Chapter 894 (2/2)
Lu Ziming shook his head and said he didn't know at all.
”When the first three armies defected and fled from Jincheng, the number of each army was no more than 5000. As far as I know, the three armies were in a bad situation at the beginning. Although they incorporated some surrounding civilian armed forces, their overall strength did not rise but fell due to long-term fighting with surrounding mutant creatures. Now the active force should not exceed 3000 or 4000, that is to say, these three armies The team can send up to 2000 soldiers for long-distance operations. Is it possible for such a small force to attack Xincheng? ”
After listening to Zhang Yechang's words, Lu Ziming put down half his heart: ”what do you mean, these two armies can't fight head-on at all, and they can undertake the task of sneak attack at most?”
”No...!” Zhang Yechang shook his head and said calmly, ”they won't even take part in the sneak attack?”
”Why?”
”Let's assume the troops of jiutun attacking Xincheng...” Zhang Yechang saw that the more worried Lu Ziming was, the slower he spoke: ”First of all, we have calculated how many troops the old village can send. The maximum is 8000, which is the limit of the old village. If the plain base still exists, we can also send four or five thousand people, plus four thousand of the other two armies, the total force will reach about 16000. This is not a small strength. Xincheng can't stop it...”.
”But now the plain base army does not exist. The number of troops attacking Xincheng has been reduced by four or five thousand, which is equal to one-third less. The situation has been reversed at once. Among these armies, the plain base has the strongest combat effectiveness, followed by the other two armies. The combat effectiveness of jiutun can only be at the bottom. It's hard to say how much 8000 people can play Let's look back. The purpose of the other two armies is that if the war goes well, these two armies will take advantage of the fire, but if the combat effectiveness of jiutun is too weak, what will happen if these two armies are the main attack? Attacking Xincheng will inevitably pay a heavy price. Do you think they will do so? ”
Lu Ziming shook his head and still didn't understand what Zhang Yechang wanted to express!
”All right! Transposition thinking, if you command these two armies, you have to pay a heavy price and sacrifice at least more than half of your troops, but you end up making wedding clothes for others, would you do so?”
”Of course not!”
Lu Ziming has understood Zhang Yechang's meaning. These two armies are here to make soy sauce. If they can take advantage of it, they will naturally help jiutun attack Xincheng. If the war comes to an impasse, the two armies can't fight with their old capital and Lu Ziming.
Zhang Yechang said with a smile: ”if there are three armies, we should be careful, but now there are two armies. Do you think these two armies will be wary of the other army...”.
Lu Ziming patted his forehead and had a new understanding of Zhang Yechang. Old slick is old slick. Even his opponent calculated.
”These three armies are all rebels. They have conflicts with Li Juan. Do you think they will sincerely help Li Juan fight Xincheng? This is one of them. Second, these three armies will guard against each other. Once their strength is damaged, how can the rebels let go of the opportunity of annexation? So they won't fight at all. It's just a bluff because of the pressure of the Military Commission. Really If we fight, we will certainly push three obstacles and delay time. We will never fight with Xincheng... ”
