Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1170 Not Like a Human
After reading the report sent back by Shi Lei, Zhou Xu immediately gave a reply and sent another Giant Eagle Knight on standby in the capital to the front line.

At the same time, on the Copperforge front...

After the night attack that night, the greenskins did not take any action the whole day the next day. Until late at night, accompanied by shouts of "enemy attack", the greenskins launched another night attack.

After a whole day's rest, the soldiers were in good condition.

After hearing the sound of the enemy attack, Shi Lei immediately put on his armor and climbed onto the top of the wall. Needless to say, the greenskins were definitely coming for them again.

Although yesterday's night raid not only failed to achieve good results, but also gave the dwarves an opportunity to cause them many casualties, the greenskins did not seem to change their idea of ​​​​night raid.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with the greenskin’s idea.

As long as the Great Zhou troops are still there, they will be affected by vision problems at night.

If the previous war between the greenskins and Copperforge was almost the same whether it was fought during the day or at night, then the arrival of the Great Zhou troops, which do not have night vision, will make the greenskins' offensive more advantageous after nightfall.

Of course, after suffering the loss in the battle last night, the greenskins obviously did not dare to repeat yesterday's operation tonight.

While providing sufficient troops to the main battlefield to ensure the stability of the war situation, an offensive was launched towards the defense line where the Da Zhou troops were located, trying to break through the defense line here and thus open up the situation.

However, the total strength of the greenskins is undoubtedly limited, and the dwarves of Copperforge are no pushovers. In order to suppress them and ensure that they can't launch a direct counterattack like they did the night before and cause casualties to them, we have to use heavy troops!

But in this way, the troops available for the battlefield of the Great Zhou will inevitably be reduced, and the pressure on the Great Zhou troops will naturally decrease.

"Compared to last night, Da Zhou's troops are more adapted to nighttime combat."

Standing on the wall of the neighboring defense line, Balai came over to check the battle situation out of caution. After seeing the performance of the Da Zhou troops next door, he couldn't help but sigh.

The accumulation of experience and the reduction of pressure, these two factors combined, made the performance of the Da Zhou troops that night better than before.

However, Shi Lei still had no intention of exerting too much effort. His main focus was to hold the defense line and everything would be fine. He could leave the rest to the dwarf troops.

It just so happens that the greenskins now like to launch attacks at night, which gives them even more reason not to hold out.

Battles like this lasted for a whole week, allowing Shi Lei to clearly feel the greenskins' purpose: the other side wanted to overwhelm them through continuous night attacks.

But the reality was obviously not what the greenskins wished, and the overall performance of the Great Zhou army remained stable.

This made Woking quite proud recently. After all, it was he who tried his best to persuade his father and uncle Bale to form an alliance with the Great Zhou and requested the Great Zhou to send reinforcements to support them.

Da Zhou's performance at this moment undoubtedly fully proved how wise his decision at that time was.

Standing on the wall of the neighboring war zone, Bale withdrew his gaze from the Great Zhou defense line and looked at his nephew standing beside him with a smug look on his face, and he was speechless.

After the greenskin army retreated, Bale had a frown on his face all the way back to the rear camp, as if he had something heavy on his mind.

"Uncle Barley, what are you worried about?"

In Woking's opinion, there is nothing to worry about recently. On the contrary, they should celebrate.

But Bale's brows furrowed even more tightly.

"As a human soldier, don't you think the performance of the Great Zhou soldiers is a bit too strong?"

It’s not that Bale has any opinion on humans. As reinforcements, he hopes that the Great Zhou troops will be as strong as possible. But he has seen humans before, and the strength of this race is there for all to see.

Take the human countries in the previous coalition as an example. They are essentially unable to withstand such high-frequency and high-intensity combat. Once they encounter such a battle, their only way is to rely on the large size of the tribe to continuously rotate and give the soldiers time to breathe and rest. Bale does not think there is anything wrong with this. After all, being particularly fertile and having a large tribe size is one of the advantages of humans.

However, the combat intensity displayed by the Great Zhou soldiers this week completely exceeded Bale's imagination.

As the son of the king, Woking will have to lead troops sooner or later. Therefore, with the mentality of cultivating the other party, Bale expressed his thoughts and asked Woking for his opinion.

“Maybe because they are well-trained and strong-willed?”

Woking, who said this, seemed a little lacking in confidence.

And Bale shook his head.

"The soldiers of the Great Zhou are indeed well-trained and tenacious, but this still cannot explain the intensity they have shown this week."

It is no exaggeration to say that their performance completely refreshed Bale's understanding of human troops.

It was a new day, and before daybreak, the shouts of "enemy attack" spread throughout the camp again.

Shi Lei woke up from his sleep with a start. The fatigue accumulated from commanding the battle last night, coupled with the lack of sleep, made him feel a little dazed.

"Bring me a basin of cold water."

Cold water in winter is no different from ice.

The cold water hit his face, stinging his cheeks and making Shi Lei sober up all of a sudden.

During this process, the personal soldiers nearby reported the situation to Shi Lei as quickly as possible.

After listening to the report, Shi Lei came to his senses and quickly figured out what the greenskins were up to.

"In the past week, the greenskins have been attacking in the middle of the night and resting during the day. They have been maintaining this rhythm to paralyze us. After a long time, after we finish the battle at night, we will relax and start to rest, and then they will suddenly attack us back."

Speaking of this, Shi Lei couldn't help but utter a "tsk tsk" sound.

It is not difficult to see from this that the greenskins also have someone who knows how to deal with things.

"Cheer up, everyone!!"

Wearing winter clothes and armor, Shi Lei climbed up to the top of the wall and started to mobilize loudly.

"We just experienced a night battle. I know everyone is tired, but the greenskins are the same! Greenskins are also flesh and blood, they will also feel tired!"

"Before, they only dared to launch attacks at night because we did not have night vision, which would give them an advantage. But even so, they were unable to break through the defense line guarded by our Great Zhou!"

"And now! The sky is already half bright. Without the influence of vision, we will only be stronger! Let those stupid greenskins see how powerful our Great Zhou soldiers are!!"

After leading troops for many years, Shi Lei has become more mature, and so is his speaking ability. He is no longer embarrassed as when he was young and didn't know what to say even when mobilizing the entire army.

At this moment, Shi Lei drew out his sword and shouted loudly...

"For the Emperor!"

"For the Emperor!!!"
