Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 17: Bright Sword (3)
Bo Jinchen listened silently to Wufeng's analysis. Although he still hasn't heard how much the other party's analysis has to do with the Southern Peninsula Alliance, he believes that the other party will not aim at nothing.
"But now we have a chance. The drought in the Eastern Continent has lasted for a year, and the impact of the disaster on all parties has gradually emerged. The Maqihans are no exception, but the Maqihans control the Vietnam. Beijing, Jemelo, Ankun, and Baling are all major grain producing areas. With their local grain production and original grain reserves, they should be able to survive this year, but what about next year? There is evidence It shows that next year the Eastern Continent will usher in a bigger disaster year, and the food crisis will further intensify. By that time, even if the Maqihans have food supplies from Yuejing, Baling and other places, they will not be able to meet the poison of the entire country. , What should the Machihan people do? Import from the outside? They can only import by land and sea through the Nanyang Alliance. If we can hit the coast of the Great Nanyang in one go, then we can not only reach the land passage to the Eastern Continent, but we can even The sea passage between the Eastern Continent and the Central Continent can be controlled through the navy, so the Maqihan people will be in trouble. If we can make good use of this situation, we will be able to greatly weaken the strength of the Maqihan people.” Wu Wu Feng finally got to the point.
"My lord, I can't agree with your basis and opinions!" Bo Jinchen couldn't hold back any longer, his breathing became short of breath, and he stood up all of a sudden: "Your Highness, I want to admit that you suffered a drought in the Eastern Continent The gamble is right, but the changes in the celestial phenomena cannot be controlled by humans. How can you conclude that next year will be a disaster year? This is not just a risk, but a pure gamble. I don’t think it’s an achievement. The success of major events depends on such bets! The Maqihan people and the Nanyang Alliance are closely related. You also said that the Maqihan people can import food through the Nanyang Alliance sea and land channels. Even if it is as you wish, next year will be the same In a disaster year, the Machi Khans can also get food supplements from the Central Continent. Controlling the land route alone cannot block the Machi Khans' transportation lines. As for the naval army you mentioned, the blockade of the sea transportation lines may not be as you imagined. It is as simple as that in the book, the navy cannot be built in a day or two, and the inland navy is completely different from the ocean navy. It is simply unrealistic for our current navy to block the sea transportation line in the Southern Ocean! "
Wufeng has long been prepared for the two points raised by the other party. Not long after Bo Jinchen joined his team, many core things are not that he cannot know, but he has no chance to understand. Wufeng thinks it is necessary Give the opponent a shot in the arm.
"Jinchen, you don't know much about some situations. I can't say I'm absolutely sure that there will be a catastrophe next year, but according to some scholars' inferences, this possibility is still very high, so I decided to One treasure can be bet again. As for the navy issue you mentioned, I admit that you have some truths, but I never thought that relying on the existing navy in the northwest is like controlling the southern sea passage, but on this point you don’t have to worry about it. Don't worry, I have my own arrangements. Only when I can firmly hold the throats of the Machi Khans can I dare to send troops south, otherwise this will lose the ultimate meaning of going south. Of course there will be risks, but compared to our success It's worth it if you get it." Wufeng didn't explain too much, but gave the other party an affirmative answer.
"Oh?" Bo Jinchen raised his eyebrows in surprise. Could it be that this master still has some reservations about water power, but the inland water army in the western Xinjiang was first built, even if it has something to hide, it is very limited. But to block the sea transportation line is far from being able to be done by a few small ships. This master should be very clear about this, but why is the other party still so confident? Since the other party did not clearly point out the issue of the sea transportation blockade, Bo Jinchen couldn't ask further questions, but after pondering for a while, he slowly said: "Since His Highness is so sure, this subordinate has nothing to say, but This subordinate still wants to remind His Highness that with His Highness's current military strength, it is not impossible to fight to the coast of the Great South Sea in one go, but His Highness must also be mentally prepared. Once the Pasha people cease fighting within a short period of time, the Peninsula Alliance's army may be completely destroyed. Pressure on the Eastern Continent, and once the Nanyang Alliance feels that our existence threatens their commercial interests, I am afraid they will intervene with all their strength. Once the two sides merge, we will be under considerable pressure in the south, and it is very likely that we will fall into a protracted war. In the tug-of-war, His Highness has to take this into consideration."
Nodding approvingly, Wufeng's face finally became more serious: "Jinchen, you've got the point. The Peninsula Alliance is composed of countless small countries and city-states. If there is only one or a few of them, With our strength in Western Xinjiang, it is not a problem at all, but once the entire alliance unites and works together, even if we do not say that we will lose, we will bear considerable pressure, and the degree of risk will increase exponentially. If the Nanyang Alliance He really joined in wholeheartedly, so the outcome is hard to say. But every war has risks. If everything is done, then there is no need to fight this battle. You only need to talk about it with your mouth. Just draw a picture and the problem can be solved. There are too many variables in the war, and no one can guarantee that there will be no mistakes before it is over, but I think this battle can be fought!"
Taking a deep breath, Bo Jinchen also knew that this master's idea must be that no one can pull it back, not to mention that the other party is right, every war has risks, how can one lie in bed Just sit and wait for the enemy to surrender or reap benefits? And the two major alliances in the South were not invulnerable.
"Your Highness don't need to worry too much. From the perspective of my subordinates, whether it is the Peninsula Alliance or the Nanyang Alliance, they are an alliance of countries, not an independent sovereign country. Although they are fighting for their own interests, the interests are large or small. There is a difference between closeness and closeness, and this subordinate is thinking that His Highness should have a lot of experience in this aspect, as long as he makes good use of it, he should be able to find something that can be used." Bo Jinchen His face gradually returned to his normal mood, and he spoke a lot more casually.
"Jinchen, you seem to have something in your words. But you are right. If you can avoid using military means to solve the problem, then of course it is good. The highest level of war is to win in the temple. Hehe, war is just Pursue a result, as for the method and method, it is just a process, whether it is political pressure, diplomatic means, or military action, as long as the desired result can be obtained at the lowest cost, it is the most correct Already." Wufeng laughed and shook his head, the Taiping Sect suffered a lot in this regard, and was not good at using non-military means to win.
Regarding his master's unashamed opinion, Bo Jinchen could only say nothing after wryly smiling. That's right, the result determines everything, this is the reality.
The trip to Jielu came to an end soon, and Wufeng didn't stay long. For Grand Duke Alan's proposal of marrying Princess Anne, Wufeng obviously didn't have much mental preparation, but with Situ Yutang as a shield in front, Wufeng still easily resolved this contradiction. On the day of receiving the information from the intelligence department, Wufeng notified Ling Tian through Xuege to come up with the combat plan of the Southern Peninsula Alliance in the shortest possible time, and quickly mobilized the army to prepare for the upcoming battle. get ready.
However, the same thing happened in Jieluk, and a large-scale military mobilization was immediately launched. The 3rd Light Cavalry Regiment stationed in Tianshui immediately set off along Longdong to the northwest, bypassing Guide and entering Nanjieluk. The 70,000 National Defense Army of Jieluk also mobilized the whole army according to Bo Jinchen's request. Except for 20,000 people who served as Merrington's guard army, the remaining 50,000 troops were deployed and commanded by Bo Jinchen. The Regiment and the Imperial Dispatched Army Division also quickly assembled and began to make final preparations for the upcoming war~IndoMTL.com~Cooperating with Nanjie Locke's actions, the Third Western Xinjiang Army Regiment stationed on the front lines of Anyuan, Tianshui, and Hejian also began to operate Small-scale mobilization, although the movement range is not as large as that of Nanjieluk, but this line is not only a sensitive area for the Kamans, but also the center of the empire. Spy eyes.
All kinds of developments in Nanjieluk and its surrounding Beiyuan and Heshuo areas, without exception, have been fed back to the interested people in the east and north in the shortest possible time. The reorganization of the cavalry The newly formed Third Ranger Regiment was transferred to Nanterok, and this movement attracted the attention of the North.
The obese body seems to have lost a lot of weight, and even the slightly bald top of the head appears thinner at this time. All the troubles in the past few months have made the old man really want to have a rest for a while. Impulsive, but he knows that sitting in his position, unless he completely collapses, he will never be able to get a moment of stability.
In the dead of night, the tallow candle on the desk emits a bright light quietly. The candle flame is still, like a sculpture. Only when the breeze blows by occasionally, the candle flame will be found to be slightly swaying. He has walked back and forth in front of the desk countless times, but the old man still has no intention of sitting down, and the sound of smacking his lips from time to time is very clear in the empty room.
"What does Li Wufeng want to do? After inspecting Merrington, do you really want to help the Teroks take back Merrington? I'm afraid the Teroks' beauty trick won't work that well?" Muttering to himself, The short and fat old man kneaded his nose vigorously, and he didn't even feel that his nose was turning red.
