Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Bai Tu took advantage of the elven druid's shapeshifting spell. He took advantage of the battle between the two large forces at the border and led a small force deep into the ratman territory, directly raiding the front-line stronghold of the ratman!

During this period, Sion, who maintained the black panther transformation, relied on his keen senses to clear the way in front and solved them before the ratman's spies found them.

Bai Tu said that he had made an indispensable contribution, which was not wrong at all.

The ratman was busy fighting with the lizardmen at the time, and the focus of the front line was there.

The ratman patrol team arranged in the rear found a black panther in the wild. Would they send a signal to summon the rat tide to come for support?

Of course not.

If the war on the front line was affected, you would have a hard time dying.

This gave Sion the opportunity to perform.

The small-scale ratmen were basically vulnerable in front of him. After easily defeating several ratmen teams along the way, he brought Bai Tu and his team to the entrance of the ratmen's underground nest without any danger, which facilitated this plan!

When the entangled vines grew in the ratmen's underground nest, it would be too late for the ratmen hiding inside to take action.

The limited space below was quickly filled with entangled vines, and a large number of ratmen inside had nowhere to hide. In the end, they all became nutrients that promoted the growth of entangled vines, making the growth rate of entangled vines faster.

In this process, the ratmen's underground nest collapsed, and the ratmen who hid inside and didn't have time to come out were naturally dead or injured.

During this period, after the front-line rat tide collapsed, the lizardmen troops led by Soros also quickly advanced and soon joined Bai Tu and his team.

At this moment, looking at the large area of ​​collapsed land in front of him, Soros's expression was not much surprised.

As early as when he destroyed the Claw Clan, he had seen this kind of battle many times.

It's just that they used shield beasts to destroy the underground nests of the ratmen at that time, but now it has become a magic method of the wood elf wizards.

With the continuous development of the internal, in the long-term war with the ratmen, the lizardmen gradually realized that the mobility efficiency of the shield beasts was too low.

If they bring shield beasts, their offensive rhythm will be greatly restricted.

After all, in the old civilization period, the shield beasts themselves were not their military units, but resource units.

It's just that they lacked effective means to destroy the underground nests of the ratmen before, so they had no choice but to bring them all the time, and now they undoubtedly have a better choice.

"Tash, you take the speed dragon cavalry and the green lizard short spear troops to clean up."

After receiving the order, Tash said nothing and led the team directly.

Facing the area where the terrain became obviously uneven and complex and difficult to walk after the collapse, the speed dragon cavalry led by Tash was like walking on flat ground, showing the efficient mobility in complex environments that conventional cavalry did not have at all.

At the same time, the green lizard short spearmen also showed their flexibility, rushing in quickly and starting to finish off the ratmen inside.

During this period, the human troops led by Bai Tu also cooperated with the action.

Assisted the lizardmen troops to carry out blockade patrols on the periphery and hunted down those who tried to escape.

The subsequent entire operation went quite smoothly.

Then Soros and Bai Tu did not rush to launch the follow-up advancement.

Instead, they turned around and found a suitable area nearby and began to build a front-line camp.

This time, they must need logistical support.

For this reason, they also need a reliable front-line camp for them to stockpile supplies.

Therefore, taking down the border stronghold of the Corrupted Clan is a crucial step for the southern border troops on the expedition!

Then they rested for about ten days and completed the construction of the front-line camp. The large army then launched the follow-up advancement.

At the same time, a major event was happening on Zhou Xu's side, that is, Zhou Xu, as the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, will officially return to the capital Black Moon City!

Previously, due to traffic problems and development needs, he had to stay in the palace of Xianyang City for a long time to handle government affairs.

But in fact, Xianyang City has never been the capital of his Great Zhou, and he has never said so. Black Moon City is his base camp.

After the opening of the waterway, the geographical advantages of Black Moon City have been further highlighted. From then on, Zhou Xu has begun to prepare to return to his capital.

However, there are no buildings such as palaces in Black Moon City.

Zhou Xu used to think that it was unnecessary. It would be more practical to use the labor force on serious construction projects.

But now his mind has changed. He found that the palace is still useful.

Not only does it provide himself with a complete environment where he can handle government affairs and life with peace of mind, but it also affects the image and face of the country.

If their Great Zhou continues to develop, it will inevitably have intersections with other forces in the future.

It is impossible to just ignore everything and fight when encountering individual forces, right?

He is not a warmongerer.

Take the dwarves as an example. It is obvious that they can try to establish diplomatic relations with each other.

At that time, they will inevitably have to receive the other party's delegation.

Considering this, as the supreme ruler of the Great Zhou, if he lives in a small house and receives the delegation in his house, is that decent?

Before they met, they had already lost in terms of momentum.

For this reason, as early as after the waterway was opened, Black Moon City had already started to build the palace, and it was officially completed before the beginning of spring this year.

After confirming the news, Zhou Xu made simple arrangements for the affairs in Xianyang City and officially boarded the big ship back to Black Moon City.

In their Great Zhou, the big ships have been built and put into use for water transportation for a long time, but this is the first time for Zhou Xu to ride on it.

Looking at the huge sailing ship in front of him, it feels very fresh.

Compared with the bumps on the carriage, the feeling of riding on the big ship and riding the wind and waves is quite good.

At this moment, Zhou Xu is also full of freshness. The whole person stands directly on the bow deck, looking at the surrounding green mountains and the sparkling lake, blowing the warm spring breeze, looking quite comfortable.

When he was tired of standing, he sat on the deck chair and basked in the sun for a while. It was really a rare feeling of vacation.

During this period, as his important right-hand men in daily government affairs, Huo Qubing and Li Bowen naturally followed him to Black Moon City.

In addition, there were also his personal guards, three concubines in the harem and some maids serving them on the ship.

This was the first time for each of them to take a boat.

This also made the ship really lively.
