Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 55 Embarrassing situation

Although Shi Lei's upper limit of intelligence is only three stars, the flexibility of his own mind is by no means comparable to that of ordinary people with two stars. It is a piece of cake for him to draw inferences from one example and apply it flexibly.

Learning how their leader arranged, the deployment at the Salt Lake camp was quickly completed.

Looking up at the sky, the weather is not good today, it is cloudy.

However, Shi Lei can roughly estimate what time it is now.

It was already afternoon when the patrol team they deployed outside the black forest met the person on the opposite side for the first time.

Considering the efficiency of the return of the people on the opposite side, it should not be too early when the tribe on the other side receives the news. If they want to take action, the time to wait here may not be close to the evening, and it may even be dark in a short time.

For this era, it is not a wise decision to act at such an awkward time.

Therefore, according to Shi Lei's thinking, no matter how fast the other party moves, if they want to formally start their actions, they will have to wait until tomorrow morning.

During this process, the tribe member who rushed to the Black Moon camp at full speed according to his order also arrived in the evening and reported the news to Zhou Xu.

Zhou Xu, who confirmed the content of the message, frowned unconsciously.

【This is really a leaky house and it rains all night...】

This morning, the tribe just caught a cold.

Although the things that should be arranged and instructed have already been arranged and instructed, at the same time, judging from the situation of this day, everyone has performed well.

But before the cold problem is completely resolved, he obviously doesn't want to add more unstable factors.

Not to mention this matter, it was very troublesome for him.

In fact, it was more convenient for him that those people appeared here.

Because most of the tribe's manpower is now concentrated in the Black Moon Camp, and considering the combat value, he and Zhou Zhongshan should be the ones with the highest combat value in the tribe.

If he had to encounter enemies anyway, then coming directly from here would definitely save him trouble.

But now, the trouble was in the Salt Lake camp, so he had to face the problem of deploying troops to support him.

Under this premise, the most troublesome thing is that you are not sure whether the enemy will attack immediately.

Suppose he is in a hurry to send someone over to support immediately.

As a result, the other party will not come tomorrow, and the development of their Black Moon camp will be greatly slowed down.

Because for Zhou Xu at this time, the manpower in his hand is too limited.

Except for Zhou Zhongshan, who has outstanding individual combat power, and he stays in the camp to deal with emergencies at any time.

The only serious 'soldier' ​​is probably their patrol squad that shoulders the task of patrolling and guarding.

Other combat forces are scattered in various departments of the tribe, and when they encounter enemies, they are pulled out as 'soldiers'.

So once support is needed, the work of various departments in the Black Moon camp will be greatly affected.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu also had a headache.

It's not good to have a large territory, sometimes it's easy to be overwhelmed.

If they only have one camp with more than 60 tribe members in it, then no matter which way they face the enemy, they can directly attack with all their strength.

But once the number of camps increases and the personnel start to disperse, it will be difficult to do this.

At this time, Zhou Xu was undoubtedly thinking about this matter.

After a short period of contemplation, he made a decision...

"Jinghong, let go of your exploration mission tomorrow and stay at the Black Moon camp. While ensuring the safety of the camp, wait for my news and rush to the Salt Lake camp at any time."

"Yes!"

Facing the arrangement from Zhou Xu, Ye Jinghong had no objection and quickly agreed.

Immediately, Zhou Xu glanced away...

"Chongshan, early tomorrow morning, you order five people, and go with me to the Salt Lake camp to confirm the situation."

"understand!"

"Okay, let's get ready to cook, go to bed early after dinner, and we will start as early as possible tomorrow."

After all, he doesn't know how far the opposite tribe is from the Salt Lake Camp.

Blind guess for about half a day.

After all, in this era, considering the time to turn back and forth, the maximum moving distance of an ordinary scouting unit is about the same.

Under this premise, it is assumed that the other party will also set off towards the Salt Lake camp early tomorrow morning and launch an offensive.

At that time, whoever can get there first will depend on luck.

Don't think that half a day at most will have little impact.

Under normal circumstances, the battle between the two tribes is simply an armed conflict between dozens of people. If the fight is fierce, the battle will end soon.

In other words, there was a possibility that the battle would have ended before they arrived.

Of course, Zhou Xu, who has seen Shi Lei's panel, still has some confidence in Shi Lei.

The biggest problem at the Salt Lake camp is that there are not enough combat units.

At that time, even if Shi Lei can show his abilities and stabilize the situation, there will be no guarantee that there will be no serious casualties in the Salt Lake Camp.

This is also what Zhou Xu does not want to see.

After dinner, Zhou Xu called Ye Jinghong again, told him carefully, and then went back to the tent to rest.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Zhou Zhongshan and the others were called to carry some skeletons on their backs that could be used as extra combat power, and they rushed towards the Salt Lake camp as fast as they could.

During this process, Zhou Xu could clearly feel that their movement efficiency had improved.

It is different from the time in the original world.

In the original world, he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, and the nutrition he accumulated on weekdays was enough to keep him alive and kicking even if he didn't eat breakfast.

But it was different in this primitive world. They only ate one meal a day, not to mention accumulating any nutrients in their daily life. Even Zhou Xu, whose body was quite normal before, was now skinny and skinny.

Before doing it differently, after such a long journey, they must be tired and dizzy, so they were forced to stop and rest.

But now, although they were all sweating profusely and panting heavily, their mental state was pretty good, and they didn't feel dizzy or dizzy.

After breakfast, it was really different.

Exhaling a long breath, wiping the sweat from his forehead, Zhou Xu looked up at the sky.

It was a cloudy day, and the sun was hidden behind the clouds, but through the light, he could still roughly judge the current position of the sun.

"It should be like ninety o'clock in the morning right now?"

After confirming, Zhou Xu waved at Zhou Zhongshan.

"Let's work harder, we're not far from the Salt Lake Camp, we'll rest when we get there!"

However, what Zhou Xu didn't know at this time was that before they arrived, the Salt Lake camp had already ushered in the invaders!
