Chapter 83: Sun Tzu’s Art of War, The Strategy of the Murloc King

Ye Feng looked around, and the atmosphere was high.

Everyone was waiting for Ye Feng’s order.

The Murlocs looked at Ye Feng with bloodshot eyes. This was their new king.

The Wuhu King was the Son of the Prophecy, the destined person. To their tribe, Ye Feng’s current status was like a god!

With such a lofty status, logically speaking, he could enjoy all the resources, and everything in the Murloc tribe was at his disposal.

However, no one could see any ambition in his eyes.

They thought that the Wuhu King just disdained to covet their resources. For this kind of Murloc King to descend at such a critical moment, it was no different from sending charcoal in the snow to them!

However, Ye Feng hesitated.

‘Now that their momentum is so high, this big battle is inevitable.’

‘But I don’t know the overall strength of the [Swamp Clan]!’

‘Just showing me a map, how will I know the strength of the other party?’

If they really fought, it would not be a joke.

The overall strength of these Murlocs was very strong.

All of them were strong and could easily kill an elephant with just a bit of strength.

Such terrifying strength, and it wasn’t just one person!

It was a group! A large group!!

Moreover, this area was listed as the freshmen assessment area.

If a passing contestant were to die here, wouldn’t it be very unfair?

Moreover, everyone had a live broadcast.

The audience immediately knew who the main culprit was.

That was him. He was now the king of the Murlocs, and he was leading a tribe of Murlocs.

Fighting was something that could easily break an arm or a leg, and it could easily lead to death.

If a fight really broke out, it probably wouldn’t be over in a short period of time.

This was a battle that lasted for a long time.

After understanding it, Ye Feng also clearly understood that these two tribes were of the same origin, and the hatred accumulated within them was something that had happened a long, long time ago.

Once a large-scale battle really broke out, if they did not fight to the death, there was no way they could stop it.

At that time, it was probably not something that he could control alone.

He was currently participating in the freshmen assessment!

He was not here to fight!!

Ye Feng was numb. He thought that he had picked up a bunch of underlings for no reason.

He did not expect to be involved in a political whirlpool!

What the f*ck!!

‘If I don’t get out of here soon, it will probably be difficult for me in the future. Moreover, there is a time limit for the freshmen assessment. If I don’t return to school after the limit is exceeded, the results should not be effective!’ Ye Feng thought to himself.

“According to your intelligence, it is said that they will launch an attack tomorrow, right?”

Ye Feng looked at the head knight and confirmed once again.

The Head Knight nodded. It tacitly agreed. “They will attack our surrounding strongholds first. However, a few days ago, we have already carried out the transportation of materials to the surrounding strongholds. We can ensure that we can support them until our main force arrives to support them.”

“Unfortunately, we cannot send a large number of warriors to support them because the strength of the [Swamp Clan] is too powerful. They have a large number of people and can destroy our strongholds in an instant.”

“Then their ultimate strategic goal is to attack our Murloc Palace, which is also the headquarters of our [Waterfall Clan]…”

Saying that, the Head Knight let out a long sigh.

“So, we still need to set up the Murloc Palace. This also means that our warriors cannot be concentrated in one place and must be scattered.”

Seeing Ye Feng frown, the Head Knight hurriedly said, “Of course, there is no need for the Wuhu King to worry about strategic issues. Our Royal Knights will set up the palace on our own!”

“From now on, we will prioritize the surrounding strongholds…”

Hearing this, Ye Feng directly interrupted the Head Knight.

“No, no, no, there is a problem with your strategy. I will give you an opinion. Gather all the warriors and defend the Murloc Palace.”

The Head Knight and the others were a little dumbfounded when they heard this.

“Wuhu King, are you going to give up the surrounding strongholds?” someone asked.

Ye Feng shook his head. “It’s not giving up, but retracting the troops!”

“According to Sun Tzu’s Art of War, the core of war is to win more than lose. Gathering the superior warriors is an eternal tactic.”

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this.

“What is Sun Tzu’s Art of War?”

“Oh, you don’t understand. Anyway, it’s just a suggestion. It’s up to you whether you want to do it or not,” Ye Feng said indifferently. Anyway, he did not want to get involved in this dispute.

“Wuhu King, can you explain why you want to do this?” one of the elders asked in confusion.

“It’s very simple. You also said that the [Swamp Clan] is coming aggressively, showing the momentum of destroying everything.”

“And we obviously don’t have enough warriors. I took a look and saw that there are quite a few strongholds around us. There are more than a dozen of them.”

“If we spread out our warriors, we won’t be able to defend against the [Swamp Clan]’s attack. They have the advantage in the outer area. But if we don’t have any strongholds, they will definitely spread out their forces and attack our Murloc Palace.”

“The Murloc Palace is easy to defend but hard to attack. Moreover, the waterfall is huge. They won’t be able to find the entrance in a short amount of time. Thus, their main force will definitely not be able to enter. They will definitely spread out their forces and surround us.”

Ye Feng said and smiled,”At that time, it will be our advantage. With our main force, isn’t it easy to encircle and annihilate their scattered small forces?”

When everyone heard this, they were instantly shocked.

They had not considered this method at all.

Thinking about how the Murloc Palace was their headquarters, how could they be allowed to enter and fight?

But for now, this method seemed to be the most effective.

“The Wuhu King actually has such strategic talent! As expected of the Son of the Prophecy!!”

“If not for the Wuhu King’s strategy, after tomorrow, there might not be [Waterfall Clan] anymore!”

The Head Knight was also secretly shocked and deeply believed in Ye Feng.

As the Royal Knight Commander who was the commander of the warriors, in terms of power distribution and battle, it was the one who understood the most.

It also knew the situation of the surrounding strongholds.

Because the [Swamp Clan] had besieged from the outside, the numerous strongholds obviously could not last for too long.

The Head Knight knew this, so it thought of taking some remedial measures, such as transporting supplies to the various strongholds overnight.

Then, it would replenish some warriors.

Although this was a remedial measure, it was obviously just delaying the [Swamp Clan]’s offensive.

The final result was that the stronghold would be defeated, and a large number of warriors would be killed.

He didn’t consider defending the Murloc Palace at all.

He only thought of intercepting the enemy on the periphery, but he didn’t consider that the enemy’s advantage was on the periphery. Even if they defended the stronghold, it would only delay time.

At that time, not only would the warriors lose their lives, but they would also attack the Murloc Palace.

If Ye Feng did not stop them, it would really carry out this plan.

Fortunately, Ye Feng acted in time!

The Head Knight was covered in cold sweat. If they really carried out its plan, perhaps not long after, their [Waterfall Clan[ would have become the enemy’s slaves.

“The Wuhu King is mighty, and his strategic knowledge is so outstanding! Your subordinate will immediately make the arrangements!” the Head Knight said and immediately began to follow Ye Feng’s instructions, ordering all the surrounding strongholds to be abandoned and gathered in the Murloc Palace.

Seeing the surrounding people retreat, Ye Feng finally let out a sigh of relief.

Although he thought so just now, he still used the system. According to the deduction, this was the best method.

The result showed that the [Swamp Clan] could not withstand the war of attrition and eventually collapsed.

The [Waterfall Clan] could also take this opportunity to harvest the [Swamp Clan] and completely conquer the Murloc tribe.

This was the best he could do.

He had to prepare to run. The war would start tomorrow, and he had to leave today!!
