Chapter 541 Sheep Intestine Trail Strategy

"My lord, the White Lotus Sect has indeed planted a team of about 3,000 people in the section of the sheep intestine trail near the south of Lingnan County, and the last general and Ding Sanlin have combined it slightly, it is not very easy to take down this White Lotus Sect army." Fang Butong walked quickly in front of Shen Yan and used a tree branch to roughly draw the ambush place of the White Lotus Sect soldiers and the general terrain around it.

"The White Lotus Sect's troop formation does have some doorways, and it has also chosen a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is indeed not easy to take down this group of White Lotus Sect soldiers. However, we are already difficult to ride a tiger at the moment, and only after taking down this group of White Lotus Sect soldiers can we implement our strategy and tactics, otherwise, we can only become a turtle in the urn and be served by the White Lotus Sect. Shen Yan stared at the topographic map drawn by Fang Butong, with some seriousness written on his face, and quickly thought about countermeasures in his mind.

A hard attack, definitely not, such casualties are too great, the foundation of the Great Xia Royal Army is not strong in the first place, and losing any soldier is a huge loss for Shen Yan.

If you don't take a hard attack, but the deployment of the White Lotus Sect makes it clear that you don't give yourself any chance, how can you get the biggest victory at the minimum cost? Shen Yan slowly paced in place, his eyes revealing a hint of deep thought.

"My lord, can we attack from the side?" Pei Xiangdong's eyes stared at Fang Butong's sketch, and a touch of deep thought also appeared in his eyes, this is a hurdle stuck in front of the eyes of the Great Xia Royal Army, only if you successfully step over, can you have the strategy and tactics behind, if even this hurdle is passed, it can only be said that the Great Xia Royal Army will become a thing of the past.

"Attacking from the side?" Hearing Pei Xiangdong's words, Shen Yan muttered softly behind him, a hint of contemplation flashed in his eyes, thinking about the difference between the side attack and the frontal attack, as well as the pros and cons.

"My lord, although there is also a great risk in attacking from the side, relatively speaking, the loss is much smaller than that of a frontal attack, we have no way to retreat, we must take down this group of White Lotus Sect soldiers, otherwise, once the White Lotus Sect learns of our whereabouts, it adopts the strategy of blocking back and forth, and we have no hope of escaping." Pei Xiangdong saw a trace of hesitation flashing in Shen Yan's eyes, and there was a faint anxiety in his eyes, time is a very precious thing for himself and others, once the whereabouts of himself and others are exposed, he and others will fall into a situation where it is difficult to move an inch.

"Attacking from the flanks is also a strategy, but this casualty is still very large, our foundation is very weak, and casualty of any brother is a huge loss for us, so if we can't lose, we won't lose." Shen Yan understood Pei Xiangdong's thoughts, as a general, how could he command a war without casualties, but Shen Yan felt that it was still the most perfect result to achieve the greatest success at the lowest cost.

"My lord, although the last general does not know the strength of this White Lotus Sect soldier, but the last general feels that no matter what the strength of the enemy is, once faced with the offensive launched by us, the White Lotus Sect will definitely concentrate its forces to defend, of course, if the other party can eat us, it is the best choice, but if they can't eat us, then they will definitely hold their ground, and then ask the White Lotus Sect in Lingnan for help." A glimmer of light flashed in Qin Huai'an's eyes, and he looked at the gray sheep intestine trail in the distance, and said indifferently.

"What do you mean?" Hearing Qin Huai'an's words, a bright light flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, and he seemed to have caught some cores, but he didn't seem to have caught them.

"My lord, since there will be losses in both frontal and flank attacks, then simply attack both frontally and flanks at the same time, in this way, the White Lotus Sect will definitely take care of one and lose the other, and we will find a suitable fighter from it, so as to achieve the goal of destroying the White Lotus Sect army in front of us." Qin Huai'an's eyes flashed with a hint of indifferent confidence, looked at Shen Yan, and said loudly.

"You reminded me of this idea." After listening to Qin Huai'an's words, an indifferent smile appeared in Shen Yan's eyes, looked at the sheep intestine trail in the distance, and said slowly.

"Wei Chong'an, you lead the second team to the White Lotus Sect's ambush immediately, don't rush to launch an offensive, but do everything you can to attract the attention of the White Lotus Sect."

"My lord, is there a fight?" Hearing Shen Yan's arrangement, Wei Chongan's eyes flashed with excitement.

"No, if I don't succeed in the deployment later, you just play the role of scolding the battle, when the time is ripe, you have to give full play to your maximum combat power and bravely rush forward to the frontal White Lotus Sect." When Shen Yan heard Wei Chong'an's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, shook his head slightly, and said slowly.

"Ah, there's no fighting, oh no, my lord, when is the time ripe." The moment Wei Chongan heard Shen Yan say that there was no battle to fight, a touch of loss appeared in his eyes, and when he heard that he could bravely rush to kill in the back, a bright light appeared in his eyes, and he said loudly.

"I'll give you the flag then." Hearing Wei Chong'an's words, Shen Yan smiled indifferently and said slowly.

"Ju Mingxuan, you lead the third team to rush up from the side at the right time, remember to rush up with all your might, without any pause in between." Shen Yan pondered for a moment, his eyes swept from the faces of Pei Xiangdong, Zhu Mingxuan, Qin Huai'an and Guo Jinarc, and finally his eyes locked on Zhu Mingxuan's face, and said loudly.

"The last general commands." Zhu Mingxuan heard Shen Yan hand over the command to him to attack from the side, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes, with a hint of excitement.

"Fang Butong, you lead the special operations team, and when Wei Chong'an successfully attracts the attention of the White Lotus Sect, he immediately sneaks up from the side to buy enough time and fighters for Zhu Mingxuan's third team." Shen Yan understood Zhu Mingxuan's thoughts, so after seeing Zhu Mingxuan's expression, Shen Yan glanced at the other party and smiled indifferently, then looked at Fang Butong, and said loudly.

"The last general commands." Fang Butong replied loudly.

"My lord, what about our cavalry brigade?" Ding Sanlin heard that Fang Butong had another chance to fight, a faint sense of loss flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly asked.

"Ding Sanlin, you are from the cavalry brigade, do you think the cavalry can play a more important role in this sheep intestine path?" Hearing Ding Sanlin's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, his subordinates are not afraid of battle, and there is hope for battle.

"Don't worry, there will be a chance for your cavalry brigade to perform later, and entering the plain area will be the world of your cavalry brigade, and at that time, Fang Butong will only have the envy of them."
