ecause no one will put all the troops under the enemy's noses. Isn't that what they want to die for.
However, even if it is only a rough number, it is still more than double the number of troops left on their side.
"Third brother, do you really want to counterattack the cliff water pass?"
Ling Yun's face dignified asked.
This is a very serious issue.
If they choose to garrison yashuicheng, with the current strength of the Xingyao Empire expeditionary force, they absolutely dare not attack.
Because Yashui city is not a cliff water pass, even if it is besieged, they also have enough supplies of food and grass, and the imperial city of the Huangyuan Empire sent troops to reinforce it.
But after all, this is a choice that does not seek merit, but seeks no fault.
Because Lingyun really lost the cliff pass.
Lingxiao recaptured the cliff water pass, which made up the most, it was Lingyun's fault, not Lingxiao's own fault.
"Don't you want to take back what you lost?" Ling Xiao looked up at Lingyun.
"Of course I want to, but I'm more afraid to lose what's left now." Ling Yun sighed and looked at the direction of the cliff water pass.
With their present strength, it is not easy to recapture the cliff pass.
In the battle of siege, the siege side has always had to be several times the strength of the garrison before he is qualified to talk about forcible siege.
Otherwise, they will have to keep the defenders in the city.
Now Ling Xiao wants to use 100000 troops to attack the 250000 strong cliff pass. This is no longer a matter of self-confidence or conceit. It is simply a daydream.
In case the remaining force is damaged at the cliff pass.
Even the cliff water city will give up to the expeditionary army of Xingyao empire.
"I know what you're worried about, and I agree with you." Ling Xiao naturally understands what Ling Yun is worried about.
This is also a matter that must be considered as a manager.
But Ling Xiao didn't think so.
When it comes to the question of the boundary of the Huangyuan Empire, we should never give in to any land, and we should haggle over every penny.
"But the cliff pass should not be allowed out." Ling Xiao's words turn.
"Of course I know, but this is the point. What's the use of saying these things? When I return to the Imperial City in the future, my father will punish me. Why do you have to do such a thankless thing?" Ling Yun persuades.
It's not that Ling Yun lacks courage.
It is a war that can be seen by all discerning eyes that it is bound to be defeated, and there is no need to fight at all.
"Well, you give me 20000 troops, plus the cavalry I lead as advance troops. If you can't do anything, I believe that the rest of the troops you lead will be enough to guard the city."
Ling Xiao pondered for a moment and made a proposal.
"Third brother, there is no need to make unnecessary sacrifice at this time." Lingyun said angrily.
It's a daydream to fight the cliff pass with 100000 troops.
I'm afraid we can't even dream of using 30000 troops as the advance troops to attack the cliff pass.
"is it unnecessary to sacrifice? It's not your has the final say, you will not give these twenty thousand forces." Ling Xiao looks at Lingyun's eyes and asks seriously.
Lingyun also did not dodge straight back.
But in the end, he was defeated.
"I'll give it."
After Lingyun said this sentence, it was like being pulled out of strength, and sat down on the chair.
Judging from the fact that Ling Xiao received him to break through the encirclement, there was no problem in allocating the 20000 troops to Ling Xiao.
