When he first heard Shen Mengting's words, Zhao Yu thought that his ears were wrong.

"Just give up the border?" Zhao Yu kept muttering. Although he knows nothing about military affairs, if a country's borders are no longer secure, he still has some bottom in his mind about what it means.

If the border is abandoned, won't that provide an opportunity for Sauron's invading army? Zhao Yu's eyes widened. Intuitively looked at Shen Mengting.

And like Zhao Yu, almost all the people around him also showed stunned expressions. Especially the person named Zhou Zhi Regent, his face was almost completely red.

"Huh? What? you...... What did you just say?Just give up the border?Are you going to let our country be destroyed?" The regent of Zhou Zhi seemed to be extremely annoyed, and his two fists were clenched.

But Shen Mengting nodded very calmly, "Yes! Yes, yes, just give up the border." That's what I'm proposing, do you all have an opinion?"

It was a rough wait-and-see look, but it didn't get anyone's approval, even if it was Qian Hao, who was a close confidant.

"Hah, are you a woman whimsical? Everyone else is focused on the border, but you want to abandon the border in the opposite way?" continued the regent of Zhou Zhi.

"The reason for this is very obvious. It's not that I'm going to give up the border, it's a last resort. We simply can't let the borders stay peaceful. Therefore, it is better to be more radical and give up altogether. Shen Mengting waved her arm casually.

"Heh! You're right, and if Sauron's army suddenly goes around the back of our camp and outflanks us, how are we going to deal with it?" the regent of Zhou Zhi sneered.

"I've made this very clear just now – it's to take the initiative. ”

"Take the initiative?ah? How are you going to take the initiative to attack?" Zhou Zhi's face was already completely flushed, because his mouth was constantly opening and closing, so that the oily teeth inside him were constantly revealed.

"It is to lure their army into the territory of our country. Shen Mengting's tone was almost like announcing something, and it could be expected that every word she said was also revealed to everyone.

Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion in the council hall, and most people's expressions were still in an extremely discolorated state.

"Hungry! Hehe! Marshal Shen Mengting! You are quite clever in what you say! You still have come up with such a plan to lure the enemy's army into our national territory. The corners of Zhou Zhi's mouth kept twitching, as if he was cramping.

"Why can't you think of it?" Shen Mengting spread her hands indifferently, "Since you can't guarantee the safety of the border, it's better to let them in." Let Sauron's army step on our soil, so to speak, the main battle. Why not?"

"You're taking it for granted!"

"No, Regent, I didn't take it for granted. Lure them to our national territory, and then take the initiative to fight a decisive battle. Shen Mengting suddenly raised a hand. Her hand was still open one second before the gesture, but in the next moment, she clenched her hand into a fist in an instant, "Only then can we defeat the mighty Sauron army and defeat that Lian Yunpo." ”

Shen Mengting's appearance looked really firm, probably because of the excitement of her words, and there were a few traces of unknown bruises on her forehead and cheeks.

"Marshal Shen! I see what you mean. But...... You just said that you took the initiative, and how should we take the initiative to attack?" asked Lieutenant Marshal Ma Liming uneasily, and he was also intent on suppressing the intention of the generalissimo and the regent to quarrel.

"About this ......" Shen Mengting began to walk deeper into the room, and the target she wanted to move around was the marshal's table and chair.

It was meant to sit for her, and no one else could sit down as if they were up to it.

"Actually, I have a detailed plan in my heart, but it's just ......" Shen Mengting was a little eager to speak, and it could be seen that she was still relatively unconfident at present.

"Oh, what kind of strategy?" Qian Hao took a few steps forward, and looked at Shen Mengting in four eyes.

"Generalissimo, if you have any thoughts in your heart, please let us know them!" General Wang Bin also raised his hand and greeted him a few times.

At present, except for the regent of Zhou Zhi, whose face is still in a tense state, the rest of the people are all looking like they are going to listen carefully.

Shen Mengting walked to the marshal's table and chair that belonged to her, but surprisingly did not choose to sit down. She just put her hands behind her back and started walking back and forth.

"Don't blame me for fooling around, but in the current situation, I don't think we can afford to sit idly by. ”

"What does Marshal Shen think?" Ma Liming respectfully made a gesture of bowing with his fists in court.

"The current situation is really very critical, and I believe that if the Sauron Empire strikes again next time, we don't expect to be able to rely on some luck to avoid the invasion so easily. Therefore, I think that instead of being passive all the time, it is better to take the initiative to attack, so as to catch the Sauron Empire off guard. Do you think I'm right?"

Marshal Shen Mengting seems to have made some sense, and it is indeed not a good strategy to guard the border in fear.

"Then what kind of strategy does the generalissimo want to use? You just said that there is a strategy to take the initiative?" General Wang Bin asked again, and his held palm was never put down.

"The strategy I'm talking about is ......" Shen Mengting first took a deep breath, and then turned around. She looked at the large upright map behind her, "Let's all take a look! Now the location of our Yokoga military camp is here, right?"

She calmly found the location of the 'Yokoga Barracks' on the map. However, the fingertips only stayed in place for a short moment before she shifted them to the left. The place she was looking for was the location of the military camp where the Sauron Empire was stationed, "And Sauron's military camp is here." ”

Then a light cough sounded again, and Shen Mengting's index finger touched the map, and began to slide continuously, "So, the area where we fought against Sauron is in this place." She piggybacked near the barracks and drew a circle.

Zhao Yu looked at the map fixedly, and the surrounding scenes also appeared in his mind. The fact is that as Shen Mengting said, if the next time the Sauron Empire attacks, unless there are other tricks, such as choosing a detour or something like that, the battlefield must be in the area that Shen Mengting circled just now.

"Yes, it's an area, but ...... What does marshal mean?" Vice Marshal Ma Liming craned his neck, his gaze on the map for a moment.

"What I mean by that is...... Abandon this area and withdraw our troops from Yokoga Barracks. Shen Mengting lowered her head and said casually.

To be honest, what she said was very shocking, but the tone of her tone was unusually indifferent.

But the subordinates who listened to the information were not so calm, and they all showed extremely surprised faces in an instant.

"Huh...... What? Big ...... Generalissimo...... You...... You ......" General Wang Bin looked stunned, and his mouth seemed to be about to close.

"Marshal Shen! What did you just say...... Also...... It's too ......."

"I know! My idea is extreme, but because it is an extreme method, sometimes you can get unexpected gains. ”

"Hmph! That's a nice thing to say. What unexpected gains do you want, but in fact you are putting our army in an extremely dangerous situation! You are gambling with the lives of the soldiers!"

But Shen Mengting didn't pay attention to it, she rolled her eyes casually, and directly told her thoughts, "The reason for giving up this area is the same as giving up the border. We can't defend it at all, and instead of worrying about whether the enemy will take it out, it's better to just give it up. We need to shrink the front in order to achieve our military objectives. ”

"And what is your specific purpose, Generalissimo?"

"The specific purpose is ......" Shen Mengting raised one arm again, and her fingers quickly touched the map behind her, "When our army moves back, what do you think Sauron's army will think?"

As if she was trying her best to provoke something, Shen Mengting showed a smile that was fascinating.

Everyone felt a little stupid when asked, and in the end, Chen Tianhao, who was mostly silent, told the answer, "If we retreat, Sauron's army should move forward quickly! After all, they won't give up any success." ”

General Chen Tianhao is right. Shen Mengting snapped her fingers suddenly, but she did it with her non-dominant left hand. Her customary right hand was still on the map, "As we retreat, the enemy will surely move forward." In that case, it would be tantamount to going deep into our land. ”

"Does Marshal Shen mean to lure Sauron's army into the depths of our territory, and then go to battle?"

"Marshal Ma Liming, you are right, that's what I think. Shen Mengting crooked her mouth and showed a smile of remembrance, "Only by luring the enemy in can you completely defeat them." Otherwise, even if we win a few more small wars, it will be meaningless. ”

"So, Marshal Shen Mengting, what you want to express in the end is to give up the border and certain territories in exchange for the depth of Sauron's army. Then, we suddenly turned around and attacked and crushed them completely. Marshal Shen, that's what you want to express?" General Ma Liming asked again carefully, as if he was making a final summary.

"Yes! But...... You're only half right. Shen Mengting's smile continued, and her mouth seemed to be crooked forever. She began to take steps, closing the distance between herself and the others, "It's not just about stepping back and attacking. Think about it, why did I lead Sauron's army deep into our land, and there was another important reason besides shrinking the front and leading the enemy to my advantage. ”

"What's the important reason?"

Shen Mengting's smile finally retracted, but the excitement on her whole face was still somewhat maintained, "What is the most important thing in marching and fighting? It is supplies, I am right! If Sauron's army penetrates in, it means that their battle line will be very long." At that point, there will be problems with their supplies. When an army has a supply problem, their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced. So, when that time comes, it's time for our Sara army to show its talents. ”

With Shen Mengting's words, many generals also showed excited expressions. At least judging by what the marshal meant, that was not a good idea.

But there are also extremely resistant ones, and the regent of Zhou Zhi is a representative. He still bared his teeth with a very disdainful look, as if he was listening to a joke.

"Hungry, hehe!" Another yin and yang weird laughter, and the regent of Zhou Zhi directly spewed out embarrassed words, "Marshal Shen Mengting! What you just said was so wonderful that you ignored my questioning." ”

"I'm sorry, great Zhou Zhi Regent, I, Shen Mengting, will respond to those normal doubts at this moment. But if it's someone who insists on raising the bar, I won't respond at all. Shen Mengting narrowed her eyes and looked at Zhou Zhi tightly.

The regent of Zhou Zhi coughed and smiled again, "Ahhhhh

"I don't dare to be disrespectful to the regent, but if you want to question it, you must come up with a corresponding reason!"

"My reasons are very obvious. The regent of Zhou Zhi shook his arm sharply, and then walked back and forth quickly, "It's very good that you think of it for thousands of years." But have you forgotten who are currently commanding the 70,000 Sauron troops?" Zhou Zhi pointed to the right aggressively, although the target was the air, but the meaning was indeed directed at those Sauron commanders, "They are old fritters who have fought all their lives! Especially that Lian Yunpo, he has rich combat experience, how can you deceive him?"
