Chapter 491 Attack or not?trade-off

border.

"General, what should we do now?" Wen Rencheng was riding a black horse, wearing armor, with a black iron sword in his hand, with an imposing aura, and his iron-blooded face was cold and stern.

A lieutenant behind him was sitting on horseback in the wind and sand, his face was chapped by the wind and sand.

Wen Rensheng stood against the wind and sand, riding on a tall horse like a god, looking at the Xiguo army camped ahead, his eyes were deep.

"Ten miles back, set up camp, and stand still." In front of him was the legendary "Death of Death". The elite soldiers he led, and a team of spies sent out not long ago, were directly swallowed by the desert, leaving no bones and no survivors.

But Xiguo's tactics this time made him clueless, and completely changed his tactics. His men only fought once, and lost most of Xiguo's cavalry team.

Do not underestimate the enemy.Wen Rencheng secretly reflected in his heart. Although he never said it, he knew that deep down in his heart he always ignored Xi Guo, a subordinate who had been defeated by him several times.

General Pingxi.This title may sound like a bright future, but in fact, as much expectation and hope as it carries, it bears as much burden and pressure.

Before leaving, he promised the emperor that he would capture Ximen Han and remove him.But now, not to mention arresting people, he has never even seen the figure of Ximen Han.

Under the command of the general, the northern soldiers retreated ten miles and set up camp in a safe place.

In the commander's tent.

"Here, and here, are the positions where the enemy's defense is weakest, and it is also the position where we have the best chance to launch a surprise attack." Wen Rensheng's military adviser pointed to the map, and planted flags at several breakthroughs in the enemy camp.

Listening to his analysis, the other lieutenants nodded in agreement, "The last general also thought that this is the weakest place in the enemy's camp. If we seize this opportunity and succeed in the sneak attack, we will be able to take down the Emperor of the Western Kingdom in one fell swoop!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone objected, "But I don't think it's right."

After the man finished speaking, Wen Rencheng, who had been silent all this time, glanced at him, "Tell me."

"Yes. General, look here. This is a canyon after passing through the desert of death. It looks like the place where the enemy's defenses are the most lax, but the entrance here is narrow. It is really easy to defend and difficult to attack." The man pointed Looking at the location of the canyon, he frowned deeply, "The general thought that if the enemy army set up an ambush here... I'm afraid they will fall into the trap, it's unimaginable."

After the deputy general finished speaking, he saw that Ren Sheng looked at him with a look of surprise and approval in his eyes.

"Deputy General Liu's words are wrong." The deputy general who supported the attack here insisted on saying, "Those wine bags and rice bags in the West Country have always been the masters of tyrannical force, and they seldom calm down to use tricks—otherwise, how could they have been there for so many years? They are all in the position of the weakest country in the Western Kingdom?"

"That's right, General Che's words are right!" Hearing what General Che said, the radicals in the main battle became excited, "How can our cavalry in the northern kingdom be timid? If we don't attack at this time, when will we attack?"

"General, the last general also thinks so! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we don't strive for this opportunity, it will be difficult to defeat the people of the Western Kingdom!"

"No way! Didn't you realize that the enemy army is surprisingly patient this time! Obviously they have learned to be smart, knowing that the desert of death is a natural barrier. We dare not attack rashly, and they do not retreat. They just want to consume us!"

"Vice General Liu, when did you become so timid?"

"General Che, think about it calmly. It's not because the last general is timid, but because he can't take the enemy lightly!"

"It's obvious that you are afraid of death—"

"I--"

"All right!"

Wen Rensheng raised his eyes slightly, and calmly stopped the quarrel of these people.

It was a good discussion about countermeasures, but in the end it became a confrontation and quarrel between the two parties.

He frowned slightly, looked at the map, leaned on the table with both hands, pursed his lips, and carefully studied the map in front of him.

Then the voice was calm and composed, "You all make sense—but I have a plan."

"Please tell me, General."

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly put away the rest of their faces. There were surprises and curiosity, and they listened carefully to the strategy Ren Sheng had in mind.

Wen Rensheng pointed to the location of the canyon on the map with his slender fingertips, and his tone was steady, with the demeanor of a leader, "As General Che said, if we can attack from here, we will surely be able to break into the enemy's base camp in one fell swoop. But as Liu As the lieutenant general worried, if the enemy army is more cunning and sets up an ambush here, then we will be at a disadvantage.

So - offense also has to attack, but defense also has to defend. "

Offense also needs to attack, and defense also needs to defend?
Everyone looked at Wen Rencheng in bewilderment, and many generals were rough, and they were even more confused by Wen Rencheng's words.

"General, just say it! The last general doesn't understand what you mean!"

Wen Rensheng was not in a hurry, and continued to explain calmly, "Send a small group of people to scout out the way to create momentum, and the large force will follow closely behind."

"But..." Deputy General Liu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then subconsciously worried, "In this way, if it really succeeds, the follow-up troops will not be able to keep up, and the small team exploring the way ahead will be defeated by the enemy..."

"Hey, you bastard, you were the one who said not to attack, and now you are the one who has come up with a countermeasure and is afraid of not having enough manpower! It's so strange, I blame you!" General Che snorted from his nasal cavity, With the corners of his eyes hanging, he looked at Vice General Liu and said.

Vice General Liu had no choice but to smile wryly at General Che.

Wen Rencheng pursed his lips, folded his hands behind his back, his brows were raised high, and there was an air of awe-inspiring coldness.

"But this is the best way. As long as you succeed, the follow-up troops can quickly catch up. If you miss...then you won't be caught in an ambush and the whole army will be wiped out."

As he spoke, he sighed, and the rest of the generals present understood.

"No!" It was an old general who said this, he blew his beard and stared at his eyes, "General, you are letting your brothers die in vain!"

As he spoke, his hands were shaking, and his tone couldn't help but be a bit blasphemous.

The others were silent, some supported it, and some did not object, but acquiesced to the old general's meaning.

Wen Rencheng's brows and eyes were still shrouded in a chill, but he only twitched the corner of his mouth, and said coldly, "At this time, General Wu must know better than me what to choose."

Compared with the risk of annihilation of the entire army, it is naturally safer to give up the soldiers and protect the handsome.

It's not that they don't understand this truth in their hearts, they just think that they are all brothers who killed the enemy together, and they are all good men who killed the enemy bloody for the northern country.

Someone sighed, with a hoarse voice, "The last general asks for orders, lead a small team, and scout the way for a sneak attack!"

Wen Rencheng took a deep look at that person, his eyes were flickering and uncertain.

It seems that tonight is destined to be a sleepless night!
