Chapter 420: Inviting the enemy into a trap, then trapping them behind closed doors.
When Lin Yuan offered his suggestion, not only Li Yan, but also the women behind him were stunned and found it unbelievable.
“Mr. Lin, I know you are very capable, but aren’t you going a bit too far?”
"This is no small-scale war! The Japanese side has over a thousand ships, hundreds of fighter jets, and a total force of nearly 100,000, including two aircraft carriers! Add to that the warlords of Alaska, and the enemy's total force is close to 130,000!"
"If we fight them at sea, even if we don't stop them, the total number of troops they can land won't be too many. Once they land, if they spread out and advance inland, do you know what that means? The land of the Dragon Kingdom is vast, and at this critical juncture, zombie hordes are breaking out everywhere. Other military regions and survivor bases are too busy to take care of themselves. Aren't you just causing trouble?"
Li Yan said excitedly, "Your plan will absolutely not work. Although you are a hero in this chaotic world, you still need to listen to what Liu Yun has to say about war."
Everyone then looked at Liu Yun.
However, to Li Yan's near-spitting blood, Liu Yun pondered for a moment and then said, "I think the master has not yet finished explaining the plan. I would like to hear it."
"Master?" Li Yan was stunned, his lips twitching.
Liu Yun, however, remained calm.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Captain Li, don't panic. Let me explain slowly. First of all, your intelligence is not as complete as mine. For example, the number of enemy aircraft carriers is not two, but three! In addition to the Chida and Izumo from Japan, there is also an aircraft carrier called Ice Snow deployed around Alai. Although it is a retired aircraft carrier, it was just decommissioned before the end of the world."
"you……"
Li Yan asked in bewilderment, "So you're going to let them ashore before you fight them?"
"First of all, this is not a time of peace. There are no ports or economic centers along the coastline. It's just a wasteland. We don't suffer any losses, but we can capture more of their ships, weapons, and even talismans. This is how we can maximize our profits."
"Secondly, I need the enemy's troops to land so that they have no room to retreat."
"Captain Li, what we need to do is not just win, but also win more chips while winning."
Lin Yuan said calmly.
“I understand the logic, but the southern military camp only has 10,000 men. How can you fight against 130,000 men and simultaneous bombing from the sea, land, and air?”
Li Yan was already red-faced and his neck was thick with embarrassment.
“First of all, we are on the defensive. Secondly, they will also face our simultaneous bombing from the sea, land, and air, won’t they?” Lin Yuan said. “Captain Li, don’t forget, their primary target is Linhai City. Even if Linhai City is destroyed, I will suffer heavy losses. The follow-up troops in Haiwan City and Qiaodu can still wipe them out. No matter how you look at it, the government is guaranteed to make a profit, isn’t it?”
Li Yan looked at Lin Yuan with some surprise, "So you're willing to risk being besieged by more than 100,000 people just to seize more resources?"
"I don't think this is a risk." Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Captain Li, times have changed. Besides firearms and the military, the strength of evolved humans should not be underestimated. When I wiped out Han Dong, didn't you also find it unbelievable?"
Li Yan stopped talking and stared intently at Lin Yuan. He had thought that this young man was just young and impetuous, but now he realized that he could not see through him at all.
"are you serious?"
Li Yan was eventually moved.
Lin Yuan is right. If successful, the amount of supplies captured will be several times higher than originally planned.
"Of course I'm serious."
Lin Yuan said, "If I don't even have this much strength and courage, how can I compete with Green Tree?"
This statement completely convinced Li Yan.
He stood up, remained silent for a long time, and then said, "Haiwan City will continue to remain silent. Of course, the necessary intelligence will be passed on to you. Lin Yuan, I hope you're not just talking big to me, and I also hope you don't empty out the southern military camps. Many of the Marines there are still my former subordinates."
"clear."
Lin Yuan stood up and saluted Li Yan as well.
Li Yan said no more, walked straight to the door, and muttered to himself with his back to the crowd, "I've fought a whole life, and I've never seen a fighting style like this before!"
He shook his head and then left.
"Shall I take you there?"
Lin Yuan walked to the door, only to find that Li Yan had disappeared.
"Excellent! He even has the ability to teleport. Captain Li is truly a hidden talent." Lin Yuan exclaimed in admiration. It was rare to find an old man over fifty years old with both red eyes and multiple abilities.
"This Li Yan seems quite interesting," Lin Yuan said. "Liu Yun, what level is he exactly?"
Liu Yun thought for a moment and said, "The level that frequently appeared on military channels before the apocalypse."
Lin Yuan was taken aback, thinking to himself, "No wonder he looks so familiar."
However, the women were unaware of Lin Yuan's specific plan and were still somewhat confused, including Liu Yun, who said, "Master, your plan... is indeed a bit risky."
"adventure?"
Lin Yuan laughed and said, "We may seem to only have 10,000 troops, but have you calculated how many animals we are raising? Once the enemy lands, I can wipe out more than half of their forces in just Linhai City alone, and more than half of that will be infected and turned into zombies. Do you know what that means?"
Liu Yun suddenly realized: "Master, you made them log in and fight again, was it just to... raise more zombies?"
"of course."
Lin Yuan said, "We happen to have an intelligent zombie under our command right now. If it doesn't control the zombies to do complicated work, but simply controls the zombie horde, it can easily handle hundreds of thousands of zombies."
Back in Dongyan City, a single intelligent zombie could control a horde of millions. How much more powerful and intelligent is this red-eyed one now!
The entire coastal city is now overrun by zombies and farmed creatures. Any enemy troops that land will have to pay a price to get through.
The coastal city area alone can drastically reduce the number of enemy troops while dramatically increasing the number of our troops.
"In addition, the protective wall project will be completed soon, and the southern military camp will arrive soon."
"At that time, the reinforcements from Gulf City will encircle the enemy from the sea and drive away and bomb the enemy aircraft from the air."
"After going through all this, what kind of accomplishments do you think a mere warlord from Alaska and a motley crew from Japan could possibly achieve?"
Lin Yuan looked relaxed and didn't seem to care.
Moreover, these are all just macro-level military forces and the clear rhythm between the confrontation of firearms.
When it comes to the strength among evolved beings, Lin Yuan doesn't even mention himself. Just one glance at Liu Yun, who had just advanced to the Red Eye realm, gave him even more confidence.
"So, we don't need to do anything right now?" Xu Muqing asked.
“That’s not it either,” Lin Yuan said. “Xiao Qian, continue investigating the headquarters of the combined forces of the Sakura Kingdom and Alaska. Liu Yun, have the southern military camp speed up their march and arrive at the base as soon as possible. Qin Huan, expedite the construction of the protective wall. Sister Qingxue, with the great battle imminent, we need to take care of the arrangements for the other ordinary survivors and their psychological well-being first, so that there won’t be any internal chaos later.”
Lin Yuan looked around and found that only Bai Zhenzhen and Song Yufei had nothing to do.
“Zhenzhen, Yufei.”
Lin Yuan said, "Let's go to the city under lockdown."
"What are you going to do in the city under lockdown?" Jiang Qian asked.
"We still don't have enough red-eyed beings. Let's bring over another red-eyed evolver so that our friends from afar can broaden their horizons," Lin Yuan laughed.
The women understood and, following Lin Yuan's instructions, got busy with their own tasks.
