"Then what else can we do, as you can see, our army has just pulled out of the southern border of Saida, and the first thing we face is the Seine King's City. If we don't choose to storm here, is there any other option? You must know that the royal city of Seine is surrounded by steep mountains, even if our troops can spend a lot of money to pass through this mountainous area, but because of the existence of the royal city of Seine, our supplies cannot bypass the royal city of Seine and send it to the troops in front. After comprehending Li Yi's intentions, Elena still asked with a stomach full of questions.
Seeing Elena's anxious appearance, Li Yi said with a smile: "Hehe, I didn't say that I wanted to bypass the Seine King City. Well, I'm not going to go around in circles with you guys. That old-timer said that when the Yanlong Legion chose to declare war on the Tianlan Empire, the first thing to face must be the Seine Royal City. At that time, the Yanlong Legion must go all out to attack the royal city, and always launch a fierce attack on the royal city of Senna while ensuring minimal losses. As long as the reinforcements of the Tianlan Empire arrive, it will be considered the first step of this tactic. ”
"What do you mean?" Hearing this, Elena still couldn't comprehend the true intention of the strategy relayed by Li Yi, so Elena still asked with a puzzled face.
"Elena, I think with your intelligence, you should be able to think of it. This time, the Yanlong Legion is at war with the Tianlan Empire, if we can't overcome the defense of the Senna King City this time, when the Tianlan Empire's aid army arrives in the Senna King City, what will the Tianlan Empire do next. Looking at Elena with a smile, Li Yi asked lightly.
"That is naturally going to launch the most violent revenge on our Yanlong Legion, although I can't figure out why the Tianlan Empire was so forgiving to our Yanlong Legion before, but one thing is certain. This time, our Yanlong Legion took the initiative to jump into battle, and has launched a fierce attack on the Seine Royal City. To this end, the Tianlan Empire has mobilized nearly a million troops to march here. Once the army of the Tianlan Empire arrives here, then we will face endless pursuit. Speaking of which, Elena couldn't help but have a cold war. Thinking that if the Yanlong Legion had not captured the Senna King City before the reinforcements of the Tianlan Empire arrived, then the Yanlong Legion would have fallen into a state of no return.
However, compared to Elena's panic at this time, Li Yi seemed very calm.
Shaking his head with a smile, Li Yi looked at Elena and continued to speak: "This is the key, everyone will think so, if the Yanlong Legion does not capture the Senna King City before the army of the Tianlan Empire leaves here this time, then it will inevitably suffer the thunderous revenge of the Tianlan Empire." But why don't you think about it, isn't this an opportunity for the Yanlong Legion? ”
"What do you mean? How could it be our chance. Once we can't capture the Seine King City, then when the army of the Tianlan Empire arrives at the Seine King City, we can only retreat to the southern border of Said. However, there is no fortress as strong as the Senna Royal City, and at that time, what will we rely on to resist the conquest of the million-strong army of the Tianlan Empire? Unable to figure out why Li Yi said that, Elena sorted out her thoughts and said dejectedly.
"Who said that as long as the Tianlan Empire launches a crusade against us, the Yanlong Legion will definitely have no chance at all. Didn't I say it before, that old-timer came up with a very clever plan. As long as we can use it properly, it doesn't necessarily mean that there are no opportunities. Until now, Li Yi still said with a smile on his face.
"Is that the so-called drag you were talking about? How to delay, is it delaying time? Now we can't even catch up in a hurry, how can we afford to delay? Although Li Yi was still full of confidence, Elena said helplessly.
"Hehe, alas, maybe it's because that old-timer is an outsider, so he can see things so thoroughly. Elena, let me ask you, if you are the ruler of the Tianlan Empire, when facing the attack of the Yanlong Legion, you first held on to the fiercest offensive of the Yanlong Legion, and then you mobilized a million troops to hoard on the border. At this time, will you hate the Yanlong Legion to the extreme, especially if you clearly know that the Yanlong Legion has an irresolvable hatred with you. At this time, once you use troops against the Yanlong Legion, do you want to completely destroy the Yanlong Legion and not leave a chance for the Yanlong Legion. Leave not a single soldier, not a single piece of land? Staring at Elena, Li Yi said mercilessly about what might happen in the future.
Although she knew that Li Yi was kindly helping herself, after hearing Li Yi talk about the situation that the Yanlong Legion might face in the future, Elena couldn't help but look at Li Yi with a sad face, and then said to Li Yi with a little sadness and indignation: "Yes, if I were the king of the Tianlan Empire, I would definitely not stay after facing the provocation of the Yanlong Legion." If I can't wipe out all of the Yanlong Legions, I won't collect my troops. General Li Yi, I don't know my answer, are you satisfied? ”
Li Yi, who was originally talking to Elena about the strategy that Hans had taught him before leaving, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Elena's sudden change in tone. After seeing Elena's complaint, Li Yi knew that maybe it was his ruthless words just now that angered Elena, which made this little beauty look a little angry.
Touching his nose in embarrassment, Li Yi said helplessly: "I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness the little princess, Li Mouren didn't mean anything else, just talking about things." ”
Seeing that her sister was so rude at this time, Bettina immediately said to Li Yi: "General Li Yi, don't be surprised, my sister is just too anxious to do this." I just hope that you can quickly explain to me the plan that the old man told me, so that we can rest easy. ”
Hearing Bettina say this, Li Yi also readjusted his thinking, no longer doing any foreshadowing, but said straight to the point: "That old-timer said that although the Tianlan Empire is strong, after all, it must always be on guard, and on the other side of the empire, the Atlantan Empire is eyeing it. Therefore, the forces that the Tianlan Empire can really mobilize to fight against the Yanlong Legion can only be one million at most. Mobilizing an army of millions is also a very risky thing for the Tianlan Empire. And it was because the Tianlan Empire had taken a huge risk to mobilize such a huge number of troops, so when they used troops against the Yanlong Legion, they must have thought of fully occupying the southern border of Sai and making this place truly the territory of the Tianlan Empire. It's just that in this way, the Tianlan Empire will face a very difficult test. That is, if they want to fully occupy the southern border of Said, they will inevitably stretch the battle line extremely long. The battle line was stretched, and the Yanlong Legion had a chance to fight back. ”
Hearing Li Yi say this, Elena, who was already a little angry, couldn't help but light up. As a genius military advisor who has been advising the Yanlong Legion for many years, Elena's own intelligence is also very outstanding. When listening to Li Yi talk about the issue of the front, Elena also began to understand the meaning of Li Yi's words to some extent.
At this time, Elena also forgot the anger she had shown towards Li Yi before, and before Li Yi could finish speaking, Elena immediately asked: "Could it be that the old man said that the delay means that we have to drag the battle line of the Tianlan Empire as long as possible?" The battle line has been stretched, and they will inevitably divide their troops to defend them, after all, those cities will be the territory of the Tianlan Empire in the future. And when the battle line becomes very long, it will become very difficult for them to replenish. That way, we can also fight the idea of their rear supplies, right? ”
Seeing that Elena finally comprehended her intentions, Li Yi couldn't help but glance at Elena with appreciation, and then said with a smile: "That's right, although the southern realm of Sayi is not so vast compared to the current Tianlan Empire. But after all, there are five provinces in the southern border of Said. With such a large area and so many cities, it is impossible for the Tianlan Empire not to send troops to defend it after capturing the territory of the southern border of Said. As long as they divide their troops, the Yanlong Legion will have a chance to break through one by one. And you also thought of the idea that we can also fight their rear supplies. ”
"Well, go on. So how exactly should we implement it, although this strategy is good, it is also more difficult to implement. At this time, Elena became more and more excited the more she listened, so she was now eager to know what the old-timer who could think of this said to Li Yi.
"This strategy is actually to seek wealth and nobility in danger, if we do this, it is equivalent to pushing the Yanlong Legion to a desperate situation that can no longer be extinct. So, in order for the whole project to be successful, we have to act with all our strength from the very beginning. Li Yi said lightly.
"How?" Elena asked eagerly.
"First of all, when we attack the Seine King this time, we don't think that we can actually attack it. Because you saw it, and it's too difficult to take it. But we can't just give up because of difficulties. Now that we know that the Tianlan Empire will send reinforcements, we must show our confidence in the Seine King City before their reinforcements arrive. As long as the reinforcements of the Tianlan Empire do not arrive, our offensive will not stop for a day. It is not until the opposing army has converged that we can choose to retreat. Li Yi relayed to Elena as he recalled what Hans had said to him.
"Well, that's right. If we retreat early, the Tianlan Empire will inevitably perceive that we have other plans. If you retreat too late, you will face great danger again. Only when the other side's reinforcements have just arrived, choose to retreat, so that it is most correct. Hearing this, Elena commented very approvingly.
"Well, exactly. After the arrival of reinforcements, we began to retreat, showing that we were afraid of the opponent's strength, creating a false impression that the Yanlong Legion had been frightened. Li Yi continued to relay to Elena according to Hans's words.
"After that, even if we do this, it won't be enough to deal them a fatal blow in the future." Hearing this, Elena couldn't comprehend Li Yi's intentions again, so she asked patiently.
"After that, we have to fight and retreat, and we have to fight the enemy as we retreat, but we must choose to fight where we can defend. After defending for a while, he continued to retreat. Don't give the Tianlan Empire's army a chance to encircle us, and don't give the Tianlan Empire a chance to fight a decisive battle. dragged on like this, until the other party began to be impatient and wanted to fight us, and then we could choose to fight back. Although he also didn't understand Hans's intentions, Li Yi still relayed it to Elena very carefully according to Hans's meaning.
But Li Yi can't figure it out, it doesn't mean that Elena can't figure it out either. Hearing this, Elena was finally able to figure out the true intention of this strategy.
"Hehe, I see, I finally get it. Li Yi, it's really not easy for the old-timers who came up with this clever plan for you. After figuring it out, Elena said in a good mood.
"Oh? Hehe, you figured it out. I'm not afraid of your jokes, although I have known this strategy for a long time, but I really can't figure out the beauty of it. Now that you've figured it out, I wonder if you can explain it to me. Hearing Elena say this, Li Yi also asked with a smile. After all, Li Yi also wanted to find out what was so good about the strategy that Hans taught him.
This strategy is actually a psychological warfare. The Tianlan Empire, as the most powerful empire on the Shengyuan Continent now, whether it is their empire, their officers, or even their ordinary soldiers, they all have an indelible superiority in their hearts. This time, although it was our Yanlong Legion that took the initiative to jump into the war, in their hearts, they never regarded our Yanlong Legion as a level opponent. And as soon as we show signs of cowardice, they become even more arrogant. They will think that our Yanlong Legion is nothing more than a jumping clown, so when they see us retreating, they will definitely chase after us with all their might. But we fought and retreated, not giving them a chance to fight. In this way, they will despise us even more in their hearts, thinking that we are already at the end of the crossbow. After dividing their forces to defend the cities they have already occupied, they will be even more eager to fight us in a decisive war. The purpose is to completely annihilate our Yanlong Legion in one battle, so that we can be removed from the Shengyuan Continent from now on. In this way, they can take advantage of their contempt for us, and when the opponent's forces have been weakened a lot, they can pick the best time and the most favorable terrain for us, and have the most crucial decisive battle with the Tianlan Empire. The more Elena spoke, the more excited she became, although what she said had not really happened yet, but looking at Elena's expression now, it was as if it had really happened.
"Hehe, that's what the old man said. If we repeatedly show weakness, it will make the people of the Tianlan Empire become constantly arrogant. As long as we can find the best chance of a decisive battle in the end, then maybe the Yanlong Legion can really win the final victory. Looking at Sister Bettina, Li Yi also said with a smile.
After listening to Li Yi's story, Elena and Bettina finally found a solution to the dilemma in front of them. And if all this can really be implemented successfully, then the Yanlong Legion wants to defeat the Tianlan Empire, and it is no longer empty talk.
After being excited for a while, Elena finally regained her confidence and stood up from her seat suddenly, Elena said with a resolute face: "Since this is the case, then let's start acting seriously." Tomorrow's siege battle, continue. ”
When the Yanlong Legion reorganized its army and began to launch a new wave of offensive against the Seine King City, the defenders in the Seine King City all found a problem, that is, although the Yanlong Legion's offensive was not as fierce as it was on the first day, it made the defenders of the Seine King City more difficult to resist.
