"We dare not offer our opinions, but we all deeply respect Manager Lin for his leadership."
Zhong Kangshun spoke humbly and sincerely.
Then, Zhong Kangshun said solemnly, "Steward Lin, I suggest that we launch a direct attack now. While the rogue cultivator army is breaking through our defenses and suffering heavy losses, we should attack various places, so that the rogue cultivator army will be overwhelmed and unable to launch a frontal assault on us."
"Otherwise, with such a large gap between the two sides, continuing to confront each other head-on would be extremely disadvantageous for us. If we don't take risky measures, we will be suppressed and beaten."
"Especially since we are so few in number, the disparity between our strengths and weaknesses will be enormous!"
"If we don't find a way to resolve this situation, we are very likely to be pushed back, unless we seek help from the Da Yue forces, but that would also result in a huge loss of benefits..."
"Therefore, taking a risky gamble is the only way for us to overcome our current disadvantage. Although it is a risky move with enormous risks, the possibility of success is also extremely high!"
After speaking, Zhong Kangshun looked up at Lin Xiuyuan's expression and found that the other party remained calm and did not show any impatience or frown as usual, so he knew that everything was fine.
At the same time, I admired him even more.
As the first sentence stated, it came entirely from the heart. It was clear that Lin Xiuyuan's plan was sound; the retreat was complete, and now it was time to strike. All conditions were ripe!
All these events demonstrate Lin Xiuyuan's foresight and strategic thinking. He perfectly preserved his own strength, retreated to defend, then launched an attack, and now, despite the vast difference in advantages and disadvantages, he cleverly planned and executed every step of the way, perfectly arranging everything to achieve the conditions for a direct confrontation.
Now, the Cloud Soaring Sect has regained its core territory and even expanded its encroachment, laying the foundation for a counterattack.
Such a strong grasp of the big picture and such a far-sighted vision are truly admirable.
"Hmm, that's a good strategy. However, I have an idea, but I don't know if it's feasible?"
Lin Xiuyuan did not object. After thinking for a moment, an even bolder idea came to mind.
Upon hearing this, Zhong Kangshun's expression shifted. He looked at Lin Xiuyuan, feeling somewhat uneasy. He had just been thinking that Lin Xiuyuan had an excellent grasp of the overall situation, bringing the conditions for battle to the optimal level... Could he be backing down again?
Could it be that all my previous thoughts were just wishful thinking?
Zhong Kangshun's expression turned noticeably grim, and he said, "Manager Lin, why don't you speak first?"
Lin Xiuyuan didn't pay attention to the other party's change in expression, and smiled as he said:
"Wait a minute, I still have a few doubts. Since you and I can both see that the rogue cultivator army is currently exhausted and can catch them off guard, just as you suggested, Protector Zhong, we can divide our forces to attack, either to disperse the enemy army or to keep them busy with reinforcements, giving us the opportunity to defeat them one by one and reverse the situation!"
"However, this is quite risky, and it will take a long time. If the Loose Cultivator Alliance gains the upper hand at the front and has to call back troops, this move will be a terrible mistake. I wonder if Protector Zhong has considered this point?"
Because of his past life experience, he was born with a very strong sense of the big picture.
However, when it comes to details or planning, Zhong Kangshun is the real expert!
Now that he has reached the counterattack stage, he naturally has to rely on Zhong Kangshun's insight.
However, Lin Xiuyuan was still recovering and recuperating and did not know the specific situation at present, so he was somewhat worried about whether the conditions were right.
Before expressing your ideas and implementing them, you must carefully consider them.
"Yes, Manager Lin has hit the nail on the head. However, I have already taken these factors into account, and the conditions are ripe."
Zhong Kangshun nodded and continued, "First of all, although our side has suffered considerable losses after several rounds of defense, it is far less than that of the scattered cultivators' army, since they are the ones launching the fierce attack. As for Protector Pang and the others, I just asked them, and they are in similar condition to Steward Lin. Although they are not at their peak, they have recovered to about 70-80%, which is enough to fulfill the conditions for a surprise attack by splitting forces!"
After saying this briefly, Zhong Kang explained to Lin Xiuyuan in detail, saying, "Because we are not fighting to the death between two sides, the ultimate goal is to take back the territory. If we can control those resources, then the overall advantage or disadvantage will not have such a big impact."
"Aside from overwhelming superior combat power, a war is essentially a test of one's foundation. Just like the war between the righteous and the demonic forces, the century-long conflict has caused the medium and large-sized forces under each side to begin to falter. The fact that their war has continued to this stage is actually a test of their foundation."
"The same principle applies to our current situation, especially the Loose Cultivator Alliance. What is the fundamental reason they were able to gather together? It's nothing more than resources. As long as they occupy the resource areas and hold on to them, it will be the most fatal blow to the Loose Cultivator Alliance."
"Secondly, as mentioned above, a direct confrontation is extremely disadvantageous. A strategy of dividing forces would be the best course of action!"
"Thirdly, in terms of the situation, there are still many local forces in our Great Yue in Fengxia Mountain, mainly the Jade Cauldron Pill Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect. They have formed an alliance to advance and retreat together."
"Therefore, the other side will not ignore this point. Fearing that we will attract reinforcements, they will definitely send people to the resource area to provide support. In this way, we can achieve the strategy of splitting our forces to attack."
Hearing Zhong Kangshun's words...
Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but show a hint of admiration in his eyes. No wonder he was such a talented general.
He hadn't even considered so many factors.
But the other party had considered everything thoroughly!
Lin Xiuyuan nodded in agreement on the spot. With such a meticulous strategic plan, it was only right to follow the plan of such a talented general.
