Who is this Commander Luo?

Chen Ze was very sure that he had never seen him.

From the other party's clothes, we can only see the Qingyang emblem that reaches the rank of general soldier. Other than that, we don't even know which city this general soldier Luo belongs to.

In this one-sided situation, and there was a precedent of the commander-in-chief being defeated, Chen Ze didn't really believe this person who dared to speak out for help at this time, just because the other party thought his words made sense.

So it is one thing to be grateful, and another thing to be reserved.

Naturally, as soon as he spoke, he first found a step for Zheng Yuanyun and others to descend, and then he expressed his thoughts.

Even so, Chen Ze's words were still met with a lot of sneers.

"The initiative is still in the opponent's hands?"

"It's ridiculous! The Zhu Yan Empire should be passive now, right?"

"That's why the Zhu Yan Empire used such a large-scale force but failed to achieve results. Now they are the ones who are in a dilemma!"

"Well, this counselor Chen has a good mind, but he is a little inexperienced..."

Zheng Yuanyun, on the other hand, did not sneer in return like the others, but frowned slightly, stared at Chen Ze with twinkling eyes for a while, and then suddenly pressed down with one hand to stop the movement below.

After discussing, he said in a deep voice: "Go on!"

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the hall.

After the Qing Dynasty withdrew General Huang, these high-ranking generals from various cities in Anluo Province almost followed Zheng Yuanyun's lead. Those sarcastic words just now were, to put it bluntly, nothing more than flattering Zheng Yuanyun.

However, Zheng Yuanyun seemed to agree with Chen Ze's statement as he continued to speak, so unfortunately, this flattery slapped the horse in the leg.

It’s a bit embarrassing!

In this delicate atmosphere, I heard Chen Ze slowly say: "I say that the initiative is still in the hands of the Zhu Yan Empire, that's because the trend has now been established!"

After a pause, he looked at Zheng Yuanyun without hesitation and said in a deep voice: "The so-called general trend is the general trend of the Zhu Yan Empire. In any case, the current situation in Bo'an City is what the Zhu Yan Empire wants to see.

That way.”

"As for the initiative..."

"Isn't it true that the Zhu Yan Empire can withdraw its troops if it wants to, and consume as much as it can if it wants to?"

"Even if we retreat, the other party has the final say as to when and how to retreat. We have no say at all!"

At this point, his words gradually became sharper, and he glanced around at the group of generals who were mocking him, "Besides sitting in Bo'an City and watching, do we have any other choice?"

this……

As soon as he said this, the general who just laughed and said that he could make a cup of tea at the top of Bo'an City and looked at the pitiful look of Zhu Yan's soldiers in the sun and rain suddenly became a little confused.

In fact, what Chen Ze said was the same thing as what they said, but they looked at the problem from different angles.

What they saw was that the Zhu Yan Empire's ambush technique had failed, and it was only a matter of time before they retreated.

There is no problem with this, but what about other things?

Bo'an City has no ability to promote this matter at all.

If the Zhu Yan Empire wants to withdraw its troops, it still has to look at the opponent's own wishes. What can Bo'an City do?

Send troops out to fight?

The current situation is that whoever starts the fight first will be at a disadvantage.

The Zhu Yan Empire will lead its troops to attack the city. Due to the strong defense of the city, the Zhu Yan Empire will be at a disadvantage and its troop losses will be much higher than that of Bo'an City.

But similarly, if Zheng Yuanyun wants to send troops to attack, with Bo'an City's funnel-like terrain, the total number of troops that can fight the Zhu Yan Empire head-on on the local battlefield will be far lower than the opponent. This has another impact on Bo'an City.

Disadvantages.

Therefore, not moving is the safest option, but if you don't move, isn't it just giving up the initiative to the enemy?

"But so what?"

The one who couldn't help but counterattacked: "Even if the initiative to retreat lies with the Zhu Yan Empire, what does this mean?"

"If you leave early and leave late, you have to retreat. We can defend Bo'an City without spending a single soldier, so why risk our lives?"

He snorted angrily, curled his lips, and said disdainfully: "How many times have you fought in so many battles like this young boy?"

"How many dead people have you seen?"

“Why do we have to do things when we can just sit back and enjoy the results?”

Hearing this, Chen Ze turned slightly and looked at the logo on his armor. Knowing that he was the city lord of Qiu Ding City, he immediately said: "If you can really just sit back and enjoy the benefits, you really don't have to do anything."

"Then, what if the Zhu Yan Empire does not withdraw its troops?"

he asked rhetorically.

"Not retreating?"

City Lord Qiu Ding snorted coldly, "Then it will be hard work!"

"His Nantes province is a province, but our Anlo province is not?"

"What we fight for is resources. After all, we are defending the city. We have an advantage in the geographical location. Are we still afraid of them?"

Chen Ze shook his head and disagreed: "First of all, if you fight for consumption, it will take a long time and there are too many variables. It should not be the first choice of tactics."

"Secondly, why did the Zhu Yan Empire choose to spend time here?"

Before City Lord Qiu Ding could speak again, he spoke very quickly: "My lords, as I said below, you have preconceived the idea of ​​defending Bo'an City, so it is inevitable that you will be restrained in your actions."

"Yes, as the defender of the city, our geographical location is our advantage, but at the same time, we have lost the right time and people!"

"The so-called timing, the initiative to attack or retreat is in the hands of others; besides, when it comes to harmony, how long has it been since Bo'an City received accurate information about Zhu Yan's army outside?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked around blankly, and finally their eyes fell on Zheng Yuanyun's face.

"The scouts sent out are indeed coming back less and less."

Zheng Yuanyun did not shy away and nodded directly in response: "Since the Zhu Yan Empire increased its troops to 1.5 million, it has conducted extremely thorough inspections of places where it is easy to lurk, and most of the scouts sent out were discovered, so later

We simply won’t send anyone.”

If you don’t send people out and you don’t have the support of the intelligence system, doesn’t it mean that as Chen Ze said, you haven’t lost your humanity?

However, it cannot be said that Zheng Yuanyun’s move was wrong.

After all, they were defending the city. From the top of the city, they could see everything within a few miles. If there was a large-scale attack by the enemy, they could still take precautions in advance. Whether or not they sent scouts actually had little effect.

Chen Ze did not comment on Zheng Yuanyun's words, but went on to say: "When marching, we must pay attention to the right time, place, and people. Now we only occupy the advantage but have lost the time and people, so we can be said to be at a disadvantage. In addition, I dare to ask

In a word, my lords..."

"Although you know that the Zhu Yan Empire's ambush technique failed, who of you dares to withdraw your troops from Bo'an City at this time?"

Withdraw from Boan?
