Chapter 868: Intelligence Analysis

Guo Jia's analysis made the atmosphere more and more depressing. Everyone only felt the pressure of a big mountain, which made people feel breathless!

Four million troops is nothing, the total strength of the Pingzhou army alone is more than five million, and it is in an absolute advantage on the Huaxia side of the military strength!

However, countless facts have proven that the victory or defeat of the war does not matter the number of troops!

The composition of the army on the Chinese side was mainly the fifth order, supplemented by about 20% of the sixth-order army, plus a small (relatively speaking) seventh-order and eighth-order army.

And the mysterious army started with the sixth order, and the main elite troops were all seventh-order soldiers, and it was conservatively estimated that the number of eighth-order troops was no less than 200,000, and the number of ninth-order troops was difficult to deduce, but at least not less than 20,000!

In terms of army power, the mysterious army has an absolute advantage.

Not to mention that the mysterious army may have a Void-Breaking level master, and it is also at a disadvantage on the Huaxia side of the top combat power, as for how inferior it is, it depends on luck.

In the face of the mysterious army, the Pingzhou army realized the sense of grievance of being the enemy force with the Pingzhou army in the past, but it was limited everywhere and was pressed and beaten violently!

Seeing that everyone was depressed and heavy, Guo Jia smiled and waved his hand: "Although the enemy is numerous, our army is not without a chance to win!" ”

Everyone in despair was suddenly shocked, and their eyes were focused on Guo Jia. Even Xi Zhicai cast a curious look. He wondered how far this assistant, who had a reputation as a ghost among the Inhumans, had grown.

Guo Jia cleared his throat and continued: "First of all, the enemy's foundation is weak. Although for various reasons, we are unable to effectively scout the mysterious royal city, we can be sure that the enemy army only owns one royal city and no other auxiliary buildings.

The royal city is great, and it can even be said that with the royal city, you have the qualifications to compete in the world. But even if we calculate a single royal city according to the standard of the top royal city Chang'an, it is far inferior to the cumulative sum of twenty-two giant cities and thousands of large, medium and small cities.

The weak foundation and insufficient foundation are the greatest weakness of the enemy army and the greatest advantage of China. We can rely on the absolute advantage of manpower and material resources to slowly engage in consumption with them! ”

Seeing everyone's thoughtful looks, Guo Jia continued: "Secondly, our army has an absolute superiority in strength! According to the report sent by Yan Huang, after the three major garrison points were raided, the number of troops stationed in the first-line node by Yan Huang still exceeded 14 million, plus more than 5 million of our army, and the first-line strength was nearly 20 million!

The ratio of elite combat forces on both sides is almost five to one!

In the rear, we don't know much about the situation in Yanhuang, but our army can still draw at least four million troops to participate in the battle. Yanhuang should also have nearly 10 million regular troops that can be increased.

If we take into account the scorching situation of the war and the ultimate mobilization of both sides, our army will have a greater advantage. If the situation so requires, we can even mobilize more than 50 million troops to fight.

According to the estimation of Yan Huang by their subordinates, the number of troops they can mobilize even exceeds 100 million!

Of course, the maximum mobilization ratio will not be taken into account until the last moment. ”

Although he talked about his own military superiority, the generals frowned when they heard it. The most common thing the Pingzhou army did was to defeat the enemy with a small number of elite troops, and then expand the results of the battle, and then cause a total rout of the enemy army.

As for besieging the enemy's high-ranking army with a large number but not of high quality, this kind of play has never been encountered by the Pingzhou army.

And the number of troops is not as large as possible, otherwise there would be no commander value. One of the top generals present is counted as one, and no one dares to guarantee that the number of troops will be able to command smoothly after the number of troops exceeds 10 million.

"The third and final point is that the enemy is trapped here and must face the dilemma of fighting on two fronts. As everyone knows, two-front warfare has always been a taboo for soldiers, and no one will choose to fight on two fronts unless absolutely necessary.

And because of Yan Huang's foresight, our army temporarily trapped the enemy here. The range of movement of the enemy army was reduced, and the mobility advantage of the enemy's elite cavalry was further weakened. It has the possibility of steady progress and step by step. ”

"Good analysis!"

Xi Zhicai clapped his hands lightly and looked at Guo Jiadao with a smile.

"A little foolishness, just throwing bricks and attracting jade, it should not be praised by the military advisor!"

Guo Jia showed a shy smile in an extremely rare way, and said modestly.

"Lord, Feng Xiao has finished saying everything his subordinates want to say. His analysis of the enemy's intentions, troops, combat effectiveness, and the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy coincided with that of his subordinates. There is nothing more for the subordinates to add. However, there is one thing that the subordinates need to remind the lord. ”

"Strategist, please speak, this general will listen to you!"

Shang Ji stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.

"Just as Feng Xiao said, our army has absolute superiority in manpower, material resources, and war potential, but at the same time, we should also realize that war potential is not directly equal to war capability. The enemy army can completely rely on the super combat strength of the army to feed the war with war, and destroy or even plunder our war potential.

If we want to maintain our advantage in war potential, we must do two things. First, the enemy must not be allowed to break through the defensive circle! With the enemy's superiority in combat, intelligence, and mobility, we will fall into strategic passivity after breaking away from the defensive circle. The enemy's forces can completely use the characteristics of great detours and high mobility to gradually consume and encroach on our army.

The second point is that the restraining forces in the rear must be eliminated as soon as possible!

Only by maintaining stability in the rear can we continue to provide us with all kinds of materials and soldiers. Once the enemy forces in the rear are made bigger and a snowball is formed, our army will lose its advantage or even suffer from the enemy on its back, and will inevitably lead to defeat in the end. ”

Listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Shang Ji nodded thoughtfully.

From now on, the importance of the enemy forces in the rear must be raised by another level. The sooner the enemy forces in the rear are eliminated, the sooner the advantage of the large number of people and the strength of the Chinese side can be brought into play.

Shang Ji got up, looked around at everyone, and said loudly: "You have all heard, there are two priorities at the moment, which are to continue to besiege the enemy army, prevent the enemy army from running out of the encirclement, and destroy the enemy troops in the rear as soon as possible.

The siege was simple, and although we lost the first battle, the enemy army would not be able to break through the encirclement for a while and a half by virtue of the dangerous terrain and the urgently built defensive facilities, and with several times our superiority in troops.

In this way, the most urgent task is to encircle and suppress the enemy forces in the rear. Chu Ming served as the presidential commander of the rear, and it was inevitable that one person would be unable to do so, and he would have intended to transfer another general to assist Chu Ming in stabilizing the rear as soon as possible, I wonder which general would like to go? ”

"Lord, the last general is willing to go!"

As soon as Shang Ji's voice fell, he heard a voice of asking for battle, Shang Ji looked for prestige, and the person who spoke out was the commander of the Yanhu Legion, Qin Ping!
