Chapter 108, retreat as advance
After returning to the camp, after everyone helped Zhou Tengyun set up his army, they came to Wang Zhong's tent to discuss the next battle.
Due to the disadvantage of the teacher, the atmosphere in the big tent was a little solemn, but the wood was already in the boat, and they could only look forward.
Wang Zhong looked at the five Terran Lords sitting below, he cleared his throat and shared the information he had discovered.
"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the information gathered by my werewolf scouts, Halle Loki's base camp is thirty kilometers north of us.
The good news is that there is a lake, so we don't have to worry about the water anymore.
The bad news is that Halle Loki's base camp has been walled, and we don't have any siege equipment with us, so if Halle Loki doesn't come out of the city, we'll have to fight him in a siege battle. ”
Sure enough, it was a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and everyone killed them and couldn't imagine that a werewolf lord actually built a city with a city wall on the prairie, is this still the werewolf clan in the player's cognition?
You know, even the Terran lords haven't been able to build a city with walls.
The siege battle was originally dominated by the defenders, but now they did not have any siege equipment in their hands, and the trees were very scarce in this vast grassland.
Now even if they want to make some siege ladders on the spot, they can't find any materials, how can this siege battle be fought?
There was a deathly silence in the big tent, and everyone frowned, trying to think of a way to break the situation.
When Wang Zhong first heard the news, he was also very worried, although he came here this time to pick up ready-made, but he had to completely defeat the enemy before he could do it, so he was more anxious than anyone else.
After racking his brains for a long time, he really came up with a solution, that is, to gather superior forces, launch a siege battle from all sides at the same time, and use the advantage of troops to crush the enemy.
Although this method is feasible, it is a bad idea, after all, relying on numbers to exchange lives with the enemy, their side will definitely suffer heavy losses, but these soldiers are not his subordinates, so he has nothing to worry about.
But the question now is how he can convince these shrewd guys?
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming more and more solemn, Wang Zhong had to speak out to break the tranquility.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe he has already told you, this time everyone can come to help me, I am very grateful, I thought we would have a head-on battle with the enemy, but I didn't expect the enemy to already have a city.
I reckon if this Halle Loki wasn't stupid, he would definitely fight a defensive battle with us, so if we were to storm it, there would inevitably be a lot of casualties.
Today, I am very grateful that you can help me, it is not easy for you to train these soldiers, and I will never let everyone lose their troops for their own selfish interests.
This favor is too great for me to afford, and I can't afford to pay it back, so my suggestion is that if it is really impossible, we will find a safe place to stay for ten days, and when the tenth day comes, we will withdraw our troops directly. ”
Wang Zhong knew that no matter what he said, these shrewd guys in front of him would not lose their troops for their own sake, so he directly made a move to retreat.
The five lords sitting opposite him now, one of them had just suffered a huge loss, and if he really wanted to return in vain, I am afraid that he would be the first to be unacceptable, and he must be thinking about how to take revenge now.
There is also a guy who was fascinated by his sister, and now he is dreaming about how to be promoted to the Silver Phoenix Palace, but he returns in vain, I'm afraid he can't accept it.
As for the remaining three guys, he had no choice, and now he could only pin his hopes on Zhou Tengyun and Feng Tianyu to see if their relationship with the Five Emperors League was deep.
Sure enough, after listening to Wang Zhong's words, Zhou Tengyun was the first to quit.
"Brother Wang Zhong, it's your fault to say this, how can we not be defeated?
What's wrong with the siege war, I don't believe that their city walls are copper walls and iron walls, besides, although the enemy has built a city wall, but you don't explain how high this city wall is, if it is only three or four meters high, what kind of siege ladder do you use, we stacked Arhats and rushed up directly. ”
Zhou Tengyun is now bent on revenge, and Wang Zhong's words sounded very harsh to him, so he didn't give Wang Zhong any good looks.
"Brother Tengyun is right, Brother Wang Zhong, we have dispatched so many troops, where can we retreat directly without fighting, fighting and fighting, how can we know who loses and who wins without fighting.
Besides, Brother Tengyun has suffered such a big loss, as brothers, how can we just leave, so I agree with Brother Tengyun's opinion that this battle must be fought. ”
Feng Tianyu's mind is now full of pictures of staying and flying with Wang Qian, so as soon as he heard Wang Zhong say that he would stop fighting, he would stop doing it.
What are you kidding, if he can't be promoted to the Silver Phoenix Palace, how can he go to Shuangsu and Shuangfei with Wang Qian, besides, Wang Zhong, the cheap eldest brother, he has already decided that if he really retreats back like this, he can't explain to Wang Qian, so this battle must be fought.
One was blinded by hatred, the other was fascinated by beauty, looking at these two guys, Ning Yuan's heart was full of helplessness.
Now was the time to test the unity of their Five Imperial Alliances, so he set his eyes on Wu Yitian and Qin Hanhai, wanting to see what the two of them thought.
After Wu Yitian, Qin Hanhai, and Ning Yuan looked at each other a few times, he shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "I also agree with Brother Tengyun and Brother Tianyu, this battle must be fought, but how to fight, we must think long-term."
If the enemy's walls are really not high, then we will use the superiority in strength to besiege the city, and then attack from all sides, as long as we can enter the city and open the gates, then we will win the battle.
If the city wall is too high, then we can't attack the city without siege equipment, so I suggest that everyone have a good rest for a day today, and wait until tomorrow to see how high the city wall is, and then make specific plans. ”
Wu Yitian said that it was reasonable, instead of conjecturing here, it was better to go to the scene to see the situation in person and then make plans, so after discussing some matters, several people returned to the camp to rest.
