Chapter 239: Take the initiative

"Who is Elena?"

Rehmannia immediately explained triumphantly: "Isn't it that beautiful foreign girl?"

Xiao Pan gloated and looked at Dihuang: "That woman, oh my God! You still treat her as a human being, her sapphire eyes are not normal at first glance, you haven't even seen it, even Lu Shuai kept a distance from her, I didn't expect it to be so powerful, could it be fake?"

"Forget it, that woman's origin is unknown, let's not mess with it!"

"Ahem...... Lu Ziming coughed: "This matter will be put aside for a while, and we will talk about how to deal with the enemies of Ji Township now?"

Lao He looked at the picture of Ji Xiang and frowned and said: "The enemy is hiding in Ji Township, he must be hiding in the ruins, the enemy situation is unknown, do you want to send someone to investigate first?"

"No, this will startle the snake, and Alina said that the enemy will launch an attack on Xincheng tomorrow, and it is likely that there will be a large-scale operation tonight, and sending people now will only make the enemy act in advance", Lu Ziming immediately vetoed Lao He's opinion.

"Lu Shuai is right, the enemy and I don't know, I don't know how many troops the enemy has in Jixiang, sending people will only startle the grass and startling the snake", Zhang Yechang pondered for a moment and said: "Didn't Lu Shuai say it just now? The enemy of Jixiang and Liu Houxin arrived in Xincheng together, maybe the two assassination operations are true, that is to say, the enemy hiding in Jixiang will launch a surprise attack after the assassination is successful, and now the assassination operation has failed, according to my speculation, the number of enemies in Jixiang will not exceed 30,000, if there are many enemies, why hide?"

Offense is the best means of defense, but it is always easier to defend than to attack, especially when one's own outnumber of enemies, and without considering combat effectiveness, the defending side has a great advantage.

If Zhang Yechang's speculation is correct, the number of enemies is far less than he imagined, which also proves from the side why the enemy hides under his nose and does not show up directly.

"Makes sense, keep talking!"

"If we look at the whole thing together, we will find that it is not difficult to understand", a sharp spark flashed in Zhang Yechang's eyes, and he said with a little excitement: "We can roughly infer from the troops in Lu Tianxing's hands at the beginning that when Lu Tianxing arrived in Jiutun, he was not ready for war, but he found that Xincheng's strength was weak, and there were other forces that could be used, so he dared to attack Xincheng." Liu Houxin's situation is different, after getting the news of Lu Tianxing's defeat, on the one hand, he is ready to continue to put pressure on Xincheng, and on the other hand, he is ready for war, but obviously if the negotiation fails, it is too late to go back and transfer troops, so the enemy army in Jixiang arrived with Liu Houxin, and even if the negotiation is successful, this enemy army can quickly take over Xincheng, Xincheng does not even have a chance to regret it, that is to say, whether the negotiation is successful or not, this army is useful, although the number of 30,000 people to take over Xincheng is a little more, but it is very safe!”

"Why 30,000, not 50,000, or 70,000? We all know that if we want to occupy Xincheng in a dignified manner, even if we want to send 100,000, it is not too much, after all, the enemy army is the attacking side, and we have a defensive advantage. However, we know that from the defeat of Lu Tianxing to the appearance of Liu Houxin in Xincheng in only ten days, excluding the time on the road, even if the Military Commission has a plan to deal with various crises in advance, the time to assemble the army will not exceed five or six days, and it is obviously impossible to gather a large-scale army in such ......a short time. ”

"Okay! Let's look at the intelligence of the Central Military Commission collected through other forces, 500,000 or 600,000 troops want to control more than a dozen bases, and each base needs an average of about 30,000, which is already the smallest defensive force, that is to say, the strength of the main base of the Central Military Commission will not exceed 100,000 troops, and we know that the larger the base, the more troops are needed, and the 100,000 troops are obviously not much, if it is us, how many troops can be mobilized?"

"If the army is transferred from the main base of the Military Commission, and the time is so short, 30,000 troops is already the limit. It is not surprising that we look at the two attempted assassinations that Lu Shuai just said, precisely because the army dispatched by the Military Commission this time was so least, that they did not choose to fight head-on, but beheaded the operation, but the plan failed, and they had to prepare to attack Xincheng as a last resort. ”

"Thirty thousand troops are neither more nor less, no matter how little, they can't form a deterrent to Xincheng at all, and it is undoubtedly a moth throwing fire to bring humiliation on itself, so I didn't give up attacking Xincheng, this is my analysis of the enemy army!"

Xiao Cao immediately retorted: "Professor Zhang! Your analysis is very reasonable, but is the 30,000 enemy army a little less?"

Zhang Yechang nodded: "You are right, 30,000 troops are indeed a little less, which is a result that the Military Commission did not expect when it planned at the beginning." But we have to see, if the assassination plan is successful, these 30,000 people are not a lot, and against a leaderless Xincheng, 10,000 troops are enough. Besides, do you really think that 30,000 enemy troops can't attack Xincheng?"

There are more than 30,000 troops in Xincheng, but most of them are newly reorganized troops, and their combat effectiveness will only be lower than that of 30,000 enemy troops.

There is also a fatal problem, after all, 30,000 enemy troops came to the Military Commission, and it is true that the civilians of Xincheng are very military attacking themselves, but it is another thing to really attack the army of the Military Commission. It's like everyone shouting and beating the gangsters, but if you really rush up and fight the gangsters, you have to consider your own strength.

Li Juan was also not optimistic about this battle: "Even if there are only 30,000 enemy troops, Xincheng can not confront them head-on, and we have little chance of winning this battle, Ziming!

Lu Ziming also had a headache, although the number of enemy troops was smaller than expected, it was completely different from the enemy he had faced before. The enemy army is a veteran of a hundred battles, and the weapons and equipment will not be worse than Xincheng, and the result of 30,000 regular troops fighting 30,000 miscellaneous armies can be imagined, this is a battle with unequal strength.

Fortunately, Xincheng is on the defensive side, and it has the advantages of time, geography, and people, and if it really fights, it will lose immediately.

However, being passively beaten is very unfavorable to Xincheng, if it is really pressed and beaten by 30,000 enemy troops, first of all, it will cause great damage to Xincheng, and secondly, after a long time, it is impossible for the Military Commission not to send reinforcements again, and Xincheng is really dangerous at that time.

"I think we should take the initiative in this battle, and before the enemy army knows that we have discovered their hiding place, we should first attack, disrupt the deployment of the enemy army, and completely destroy the enemy army in Jixiang!"

"Take the initiative! Our chances of victory in a frontal battle are less than 30 percent, and without the cover of the fortifications of Xincheng, can we defeat 30,000 enemy troops?" )
