Chapter 209
For commanding a large corps to fight, which requires extremely strong military literacy and deployment capabilities, Tang Zhao has more than enough energy, but he is familiar with such a small-scale battle involving dozens of people. You can also maximize your ability in battle - too many people will suppress individual advantages, and too few people will be inefficient, and dozens or hundreds of people are just right.

There are a large number of magicians in Keluo, and there are so many of them in this elite army that they can walk all over the place. Thanks to this, the defense on the other side of the river is very tight. Not to mention the patrolling guards everywhere, there are flying in the sky. The giant bats are densely covered with detection magic circles, which can capture any sign of trouble.

Faced with this situation, the ideal solution is of course to use superb technology to avoid all checkpoints and patrols, but this is definitely unrealistic, not to mention that Tang Zhao himself does not have this ability, and there is a group of soldiers behind him. Definitely not capable of this.

So there is no doubt that we can only choose the second best solution.

At [-] or [-] o'clock in the middle of the night, Tang Zhao seized a gap period when the patrol team temporarily left, and directly recovered to the maximum size, quickly crossed the half-meter-deep river, and then began to destroy the surrounding detection magic circle.

Without concealing his existence and actions, Tang Zhao's unscrupulous behavior naturally aroused a reaction-two full-staffed infantry teams rushed out of the barracks quickly and surrounded him.

Different from the situation in Waterdeep City, the regular infantry over there are made up of a bunch of undead creatures. Occasionally, the armed level of some infantry is actually not high, and most of the resources are given to mages. Things, equipment and training levels are worthy of the investment of the Kolo people.

Now these are obviously different, equipped with quite thick armor, with beautiful etching patterns and three-dimensional carvings on it, it looks very valuable.This is good in the era of cold weapons. You can basically guess the combat effectiveness by looking at the equipment you wear.

The first time Tang Zhao met these fighters, he chose to explode and rush into the enemy's formation, and began bloody hand-to-hand combat.

There is no need to use fancy abilities, the superposition of weight and size makes it difficult for these fighters to deal with, it is difficult to cause any damage to Tang Zhao with a desperate blow before dying, only a few weak spots are left on his scales. scratches.

After tearing apart the tight defensive formation, Tang Zhao rushed directly to the enemy's camp with unabated momentum.

The defense of the Keluo people was not too bad. Three dazzling pillars of fire rose into the sky, attacking Tang Zhao from top to bottom, but because the caster's rank was not high enough, they could not effectively kill him. Zhao only felt a burning sensation on his body, like being poked with an awl, but his condition did not decline.

At this time, the flames temporarily covered Tang Zhao's sight, and two warriors wearing different armors appeared on both sides of Tang Zhao like ghosts, attacking his relatively weak abdomen.

Tang Zhao, who had been guarding against similar situations, reacted quite quickly, but he was still unable to dodge in time, and was stabbed in the abdomen, leaving a long bloodstain.

After quickly backing away from the opponent, Tang Zhao looked down at the wound on his side. Apart from the normal oozing blood, some kind of black liquid was still flowing out. His own resistance to curses/magic was not strong. It took effect, indicating that this is not Colo's common magic, but some kind of poison in the true sense.

[You guys are quite formal to me, let’s just say I’m flattered. 】

Tang Zhao was in a good mood, and he was still in the mood to joke around at this time, but the two soldiers on the opposite side looked serious and didn't talk to each other, which made Tang Zhao feel a little unhappy.

Using venom has never been his privilege, others can still use it, even if his physique and resistance are super strong, after the venom of others is strong enough to a certain level, it can still kill him.

The two fighters in front of them were obviously waiting for him to attack and harass them - equipped with a two-handed sword that is very abrupt on a large-scale battlefield, it is convenient to break through Tang Zhao's scales and cause large-scale wounds, and equipped with light armor to increase flexibility It is a very targeted approach to avoid fighting Tang Zhao head-on.

It is hard to find two elite fifth-tier fighters anywhere, especially in Keluo, a country that values ​​magic so much that it is paranoid. I am afraid there are not many in the whole country. That's why Tang Zhao said this as a joke, but it is indeed the case.

Although the information obtained is incomplete, the Kolo people know that there is a highly intelligent monster on the opposite side, and the biggest feature of this monster is that it is immune to magic attacks like many dragons. It is not clear why.

Moreover, many anti-magic weapons suddenly appeared in the Nirn army this time, causing a lot of losses to the magicians who were caught off guard.

The Kolo people are more sensitive to this aspect, and instinctively sense that something is wrong, and the key point may be on "Carlos".

Therefore, regardless of the consideration of stabilizing the front line or stifling the risk, it is necessary to kill or paralyze Tang Zhao as soon as possible. The commander of the other party calculated that Tang Zhao would appear on the frontal battlefield sooner or later, so he sent someone to ambush.

The escape route was gradually blocked by the swarming human soldiers, and Tang Zhao also had a headache looking at the two high-ranking soldiers with weapons.

There was no other way right now, so Tang Zhao threw out a round of half-moon-shaped tail spikes, piercing the shields and plate armor of the surrounding heavy armored soldiers, nailing them to the ground together with the people behind them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tang Zhao pushed aside the pikemen who were gradually approaching, and retreated outside the camp.

Of course, the two warriors specially prepared for him would not just sit back and watch him leave. They stuck to Tang Zhao like maggots attached to the bones, and would attack Tang Zhao from time to time. Relying on their nimbleness and compactness and having a large number of subordinates to cover them, they would attack Tang Zhao with one blow after they succeeded. Leaving, constantly adding wounds to Tang Zhao's body.

Just like many predators hunting large animals, bloodletting with a small knife gradually wears down Tang Zhao's physical strength and state, and the final blow is fatal, which is a safe and difficult way to deal with.

Tang Zhao endured these injuries and kept dealing with the two soldiers. After ten minutes of support, he finally saw what he wanted to see.

In the camp of the Keluo people in the distance, flames shot up into the sky, accompanied by rumbling explosions.

This is the result of those infiltration teams. The cloaks made of Tangzhao's scale powder and other special materials allow them to shield many detection magic perceptions. Tangzhao himself attracted most of the enemy's attention, and finally added With a little luck, it seems that they managed to get inside the enemy's camp.

Of course, low-level fighters and spellcasters cannot cause such a big explosion by themselves. According to Lynn, these fighters carry some "little surprises" with them, which are actually bombs made by magic means. Now it seems that It is indeed amazing.

The explosion meant that the team might have been completely wiped out, but Tang Zhao, who was unable to protect himself, could hardly think too much, so he could only suppress all thinking activities for the time being and devote himself to the battle.

But soon he felt that something was wrong - when Tang Zhao was fighting with the enemy in front of the gate, the reinforcements that were expected to arrive soon did not arrive.

There is no sound of attacking horns, no sound of cavalry charging, and no sound of magic and arrows piercing the sky. This is completely different from what Lynn promised at the beginning.
