Chapter 84 Fighting Guerrilla
Eleven days have passed since the last time the lizardmen attacked the small village of Nisai.
During these eleven days, not a single lizardman appeared near Nisai Village.
What a peaceful scene!
The villagers dared not leave the city walls to reach outside the village, nor did they need to go out.
Every villager has enough rye at home, and the grocery store sells both sweet powder and honeycomb coal, and recently added the luxury of snow salt.
The domestic water can be used directly by boiling the snow on the ground, which is natural and pollution-free!
Therefore, no trace of the lizardman was found again during this period of time. The villagers and wild slaves were in a happier mood, thinking that they could sit back and relax!
However, in the earthen house, William's face became more and more serious.
The magic mirror was placed in front of him.
After so many lizardmen died, the magic mirror really became fatter.
Because of this, William has the confidence to use the magic mirror generously to check for information.
At this time, the situation in the dark forest was displayed on the mirror: a group of lizardmen with scars and no fighting spirit met another group of larger lizardmen. At this time, they were dancing and communicating, From time to time, they use their sharp claws to point in a certain direction.
William knew that this direction was the direction of his village.
And this group of lizardmen with scars and no fighting spirit is just the remnants of the group of lizardmen he defeated before.
With William's magic mirror in hand, he has always been very aware of the movements of the remnants of the lizardmen.
They spread out and hovered in the nearby dark forest.
Although they dare not come out of the forest to face William's team, they have never been far away.
They are in the nearby forest, gnawing on the bark, catching wild animals everywhere, and even eating their own people when they are extremely hungry.
It was not a problem for William to see them hovering nearby. After thinking about it, he decided to take the initiative and enter the dark forest alone to hunt down the remnants of the lizardmen.
In a battle of thousands of people, William was more restricted.
But in assassination, especially when William has a treasure like the magic mirror, he is invincible.
After entering the dark forest, William quickly killed a group of remnants of the lizardmen with the detection ability of the magic mirror.
But within a few days, the lizardmen came to their senses, thinking about migrating deep into the forest, and scattered around to dodge.
William's efficiency dropped all of a sudden.
Especially in the complex terrain of the forest, William had to use the magic mirror to detect the whereabouts of the lizardmen every time, and he could only find two or three each time. The cost-effectiveness of using the magic mirror was too low.
William was afraid that before all the remnants of the Lizardmen were killed, the energy of the magic mirror would be exhausted first.
So I had to leave the Dark Forest.
But still closely monitor the dynamics of the nearby forest.
Until this time, William discovered the remnants of these lizardmen, and finally came into contact with other lizardmen tribes.
The number of this lizardman tribe is much larger than that of the lizardman tribe who attacked William. There are more than 3,000 people in the whole tribe!
And the lizardmen are all soldiers, that is to say, this tribe consists of more than 3,000 soldiers.
This is a scary statistic.
Seeing the two groups of lizard people dancing and looking in his direction from time to time, William knew that these group of lizard people knew about the existence of his village and regarded them as a meal on their plate.
In the magic mirror, William could even see the greedy gaze in the eyes of the new lizardman tribal leader.
This is not a good sign.
During this time, use the magic mirror to observe the movement in the dark forest.
William gradually figured out the situation in the Shadow Swamp.
Hundreds of thousands of lizardfolk live in the Shadowfen.
The swamp is rich in natural resources. Usually, a swamp alone is enough to meet the lizard people's survival needs.
In addition, lizard people like dampness and darkness by nature, so they rarely wander into the dark forest.
But it's different when it snows in winter.
Snowflakes fluttered, and the low temperature froze the water surface of the swamp.
A large part of the lizardmen's survival resources come from the aquatic resources in the swamp.
As soon as the water surface was frozen, the survival pressure of the lizard people appeared.
Therefore, every winter, the lizardmen had to rush out of the swamp in groups in all directions.
The reason is nothing more than eating in one bite.
But rushing there is also particular about it!
William's side was empty before, and for the lizard people, it was a food barren land.
As for the other areas, the area close to the Golden Rose Kingdom is relatively densely populated, and to the Lizardmen, this is a fertile land.
In the animal kingdom, the strong have everything, and the weak eat the leftovers.
There is no doubt that the lizardman tribe that attacked William before was a weak one among all the lizardmen.
But now this weak man has met a strong man who is stronger than him.
This is what William is going to have a headache about.
Is it still the same as before, leaning against the city wall, guarding the gate and counterattacking?
As soon as this idea came to William's mind, he immediately rejected it!
The attack power and coverage of 3,000 people cannot be compared with the attack power and coverage of 1,000 people.
If one point is breached, the whole line will collapse, and the small village of Nisai will be overthrown immediately.
At that time, maybe William and the captain of the guards may escape, and the others will probably have to be buried in the belly of the lizardman.
William could not accept that the territory that had been established with so much hard work was destroyed in this way!
so what should I do now? William thought to himself.
Can't sit still! Then take the initiative! The thought suddenly popped into William's mind.
He remembered Taizu's guerrilla policy: When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack;
Although it cannot be fully applied to his own situation, for example, his base camp is here, so there is no way to retreat!
But he has a magic mirror, so he can predict the movements of the lizard people in advance, which gives William a lot of room for manipulation.
It is impossible to fight guerrillas in the dark forest like in the previous life, pushing all the guards and servants up.
Compared with the lizardmen who have been living in the wild, if William really did this, it would not be a guerrilla.
Instead, I went to give away the head!
But to form an elite team and use the best equipment to continuously harass and fight guerrillas against the Lizardmen, William can do it all.
Just like the special forces in the previous life.
In this world, knights with physiques beyond ordinary people can be used as such.
And William has exactly such a team in his hands!
Especially those surviving guards who had made great contributions and were rewarded with folk prescriptions by William.
They are sharp knives!
