Chapter 116 Habits
Three days have passed since the previous meeting. Now Ye Junwen and his troops have arrived in the territory of the Lizardman Kanzila Empire. At the beginning, some soldiers also had questions about this order. The main city was beaten, so of course they should have rushed back as soon as possible. However, at this time the role of the prince was reflected. No matter what the Tsai was like before, he now represents the identity of the royal family, so if he is there, the soldiers will certainly abide by the order in the end.
At this time, Ye Junwen and his friends had just captured a village of Lizard Man, and today they were preparing to camp near this village. This is no longer the village of Lizard Man that Ye Junwen and his friends captured. Out of curiosity, Ye Junwen also slightly studied this kind of non-human race that he had first seen in another world.
The lizard man, as the name suggests, is a human-shaped lizard. Ye Junwen was surprised when he saw it for the first time. The other party really looked like a lizard. From Ye Junwen's perspective, this creature is indeed very strange. He also asked a little about the people in the army who know this knowledge. It is said that these lizard man is a descendant of the dragon man.
The more troublesome part of the lizard people is that their combat effectiveness is relatively strong. Their physical constitution is much better than that of humans, and there is no concept of farming here. All lizard people villages survive by hunting. Although they are omnivorous and eat fruits, they mainly prey. This leads to the fact that even ordinary civilians in each village have great combat effectiveness, basically in the situation where the whole nation can serve as a soldier. Therefore, even in a small village, Ye Junwen and his army will inevitably suffer a little casualties.
Fortunately, the IQ of the Lizardman seems to be not very good. In fact, although they have their own culture, from Ye Junwen's perspective, they are still very backward. They are basically in the primitive tribal culture. Most of the tools they use are made of stone, and they rarely see iron things, so in terms of equipment, the advantages of the human race are still very big.
However, according to others, the equipment used by the Lizardman troops is still very well-deserved. Of course, these equipment were not produced by them themselves, but were stolen from others, most of which were from the human empire. Therefore, with strong physique and excellent equipment, the regular army of the Kanzila Empire is still very combat-effective.
By the way, the lizard people have languages, of course, it is not the language used by humans, but their own unique language. Humans basically don’t understand it, and no one will learn the language of these lizards. However, Ye Junwen understood it, of course it was his ring.
This is the case. Ye Junwen caught a lizard man, and then the other party started yelling at him and others, probably cursing them or something. After all, the other party's village was destroyed by their army. Just as the other party was talking, Ye Junwen's ring also lit up, and this time it was still a blue light.
Ye Junwen was next to the lizardman and listened to the other party roaring there. After about five minutes, the ring showed that the analysis was completed, and then Ye Junwen could understand what the other party said. Judging from this situation, Ye Junwen's ring could automatically start analyzing when it collected the language that he had never heard of. As for the speed of analysis, it should be related to the frequency of the other party's speech. The analysis was very fast when the other party spoke there.
Sure enough, after understanding the other party's words, the other party said those words of cursing, and then said that their army would definitely avenge them. After listening for a while, Ye Junwen lost interest. After all, the other party would just repeat those few words, and even cursing them was not easy.
Of course, Ye Junwen and all the human soldiers did not feel guilty about the village that destroyed them, because these lizards... they still eat people. Yes, although the lizards have primitive culture, there is no moral concept. They will stuff what they can eat into their mouths and will not care what they are. The village that was destroyed this time was originally near the border between the human race and the lizards, so they also found some human bones here. It is estimated that these lizards captured people from the nearby human villages. So in the eyes of the human race, these people are actually monsters, and there is no problem in killing monsters.
Satisfied his curiosity, Ye Junwen also came to the tent again. Due to the critical situation recently, it was necessary to hold several combat meetings a day to discuss the movements of the troops. The soldiers also notified Ye Junwen to hold another meeting, and of course Ye Junwen is here now.
"Sure enough... have the troops of the Kanzila Empire still participated in the war?" As their troops entered the territory of the Kanzila Empire, everyone began to believe what Ye Junwen said. If the troops of the Kanzila Empire did not participate in the war, they should have seen the opponent's troops stop them now, but they have not yet waited for the opponent's troops, which means that the opponent's troops are not in their own defense zone, and they probably have really entered the territory of the human race.
The question they need to discuss this time is whether to destroy the other party's troops in the territory of the human race. At present, they are facing two choices. One is to ignore the lizard man and pass through the other party's territory as soon as possible. Anyway, the other party's troops are not there. They immediately go around and then rush back to the main city. The other choice is to wait a little here. The other party's troops know that something happens in their country should return to the aid, so they will defeat the other party's troops with ease, and then rush back to the main city. The main difference between these two plans is the time aspect.
There is no doubt that it is much faster to go directly to the main city now. Although I have taken a detour, I can still rush back immediately. If I wait for the enemy's army to come back, I don't know how long it will take. After all, they don't know where the Lizardman's troops are now, and how many days it will take to come back.
There are people who support both plans. One group advocates rushing back to rescue the main city immediately, which is of course the most critical. The other group thinks that if they go back now, the Lizardman's troops have not dealt with yet, and they are very dangerous. What if the other party catches up from behind or comes out to intercept them when they come out.
Of course, this matter also needs to be discussed by the senior management, and this senior management refers to He Jiaer and Ye Junwen. As for Prince Tesilu, although he has a high status, he does not understand military affairs, so he can only join in the fun and cannot put forward any meaningful opinions and express his opinion.
"General Serina felt that they should be eliminated first or return to the main city first." Hejar also asked directly.
"I prefer to solve the opponent's troops first." Ye Junwen said, "But if we don't deal with the Lizardman's troops first, it will be very dangerous for us to take a detour. The enemy should already know our location now."
"Well..." Hejar nodded. In fact, he was also very confused. Ye Junwen said it was indeed correct. Under normal circumstances, he would of course choose to destroy the enemy's troops first, otherwise the opponent's troops would not have to participate in the war. But now the main city is being attacked, and they don't get any useful news at the moment. I don't know what's going on in the main city. Of course they are anxious. What if they have been captured by the enemy or something?
The matter of what Ye Junwen said about the other party already knowing their location is very simple. First of all, they have entered the other party's borders, and it is normal for the other party to find out. Secondly, they have burned several villages. Just looking at the cigarette, you know something happened here, so even if no one notified the Lizardman troops in their empire, they should have found something was wrong.
"In fact, as long as we can quickly eliminate the enemy's troops, we will not delay much time." Ye Junwen suddenly said, "Think about it, if we don't destroy this troops, we will be extremely cautious even if we move forward. This will affect the speed of the march. But if we eliminate them, we will have nothing to worry about. We can rush to the road with all our might. Isn't the answer very obvious if we think about it like this?"
"Well, that's true," said Hedgeal. "Is General Serina able to quickly destroy this army of lizardmen?"
"Just just now, I found a few soldiers who had been here and asked," Ye Junwen said. "Although the lizard man is strong, he actually has obvious physical weaknesses compared to us humans."
"The weakness in physical aspects?" Hejar was a little stunned, because in his opinion, the lizard man was completely out of humans just because of the huge gap between their group and weapons and equipment and humans.
"In fact, I asked, they would hardly invade in winter." Ye Junwen said, "The battle ten years ago was due to the winter, so the opponent's attack temporarily stopped and then left nothing. From this point of view, it can be clearly seen that these lizard people are not cold-resistant."
"This..." Hejar really didn't know about this. In fact, no one had any in-depth research on the Lizardman. Even the veterans who had been here for a long time knew about it only based on their experience. No one had carefully sorted out this knowledge. And the place where Hejar was stationed all year round is not here, so it is normal not to know about this.
