Chapter 1164 Strategic Goals

Chang'an City Imperial Palace, above the court hall.

Queen Ling'er was unable to go to court due to her pregnancy, so Luo Feng stood in front of the throne to preside over the court meeting.

News of the fall of Chengdu Prefecture quickly reached Chang'an. Before Luo Feng had finished listening to the phone report from the Yuzhou garrison, which was not far from Chengdu, he received another urgent report of the Chengdu tragedy.

Feijian scouts sent by Shushan used video snails to capture the tragic scene of Nanzhao's invading army arresting people for poisoning. Those people who were eaten by the poisonous insects until their bones were exposed were unable to die and could only moan in the poisonous pits. Howling, the horrific scene is horrifying.

After the video projection was played, the civil and military officials in the hall were silent for a moment, and there were angry curses everywhere, and it suddenly became boiling.

"Are these barbarians still human? They are simply less human than monsters!"

"What a shame!"

"Master Imperial Advisor, please immediately send troops to aid Shu. Otherwise, Yuzhou will be in danger and the people of Shu will be in danger!"

"I am willing to be the vanguard. As long as you give me three thousand divine machine troops, I will be able to kill all these monsters and bring justice to the people who died tragically!"

…

Most of the officials of the Chinese Empire were knights and swordsmen, and they couldn't bear to see evil spirits harming the people. The main war faction occupied the vast majority of the court, but it was not like the Great Song Dynasty, where the enemies were all in the face, and there were still people who wanted nothing more in the court. Use diplomacy to make peace and spend money to buy peace.

Luo Feng was somewhat pleased with this. Compared with the common people, the human leadership he had pieced together was still somewhat advanced.

These people, even if they have no soldiers at their disposal, dare to rush to the enemy camp alone and change the situation by themselves like heroes.

However, although this is better than capitulationism, it is only the courage of an ordinary man. Without the halo of the protagonist, it is no different from dying.

The morale of the army was ready without agitation. Luo Feng's face was as calm as water, and he said directly without any nonsense: "The enemy invaded the border and massacred our people. The imperial court decided to send troops immediately to kill all the barbarian beasts entering the country!"

"Quickly assemble a hundred thousand Shenji troops and 20,000 heavy artillery battalions to go south."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Luo Feng generously allocated half of the standing army of the Chinese Empire, a total of 120,000 mortal soldiers equipped with firearms.

According to intelligence, the total strength of the invading Nanzhao army was no more than 50,000, including 10,000 Baimiao soldiers. It is said that the 120,000-strong army was more than enough to annihilate the enemy.

"The elite Imperial Guards will accompany the army to assist. The Shushan Feijian Battalion in the East Factory will send 200 troops, the Maha Monk Battalion in the West Factory will send 500 troops, and the Demon Vassal Army will send 3,000 troops."

In terms of high-end combat power, Luo Feng was not stingy either and sent out elite elites of extraordinary beings.

"Appoint Jing Xiaolou as the recruiting envoy for Pingman, Li Xiaoyao, the chief internal officer, as the supervisor of the army, Jiu Jianxian as the deputy recruiting envoy, Lin Tiannan as the commander of the infantry army, Shen Qingfeng as the commander of the horse army, and Zen Master Qianye as the commander of the Pingman army. Defense..."

It was another round of battlefield review. Luo Feng entrusted all the original high-level officials of the League of Legends with important tasks and gave them full power over the crusade.

As for Luo Feng himself, as the pillar of the country, of course he has to guard the base camp, perform map micro-management in the rear, and provide the most powerful support and strategic guidance to the frontline soldiers.

This shameless act of "sending you to death, I am only responsible for the BB" did not arouse the resentment of the officials. Everyone felt that it was natural and this was the right arrangement.

The war in the south is indeed a critical situation, but this does not mean that the most important minister of the Chinese Empire has to roll up his sleeves and go into battle personally. Since ancient times, general marshals and strategists have not been able to charge into battle. They are all micro-managers.

If the Prime Minister rushes to the battlefield as soon as the enemy troops enter the country, this would be an irresponsible and reckless act. Just like in the real-life war of resistance against the Empire, the princes and princesses went to the front line with their heads high to operate anti-aircraft searchlights. , but the Prime Minister was hiding in the bunker and did not dare to show his face. This was not because he was afraid of death, but because he was worried that if the think tank and decision-makers were wrong, the millions of troops would be leaderless, and the command would be completely chaotic.

Furthermore, even if Master Luo's skills have improved greatly these days for some unknown reason, and he has become the strongest man in the world, rather than relying on his force to kill the enemy on the front line, it is better to let him stay in the capital of Chang'an to calm the morale of the army.

If there are no masters in the capital of Chang'an, if the enemy secretly attacks Chencang and carries out a beheading raid, Her Majesty the Queen will be unfortunately killed. No matter how good the frontline tactics are, the strategy will be completely defeated.

As for the personal expedition that Luo Feng and Ling'er had privately mentioned, given the current actual situation, it is impossible to do so. Her Majesty the Queen is pregnant with a crucial heir to the empire. Even if she is not afraid of miscarriage and demands to go to the front line, the ministers will not be able to resist. Agree.

Today's Ling'er is not the poor and unloved little orphan girl in the original plot. She has to work overtime to kill monsters even though she has a big belly, and no one cares about her at all.

Her Majesty the Queen's safety is related to the prosperity of the country. A scratch on her little finger will cause panic throughout the country. It's too late for everyone to risk their lives to protect her, so how can they push her to the battlefield?

Soon, Luo Guoshi completed the deployment of troops and generals and formed a powerful imperial crusade army. He seriously whispered to the generals of the crusade army:

"Everyone, I will be dispatching all supplies of food, grass and baggage in the rear. I guarantee that you will have troops and food, and you will have no worries. The strategic goal of sending troops this time is to hinder the enemy's army and strive to kill the Nanzhao army. We must not miss anything when blocking the Sichuan-Chongqing line, especially the Shushan Fortress."

The generals lined up under the imperial steps looked at each other. Li Xiaoyao was young and energetic, and couldn't help but said: "National Master, our army has many generals. We have an army of 120,000 to attack 50,000 enemy troops. Why should the strategic goal be set like this?" Low? You are too underestimated of our ability!"

Luo Feng shook his head and said: "How can we underestimate the enemy's great power of calamity? Remember, do not underestimate the enemy and advance rashly. Just do your duty and guard the defense line. When Her Majesty the Queen gives birth to the princess Phoenix Body An Tai, Your Majesty and I will Personally lead the reinforcements south, and then the strategic defense will turn into a strategic offensive, and the enemy will be annihilated in one go."

Li Xiaoyao still wanted to argue, but was held back by the Jiujianxian beside him, and then he reluctantly held his hands and said: "I will obey the order."

Luo Feng took a peek and saw that except for Li Xiaoyao, the other people's expressions were not very good. The senior generals could still tolerate it, but the dissatisfaction of the middle-level officers was already palpable.

Luo Feng was about to launch his troops, but he didn't mention annihilating the enemy troops and making achievements. He only said that letting them hold the defense line in frustration would be a bit too demoralizing. Of course, these former knights, who were very high-spirited and were angered by the tragic video, were not happy.

It can almost be guessed that if these guys who think highly of themselves can abide by the rules and obey orders and defend honestly, they will have trouble. I am afraid they are not all thinking about their own calculations, thinking about marching against the orders, and then returning with glory after destroying Nanzhao. Hit Luo Feng in the face.

Even though he could see through the thoughts of the generals, Luo Feng did not tell the truth. He also took hundreds of thousands of people on the death list and voluntarily put them on the list to face the disaster. Those who should be reminded have been reminded. It can be said that the most benevolent and righteous words have been spoken in front of someone. It's no wonder that some people don't listen to the old man and insist on rushing to die.
