Chapter 38 Lure the snake out of its hole
In this race war, will humans in the wizarding world cooperate with the indigenous people in the general world?
I promise I will definitely do it.
Nothing is impossible in this world.
As long as the benefits are sufficient, don't be surprised even if someone sells his soul to the devil.
What's more, for the natives of the common world, this war is a life and death war, but for the humans in the wizarding world, it is just a war of conquest and plunder.
The reason why Thanos doubts Peart is naturally because the death of the previous mayor was full of too many doubts.
It's completely like someone sold the blueprint of Zixi Town to the indigenous people, and then the indigenous people launched a precise targeted sneak attack.
With this suspicion in mind, it would not be surprising to speculate whether someone had betrayed the information about Zixi Town to the indigenous people in this crisis.
Put yourself in someone else's shoes.
If you are an indigenous person, knowing the strength of the troops in Zixi Town and sending a convoy to Meike City every month.
Then they will definitely choose to send troops to harass the Zixi Mine when Zixi Town is about to send out the convoy.
In order to stabilize the income, the mayor of Zixi Town will send about a hundred soldiers to the Zixi Mine to stabilize the output.
This leaves Zixi Town with only 200 troops.
As long as the convoy from Zixi Town sets off, about a hundred soldiers will be sent to escort the convoy.
At this time, Zixi Town was already at its weakest military strength.
But to be cautious, he would definitely not directly send troops to attack Zixi Town.
Although Zixi Town is just a small town, the city wall is not fake.
It would take at least four times more troops to besiege Zixi Town, and it would not be possible to capture it in a short time.
But four times the force is four hundred. The dispatch of this number of troops will definitely alarm the soldiers in Zixi Town. When the people of the whole town join together, the outcome will be unknown.
Instead of doing this thankless task, it would be better to besiege the one hundred soldiers at the Zixi Mine. In this way, whether Zixi Town rescues them or not, the initiative is in their own hands.
If you save it, you can take the opportunity to capture Zixi Town.
If we don't save him, we can wipe out the effective strength of a hundred enemies.
As various thoughts flashed through his mind, the enemy's plan slowly became clear.
But the enemy must not know now that they have created ninety skeleton soldiers, so they have underestimated their own strength.
But even if it is insufficient, ninety skeleton soldiers are still too few to determine the outcome of the war.
And if you look at it from your own point of view, it is definitely best not to save him now.
After all, if we don't save him, we will only lose Sumant and fifty soldiers.
If we try to save him, we will probably lose Zixi Town.
It’s clear at a glance which one is more important.
But not saving it also means that you have lost the opportunity for rapid development.
If the indigenous people really send a large number of troops to attack the city next time, what will they do to defend the city?
So not saving is equivalent to slow death.
And more importantly, Peart is secretly watching.
But now is not the time to cause trouble for the other party.
Because he had sent people to investigate and found out that the Hazayan family behind Peart was a family with formal wizards in charge, and it was not comparable to a family like Walkins who took the civil service route.
In fact, he had also doubted in his heart why the other party was so obsessed with Zi Xizhen.
If you really want to plot Zixi Town, why not just send people from the Hazayang family to guard it instead of letting him be an outsider to guard it.
But because there was too little information, he did not continue to infer.
Even the other party's conspiracy, he could only passively endure.
Because being weak is the original sin.
"Ahem..."
While he was still thinking, the soldier whose face was covered in blood suddenly coughed hard.
He even spit out a few mouthfuls of blood on the ground, which made him frown immediately.
"You take him down to recover first."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out the door.
He already had a countermeasure in mind.
Ten minutes later, he arrived at the camp in the south of the city.
At this time, in the camp south of the city, a hundred soldiers were busy making a mess.
"Where is my spear? Where has it gone?"
"Where's my armor? Why is it missing?"
"Wait, Captain, where are you?"
"Don't take things randomly, this is my shield."
Some people are wearing armor, some are looking for weapons, some are looking for their squad leaders, etc.
Seeing this scene, Thanos immediately frowned.
The human soldiers are still too loose, and most of them are new recruits. It is estimated that they will not be able to form much combat effectiveness for a while.
At this time, Wilkin also noticed Thanos' arrival and ran over quickly.
"Sir, everyone was sleeping just now. I just woke up. Please wait a little longer."
Thanos shook his head and said, "I have a new plan."
…
at the same time.
Three kilometers away from the north of Zixi Town.
There are more than a hundred gray trolls lurking in a low-lying area of the grassland, watching Zixi Town with eager eyes.
The leader among them was the gray troll leader who failed to attack Zixi Town more than ten days ago.
"Damn humans, sooner or later we will take back our homeland and kill you all."
After saying that, he looked at Zi Xizhen with hatred in his eyes.
You must know that this place was originally their home.
But after humans appeared, they killed all his wife and children, and almost killed him.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this kind of hatred is irreconcilable.
Next to him, there was a gray troll who was only about 1.8 meters tall and wearing a black robe.
But if you look at the staff in the opponent's hand, you can see that it is a gray troll shaman.
When the gray troll shaman heard what the other party said, he just said calmly: "Don't worry, this will happen sooner or later. Nature will help us."
The gray troll leader nodded, with a look of disdain in his eyes.
"These humans really don't care about life and death. They actually want to cooperate with us. After I capture this town, I will definitely kill all the humans!"
After saying that, he took off the iron spear from his waist.
This spear is countless times stronger than the wooden stick he used before.
He got it from trading with humans.
Today, he will use human weapons to massacre those humans and let them know what cruelty means.
The gray troll shaman was just about to say a few words of encouragement when he suddenly saw a black figure running towards him in the distance.
This made him immediately raise his staff with a wary expression, and the elemental power in his body also secretly flowed.
However, after discovering that it was a familiar figure, he lowered his guard.
Soon, the black shadow came in front of everyone.
"Chief...chief...huhu, those human troops have left the city."
When the leader of the gray troll heard this, he immediately asked excitedly: "Are you sure you saw it?!"
"Chief, Huhu... I can see clearly that humans have indeed left the city, and there are quite a lot of them."
Upon hearing this, the gray troll leader suddenly burst into cruel laughter.
"Haha, kids, it's time for revenge!"
"Revenge! Revenge!"
