"Well, yes." After hearing Li Yi's explanation, Betina nodded repeatedly and said yes. But despite what Li Yi said, Betina couldn't understand what Li Yi said had something to do with how many troops he sent out last night.
Seeing that Bettina was still confused, Li Yi said lightly: "After the battle last night, although we cannot know how much troops the Pas Legion's coalition has lost, one thing is certain that after experiencing last night's battle, the current strength of the Pas Legion will inevitably be unable to continue to launch an effective attack on our Xicheng City. Of course, unless they are hot-headed because of the defeat, they will let the soldiers under their command who have lost their fighting spirit come to the walls of our Xicheng City to die in vain."
"Well, what you said makes sense. Although I did not observe in detail how much troops the Pas Legion lost after the battle last night. But according to my estimate, at least half of their casualties would be killed or killed in that battle. Because we, as the party who attacked, lost more than 30,000 troops." Betina sighed when talking about the bloody night last night. Especially after returning from the victory and learning about the number of soldiers' deaths, Betina couldn't help but sigh in her heart that war is really a huge meat grinder. In just one night, on the plain outside the city of Stream, at least more than 100,000 lives had to leave this world forever.
However, Li Yi was very calm about this. After he had long been accustomed to this kind of life and death, Li Yi had already had a clear understanding of the cruelty of war.
So despite the entangled expression on Betina's face now, Li Yi continued to speak: "You say, what will they do since the Pas Legion's coalition has lost the power to seize the city of St.
Seeing that Li Yi not only did not continue to explain, but asked about herself. After thinking for a while, Betina said to Li Yi with certainty: "Since they have lost the power to fight again, I think they must have to stop the battle and withdraw their troops."
"Well, that's right. Instead of mediating with us with the remnants and defeated generals outside, it's better to stop the battle and withdraw the troops immediately. I think a slightly rational commander will make such a decision under such circumstances. But if they make such a decision, they will be destined to face greater disaster." Speaking of this, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Li Yi's mouth.
Seeing that Li Yi's face rarely showed such an expression, Betina said to Li Yi in confusion after a little surprised: "How can they face greater disasters when they withdraw their troops? If they withdraw their troops, then the situation they are about to face will be worse than continuing to attack our city."
Betina obviously couldn't understand what Li Yi said. Although she knew very little about war, she could also figure it out that if the battle was not effective and she was unable to compete with the opponent, then Mingjin would withdraw his troops and wait until he went back to recuperate and could naturally come back to continue fighting.
But in Li Yi's world, it seems that two armies are fighting. If one side is defeated, the defeated side will be in a state of doom. Betina can't figure out this statement.
Looking at the puzzled expression on Betina's face, Li Yi also guessed that Betina must be a little confused about what she said. So after shook her head helplessly, Li Yi continued to slowly say to Betina: "Betina, you have to remember that war is war, it is not a fierce battle between us warriors. Since the two sides are fighting, it must be because both sides have their own goals. It is either for money and rights, or for energies. But no matter what the purpose is, they must decide the winner in the end. In order to win, both sides will naturally meet each other and fight for life and death. Since this is the case, then after the war begins, they will inevitably form an irresolvable hatred. Therefore, the Pas Legion outside the city is the enemy of your Yanlong Legion, and the kind of enemy that they hate the most. So when facing the enemy, don't you think you should kill them all."
After listening to Li Yi's story, Betina couldn't help but have a cold war. It was not entirely because of what Li Yi said, but part of the reason, or because when Li Yi was telling these, he didn't know whether it was conscious or unconscious, and he was constantly emitting cold murderous intent. This feeling was something that Betina had never felt from Li Yi before.
For Li Yi, Betina always feels that Li Yi is a mysterious man. Judging from many of his performances, Li Yi seems to be a man without desires. But sometimes, the obsession shown from Li Yi makes people shudder.
It was like when Li Yi just talked about the identities of both the enemy and us, and the result after the war started. Although it was just a common truth, after Li Yi spoke it, Betina felt scared from the bottom of her heart.
Could this be the true face of this man? Betina can no longer answer any questions from Li Yi, and can only keep asking and answering themselves in her heart.
In fact, based on these alone, it cannot be said that Li Yi is a cold-blooded person. Li Yi's world is very simple, it is nothing more than doing things based on his own preferences and intuition, and killing and decisively. A person or something is good, and bad is bad. If you like it, you will naturally take care of it in every way. And if you don't like it, even if the other party does not have much deep hatred with you, as long as the other party stands on his opposite side, then Li Yi doesn't mind taking action and let him disappear in this world.
Although such a world is a bit violent and unreasonable, it is also a kind of straightforwardness. Such people are easy to offend people, but they are also easy to make friends with people. Although the few people around Li Yi don’t say it, in fact, they all agree with Li Yi from the bottom of their hearts.
Although Li Yi met Betina before coming to Sainan, he didn't spend a long time together. And Li Yi is not the kind of person who likes to show off himself, so Betina has never quite understood Li Yi.
So when Li Yi showed his decisive side in front of Betina today, Betina was somewhat uncomfortable.
Seeing the expression on Betina's face, Li Yi was stunned at first. However, recalling the words he had just said and the killing magic technique that was unconsciously activated when he was talking, Li Yi guessed that it must be the strong murderous aura on his body, which made Betina feel a little uncomfortable.
He smiled at Betina apologetically, and Li Yi asked awkwardly: "Betina, what's wrong? Could it be that my words just made you feel uncomfortable?"
Hearing Li Yi's questioning, Betina woke up from the daze just now. She fiddled with her hair awkwardly. Betina smiled and said, "I don't feel uncomfortable, but the momentum you emitted from her body was a bit scary when you were talking just now. But I have to say, what you said just now makes sense. If we don't continue to pursue each other when the other party is defeated, then when they come back to rest in the future, they will definitely come back to harass us. If we don't eradicate the roots now, it will leave a big trouble for ourselves."
Seeing Betina say this, Li Yi knew she was enlightened. So after Li Yi smiled proudly, he continued to say to Betina: "It's right that you can think about it like this. In fact, I didn't expect that we could win such a big victory last night. My original plan was to weaken their strength to a certain extent and also allow our soldiers to vent their anger. In this way, when we continue to stick to the city, we will naturally be much more relaxed. But I didn't expect the result to be so gratifying. Such a result really gave us a happy trouble." Speaking of this, Li Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Seeing Li Yi's appearance, Betina was stunned again. In the previous second, Li Yi was still emitting a horrifying murderous aura at all times, but in a blink of an eye, when Li Yi was speaking, he seemed to be a weak scholar. Such a large contrast made Betina feel a little unable to see through Li Yi.
But this time Betina was not stunned, but asked Li Yi with a smile: "What is the trouble of happiness? Isn't it better for us to win a big victory?"
"Victory is a good thing, but I didn't expect that victory would come so fiercely. We no longer simply weaken their strength, but have already defeated the enemy to a slump. You also said that if their leader still has a trace of rationality in the current Pas Legion, then he would definitely choose to withdraw his troops. This is an opportunity. The Pas Legion is actually in a difficult situation now. Facing Xicheng, they are no longer able to rob. But if they want to withdraw their troops, it is not so easy to leave." Li Yi said lightly, but accidentally revealed a trace of murderous intent on his body.
"What do you mean is that when they withdraw, we should choose to pursue the victory?" Betina was no matter how stupid it was. After Li Yi said so much, Betina also understood what Li Yi meant inside and outside.
Li Yi had said that he wanted to eliminate the roots before, and then he kept mentioning the withdrawal of the Pas Legion. It seems that Li Yi really planned to let the Pas Legion, which dared to challenge the authoritative of the Flame Dragon Legion, stay in Xicheng.
"This is my idea. After two days of siege, the Pas Legion was attacked by our night attack. It was so severely damaged. If their troops could maintain their strong combat power, then I can only say that the personality charm of their leader is really amazing. So, facing such a group of soldiers who have completely lost their fighting spirit, as long as we continue to pursue them when they retreat, I dare not say that they can destroy their entire army, but at least they can also make them bleed again." Li Yi said with a smile. At this time, Li Yi seemed to be talking about a calm and gentle thing.
"But after last night's battle, our Yanlong Legion was also seriously injured. Let's not talk about the soldiers who had already died, even those who could still come back alive after a night of bloody battles, they were already exhausted. It seems to be a bit difficult to get them to recover their peak combat effectiveness in a short period of time." Although Betina was also very interested in beating the fallen dog, thinking about the current situation of the Yanlong Legion soldiers, Betina could only shake her head regretfully.
The problem that Li Yi had been bothering before was exactly what Betina was worried about now. Although the Flame Dragon Legion won a big victory last night, it was a bloody battle overnight. At this time, all the soldiers of the Flame Dragon Legion needed to rest. It might be okay if they insisted on defending the city, but if they were asked to leave the city and march out of the city and pursue the enemy, it would be really a bit difficult.
The ace troops in Li Yi's hand, the cavalry regiment brought from Lingcheng, were not many casualties after the battle last night, but they were extremely tired. When he returned to the city before, Li Yi found that some of the war horses in the army were already showing signs of fatigue, not to mention the cavalry wearing heavy armor and slashing the enemy overnight.
After thinking about it, Li Yi found that it was difficult to find a unit that could exert amazing combat power in the stream city at this time.
The result is that although the Pas Legion is at the end of its strength, if they choose to withdraw their troops immediately, the Flame Dragon Legion can only watch them retreat. Even if they want to force out of the city to pursue, it will probably not cause much damage to the enemy. At most it can play a role in harassment. It may even cause heavy losses to the troops that force out of the city to pursue due to their greed for merit.
After figuring out these things, Li Yi could only sigh helplessly like Betina. It seemed that it was really a bit too sleepy to try to kill all the people.
Li Yi was able to have this idea entirely because of an experience. When the Sai Empire brazenly attacked the Chinese fortress, the Sai Empire finally chose to retreat because it could not capture it for a long time. However, at that time, the Chinese fortress had accumulated millions of troops from the Tianlan Empire. Although the troops of the Tianlan Empire suffered a considerable loss when they were defending the fortress before. However, after all, there were millions of soldiers in the Chinese fortress. Seeing the enemy retreat, Lieutenant General Luo Ning immediately thought of taking advantage of the victory to pursue. He had this idea, and his troops did have this strength. Only when this condition was established at the same time could the idea of hitting the dog in the water be truly implemented.
Thinking of this, Li Yi couldn't help but sigh again. It seems that his strength is too thin after all. Many times, many ideas cannot be realized, not only because of personal reasons. It is possible that many ideas are stranded because of the non-existent conditions.
As a result, Li Yi suddenly realized that the strength of the Tianlan Empire was far beyond his reach. It seems that there is really a long way to go to defeat the giant Tianlan Empire.
But even though he knew that the road ahead was bumpy, Li Yi was not discouraged. After a little emotion, Li Yi showed that iconic confident smile on his face. He patted Betina's shoulders who were sighing aside. Li Yi smiled and said, "Okay, since we no longer have the power to fight again, then let them leave. After all, people have to know how to do what they can. If they are too forced, they will sooner or later fall."
After hearing Li Yi's words, Betina was relieved. Many things could not be forced. Since the situation of the Flame Dragon Legion did not allow them to attack again, she could only accept the result calmly.
But just when Li Yi and Betina decided not to talk about attacking, but immediately ordered the troops to rest and wait for the next situation. Suddenly, an officer hurried to Betina and said respectfully to Betina: "General, no, the Pas Legion outside the city has quickly assembled the troops. At this moment, the troops are at the city and may attack at any time."
