The Fourth Elder had always been a steady person, and he also knew how to be courteous.
He should actually be very clear about how anxious this situation is at the moment, thus, according to his character, it is unlikely that he would come to say these words and light these powder kegs at such a time.
Since this guy had opened his mouth, then it was obvious that he should have a way to deal with it.
As expected and not to Xu Long’s surprise, after the Fourth Elder was named, he rose slightly and said, “My subordinate believes that simply sitting around dryly doesn’t actually have much significance.”
“What does this say.”
“Back to the Palace Master, Special Envoy, today’s dawn, according to the norm, we should be launching an attack on the enemy, but right now, we are stagnant.”
“Based on that, I’m wondering if Han Sanqian’s side has begun to suspect that his harassment of us has worked?”
Xu Long sniffed and his face stared, “What do you mean ……”
“I doubt Han Sanqian will take advantage of the fire against us.”The Fourth Elder said while frowning carefully.
Hearing this, the head envoy, who was already a little fired up, instantly became even more irritated as he slammed the table and shouted angrily, “Am I still afraid of him, Han Sanqian?I have such a troop strength, even if I have some losses, it’s definitely not something that a rat like him can come and covet, if he dares to come, I’ll let him have no return.”
Xu Long did not have that strong of a reflection, his first reaction was still to seriously think about the reasoning in the Fourth Elder’s words, however, he really did not think of any valid evidence that could back up those words.
“Fourth Elder, I’m afraid this is a bit too much for you to worry about.”
“It’s true that Han Sanqian and that group of sailors can barely fight against us right now, but one of the most important reasons for his dominance is that geographical factor.”
“It’s utilised by the graveyard’s ease of defence and difficulty in attacking, plus the fact that there are boulders on the top of the mountain that the Third Elder had initially unintentionally created for them.”
“Because of these two reasons, they could fight us until now.However, that doesn’t mean they can still fight us without those two points.”
“I agree with what you said, Han Sanqian’s side should know by now that something must have gone wrong if we didn’t launch our attack as planned, but I don’t think he will launch an attack on us as you said.”
The First Elder also stood up at this time and said, “Yes, Fourth Elder, the other side’s terrain is their advantage, it’s unlikely that they would give up their advantage to attack us.”
“Of course, if Han Sanqian is foolish enough to really make this kind of mistake, then for us, in fact, aren’t these exactly the things that are to our liking?”
“If he brings people to call, that would be the same as them giving up their advantage in front of us, and even with the current attrition of our army, it would definitely not be difficult to deal with them, which is rather what we want.”
Hearing these words, the fourth elder for a moment also completely do not know how to reply, from common sense, everyone said are very reasonable, this is also really unlikely, or on the contrary, if it is possible, then it would be the biggest benefit to them, they can completely turn the disadvantage into an advantage.
But the problem is ……
“But the problem is, Han Sanqian, this person is cunning and deceitful, this is something that I believe you have all appreciated, I am worried that this kid will have some other devious ideas when the time comes.”
Xu Long frowned slightly and said, “Then, Fourth Elder, what is your opinion?”
“My opinion is that since we are here passively speculating, we might as well turn it into an initiative.We’ll organise a portion of our forces now to continue to attack Han Sanqian’s position.”
“For one, this can strike Han Sanqian, making Han Sanqian think that we’re attacking normally, so what he did last night didn’t really work out well.”
“Secondly, this move can also make our army’s heart a little more stable, at least most of our subordinates see that our army is still attacking normally, so everyone won’t be too discouraged by the casualties this time.”
“As for the third to come, that is, the problem we just feared will no longer exist.”
“Because we took the initiative, there’s no need to passively guess what Han Sanchuan will do to us.”
Although the head envoy had just gotten angry because of these remarks from the fourth elder, theoretically, smart people shouldn’t go back on his remarks at this time, lest they draw fire to themselves.
However, ……
