Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

Everyone was a little confused when they heard this.

Seeing this, Wen Chengjie did not keep the secret and spoke in a deep voice.

"Do you think the Jin soldiers chose to attack us now at random?"

"The way to command troops is nothing more than the four words wind, forest, mountain and fire."

"The Jin soldiers invaded our border this time and moved as swiftly as the wind. They were able to occupy an entire continent of our Wu country so quickly. This was not just the result of decades of planning."

"It is also a model of traveling light and keeping things simple, and using war to support war!"

Having said that, Wen Chengjie pointed to the darkness under the city wall.

"It is the autumn harvest season, and they are attacking cities and seizing land, which is a good opportunity for them to enslave the people and harvest the grain for their own use."

"Everyone, please look down. The terrain around our city is flat, with hundreds of acres of fertile farmland."

"With the current war situation, it is definitely impossible for us to go out of the city to collect food, but they can directly send people to harvest it as military rations."

"Although the gap is still huge, the food supply around the city and the nearby villages is enough for their army of more than 100,000 to have one or two full meals."

At this point, Wen Chengjie frowned and no longer paid attention to others. He looked at the dark night sky as if talking to himself.

"The Jin soldiers have been advancing eastward from Xijiang Prefecture. Their rear must have begun to rob food and establish a complete supply route."

"If the Jin soldiers advance steadily and cautiously to the city of Qingzhou, even if the Cangyun Sect burns down their food camp, they can still transfer food from Qingning County overnight."

"But the Yanzhou Army came to our aid 800 miles away. The only way for them to break through Qingzhou City is during this period of time before the Yanzhou Army arrives."

"Two days ago, the Jin soldiers arrived in Qingning County. Even if they forced the people to harvest and thresh the grain overnight, it would be impossible for them to gather food and fodder for an army of nearly 200,000 in such a short period of time."

"The Jin soldiers will attack the city tonight and will only attack the western wall so that the soldiers can rest and take turns to fight."

"This will help alleviate the fatigue caused by the long-distance march of the army to the greatest extent, and it will also prevent the defenders from resting through a rotation of battles, so that they can use their rest to defeat the exhausted soldiers in the final attack."

"But now that the granary has been burned, the follow-up food and grass cannot be delivered in time. They will definitely launch a full-scale attack tomorrow to capture the city in one fell swoop."

"There shouldn't be anything missing... There shouldn't be anything..."

Wen Chengjie seemed to be stuck in some state, constantly talking to himself.

Lu You looked in the light of the fire and saw that this young garrison officer, who had been fighting on the city wall for more than two hours without showing any signs of fatigue, actually had beads of sweat beginning to roll down his temples.

The deduction of this war is obviously an extremely energy-consuming process.

After about half a minute, Wen Chengjie finally sighed.

"It is impossible for any intelligence to come from the west of the city. This is all I can deduce."

Seeing that Wen Chengjie finally came to his senses, everyone felt relieved.

At the side, a fat man holding two iron swords spoke in a muffled voice.

"Captain Wen, according to what you just said, the Jin soldiers will attack the city in large numbers tomorrow."

"There are Jin warriors lurking in the city. They must know that the city defenders are insufficient in number."

"In this case, the longer the siege line is, the more dispersed the defenders will be, making it easier for them to capture the city."

"Then why didn't they attack the city from all sides? Instead, you speculated that they would only attack the south, west, and north sides. Is this a reconciliation?"

When they heard the warrior's question, some of the crowd were confused, but there were also many people like Lu You, with speechless eyes.

"To surround an army, one must leave a gap. This is the simplest military strategy."

"If the entire city is surrounded, the hundreds of thousands of people in the city will have no hope of escaping, and everyone will fight to the death."

"The difficulty of their attack on the city will probably be hundreds or thousands of times more difficult by then, so don't take up everyone's time with this kind of question."

Lu You couldn't help but interrupt.

The martial artist was not angry when being ridiculed by Lu You. He just crossed the two iron bones in his hands in front of his chest and saluted Lu You.

"Thank you Miss Su for clearing up my confusion. I am a rough man who only knows how to wield swords and guns every day. I really know nothing about military tactics. I am sorry to have made a fool of myself."

The people present were able to survive unscathed because each of them had taken Lu You’s powerful pills.

That was a life-saving favor, so at this moment, let alone Lu You scolding someone, even if he slapped someone, that person would not dare to resist at all.

After all, there are sixty or seventy warriors around him waiting to repay Lu You's favor. Anyone would think twice before undertaking such a situation.

When Lu You spoke, it was not just to scold people, but he had more important things to do.

"Wen Shoubei, there is something I don't understand. I would like you to clarify it in public."

"Miss Su, please speak." Wen Chengjie said seriously.

"I gave you medicine tonight on impulse. It was not part of your plan at all. So you didn't expect so many warriors in the city to survive, right?"

Lu You asked, and Wen Chengjie did not hide his answer: "That's right."

"In that case, you secretly ordered the Cangyun Sect to attack the camp, and you had already calculated that the Jin soldiers would definitely launch a large-scale attack tomorrow."

"Then I would like to ask Guardsman Wen, according to your original plan, how to resist the Jin soldiers' siege tomorrow."

"Don't tell me you don't have a backup plan. Since you dare to provoke them to attack the city, you must have a way to deal with it."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Wen Chengjie, only to see that he nodded slightly with a calm look.

"But I have a way to deal with it."

"Tell me." Lu You looked directly at Wen Chengjie and said, "No matter what your response plan is, now that there are dozens of warriors out of nowhere, it will definitely be a great help!"

Lu You’s idea is very simple, that is, he must make use of all the warriors in front of him.

It's a good idea to give them some powerful pills yourself and make everyone owe you a favor.

But Lu You only wanted to defend the city and did not want to expose too much of herself. She borrowed the name of Baicao Valley and Su Muying's name just to leave after the task was completed and to hide her achievements and fame.

But now whether Qingzhou City can be defended is related to her life.

Although these warriors helped defend the city, it was just an act of chivalry among the people of the martial arts world. When they started fighting, they just fought on their own without any organization or plan.

What he did was just to use the favor of donating the medicine to carry out moral blackmail, so that they would obey Wen Chengjie's orders for his sake.

This way everyone can play their best role and it is also a disguised way of adding a layer of insurance for one's own life.

Seeing Lu You volunteering, Xu Chu and other warriors also spoke up.

"Captain Wen, I will follow your command!"

"Tell me, what do you need us to do..."

Everyone was shouting at once, but they saw Wen Chengjie clasping his fists and shouting loudly.

"My fellow heroes, Wen's plan has already been laid, but I really cannot speak of it."

"Why?" Lu You frowned, then seemed to have thought of something and asked again: "Don't you still believe us?"

Wen Chengjie nodded seriously: "I don't believe it."

I'm pretty!!

Looking at Wen Chengjie's self-righteous look, Lu You felt like a thousand divine beasts were galloping through his heart!

Everyone was so badly injured, but Wen Chengjie still couldn't believe it.

How dark is this grandson's mind?
