In Europe at the moment, Ling Chen faced off with the defenders near the Austrian capital for several days.
But Long Yan's food and grass restricted their movements.
Ling Chen was thinking about countermeasures in the camp.
"General, our food and fodder can last for seven days. If we can't find the Austrian army's food warehouse, we will have to retreat."
Ling Chen's counselor said very worriedly.
Ling Chen looked expressionless and didn't say a word. He looked at the map of Austria and didn't know what he was thinking about.
However, his counselors were very worried and couldn't think of any solution.
Since receiving the emergency military report, General Ling Chen has fallen into silence. Now he is almost out of food and grass, and there is no way to do it.
If we can only withdraw our troops, we will not be able to complete Lord Liu Zheng's mission.
Prussia's predicament still cannot be solved, and King Yong's side will also face great difficulties in involving troops.
Thinking of this, the counselor felt dizzy.
At this time, Ling Chen suddenly said in a deep voice: "How many troops have been gathered in Vienna to confront us?"
The counselor was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "Less than 200,000. According to the report from the spies, it may only be 150,000."
"But it is impossible for us to attack Vienna. As soon as we attack Vienna, we will be surrounded by Austrian troops."
"Although our Dragon Flame Army is not afraid of any battle, we will not lose this battle, but we will be completely trapped to death."
Ling Chen raised his head and stared at his counselor, and said in a very calm tone: "Are you asking me to do something?"
Upon hearing these words, the counselor's sweat dropped from his forehead. At this moment, he felt a sharp sword hanging on his head.
If you are not careful, you will be killed.
At this time, the counselor remembered that Ling Chen was a decisive and decisive general. If he was here to persuade the troops to withdraw, wouldn't he be seeking death?
Ling Chen saw that his counselor was silent. Ling Chen's finger slid on the map of Austria, sliding from one city to another.
He tapped his finger on the map, and the counselor raised his eyes.
"General, we really want to attack!" the counselor said in a trembling voice.
Ling Chen smiled coldly and said lightly: "We came here to conquer Europe, what are we waiting for if we don't fight!"
The counselor was stunned and didn't know how to refute.
But attacking now is an act of risking death. Whether or not Vienna can be taken is aside, but your retreat route will definitely not be blocked by the Austrian front.
At that time, even if the battle is won, there will be no way to retreat or attack.
Even if I live in Vienna, I haven't conquered the whole of Austria.
There is a language and culture barrier here, and the Austrian military strength is definitely more than this. If Vienna is attacked, it will definitely stimulate more Austrian front troops to join the battle.
At that time, all talk of retreat was over.
This dragon flame army will be trapped and die here.
"General, the risk of us attacking Vienna is very high. After all, it is the capital of Austria!" the counselor risked his life to persuade him.
"What's more, we don't have much food. It's difficult to support a war."
Ling Chen knew everything the counselor said. He didn't know which Austrian general was in charge of Vienna, but his methods were really clever.
First, he invited you to enter the urn, and then he used a trick to make them unable to retreat. He attacked and set up camp near Vienna.
By leaving them unable to retreat and forcing them to face the enemy, Ling Chen originally thought that this would force the Austrian front army to gather more troops to fight against him.
In the end, I didn't expect that I could only gather 150,000 troops at most, which was far away from my own.
