925 We will not attack

"Whew." Just when Shang Wen continued to explain that it was just a science and technology school. The sharp whistling of shells flew again.

"Boom." In the distance, there was a huge vibration caused by the landing of artillery shells.

"This is war." The woman said coldly at this time.

"Yes." Shang Wen nodded helplessly. He understood. What does it mean when a cannonball hits.

And twenty miles outside the city, the base camp of the Yan army. A controversy is raging.

"We should go on the offensive now. Sir. We now have about three battalions of troops arriving. Among them were two companies of the Korean cavalry company. Our attack power has increased a lot. We should go on the offensive. A major staff officer suggested.

"I object, we have a little more than three battalions of troops. What can we do with this amount of troops? We are less than 1,500 people. The opponent's strength is in the tens of thousands. Although we have the advantage of weapons, it is not an important reason for us to launch an offensive. A lieutenant colonel stood up and objected.

"Think of the chariot units we reinforce in the past. They have been wiped out. "At this time, the lieutenant colonel took out the situation of the Yan army's defeat in the first battle.

For a moment, no one in the room spoke. They know. What kind of losses did the reinforcements of the Yan army suffer in the first reinforcement operation.

"But even then, we should go and reinforce our allies." The major continued.

"Don't forget that we are Yan Jun. It's Yan Jun. Not Qin Jun. Fighting inside were the Zhao army and the Qin army. It has nothing to do with us. The lieutenant colonel said. And a captain of the South Korean army who was a reinforcement of the South Korean army on the side felt very uncomfortable after hearing it, although everyone was in the allied order, but everyone knew it. They all belong to their own countries and armies. Still, they are allies. Say it without hesitation. It's still hard to accept.

"Ahem." This time. The Colonel, who had been silent, coughed lightly. Obviously, such statements are made on such occasions. After all, it is inappropriate.

"The current situation should be clear to everyone. But we don't have many troops. The number of troops arriving so far is about 1,300 people. Although this number is constantly increasing. We have a lot of reinforcements on the way that are approaching us. However, we do have a limited number of troops. The colonel analyzed at this time.

"Even though we have an absolute advantage in weapons." The colonel said.

"In terms of heavy artillery. We have a battalion of heavy artillery units. Three heavy guns. The colonel said.

"In addition, there are a lot of infantry artillery and company artillery." The colonel said.

"These are our strengths." The colonel continued.

"In addition, we have an absolute advantage in heavy machine guns, and we have a certain amount of air power. But. The colonel said with a twist at this time.

"We have only more than 1,300 troops. The opponents consisted of tens of thousands of people, and they rushed over in groups. There's nothing we can do. The colonel concluded.

"But ・・・・・" emphasized what the major who took the initiative to attack wanted to say at this time. But it was still directly interrupted by the colonel.

"We're still defending where we are. As for the offense. I think you should know what kind of offense we can provide. The colonel pointed out the window to the rumbling cannons.

"Boom." Outside the window, the artillery was carrying out a frenzied artillery bombardment on the target of the Qi army.

"That's our support. That's what we can do at the moment. The Colonel stood up and said.

"Alright. So be it. Meeting. The colonel said and left.

"Sir." The major seems to want to emphasize something. But the colonel had already turned and left. The major was also unable to say anything about his own situation.

Actually, according to the current military strength of the Yan army. It is indeed possible to make a big hole in the encirclement of Yandu, even if the allies in the city are defeated. They can still break through this opening. The Yan army can use heavy artillery to bombard. And then take those openings. But Yan Jun didn't do that.

"Ugh." Major Yan Jun sighed helplessly. He believed that what the Yan army should learn was the Qin army's spirit of taking the initiative to attack. But now the Yan army lacks such a will to fight.

In fact, the Yan army did not lack such a will to fight, nor did it lack such an initiative to attack. But here's the thing. The Yan army needs to preserve its strength. This preservation of strength is to lay the foundation for future power struggles.

Dan, the crown prince of the Yan Kingdom, made it clear to his senior officers when the army left.

"Victory is already a sure thing. The Qin people are helping us. Zhao Guoren is also helping us. The entire powerful state of Qin is helping us. As long as we have enough gold. These countries will help us. "The Prince Dan of the Yan Kingdom clearly informed his senior officers.

"But these countries are coming for our gold. We want to be strong. It is necessary to have its own strong army. Therefore, you must be clear. On the battlefield, we need to try to drain the strength of our allies. Our power is preserved as much as possible. In the future, we will be of great strategic importance. Prince Dan said.

That's what the Colonel was considering. He wanted to preserve his military strength as much as possible. The consumption of personnel, equipment is very large. Prince Dan, who did not have any national foundation, could not afford to lose such a huge army.

That's why he gave such orders to his senior officers.

It is from this point that the colonel considers it. He needed to preserve his forces as much as possible. Without being completely sure. The Colonel would not send his own army into battle rashly.

And the young officers under him were different. They are extremely superstitious about the advanced weapons they are equipped with, and they think that since they are facing an army of tens of thousands, they can still easily win in the face of advanced weapons. And it's more with less. Such a battle of winning more with less can add a lot of honor.

The young officer possessed an incomparable aggressive offensive spirit. The colonel, on the other hand, thinks too much about politics. Therefore, two different opinions emerged among the Yan army. But in political considerations. And not from a purely military point of view. The Yan army will not take the initiative to attack the Qi army. Because they are politically motivated to preserve their military strength.

For a time, a state of equilibrium temporarily appeared on the battlefield. This balance is confrontation. But the calmer. The more Qi Jun felt that there was a problem. And it's a big problem.
