Le Ansen's headquarters was shabby, just a half-collapsed building, slightly obscured by an army-green canvas. Some of the black officers had gathered and waited for their arrival.

After Le Ansen and the others entered, all the black officers stood up and saluted. Le Anson waved his hand, "Sit down." Let me introduce you to these people from the Black Isle Military Company. Mr. Rick and his men have formed a military advisory group who will guide us out of our current predicament. ”

Lin Rui nodded, "Fortunately." But let's not waste time doing anything about the introduction. We would like to know what the current situation is. ”

General Le Anson nodded, and whispered to a black man beside him, "You can explain it." ”

"Yes, General. The black officer stood up, walked over to the map, and began to explain the current situation. It's okay if he doesn't talk about it, but after he finishes speaking, Lin Rui knows how bad the current situation of this rebel army is. The Orumi Federation forces had taken control of almost all of the south, and the rebels had been pinned down to the southernmost corner. Fortunately, they have not been completely defeated, but they are indeed powerless.

Lin Rui thought for a moment and said, "At present, how many of your personnel and armaments are there, I mean the personnel who can still participate in the battle." ”

"The total number of people is more than 5,000, and there are more than 4,000 people who can participate in the battle. This is all after the withdrawal of the other two guerrillas yesterday. On the armament side, we have some combat vehicles and light weapons and rocket launchers. The black officer replied, "Primarily supplies, which we are currently starting to strain." It's an oasis, but food is still scarce. We rely mainly on a few nearby towns for food, and since they were also attacked, the food supply has been significantly reduced. ”

The black officer pointed to the map and said, "Our current food and oil are mainly provided by the two local tribal forces that are still supporting us. But this situation did not last long. ”

"That's why the Orumi Federation Army didn't kill them all, they know that you are trapped here, and it won't be long before there is a shortage of food. And then it will fall apart. Jiang Jian said in a low voice. "In such a situation, they really don't need to do anything, just a simple wait, and you can surrender because you run out of supplies. ”

"We will not surrender, we would rather die in battle than surrender. A black officer shouted.

"Gentlemen, I admire your determination, but determination is not something to eat. Once you've been hungry for a few days, even if you want to fight with all your might, your body won't listen to you. Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Your biggest problem at the moment is to find a way to solve the supply problem as soon as possible. General Le Anson, how many towns are in your hands?"

"There are three or four more at the moment. But we were also cut off from each other. "They're all fighting on their own, and they could retreat at any moment." ”

Lin Rui looked at the map and said decisively, "This desert oasis can't last long, you must leave here immediately." Otherwise, when the surrounding towns are completely controlled, you will be a lone army trapped in the desert. ”

"But how to leave? The Orumi government forces are encircling us on a large scale, and if it were really that simple, we would not have retreated here step by step. A black officer frowned.

"That's right, that's the mentality. When you think there is no hope, so are your opponents. They would never have imagined that in such a situation, you would have a Jedi counterattack. Lin Rui paced back and forth, "To be honest, your number of people is limited, so you can only surprise you. in order to win some opportunities. ”

"Fight back? Do you want us to rush out again? If we do, we may not even be able to keep this last desert oasis. A black officer whispered.

Lin Rui said to Jiang An, "Actuaries, you give them the reason for doing this." ”

Shogishi nodded and walked to the map, "You're just guerrillas, so your understanding of war is still limited to small-scale operations. But the Orumi Federation has the support of the Secret Order behind it, a powerful military organization, and they are very professional. The same is true from the situation on this map. In addition to their superiority in numbers, they are also significantly superior to you in terms of tactics. By occupying several key towns, and then forming a local advantage over you, little by little you are forced into a Jedi. It didn't cost you much to lose most of the territory you had taken advantage of the chaos. ”

Le Ansen nodded, "That's true. ”

"The oasis we are in is not only a place to stay, but also the only way to escape to the southwest. In the eyes of the Order, you either have to flee and enter other countries. Either stick to this place and make a final insistence. They would never have imagined that you would dare to risk your death. Of course, they will definitely have precautions, but the main precautions are on your northern front, which is the key to suppressing your military strength. Shogishi looked at the map.

"Yes, they did block many of our main roads to the north and surrounding towns. The black officer nodded.

"It's a clever move, but it's also a flaw. Because they will not easily abandon the northern front, they will be relatively weak in other areas. If you look at the map, in a few towns on the northern line, your men have been defeated. The towns that are still under your control are concentrated in the east. This just shows that in these areas, their military strength is not very large. "Shokishi pointed to the mapway.

"This ...... It is possible that it is. The black officer nodded.

"Why?" asked Shogishi rhetorically.

"Because they simply don't believe that we will run away from there. Because if we plan to break through from there, we will be giving up the last way to escape behind us. Once this happens, they can copy our back path very smoothly. The black officer whispered.

"That's right, that's what they think. But that's just one of their habitual thinking, which is that you won't break through there. In military operations, everything is changing, and any rigid and fixed way of thinking can lead to failure. This is the opportunity you can take advantage of. Break through from the southeast and complete the convergence with your other guerrilla forces there. Then bypass their lines and intersperse into the rear of the Orumi Federation Army. Lin Rui took the pen from the black officer's hand and drew a line on the map.

"Either put it to death and live later, and survive in death!" Lin Rui turned his head to look at everyone, "Or just admit defeat." ”
