Feeling the imminent tension between the enemy and us, Gu Xiuyuan, Ruan Moxuan and Zhen Long were about to quarrel, Gu Xiuyuan and Kong Yikong advocated fighting steadily and focusing on defense. Lu Jianxing and Zhen Long suggested taking the initiative to attack and send troops to confront them head-on, while Pan Futian and Ruan Moxuan felt that they should dispatch the elite and destroy the siege equipment of the Japanese invaders.

The three parties have their own opinions, no one is willing to accommodate the other party, they all feel justified, seeing that the six people are about to fight, Luzhu Weng hurriedly came forward to play a round, in fact, Luzhu Weng's thoughts are inclined to Pan Futian and Ruan Moxuan, but at this juncture, he is not easy to say, so he can only coordinate a few people from it, hoping that they can calm down and think about it in the long run.

"Although the methods of the few of you are good, but with all due respect to Ling, in the current situation, those three methods are not applicable." Seeing that the six people were about to quarrel into a pot of porridge, Ling Xia finally spoke up, and after seeing that after he finished speaking, the six Gu Xiuyuan people were staring at him, and the eyes of several people were full of questions and incomprehension, and after a little groaning, Ling Xia explained in a deep voice:

"The enemy army is about to attack the city, and their goal is to conquer the eastern theater of operations, so blind passive defense will not work, you hold this wave and the next wave, there is no end at all. Although the defense is not good, but the offense is even worse, the reason is very simple, our strength is not as good as the enemy, there are many Japanese people, our side is weak, if we really meet the enemy head-on, we can't beat the other side.

Although the plan of General Phan and General Nguyen seemed feasible, the two of them overlooked one question, that is, how would our troops get close to those siege equipment? Although the catapult cannot damage us at close range, the opponent is equipped with a siege crossbow, which can attack from a medium to long range, and our soldiers will be shot into a sieve before they have time to get close to the enemy. ”

"That's not going to work, that's not going to work, so what do you say you should do? The enemy's siege troops are about to be assembled, so we can't do nothing, can we? Are we just standing here stunned, watching the enemy come to attack the city? Zhen Long's tone was a little anxious, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Ling Xia: "By the way, you haven't come up with an idea yet, hurry, you have a lot of ideas, hurry up and think of a way." ”

Zhen Long's words were recognized by everyone, and after his words fell, everyone looked at Ling Xia with a look of hope, wondering what strategy he had to meet the enemy, looking at everyone's eyes, Ling Xia smiled bitterly: "Everyone, don't look at me like that, when I didn't come before, weren't you a good commander?" Why didn't you pay attention to me now? ”

"It's not a secret, every time there was a big war before, in fact, we were so noisy, because there were too many plans, so we didn't know who to listen to, so whenever everyone had their own opinions and couldn't make up their minds, we decided by lot, and whoever we grasped the plan was to use whose idea, simple and simple, worry-free and effort-saving. Now that you're here, we're all going to have to listen to you. ”

"Lots? Why is this okay? ”

After hearing these words, seeing the triumphant expression on Zhen Long's face, a black line flashed on Ling Xia's forehead in an instant, and he tried to calm down, he said his idea: "There is a saying called closing the door to catch a thief, I don't know if you have heard of it?" ”

"Shut the door and catch the thief?" Zhen Long and Kong Yikong looked at each other in surprise, and seeing that no one had heard this sentence, he asked, "What do you mean?" ”

After hearing this, Ling Xia smiled slightly: "It means that we can put the enemy's siege soldiers into the city, and then close the city gate and kill them." ”
