Chapter 670 - 664: Tactical Poverty Alleviation
It’s common for the side with more advanced tactics to provide tactical guidance to allies who are less experienced.
Before the strange arrival, in battles between small countries on a piece of land, the instructors on both sides could even be people from the Dragon Country.
People from the Dragon Country are known for their love of tactical assistance.
Lin Yuan looked at the messenger of the Void Race and asked, "After you take them back, what do you plan to do?"
Void Race messenger: "????"
The messenger of the Void Race was stunned, then thought to himself, what should I do?
Isn’t it obvious?
With so many strong clansmen under my command, do I still need to ask what to do?
Of course, I should take them and penetrate from the rear, causing chaos and destruction!
"I plan to cut in from behind, disrupt them, scatter them, and rescue my clansmen from danger...." The Void Race messenger started speaking slowly.
As he spoke, he began to fantasize, envisioning various scenes in his mind.
In his imagination, at the moment of crisis for the race, he leads the reinforcements to fight out and save the race from peril.
Thus, he became a member of the Void Race.
In the Void Race, his reputation and prestige were second only to the Grand Elder.
When those female clan members saw him, they emitted the scent of the sea.
What?
There’s no sea in the Void?
Anyway, that’s about the gist of it.
One must admit, the messenger of the Void Race is really an honest person!
Even his fantasies are so conservative.
Even in his fantasies, his prestige and reputation are less than the Grand Elder’s, which shows he greatly respects the Grand Elder.
"No, wrong! That’s completely wrong!"
"This is not how you fight a battle!" Lin Yuan shook his head, looking exasperated.
The messenger of the Void Race also held great respect for Lin Yuan.
In the heart of the Void Race messenger, the one he respected most was their Grand Elder, followed by Lin Yuan.
Seeing Lin Yuan’s expression, the messenger of the Void Race wore the expression of a child who had made a mistake.
Then, he tentatively asked, "Should I attack from the right flank?"
"Foolish!" Lin Yuan said with a cold face.
Void Race messenger: "?????"
"Still wrong?" The Void Race messenger was puzzled and continued to tentatively ask, "Then from the left flank?"
"Hopeless!" Lin Yuan scolded.
Enter from the rear, wrong?
Enter from the right flank, wrong?
Enter from the left flank, still wrong?
Could it be that I need to attack head-on?
Attacking head-on would be giving up the initiative, right?
Despite his confusion, the Void Race messenger gritted his teeth and asked, "Could it be I need to attack head-on?"
Lin Yuan glared at the messenger of the Void Race, correcting him sternly: "Is this a question of where to attack from?"
Void Race messenger: "?????"
The messenger of the Void Race looked puzzled, somewhat overwhelmed by Lin Yuan’s rebuke.
After a long time, he finally mustered the courage to tentatively ask, "I’m ignorant, would the respected Lord of Heaven and Earth please guide me."
The messenger of the Void Race may be somewhat slow, but he does have a humble attitude towards learning.
Not afraid.
What’s frightening are those who are both stubborn and incompetent.
After the Void Race messenger finished speaking, Lin Yuan looked into his earnest eyes and asked, "Do you know what it means to besiege Wei to rescue Zhao?"
Besiege Wei to rescue Zhao?
The messenger of the Void Race shook his head, looking puzzled.
Then, Lin Yuan slowly explained the story of besieging Wei to rescue Zhao.
After explaining what it means, Lin Yuan said to the messenger of the Void Race, "A frontal assault is not as effective as directly attacking their central stronghold."
"With a frontal support, at best, you can only save your comrades."
"But directly attacking their stronghold is different. If you penetrate their main base, they will surely return to defend it."
"This way, you not only save your clansmen, but you can also harm those guarding their base, or even destroy their stronghold."
Void Race messenger: "?????"
Lin Yuan’s explanation caused the eyes of the Void Race messenger to widen incredulously and brighten immediately.
He was surprised and exclaimed, "Is it possible to fight like that?"
"I always thought that warfare was about two armies clashing, with the losers fleeing and the winners chasing."
Listening to the Void Race messenger’s description of warfare, Lin Yuan thought, before the Spring and Autumn Warring States period, our warfare was also conducted in this manner.
Until later, someone named Sun Tzu came along.
Then, the way we fought wars changed.
After contemplating Lin Yuan’s guidance, the Void Race messenger knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times to Lin Yuan.
He didn’t know how else to express his gratitude to Lin Yuan.
Unable to repay him, he could only kowtow.
Lin Yuan hurriedly helped him up, thinking that this habit of kneeling at the drop of a hat must be changed.
"Thank you for your guidance, Lord of Heaven and Earth, I’ve understood!" the Void Race messenger said sincerely.
Lin Yuan looked at him with disdain and scolded, "You understand, understand what?"
"I haven’t finished speaking yet, what have you understood?"
Saying that, while the Void Race messenger was still eager to learn more, Lin Yuan continued, "Besides besieging Wei to rescue Zhao, you can also surround the point and attack the reinforcements."
"If you attack their main base, they will definitely return to defend it."
"Then quickly withdraw from their main base and set up an ambush on their path back. Surprise and attack them unexpectedly."
Void Race messenger: "?????"
"Marvelous!"
"Absolutely marvelous!" The Void Race messenger couldn’t help but praise.
Afterward, he made a gesture to kneel again: "Respected Lord of Heaven and Earth, I have nothing to thank you with, may I kowtow to you?"
Lin Yuan hurriedly helped him up and stuffed a copy of Sun Tzu’s Art of War into his arms, saying, "No need to kowtow."
"I’ll give this military book to you, study it carefully, and use it to deal with Wa Huang, the Demon Lord, and the Buddha."
The messenger of the Void Race received the military book from Lin Yuan and treasured it carefully.
The messenger of the Void Race thought, in the future, this military book is my life!
No, this book is more important than my life, it’s a treasure that could change the fate of our Void Race.
The Lord of Heaven and Earth truly is generous!
Who says there are no treasures between heaven and earth, this is a great treasure.
The Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in the Void may seem like treasures to Lin Yuan and others, but for the Void Race, which could not use them, they are mere dirt.
Yet Lin Yuan’s Sun Tzu’s Art of War was seen as a true treasure by him.
At this moment, Lin Yuan seemed to think of something else and reminded him, "Aside from this Sun Tzu’s Art of War, I’ll give you a sixteen-character mantra for you to contemplate."
"When the enemy advances, I retreat; when the enemy halts, I harass...."
