Chapter 37 The Crisis Emerges
Chapter 37 The Crisis Emerges
After Wilkin arrived, Ai Ruo stopped his little hands and wanted to leave the room.
Because she knew that the adults were going to talk about big things next, and she was not suitable to listen to them.
"Bang" as the door was closed, Thanos sat up straight and looked at Wilkin.
Looking at the other person's expression, he knew that things might go wrong without even asking.
"what happened?"
Still lowering his head, Wilkin said in a depressed mood, "My lord, a woman appeared out of nowhere. Her mouth is too powerful, and she also knows the law very well. We have nowhere to go."
"Oh?"
Hearing that one of his subordinates was hit by a woman, Thanos showed a curious look in his eyes.
What kind of woman could make Wilkin so disappointed.
"Didn't I say that if you can't be soft, you can be tough. You can't even beat a woman?"
Wilkin shook his head immediately, and said anxiously: "No, my lord, we had already returned to the town at that time, and we were surrounded by civilians. If we do it forcefully, I'm afraid it will cause bad effects."
Hearing this, Thanos understood.
Recently, people in Zixi Town have panicked due to the siege of the indigenous people, and many people want to leave.
If at this juncture, there is another incident of officials taking human lives carelessly, it is estimated that there will be a large-scale loss of civilians.
It was precisely because of this scruple that Wilkin was in such a difficult situation.
"What's that woman's name? What's her history?"
When Wilkin heard the question, a complicated look flashed across his face.
After a while, he said: "Well, her name is Malika, she is very beautiful, she seems to be the fiancée of the owner of the cemetery."
Thanos nodded and closed his eyes again.
"Well, I'll meet her tomorrow."
If the subordinates are not capable, they can only go out on their own.
The plan of the ziming tower cannot be delayed, it is related to his pocketbook, and also the key to whether he can become a wizard.
Throughout the more than 1-year history of the ancient and modern wizarding world, there are not many wizard apprentices who can become official wizards without relying on resources.
After all, the profession of a wizard is not simply a matter of high aptitude and good potential.
It also requires an inexhaustible store of knowledge, and an understanding of the truth of the world.
And none of this requires a lot of research, research, research.
Only by continuous research can you know why witchcraft is formed in this way, what are its weaknesses, how to optimize it, and so on.
When Wilkin heard that the lord was going to go out in person, he immediately lowered his head, showing a face of shame.
He didn't expect that this mission, which was originally very simple, would be messed up by himself.
I feel a little ashamed of the adults.
Seeing that it was all right, Thanos wanted to wave his hand to make the opponent retreat, but at this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and then a soldier with blood on his face stumbled away with the support of two soldiers. came in.
Seeing this situation, Thanos suddenly felt uneasy.
"What happened?"
The blood-stained soldier said weakly, "Master Mayor... cough cough... Commander Sumante was besieged by gray trolls on the Zixi Mine and asked for reinforcements."
Hearing this, Thanos immediately stood up.
"Wilkin! Cancel all operations, and immediately take everyone, no, 100 people go to the south of the city to stand by!"
Originally I wanted Wilkin to take all the troops to the south of the city, but I was worried about fraud, so I just asked the other party to take 100 people.
Never underestimate the IQ of indigenous people.
You must know that Fengling City and the other four cities have joined forces to attack the Proworld for 37 years, but it has only become such a difficult situation.
It can be seen that the aborigines are not too weak in terms of high-end combat power or wisdom.
After hearing the order, Wilkin immediately stood up straight.
"Yes, my lord!"
After finishing speaking, he turned around and trotted away without looking back.
After Wilkin left, Thanos turned his head to look at the blood-stained soldier, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Move him a chair, and then explain the details to me."
The blood-stained soldier nodded weakly, sat down on the chair, and said weakly: "My lord, when the Chief Soldier took us to the Zixi Mine yesterday morning, everything was normal.
Although many underground people came and went, under the leadership of the general soldier and the skeleton soldiers, every underground person died when they came.
But just tonight, many gray trolls suddenly appeared from the west, at least a hundred or more.
Under the siege of gray trolls and underground people, our skeleton soldiers lost a lot, many brothers died, and even the chief soldier was injured..."
After slowly listening to the other party's words, Thanos fell silent.
Sure enough, it is not so simple to know that the underground people of Zixi Mine appeared.
Now as soon as his convoy set off, gray trolls appeared.
But is the enemy going to surround the point to fight for aid, or is it to divert the tiger away from the mountain?
To encircle and attack the aid is to encircle the Zixi Mine and then attack the support troops.
To transfer the tiger away from the mountain is to transfer the troops in one's own city and then attack the city.
It's okay if it's around the point to fight for aid, but if you turn the tiger away from the mountain, then you are in danger.
Zixi Town has a total of troops, of them are at the Zixi Mine, were taken away by Chidi and Thackeray, and escorted the convoy to Mek City.
In other words, I can still use about 190 troops.
No, at least 100 people should be left to guard Zixi City. If this is the enemy's trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain, then he will be in danger.
Therefore, only ninety soldiers can be sent to support it.
As far as the enemy is known, there are at least 100 gray trolls and an unknown number of underground people.
Although the frontal combat power of the underground people is almost negligible, but he sent ninety soldiers to support him.
If possible, it is best to send all 190 soldiers, this is the safest.
But the risk is too great.
and many more.
What if the enemy knows the number of his troops?
After all, the aborigines have been dealing with Zixi Town for so long, and they might know that Zixi Town has convoys departing every month to Mek City.
Knowing that the convoy to Mek City will leave in the near future, they sent those cunning underground people to harass the Zixi Mine first.
In order to ensure the safety of the Zixi Mine, I may send troops out.
So after his convoy full of Zixi Mine set off, he immediately dispatched gray trolls to besiege the troops guarding Zixi Mine.
Faced with this situation, no matter whether you save yourself or not, you are in a dilemma.
Save, then Zixi Town is in danger.
If you don't save them, Sumante and fifty soldiers will die.
However, the enemy certainly didn't expect that he would produce skeleton soldiers in a short period of time, so the estimation of his own strength should be insufficient.
It seems that I can fight a battle to lure the enemy into depth.
But all of this is based on the premise that the enemy is trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain.
And he still has a question.
Did Peart play any role in this?
