Throne of Vientiane Civilization

The normal natural lifespan of the elves is only about 1,600 years old, but Elder Kelan has already reached this age.

According to human beings, Elder Kelan rounded it up to be a centenarian, and every extra year of life was setting a new record.

At this age, and with dementia, even the patriarch, Slavin, would not dare to torment him.

"Patriarch Slavin, I have a subordinate who is responsible for leading troops in battle. It is related to the next battle. Why don't we let him come in and discuss together?"

Hearing this, Slavin didn't think much, and nodded in agreement.

Only Zhou Xu and Drogo were allowed in, mainly because they were not completely sure of their purpose.

Now that this issue has been clarified and an alliance has been reached, if they want to discuss the next battle, Slavin naturally doesn't mind letting the other party's generals come in to discuss together.

"Silk, you come here too."

Li Ce came quickly, and Slavin called Silk over to discuss together.

Obviously, on the side of the grassland elves, Silk is definitely not a simple patrol officer.

On the way here, Li Ce, who had roughly understood the situation, didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out the animal skin map that he carried with him, and spread it on the table.

"We discovered that the location of the energy channel is here."

Compared with Zhou Xu who occasionally came to the grassland, Li Ce is undoubtedly much more familiar with this grassland.

"And our current position is here."

Simply pointing out two points on the map directly made Slevin and Silk frowned.

From the current point of view, on this grassland, Drogo and the others have no fixed place to live, the hyenas have also been defeated, and they are nowhere to be found. Zhou Xu and his grassland village are located on the outskirts of the grassland.

After going back and forth like this, the closest to the lizard people turned out to be their elves.

This situation really made it impossible for them to stay out of it.

"Leave the work of collecting intelligence to us."

Faced with this situation, Slavin not only did not shirk, but even took the initiative to take the task on themselves.

You must know that in this situation, once the camp of the grassland elves is exposed, it will definitely become the primary target of the lizardmen.

It doesn't take much brains to figure out this problem, Zhou Xu doesn't believe that Slavin will not think of it.

Under this premise, the other party still made such a decision, which made him change his mind a little bit.

[As far as the current situation is concerned, although this Slavin is a good teacher and a little arrogant in his bones, he can really do things when he has something to do. He is not the kind of guy who just talks but can't do anything. 】

With Slavin taking the initiative to take over the matter, Zhou Xu is of course not interested in arguing with the other party.

As for Drogo and the others...

At this moment, they are still covered with bruises. For them, the most important thing is to heal their injuries quickly and restore their strength.

In this way, the most suitable person to do this right now is really the prairie elf.

After simply confirming the arrangement of the intelligence work, they roughly confirmed the thinking of the three parties. As for the detailed arrangement in the future, it is natural to wait until the intelligence comes back.

Without specific information to support it, no matter how many plans you fantasize here, it is useless.

"Patriarch Slavin, there is still some deployment to be done in my village, so I won't stay here any longer."

Having said that, Zhou Xu, who seemed to have thought of something again, paused.

"Oh, by the way, I will leave a subordinate here. If there is anything, you can let him pass the message."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Xu didn't intend to stay here any longer.

But before leaving, he simply reached a deal with Silk and took away the other's two horses.

Now that they have become allies, Silk is suspected to be the general of the grassland elves. Considering the follow-up cooperation, Zhou Xu naturally does not want to cause any unpleasantness with the other party.

Not to mention this two-for-two business, it is impossible to justify a loss.

After leaving the elf camp, Zhou Xu walked for a while, and soon saw Chitose who was lying on the grass and taking a nap, with one of their cavalry guarding beside him.

As early as when he was determined to come here, while Zhou Xu sent someone back to convey the order, he also asked the other party to bring Chitose here directly.

In case of any unexpected situation, let Li Ce meet Chitose, and then rush in directly.

"This is Chitose?!"

Drogo, who lived in Grassland Village for a while last winter, naturally met Chitose.

But he didn't expect that in less than a year, the changes in Chitose's body would be so great!

Especially this head, it grows a little too fast.

No matter from which angle you look at it now, Chitose is already a beast.

"Let's go, go back to the village!"

Zhou Xu gave an affirmative answer to Drogo's question, and then gave the order to return to the village.

As for Drogo and the others, they had already tacitly followed them back to Grassland Village without him even asking.

After all, they have nowhere to go now.

"Call the doctor over, treat Drogo's wounds, and let the kitchen start cooking!"

The horse had just ridden outside the village when Zhou Xu had already given orders loudly.

Drogo's stomach was already howling all the way, and he couldn't help but hear it.

During the period, Drogo and the others were not pretentious, and it could even be said that they entered the village familiarly, and it felt like they had returned home.

Seeing that they were not unfamiliar at all, Zhou Xu didn't care about them, and quickly called Ye Jinghong to make his own arrangements.

"This is going to be a tough battle. The 30 regular soldiers in Grassland Village and the militiamen living here will definitely not be enough."

"Pass my order to directly transfer the ten rattan armored soldiers stationed in Heiyue Village. As for Tieshan Village, that side is also in the border area. The troops cannot be easily transferred. Let Zhou Zhongshan come to join the battle!"

"In addition, issue a conscription order and start a new round of conscription!"

A series of orders were quickly issued, needless to say about the deployment of troops. As for the conscription work, Zhou Xu actually did not intend to let the recruits go directly to the battlefield.

Once a war starts, soldiers who have not received formal training will not know how to cooperate, and they will not be able to keep up with the actions of the regular army, and there is a high probability that they will be delayed.

Rather than dragging them onto the battlefield to cause them trouble, it would be better not to.

Under this premise, the reason why Zhou Xu wanted to conscript was that he planned to use it as a reserve, so he had to train first.

It would be great if the battle could be ended in a short period of time, but if it dragged on to a long battle, he would be more confident with the reserves behind him.

Instead of finishing the fight in one wave, the regular army has been wiped out, and the militia can only be driven to the battlefield.

Generally speaking, unless the opponent is also severely injured, otherwise there is basically no way to fight.

In the final analysis, the outcome of a battle still depends on the strength of the regular armies of both sides!
