The two sides are arguing over their respective views and have not yet reached a conclusion. The fight of hundreds of thousands of people at every turn is not something ordinary people can care about. Even though there are many counselors in the coalition forces, facing the current general trend, they cannot We can only seek safety according to the wishes of the coaches of the two armies.
During the conflict between the coalition commanders, the situation in the Star Kingdom was developing in a good direction. Unfortunately, as before, it was still difficult for the outside Star Kingdom troops to establish contact with the Star Capital.
The white horse passed by, and half a month passed in a flash. Half a month later, Ruan Qiling and the generals finally discussed a comprehensive plan to attack the Star Army. Faced with the opinions given by the animal trainers, Ruan Qiling had to accept the fact that they could not alone Using a herd of beasts to attack the Star Army, firstly, it is more difficult to gather the vicious beasts dispersed by the Star Army than before; secondly, the Star Army is already prepared for them.
To put it simply, even if they can still gather a large number of ferocious beasts, the Star Army will definitely be able to detect their movements in advance before taking action. If their people can no longer sneak into the Star Army camp, they will throw things that can attract the ferocious beasts on the stars. In the military camp, no matter how many ferocious beasts are gathered together, it is all in vain.
At present, the Star Army camp is in a state of alert for dozens of miles around, and they have no chance to take advantage of it. If they forcefully repeat the same tactics, they will only alert the Star Army. Once the Star Army retreats, or use the city wall to attack farther away, As a defensive line, they will no longer have the opportunity to take advantage of the beast attack.
In addition, the leader of the Yi Kingdom did not give Ruan Qiling much time, and Ruan Qiling had no time to waste. Reinforcements had already arrived one after another. Before the last reinforcement arrived, he could just formulate the final battle plan.
Half a month later, some new faces appeared in the main tent of the Yi Army. They were all generals leading various reinforcements. The youngest ones were in their thirties, but Wu Xiu’s appearance looked younger than ordinary people. , people in their thirties do not look much different from those in their twenties. Of course, regardless of their age, new generals must obey Ruan Qiling's orders, because Ruan Qiling is a member of the royal family, and his status is still unbreakable. destroy.
Ruan Qiling called all the generals here today just to discuss the war with the Star Army. Various factors such as food and grass, military morale, and the people of Yiguo were urging him to produce results as soon as possible.
"I wonder what the marshal called us here to discuss?" After the meeting began, a general directly asked Ruan Qiling about the purpose of convening the plenary meeting.
"Master Zhang, it's up to you to speak," without answering the general directly, Ruan Qiling turned to look at the only animal trainer in the tent, an old man who was over ninety years old but with a radiant face.
"Last time, the Marshal used ferocious beasts to surprise the Star Army camp. He took him by surprise and wiped out all the Star Army's front troops with almost no effort. It dealt a huge blow to the morale of the Star Army and at the same time made the Star Army wary of us. heart," the old man who Ruan Qiling called Master Zhang continued after stroking his beard: "Although the Star Army's behavior was too cautious and could even be said to be afraid of our army, it did prevent us from using a large number of ferocious beasts again. Opportunities to attack them.”
"What do Master Zhang mean?" When the old man said this, a general had already considered it.
"After discussions with other animal trainers, we have concluded that although we cannot use ferocious beasts to attack the Star Army on a large scale, we are not completely unable to use the power of ferocious beasts." Without giving in, after taking a breath, the old man continued: " After discussing with us, the Marshal decided to lead some ferocious beasts to attack the Star Army camp, try to destroy the Star Army's formation and disrupt the Star Army's morale."
Having said this, the old man looked directly at Ruan Qiling.
"I believe you all understand what the elders mean. During the decisive battle with the Star Army in the near future, those ferocious beasts will help our army take the lead. Later, when the Star Army's formation is in chaos, our army will follow closely and launch an attack on the Star Army. Defeat the Star Army in one fell swoop. By then, Lan Xu, no matter how powerful he is, will be unable to make a comeback." Meeting Master Zhang's gaze, Ruan Qiling directly added.
"Although the methods of Marshal and Master Zhang are good, the general thinks that some low-level ferocious beasts alone may not have a significant impact on the morale of the Star Army," Ruan Qiling's emphasis was a bit vague. A general was worried that they would still not be able to face a head-on confrontation. The enemy star army had no choice but to question him face to face. Of course, his question was also a matter of concern to many wing army generals.
"Of course, my commander and Master Zhang's plan is more than that. To be honest with you, I have another strategy that can not only disrupt the Star Army's position, but also cause the Star Army to lose nearly half of its combat power in a short period of time. As long as If my commander’s follow-up plan is successfully implemented, the Star Army will definitely be caught off guard by us.”
"Once the gap in strength between the two sides widens in a short period of time, the morale of the Star Army will be greatly reduced. At that time, our army will undoubtedly win. As long as we can win at the border, no matter how many deserters Lan Xu can take away, our army can take advantage of the victory and pursue it. Annihilate all the star armies in one fell swoop," his eyes became more determined, and Ruan Qiling knew very well that their chance might only be once.
"I wonder what the marshal's clever plan is?" Seeing Ruan Qiling's confidence, all the generals in the camp immediately cheered up.
"You will know when the time comes," he said, not intending to tell the generals his detailed plan. Ruan Qiling did this naturally to prevent leaks from military planes before the war.
"Since the Marshal has such confidence, we all rely on the Marshal's orders." Realizing that he had asked a question that he shouldn't have asked, the general who asked the question immediately changed his words and praised Ruan Qiling.
"Marshal, there are 30,000 new Star Army recruits in Windless City, and they have been training. I wonder if those 30,000 Star Army will have an impact on our plan?" To be cautious, some generals still proposed new ones. doubt.
"I'm not afraid that they have too many people, but I'm just afraid that Lan Xu won't mobilize those 30,000 recruits," he said with a look on his face. With the idea of killing all the Star Army in one fell swoop, Ruan Qiling kept thinking that if their plan was successfully implemented, what would happen to the Stars who participated in the decisive battle? The more troops the better, so as to save them from having to spend some time dealing with the remaining star troops later.
"Marshal is wise," seeing their commander's arrogance, the generals of the wing army were deeply inspired and all praised him.
"It all depends on the order of the marshal." After Ruan Qiling showed his determination to win, a general from the main war faction immediately expressed his support to Ruan Qiling. Immediately afterwards, a group of generals expressed their stance one after another, and each one expressed their willingness to obey Ruan Qiling. command.
It didn't take long for Yi Jun to formulate the final battle plan. Next, Ruan Qiling made detailed arrangements for every aspect of the plan, from attracting or disturbing the Star Army's attention to preventing the Star Army from evacuating before they implemented the plan. How to drive away the ferocious beasts, drive the ferocious beasts to the Star Army's camp before the ferocious beasts kill each other, and how to contain the Star Army during war, so that their plan can be successfully implemented.
From front to back, what Ruan Qiling said covered all aspects. At the end of a meeting, Ruan Qiling had made comprehensive arrangements.
On the other side, half a month has passed. At the Star Army, Lan Xu and the generals have also discussed many things. For the time being, the Star Army will not choose to evacuate. Stationing at the border is beneficial to protecting the safety of Beast Ridge City, although the Star Army itself has to bear certain responsibilities. Risk, but as before, they have no other suitable location to garrison unless they use the innocent people of Star Kingdom as a shield.
But Lan Xu was unwilling to do that, let alone show weakness to the Yi Army. In line with Lan Xu's decision, the generals who advocated the war were unwilling to evacuate.
After reaching a consensus from top to bottom, not only would they not evacuate, they also hoped that the Yi army would not retreat, because it would be easier to fight the Yi army at Beast Ridge Pass than to go to Yi country to attack the city.
In addition, in terms of time, neither side can delay it any longer, because food and grass have gradually become a problem. Currently, the Star Army is eager to fight against the Yi Army. As for the 30,000 troops that have not been mobilized to Windless City, they are all Because Lan Xu planned to use the 30,000 troops to meet unexpected needs, and compared to the strength of the Yi Army, they already had enough troops at the border.
A total of 120,000 soldiers. If the Yi Army cannot be defeated with the current strength, then the additional 30,000 soldiers will still be of little use. However, Lan Xu has recently had the idea of mobilizing troops, because the closer the 30,000 new soldiers are to the border, the better. It's a pity that the training time is too short, and I don't know how effective it will be.
For half a month, the Star Army has naturally been observing the situation of the Yi Army. Just like the Yi Army is observing them, after both sides have stepped up their vigilance, it is very difficult for the Star Army to get close to the other side's camp. It is still unclear about the internal situation of the other side. .
Regarding the battle, Lan Xu and the generals have already reached the results. The final answer is to wait for the Yi Army to fight. It is much more difficult for them to ambush the Yi Army than it is for the Yi Army to ambush them. In terms of terrain, the Yi Army that arrives first has an advantage.
Putting aside the situation at the border, Lu Yunyou has been staying in the military camp for the past half month. Apart from training and training every day, he pays no attention to the military situation, and even the number of times he meets with Fang Qing and Ni Youbin. Even if he had free time, he would use it to read military books. That was Liu Hongtao's request for him, and he did not dare to slack off.
