Chapter 549: Cunning and cunning

"Follow me to break through!"

Amidst the roar, Zhou Chongshan exerted all his strength, trying to turn the tide with his own strength and lead his soldiers out of the siege.

But facing this huge tide of rats, his strength, no matter how strong he was, was limited. He felt that the rats around him seemed endless, constantly rushing towards him.

At the critical moment, the Speed ​​Dragon Cavalry, which had been struggling with a wave of rats, came back and rushed in, opening a gap for the Great Zhou Cavalry led by Zhou Chongshan.

How could Zhou Chongshan let go of the chance to escape? With a roar, he stabbed another rat slave soldier to death and seized the opportunity to lead his team out of the gap.

The Great Zhou cavalry, who successfully joined up with the Speed ​​Dragon Cavalry on the battlefield, finally got a chance to catch their breath.

After that, they were in poor condition and had no intention of fighting any longer. They simply relied on the speed of the cavalry to gallop away.

Looking at their departing backs, Li Claw's expression became uncertain.

Because he knew in his heart that these two cavalry units would definitely come back to attack.

Although the condition of the Great Zhou cavalry continued to decline when facing the siege of the rat tide, it was actually only temporary exhaustion. As long as they were given a chance to catch their breath and relax for a while, they would recover soon.

Of course, leaving this question aside, Claw was more concerned about where this human cavalry unit came from.

"Come to think of it, is this the Lizardman's trump card?"

For a moment, Li Claw was a little unsure.

During this time, he turned around to look at the main battlefield where the offensive was still being launched.

According to past experience, it would be difficult to make any progress over there in a short period of time. Under this premise, a group of human cavalry from unknown origins appeared on the flank battlefield. He was a little upset with all the questions in his mind.

"Pass the order down, retreat temporarily!"

The sound of the horn to retreat quickly spread, and the tide of rats that received the signal dispersed like a tide.

Looking at the receding tide of rats, Bolevin, who was in the camp, breathed a sigh of relief.

The nature of the rat people is cunning and suspicious. The appearance of the Great Zhou cavalry will inevitably make the other side suspicious. If the other side has doubts in their hearts, they will be cautious in their actions, and this is exactly the first goal that Bolevin wants to achieve.

As for the second purpose...

Previously, following his instructions, the Dragoons had gone forward to lure the enemy many times. His purpose was to lure the opposing Rat Commander into the trap and make him think he had some backup plan.

The purpose of doing this is because his previous intention to delay time was very obvious, and the other party has probably seen through it, so he did this to cover up this move.

Under this premise, if the other party did not see through his trick and foolishly took the bait, then Boleyn would not mind turning the fake into reality and directly let the Great Zhou cavalry charge at the position of the ratman regular army.

The main force of the rat army is the rat tide composed of the lowest level rat slave soldiers.

Under this premise, although the combat effectiveness of each soldier of the ratman regular army is much stronger than that of the slave soldiers, in contrast, their scale is far from comparable to that of the rat tide.

If they fight together with the rat tide, the threat will be quite large. On the other hand, if they are taken out alone, to some extent, they are actually easier to deal with than the rat tide.

Otherwise, after their swift cavalry seized the opportunity, they would not have been able to defeat the opposing ratman regular army so easily and force the ratman army to retreat.

On the other hand, if the other party saw through his intention to lure the enemy and did not take the bait as he expected, they would pretend that their attempt to lure the enemy had failed and that the pressure of the battle was too great and that their trump card was forced to be revealed.

In other words, the moment the Great Zhou cavalry appeared, Bolevin's plan had been largely completed.

Of course, as an important "trump card", they must show combat effectiveness that matches it and cannot be too weak, otherwise the ratmen on the opposite side will not be so easy to fool.

As for this point, Boleyn, who had witnessed the combat effectiveness of the Great Zhou cavalry with his own eyes, had a rough idea of ​​it. The performance of the Great Zhou cavalry undoubtedly met his expectations, and it could even be said that it was better than he expected.

In this way, in the eyes of the rat people, the existence of the Great Zhou cavalry has been equated with the lizard people's trump card.

But everyone knows that their trump card this time is not the Great Zhou cavalry led by Zhou Chongshan, but the Centaur troops that are rushing towards this side!

Under this premise, if everything goes well, the ratmen who already know what the lizardmen's trump card is will naturally not worry about the trump card anymore, so that the centaurs who arrive later can get more opportunities! After all, he is an old lizard who has lived for so many years. The four words "old and cunning" are quite appropriate when used on Bo Levin.

At the same time, the sharp claws that were grasped by Boleyn invisibly were undoubtedly trying to figure out the origin of the Great Zhou cavalry.

"What's going on? Why are there human cavalry mixed with the lizardmen? Where did they come from?"

Looking at the irritable claws, who kept their eyebrows lowered and their eyes lowered throughout, Jikum spoke slowly...

"Chief, the Centaurs suddenly appeared on this battlefield and kept spreading news that the other side of the Lizardmen's border was being invaded by other forces."

Of course, Claws knew this news. It was precisely because they knew this news that they launched the offensive so eagerly, in order to seize this opportunity to destroy the Lizardmen.

"If that human cavalry came from the invading force on the other side, then logically they should be enemies. How did they get mixed up? That human cavalry is obviously helping those stinky lizards!"

At this point, the claw's voice paused.

"Could it be that their initial invasion was all fake?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Hearing Claw's question, Jikum carefully thought about what had happened before and then shook his head.

"It's unlikely. The Lizardmen were indeed affected at the time, and suffered a lot of casualties. It doesn't seem like they were pretending."

"So what's going on now?!"

"Chief, do you think it is possible that the battle over there has ended?"

Hearing this, Li Claw's expression was slightly stunned.

"Were the invaders from the other side killed by those stinky lizards? Were those humans captured by those stinky lizards to serve as combat forces?"

From the very beginning, Claw never considered the possibility that the Lizardmen were destroyed.

After all, the two tribes had been fighting for so many years, and he was well aware of the strength of the lizardmen.

If the Lizardmen could be destroyed so easily, then what have they been doing all these years?

It has to be said that Jikum's thinking and claws were basically the same at this time.

In the battle over there, none of them thought that the Lizardmen would lose.

After confirming this, Claw frowned and became conflicted.

As mentioned before, they launched the attack so eagerly because they knew that the Lizardmen were being attacked from two sides at the moment.

But now the situation seems to have changed, and many of their rat slaves have died, and the food pressure has been reduced in disguise. Is there any need to continue the attack in the short term? Just as the claws were struggling, Jikum's voice sounded again...

"Chief, according to my thinking, the stinky lizards must have suffered some losses at this stage. This may also be an opportunity. Why don't we adjust our status first, and then give it a good test. If it still doesn't work, we will retreat."

It has to be said that Jikum's proposal really touched his heart.

"Okay, let's do as you say! Pass the order down, the whole army should rest!"
