Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1048: Jie Liancheng's Illusion
Facing the greenskin troops in front of them, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry were no big deal. The most troublesome ones were the three ogres that were completely beyond their expectations.

If we can’t deal with these three ogres, we won’t be able to defend the grassland pass.

"If we work together, can we kill one of them in a short time?"

Staring at the three ogres advancing as pioneers in the distance, Zhou Chongshan never thought of a one-on-one fight from the beginning.

Are you kidding me? According to the intelligence they had obtained from within the Great Zhou, the ogre was killed by several three-bow crossbows in the New North District, not to mention that he had also been killed by pit traps and burned by kerosene.

What is a three-bow crossbow? It is a cannon in the cold weapon era!
If you fire at a wall, it will hit the wall directly.

Speaking from an individual unit perspective, warriors in the Hundred Refining Realm have strong combat effectiveness. On the battlefield, killing enemy soldiers is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables for them.

But this does not mean that their destructive power can be comparable to that of the three-bow crossbow!

At least Zhou Chongshan believed that he did not have such strong killing power.

Facing Zhou Chongshan's question at this time, Xie Liancheng also shook his head with a serious expression.

"Hard to say."

If Zhou Chongshan only knew the information, then Jie Liancheng was at the scene at that time. He had witnessed how hard this thing was and how tenacious its vitality was!

This made Xie Liancheng feel unsure at the moment.

At the same time, the current situation is also very troublesome...

[If we wait until the ogres advance, the grassland pass will definitely be undefendable.]

[On the other hand, we took the initiative to fight our way out, but outside there were not only three ogres, but also a large group of greenskins. We had to have our own troops to cooperate with them to contain the greenskins on the other side and create a combat environment for us.]

[It just so happens that at this moment, the only troops available at the Grassland Pass are 500 soldiers from the Trap Camp. Compared to the enemy, the troops are overwhelmingly disadvantaged.]

[And the defense facilities at the grassland pass are pitifully weak. Once we rush out in full force, there's no guarantee that the Goblin Wolf Cavalry on the opposite side won't take advantage of the situation and rush into the grassland pass.]

At that moment, Xie Liancheng thought a lot in his mind, and then he felt that his brain was really not enough.

"What the hell!"

He has never been good at using his brain. Even before, when he followed Yan Sheng, he only needed to charge into battle and that was it, relying purely on his personal strength to fight.

This also means that once Xie Liancheng encounters troubles that cannot be solved by his own hard power, he will give up.

"Your Majesty should have received the news. Let's wait for the reinforcements to arrive..."

"Normally speaking, the reinforcements from Black Moon City will not arrive at the grassland pass until tomorrow morning."

At that time, the messenger who brought the urgent news from the Northeast came to their military camp first, so Zhou Chongshan had a basic idea of ​​when the messenger would arrive in Black Moon City.

After confirming this, it is not difficult to estimate the time when the reinforcements will arrive.

Upon hearing this, Xie Liancheng's face darkened.

Tomorrow morning?

Judging from the situation before us, even if the ogres on the opposite side move slowly, it is impossible for them to delay until tomorrow morning!
Maybe he understood Liancheng's thoughts, but Zhou Chongshan quickened his tone and spoke in a deep voice...

"Don't think too much. Take the initiative and let's try to work together to take one down first."

"What about the grassland pass?"

"Some greenskins, they just broke in." "Ah this..."

Zhou Chongshan's straightforward answer made Xie Liancheng feel stunned.

Zhou Chongshan continued to speak faster and said...

"If we can't deal with the ogres on the other side, a whole army of greenskins will break in."

"Moreover, important cities and fortresses in the grassland area are all defended by walls. Even if the Goblin Wolf Cavalry breaks in, they will basically be helpless against the defenses of the city walls."

Obviously, compared to Jie Liancheng who is not good at commanding troops at all, Zhou Chongshan, who has a three-star intelligence, has led the Xianzhen Camp for many years and participated in many wars. Through his accumulated war experience, his tactical mind and ability to analyze and control the situation are much stronger than Jie Liancheng.

After hearing these words, Jie Liancheng really felt as if he had suddenly realized something.

I felt like I was so stupid before that I didn't even think this through.

In fact, if these things happened under normal circumstances, he would not be confused.

But those who are bystanders can see clearly, while those who are involved are confused!
It is one thing to have a sharp mind when you are talking nonsense normally.

But when you really go to the battlefield to fight the enemy, facing the rapid changes in the situation on the scene and the impact of psychological pressure on yourself, whether your brain can still work is another matter.

Many ordinary people rely on their imagination and think that it is not difficult. But when they really go to the battlefield, their minds go blank and their legs swing wildly. What other thoughts can they have in their minds except escaping?
At this moment, Xie Liancheng's mental journey was really a bit complicated. He originally thought that Zhou Chongshan was just like him, who only knew how to fight and was a very pure and fierce general.

So at this time, he felt that as a time traveler, his mind might be more active and he needed to take charge of the overall situation and stabilize the situation.

In the end, who knew that Chunchun was just overthinking. Putting aside his individual strength, Zhou Chongshan next to him could handle the situation much better than him.

After just a few words, they saw the ogre getting closer and closer, and they didn't have much time left.

"Leave the three ogres on the opposite side to me, Colonel Hejie and Qiansui. Your mission is to withstand the offensive of the greenskin troops on the opposite side and buy time for us to deal with the ogres. Do you understand?!"

"clear!!!"

"Everyone mount your horses! Attack as cavalry!"

The size of the greenskin army is there. If they need to take the initiative to attack, how can the infantry alone withstand the overwhelming advantage of the greenskin army in terms of manpower?

It is necessary to use cavalry charge to suppress the opposing wave!
The well-trained soldiers of the Xianzhen Camp immediately switched from infantry to cavalry the moment they received the order.

"Charge the entire army!"

The iron hooves clattered on the ground, making a rumbling sound. The Vanguard Cavalry was like a giant steel beast out of a cage, sweeping straight towards the greenskin troops advancing towards them.

In the current situation, even if a cavalry unit uses the space in the canyon, the acceleration distance is completely insufficient.

However, in order to deal with similar situations, the soldiers in the Xianzhen Camp are also equipped with special emergency measures.

【Speed ​​enhancement! 】

At that moment, with the blessing of the power of mantra, the Vanguard Cavalry accelerated within the limited time and distance, bypassed the ogre in the front, and rushed straight towards the large greenskin army.

"The ambition to trap the enemy!"

"Death but no life!!!"
