The Era of Generals

　　 silence.

　　 Zheng Yuanlong sat back in his chair of the city lord, and left in no hurry.

　　He was also worried about his brother's safety, and he was a little bit enthusiastic for a while, and he would naturally not be a general generation if he could sit as the lord of a city.

　　 Chen Ze’s remarks are of course only analysis, but it makes sense to calm down and think about it.

　　 Besides, there has been an incident in West Cloud City.

　　Thinking deeply, the Zhu Yan Empire was willing to cast a million soldiers. It only seemed to be hopeless in a forest of poisonous fog.

　　 The three armies did not move the grain and grass first. To mobilize such a large number of troops, the supply of grain and grass alone is an astronomical figure, so it is not an exaggeration to leave yourself a few more candidates.

　　The more he thought about it, the more solemn Zheng Yuanlong's expression became, and his gaze turned from Chen Ze to Mr. Jing.

　　 "Old Jing, do you... also think so?"

　　 Compared with Chen Ze, Zheng Yuanlong is more willing to trust the chief officer of the military plane, even if he can add a preface now.

　　 "The idea of ​​being next is actually not important."

Mr. 　　jing said: "As I said just now, we have a small number of soldiers here, and just the more than 40,000 troops will not be of any help to the front battlefield."

　　 "And if Brother Chen's inference comes true, the more than 40,000 troops is not much, but it is also a burden of food for Boan City, so it is better to use it for other purposes!"

　　 Zheng Yuanlong heard the words and pondered, and looked at Mr. Chen Ze and Jing left and right, and said in a deep voice: "So what do you mean, you would rather believe it?"

"good!"

Chen Ze took a step forward and looked solemnly, "My lord of the city, now there are ten days before the Zhu Yan Empire attacked Bo'an City. I am afraid that besides us, other cities in Anluo Province have sent reinforcements on the road. The ones that are fast and close are probably already here."

　　 "Then the total strength of Boan City is already sufficient, and our forty thousand people really don't have the need to join in the fun, so it's better to..."

　　 He took a deep breath and slowly said, "It's better to walk around Anluo province and clean up the poisonous insects sent by the Zhu Yan Empire!"

　　 Zhu Yan Empire’s offensive was one day after he left Bo’an City, counting his journey to the Poisonous Fog Forest, plus five days in West Cloud City, it was more than enough to say ten days.

　　 "Easy to say!"

Zheng Yuanlong’s tone was not as tough as before, but he still shook his head and frowned: “Even if this is true, the Anluo Xing province is not small. If you refer to the strength of the poisonous mist forest, it will not exceed one. Ten thousand people."

　　 "The enemy is in the dark, we are in the light, relying only on the more than 40,000 people in the hands of this general, I am afraid that it depends on luck to achieve accurate sniping, not to mention, no one can guarantee that there is only one breakthrough, right?"

　　 "When you don't know anything about the enemy, how difficult it is to catch them, it is more likely that we are running around like headless flies on the land of Anluo Province!"

　　Chen Ze smiled and said, "In fact, it's not completely clueless."

After all, he walked straight to the wall and pointed to the location of the Poisonous Mist Forest on the map of Anluo Province. "The Poisonous Mist Forest is a special case. There is only one hidden danger in Anluo Province, so if there are other breakthroughs If so, I think their number is even less than the number of attacking West Cloud City, so I will not choose to attack the city by smashing the grass and scaring the snake."

　　 "After all, the sentry on the border is not a display, and you won't be aware of the infiltration of large-scale foreign enemies."

　　 After a pause, he looked back at Zheng Yuanlong and Mr. Jing, "Since it is impossible to attack the city, their purpose is clearer. They are for logistics supplies, so..."

　　 "Here, here, and here...These places are the lifeblood of Bo'an City. Almost most of the grain and grass will be transported to Bo'an City from here."

　　 Chen Ze pointed out a total of six routes, all ending in Bo'an city, but starting from several agricultural cities in Anluo province.

　　 After a few words, Zheng Yuanlong nodded his head again and again, his eyes flashed across the stunned color, and agreed: "Yes, no matter how these **** move around, their purpose is to supply logistics!"

　　 "But..." After thinking about it, he shook his head and said: "It's still too much. There are six supply lines. This general has only more than 40,000 troops. That's not enough!"

　　 "The enemy's strength is still unknown. Even if it is divided, it can only be divided into two armies of more than 40,000 people. Separating two lines is the limit, and it is impossible to do everything."

　　 Division of troops.

If you want to guard the six routes, you can score six troops. With the current strength of West Cloud City, you can only divide out six teams of 8,000 people. What's more, West Cloud City always needs to keep some troops to defend. City, so in the most ideal state, it is not bad if there are 6,000 people in each unit.

　　 Six thousand people are too few, and I can’t tell who beat whom.

And if it is just divided into two teams, the number of each team is more than 20,000 people each, but there are only two lines that can be guarded. This will have to hit luck. Maybe the opponent will not come after a long time. , But to destroy the other four lines.

　　 "No." Chen Ze shook his head and said: "Our military strength is not limited to more than 40,000 people, but there should be...close to 100,000 people!"

　　 "One hundred thousand?"

　　 Zheng Yuanlong raised his brows, "Do you still want to conscript on the spot?"

Even Mr. Jing, who doesn’t speak very much, couldn’t help but shook his head and smiled. .

　　 As expected, Chen Ze said, "That's not necessary. If the people are recruited temporarily to join the army, firstly, the training is not enough to embarrass them, and secondly, morale is also a problem. The quantity is increased, but the quality is definitely not good."

　　 "Then where did your extra troops come from?"

　　 Zheng Yuanlong was puzzled. He took another look at the map of Anluo province and shook his head as he looked at it. "The remaining forces in other cities are estimated to be barely enough to defend the city, and there should be no extra troops for us."

　　 Chen Ze smiled bitterly, and he understood the reason why Zheng Yuanlong could only guard the remote town. The Lord's vision... was really too shallow.

　　 At the moment, I had to pick out and say: "My Lord City Lord, but forgot, outside of Anluo province?"

　　His finger ran across the forest of poisonous mist on the edge of the map, clicked on the blank space on the wall, and said, "There is a city here, it is Biping City in the Hawon Province!"

　　 "After Boan's messenger came to West Cloud City to report the enemy's situation that day, he rushed to Biping City, the next stop. Calculating the time, the reinforcements sent by Biping City are almost time to arrive."

"Yes indeed!"

　　 Zheng Yuanlong slapped his thigh and suddenly said, "Why did I forget Lao Yang? My elder brother had a favor with him in the past, and Boan was in trouble. Lao Yang will definitely send troops to help!"

　　 "Then let's wait until Lao Yang's troops arrive, and the two men and horses are merged into one place, before we set off?"

　　 Unknowingly, Zheng Yuanlong had already inquired into Chen Ze's tone.

　　 "Yes, there are 100,000 troops in hand, which can guarantee a worry-free logistics, but before the people of Biping City arrive, there is one more thing that must be done first!"

　　 Speaking of this, Chen Ze's eyes were cold.
