Chapter 554 Transfer Station
Amid the passionate shouts of killing, the cavalry troops of both sides fought again. Zhou Chongshan, who was blood-thirsty, now dual-wielded his weapons again, swinging and stabbing with his weapons again and again, mercilessly taking the enemy's life.
At the same time, the Lizardmen's infantry phalanx was attacked by the Giant Rat Knights, which resulted in the destruction of their originally tight advancing formation.
However, thanks to the protection provided by the scales on their bodies, the combat effectiveness of the Lizardmen infantry was significantly improved in the chaos of battle.
At this moment, this part of the equipped troops directly formed the backbone of the Lizardmen. After the initial panic, they gradually stabilized their position in the chaos.
You know, before Zhou Xu's battle formation was added, the lizardmen fought the rat people in the same way.
Just now their formation was suddenly broken, causing them to panic for a moment. Now, at worst, the situation will become the same as before.
With this mentality, the Lizardman soldiers felt at ease.
The battle continued, and as time passed, it became more and more intense, gradually entering a white-hot stage.
After successfully joining forces with Drogo and his men, the giant rat riders before them, although not vulnerable, were no match for them.
After a fierce battle and after completely killing them, Zhou Chongshan immediately took a look at the position of the ratmen in the distance.
The successive appearances of human cavalry and centaurs obviously made the rat people lose interest in fighting a decisive battle with the Lizardmen here.
In fact, after so many years of fighting, although the two sides often went to war, they really never fought a fight to the death.
After all, none of them was sure that they would win, and even if they could win, it would probably be a miserable victory.
Now the Claws have seen that the situation is gradually becoming unfavorable to them, and the main force has begun to withdraw. As for those who are still on the battlefield...
To put it nicely, it's called cutting off the retreat; to put it bluntly, it's called abandoning pawns. He doesn't care how many people can escape later.
Watching the rats retreating, Zhou Chongshan felt a little unwilling and wanted to chase them, but his reason told him not to.
Given their current state, it would be too risky to catch up.
The most important thing right now is to protect the large army of Lizardmen and ensure that they have enough troops to fight against the ratmen.
At the same time, the upgrade of weapons and equipment for the Lizardmen army was a great improvement for them. After stabilizing their position, they slowly regained the advantage that they had lost.
At this time, the arrival of Zhou Chongshan, Zhuo Ge and others with their troops accelerated this change.
The sharp blade cut the rat man's throat, and the hot blood splashed directly on his face. Zhou Chongshan lowered the hand holding the weapon, and his chest kept rising and falling with his violent breathing.
Just now, the last ratman on the battlefield died under his sword, but the series of fierce battles had almost exhausted him, and the warhorse under him was foaming with fatigue.
"Old Zhou, do you feel that our physical strength seems to be better than before?"
Drogo, who was also severely exhausted, dragged his heavy body, kicked away the corpse of the ratman, and slowly walked to Zhou Chongshan's side.
After working together for a long time, the two of them have already become completely familiar with each other.
Hearing what Zhuo Ge said, Zhou Chongshan nodded and then took a deep breath.
"I think the king knows that we are in a tough battle and has given us a new blessing."
Drogo was not surprised at all by this, but nodded in agreement.
However, Zhou Xu, the person involved, was completely unaware of this.
There is no need to elaborate on the effect of Zhou Xu's talent "Evolutionary Leader".
Simply put, this talent is very powerful, but it also has its drawbacks.
The most annoying thing about this talent is that even Zhou Xu, the owner, often doesn't know what effect this talent is having.
For example, right now...
The improvement in Zhou Chongshan and his companions' physical strength was most likely due to the unlocking and upgrading of the two items, 'Lizardman Comprehensive Enhancement' and 'Lizardman Endurance Enhancement' in 'Dragon Lord'.
But unless this improvement is very huge, under normal circumstances, Zhou Xu, whose daily work, in addition to reviewing documents, is to inspect the work of various departments and ponder the subsequent development of the Great Zhou, how can he clearly feel it? Putting this aside, Zhou Chongshan and Zhuo Ge were able to obtain this blessing, undoubtedly, thanks to Zhou Xu's talent.
Because normally speaking, these two are enhancement items for Lizardmen, and their enhancement effects are completely useless to other races such as humans and Centaurs.
The reason why it works is because of Zhou Xu's talent, which makes this strengthening effect a kind of "evolution" bestowed on himself.
The effect of "Evolutionary Leader" can add the evolutionary effect obtained by Zhou Xu himself to his own people.
Simply put, Zhou Xu acted as a very critical transit station in the middle, allowing the enhancement project that was originally supposed to only work on Lizardmen to work on all of his people.
Of course, how much enhancement they can obtain depends on themselves, and should be related to their own potential and talent.
Some can get more obvious blessings, while others are minimal.
After a great war, the bodies of the ratmen outside the Lizardmen's border camp were piled up into a small hill.
The post-war work will be handled by the soldiers arranged by Bo Levin.
I don't know if it's because the enemy ratmen often spread diseases, so the Lizardmen also have the habit of piling up corpses together and burning them all after the war.
Generally speaking, Zhou Chongshan, Zhuo Ge and others don't need to worry about it.
At the same time, the latest battle situation on the front line had already caused the dragoons to be sent back to the rear as quickly as possible.
According to the latest results of the battle, the ratmen have been temporarily repelled by them, and have no intention of launching another offensive in the short term.
According to Bolevin, there is a high probability that the ratmen have temporarily ceased fighting this time, because judging from the results, the other side has achieved the goal of reducing the slave population and reducing the pressure of food for the winter.
This is undoubtedly good news for Zhou Xu. After experiencing a series of battles, they really need to rest for a while.
At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh that having a flying unit to use for communication would be very efficient.
It would take an estimated week to travel from the southern border to the Lizardmen's homeland, even if one were to travel alone, without having to consider coordinating with other troops and sending out dragoons that were well adapted to the rainforest terrain to take the shortest route.
The pterosaur riders simply ignored the terrain and brought back the news in just three days.
