Chapter 475 You are really smart
At this moment, Zhou Xu’s words contained a hint of helplessness, but this was also a reality that had to be faced.
Although the two armies are fighting, as the coach, he needs to take a long-term view, but in this battlefield right now, there are more forces involved than the 'two armies'.
This has also led to more complex variables on this battlefield.
Based on the limited circumstances, you can roughly understand the situation in front of you, but if you think further, under the influence of so many forces, each force will add more to this battlefield. You must not understand the instability factors.
So the best way right now is to make all the preparations you can and then adapt accordingly.
While Zhou Xu and Li Ce were discussing this, a soldier of Li Ce quickly ran over to report.
"Your Majesty, Diack, the leader of the Centaur clan, wants to see you."
Hearing this, Zhou Xu turned around and looked. At this moment, Diack was not far away. Wait.
The eyes of both parties met. After a simple nod, Zhou Xu said to the soldier...
"Let him come over."
"Yes!"
With permission, Diack quickly came to Zhou Xu.
"Diack, I have met the king!"
While speaking, Diack put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly, which was regarded as a salute.
Unlike the first time he met Zhou Xu and was frightened by Chitose who acted as a cushion, Diack's performance this time was undoubtedly much more comfortable.
"No courtesy."
As he spoke, Zhou Xu rode over and patted Diack on the shoulder.
"I'm sorry about your matter."
In response, Diack just shook his head. After this period of time, he had already figured this out, or Said they already understood.
"As long as the Lizard Man is alive, this will happen sooner or later. Now it's just earlier."
Diak waved his hand, indicating that he was not here to dwell on this issue.
"I came here to ask you what your next plans are, and at the same time, do the things that the king promised me before still count?"
Diack's meaning is obvious. I just want to know if this battle should continue.
After all, they are all concentrated at the edge of the world now. They can wait for an energy channel and then all transfer to the opposite world to survive.
Zhou Xu, who heard this meaning, shook his head.
"The two fragments of the world are getting closer and closer, and they will be spliced together. It's just a matter of time. If the lizard people are not eliminated in one day, their threat will not disappear."
Listen to Zhou Diack nodded at Zhou Xu's words. For now, he fully agreed with Zhou Xu's idea.
After that, Zhou Xu told Diack the results of his discussion and analysis with Li Ce.
“So what does Chief Diak think? Are you willing to end like this?”
"I'm not willing to give in!"
Diak's answer was extremely straightforward.
Are you kidding? Since the war broke out, they had sacrificed so many clan members, including the old clan leader. How could he be willing to do so? !
At this point, they, Great Zhou, and the Centaur clan have reached a new consensus.
And Zhou Xu also took advantage of the situation to change the topic to the next question.
"As for my previous promise, the leader of the Diak clan can rest assured. Now that I have said it, I will never go back on it. I have already marked out the clan land left for you. If necessary, when the energy channel is opened next time , you can let some of the tribe go there first.”
“Thank you.” Zhou Xu’s promise again made Diak relieved.
Although Zhou Xu had always given him a good feeling in previous contacts, Diack could not guarantee that the other party would not regret it after the situation changed.
Now it seems that he is narrow-minded.
After the camp was re-established, Zhou Xu summoned a group of generals on the front line to discuss the next tactical arrangements.
“If possible, of course I hope to let the opponent take the initiative to attack. Without the pterosaur rider as a reconnaissance unit, we can make more deployments on the plains to establish some home field advantage.”
“Judging from the previous actions of the lizard men, according to my guess, the reinforcements from the opposite side are most likely already on their way, and may even be almost there. By moving the battlefield to the plains, they can be deployed very quickly. To a large extent, we can avoid our environmental disadvantages.”
“But on the other hand, after losing the pterosaur rider, the lizard people should also become more cautious, fearing that the other party will do the same as us. The idea is to move the battlefield to the rainforest for defensive warfare, which is very disadvantageous for us.”
Although taking into account the rainforest environment, they have begun to train mountain soldiers in large quantities. But this does not mean that the next battle will be easy for them.
The more you receive training in mountain warfare, the more you will understand the advantages of being a defender when fighting in such a complex environment.
In addition, more importantly, once the battlefield moves to the interior of the rain forest, centaurs and elf knights can basically only stay on the outside to provide support, which puts more pressure on them.
When I thought of this, all the generals present frowned.
Looking at everyone's appearance, Wang Pengfei, who was Zhou Xu's personal attendant, was speechless.
The instinctive impulse in his bones made him want to say something, but when he thought that this was not online, he couldn't help but feel scared.
During this period, Zhou Xu noticed him. Seeing Wang Pengfei's expression of not holding in his fart, he said casually.
“If you have an idea, just say it.”
With Zhou Xu’s permission, Wang Pengfei suddenly became more confident, and then he had the courage to speak out his idea.
"Can't we just set a fire over there?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little subtle.
Wang Pengfei, who was observing everyone's reactions throughout the whole process, could keenly see that these people were definitely not shocked by his genius idea, because apart from the angry faces of Silk and Diack, Li Ce's faces , were full of speechlessness, and Zhou Xu looked at him with a kind of 'care' in his eyes.
As if to say, ‘You are really smart. '
In this state, Li Ce couldn't help but speak out...
"The climate here is humid, especially in areas close to the rainforest. Setting fire is difficult to implement."
“You can use oil.”
Wang Pengfei couldn't help but quarreled. Li Ce was about to say something, but was interrupted by Zhou Xu raising his hand.
Then Zhou Xu's voice sounded slowly...
"It doesn't mean that water will become flammable if it is stained with a little oil. It also depends on the concentration and Proportionally, the oil we have now is not the high-concentration gasoline in the original world. Even if I wrap an arrow with oil-soaked linen cloth and shoot it towards the rainforest, the flames that are lit will probably be blown by the stronger wind. It can be extinguished by blowing, but it's not as simple as you think."
At this point, Zhou Xu couldn't help but glance at Wang Pengfei again.
At this moment, Wang Pengfei's entire face was almost turning purple.
Not only because he was refuted by Zhou Xu, but also because he was refuted by a primitive man.
But Zhou Xu didn’t think it was a big deal. Modern people who have a lot of convenient props always take some things for granted and oversimplify them. This is also their common problem.
“Also aside from this problem, the rainforest is also an important natural resource. If it is burned to the ground, it will take who knows how many years to recover. Even if we really win the battle, we will occupy a scorched earth. How can we make up for it? The losses caused by our war? "
The update is sent, and thanks to the book friend "Yiyun Shisan" for the reward!
