Hearing that there were a total of 28,000 soldiers and horses in Sauron, and compared to the 26,000 soldiers in Saran on his side, Zhao Yu felt that it seemed to be evenly matched.

"If you look at it this way, we don't have to be the weaker side!At least in terms of the number of soldiers, we can still fight!" Zhao Yu began to grab his head continuously.

"Okay! Now I think you should have a complete understanding of what strength the enemy has!" Shen Mengting suddenly spoke, her hands were still behind her back, and she straightened her chest by the way, "Actually, the number is not much, but ......"

She was a little ready to speak, and her throat seemed to be holding her breath! She pondered whether if she told the truth, whether it would hit the current morale of the army.

Twenty-eight thousand versus twenty-six thousand, which at first glance seems to be a very close number. But if you really want to think about it, just because Sauron soldiers only used 4,000 soldiers, and almost overturned Saran, who surpassed him by several times the number of his own, you can know how strong the quality of Sauron's soldiers is!

Therefore, even in the case of a relatively balanced number, Saran's side is still full of weaknesses!

The regent of Lin Mingyuan knew what Shen Mengting wanted to express, so he went to stop it in time, "Mengting! Marshal Shen! I don't think the number of enemies is the most important. The thorny problem we are facing now should be how to deal with the surprise attack of the Sauron Empire!"

Lin Mingyuan was to the point, and most of the people in the room drew their eyes to the old regent.

"The Lord Regent is right! Not only are the enemies numerous, but even the entire battlefield situation, they are firmly in the driver's seat!" Ma Liming raised his head and took a deep breath, "If they still want to play a sneak attack like they did yesterday." How do we defend ourselves?"

The deputy marshal's words caused a slight silence on the scene. However, this silence was soon broken by the hippie smiling Qian Hao.

"Don't worry about this! Since we can withstand one of their sneak attacks, there will naturally be a second, or even a third! Ha! Are you right?" Qian Hao was talking excitedly, and his hippie smile touched everyone around him by the way.

But it didn't take long for Shen Mengting's angry voice to follow, "Qian Hao, you probably don't know the current situation!" Her two chaotic eyes had a tepid anger value, "There are two reasons why we were able to resist the enemy's sneak attack before. First, it is because we have an absolute advantage in numbers, and it is precisely because of this advantage that we did not quickly collapse. ”

After a slight pause, Shen Mengting was also able to exchange breaths, "Second, it's because of the appearance of reinforcements." They just messed up Sauron's sneak cavalry, and then we launched a big counterattack! But if Sauron does it again, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to resist it!"

Shen Mengting's words can be said to have been directly inserted into Qian Hao's chest, causing him to twitch his lower body first, and he no longer dared to speak.

"And I have something more worried!" Lin Mingyuan put on a sad look. The movement he had made this time seemed to be louder and more obvious than all the previous ones. He stood up and came to Shen Mengting's side, and also looked at the table in the center of the room with his neck stretched, "Regarding yesterday's raid, although it was sudden in time, it was too pure in terms of purpose!"

"Hmm, what does Uncle Lin mean?"

"Mengting! look!" Lin Mingyuan pointed to the location of the Sauron military camp on the table, "They are stationed not far from here! The enemy's marshal also has a clear purpose, hoping to use a surprise attack to defeat Saran's living defenses! But although this idea is deadly, it has not yet reached the point of being caught off guard!"

Shen Mengting carefully analyzed the regent's words, and even frowned, "So...... Uncle means ......"

"What do you think, if they are going to play a sneak attack, will they just send a small detachment of cavalry to deal a fatal blow to us, like yesterday's remake?" Lin Mingyuan's neck was turning, and his vision almost encompassed the shrinkage of the entire table.

"This should ...... It's impossible!" Chen Tianhao moved his mouth to respond, "After yesterday's failed raid, I heard that the war horses in Sauron's military camp have been lost. They no longer have the ability to carry out surprise attacks, and it is difficult to even march extremely fast!"

Lin Mingyuan began to nod his head non-stop, "Oh?

"Does that mean they won't do another sneak attack?" said Ma Liming lay one hand across his chest and the elbow of the other arm against the back of his hand. Of course, he did this for one purpose, and that was to be able to touch his chin freely, "But if they don't sneak attack, what will they do?"

"Of course, it's like an ordinary marching battle, open a formation to fight us well!" Shen Jun roared disdainfully.

However, Shen Mengting immediately denied such an opinion, "No! No! The people of Sauron are extremely cunning. Although the quality of each of them is very strong, even if they have a formal duel, they can defeat the armies of most countries. But...... But they are not the kind of people who are above board. They will surely win their victory by any means!"

Shen Mengting said it with extreme determination, and there was no lack of disdain in her tone. However, what she just said was not all her thoughts. Because she herself knows that there is never a word of fairness on the battlefield. If she can be given the conditions for victory, even if what she has to do is very inferior, she will also achieve the victory that belongs to their country after thinking for a while!

"That's right! The Sauronians will use any means to ensure their victory! There are only 'winners' and 'strong' in this country's heart, and other things such as the corresponding 'losers' and 'weak' will not exist in their hearts. In other words, they will do whatever it takes to win until the form of the country they want to build becomes!"

Lin Mingyuan's words were a little too profound, and Qian Hao and the others didn't understand it, but Shen Mengting knew very well what he wanted to express.

The Saurons have always presented themselves as leaders of the strong, and have never taken into account the thoughts of the weaker in the country, that is, the common people. They will only be leaders who will build the country the way they want it to be. Therefore, if the Sauron Empire were to annex Saran, it would be a catastrophe and a nightmare for the civilians of Saran.

"Mengting! What I'm worried about is no longer their sneak attack on our military camp, but a more terrible situation, that is, whether they will target the sneak attack in other areas. General Chen Tianhao has already said just now that they have lost many war horses for sneak attacks, but this does not mean that they will not make any more small moves. If they choose to go around our barracks and sneak attack other places, then for us, it will be really unprepared!"

"Ahh......h

"Lord Regent Lin, what are the other targets of the sneak attack, and where else can they sneak attack besides our military camp?" Ma Liming also asked quickly.

Lin Mingyuan lowered his head and sighed, "It's not that without the war horse, the Sauron side can't sneak attack." If they choose a more terrifying sneak target, they don't need the blessing of the war horse at all. But the speed of the march is never the most important criterion for a sneak attack! For a 'sneak attack,' it is often a surprise! So! I think they should find a more terrible and deadly target for a sneak attack!"

"That'...... So what is that?"

With Shen Mengting's question, everyone present also locked their eyes on the elderly regent.

"I guess...... Sauron's army may have their targets ...... You know, even if there are no war horses, the Sauron army can still bypass us and sneak attack our rear!" Lin Mingyuan's gaze was extremely sharp, "In fact, to put it more colloquially, it is to go straight to our rear retreat and completely cut off our connection with the country, so as to force us to surrender!"

"Ahh......h Is this possible?" Qian Hao showed an incredulous face, "bypass the military camp on our side and go directly to attack some towns a few kilometers away from ......the rear! How much risk is that?"

"And if they do, won't we cut off the supplies?" Chen Tianhao seemed to question.

"No! it's still possible!" But Shen Mengting unexpectedly agreed with that opinion, "Sauron's army can't be inferred by common sense. You know, they're the most powerful army in the whole of Celos!And as for supplies, if they sneak up fast and ruthless enough, they can definitely capture some towns before the supplies they bring are consumed. For example, Fukui Town and the like. ”

Shen Mengting's words put everyone in a state of extreme shock. It is risky enough to bypass the existing threat and sneak up on its large rear, and it is not enough to march several kilometers to attack some important town behind the enemy.

However, Ma Liming and Wang Bin, who had rich combat experience at the scene, agreed in unison. These two men had been in contact with Sauron's army decades ago, so they knew how powerful they were!

"I think it's also possible! When the Sauron Empire was fighting against the Changzhong Empire, it used the battle plan of going around to the rear and sneaking into the enemy's rear, and the result was an unexpected victory! This war also kicked off Sauron's annexation of the rest of the four human kingdoms!"

The 'Changzhong Empire' in Ma Liming's mouth was also a country founded by human beings. It was because of its light that it was defeated by Sauron, and finally the entire country was annexed.

After this battle, the Sauron Empire has officially come to the forefront of world power.

"That's right! Underestimating the Sauron Empire is incurring destruction!" Shen Mengting began to pace uneasily, she didn't even seem to be able to calm down, "And judging from the border handover between Saran and Sauron, the enemy seems to be very capable of using the plan of sneaking around the rear to attack!"

When Shen Mengting's words fell, she stopped in front of the top table in the room. She did this because there was a map of the two countries.

She walked up to the map, raised her hand and prepared to gesture on it, "You might as well look at it this way!" she seemed to elaborate on what she was going to do.

Seeing this, the others all stood up one after another and made contact with Shen Mengting's location.

Zhao Yu originally wanted to wander outside, but when he saw that even Qian Hao and Shen Jun had stood up and moved over there, he naturally couldn't continue to sit still.

So, after cursing his neck and swallowing his saliva, he also slowly stood up. He observed his companion, who had already turned into a back state, and walked towards the side with his head down.

In this way, the style of the people in the house has changed from doing their own thing to surrounding Shen Mengting. But exactly, they should all be gathered in front of that map.

"You've all seen it! our border with Sauron in Saran is really peculiar!"

Following what Shen Mengting said, Zhao Yu also looked at the map between the shoulders of the crowd. It is said that this is also the first time he has seen the whole picture of East Asian antiquity.

The territory of the Sauron Empire is really very large, and it seems that it is dozens of times the size of Saran. Compared with the gap in national territory, the contact border between the two countries can be said to be even more bizarre.

The Sauron Empire was almost like it was going to eat Saran, almost encompassing most of Saran's borders. Even Zhao Yu still had the illusion that Sauron seemed to have swallowed Saran to his mouth.

"Wow! This border is really peculiar, as if Saran is in Sauron's body!" Qian Hao couldn't help but feel a feeling.

"It's almost a state of semi-encirclement!Saran's border is out of contact with Sauron, and there is probably only a sea area to the east!" Shen Jun was also shaking his head.

"But then again, who drew this border in the first place?

"Regarding the issue of the border, it is estimated that it will follow the Shenzhou Empire for hundreds of years. But now is not the time to focus on this!" Shen Mengting tapped on the map with her hand again. Then, she just turned around and faced everyone. But even so, her hand was still on the map, "Have you all noticed a phenomenon now?"

Shen Mengting suddenly asked a question, which inevitably made everyone fall into a state of contemplation. However, this kind of problem will not stump Ma Liming and Wang Bin, both of whom have rich experience in marching and fighting.

"Marshal Shen, do you mean the border line is too narrow and long?" Wang Bin rolled his eyes.

"Yes, yes, I roughly estimate that the border is too long, which is not a good sign!"

"But what does it mean that the border is too long?" Qian Hao asked puzzled. There was still a lot of doubt in his eyes, as if those two eyeballs were about to pop out.

Shen Mengting twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, which caused her mouth to be crooked into a facial paralysis, "Qian Hao, don't you notice the fact? The soldiers are mobile, although they are stationed not far from here. But that doesn't mean they will choose to attack on this side. Just look for a random spot on the border and they can almost set foot on our soil!"

"Well, that's right, our border with Sauron is hardly separated by mountains or rivers. Except for a large dense forest to the north, all that is a stream that is about to dry up is all there is!" Vice Marshal Ma Liming immediately picked up his words.

Qian Hao couldn't help but blink his eyes quickly after hearing this, and his mind was already filled with surprise.

"Even if the dense forest to the north is removed, about three-quarters of the border is still exposed! And that stream is basically unblocked! So Sauron can enter our territory at will without seeing it!" General Wang Bin was also full of uneasiness.

"And once they randomly chose a point on the border and quickly rushed into our territory. We may ...... I probably don't know it at all!" Chen Tianhao sharply pointed to the huge map hanging in front of him.

"That's what I'm worried about, because the longer the border, the more land we expose. The enemy can choose any point to attack our land without even knowing it! This is very, very scary!"

Corresponding to what Shen Mengting said, almost everyone present was already thinking in their minds that the Sauron army had found a certain point in the border and rushed into the fate of Saran territory. Although they all found different points, there was only one end in the end: Sauron's army bypassed the Yokoga military camp here without knowing it, and entered the territory of Saran.

"After that, no matter where Sauron wants to sneak up in the future, but at least there will be a crisis for our army! because it means that they will also go around our rear!" Shen Mengting put forward a hypothesis.

"So we definitely can't let them enter our land at will!" said Lin Mingyuan, the regent, his head still in a slightly uninterrupted state.

"So what the hell are we going to do?" Shen Jun stretched out an arm, and he slid in front of him like a palm.

"Wow!Shen Jun!Your action really has an intellectual tendency!" Qian Hao sneered uncontrollably when he saw this.

Shen Jun took this sentence into his ears, and he quickly replied, "Cut! What do you want to say from this brute!"

Shen Mengting's anger was suffocated to her chest again. She knew that if she didn't stop their 'awkward' behavior, they would continue to laugh at each other like foul language.
