Chapter 826 Gayao’s dilemma

Jiayao and Yunzheng have similar ideas, and they also prefer to move on two fronts.

However, on the other side of the army, Jiayao preferred to attack, while Yunzheng preferred to defend.

After listening to Jia Yao's thoughts, Yun Zheng also expressed his own thoughts.

"Defense?"

Jiayao's eyes widened and he looked at Yunzheng in disbelief, "This is not like your style!"

She had fought against Yun Zheng many times. How often had Yun Zheng defended her?

Hasn't Yunzheng always advocated offense?

If Yun Zheng really just asked her to lead the army to defend on that front line, she would laugh out of her dreams.

For her, it is definitely much better to rely on favorable terrain to defend than to attack.

In that way, Beihuan would probably lose a lot of lives.

"There is no way of doing anything unconventional. It's all done as a last resort."

Yunzheng smiled helplessly and rubbed his head pretendingly, "If I could mobilize an army of three to five million people, I would definitely attack on two fronts. Isn't this because our troops are very limited?"

Limited troops?

How could Jia Yao believe Yun Zheng's lies?

Yun Zheng's move must have a profound meaning.

However, after much deliberation, she couldn't figure out what Yun Zheng meant by doing this.

Yun Zheng couldn't be afraid of her grabbing the spoils, right?

Just when Ga Yao was puzzled, Wang Qi and Yu Shizhong arrived.

"I've seen Mrs. Gayao..."

Both of them saluted Jia Yao.

Just as Jia Yao was about to speak, his bodyguard had already walked in with food.

"Okay, we're all acquaintances, so don't be polite! Sit down first!"

Yun Zheng invited everyone to sit down at the table, "This wine is waived. Let's have tea instead of wine."

"it is good."

Several people nodded and came to sit down at the table.

"I called you here just to ask you something."

When everyone was seated, Yun Zheng said to Yu Shizhong straight to the point: "If I order the 10,000 elite soldiers of Zulu and the 20,000 elite soldiers of Mendo to obey your orders, then I will let you lead the 15,000 cavalry of my own army plus the royal weapons department. Ministry, do you have the confidence to block any enemy attack?"

"Have!"

Yu Shizhong answered without thinking.

Looking at the confident Yu Shizhong, Ga Yao's eyes suddenly flashed.

If Yunzheng lets Yu Shizhong lead his troops to defend from another line, what will Beihuan do?

It's impossible for Yun Zheng to be so kind as to not let Bei Huan participate in the war, right?

In this case, there is only one possibility!

Yunzheng wants her to lead Beihuan's troops to attack Dayue Kingdom from the Northwest Protectorate!

Will Beihuan's vitality be consumed by a frontal attack?

Jia Yao suddenly clenched his fists and almost jumped up again and bared his teeth at Yun Zheng.

However, after hesitating for a while, Jia Yao still suppressed the idea of ​​questioning Yun Zheng.

Yunzheng's hair needs to be smoothed down!

Before you figure out the situation, let’s take a look and then talk!

"you sure?"

Yun Zheng looked serious, "I mean, any attack!"

Yunzheng emphasized deliberately.

"Any attack?"

Yu Shizhong seemed puzzled, "What specific aspects of attacks does Your Highness refer to?"

"Everyone!" Yunzheng said sternly: "Including soldiers and horses from Dayue Kingdom or various tribes in Desert West, there may also be rebels from the ghost side, and even northern barbarians, any enemies that may appear are included!"

Is that so?

Yu Shizhong thought for a moment and said confidently again: "The general will have confidence in the end!"

"Do you dare to issue a military order?"

Yunzheng asked again.

"The general is willing to issue a military order!"

Yu Shizhong didn't hesitate at all.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Jia Yao could no longer hold back and said quickly: "You don't want me to lead Beihuan's 20,000 troops to join you in attacking Dayue Kingdom from the Northwest Protectorate, do you?"

"I do have this idea."

Yunzheng nodded, raised his eyebrows and looked at Jia Yao, "Why, you don't want to?"

Sure enough!

Jia Yao's heart suddenly trembled, and he tried to calm down his emotions, shaking his head and saying: "It doesn't matter whether you want it or not! Since I, Beihuan, have become a vassal, I should obey your orders! However, I think I am fully qualified to handle the task you entrusted to General Yu! That's it! , it can also shorten the distance for troop deployment..."

Gayao is now smarter. He should first put himself in a correct position and then express his opinion.

"That's the truth, but I'm afraid you won't be able to keep it."

Yun Zheng said seriously: "You said it yourself, the ghosts may cooperate with Dayue Kingdom to attack us! In this battle, I have mobilized all the troops I can mobilize, and the rear is extremely empty! If you If we can't defend that side and let the enemy advance straight into our rear, we will probably lose this battle!"

"I can also issue a military order!"

Ga Yao answered without thinking.

"Don't rush to issue a military order yet."

Yun Zheng shook his head slightly: "Although the army along the way is mainly defensive, if there is an opportunity to attack, we still have to take the initiative to attack! I know you are afraid that I will take the opportunity to consume Beihuan's strength, but even if you are allowed to lead the other With the army all the way, your casualties may not be small! You'd better think carefully before answering!"

"This...let me think about it."

Gaoyao suddenly hesitated.

Suddenly, Jiayao realized that he had fallen into Yunzheng's trap.

No, it's not a trap, exactly.

Yun Zheng just left the choice to her.

How she chooses is entirely up to her.

If the choices you make result in heavy casualties, don't blame Yunzheng for weakening Beihuan.

This time, Jiayao was indeed in trouble.

Jia Yao thought for a while, then raised his eyes and looked at Yunzheng: "I want to hear your detailed analysis of the battle situation!"

"No specific analysis!"

Yun Zheng shook his head, "The war hasn't started yet, and none of us know what the situation will be like! Lou Yi may choose to hold back our main force in Turtle Back City and launch a large-scale counterattack against us from another direction, or he may just defend it. Turtleback City is trying its best to consume our vitality..."

How specific it is, you will only know if you fight it.

All analysis now is just conjecture.

Yun Zheng really had no intention of consuming Bei Huan's vitality this time.

But judging from the previous battles with Lou Yi, this Lou Yi is obviously also a very cunning person.

Lou Yiming knew that they would definitely launch an attack on Dayue Kingdom after the beginning of spring, but they never launched an attack on Lingzhou. In addition to preparing a large army for war, they probably had other plans.

At present, Yunzheng still can't guess Lou Yi's thoughts.

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, Jia Yao fell into silence again.

She agreed with Yunzheng's guess.

If Lou Yi had plans to counterattack from another direction and take the Beifu Army's retreat, and she led the army to resist Lou Yi's attack, there would definitely be a lot of casualties.

But if they follow Yun Zheng to attack Dayue Kingdom from Lingzhou, their casualties should not be small.

For her who is determined to preserve her vitality, this is really a difficult choice!

Jiayao kept weighing the pros and cons in her mind, and Yunzheng didn't bother her, gesturing for everyone to eat.

Let Gayao think about it slowly!

It's all up to her to decide, so that she doesn't have to be suspicious all day long...
