Chapter 1013: Besiege without Attacking, Attack without Taking

The defenders, or the defensive party, can look down from a high position and are naturally in an advantageous position despite the high walls as cover.

However, while taking advantage of the walls, the defenders are more passive than the attackers, and most of the time they are waiting for others to attack.

Of course, if you must question it, you can say that the defenders can also take the initiative to attack and catch the opponent by surprise, which is also proactive.

Yes, what I said before is also most of the time. Absolute defense is just a turtle in a jar. Only by actively defending can you be called a qualified defender.

What is active defense? Some people simply understand it as taking the initiative to attack, not passive defense.

In fact, it is a big mistake. To take the initiative to attack, you should choose a suitable time, instead of leaving the shelter of the wall because of a word from the other party. That is stupid.

Sacrifice your own strengths and fight the enemy, so what is the difference between having a wall and not having one? If you are strong enough to give up the wall, it is natural.

If there is no wall, you should stay inside the wall honestly.

The previous sharpshooter was captured by Wu Yi, which is a counterexample worth learning from.

The above are the most basic content. In fact, anyone who has read some books can understand these strategies and tactics.

The really important, or advanced version of the content, is that the general should think about how to show weakness to the enemy, make the enemy unable to see their fundamental strength, and make the other party make a wrong judgment. This is a conspiracy!

Or, clearly show your strength, the other party knows that there is danger, but has to enter the encirclement. This is the so-called attacking the enemy must save, in the idiom, called Wei to save Zhao! This is the category of open conspiracy!

Whether it is a conspiracy or an open conspiracy, it is inseparable from the word information. Advanced information has the saying of military secrets. What is a secret? The mobilization of the army, the development of new weapons, and the secret change of commanders before the war can all be classified as secrets.

Before, Wu Yi was careless and left the crowd, fell into trouble, his bones and muscles were broken, and he could not use his magic power to repair himself, and became a "useless person" lying on the bed and unable to move.

At the moment, Wu Yi should be thankful that he is not living like a bandit and starting the battle to defend Tianlang City!

Otherwise, with his current body, he can't walk far at all, and there is no way for someone to carry him on a sedan chair.

Secondly, because the army of the Rinan tribe besieged Tianlang City, the inside and outside were isolated, and Wu Yi was still able to maintain the command of this army. If there was a way to communicate with the outside world, Zhang Tianwen and others would know about Wu Yi's situation and would definitely replace him.

How could a "useless person" be qualified to lead an army!

The two big lucks actually refer to the same thing! It is that Wu Yi was forced to defend the city! This was not what Wu Yi expected, but now it has become a choice that he had to make.

The Rinan tribe was trapped on all sides, and there was no way out. Relying on the high walls, there was still a sense of security. If the soldiers were allowed to leave at this moment, I am afraid that few people would be willing.

Lucky? Maybe so in the eyes of others. Wu Yi has saved both his life and his power. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?

It's just that saving his life is good, but whether he can keep his position is a question worth thinking about.

Although Wu Yi ordered them to send the news before the army every day, so that he would not lose control of the situation while lying in bed.

However, in the past few days, the messengers were more casual when placing the letters, and they were also careless in greeting. I think everyone knows that Wu Yi's position as the commander will not last long.

Yes, you read it right. It has been several days since entering Tianlang City. With the strength of the Rinan tribe army outside the city, it is almost several times that of Wu Yi. Even if the local residents of Tianlang City join the army, it can't save much, and it is still an absolute disadvantage.

If the other party wants to attack Tianlang City by force, Wu Yi doesn't think there is hope to hold it, so Wu Yi didn't think of besieging Tianlang City before the war.

It can only be said that the situation is developing too fast, and some things can't be done if you don't want to do them.

In the past few days, judging from the news that came up, the Rinan army was seen frequently mobilizing, but they were not seen attacking the city. Even if they were attacking the city, they would only shoot a wave of arrows from a distance, and kill as many as they could, as if they were sending arrows to Wu Yi's side.

According to Wu Yi's idea, at this moment, the Rinan army was obviously not satisfied with eating Wu Yi's detachment, and they would definitely spread the news that Wu Yi and others were besieged, waiting for Zhang Tianwen to send troops to rescue them and surround and attack the reinforcements.

It was like dancing on a tightrope. If they leaned a little to the left, the Rinan tribe would win a big victory, and then they would take advantage of the situation to pull out the nail of Tianlang City, and Wu Yi would die;

If they leaned a little to the right, the Daji Dynasty would win, and then the Rinan army might not slaughter Tianlang City as a carnival before leaving. If they defended it, the day the city was opened would be the day Wu Yi returned to the fields and took off his armor.

Therefore, at this moment, for Wu Yi personally, it would be best for both sides to maintain a balance, and no one should be too strong, so that Tianlang City, although it seemed dangerous, would have its own luck and would not be destroyed.

Wu Yi's interests are like this, are the interests of others also like this? It can be seen that the Rinan army is besieging the point and attacking the reinforcements. There may be less than a handful of people in the army. Do they think highly of the Daji Dynasty or the Rinan tribe?

If they think highly of the former, they congratulate the Daji Dynasty army for entering, and if they think highly of the latter, they will use Wu Yi's head as a stepping stone and present it to the Rinan tribe.

It is normal for a team to have divergent interests. It is even unimaginable that a team without divergent interests would be like this. That is the ideal country, or the army in the eyes of children.

In Wu Yi's current state, perhaps one day, his subordinates will lead the crowd to surrender to the enemy, and Wu Yi will still be kept in the dark.

Is Wu Yi suspicious, or is this really possible? Wu Yi is unwilling to guess human nature. In short, think of the worst and make preparations early.

A few days of recovery cannot be said to be useless. Wu Yi can now at least barely lean on the bed rails behind him, but there is still a big gap from Wu Yi's goal. Hearing the news that Wu Yi can sit up, the thousand captains moved.

The Sunan army surrounded but did not attack, and attacked but did not take, which made these thousand captains who had been nervous for a long time breathe a sigh of relief.

They came to congratulate Wu Yi on his recovery, saying that they hoped Wu Yi would get better as soon as possible, but in their hearts, they might hope that Wu Yi would stay in bed and never get up.

Wu Yi thanked them one by one. Before his body fully recovered, he was still too strict, so as not to force conflicts and not be able to resolve them.

But I don’t know if anyone will regard Wu Yi’s humility as a concession and compromise?
