Chapter 611: Retreat to Advance
Xie Xunfeng's words sounded like madness to Yu Zhongtian's ears.
After all, we have the natural barrier of the Great Wall in the North to defend here.
Their casualties were so heavy, not to mention the fact that they took the initiative to attack without any natural defenses.
Isn't this just like hitting a rock with an egg?
"Xiao Xie, are you kidding? Isn't it a dead end to attack? Our people don't stand a chance of winning in a head-on confrontation with them..."
After hearing what Yu Zhongtian said, Xie Xunfeng couldn't help but smile faintly, and then said, "Of course not using the Yu Family Army... but the Flying Tigers..."
Yu Zhongtian had naturally heard of the Flying Tigers...
The members of the Flying Tigers were the elite among the elites that Xie Xunfeng had Xie Yong recruit...
But even so, Yu Zhongtian didn't think that the Flying Tigers could be a match for those aliens...
Xie Xunfeng saw Yu Zhongtian's doubts, and then said to Yu Zhongtian, "The Flying Tigers I brought with me are no longer the Flying Tigers you think they are..."
Yu Pengcheng on the side said to Yu Zhongtian, "Grandpa... Brother Xie is right... Every member of their Flying Tigers knows magic... Their magic can make one person fight against a hundred, which is very powerful..."
"Magic? Is it the same magic used by foreigners?" Yu Zhongtian asked Yu Pengcheng.
Yu Pengcheng nodded, and then said to Yu Zhongtian, "That's right... follow the magic of the foreigners..."
After hearing this, Yu Zhongtian immediately said to Xie Xunfeng with expectation, "Xiao Xie, is it possible that ordinary people can also practice such magic?"
Xie Xunfeng couldn't help but smile at them, and then said, "Indeed...but it requires conditions..."
After listening to this, Yu Zhongtian immediately became interested...
Then he said, "Conditions? What conditions..."
Xie Xunfeng said to Yu Zhongtian, "Old man, I heard from Yu Pengcheng that you have collected all the life jades, right?"
Yu Zhongtian heard Xie Xunfeng's change of tone, although he didn't know what Xie Xunfeng meant.
But he continued, "Yes... all the life jades have indeed been collected... What does that have to do with our ordinary soldiers being able to practice..."
Looking at Yu Zhongtian's excited and curious expression.
It seems that he has completely forgotten the pain of the broken arm...
Xie Xunfeng patiently explained to Yu Zhongtian, "That life jade is a treasure. After refining, it can become an inner elixir. And this inner elixir is the key to refining the elixir that ordinary people can use to practice magic..."
After hearing what Xie Xunfeng said, Yu Zhongtian felt like a drowning man who had grabbed a life-saving straw.
With an expectant look on his face, he said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xiao Xie, can you tell me this method..."
Xie Xunfeng looked at Yu Zhongtian and couldn't help but smile faintly, then said, "Of course...why not..."
Having said that, Xie Xunfeng handed over the task of refining the Life Jade to Yu Zhongtian.
Originally, he didn't want to do this himself...
After all, it was too complicated, and if he had too many Life Jades, he would be busy just refining them...
After Xie Xunfeng handed the secret recipe to Yu Zhongtian, Yu Zhongtian saw it and said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xiao Xie, don't worry, I will keep it a secret..."
After hearing what Yu Zhongtian said, he nodded and then said, "We need to be efficient... Once the inner elixir is refined, it should be sent back as soon as possible... Jing Fei will process it into the Jueling Spirit Pill..."
Seeing Xie Xunfeng's anxious look, Yu Zhongtian said to him, "Xiao Xie, why are you so anxious..."
Xie Xunfeng said to Yu Zhongtian, "I suspect that these foreigners are ready to make a move... If we don't scare them off... this northern Great Wall won't be able to hold out for long..."
"They are coming to attack in large numbers, and we don't have enough members of the Flying Tigers... So, we need some time, some time to scare them..."
Yu Zhongtian said to Xie Xunfeng, "We can't fool them for that long... You know, just to refine the Life Jade into an Inner Pill and then send it over, it will take more than a month to go back and forth... By then, the opportunity will be gone..."
After hearing Yu Zhongtian's words, Xie Xunfeng nodded lightly, and then said, "So, what I'm saying is, delaying the time for you to retreat..."
After hearing what Xie Xunfeng said, Yu Zhongtian couldn't help but look surprised and said with an incredible expression, "Retreat? Are you kidding me..."
Xie Xunfeng said to Yu Zhongtian, "Old man, do you think I'm joking?"
"This won't do... We can't retreat... You probably don't know how many lives we have paid to defend this northern Great Wall... If we give up now... Then, how can we follow the instructions of those dead generals?" Yu Zhongtian couldn't help but say loudly.
Looking at Yu Zhongtian's expression, Xie Xunfeng couldn't help but smile faintly, and then said, "Old man, the people on the north side of the Wei River have almost all retreated... If it weren't for those soldiers' desperate fight, how many more people would have died, this is unknown..."
"Moreover, we have to see the situation... Da Xia has been defeated repeatedly... It is said that most of their territory has been conquered by the people guarding Erxing Tiandu... This means that the aliens in the southern border can also attack us through Da Xia's existing territory..."
"You are an old general, so you naturally know what this means... The Wei River and Xingtian Ferry are connected to Daxia... We have no other choice but to defend the Wei River... Otherwise, the foreigners from the southern border of Daxia will come to our Dazhou territory and cut off our supply support from the rear."
"Then, we have truly become an isolated island, with nowhere to retreat..."
After hearing what Xie Xunfeng said, Yu Zhongtian frowned and said, "What do you mean Daxia has lost most of its territory..."
Xie Xunfeng nodded, and then said, "That's right... If we insist on defending, we are doomed to die... We can retreat now and set up fortifications and artillery in the natural barrier of the Wei River... and target the big birds in the sky of the Beast Tamers... And, most importantly, our real army awakens its spiritual power as a buffer... Retreating is for a better attack in the future... This is called retreating to advance..."
