Chapter 822: Connected in all directions

In the Qinzheng Palace, looking at the latest report sent by the exploration team in his hand, Zhou Xu blinked his eyes twice, and then he felt like he couldn't laugh or cry.

The exploration of this large lake really gave him a big surprise.

Continuing to the east, it is connected to the factory area on the Lizardman continent.

That place was originally the territory of the Centaur clan. Later, because of the suitable environment and its proximity to water sources, Zhou Xu used it as a factory area for construction and development.

Its positioning is similar to that of Huangsha City in the New World and Salt Lake City in the Old World. It is a gathering area for various factories and can be regarded as the production center of that area.

According to the report of the exploration team during the period, after starting from the large lake outside the basin forest, heading east and downstream, it only takes less than two hours to cross the river and arrive at A freshwater lake located on the other side of the mountain.

You know, it used to take almost a month and a half to reach the lizard people from Huangsha City, even if only one person was sent and a hot air balloon was used.

Now, take the waterway and get on the boat from Green Forest City. It only takes less than two hours after sailing. We are here! !

If he had known there was such a shortcut, he should have built a big ship and opened a waterway earlier!

However, this kind of thought that is similar to an afterthought can only be said casually.

Who can know what will happen before something like this actually happens?

Judging from the current situation, the location of Black Moon City is great. A large lake connects the southeast and northwest, and can be developed as a central city.

In fact, before occupying the New World, Black Moon City had always been Zhou Xu's base camp.

It’s just that the plates here in the New World are too big, coupled with the busy schedule and the inconvenience of traveling back and forth between the two places, so Zhou Xu can only stay here for a long time.

But now it's better. Once the waterway is opened, Black Moon City is located in the center and connected in all directions. It suddenly surpasses Xianyang City in terms of convenience and development prospects.

Of course, at this stage, Xianyang City still has an advantage.

At least the facilities here are complete, like the palace and so on, they are all ready-made, and there is no need to invest money in construction. This was the main reason why Zhou Xu chose to stay in Xianyang City for a long time to handle government affairs. It saves trouble.

However, from a long-term perspective, Black Moon City is undoubtedly a better choice after the waterway is opened.

This made Zhou Xu determined to move back to Black Moon City!

The specific implementation will definitely not be that fast, but now that the decision has been made, the preparations should be started slowly.

Not two days later, the exploration team responsible for mountain exploration also sent news. They climbed over the mountains and ridges, and finally arrived at a cliff with a rapid river underneath.

Based on the constantly updated map, it is basically certain that the big river is the river leading to the lizard people, and it is the one the Pioneer took before.

During the busy period, as the temperature gradually rose, winter turned to spring, and on the southern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the rat army, which had been fighting with their border garrison all winter, finally showed a tendency to retreat. .

Not only because of a winter's consumption, the food problem within their Rotten Clan has been solved, but also because of these continuous battles, the Ratman Commander on the opposite side realized that the opposite side was indeed a tough nut.

This gave him the idea of ​​temporarily retreating and regrouping.

“These stinky rats come and leave whenever they want?”

Of course Soros cannot let them go so easily.

At the beginning, he only had a thousand garrison troops in hand, and he suffered a small loss due to the crazy rat tide offensive on the opposite side. But now that fifteen hundred reinforcements have arrived, he has doubled the number of troops, which is enough to defeat the enemy. He saw the opportunity and launched a counterattack.

Now that he saw that the Rat Man was about to retreat, Soros immediately struck hard.

After fighting a defensive battle for almost a whole winter, the lizardmen soldiers in the fortress were all simmering with anger. Now they attacked with ferocious force. The spear formation advanced forward, and the dragon cavalry provided cover on both sides, giving a severe blow to the retreating rat tide.

Although they failed to capture the southern fortress in one winter, they still fought against the enemy. Now facing the fierce counterattack of the lizardmen, how could the ratman commander on the opposite side be willing to take it? This loss?

Immediately command the rat tide to fight back, vowing to give the group of stinky lizards on the opposite side some color!

However, what he didn't know was that in this wave, the Lizardmen had not yet finished sending out troops.

On the periphery of the battlefield, a large number of green lizard short spear soldiers appeared on the battlefield.

The green lizard short spear soldiers will not go deep into the battlefield, and their activities are mainly on the periphery. They adopt guerrilla tactics. When the enemy advances, we retreat, and when the enemy retreats, we pursue them. They will not fight head-on with the rat men at all. .

Early when they wiped out the Claw Clan, the green lizard spearmen had already used this set of tactics very well. Now with the blessing of the full-level unit project, their comprehensive physical fitness The green lizard short spearmen, who had become stronger than before, undoubtedly demonstrated this tactic better.

During this period, the rat men were also cornered and went directly to the main force, letting the giant rat knights blend in with the rat tide to approach the green lizard short spear soldiers, trying to take advantage of their unpreparedness to hit the opponent hard.

As everyone knows, this tactic has been used by the Claw Clan a long time ago, and the Lizard People know this method very well.

On the green lizard short spear soldiers' side, as soon as they saw the rat tide approaching, they left immediately.

The movement speed of the rat tide cannot be compared with the green lizard spear soldiers. If this situation continues, the rat tide will not be able to catch up at all, and will soon be thrown away by the green lizard spear soldiers.

The Ratman Commander hiding in the dark saw this scene, and his face became ugly for a while.

“Send a signal to let the giant rat knights ignore the rat tide and pursue directly!”

The signal was sent, and the giant rat knights who received the order rushed out of the rat tide and broke out. At such speed, they were chasing the green lizard spearmen.

The green lizard short spear soldiers had long been prepared for this move, and now that they saw it, they were not surprised at all. They immediately recited the mantra and activated the 'Sprint'.

As soon as the 'Sprint' was activated, with the blessing of the power of the mantra, the green lizard short spear soldiers suddenly felt wind at their feet, and their two short legs moved very fast, keeping a safe distance from the giant rat knight.

Of course, they are still infantry after all, two-legged infantry. It is unrealistic to escape the pursuit of enemy cavalry by themselves.

This is obviously not the purpose of the green lizard spearmen's "Sprint". They just use "Speed" to gain time.

“Kill!!!”

Amidst the roar, the speed dragon cavalry headed by Tash came over as quickly as possible to support them, and directly intercepted and killed the chasing giant rat knights from the side.

Without the cover of the rat tide, the Giant Rat Knight's strength declined significantly. He was attacked from the flank by the Velociraptor Cavalry, and the entire charge formation was scattered on the spot.

When the retreating green lizard spearmen saw this, they immediately stopped and turned around to strike. Their movements were neat and unambiguous.

Invisibly, the entire rhythm of the game has fallen into the hands of the lizard man.

The Ratman Commander who was commanding the large Ratman army on the opposite side felt that he was being restricted everywhere at the moment, and the more he fought, the more uncomfortable he became.

Although the current situation made him angry, his remaining sense made him clearly realize that if they continued to fight in this situation, they would definitely suffer.

At the moment when this thought flashed across his mind, the rat-man commander made a prompt decision, leaving part of the rat tide to break off, and then issued an order for a full retreat!
