Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1924 Just do it!
Don't be fooled by the fact that the Boarmen and their people look like pigs with pig heads and brains and seem not very smart. In fact, among all animals, pigs are considered intelligent, and the Boarmen are no exception.

However, the boar people are a bit short-tempered and sometimes can't control their emotions. When they get angry, they do some stupid things.

With the three orc clan chiefs all focused on him, even Barbarian Bone would find it difficult to remain defiant.

However, even though he initially asked for an exorbitant amount, he did leave himself some room for negotiation.

"Then we'll give you another 10%, and our tribe will take 40%!"

After finishing speaking, Man Gu immediately emphasized another point.

"This is the bottom line! Don't think I don't know what you're up to. When it comes to the front lines, won't we, the Boarmen, still have to rely on our tribal warriors to charge into battle? We've endured so much pressure and casualties, so taking 40% is only fair!"

The boarmen would take 40%, and the remaining 60% would be easily divided among the three parties, with each party taking 20%. However, the boarmen would receive twice as much as the other party, which was obviously difficult for them to accept.

But Black Ridge had to admit that Savage Bone had hit the nail on the head.

What is their main purpose in needing the boarmen to hold off the main battle?
It's used to draw the enemy's heavy firepower!
The troops of their other three tribes are known for their agility and speed. Once the enemy's heavy weapons hit them, they will be met with powerful firepower, which will stop their advance. They need the tough-skinned boarmen to withstand this firepower.

But 40% is still too much.

"Thirty percent!"

"impossible!"

This time, it was Barbarian's turn to get angry.

"If we can't reach an agreement here, I'll go back and find other tribes to cooperate with. We boar people can cooperate with other tribes just the same. But you, without us holding the front line, can you even get this done?"

It has to be said that Barbarian is quite good at grasping the key points.

Of course, there are other orcs in the Orc Alliance who can withstand the frontal battles, but considering all aspects, the Boarmen are the best choice after Blackridge's consideration.

Both sides held their own opinions, and after some debate, they finally agreed that the wild boar tribe would take 35% of the looted food and supplies, and the remaining 65% would be divided among the three parties, with each party receiving a little over 20%.

The boar-man clan still takes more than 10% more food, but considering that the enemy has to withstand the frontal firepower, which is indeed important, and the risks involved are also greater, they are not unwilling to accept it now.

After the agreement was fully reached, the orcs were quite efficient, mainly because the weather was getting colder and they didn't have much time left.

Furthermore, they cannot place all their hopes for obtaining food on the goblin kingdom.

They're not stupid. Did they not understand anything Black Ridge said?

They might take advantage of the situation and easily solve the problem of winter food, but they might also fail or not be able to seize enough food supplies.

They always need to give themselves some extra time, so that if they can't figure it out, they still have time to think of other solutions.

The alliance of four orc tribes—werewolfs, badgermen, kobolds, and boarmen—was quickly formed.

If they operate during the day, they will be discovered very quickly, as was the case when they fought the goblins.

Because goblin airships can stay airborne for extended periods to perform surveillance duties.

Although the opposing side has changed its personnel, it's clear from the fact that they were able to detect their presence immediately and that the cavalry that came to intercept them arrived before they even crossed the border that the other side possesses the same capability.

Therefore, Black Ridge's first reaction was to launch a night attack!

This is also the main reason why he chose the boarman.

Although boar-men do not have night vision, or to put it bluntly, boar-men do not have very good daytime vision either.

However, they primarily relied on their keen sense of smell, which also gave them excellent night combat capabilities. Before they even got close, they discovered that in the distance, along the new district's defensive line, massive searchlights were constantly sweeping across the area.

Knowing that there were orcs on the other side, how could Wei Qing not be wary of a night raid?

Not to mention that before this, the goblins themselves often dealt with orc night raids, and this large searchlight was installed specifically to target the orcs.

Other weapons and equipment were the wrong size, so they couldn't use them.

But these large searchlights are universal, so they just picked up what was readily available this time. They can simply adjust the positions later according to their own deployment.

This situation was not beyond the orcs' expectations; they had faced similar situations before.

Even so, a night raid would still be more advantageous for them than an offensive during the day.

"Same as always, find an opportunity to destroy those headlights on the other side first."

This wasn't the first time the various orc tribes had cooperated, and the tactics they had used in the past didn't need further explanation at this moment.

After confirming the situation, they quickly took action.

They didn't let the werewolf or kobold troops sneak up first to try and destroy the searchlights.

There's no need to even try; given the frequency of the searchlights on the other side, it's practically impossible.

Once they are spotted by the enemy's searchlights, heavy weapons will immediately sweep over them, and they will suffer heavy casualties.

To avoid this situation, the safest approach is to have the boarmen push forward first, drawing enemy fire before launching their own attack.

Barbarian Bone was well aware of this; Black Spine had specifically sent someone to invite them over just to do this.

Now that they've arrived at the destination and the payment has been agreed upon, Mangu naturally won't change his mind at the last minute.

After letting out a snort to express his slight displeasure, he led his boarmen to begin their advance.

Under the cover of night, and as the distance between them closed, the boar-men's whereabouts were soon exposed.

In an instant, the piercing alarm shattered the tranquility of the night.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"

From the day the wolf riders appeared, this side of the border entered a state of high alert, especially at night, when vigilance was heightened.

Now that the orc army has attacked, the Zhou soldiers, who were already mentally prepared, are not in a state of panic.

But when the searchlight shone on each of the boarmen, completely exposing their figures to their view, it still had a significant visual impact on them.

"Those are the boarmen mentioned in the goblin intelligence?"

"Who cares what it is? Just do it!"

As the dwarf machine gunner beside him spoke, he quickly began operating the hand-cranked heavy machine gun in his hand.

The next second, a rapid series of gunshots echoed wildly through the darkness.

At this moment, the hand-cranked heavy machine gun was spitting out fire like snakes, but the dwarf machine gunner's arms were as steady as a mountain, firmly controlling the heavy machine gun's attack, sweeping it towards the advancing boarmen!
