Under normal circumstances, sahuagin people tend to focus on attacking at night. On the one hand, the cool climate after the sun goes down can reduce the evaporation of water on their skin and extend the time they can be active on land.
On the other hand, the sahuagin who are born with dark vision can gain a greater tactical advantage at night, especially after the complete weaponization of human weapons. The sahuagin began to rely on their advantages in night combat to even out the human advantage in weapons.
.
But even so, the sahuagin attack during the next day was still too weak. If the first day they used the sahuagin civilians to fool them and pretended that they were attacking elite troops, now they simply gave up all their efforts.
In disguise, they just sent a group of scattered sahuagin warriors to go ashore with a group of loka minions to harass them.
Under normal circumstances, everyone would just think that this was because the Sahuagin attacks had suffered so much in the previous attacks that they had to reduce the intensity of their attacks now.
After all, sahuagin people cannot survive on land at all, and attacking land is only supported by an instinctive disgust for land creatures and a strong desire for land wealth. Therefore, under normal circumstances, sahuagin people do not have that kind of fortification.
The custom of prolonged sieges along the coastline.
Therefore, the attacks of the sahuagin are often in waves. Under normal circumstances, as long as the land side can withstand the first few rounds of attacks launched by the sahuagin, they will soon lose the patience to continue attacking, and then the number will decrease step by step.
The intensity of the attack on land caused him to completely withdraw from the battlefield in the end.
Of course, the number of rounds of that high-intensity attack is not fixed. So humans can only infer their current status through their actions.
The changes in attack intensity of the sahuagins in the past few days can be seen as a result of being fooled. As the leader of this group of troops, the sahuagin prince felt that this time he encountered a tough opponent and it was difficult to win in the robbery competition.
champion, so he turned to prepare to preserve as much strength as possible so that he could retain his rights after the new king ascended the throne.
However, after Lawrence brought news about the magic props and magic scrolls that the sahuagin had purchased before, the sahuagin's contraction of power was understood by everyone on the island that they were accumulating strength and preparing to
The ironclad evidence of launching a surprise attack was based on the surrender of the Loka fishmen.
For example, regarding the view of some civil affairs officials at the headquarters that the other side would soon retreat, the commander-in-chief, Lieutenant General Buckner, immediately said that although the sahuagin generally bully the weak and fear the strong, they do not like to build on the other side with the legions on land.
Face to face in the base zone.
But in this kind of battle for the throne of the Sahuagin Kingdom, it is absolutely impossible for the princes to give up their desire for the throne just because they failed in one or two rounds of battle.
Sure enough, not long after night fell that day, Lawrence felt that the scales left by the previous sahuagin elder began to burn quickly. When he rode his horse, Nora and the guards arrived at the small bay, they had agreed
After arriving at the location, they saw four or five wounded Loka fishmen with their bodies half submerged in the water, waiting for them.
"Who are you? And where are the elders from last time?" Lawrence frowned subconsciously after seeing the Loka fishman who came to negotiate for the first time.
Although due to the differences between races, he could hardly tell the individual differences between the Loka fish-men when he looked at them, but as a scholar, he could still clearly see that the Loka fish-man who appeared here was a young
The Loka fishman, not the old Loka fishman elder.
"I am Hua Fin, the nephew of Elder Cai Fin." After hearing Lawrence's question, the Loka fish man was stunned for a moment, and then quickly defended, "My uncle was in contact with the Loka fish people in other villages.
He was seriously injured, so we can only hide him temporarily to avoid the search of the sahuagin and then come and inform you."
After saying this, the young Loka murloc fumbled under a scale on his chest for a few seconds, took out half a coin, then handed it to Lawrence with his webbed paws and said, "This is my uncle who is in a coma.
He gave it to me before he went there, and he also gave it to me when he asked me to inform you of this matter, saying that it could prove my identity."
"Oh?" Lawrence took the coin with a serious face, and then took out the other half of the coin from his pocket and put it together with this coin in front of the group of Loka fishmen. Sure enough, the two coins
The fracture marks were exactly the same, and one could tell at a glance that this was the same coin before, but it was just broken open later.
Seeing that the group of Loka fishmen in front of him showed a relaxed expression for a moment when they saw this scene, and then quickly returned to their original behavior, Lawrence's mouth was slightly hooked, and then returned to his normal expression and said: "That's right.
, how is your uncle's physical condition now? Why don't you bring him for us to treat him."
Lawrence's sudden question made the young sahuagin in front of him look a little flustered. But he soon regained his composure and said to Lawrence:
"My uncle was stabbed in the thigh by a sahuagin with a trident. The injury was not serious. However, the wound affected his movement and prevented him from crossing the blockades set up by the sahuagin offshore.
line. So it is enough for him to recuperate in one of our hidden locations."
"If this is the case, I hope your uncle can recover soon." Lawrence smiled and then asked. "By the way, I think since your uncle told you the token and our meeting place, then you should know
What should you do next?"
"Of course, my uncle asked me to contact you with some details in order to save my compatriots." The young Loka fishman named Hua Fin said.
"My uncle asked me to tell you that the sahuagin will launch a large-scale attack in the second half of tonight, and we will also take this opportunity to kill the small number of sahuagin who are monitoring us on the periphery and move closer.
I hope you and your subordinates can help us."
"Of course, of course we will respond to you." Lawrence said, while pointing to several places where torches are densely packed on the cliff at the entrance of the bay. "After I discussed with the headquarters before, they are willing to cooperate with our actions and mobilize
A portion of the artillery and infantry are here to defend and provide you with cover."
"In addition, we have a reserve team of about one battalion in the flat land behind the harbor that can mobilize reinforcements at any time." Lawrence shrugged and said. "Of course, because the terrain around the harbor is really rough.
It is not suitable for troops to be stationed for a long time, so they can only be deployed slightly further back."
"If that's the case - that would be great." The young Loka fishman said, "Thank you for everything you have done for us. I will stay here to communicate with you in the next period of time.
Situation. If there is no accident, my compatriots will arrive here at around 3:00 in the morning."
"Understood, we will make defensive preparations before this point in time, because the time you left for us to land this time is really too short, so we still have a lot of work that has not been completed."
Lawrence nodded and said, "I think it took a lot of energy for you to cross the blockade of the group of sahuagins, and there is still some time before your compatriots arrive. So you can go to this room first.
Let’s rest for a while.”
After saying that, Lawrence made a gesture of invitation and pointed to the original resort behind him and said: "There is a landscape seawater pool built with running water in the resort. I think you can have a good meal and have a rest."
