Chu Zhiyuan was clad in a Da Lie armor.
The armor differed from the Da Jing style; it had a hard plate in the front and back, while the limbs were covered in soft cloth.
This made it lighter, but the protection was significantly reduced.
The helmet was a half-helmet, protecting only the upper part of the head, leaving the neck exposed.
A tall red tassel, resembling a rooster's comb, adorned the top of the helmet, making it extremely conspicuous.
Standing on the high platform of the military camp's training ground, Chu Zhiyuan slowly addressed the thousand-plus Phoenix Camp soldiers: "This operation is a surprise attack on Da Lie Dynasty's Nanyun Island."
The crowd immediately showed expressions of confusion and surprise.
They didn't know where Nanyun Island was, only hearing the three words 'Da Lie Dynasty'.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "The court has received information that the Da Lie Dynasty and the Da Guang Dynasty intend to join forces with the Da Meng Dynasty while our Da Jing is at war with them, attacking us from both sides."
"Attack us?!"
"Da Lie and Da Guang want to attack our Da Jing?"
"Really? Do they have the guts!"
"I don't think so, right?"
"They must be incited by Da Meng, their heads are overheated, they are small and ignorant!"
"They are just some people blinded by profit!"
"They deserve a beating!"
"We must teach them a lesson!"
Chu Zhiyuan stood tall and straight on the high platform, calmly and composedly surveying the crowd.
Behind him stood Zou Fang and Bai Ningyu, as well as Guo Chi and the other three.
In addition, there were four Grandmasters in the shadows, including Huang Cheng. He never hesitated to seek help from Grandmasters, and the Grandmasters from the Grandmaster's Mansion were dispatched for him the most times.
/"
This time, he requested at least four Grandmasters, and Chu Qingyan readily agreed.
They also wanted to see the true quality of the Phoenix Camp, to see if it was truly up to the task.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Our mission is to disrupt their plan, to prevent them from daring to cross the line."
"General, what should we do?" someone asked loudly.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "So, we must strike first, we can't wait for them to act and then passively respond... We are wearing Da Lie armor, do you think we should sneak into the Da Lie Dynasty and launch a surprise attack, or go directly to attack the Da Guang Dynasty, thereby triggering a continuous war between the two dynasties?"
The crowd immediately began to discuss.
Bai Ningyu opened his mouth, then closed it again.
He strongly disagreed with Chu Zhiyuan's approach.
Usually, such matters were discussed between the general and several adjutants, and then a general plan was decided.
The soldiers below were to follow orders, not needing to know too much.
They were even deliberately kept from knowing too much. The more they knew, the more complex their thoughts, the more distractions, the more detrimental to the operation.
Chu Zhiyuan, however, went against the grain, deliberately revealing the operation plan.
He even wanted the soldiers to discuss and express their own opinions, which was truly unique.
On the training ground, for a time, it was a buzzing cacophony.
Between each other, in units of small teams, they discussed internally, and when that wasn't enough, they discussed between teams.
Most people felt that they should directly launch a surprise attack on the Da Guang Dynasty's border troops, catching them off guard, and then quickly retreat.
How could the Da Guang Dynasty be willing to accept this? They would definitely retaliate and counterattack Da Lie.
The two dynasties were originally sworn enemies, and this move was like throwing a spark into oil, instantly creating a raging fire.
Da Lie and Da Guang would once again start a great war, and for a time, they would have no time to worry about Da Jing's eastern border.
When Da Jing freed up its hands, it would be good to teach them a lesson, especially when they were both battered and exhausted.
That would be the most perfect outcome.
"Yes, a surprise attack on the Da Guang Dynasty!"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and shook his head: "You can think of this, but others may not have anticipated it, will our actions be noticed?"
"I don't think so, right? We are marching in secret."
"More than a hundred people in a team, we shouldn't have left any traces, and there was no disturbance."
They felt that the movement was small, there were no traces of marching, and it shouldn't be noticed.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "The secret agents of Da Meng are extremely powerful, and so are those of Da Lie Dynasty and Da Guang Dynasty, who knows how many spies they have planted."
"Then, my lord, what should we do?"
"Surprise attack Da Lie Dynasty's Nanyun Island," Chu Zhiyuan slowly said, "Let them be suspicious and fearful,... Open the map."
Guo Chi jumped off the high platform, and quickly jumped back, already carrying a long scroll on his shoulder, a scroll twice as tall as him.
With the help of the other three, the scroll slowly opened.
It was a huge map, a map of the sea area of the Eastern Border and the Da Lie Dynasty and Da Guang Dynasty.
The map fluttered in the air, enough for everyone to see.
They all had cultivation, at least at the Xiantian level, focusing their eyes, they could see clearly.
The three words 'Nanyun Island' were especially clear.
It marked their current location, the location of Nanyun Island, and the route of the voyage.
This navigation chart made them a little confused, it actually went directly north, and then turned to the east.
Equivalent to going around a semicircle.
Chu Zhiyuan looked at the crowd and slowly said, "Nanyun Island actually also has a batch of Da Guang Dynasty armor."
The crowd was stunned.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "If all goes well, we can also use this batch of armor and go to the northern border of Da Guang."
The crowd's eyes lit up. Punching Da Lie, kicking Da Guang. It was really enjoyable!
In their bones, they despised the Da Lie Dynasty and the Da Guang Dynasty, thinking that they were small countries and vulnerable.
Now, they dared to take the initiative to violate our Da Jing, simply not knowing how to write the word 'death'.
/
This time, we will teach them how to be people!
Chu Zhiyuan slowly said, "All those in Nanyun Island of the Da Lie Dynasty are elites, they are still afraid of our Da Jing. According to current information, they have gathered 30,000 troops, and they are still increasing."
"Thirty thousand..." The crowd frowned. Thirty thousand was too much.
In their bones, they looked down on Da Lie and Da Guang, but when they really fought, they didn't think they could fight ten enemies alone, let alone thirty enemies.
Emotions were emotions, and the actual situation was the actual situation.
These guys were also elites, and veterans of perennial warfare, not so easy to deal with.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "If we can wipe out these 30,000 elites, there will be no need to attack Da Guang again. Da Guang will never let go of this opportunity, they are, after all, sworn enemies!"
Seeing Da Jing destroy these 30,000 elites, Da Guang will be terrified, and at the same time, they will not let go of this opportunity.
The situation will directly reverse.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "One thousand against thirty thousand, if there is no formation, it is indeed impossible to complete."
The crowd's spirits lifted. They remembered the Phoenix Seeking Phoenix Formation that they had been practicing hard, and it was becoming more and more proficient.
The power of this formation was amazing, and it could exert several times the power.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "If you practice for another month, and your formation is proficient, you will be even more confident, but time waits for no one. In a few more days, Da Lie and Da Guang will officially send troops, and we have to act before they do, so we can only go into battle hastily."
The crowd nodded, indicating that they understood.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "So, we need sufficiently brilliant tactics, and below are the tactics."
He waved his hand.
Another huge painting slowly opened.
It depicted the map of Nanyun Island, with the location of the military camps marked on it, with a total of four military camps, occupying the four directions on the island.
Each camp had about eight thousand people.
The map of each camp was marked clearly.
Where the main tent of the camp was, the distribution location of the sentry posts, the distribution of the military tents, how many people were in each location.
Chu Zhiyuan then began to analyze how to conquer the first military camp, the respective positions and attack directions of the ten teams.
What kind of instructions he would issue at that time, and how each team and squad would act after hearing the instructions.
Chu Zhiyuan spoke in detail, explaining every detail clearly, so that everyone understood their mission, what to do and when to do it.
After speaking, he allowed the soldiers under the stage to ask questions freely, with each team taking turns to ask questions.
He answered them one by one, explaining repeatedly. Striving to make everyone understand the action route, the action target, and the action steps.
