmed that the other party is richer than themselves, but because of currency issues.

While occupying the Huangsha City military camp, in addition to the ordnance, equipment and food supplies stored in the military camp, the remaining military expenses here undoubtedly fell into their hands.

And these military expenses are just a big box of white money.

Combining the information obtained by the interrogation office, Zhou Xu thoroughly confirmed that the currency here is basically the same as the ancient currency system in their original world, using gold, silver and copper coins.

At the same time, there is a high probability that this is also the mainstream currency in the world.

Based on this premise, he doesn't think he can be richer than the other party.

"This is a real headache."

Zhou Xu also knew that it would be useless for him to continue to struggle with this issue now, but now that he has discovered such a thing, there are many times when he doesn't have to worry about it if he doesn't want to.

Zhou Xu, who was supposed to fall asleep at eight or nine o'clock, didn't fall asleep until midnight because of this incident.

Early the next morning, although his precise biological clock allowed him to wake up on time, because he had not had a good rest that night, his eyes that he barely opened at this moment were filled with bloodshot eyes, and his head felt dizzy. Heavy.

Zhou Xu knew in his heart that he was in such a bad state now that he wouldn't be able to do much even if he got up.

So he called in an elf knight who was guarding outside.

"Go find Shi Lei and ask him to pay attention to everything. Breakfast will be brought directly inside later. I want to rest this morning."

"yes."

In response, the elf knight, a member of the personal guard, hurriedly carried out his mission.

After a simple breakfast, Zhou Xu lay directly back on the bed. Even if he couldn't fall asleep for a while, he forced himself to close his eyes and rest.

He was already tired, but it wasn't like he really couldn't sleep, so he gradually fell asleep.

At the same time, the arrival of Bai Tu and the others made the military camp in Huangsha City become a little crowded.

It was breakfast time at this moment, and the soldiers of Dazhou had already formed a line consciously.

Although Zhou Xu told Zhuo Ge and the others to have less contact with Bai Tu and the others for the time being, they couldn't stop eating, right?

Looking at the centaurs headed by Drogo from a distance, the slave laborers of the Patriot Kingdom all had mixed emotions.

However, after Bai Tu came back yesterday, he had already made it clear to them, and they were not idiots who couldn't listen at all.

In addition, they all knew that after the defeat of the Wei Kingdom, their biggest enemy was Huaxia, the first emperor Yan Sheng, not some centaur.

Those mercenaries are paid to do things. Today they can pay mercenaries to beat you, and you can pay mercenaries to beat them tomorrow. To put it bluntly, that's what it is.

Of course, it is inevitable to understand that what should be uncomfortable will still be uncomfortable.

During this process, Drogo and the others who were queuing up for breakfast could naturally feel the complex gazes falling on them.

You know, the centaurs are a very keen race.

Faced with this situation, Drogo just glanced at Bai Tu and the others casually, and then ignored them.

After all, he already knew about the centaur mercenaries here.

For this reason, he called Diack over last night, who was ready to go to bed, to discuss the matter.

According to their thinking, in order to expand and develop their ethnic group, they must want to recruit the other party and let those centaur mercenaries join them and become a family.

However, it is not difficult to see from the limited information that the opponent is not small in size and not weak in strength. It seems that they are doing well here. If they want to be incorporated, it may not be so smooth.

Thinking of this, Drogo and Diak also began to worry.

But the difference is that they are both worried, but it does not affect their sleep at all, which is also very caring.

"Sir, can we go there?"

The hard laborers of the Wei Kingdom did not stare at Drogo and the others all the time. As the smell of food spread, their stomachs began to wail. They couldn't help but ask Bai Tu a question.

This question really knocked Bai Tu over.

He didn't know if they could even queue up for meals!

In terms of status, they have surrendered to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they should have a bite of this meal. However, considering that their current status is quite special, this makes him a little unsure.

At this moment, Hilke, who noticed the situation here, came over.

After all, he brought Bai Tu and the others back, so their king also told him to pay more attention in the next few days and take care of those who should be taken care of.

"What's wrong? What are you doing standing here? Go get your meal in line!"

When these words fell into the ears of the hard laborers of the Wei Kingdom, they were like sounds of nature. Many of them couldn't help but cheered on the spot. Even Bai Tu's face showed a hint of joy.

"Thank you, sir!"
