Chapter 2381 Li Yun's thoughts
Li Yun has been studying for several years but failed to get a good fortune. However, he did not think that there was something wrong with his ability, but felt that the examiner did not know how to appreciate his talents.
After giving up the exam and getting fame, Li Yun joined a wealthy family as a teacher. Later, the wealthy family was snatched by Wei San and Li Yun was arrested. Shortly after he was arrested, Li Yun joined Wei San's camp.
With his relatively flexible brain, Li Yun was doing well under Wei San's hands, and also contributed a lot to Wei San's expansion, and he also gained Wei San's trust.
"Oh, military advisor, what do you think?" Wei San asked hurriedly.
Wei San still respects his military advisor very much. He knows his situation, has strength but does not have much wisdom. Therefore, many times, he will follow the advice of this military advisor.
Previously, including a surprise attack on the southern neighboring city, there were also suggestions from military advisors.
Li Yun looked at Wei San's eyes and felt very dissatisfied. He smiled and said, "From the news we have learned, the Minister of War in our court does not seem to take us seriously. Not long after we took the Nanling City, he has led his army to conquer, and there is no mobilization or preparation at all."
Wei San nodded and said, "That's the case, but this is normal. To put it bluntly, we all have mud legs. We have no way to compare with the regular army of the court. Therefore, it is normal for the generals of the court to look down on us. The Minister of War has used so many troops to attack us at once, which is considered to be a very important thing."
Wei San naturally knew their own situation and it was okay to fight the militias in villages and towns. If they really fought with the regular army of the court, they would not have much chance of winning. Therefore, the imperial army did not take them seriously. Wei San felt that it was normal and he was not despised.
"This is our opportunity!" Li Yun said: "Then Li Yang must feel that we dare not take the initiative at this time, we only dare to hide in the city and defend the city."
Wei San nodded again. Indeed, facing this army of more than 100,000, no one would think that they dared to go out of the city to fight. Wei San himself never thought about it unless they were crazy.
"That's why I said, this is our opportunity." Li Yun smiled and said, "They think we dare not leave the city, so we will go the other way, take the initiative to attack, and ambush them halfway!"
After hearing Li Yun's words, Wei San was shocked and instinctively wanted to object, but when he spoke, he swallowed it back.
He hesitated and moved!
Li Yun said it right. Anyone who is a normal person will think this way. After all, in previous battles, the regular army could basically win the rebel army in the face of them. In addition, Li Yang personally led the troops this time, and the number of troops was more than their rebel army, so there was no reason not to win.
It is precisely because of this that no one thinks that Wei San will take the initiative to attack. After all, with a city as a support, they still have some chance of winning. If they take the initiative to leave the city, there will be no city wall to use. Isn’t this just seeking death?
It is precisely everyone who thinks so. If they take the initiative, they will definitely be beyond everyone's expectations!
"What you said makes sense." Wei San said: "But even if we caught them off guard, our strength is not as good as them. When they recover, we will still lose."
Indeed, in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies are useless. They can indeed catch the other party off guard, but if the other party reacts, the battle will still develop in a direction that is beneficial to Li Yang and the others.
"Chief, you forgot that we still have tens of thousands of defenders in the south-next city!" Li Yun smiled and said, "The combat effectiveness of the defenders in the south-next city is not inferior to that of the imperial capital! Moreover, the number is quite large, and with our assistance from the side, it is not impossible to win the army from the imperial capital. I even think that the possibility of our winning is greater than that of the imperial capital army!"
"Yes!" Wei San's eyes lit up when he heard Li Yun's words: "Why didn't I expect it!"
Wei San instinctively only considered the strength comparison between his subordinates and Li Yang, but forgot that they had just persuaded a group of tens of thousands of troops to surrender. These troops are also regular troops. Moreover, these troops have often fought wars in recent years to wipe out the surrounding uprising troops. Therefore, their practical experience is very rich. At this point, the army of the imperial capital cannot compare with. After all, no uprising troops dared to go near the imperial capital in recent years. In this way, the defenders near the imperial capital naturally have no chance of actual combat. In this way, their combat effectiveness is not necessarily as strong as those of the defenders in the southern city.
In addition, in terms of number, they are actually not at a disadvantage. There are tens of thousands of defenders in Nanling City, and Wei San's own army still has tens of thousands, which is definitely more than 100,000. Although Wei San's army's combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the defenders in Nanling City and the army of the imperial capital, it is still possible to assist from the side and fight and assist.
Therefore, even if they do not have the advantage in terms of quantity, they are definitely not at a disadvantage.
In addition, they can take the initiative to attack and catch the opponent off guard. In this way, no matter how you look at it, they have a greater chance of winning.
Li Yun smiled proudly and said, "We have already shocked the government and the people who have taken down the southern city. The rebels in the world will definitely take us as their banner. If we can defeat the 100,000 troops from the court, our prestige will be raised to an unparalleled height. At that time, the rebels in the world will come to surrender one after another. At the same time, the rebels in the court will not despise us and dare not attack us easily."
"Not bad!" Wei San said: "As long as we win this battle, everything will be different. It not only proves that we have the strength to defeat the regular army of the court on the front battlefield, but also can completely control the southern city. At that time, it will be very easy to recruit the rebel army in the world."
Wei Sanyue said the more excited he was. As long as they won this battle, there would definitely be many benefits, and they even had the opportunity to realize greater ambitions.
"However, the defenders in the southern city have just surrendered to us. Will they obey our orders?" Wei San said with some concern.
"As long as we firmly control their relatives, even if they don't want to, they have to listen to us!" Li Yun said.
