Chapter 358: Strategic Deployment

When Zhou Ping walked into the house, everyone in the room looked at him, Baili Chengfeng and Chu Li were among them, Zhou Ping looked around, and several other people were also looking at him up and down, thinking that these people should be the governors of several other war zones.

Chu Li raised his eyes and glanced at Zhou Ping, although the two had not seen each other for two years, Chu Li was still indifferent, he waved his hand at Zhou Ping, and said, "Just find a place to sit down." ”

Zhou Ping bowed slightly when he heard this, and then sat in the corner, those overseers were not stupid, in addition to their few overseers and Chu Li, there was only the young man named Zhou Ping who could participate in this meeting, even if they hadn't seen Zhou Ping, they had at least heard of his deeds, so from the beginning they regarded Zhou Ping as a person of the same level as them.

To put it bluntly, if Zhou Ping hadn't left Chang'an City for two years, then now the Seven Great Overseers would inevitably have a place for him, and these people knew Zhou Ping's energy very well in their hearts, and they didn't dare to give birth to a trace of contempt.

"The orc forces suddenly changed today, and the number of orc troops patrolling near our camp has begun to increase exponentially, if we don't respond, then we will be too passive. ”

The person who spoke, Zhou Ping, happened to know, when Zhou Ping broke the Tiger Clan's battle formation, it was this man with a snake spear who sent troops to meet him, this person was the backbone of the military department back then, and now it is natural to sit in the position of overseer.

"The third is right, I suspect that the orcs are waiting for something. Baili Chengfeng held his chin and said, "If we wait until the orcs make a move, it will be too passive, if it is possible, we had better strike first." ”

Zhou Ping finally understood at this time, these overseers wanted to persuade Chu Li to order to attack the Orcs first at today's meeting, but at this time, the strength of the Orcs was far stronger than the Terrans, was it really wise to start a war rashly in this situation?

Chu Li's thoughts coincided with Zhou Ping, Chu Li's original plan was to wait for Li Si to finish the banquet of all nations in Chang'an City, and then consider counterattacking after successfully dispatching reinforcements, after all, this is the safest method, but the current situation is ever-changing, and the beast clan may launch an offensive at any time, so he must respond as soon as possible.

"In fact, the orcs have figured out our platoon for a long time, and if there is a war, the orcs are likely to target our weakest point and attack, and at that time, even if we want to rush, we may not be able to come to the rescue. One of the Overseers muttered.

"It's not wise to take the initiative to go to war now, our current military strength is too different from the orcs, I think everything should wait for reinforcements to arrive before negotiating......"

The meeting has been talked about for so long, some people are the main battle, and naturally there are people who are in charge of peace, in fact, both sides have their own reasons, Zhou Ping did not speak from beginning to end, just quietly waited for the result, although he got everyone's permission and was qualified to enter the meeting, but after all, there was no official position, and it was a little inappropriate to interject rashly.

Chu Li's eyes kept glancing at Zhou Ping, Zhou Ping was sitting precariously, with a hint of wildness in his calmness, even he didn't know that now his temperament had reached a sideways step.

Baili Chengfeng's sight was also attracted by Zhou Ping, this kind of temperament he has only seen in three people in his life, the veteran of the military department, the killing god Lu Qingdu, and the battle is absolutely Chu Li, these three people are all overlords in the army, in the eyes of Baili Chengfeng, the current Zhou Ping is not weaker than these three people in addition to his qualifications.

Several people discussed for a long time but didn't come up with a reason, and just as everyone continued to argue, Chu Li turned his head to look at Zhou Ping, and asked in a deep voice, "Zhou Ping, what do you think about sending troops?"

Hearing this, Zhou Ping got up and saluted Chu Li and many overseers, and said softly, "The last general thinks that it is not appropriate to fight with the beasts before the arrival of reinforcements from all nations, but we can't let the beasts explore our military secrets at will, and we must take action." ”

"Oh?" Chu Li raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you think we should do?"

Zhou Ping frowned, although he knew that it was not appropriate for him to speak wildly in this situation, but since Chu Li had already asked him here, it showed that Chu Li wanted him to integrate into this circle, and he couldn't live up to this painstaking effort no matter what.

"The last general thinks that a small number of elite troops should be dispatched outside the major war zones, and these exploration troops of the beast race should be killed from time to time, and if they kill the exploration troops of the beast race, then the beast race will be equivalent to losing their eyes and ears, even if their strength is stronger than ours, they will never attack rashly without knowing our specific deployment. ”

Several War Zone Overseers all frowned in unison, what Zhou Ping said had a certain amount of truth, but where did they get so many elites? And once they killed too much, the Orcs mobilized a large army to kill these elites, and they were powerless to rescue them!

"If the elites we sent out are killed by the local army, how can we rescue them? The elites who can be qualified to kill the orc exploration troops must be the mainstay of the army, and every one of these elites killed in battle will be a great loss......

An overseer expressed his worries, Zhou Ping also frowned slightly, to be honest, he doesn't have a very good strategy now, it is obviously unrealistic to start a war directly, but if you continue to let the beasts wreak havoc around the major war zones, not only will the intelligence in the army be leaked, but the morale of the army will also be greatly hit.

"In fact, the most important thing we need to do now is to keep the morale of the army, and then win as many victories as possible. Zhou Ping said in a deep voice, "At this time, Your Majesty is making every effort to prepare for the banquet of all nations, and the more credit we have, the more he will have the right to speak, if there are no reinforcements, then our troops will not be able to resist it no matter what." ”

He had a point. Baili Chengfeng nodded and agreed, "If there are no reinforcements, then the loss of our defense line is only a matter of time, our battlefield is not only here, but also at the negotiation table in Chang'an City!"

Chu Li took a deep breath, how could he not know this, but the implementation of these things was not as simple as he imagined, it was not easy to lead troops, if he wanted to lead this million-strong army, Chu Li had to consider it more comprehensively.

Several overseers also fell silent at this time, Zhou Ping made sense, at this time they were not able to fight the beasts head-on, but if they had been suppressed on the front line and did nothing, then the situation of Li Si who negotiated in Chang'an City would become very difficult, and Zhou Ping's suggestion was to find a compromise point from these two harsh conditions, although it was not the best way, but at this time they had no choice.

"I think Zhou Ping's idea is good, now we can't afford to fight the orcs head-on, using this method to weaken their living force and increase our morale is indeed a good choice. ”

After Chu Li finished speaking, he whispered again, "Of course, sacrifice is definitely indispensable in this process, and we must be prepared......"

The Overseers in the room, though they didn't look very good, nodded and agreed to the suggestion, and now they had only one way to go.

Next, Chu Li discussed with several theater overseers in this general direction for nearly half an hour, while Zhou Ping had been pricking up his ears to understand the current battlefield situation, and after half an hour, he had basically understood the basic location, strength and battle situation of the seven theaters.

Among the seven major theaters, the strength of the other theaters is about the same, but only the third theater stationed in the wind is scarce, only 100,000. Of course, this is also related to the narrow defense area of the third war zone, in Zhou Ping's view, the location of the third war zone seems to be safe, but in fact, it is not as simple as others think, on the contrary, it is very likely to become a breakthrough for the beast race.

After the meeting, Zhou Ping personally found Baili Chengfeng and told him about it, but Baili Chengfeng only smiled slightly, although his third theater of war troops is scarce, but the combat power will not be better than other theaters, most of them are old subordinates who have followed Baili Chengfeng to fight all their lives, not as weak as Zhou Ping imagined.

Although Zhou Ping was still worried in his heart, since Baili Chengfeng had already said so, Zhou Ping could only nod.

Chu Li finally walked out of the door after dealing with the complicated military affairs, at this time, Chu Ci, who had been waiting outside for a long time, suddenly threw himself into Chu Li's arms, Chu Li was stunned for a moment, when he saw that the person in his arms was Chu Ci, his tired eyebrows and eyes finally relaxed, he patted Chu Ci's back lightly, and said with a smile, "What a big girl, still drill into your father's arms!"

At this time, Chu Ci's eyes were a little red, no matter how strong she was on weekdays, she would always be that weak daughter in front of Chu Li......

Zhou Ping stood behind Chu Ci with a smile and looked at this warm scene, and his heart was full of emotion, in fact, he was the most sorry for Chu Li, if he hadn't left for two years, how could their father and daughter be separated for so long again?

Zhang Xiaoyue and Zhang Hanzhong are also old acquaintances, Chu Li called Chen Bi'an and Mu Ruqing, the two generations who came out of the southern country gathered together again after two years, and they all had a lot to say.

Everyone understands that there are not many quiet nights left like this, and the deployment of the attack and killing of the beast exploration force has been completed, and once this plan is completely launched, the human and beast races will not be far from a real war.
