Chapter 355: Blue Out of Blue

When it comes to Guo Zhiyuan's current status, he can't think about the problem as simple as ordinary soldiers of the New Army, he must consider the overall situation, such as this battle of defending the army, if only from a military point of view, Sun Zhiyong and they only repelled the attack of tens of thousands of pirates with the help of a group of civilians who have no military training at all, which is undoubtedly successful, but the pirate raid destroyed the achievements of the city building in the past few months, and also lost more than a dozen ships and goods, then from the overall situation, Guo Zhiyuan suffered a big loss this time.

What's worse is that unless Guo Zhiyuan can be sure that he can annihilate all these pirates and pirates at once, such sneak attacks will definitely happen frequently, and then Guo Zhiyuan's plan to develop Dongfan will basically come to naught, and the internal morale will also be hit hard, and the good situation that has been created with great difficulty will take a sharp turn for the worse!

Therefore, Guo Zhiyuan attached great importance to this matter, and recalled Shen Yourong and Shen Junrong, who had been training at sea with part of the New Army's sailors who were following Shen Yourong, and then summoned all the key members of the team to discuss how to deal with the crisis at this time.

Guo Zhiyuan first asked Sun Zhiyong to introduce to everyone the situation of the attack on the big man, Sun Zhiyong led the army alone for the first time this time, but in addition to being a little flustered at the beginning, he performed very well in the subsequent command of the battle, and he was also very brave, at this time his arm was still bandaged, but he himself felt very self-blame and guilt for this performance, and felt that he had betrayed Guo Zhiyuan's trust, and his fists were clenched when he introduced the situation to everyone, and his voice was a little trembling because of excitement.

After Sun Zhiyong finished introducing the situation, everyone had a more intuitive feeling of the grim situation, and they were a little silent for a while, Guo Zhiyuan glanced around at everyone, and finally stopped on Shen Yourong, who was sitting in a precarious position, Shen Yourong's current relationship with Guo Zhiyuan is a little delicate, nominally he is to be controlled by Guo Zhiyuan, but he has never clearly expressed his allegiance to Guo Zhiyuan, Guo Zhiyuan also knows that if he wants to hurry, he will not be able to reach it, and he only hopes that he can slowly integrate into his team, so he named him: "General Shen, you have the most right to speak here, Can you tell us what you think? ……”

Shen Yourong frowned slightly and said: "This question is indeed more tricky, now that the Japanese and pirates in the nearby waters have joined forces, we don't have enough warships, and if we want to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese at sea, we are not sure of victory, and with my understanding of the Japanese invaders, they will never give us the opportunity to fight a decisive battle with them at sea, most of them will still want to fight guerrillas with us like this sneak attack, if they draw all their troops out to sea to seek the opportunity to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese invaders, it may give them a chance to take advantage of it!" Therefore, the last general feels that it is not appropriate to act rashly for the time being, and can only wait for the fighter to appear! ……”

Shen Yourong's voice did not fall, "Bang! Hearing the sound of the table, Shen Junrong directly slapped the case and scolded: "How can we be shrinking turtles from the new army?!" Whoever kills me must pay with blood! This battle must be fought! ……”

Shen Junrong is the commander of the New Army, and all the soldiers of the New Army are trained in her hands, so she naturally has deep feelings, especially when she saw her father Shen Yourong's somewhat indifferent attitude, it stabbed her heart with a hidden pain, so she exploded immediately!

With Shen Yourong's character, no one dared to question him face-to-face, so as soon as he heard the sound of slapping the table, his eyebrows rose up, and his eyes swept over sharply, and when he saw that it was Shen Junrong, his expression froze, and his momentum relaxed, and he frowned and said: "The military aircraft is a big event, how can you be rash?!" ……”

The relationship between Shen Yourong and Shen Junrong, the father and daughter, is very delicate, it was a bit like they didn't get along with each other before, but now they are working under Guo Zhiyuan, and the relationship has eased, but the knot in the heart has not been opened, so Shen Junrong immediately retorted unceremoniously: "When the two armies meet, the brave wins, if you only know passive defense, how can you talk about victory?!" There is no such thing as retreat in the dictionary of the New Army, only offense is the best defense! ……”

If someone else was so stubborn with Shen Yourong, I was afraid that Shen Yourong would have been so angry that he would have killed someone, but it was his daughter who scolded him, and he had always felt guilty about Shen Junrong in his heart, so he had to say patiently: "The problem is that the Japanese will never give us the opportunity to fight them head-on!" ……”

Without waiting for Shen Yourong to finish speaking, Shen Junrong waved her hand vigorously and made a categorical movement, interrupting Shen Yourong's words and saying, "If there is no chance, then we will create a chance!" We must not let the pirates lead us by the nose, this battle must be fought! And it should be fought at our pace in our chosen battlefield! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan saw that Shen Yourong and Shen Junrong's father and daughter had already competed for the best taste, and he didn't want their already tense father-daughter relationship to become more tense because of this, so he hurriedly stood up and said: "General Shen, don't be impatient, it seems that Commander Shen already has a plan in his heart, we might as well listen to her plan first......

Shen Yourong snorted coldly and didn't say anything more, Shen Junrong didn't give in, and walked directly to the sand table on the side, this sand table was made by Guo Zhiyuan's skilled craftsmen, Shen Junrong was like a treasure when he saw it for the first time, and he would come to study it as soon as he was free.

Everyone also stood up one after another, and followed Shen Junrong to the sand table, Shen Junrong confidently said: "The timing of this sneak attack on the big man was very strange, it happened to be me and Shen... When the general led the fleet out on a cruise, it showed that they must have an eye on our side, so that they would be so aware of the movements of our army, so we can plan and release false news to create the illusion of an empty defense and lure the enemy to attack! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he vaguely guessed Shen Junrong's plan, but Shen Yourong felt that he had lost face by his daughter before, so he deliberately raised the bar and said, "So what?" Don't forget, we don't have enough warships, and even if you can lure them out for a decisive battle, we won't be able to encircle them in one fell swoop, and if we let them escape, it will be difficult to get them hooked, and it will lead to their crazy revenge! ……”

Shen Junrong smiled confidently and said, "So we have to choose a battlefield where they have nowhere to escape!" You see, this is the Great Minister, this is Beigang, and the decisive battlefield I chose for the Japanese Invaders is here--- Keelung! My plan is that we first station a heavy army in the big force to prevent the Japanese from sneaking up again, and then release the false news that a group of merchant ships loaded with valuable goods will anchor in Keelung Harbor to lure the Japanese to attack, and when the Japanese fleet is dispatched, I will lead the fleet from the big man to outflank them, as long as Lord Guo can drag the invading Japanese in Keelung, I am sure to wipe them out! ……”
