7792 Chapter 7790-still need to rely on a cockroach
“Ten days! Fire sickle city, curl Flower City, and Fei Du city should be able to hold on. There are twelve to eighteen thousand troops stationed in these three cities. Seitong Commandery is known to have two hundred thousand troops, but if they split their troops into three, they might not be able to take down the city quickly!”
Great military counselor Jin Yuan Bao could not help but frown slightly. He cupped his fists and said,””General, even if Seton Commandery is divided into two groups, each group will have 60000 to 70000 soldiers, which is at least four to five times the number of the defenders. Let’s not talk about whether we can hold on or not. Even if we give up the logistics troops and gather the city guards along the way, it won’t be of much use, right?”
With just 20000 people, even if they were the elites of the Imperial City’s Garrison, it would be difficult to save a city from the hands of 60000 to 70000 enemy troops, let alone three cities!
The people of seitong Commandery weren’t stupid. They knew that Lin Yi had brought reinforcements, so why wouldn’t they?
The seitong Commandery had an absolute advantage in military strength, so they had more manpower to mobilize than Lin Yi.
“If the people of seitong Commandery are attacking the three cities, we might be able to do something as a surprise attack. But I’m worried that … They will surround us and not attack us!”
Jin Yuan Bao rubbed his eyebrows.”Commander, if the situation is really urgent, the three cities in the northern border will definitely send urgent reports to the king’s city. We received the first urgent report yesterday. We should have received a second or even a third urgent report by now.”
“And the result? There was actually no news! Wasn’t this very strange? Each family in the three cities struck it once, so it should be three times!”
Lin Yi nodded slightly, pleased that Jin Yuanbao was acting like a military advisor now. The fatty from Luling city seemed to have changed.
“You mean there’s a conspiracy in the copper County? Surround them and get reinforcements?”
Wu yucao’s handsomeness wasn’t just for show. After asking, she fell into deep thought.”Marshal, the military counselor’s words are very reasonable. It’s meaningless for us to rush over with 20000 people. This will only form a strategy of adding fuel to the fire. Why don’t we wait until we have gathered our troops along the way?”
The so-called refueling tactic meant that it was the same as adding oil to an oil lamp. Each time, a little oil would be poured in, and after it burned, it would be poured again.
In this way, the fire would never be extinguished. In a war, the fire was the enemy, and the oil was the Army.
In the case of the enemy’s small number, the tactic of adding fuel to the fire would cause the enemy to be completely defeated, not to mention that the enemy had a great advantage now. It was easy to get out of this game!
“Your concerns are very reasonable, but quality is more important than quantity. If all of you are from the garrison of the palace, the more the better. But if you transfer troops along the way to form a new army, you don’t even have time to get used to it before going to the battlefield.”
“I think this kind of Army is just a motley crew! It’s better to just have these twenty thousand soldiers. ”
Although Lin Yi said that, the real reason was that he didn’t care about the people from seitong Commandery at all.
It was only 200000, and each city only had 60000 to 70000. It was far inferior to the sun-swallowing rat tide and could not threaten him at all.
Twenty thousand elites should be enough to take care of them. If not, Lin Yi felt that he could take them all on his own.
“Marshal is right, we didn’t think it through.”
Wu yucao and Jin Yuanbao looked at each other, naturally accepting Lin Yi’s explanation.
They were all newbies in the military, and it was a bit of a rush to take on such a heavy responsibility. Lin Yi’s opinion was basically their final decision.
Lin Yi felt helpless. He wanted them to be strong, but it seemed like they needed time and space to grow.
Someone came in to report that lunch was ready, and the generals were invited. Lin Yi waved his hand and ended the meeting.
The Army’s food was simple and crude. Everyone hastily filled their stomachs, rested for a moment, and then got up to continue moving forward.
This time, Fei daqiang didn’t act with the rear Army. Instead, he promoted an assistant to manage the Army. He himself took a few guards and went to Blue Moon City first.
Cangyue city. This place did not have the tension of a war.
Perhaps the news of the war at the northern border had not yet spread, so the city was still peaceful and prosperous.
Fei daqiang directly went to find the city Lord of cangyue city. The other party had been preparing after receiving the order. At this time, he had already arranged the Army and materials.
After verifying Fei daqiang’s identity, he simply handed it over to him.
Four thousand men, and enough food for fifty thousand to eat for ten days!
Fei daqiang and the city Lord of cangyue city talked for a while, trying to say that there was too little food, but it was of no use.
The city Lord had only given Lin Yi, the young prince of the Sima family, an extra twenty percent of the provisions.
10 days became 12 days … It could be considered an increase!
“It seems like it’s not reliable to expect these city Lords to take out more food!”
Fei daqiang left the city Lord’s mansion and stood on the street, pretending to be very depressed. He looked up to the sky and sighed,””If you don’t want the Army to go hungry, you have to rely on me, Fei daqiang!”
Cangyue city was the city with the most food on Lin Yi’s route. If he couldn’t get more here, it’d be a big problem if the northern border fell into a stalemate!
The capital would slowly gather resources, but Lin Yi had already told his small teams not to count on the capital too much.
There were too many people there who didn’t want to see Sima Zhongda rise. Even if Sima Zhongda had his eyes on him, it might not be of any use.
After all, the people in charge of this power were not from the Sima clan!
Fei daqiang’s guards didn’t have any reaction, which made him very sad.
No one came to support you even when you were acting tough. You deserve to be the guards of the logistics team!
“The few of you, split up and look for the grain merchants in Blue Moon City. Tell them that general Conqueror Fei da Qiang has invited them to the best restaurant in Blue Moon City tonight to discuss business.”
Fei daqiang paused for a moment and then added,”When you go, bring a team of Blue Moon City’s soldiers, they are familiar with Blue Moon City! By the way, ask them where the best restaurant in Blue Moon City is. Don’t be unable to find the place when the time comes. ”
The guards behind him bowed and accepted the order. They first went to find the soldiers of Blue Moon City.
The 4,000 troops had already been handed over to Fei daqiang, so the command was in his hands. For a long time, they would be Fei daqiang’s grain protection Team.
Lin Yi had already passed cangyue city and continued to move forward. He didn’t enter the city at all and left everything to Fei daqiang to handle.
To be honest, they would be very fast if they were to rush to the northern border in such light clothing. However, if there were any accidents on the way and they did not have any food supplies, the 20000 elite guards of the king’s city would probably be completely annihilated!
Lin Yi’s team didn’t know if it was because they were brave, or if they didn’t expect to get into an accident in Hongshang Commandery, but no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
