Chapter 155 Running away
【The question before us, fight or run.】

According to Tang Zhao's own thinking, the hobgoblin's defense is not strict now, he can still seize the opportunity to make a move, try to see if he can destroy the opponent's baggage, if successful, it can more or less delay the opponent's attacking pace, fight for more a little time.

But let alone the risk of scaring the snake, the leader of the blood fist hobgoblin does not know what kind of character he is, at least he is at the fourth rank, and it is not impossible to spend the capital at the fifth rank.

The former is difficult to deal with, while the latter is unmatched. Fighting them alone is not a good option.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Tang Zhao still chose to act—in this swamp, the opponent's camp was forcibly divided into several pieces by the natural environment, and their reaction speed would definitely be affected. It would be a pity not to make a move.

Maintaining a miniaturized state, Tang Zhao was about to approach the hobgoblin's barracks from the waterway, when he suddenly noticed a conspicuous spiritual reaction from nearby.

Subconsciously, he wanted to use his psychic power to suppress and fight back, but he discovered in time that the other party's psychic power was not offensive, so he turned to guard instead of launching an attack.

"It's been a long time."

The other party took the initiative to contact Tang Zhao. He had some impression of the voice, which was a hobgoblin commander he had met before.At that time, they were confronting each other, and later reached a temporary settlement. Both sides took a step back, and neither of them fought with their lives.

Speaking of which, he can be regarded as a hero. To show his sincerity at the beginning, he threw a demon scroll to Tang Zhao, which led to the subsequent series of things. Otherwise, the development of things now may have subtle deviations.

In view of this reason, Tang Zhao didn't have much hostility towards this hobgoblin, and he could barely be classified as a "beneficial partner". It could not be ruled out that he was planning some conspiracy behind his back.

【Long time no see, you switched to Blood Fist? 】

"Basically, the Green Spear didn't get any benefits from last year's offensive, and you even suffered a lot of losses, so it's not suitable for me to stay any longer.

I said before that I wanted to pay a visit, but that wasn't my intention, but judging from the results, it's pretty much the same. "

[If you have anything to say, just say it directly, I really hate going around in circles. 】

"What are you going to do?"

[As you can see, attack the hobgoblin's baggage, and set fire to it if possible. 】

Tang Zhao didn't shy away from it, and directly stated his purpose. Anyway, the other party probably didn't care.

"In this case, I suggest you not to make a move. The supervisor is Baviro, a fifth-rank warrior, and he is quite prestigious in the Bloodfist clan. If you fight him, you can only rely on his rough skin and thick flesh. Up to 3 minutes."

Tang Zhao's mood sank, he was afraid of something.

【Then what is your purpose in patrolling the swamp at this time? 】

"Patrol? You are quite humorous. I am here to wait for you. The purpose is simple. I will teach you how to burn the hobgoblin's luggage."

It is not difficult to do what the other party said. He is a warlock, and he has obviously improved in the past few months. Things like psionic detection are hard to guard against.

Hearing the words, Tang Zhao came out of the water and stared at the other party's ferocious face.

For a moment, he felt that the other party was more pleasing to the eye than the elves, and the beauty of the soul could heal the physical deficiencies, of course it was only for a moment.

[What do you want to do, tell me, and I will judge. 】

Seeing that Tang Zhao promised to agree, the other party didn't talk nonsense, and directly pulled out a map from his pocket. It looked like an overall bird's-eye view of the camp, and at the same time, there were many densely packed thin lines drawn on it.

Immediately afterwards, he began to explain to Tang Zhao with confidence.

Those thin lines are the route map of the patrol team. At the same time, he also told Tang Zhao the storage location of the luggage and the configuration of the guards. With this information, it is much easier to do it.

The other party has never suffered from him, and has not prepared for the infiltration of small creatures, but to be honest, it is impossible to guard against it if it is prepared. The target is really a bit small, and the environment is still so chaotic.

"You should be thankful that those demons haven't been deployed on the battlefield yet. Hobgoblins are the same as ever before, lacking spellcasters. Otherwise, if any spellcasters sit in the camp, your infiltration work will not go so smoothly."

[It seems that the relationship between the devil and you is quite good, and you are almost wearing a pair of pants. 】

The hobgoblin warlock's face sank: "Not including me and my partner, those guys are killing themselves, which is one of the main reasons why I choose to tell you this information now."

Now, the question that troubled Tang Zhao was answered - a character like Warlock must have a deeper understanding of the power of demons, and it is only natural for him to resist demons.

[Well, as long as your information is correct, I will do my job well. 】

"It's best to hurry up, don't delay until midnight, now the supervising army and several senior commanders are going to deal with the lizardman demon followers."

[How about the details, is it convenient to disclose the information of the Black Lizard people? 】

"It's nothing." He shrugged, "The black lizardmen will join our military plan. Baviro is discussing the specific form with them, and maybe he will provide them with weapons and instructors."

The word "black lizard man" was newly made up by Tang Zhao, but it was very appropriate, and the warlock could understand what it meant, so he simply followed Tang Zhao's words.

[Okay, the last question, what do you want to do after I burn the supplies, leave or stay? 】

"Stay here. When the time is right, I will stab those demons in the heart. I hope you will convey this news to humans."

After the news was communicated, Tang Zhao didn't write any ink, and immediately continued to dive into the water and swim in the direction of the hobgoblin camp.
-
Standing near the camp, Tang Zhao didn't act in a hurry, but neatly and carefully observed the movement track of the hobgoblin patrol on duty, and he was ready to act only after confirming that they were exactly in line with what the warlock said.

He's not an idiot, he just means what other people say. He never fully trusted that hobgoblin, and believed that the other party had the same idea.

After avoiding several groups of patrols without any risk, Tang Zhao finally came to the high ground where the supplies were stored.

The entire highland was full of boxes, most of which were covered with a layer of cloth, and the waterproof effect was not very good, but according to the warlock, what they brought this time were either things that were not afraid of water, or things that were sealed inside. It doesn't matter what the outer layer is like.

Looking around, no soldier noticed him. He immediately used his spiritual power to control the collapse of the surrounding torch holders. The fire source flew five or six meters away and hit the luggage box.

His psychic power is actually not weak now, and he can do fantastic things like fetching objects from a distance, but the cost performance is not very good, and the items controlled by him cannot move at high speed, so the effect on the battlefield is very general, but using It is still very useful to create trouble for the other party.

Seeing that the fire was gradually burning, Tang Zhao was still worried, and used his spiritual power to control the fires. Tang Zhao used his spiritual power to throw the ignited things to the surrounding combustibles, fueling the fire again.

The task has been accomplished, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, Tang Zhao quickly dived into the water and evacuated the scene.

Not long after he entered the water, a low-pitched horn sounded in the camp, which was the alarm of the enemy's invasion.

The hobgoblins in the camp were ready to go in a very short time, and began to search for traces of the arsonists around them, but it was dark now, and the surroundings were full of black water, which brought great difficulties to their search work.

In the end, Tang Zhao ran out of the camp smoothly.

This activity will not cause too much damage to the other party. They just throw the goods into the water. Although some of the goods will be polluted, it is better than reimbursement.
-
Tang Zhao's ability to distinguish directions in the wild is not bad. With the help of the stars and the direction of the wind, he found the Honglin tribe, and then went directly to Honglin himself.

[I went over there to check the situation. To be honest, I am not optimistic. We are afraid that we will not be able to deal with them, because the demon believers have found helpers. They now have nearly [-] brave and skilled fighters, and there is also a fifth-level powerful fighter. I'm no match for him in singles. 】

Honglin's expression fluctuated a bit: "Let me run away?"

[It can be considered that we don't have the strength to face each other head-on right now, and that Tier [-] fighter leaves us helpless. I need help. 】

"You can't abandon your homeland," Honglin turned back, opened his arms, and showed Tang Zhao the paintings on the wall. "This is a place to grow and multiply, and it cannot be given to demon believers."

【You can go to their camp to see the situation in person. The number of hobgoblin fighters is more than the number of your remaining tribes. If you don’t leave now, you can only reap death and slavery. 】

Tang Zhao was also quite helpless, as long as the opponent had a large number of people, it would be okay to say that the fifth-level supervising army really couldn't deal with it.After all, this is still a world with extraordinary power. Guerrilla tactics can only be defeated one by one when encountering particularly powerful experts. The gap in panel attributes cannot be smoothed out by familiarity with the terrain.

[There are not many things I can guarantee, a place for you to live in, and you don’t have to worry about food in the short term. I believe that we can defeat the enemy in the end, and you can still return to your homeland by then.You think about it carefully, without a piece of land, it is nothing to the lizard people, but if there is no population, the lizard people will die. 】

Tang Zhao can't care about other things, let's draw the big cake first, these lizard people really can't stay here, firstly, their labor force will be used by the enemy, and secondly, Tang Zhao needs them.

Now is a good opportunity, it is the time when the lizard people are most passive, and it is also the best time to fool them. If they can fool these lizard people away, Tang Zhao will make a lot of money.

Even though they behave like wild beasts in many cases, they can't hide their obvious advantages: they are strong and strong, with thick skin and thick flesh. There are many races in the world, but there are not many races with such strong fighting power.

You can also tell from Baviro's behavior. Going to talk to them in person is a sign of importance. Even if they are the goblin cannon fodder of their clan, they are at most adjutants. Obviously, their importance is higher than that of ordinary goblins. of.

There was silence for more than ten seconds, and finally Honglin nodded: "Living is the most important thing, you are right. The Honglin clan will go, and other clans will also join."
-
The shaman has a lot of power, and Honglin said one thing in the clan. If he let go, no one else would be a problem. The whole tribe immediately started to pack their bags.

At the same time, Red Scale convened the shamans of various tribes overnight to hold the so-called "ancestral spirit conference". After a verbal battle (the strength of the lizard people), all the shamans finally agreed to relocate.

Maybe they don't have a concept of fifth-order powerhouses. To be honest, Tang Zhao has no concept of this, but they still have a concept of more than 2000 elite fighters, which is beyond the scope of their ability to deal with it.

Seeing that all the tribes agreed to retreat, Tang Zhao, who should be the most happy, was quite troubled, because he was responsible for the basic necessities of life of these people.

【The place to live is pretty easy to say, a lot of people can squeeze into the river valley, and there are lakes nearby, where they can live, but food is more difficult.】

He is well prepared to deal with the siege battle. The wheat reserves are large, and it is reasonable to say that it is not a big problem to have more people, but these lizardmen are all carnivorous animals.
It is definitely okay to let them eat a few vegetarian meals once in a while, but if the number and frequency are too high, they will definitely suffer from malnutrition.Carnivorous animals have a weak ability to digest things like starch and cellulose, and it is difficult to convert what they eat into nutrients.

Powerful strength also needs to be maintained by eating. Either spend a lot of time eating plants, or use a higher risk to hunt prey, the problem of trade-offs, generally speaking, there must be one of the two.

Of course, this is an unscientific world, and it is not certain that there are any strange creatures.

[I can only trouble Andrea one more time. Before the enemy's attack begins, I will try my best to gather some meat. The dwarves can get some livestock. The vegetarians of the elves have no hope, no, it seems that there is some hope]

Elven bread contains a lot of nutrition, which seems to be able to solve this problem. Tang Zhao is going to have a good talk with the elves to see if they can let them go.

The next morning, when neither the hobgoblin nor the black lizardmen made any further moves, the various lizardmen tribes began to migrate.

The preparation was quick, mainly because there was really nothing to take away. The group gathered at the edge of the Kubango swamp and camped in place.

Their food reserves are not bad, there are many things like dried meat and fish, and reptiles themselves are energy-efficient, and almost do not need to maintain a constant body temperature. It is not a problem to last for two or three weeks, but Tang Zhao wants to be safe , to withdraw these two thousand lizardmen within the next three days.

Tang Zhao had no time to waste. He passed through the human city wall, which was in vain, and went straight to the headquarters of the Helm Church.

The distance between the two places is indeed not far. After Tang Zhao entered Luford, he took the time to find Andrea and told her to gather all available means of transportation and meat that could be bought in the shortest possible time, regardless of the cost. .

After finishing all this, Tang Zhao rushed to the headquarters of the Church of Helm immediately. The guard at the gate obviously knew him, and silently opened the gate for him.

Going deep into the church with ease, Tang Zhao found the "leader" Bo Ke and explained the situation to him concisely.
