Chapter 1281: Try Your Best
In Gangao Town, Sadie and others who had just fallen asleep were all awakened by the owl messenger coming from Mon State.
Just when they were about to come up with a countermeasure after listening to the owl messenger's report, another owl messenger broke into their house, sweating profusely.
After seeing Saadi, Nailen and Desa all present, the owl messenger immediately said loudly: "My lords, something serious has happened. A large number of warships of unknown origin suddenly appeared in the Salween River.
Those warships are now launching a fierce attack on our river bank positions.
From the beginning to now, the rain of flaming stones in the sky has never stopped.
That scene was like the end of the world, and our people were so suppressed by the shower of meteors and fire that they were almost out of breath.
Now all of our people have hid in the trenches and resigned themselves to fate. Master Wu Xuan sent me here to ask for your instructions, whether we should continue to hold the position on the river bank or retreat backward to avoid the attack of meteors and fire showers. "
After listening to the owl messenger's report, the faces of Saadi and the other two people immediately became very ugly.
Looking at the frightened owl messenger, Sadie snorted coldly and said:
"What meteor shower?
Aren't they just some stones smeared with fire oil?
Let me ask you, in addition to using trebuchets on battleships to launch long-range attacks on you, did the Condor Army also send other troops to conduct landing operations? "
"Back to Master Wu Sadi, the Condor Army only used trebuchets to attack us."
"Are your casualties high?" Sadie continued to ask.
After carefully recalling the scene at that time, the owl messenger returned:
"Except for the fact that the brothers were caught off guard by the enemy while they were sleeping in the bunker at the beginning, and many people inside the bunker suffered heavy losses when huge rocks smashed into the tower, it seems that there were not many casualties after the big guys escaped.
The accuracy of the rain of stone bullets fired by the trebuchet was very poor, and the brothers all hid in the trenches, so as long as they didn't carry the idea back home, they would basically be safe. "
After listening to the owl messenger's answer, Sadie immediately reprimanded: "If that's the case, then why does Wu Zhuan still want to retreat?
Doesn't he know what the consequences will be if the Jiang'an garrison retreats?
Please tell Wu Zhuan that no one can leave the Jiang'an position without my order. Even if they die, they must die at Jiang'an. "
"Yes, Lord Wusadi, I will go back and convey your order to Lord Wu Xuan."
After saying that, the owl messenger saluted everyone and then immediately turned around and left.
Watching the owl messenger leaving, Sadie said to the other people in the room:
“The situation is now very clear, we have all been tricked by Ning Yuan.
It turns out that Ning Yuan’s previous preparations were all just showmanship. He not only deceived us, he even deceived those Chinese players. We all underestimated him.
Now that the Condor Empire's naval fleet has appeared on the Salween River, we will not only have to face the crazy bombing of this Condor naval fleet, but also face the two armies permanently stationed on the battleship.
Judging from the fleet's indiscriminate bombing of our river bank positions, I have a premonition that at dawn tomorrow, the Condor Army on the other side of the river will immediately launch a battle to cross the river.
Their action tonight is not only to use trebuchets to destroy the fortifications on our river bank position, but it is also a harassment tactic to undermine the morale of our army.
The owl player that Wu Shuai had just sent to report the news actually described the Condor Army's stone-throwing attack as a meteor shower that would only appear in the end of the world.
This shows how much psychological pressure the Condor Army's night attack tonight has brought to the Jiang'an garrison.
Under such huge psychological pressure, they will definitely not be able to sleep tonight, so I seriously doubt how much fighting power they will have left tomorrow.
The Jiang'an position is very important to us. If it is lost, the Chinese players on the other side of the river who have long been eager to see through it will definitely attack our hinterland like mad dogs.
Although those Chinese players are not yet a threat to our rule, if we leave them alone, they will cause serious damage to our production.
If they only rob some food resources, then we can barely bear it. After all, after so many years of accumulation, even if the farmland across the country is out of production for two or three years, we can survive safely without any food shortages.
However, looking at their posture, they came here not only to rob things, but also to rob people.
According to the report of the spies I sent to the Chinese Forum, Ningyuan has given those Chinese players specific prices for buying and selling people.
One thousand earth coins for a young man.
Five thousand to ten thousand earth coins for a beautiful young virgin.
From three thousand to five thousand for a beautiful young woman.
A healthy male child is worth a hundred, and a healthy female child is worth a thousand.
Faced with such a generous purchase price, those Chinese players will definitely become extremely crazy.
Coupled with the weapon rewards that Ningyuan gave them before, once they break through to our densely populated hinterland, it will definitely be a catastrophe.
At that time, those Chinese players will definitely plunder all the eligible people and kill all those who do not meet the conditions.
Therefore, even if we suffer serious casualties, we must not give up the river bank position.
Based on the current state of Wu Zhuan and the others, if the Shenying Army launches a fierce attack tomorrow, I estimate that they will be strong enough to withstand it, so I suggest that the troops in the rear that are used for mobile support be immediately transferred to the Jiang'an position.
In addition, let the several owl regiments that are gathering be stationed in Mengnao Town and Wansen Town, ready to go into battle at any time.
This battle is related to our future destiny.
If we withstand the onslaught of the Condor Army, they will soon be in a serious food crisis.
If we cannot withstand the attack of the Condor Army, then we will personally open the door to the plains to the Condor Army.
When the time comes to face the crazy Chinese players, our people will be in dire straits.
Therefore, we must not leave any more mobile legions now. We must use all our strength immediately and give our best as soon as we come up. "
After finishing speaking, Sadie looked directly at Dessa and Nailen, waiting for them to nod or shake their heads.
After hearing what Sadie was going to say, all the mobile corps in the rear would be transferred to the front line to participate in the battle, Desa exhaled heavily and said:
"Guo Sadi, your idea is very good and your analysis makes sense, but have you considered whether our logistics and transportation capabilities can meet your plan?
We have deployed a total of 300,000 troops on the banks of the Salween River in the upper reaches of Dagao Town.
It is already very difficult for the logistics department to supply the daily needs of these 300,000 troops.
You still want to transfer the mobile army on standby behind you. Have you considered whether the logistics department can meet the daily needs of an army of 500,000 people?
The terrain on the west side of the river bank is very complicated, and logistics and transportation are not very convenient.
I would suggest that the air force mobile corps on standby in the rear be sent to support them first and stationed at the front lines of Mengnao and Wansen.
As for the mobile legions on the ground, it would be better for them to postpone their support.
After all, there are an army of 300,000 players at the Jiang'an position. No matter how fierce the Shenying Army's offensive is, killing 300,000 people will not be accomplished in a day or two.
So we can wait and see, wait until the Jiang'an garrison has suffered certain casualties, and then let the mobile army from behind rush over in time. "
"Wu Nailun, what's your opinion?"
Seeing that Dessa disagreed with his plan, Sadie immediately looked at Nailen.
Gently stroking his beard, Nailen said slowly:
"What you both said makes sense, but I am more inclined to implement the plan proposed by Guo Sardi.
This is an extraordinary moment. Facing the Condor Empire Navy Fleet that suddenly appears here, we cannot take any chances and must do our best from the moment we get there.
This condor navy fleet traveling upstream probably has nearly a thousand battleships and transport ships.
The owl messenger from Mon State once said that they sent an owl army to attack the fleet.
However, the number of Condor Empire owl troops that lifted off from those battleships was greater than the one they sent out.
This was also the main reason why they failed to stop the naval fleet.
Now the Condor Army not only has nearly a thousand more warships, but also nearly three to four hundred thousand troops.
With so many troops suddenly appearing, and the Chinese players constantly arriving here, their logistical pressure will definitely become even greater.
In order to alleviate the logistical pressure, the Condor Army has only one option, which is to immediately launch a cross-river campaign and send all the big food-eating households to the west bank of the Salween River, allowing them to fight their way into our hinterland to support war and become self-sufficient.
As a result, the most anxious one now should be the Condor Army, so their attack will definitely be more fierce next.
At that time, as long as we can withstand the fierce attack of the Condor Army and persist for a month or two, then the Condor Army will definitely be in a dilemma due to insufficient food and grass.
Because as long as the Chinese players on the other side of the river cannot cross the river for one day, they will eat an extra day of food from the Condor Army.
With more and more Chinese players on the other side of the river, I'm afraid it won't just be about food, because all the Chinese players have paid to come here.
When the time comes, he will face countless dissatisfied Chinese players. If Ning Yuan cannot handle this matter well, he will definitely be eaten up by those players.
At this time, the players sent by the Chinese Guild Alliance can come in handy.
I believe that with them fanning the flames among the player community, those players who feel that they have been deceived will definitely not let Ning Yuan go easily.
There is a Chinese saying that it is easier to invite gods than to send them away.
Ning Yuan deceived millions of Chinese players, and those players all walked for six or seven days in a row before reaching the east bank of the Salween River.
If Ning Yuan fails to fulfill the promises he made, the angry Chinese players are likely to turn their guns and directly attack Ning Yuan and his Eagle Army.
Although this possibility is slim, it is still possible.
The only way to increase this possibility is that we can firmly block the enemy on the east bank of the Salween River, so that they can only look at the river and sigh.
Facing the fierce attack of the Condor Army, it is very difficult to hold on until there is a food crisis on the Condor Army's side, so we must go all out from the beginning.
Yes, if we transfer all the mobile corps that are on standby at the rear to provide support at any time, it will bring a huge burden to the logistics.
But have you ever thought about how quickly our frontline soldiers would suffer casualties in the face of the fierce attack of the Condor Army?
Instead of waiting for a large number of casualties to occur on the front line and then replenishing reinforcements from the rear, it is better to have all the soldiers of the mobile corps come over with as much dry food as possible.
In this way, not only can we add reinforcements to Wu Zhuan in a timely manner, but it will also not put too much pressure on the logistics. Isn't this just killing two birds with one stone? "
"Lord Wu Nailun, you have thought carefully."
"Lord Wu Nailun, I agree with your plan."
After listening to Nailen's analysis, Saadi and Desa expressed their opinions one after another.
After seeing that both of them agreed with his plan, Nailen immediately ordered:
"Since you two have no objections, let's start making preparations!
Tomorrow morning, Sadie, you will personally lead the flying legion to press me towards Dagao Town. You must put enough pressure on the main force of the Condor Air Force there so that they will not dare to easily participate in tomorrow's battle across the river.
Dessa, you immediately mobilize those mobile legions to go to the Jiang'an position, and then you go there too and take over from Wu Dian to take charge of the overall situation. "
"Yes, sir."
"Okay, sir, I'll go right away."
.....
"What? Are you saying that Lord Wu Sadi and the others want me to defend the position on the river bank and not take a step back?"
After hearing the order brought back by the owl messenger he sent, Wu Zhuan's eyes immediately widened.
“Yes, sir, that’s what Lord Wu Sadie ordered.
He said that the Jiang'an position is very important to us and we must not make any mistakes, so even if we die, we must die here at the Jiang'an position. "
The owl messenger answered honestly.
After getting confirmation from the other party, Wu Xuan looked up at the sky, and then ordered loudly:
"Send my military order to have all players rest in the trenches immediately.
Even if I can't sleep, I still have to close my eyes and rest my mind.
As for the meteors and fire showers in the sky, it’s up to you to decide whether you want them to be high or low.
Please help me tell everyone, just say that life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor, and there is no way to hide who is destined.
Therefore, we must seize the time to rest as much as possible, because there will be an even more fierce battle during the day tomorrow.
After losing a large number of bunkers and facing the enemy's fierce attack, it will be more difficult for us to defend tomorrow. It is very likely that as soon as the war begins, we will fall into tragic hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.
If we cannot adjust our physical condition to the optimal level, we will easily fall into a disadvantage.
So even if I close my eyes, I must keep them closed until dawn. "
