Before joining the Southern Cross Fleet, Maplehara Manyo had been hiding on Kaiji Island for a period of time, and had some friendship with the living goddess Komiya Shinkai of Kaiji Island and the general Goro.

Because of this, after making up his mind to go to the resistance, Niwa quickly went to the outlying island to meet Beidou, and asked her to find Manyo as a guide as quickly as possible from the fleet anchored off the coast of Inazuma.

Facts have proved that this decision is correct.

Although they have gained great advantages in the battle against the shogunate army, the resistance army can still only be regarded as a grassroots team. The Coral Palace is only the nominal leader, and the more than ten thousand professional warriors who are the most elite and most meritorious under his command only obey the Coral Palace on the surface, but in fact they listen to the instructions but not the propaganda.

In this mixed resistance army, it was only thanks to the guidance of an old acquaintance, Manyo, that Niyu successfully met the nominal leader of the resistance army, the goddess and miko of Kaiji Island, Coral Palace Shinkai.

General Goro, who followed Shinkai, was extremely happy about Manyo's arrival. Although it was not convenient to directly drag Wanyo to reminisce about the past in a formal occasion, his big fluffy tail kept wagging behind him.

After more than half a year of spreading, Niwa's reputation has been heard even on Kaiji Island. After a brief introduction to each other, with Manyo's guarantee, he won the opportunity to have a private conversation with Xinhai and Goro.

Hutao and Abedo were not good at military affairs, so they simply left the military tent and went to the camp.

"Lord Coral Palace, I'm here to advise you to withdraw your troops." Niwa said bluntly.

Goro was shocked when he heard this and couldn't help but look at Wanyo secretly.

Xinhai's expression showed no surprise at all, and he just said calmly: "Can you tell me the reason?"

Niwa said sternly: "First of all, you are launching an unwinnable war. As long as General Raiden is still at the castle tower, you cannot win even if you have thousands of troops. If you continue to fight like this, in addition to increasing casualties, there will be no Practical significance.”

Xinhai's expression remained unchanged and he continued to ask: "What else?"

"The second thing is that the logistics of the resistance army are extremely lacking, right? This weakness has been understood by the shogunate army. If my guess is correct, Kujo Sanra's tactics these days should be to stick to you firmly and make it impossible for you to attack. You can't get out even if you go in, right? If you continue to fight, you will only be dragged to death here."

After hearing this, Wulang on the side tried hard to hide his expression, but the hair on his tail couldn't help but stand up.

When Niyu saw this, he knew that he had guessed correctly.

He did not mention the speculation that the shogunate army might be preparing to forcefully break into the waters of Qinglai Island and outflank Nashi Beach from the south. Because he has no solid evidence in his hand, relying only on guesswork is not conducive to gaining people's trust.

At this time, Xinhai slowly stood up and saluted Niwa solemnly, "Thank you sir for the reminder. Now I believe that you really want to help us."

Niyu quickly stood up and returned the salute, "Then please, Mr. Coral Palace, arrange the withdrawal of troops as soon as possible!"

Unexpectedly, Xinhai slowly shook his head, "I'm afraid things are not that simple... Sir, you must have met people from the Ronin sect when you came here, right?"

"You are also Mondstadt's general, and you should know that an army with internal discord, if it keeps attacking and winning consecutively, can rely on victory to suppress all internal problems, but once it retreats, it is likely to turn into a rout."

"Now that the Ronin Faction has made outstanding achievements, even a large number of officers and soldiers of the Coral Palace Faction are feeling proud. If we announce a retreat at this time, I am afraid it will arouse strong opposition from the entire army and lead to chaos in the morale of the army."

Niyu was slightly stunned by what she said, and it took him a while to realize that he had made a fatal mistake!

The timeline at this time is more than a year earlier than the original work. The resistance army has just officially raised the flag of rebellion. Coral Palace Xinhai has not yet been able to prove her commanding talents in the long war!

In short, although Xinhai has a noble status today, he is only trusted as a leader. His military talents have not been recognized and he has not yet been able to master the military morale!

If the original story line is followed, it will take more than a year of brutal training before Xinhai and Wulang can truly become the military core of the entire resistance army and win the morale of the military!

What's even more fatal is that in the changed world, the person who led the people to win consecutive battles in the early stage has become the Ronin sect's Iwazo Mitsuzo! When it comes to prestige in the military, Iwazo Mitsuzo is the well-deserved number one among the resistance!

If Iwazo Mitsuzo opposes the withdrawal of troops, then at least the top brass of the resistance will have a dispute due to differences of opinion! If this drags on for a few days, I'm afraid Ying Sijin's army will be able to outflank him!

Seeing that Niwa was silent, Xinhai knew that he had understood the problem and spoke again: "Besides, if we withdraw our troops at this time, all the land we occupied in the early stage will be abandoned."

"Needless to say Tatarsha, the town of Baling Island has been destroyed and it is impossible to station a large army. In this case, we must withdraw the entire army to Haiji Island."

"Not only the Ronin faction, but also no one on Haizhi Island can accept this result."

Niyu took a long breath, nodded and said: "Then what is Coral Palace-sama's decision?"

Xinhai sighed slightly: "Actually, I am also inclined to withdraw the troops. As long as the entire army can be withdrawn to Kaiji Island, the severely damaged shogunate army will not have any extra troops to pursue us. Then the town of Yaoji Island will be slowly restored, and then Trying to occupy Hachi Island and confront the shogunate army is the safest strategy."

"But Mr. Iwazo has a completely different view. He believes that we should defeat the Kujo Formation House with all our strength, and then use it as a stronghold to confront the shogunate army across the sea. In this way, the vast land of Yaojima Island and Kannazuka will be under our control Once occupied, the army’s logistical problems will naturally be solved.”

Among Inazuma's six islands, Qing Lai Island and Tsurukan Island are extremely underworld places. There are no people inhabiting them at all. The only inhabited islands are Narukami Island, Kannazuka, Yaoji Island, and Kaiji Island. Big island.

Narukami Island is naturally the core area, with a population of more than one million, accounting for one-third of the entire Inazuma.

The Tatar sand of Kannazuka is the smelting and forging center of Inazuma. There are about 70 craftsmen and villagers. It is the second most populous island and has good natural conditions.

Due to the remnants of the Hakushin Island, although the natural conditions are better than those of Kannazuka, the population of Haji Island has never been large, with only more than 50, which is smaller than Haji Island.

However, many of the residents of Haji Island have the ancestry of Haji Islanders, and they tend to favor Haji Island in terms of public sentiment.

If the Kujo Formation House can really be captured, the population controlled by the resistance army will exceed that of the shogunate army. If Thor does not participate in the war, the resistance will take full control of the war!

But the premise of all this is that the resistance army can break through the Kujo Formation House before the supplies are exhausted!

Obviously, Xinhai has no confidence in this.

She knows better than anyone else that Kujo Sora is an extremely difficult opponent!
