"No, even if we hold our ground here, it will be difficult to secure our position. The eastern border of the Lingyan Mountains is currently embroiled in a major battle, and the demonic army could return at any time. If they join forces with the forces in the Lingyan Mountains, our defenses in the Liushi Mine will be insufficient to withstand the attack, and we will only be able to passively endure the onslaught."
"We need to build more defensive lines in front of each other, so that the enemy will be wary and dare not launch a full-scale attack. In such a situation, what defensive line is better suited for building a formation than resource-rich areas?"
Although Lin Xiuyuan had personal reasons, he would not disregard the overall situation.
Of course, personal reasons also accounted for a significant portion of the factors.
But overall, as Lin Xiuyuan said, it is indeed necessary to send troops again under the current circumstances!
Just as the original strategic objective was intended, the Liushi Mine serves as the central hub of the Lingyan Mountains. Attacking this location would choke the enemy and tie down most of their forces.
The location here allows for either a retreat to sweep across the surrounding areas or an advance to penetrate deep into the heart of the territory...
However, the strategic nature of the Liushi Mine is the same for both sides.
Currently, the Nine Kingdoms Alliance has reached an agreement and gathered a large number of troops. Even two or three of the chiefs, such as Zhu Yuanqing, have arrived and are leading troops at the border to intercept the demonic forces for the Yunxiao Sect.
They certainly couldn't just sit back and reap the benefits.
Once the main force of the demonic forces breaks through the border and joins Wu Xingteng and his group, the number of enemies will increase several times over.
With their advantage gone, the Cloud Soaring Sect switched entirely to defense, making it impossible for them to launch a counterattack.
Resource areas need to be defended, so it's impossible to station too many people in the scree mine.
At that time, it will be just like the Cloud Soaring Sect's attack on Wu Xingteng and his group at the Flowing Stone Mine a few days ago.
The positions of the two sides will be completely reversed.
The location of the Liushi Mine is too crucial to be lost; if it is lost, the other resource sites will be undefendable.
However, holding onto the scree mine would only allow them to passively defend themselves...
The only option is to build more defenses and form multiple lines of defense to resist the resurgence of the demonic forces.
Lin Xiuyuan continued, "Therefore, if we want to completely seize the benefits of the Lingyan Mountains, we need to adjust our strategy. Next, we will be mobilizing more manpower from the rear. We hope that everyone can also send letters to the Yanjing Secret Realm to arrange for more people to join our Yunxiao Sect. Only in this way can we safely take this piece of the pie."
After listening to Lin Xiuyuan's two remarks, everyone seemed to be deep in thought.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiuyuan had considered things so far ahead. For a moment, they were filled with admiration and nodded in agreement.
"I see. Manager Lin really has a long-term vision. I admire him."
"Indeed, if we want to secure our interests in the Lingyan Mountains, we must be wary of the demonic army on the border. We need to weaken those demonic forces first!"
"…………"
"Protector Zhong, go and take a look at the army's organization, then come back and report to see when we can launch our attack!"
Lin Xiuyuan gave Zhong Kangshun some instructions.
"Yes, I'll go and inspect it later." Zhong Kangshun nodded in agreement.
Although they had gained a comprehensive advantage in the previous battles, Lin Xiuyuan launched several surprise attacks, resulting in injuries to many of his men. The capture of resource areas also inevitably involved casualties.
It is clear that a full recovery cannot be achieved in just a few days.
We need to reorganize now and see if we can gather enough people.
