Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 2: Iron Horse Glacier Section 41 Deterrence Policy…
"Your Majesty, if you really want the Boyin to persevere while maintaining sufficient strength, I am afraid that the empire will have to take the risk of a comprehensive deterioration of the relationship with the Sithrow, and the Kaman people don't have to go too far." Worried, we have already controlled Jiayuguan, and our defense system has been perfected on the front line of Terok, and we can fully take on the heavy responsibility of defense. What I am most worried about is this matter. Support, the pressure we are under in the north is too great, especially when the empire’s next military operation may be carried out in the south first.” Ling Tianfang weighed his words, this is a small-scale discussion. Apart from His Majesty the emperor, there is only Bo Jinchen, his deputy, the right privy envoy.
Wufeng can hear the meaning of Ling Tianfang's words. He tends to support the Sussex tribe to maintain and grow its strength. The empire has done its best to delay the tribe for half a year. As for the possibility that the strength of the Dole tribe may be greatly weakened, it is not within the scope of the empire's consideration.
Ling Tianfang believes that after the empire solves the southern issue, even if the Liberians unite, it will be impossible to resist the empire. Because people can't exert a little power, the empire can solve the Liberians as long as it adopts appropriate tactics such as breaking them down one by one. However, the empire is not yet ready to turn against the Liberians, and the empire cannot actively prepare to use troops against the south. It is time to fall into the tail of the Liberians again. It is most appropriate to maintain a good or at least passable relationship with the Liberians in the near future.
"Tianfang, we have to take a longer-term view. The Heathrow people are recovering their strength quickly now. The Kaman people are now in charge of Huaxili and Knox. The influence of the Kamanians has become more pragmatic. In fact, apart from the adjustment of the military policy, their economic development strategy has not changed much from when Gomez was in power. Once the Kaman people shrink in the military It means that they can have more energy to develop the economy. Once the two chariots of the Liberians, the Heathrow and the Kaman, develop, they will have to face difficulties in the future when they carry out the Northern Expedition. The land is difficult, and Lian feels that the Sithrow and Kaman people cannot be allowed to develop like this, and the Boyin people have to hold back their development."
Wu Feng didn't quite agree with Ling Tianfang's agility. He would rather take various methods to let the Boyins hold back the Liberians than to face a powerful Liberian group in the future, even if he pays the price of fighting against the Heathrow people now.
Ling Tianfang wondered if that Tuoji had played any role in it, but he couldn't doubt His Majesty's opinion, he had already stated his own opinion, but if His Majesty insisted on his own opinion, then he would have to accept it instead. The military strategic deployment of the Privy Council also had to change accordingly, which made him a little unwilling.
"Your Majesty, then our military deployment in East Tenggerina, Northwest County, and even Zhangyuan County must be readjusted. The existing military strength is not enough to deal with the difficulties. Conflicts and even wars that may be brought about.” Ling Tianfang reluctantly expressed his concern, “If this sub-war state lasts for too long, it will affect our planned southern war plan.”
"I think, I have been thinking about this issue. Cui Wenxiu hopes to continue to advance the empire's westward expansion plan in the middle of this year. He asked to take back Nanmeili and the Northwest Indian and German Security Department. I have been worried about this issue. If Once Cui Wenxiu implements this plan, will a full-scale war break out between Sioran and Jutland and the empire? The Hansen Alliance also needs to consider this issue. I originally hoped to deploy two to three legions to strengthen the North. But if Cui Wenxiu wants to advance his plan, then the army in the mainland cannot be transferred, and the defense in the north is a problem." Wufeng is also a little distressed.
"Since Your Majesty has made up his mind to disrupt the development plans of the Sithrow and Kaman people and support the Boyin people, then we need to strengthen the defense of the northern front first. It is inevitable to draw troops from the middle mainland. It is also possible to draw a legion from the southwest region. However, it is necessary to launch wars against the Hansen League, Jutland, and West Orland continuously throughout the year, which will affect the overall planning and layout of the empire. Therefore, I think that if General Cui Wenxiu thinks that the land It is indeed necessary to launch a war this year. It can only be designed according to the scale of the maximum use of troops within four legions and four cavalry regiments. It cannot exceed this limit, otherwise it will affect the deployment of other aspects of the empire. Two more legions will be deployed on the line, mainly in Shulin and Yinchuan, which should be able to meet the requirements
If necessary, we can station a mobile force mainly composed of cavalry in Jiayuguan. If the Sithrows and Kamans really want a showdown with us on the Baiyin issue, we can also use mobile forces to carry out an early strike to disrupt their war plans, which can also buy them some time to readjust. "
Bo Jinchen, who had been silent all this time, finally interjected. He advocated reducing the passive defensive force and adopting a surprise deterrent to expand the mobile force to deter the Heathrow and Bianmen, so that they would not dare to showdown with the empire easily. It can avoid too much impact on the central mainland region, and can actively prepare for the southern war. As long as the Boyin people can drag it until July, the sea channel between the Black Ice Ocean and the Bering Sea can be opened, and the ship can completely Sufficient supplies can be provided for the Boyin people, and the Boyin people can survive this year until next summer. I believe that by then the relationship between the empire and the Liberians will need to be repositioned.
Wu Feng and Ling Tianfang's eyes were brightened by Bo Jinchen's opinion. If a sufficient number of mobile cavalry were deployed in the Jiayuguan area, once the Sisro and Kaman wanted to take measures against the empire to help Bo When the people counterattack, the mobile cavalry can protrude from Jiayuguan and attack the southern area of the Sisrow and the Kamans. Although this may not be able to pose a fatal threat to the Sisrows and the Kamans, it can at least make the Sisrows Consider the consequences of taking military measures against the Emperor Garden with the Kamans.
"Well, Your Majesty, Jinchen's opinion is worth a try. Now that Jiayuguan is under our control, as long as we deploy about 100,000 rangers here, I believe that both the Sithrows and the Kamans will consider it. The price they have to use force against the Emperor Garden can also minimize her pressure on our northern defense line, and we can also deploy the necessary cavalry forces on the East Tengger Grassland to fight against the Heathrow from both sides. Suppress and prevent them from jumping over the wall."
Ling Tianfang nodded in agreement, his deputy's tactical point of view has always been his strong point, and many times he was even sharper and unique than himself, Ling Tianfang did not hide his admiration for this deputy.
Wufeng also noticed the novelty of this point of view. Instead of spending a lot of troops to garrison the northern line of defense, it is better to prepare sufficient mobile forces for deterrence, forcing the Sithrows and Kamanians to dare not act rashly. It is another matter for the imperial army to clash with the Sithrows on the tribal territory. As long as the war does not turn into a full-scale war, the empire can accept it. Otherwise, the empire may have to reconsider the strategy of first going south and then going north.
When Tuoluo and Takla learned of the empire's decision, they were undoubtedly overjoyed. They didn't know what made Wufeng suddenly become so reasonable. Although they refused the request to lift the ban, they gave them an original A way out that was never expected.
Obtaining supplies from the eastern channel is a choice of last resort. Importing materials from the east is not only difficult to transport, but also has a huge loss, and is also affected by various possible variables. The Dole tribe is not desperate and will not With this bad strategy, if the empire can use force to ensure the passage in the territory of the Sykes Tribe~IndoMTL.com~, it would be great for both the Sykes Tribe and the Dole Tribe, which means that the Sykes Tribe and the Dole Tribe All tribes will be protected by the armed forces of the empire. At least the Heathrow and Kaman people have to consider the threat of force from the Tang Dynasty before taking large-scale military operations against the Boyin tribe.
The Spring Festival Ceremony finally kicked off with a satisfied and grateful mood in the arms of Bai Yinren. Wufeng didn't like this kind of cumbersome and lengthy ceremony. This kind of ceremony that is purely a performance is annoying, but as the founding emperor of the Tang Empire, this is the first Spring Festival since the establishment of the empire. Stick to it.
From worship to ceremonies, from holding grand banquets to spectators’ folk performances, from ascending to the imperial city to receive public worship to going down to the city and close touch, this series of show-like forms are endless. Feng was exhausted, and followed Wufeng. Except for Queen An Qier who couldn't bear it because of her health, Situ Yutang, Lin Yuexin, Annie, Zhu Zimei, Su Jie and other concubines also surrounded him from one place to another. In the other place, with a formulaic stiff smile, he received representatives and congratulators from all over the mainland. From getting up early in the morning until returning to the palace late at night, with countless fireworks and firecrackers blooming in the four cities of the imperial capital, it announced the greatness of the Tang Empire. Finally passed an important moment in its history and entered the second year of the empire.
