Chapter 692 Confirming the Location
Chapter 692 Confirming the Location
Since the general is not satisfied with their proposals, why not try asking others.
"General," Lian Yi said, "you don't seem very satisfied with any of our proposals. However, I have thought of someone who might be able to offer you some new ideas."
The general raised his head slightly, his eyes fell on Lian Yi, revealing a hint of doubt.
"She's the girl who helped you last time," Lian Yi continued to explain. "She's smart and clever, and maybe she can think of some solutions we haven't considered."
After hearing this, General Li's frown relaxed slightly, as if he was thinking about Lian Yi's words.
"Well, you go down first."
Just as Lian Yi turned around and left the tent, Ni'er happened to walk over.
She saw Lian Yi wearing military uniform, with his ponytail standing high on the back of his head, looking heroic, like a proud and thorny rose, which made him particularly eye-catching in the military camp.
When Ni'er passed by Lian Yi, her steps paused slightly.
At this moment, her eyes inadvertently met Lian Yi's, and their sights briefly intertwined in the air.
At that moment, a strange feeling arose in Nier's heart.
Lian Yi's eyes seemed to reveal some hatred towards himself, but also seemed to hide other complex emotions.
Nier couldn't help but start to recall whether she had ever had any intersection with Lian Yi, or whether she had done anything that made her resentful.
However, no matter how hard she tried to recall, she could not remember any special contact with Lian Yi.
There is absolutely no intersection between them.
So, where does the hatred in Lian Yi's eyes come from?
Maybe I just saw it wrong.
Nier didn't think too deeply about it. She quickly came to her senses and continued walking towards the general's tent.
"General, let me change your dressing."
"Yeah." General Li responded, but his eyes did not fall on Ni'er. Instead, he stared thoughtfully into the distance, as if thinking about something important.
General Li's mind was completely occupied by Lian Yi's words just now. He kept thinking in his mind whether he should ask Ni'er.
However, he was somewhat hesitant.
Ni'er noticed that General Li always seemed worried recently, and she couldn't help but worry.
She knew that General Li's injuries had not yet fully recovered. If he continued to be so worried, it would definitely affect the healing of his wounds.
"General, have you been troubled by anything lately?" Ni'er asked with concern. "I see you're always distracted, which isn't good for your wound's recovery."
General Li frowned slightly. He knew that what Ni'er said made sense, but he really couldn't let go of the worries in his heart.
"Well, there are indeed some things that bother me." General Li finally decided to talk to Ni'er. "Recently, the logistics troops have been attacked. The transportation of food and fodder has been difficult, and the losses are heavy. What should we do?"
While Ni'er was carefully changing the dressing for General Li, she was thinking about this problem seriously.
"Is there a map?" Ni'er asked suddenly.
"I'll take you to see it later." General Li replied.
After applying the medicine, Ni'er was still worried and reminded him again: "Remember, don't move this arm!"
General Li raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and responded: "Don't worry, I know." His voice was low and firm, making people feel at ease.
After saying that, General Li stood up and took Ni'er to a huge map.
This map depicts in detail the terrain of the entire battlefield and the deployment of the armies of each side.
General Li pointed his finger accurately at a place on the map and said, "Look, this is the only way to transport food and fodder."
"Although our logistics forces have strengthened their defenses, the enemy is too cunning and we are still unable to withstand their attacks."
His brows furrowed slightly, as if he was a little upset about the defeat.
General Li pointed to another spot with a serious expression and said in a deep voice, "Since then, although the logistics troops have not been attacked here again, the enemy set up an ambush there, causing heavy losses to our side."
After saying that, General Li moved to another place and pointed at the map, saying, "This is where we were attacked for the third time."
Nier stared at the three locations, frowning slightly, wondering, "Were these three attacks carried out by the same enemy force?"
General Li also looked suspicious and replied, "It is indeed as you said. It is the same team. What is puzzling is how they knew the time and location of our operation so well."
"At first, we suspected there was a spy in the army who leaked intelligence to the enemy."
"But last time, due to heavy rain, the road was closed and the logistics team had to temporarily change their schedule. The spy had no time to pass on the message, but they were still ambushed in the end."
Nier stared intently at the map in front of her, as if she wanted to see through it.
Her brows furrowed slightly, her eyes moving between the various marked points on the map, carefully pondering the connections and possibilities.
The distances between these locations are not close, so it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to carry out precise ambush in such scattered locations.
If this was really done by the same team, then their organizational skills and intelligence level were quite amazing, which undoubtedly brought huge pressure to Nier.
"Not a traitor."
Then, the only explanation is that there must be a master in the opponent's team.
This person not only knows the terrain very well, but can also accurately predict the routes and timing of the logistics troops' movements. This is really terrifying.
Just as Nier was thinking hard, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind like lightning.
"Next time, they'll ambush here!"
Nier's finger pointed without hesitation at an inconspicuous corner of the map.
General Li looked skeptical. "This isn't the normal route for logistics troops. If we were to pass through here, we'd have to take a long detour, which isn't a wise move."
However, Nier nodded without hesitation and replied, "General, what you said is true, but the temperature is getting lower and the previous road is no longer suitable for marching."
"According to my observations, the recent rainfall has become more frequent, and the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains is extremely large. The early mornings and evenings are extremely cold. I'm afraid the roads will be frozen. It will be extremely difficult for horses to walk on such an icy surface."
"In comparison, the road I pointed out is a bit circuitous, but it leads through a valley. The temperature difference between day and night is smaller, and the road surface won't freeze. This way, the marching speed can be greatly increased."
"Not only that, the terrain here is dangerous and very easy to set up an ambush. If the enemy wants to ambush again, this place is undoubtedly the best choice."
After hearing what Ni'er said, General Li couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
