Chapter 19: Excellent Strategy
The military advisor nodded and replied, "Though we have surrounded Xiqiang City, we are in no better situation than Feng Xiyan. We are running out of food and water, and the promised supplies from the Yu Empire have been delayed again and again."
He shook his head and added, "If this continues, even if we manage to defeat the Feng Army, we won't have the strength to hold on to Xiqiang City."
After listening to the military advisor's analysis, Kai Mu's gaze darkened. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "You are saying the Yu Empire plans to kill the hound after the hunt?"
The military advisor nodded solemnly. "Not just the Yu Empire. Other tribes and kingdoms are eyeing Xiqiang City as well. One wrong move, one poorly timed decision, and we could end up just like Feng Xiyan."
"So, what is your plan?" Kai Mu asked with a hint of curiosity in his voice.
The military advisor stood up from his seat and walked over to the sand table in the center of the tent. Seeing this, Kai Mu and the generals followed him.
Standing by the sand map, the advisor placed a few miniature flags on it and said, "We have blocked these passages, and Feng Xiyan has stationed his troops in these locations."
He then placed a few more flags on the sand map and added, "Therefore, to conquer the city, we need to attack from here."
"A few days ago, our spies discovered a secret passage into Xiqiang City. While the Supreme General leads the main army to attack from the north gate, General Lai Ka will lead a team of 500 elite soldiers through the secret passage to infiltrate Xiqiang City."
