The Era of Generals

silence.

Zheng Yuanlong sat back on his chair and did not leave in a hurry.

He was also worried about his elder brother's safety, and he was a little passionate for a while. To be able to sit on the position of the lord of a city, he would naturally not be an ordinary person.

Although Chen Ze's words are just analysis, but it is not unreasonable to calm down and think about it.

What's more, there has already been an accident in Xiyun City.

Thinking about it deeply, it seems really unreasonable for the Zhu Yan Empire to be willing to cast millions of heavy troops just to put their hopes in a forest of poisonous mist.

The three armies went ahead without mobilizing food and grass. To mobilize such a large number of troops, the food and grass supply alone would be an astronomical figure, so it is not too much to leave a few more backups for yourself.

The more he thought about it, the more dignified Zheng Yuanlong's expression became, and his eyes turned from Chen Ze to Mr. Jing.

"Old Jing, you... think so too?"

Compared with Chen Ze, Zheng Yuanlong is more willing to trust the chief officer of the military aircraft, even if he can add a preface now.

"What I think doesn't really matter."

Mr. Jing said: "As I said just now, our city has a small number of troops. Only these 40,000 troops will not be of any help to the frontal battlefield."

"Furthermore, if Brother Chen's deduction is true, the 40,000-odd troop strength may not be much, but it will still be a food burden for Bo'an City, so it's better to use it for other purposes!"

Zheng Yuanlong groaned after hearing the words, looked around at Chen Ze and Mr. Jing, and said in a deep voice: "So what do you mean, you would rather believe it?"

"good!"

Chen Ze took a step forward with a solemn expression, "My lord, it has been ten days since the Zhuyan Empire attacked Bo'an City. Except for us, other cities in Anluo Province have sent reinforcements to go on the road. The ones that are fast and close are probably already here.”

"Then the current total strength of Bo'an City is enough. We really don't need 40,000 people to join in the fun, so why not..."

He took a deep breath, and said slowly: "It's better to wander around Anluo Province and clean up the poisonous insects sent by the Zhuyan Empire!"

Zhu Yan Empire's attack came one day after he left Bo'an City, counting his journey to the Forest of Poisonous Mist and staying in Xiyun City for five days, ten days is more than enough.

"Easy to say!"

Zheng Yuanlong's tone was not as tough as before, but he still shook his head slightly, frowned and said, "Even if this is true, the province of Anluo is not small. If you refer to the troops invested in the Poisonous Mist Forest, it will not exceed a full battle. Thousands of people."

"The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. With more than 40,000 people in my general's hands, I am afraid that it depends on luck to achieve accurate sniping. What's more, no one can guarantee that there is only one so-called breakthrough?"

"When you don't know anything about the enemy, how difficult it is to catch them. What's more likely is that we are running around like headless chickens on the border of Anluo Province!"

Chen Ze smiled and said, "Actually, it's not completely clueless."

After all, he went straight to the wall and pointed to the location of the Poisonous Mist Forest on the map of Anluo Province, "The Poisonous Mist Forest is a special case, and there is only this hidden danger in Anluo Province, so if there are other breakthroughs If so, I think their number will be smaller than the number attacking Xiyun City, so they will not choose to attack the enemy to capture the city."

"After all, the guard posts on the national border are not decorations, and they will not be unaware of the infiltration of large-scale foreign enemies."

After a pause, he looked back at Zheng Yuanlong and Mr. Jing, "Since it's impossible to attack the city, their purpose is clearer, it's for logistics supplies, so..."

"Here, here, and here... These places are the lifeblood of Bo'an City, and almost most of the food and grass will be transported to Bo'an City."

Chen Ze pointed out a total of six routes, all end in Bo'an City, and start from several agriculturally developed cities in Anluo Province.

What Zheng Yuanlong said made Zheng Yuanlong nod again and again, a sudden look flashed across his eyes, and he agreed: "That's right, no matter how these bastards wander around, their purpose is to provide logistics!"

"However..." After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "It's still too much, there are six supply lines, and my general's strength is only over 40,000, which is not enough!"

"The enemy's strength is still unknown. Even if it is divided, it can only be divided into two armies of more than 40,000 people at most. It is the limit to defend two routes. It is impossible to defeat everything."

Divide troops.

If you want to defend the six routes, you need to allocate six troops. With the current strength of Xiyun City, you can only divide it into six teams of 8,000 people, not to mention that Xiyun City still needs some troops to defend. City, so in the most ideal state, 6,000 people per army is not bad.

Six thousand people are too few, and if we do encounter them, we can't tell who will beat whom.

And if it is just divided into two teams, the number of each team is reasonable, each has more than 20,000 people, but there are only two lines that can be guarded. , but to destroy the other four lines.

"No." Chen Ze shook his head and said, "Our military strength is not more than 40,000, but should have... close to 100,000!"

"One hundred thousand?"

Zheng Yuanlong frowned, "Do you still want to be recruited on the spot?"

Even Mr. Jing, who didn't speak much, couldn't help shaking his head and smiling wryly.

Zheng Yuanlong was born as a military general, and he is good at charging into battle, but when it comes to controlling the overall situation, he is indeed much worse.

Sure enough, Chen Ze said: "That's not necessary. If the people are temporarily recruited to join the army, firstly, the training speed is not enough to embarrass them, and secondly, there is also a problem in morale. The quantity has increased, but the quality is definitely not enough."

"Then where did your extra troops come from?"

Zheng Yuanlong was puzzled, and glanced at the map of Anluo Province again, shaking his head more and more, "The troops left behind in other cities are estimated to be barely enough to defend the city, and there should be no extra troops for us."

Chen Ze smiled wryly, and understood the reason why Zheng Yuanlong could only guard a remote town. The vision of this city lord...was really too shallow.

At the moment, he had no choice but to clarify: "Your Excellency the City Lord, you forgot, outside the province of An Luo?"

His finger slid across the poisonous mist forest at the edge of the map, and he clicked on the blank space on the wall, saying: "There is a city here, which is Biping City in Heyuan Province!"

"The envoy from Bo'an came to Xiyun City to report the enemy's situation that day, and then rushed to the next stop, Biping City. Counting the time, the reinforcements sent by Biping City are about to arrive."

"yes!"

Zheng Yuanlong slapped his thigh, and suddenly said: "How can I forget about Lao Yang, my elder brother was kind to him in the past, and Bo'an was in trouble, Lao Yang will definitely send troops to help!"

"Then let's wait for Lao Yang's troops to arrive, and the two sides join together before setting off?"

Before he knew it, Zheng Yuanlong had the intention of inquiring into Chen Ze's tone.

"That's right, with 100,000 troops in hand, we can guarantee logistics without any worries, but before the troops from Biping City arrive, there is one more thing that must be done first!"

Speaking of this, Chen Ze's eyes became cold.

Thanks to the three friends of Melbourne Nightmare, Stephen Kingdom, and Suifeng for their rewards, and ask for another wave of recommendation tickets, thank you!
