Fairy, Please Let Me Explain Chapter 228

  Chapter 228 Sacrifice

   "I didn't doubt your words."

  Xu Yuan smiled slightly: "Li Qingyan, as the commander-in-chief in Beifeng City, needs to stabilize the morale of the army after all, and there are many things that cannot be clearly stated."

   paused,

  Xu Yuan asked softly again:

   "Did Li Qingyan arrange scouts to investigate the barbarian army outside the city?"

  Yuan Hao did not hesitate at all:

   "Heavy snow obscured the field of vision. Immediately after the explosion in the south of the city, His Royal Highness Wu Yuan sent two teams of flying scouts to go out for reconnaissance."

   "How?" Xu Yuan asked.

   "The damage was huge, and only three of the 100 flying scouts came back"

   "Yuan Commander."

  Xu Yuan raised his hand to interrupt: "I'm not interested in casualties, what I'm asking is how many barbarian troops there are outside the city."

  Yuan Hao was slightly taken aback, feeling inexplicably apprehensive.

   It's not that Xu Yuan is cold-blooded, but that the three young masters are asking these things because they want to interfere in the military's decision-making, right?

  Thinking, Yuan Hao replied truthfully:

   "Roughly estimated, there are about 400,000 people."

"etc."

   Xu Yuan interrupted again:

   "Now that the sight is blocked by heavy snow, could the 400,000 be disguised as a straw man?"

  Yuan Hao's mouth twitched, and he cupped his hands and said:

   "Although the field of vision is obstructed, the monsters on which the flying scouts ride use their cries to scout, and it is confirmed that they are all real people."

  Xu Yuan heard the words and glanced back at Lou Ji who was standing behind him, wanting to confirm this through her.

   After meeting her eyes, Lou Ji directly transmitted the voice with a smile:

   "Not necessarily. The barbarian priests have means to hinder it. Zong Qingsheng almost suffered a big loss in this, um. He explained this to me through Tianxun Yuanjing."

  Xu Yuan nodded noncommittal after listening.

  Yuan Hao saw the two people looking at each other, and asked cautiously:

   "Third Young Master, I don't know what you are asking this for?"

  Xu Yuan looked at his expression with a clear heart, and smiled slightly:

   "Don't worry, I won't do the kind of thing that laymen command experts, just ask.

   "But since these barbarian troops are real people, almost an hour has passed now, why haven't they attacked the city yet?"

  Yuan Hao replied in a low voice when he saw this:

   "Third Young Master, preparations for the long-distance siege need to be prepared, personnel need to rest, equipment needs to be prepared, and encirclement needs time.

   "And the barbarians are now forming an array from both sides of the Beifeng City to the north to encircle the Beifeng City. It is estimated that they are preparing to block the Zongmen reinforcements who are rushing south to help, and they will attack the city."

  Classic siege to fight aid.

  Xu Yuan sighed in his heart, and asked deliberately:

"In this way, those sects nesting in Houting County, which is 300 miles away, can be regarded as being wrong? The distance of 300 miles. Even if the road is blocked by heavy snow, with the speed of those elites, they should be able to arrive in two to three days, right? "

  Yuan Hao's expression was a little stiff when asked by Xu Yuan, and he said in a low voice:

   "Third Young Master, the communication wafer in Houting County was destroyed when it was occupied last time. After His Royal Highness Wu Yuan recovered Houting County, he had no time to re-engraved it, so he had to send someone to deliver the letter."

   "However, even if the letter is delivered, the heavy snow in the north of Beifeng City is basically impossible to see from five feet away. If you rush to reinforce, it is very likely that the barbarians will directly intercept and intercept the army. At that time, the army will collapse directly."

  Xu Yuan listened carefully, then nodded slightly:

   "So I know, you go down."

  Yuan Hao felt relieved, cupped his hands and was about to leave quickly.

  At this time, Xu Yuan's voice suddenly came from behind him:

   "Yuanhao, let the black scale army in the city go out to test the barbarians outside the city."

  Yuan Hao's heart sank when he heard this order, and he didn't speak.

  Xu Yuan squinted his eyes:

   "Why didn't you answer the call?"

  Yuan Hao said in a deep voice:

   "Third Young Master, this is death."

  Xu Yuan's heartbeat accelerated slightly, and he paused every word:

   "Commander Yuan, this is a military order."

  Yuan Hao took a deep breath:

   "Will be outside, military order."

"sister!"

  Xu Yuan's tone dropped slightly, and Lou Ji locked Yuan Hao with her intentions with a smile.

  After bearing the pressure for a moment, Yuan Hao knelt on the ground overwhelmed, silent for a few breaths, gritted his teeth and said:

   "The general will be outside, and the military order must be accepted."

   When the words fall, the stress disappears.

  Xu Yuan stood up from the desk, walked up to Yuan Hao, and bent down to look at him:

   "We are old acquaintances who have worked together, and I know why you refused my military order.

   "Oh, I feel like I issued military orders indiscriminately, and laymen commanded experts to cause unnecessary sacrifices."

   As he spoke, Xu Yuan patted Yuan Hao on the shoulder, with a heavy voice:

   "Commander Yuan, you are not standing high enough now, and what you see is only a corner of a thousand miles. I can assure you that their sacrifices are necessary."

  Yuan Hao seemed to want to say something, but in the end he just asked:

   "If His Royal Highness Wu Yuan asks about this matter, how will he answer?"

   Now that Li Qingyan is in command of Beifeng City, and marching rashly, he will be held accountable.

   "Well, just say it,"

   Seeing this, Xu Yuan stood up straight and chuckled lightly:

   ". This is an order from the person in charge of our Xiangguo Mansion in the northern border."

"yes."

  Yuan Hao heard the words and made a fist-cup salute, turned around and walked out of the wing.

   "Da—"

  With the door closed,

  Xu Yuan sat straight behind the desk, leaned back on the chair lazily, and rubbed the center of his brows vigorously.

   "Long Sky."

   Lou Ji asked softly and abruptly:

   "Why didn't you just tell Yuan Hao the reason?"

   "What reason?"

   "The barbarian priest has the means to block the detection of flying scouts."

"Ah"

  Xu Yuan laughed lowly, turned his head and asked:

   "Sister, you know it's been a long time, why don't you tell them this important military situation?"

  Looking at each other, speechless.

   "giggle"

  Lou Ji smiled at Bai Meisheng, walked forward and sat down on the desk, looking at Xu Yuan with a smile: "Our parents are as cautious as my sister and me~"

  The reason is simple, Tianxun Yuanjing.

   This is the top secret among the top secrets of the Xiangguo Mansion. In this war mode where repairers need to send letters as soon as they leave the city, Tianxun Yuanjing is the trump card among the trump cards.

  There are many smart people in the world. Zong Qingsheng suffered from this loss in the depths of the northern snowfield, and they knew the news. In the future, someone will be able to reveal that Xiangguofu has mastered some kind of mobile communication method.

  Lou Ji crossed her arms and asked with a chuckle:

   "Then sister, can I ask you why you do these things?"

  Xu Yuan restrained his smile and said seriously:

   "Of course I'm afraid that the barbarian alien king will come to me to cover Chen Cang with one hand. Just now Yuan Hao also said that if the barbarians are suddenly intercepted by this natural disaster and snowstorm, the army will easily collapse."

   "If the barbarians divide their forces into two places, detour all the way to the north and seal the south of the city, and still cruising around Lord Hou and Mr. Zong all the way, if I rashly let Mr. Zong and the others come back to help, it would really be a mess."

   "It is necessary to test out the reality of the barbarians outside the city, but it is impossible to test out if there are fewer people."

   Lou Ji frowned slightly:

   "Is there any need to be so anxious? Go out of the city to test, if the barbarians really overwhelm all the tribes, at least half of this trip will not be able to come back."

  Xu Yuan lowered his head and stared at his hand, remained silent for a while, and said:

   "The barbarian detours must not have much supplies. When they encircle and attack the city, they will naturally be able to see the truth."

   As he spoke, Xu Yuan raised his eyes:

   “But now we need to race against time.”

   "Once it is confirmed that all the main forces of the barbarians have detoured through the northern city, you should immediately notify Mr. Zong to go south!"
