Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 544 Psychological Game
  In the next few days, Zhou Xu seemed to have forgotten that there was still a war on the southern battlefield, and devoted all his energy to the mining of sharp crystals.

The lizard people's mining methods were too casual before. Even though a lot of the mine was dug, few safety measures were taken.

For the safety of the miners and to better improve mining efficiency, the first thing Zhou Xu did after leading the miners to the mine was to reinforce the mine.

Miners are indispensable to do this in their daily work, and now the operation is not unfamiliar. After a busy work, formal mining soon started.

After each batch of mined sharp crystals is packed and packaged in batches, the giant lizards are transported to the plain camp and temporarily handed over to Silk and the others for their care. When the energy channel is opened next time, they will be used once and for all. Ship them all back.

Zhou Xu has been busy with this matter these days. At this moment, the power of the mantra in his body has not yet returned to its peak. Now that Drogo and the others have rushed to the front line with weapons and equipment, there is no need for Zhou Xu to rush. It's been a few days, let's take care of the rear affairs first.

In the meantime, here on the front line...

Boleven obviously also knew that the rat men on the opposite side were cunning and suspicious by nature. If there was no movement for a long time after he arrived on the frontline battlefield, the rat men would most likely become suspicious.

According to the latest news brought back by the scouts ahead, the rat people have begun to make moves again recently.

Bolevin knew why, because it was winter.

Although the rainforest area where they are located is not very cold no matter how cold it is all year round, after leaving their area, the further away from them, the colder the winter climate becomes.

Therefore, when winter comes, the rat people also have to face a situation where it is difficult to obtain food.

Once the rat people run out of food, they will immediately start a war.

As cannon fodder among the Skaven tribe, a large number of Skaven slave soldiers will die in the process, and these corpses will immediately become food for other Skaven slave soldiers around them, thus greatly reducing their internal food pressure.

At the same time, they could also inflict casualties on their mortal enemies, the lizardmen.

From the perspective of the rat people, this can be said to have all the benefits and no harm.

[Once the Rat Man launches an offensive, if I don't take action, then it will basically become a definite fact that I have lost my power. At the same time, we will lose the initiative and fall into passivity. 】

Thinking of this, Bo Levin did not dare to delay at all, and directly summoned his subordinates.

"Quick, give the order immediately, let the large forces take action, and act as if you are going to take the initiative. Of course, you don't need to attack immediately. You can take your time. Do you understand what I mean?"

"understand!"

That subordinate is not stupid either. Bo Levin has already said it for this reason. How can he not understand the truth?

After saying yes, he quickly went to work.

Bolevin's meaning was obvious, he wanted to deceive the opponent first.

At this moment, the rat men on the opposite side are still a little unsure. Considering his presence, as long as their large force looks like they are about to take action, the rat men on the opposite side will most likely switch to the attack immediately out of caution. To defend, adopt a defensive stance and wait and see.

In this way, they can buy some time again.

After all the arrangements were made on his side, Bo Levin, who seemed to have remembered something, hurriedly spoke again...

"By the way, invite that, that Captain Zhou over."

In the past, the Lizardmen clan was his one-stop shop. When he made arrangements, who did he need to consult with?
  But things are different now.

As Zhou Chongshan was the representative sent by their king, Bo Laiwen was still a little wary of him.

Not to mention that judging from the previous battles on the plains, this was also a strong general with outstanding strength. Later, when he really fought with the rat men, at the critical moment, he still expected others to help him with the cavalry troops.

Logically speaking, he would have to discuss a major matter like mobilizing a large force with the other party, but Bollevin was used to being arbitrary. If he was asked to change it for a while, he really couldn't change it. Just now he directly Forgot the existence of Zhou Chongshan. Fortunately, Zhou Chongshan is relatively easy to talk to.

Zhou Xu asked him to come over, but he just asked him to see the situation and wait for the opportunity. As for how the lizard man was going to fight, he didn't let him take care of it.

After all, Zhou Xu also knew in his heart that Zhou Chongshan was indeed a powerful general in terms of combat effectiveness, but when it came to the ability to command operations, that was really not his area of ​​expertise.

Compared to Zhou Chongshan, Bo Laiwen, who has been defeated by Rat Man for so many years, is definitely much more reliable.

Rather than letting Zhou Chongshan become a monk halfway to do this, it would be better to leave the commanding work to Bo Levin to save the trouble.

After a brief conversation, Bo Levin secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhou Chongshan had no ideas.

Afterwards, looking at the other person's back as he left, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

[Could it be that the king wants to test my abilities? 】

In Bo Laiwen's view, Zhou Chongshan's existence represents their king, so doesn't Zhou Chongshan's attitude also represent their king's attitude?

When he formally met their king for the first time in the temple, it was not difficult to see that their king admired Soros very much, which put a lot of pressure on Bolevin.

At this time, I also secretly made up my mind that I must perform well this time and compare with that boy Soros!

The small episode here did not affect the actions of the lizardman army outside.

Since that battle, the lizardman army, which had been dormant for a long time, finally took action.

The rat scouts who were observing in the dark quickly noticed the situation here and hurried back to report.

After learning that the Lizardmen's high priest had gone to the front line in person, as the leader of the Claw tribe, Claw obviously couldn't sit still and directly led his troops to the front line.

As soon as the claws arrived, the supreme command of the frontline rat army would naturally change hands.

After listening to the scout's report, Talon suddenly frowned.

Ever since the lizardman high priest appeared before, the lizardman army has been completely silent.

At first, it could be said that it was because the large army had just suffered a major defeat and needed to rest and recuperate.

But counting the days, it has been a long time, and it is not that long to take a break.

This couldn't help but make Talon suspicious of the lizardman's high priest.

In addition, the food pressure has been increasing recently, so I issued an order and prepared to start pushing forward!
  No matter what the opponent is, there is nothing wrong with using the slave soldiers at the bottom to find out the details of the opponent first.

Unexpectedly, the other party also made a move.

This undoubtedly disrupted Talon's original plan to a certain extent.

After a brief struggle, Talon finally gave the order...

"Give me the order to stop advancing and prepare to defend!"

Obviously, he was still very afraid of the notorious Bollevin and was unwilling to take risks easily.
