Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

Li Chen's words made Zhu Youjian even more nervous.

After looking at the map, he also found that Taizu was right.

Although the two states can provide reinforcements, the troops they can mobilize are limited.

Once you leave the town, you won't lose your life.

"Why don't we let Mao Wenlong lead his troops to evacuate Pi Island now?"

"At present, the Tatar forces have not been deployed yet, it is too late!"

"As long as we withdraw into the Liaodong defense line, if the Tatars still hang on, they can just attack."

Zhu Youjian stared at the map for a long time and then said with some urgency.

The Dongjiang Army has no room for error!

And he had just consecrated the Dongjiang Army as one of the Four Elephant Legions.

Wouldn't it be a joke if someone beat him up?

"withdraw?"

"You're still too impatient."

"Yu Jian, please tell me."

Li Chen glanced at Zhu Youjian and was speechless.

This kid is still so anxious after studying for so long.

The most important thing in fighting is mentality.

If the mind is confused, then defeat is naturally not far away.

"Taizu...I don't think Mao Wenlong can withdraw."

"Once they withdraw, the Tatars' strategic intention will be achieved."

"They will definitely take the opportunity to occupy Phi Island."

"And the geographical location of Phi Island is not only a threat to the Tatars, but also a great threat to us."

"The most important thing is that once occupied, it will be very difficult for us to counterattack."

"After all, Piedao is easy to defend but difficult to attack."

Zhu Yujian, who had been silent for a long time, looked at the map and then shook his head.

Can't withdraw!

If we lose Pi Dao, we will be too passive later on.

"You see, Yu Jian sees the long term better than you."

"The leather island cannot be lost."

"At least it can't be lost so easily."

Zhu Yujian's words made Li Chen very satisfied.

I couldn't help but give a few words of praise.

This actually made Zhu Yujian a little embarrassed to spare his head.

"Taizu, although I think Pi Dao cannot be lost."

"But I can't figure out how to keep Dongjiang Army and Pidao at the same time."

"And I have the same view as His Majesty. The Dongjiang Army is more important than Phi Island."

"If I could only choose one thing, I would choose to abandon the island and save the Dongjiang Army."

The second half of this sentence immediately resonated with Zhu Youjian.

Of course he also knows the importance of Pi Island.

After all, the first thing Taizu did after waking up was to comfort Mao Wenlong.

But the problem is how to keep both at the same time!

"That's it."

"If possible, I don't want to lose Pidao."

"But the Dongjiang Army is more important."

Looking at Zhu Youjian who agreed, Li Chen laughed twice.

This guy fits the bill pretty quickly...

"Of course we know that this island is extremely important."

"But don't be too hasty before making a decision."

"Especially for such a strategic location, we need to think carefully."

"Don't give up easily after trying something."

Li Chen certainly knew the importance of this island.

Historically, if it were not for the stuck island, it would still be a question whether the Liaodong defense line could withstand it.

What he wanted to remind was that Zhu Youjian was too impatient.

It is too easy to be led away by being prepared to give up important territory at the first sign of trouble.

"Listen carefully."

"Your choice is not wrong. After all, if you save people and lose land, you will keep both people and land; if you save land and lose people, you will lose both people and land!"

"Of course, the prerequisite for giving up the important land is that there are no good choices in hand."

"Youjian, didn't we teach you before?"

"Judge before encountering trouble and analyze your opponent's intentions!"

"Now, Hou Jin's intention is obviously to surround the point and provide reinforcements."

"Then the first thing we have to do in this situation is to count all the forces we can use!"

Li Chen coughed slightly, and the volume increased a lot.

Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian immediately looked serious and listened attentively.

They knew that Taizu was teaching them how to march and fight.

"First of all, there are two common points."

"Strength and provisions."

"The other party has a total of 13 people, and the food and grass can last for a month at most."

"And the food and grass on Pi Island can only last for up to fifteen days due to the reward order."

"This should be what those Tatars are targeting."

"Because of the reward order, those stragglers who attack will basically carry more than ten days of rations."

"And this resulted in not much food being stored on the island in a short period of time."

"In this case, we got an important result, that is, there is insufficient food in Pi Island. If we want to hold on, we must solve the problem within fifteen days."

"Otherwise, once food is cut off, neither Pidao nor the Dongjiang Army can survive."

Li Chen didn't pay attention to the changes in their expressions.

He quickly pointed at the map and analyzed it.

When fighting a war, look at food first. This is the most basic thing.

"With this basic conclusion, all our plans must be completed within fifteen days."

"And there are only two options. The first is to find a plan that can solve the trouble within fifteen days and let the Tatars get out of their own way."

"The second is to ask Mao Wenlong to withdraw from Pidao within two days."

"Let's not talk about evacuation. If you want to use the first method, the success rate of this plan must be high! Otherwise, you will easily lose your wife and lose your troops."

"Then what we have to do now is to liquidate all the combat power in our hands."

"Let's see if we can find a way."

"First of all, there are 8 soldiers in the Beijing camp and [-] white soldiers, totaling [-] horses."

"Secondly, Lu Xiangsheng still has Tianxiong troops that he can use. The cavalry and infantry plus one will be calculated as [-]."

"Add Mao Wenlong's [-] troops and the defenders of the Liaodong defense line."

"If we use our full strength, we can gather 20 people."

"This still does not include the strength of the guard station."

"In terms of total strength, we definitely have an advantage."

"But the problem is that Lu Xiangsheng's troops cannot be moved to defend Mongolia."

"On the capital side, at least 3 people need to be left for defense."

"Otherwise something could happen."

"After calculation, to be conservative, we can only mobilize up to 5 people to support the Liaodong defense line."

"Plus one plus, under normal circumstances in the Liaodong region we can only gather 15 people."

"The advantage against the Tatars' 13 is not that big."

Li Chen's analysis was very detailed, and both Zhu Youjian and Zhu Youjian listened very carefully.

Taizu's thinking was indeed much clearer than theirs.

After such analysis, they also clearly saw the overall situation.

"Huh...it's not easy..."

"The troops in Liaodong are not very powerful, Mao Wenlong is besieged again, and there are new soldiers in the Beijing camp who need to be tempered."

"The only ones who can really fight are the white pole army, and more than half of the white pole army are new recruits..."

"If you fight head-on, you may not be able to defeat..."

Zhu Youjian finally understood Taizu's thinking.

Following Taizu's words, he continued to say two sentences.

After saying that, his face became even uglier.

Although the Tatars are also good and mixed, Houjin and the people of those tribes are half soldiers and half dragons.

If they were all new recruits, their combat effectiveness would definitely be better than their own.

With the Dongjiang Army trapped on Pi Island, it would be difficult for the White Army to take advantage even if they all come out.

"Yes, that's right."

"You may not be able to win if you fight head-on, and you can't use all the White Army to rescue the Dongjiang Army, right?"

"Then there's no difference between winning and losing."

"These Tatars are very smart. If we guessed correctly, the main force of the Eight Banners of the Tatars must be on the periphery."

"You can't even hit me if you want to."

"If we use the White Army to attack those [-] miscellaneous troops, the Tatars may not be able to wake up with a smile. At worst, they will return to Shenyang without any loss at all."

"So, this situation cannot be broken without a strange move."
