Power and Empire Chapter 3010: Aden Battle Cloud (10)
"With the cessation of the pirates of the South Sea, a key step in the Kingdom of Aden’s Zhongbia strategy has been realized. The sea road from Aden to Zhongbia now except for the imperial squadron in the southern sea of Zhongbia, the great Aden There should be no blocking in front of the army"
In short, as long as the navy opens up the southern waters of Central and Biya, the success rate of the great Aden conquest plan will be greatly increased"
At the Imperial Conference, the generals of the Lu family gathered around the map of Central and Biyah provided from the Red Dragon Temple. Their greedy eyes flashed on the people. Hanigsa attacked the city of Taihu, the nest of pirates in Nanxi, which proved The possibility of the Lu family’s landing, although Hanigsa insisted that there was only a small part of the property obtained from the looting in Taihu City, someone should believe in such words.
It is said that the prosperity of the southern part of Central and Biyah far exceeds any area conquered by the Kingdom of Aden before. The description of the prosperity of the East from the mouths of merchants traveling to and from the East stimulates the ambitions of the nobles of the Kingdom of Aden. According to the report, such a huge and fertile area has only a mere 100,000 troops. In the Kingdom of Aden, a private army of a great nobleman had such a number, not to mention, just six months ago, The kingdom has invested millions of troops for Cornelia. If these troops were invested in the frozen battlefield at the beginning, they would at least occupy a large area in China and Bahia.
Benefits, glory, a gamble, just like the war that determined the national movement of Aden fifty years ago, this time, the nobles in Aden were also completely mobilized, and everything was given the green light on this premise, Lu The family even agreed to increase the input of the navy’s military expenditures, only requiring the navy to add as many transport ships as possible in the shortest time, which will determine the amount of troops invested in the first echelon
On the other hand, with the news of the Imperial Conference, all the nobles in Aden were inexplicably excited. This time the troops transferred to China and Bahia were divided into three batches, with a one-month round trip interval. It is planned that within four to five months, at least 500,000 Aden troops will be invested in the Central Bialand area. If all goes well, the Kingdom of Aden can completely occupy Central Bialand in only half a year and incorporate the largest country in the Eastern Continent into the Kingdom of Aden. In the bag,
"We need a support point to break through the southern coastline of Central Bahia and directly put our troops into the Central Port. It seems that we can be the closest to the Imperial Capital of Central Bahia, but it is also equivalent to sending one hundred thousand troops from the first echelon. We have reached a dangerous situation. After all, what we are facing is a country that once dominated the Eastern Continent, with a population of tens of millions. Once our army is blocked, it will be a dangerous place. "A general Aden put his finger on the table. Moving on the map of Central and Bahia, he said with a cold look
"Support point?"
The king of Aden is also patrolling the map. This map of China and Pia from the Red Dragon Palace was drawn by countless Aden merchants. The level of detail above makes the King of Aden feel palpitations, not only Only all the cities in Central and Bahia are marked, and even the roads in the coastal areas are marked very clearly. The roads are staggered and connected, and the cities are densely crowded over a large area. Although it is just a map, it looks like A huge picture scroll shows the Eastern Continent before everyone’s eyes. Few people know that the Red Dragon Temple is clearly contributing to the fire this time when the East Expedition is launched. The report comes from the Grand Elder Aglan of the Red Dragon Temple. Map It was also sent from the Palace of Red Dragon, and there was also a ledger for the southern part of Central Bahia, which marked the cities and populations of the southern part of Central Biya and the city defense forces in various places. I don’t have any. It can be seen that the Red Dragon Palace has been preparing for a long time in order to encourage today’s troop deployment. Even Agleen, the only one of the four elders, has personally lived in Central Bialand for more than ten years and personally presided over it. Sending a steady stream of information from China and Bahrain to the Palace of Red Dragon
"It seems that the Palace of Red Dragon still has not given up looking for that thing!"
The corner of King Aden’s mouth grinned slightly. The royal family has been entangled with the Red Dragon Temple for hundreds of years. The secrets of the Red Dragon Temple have long been understood, just like the secular kingship and religious divine power after the country was founded. Like the agreement between the two, the Red Dragon Temple needs the royal family to help them find the lost miracle. Unlike the remnants of the holy city, the remnants of the holy city believe that the miracle is still in the holy city, while the Red Dragon Temple believes that the holy city His miracle came from the East. Over the years, I have been dedicated to the search for the East. This time, the instigation of the kingdom to invade China and Bahia, I am afraid that there will be any substantive discoveries, and what will it be? The King of Aden tilted his head and his eyes fell on the map in front of him. It was too big to be sure.
"If the navy can **** back the southern waters of Central and Bahia, our army can use the islands in the southern waters as a support point for our army!" The Aden Marshal Kauts glanced at the navy commander-in-chief on the opposite side. Brother Deya paused, and deliberately said, "I just don’t know how long it will take for the navy to attack, and I also heard that Nanxi seems to have hooked up with the Falcon Empire, that is to say, our military in Aden The action report has been placed on the table of the imperial emperor. The more time is delayed, the more unfavorable it is for the Lu family."
"Yes, when is the navy going to attack"
"Commander-in-chief Gudeyago, I said in the front that the pirates of Nanxi are immortal and will affect the rear. Now that the pirates of Nanxi have been leveled, the naval fleet has been driven in, and it has been from the Falcon Empire navy. It’s right that the southern waters of Central and Biya have been reclaimed. When will it be delayed like this?"
"The fleet still needs to rest and reorganize. The maximum force that the transport ship can operate is 70,000, and the empire's military information in the southern waters is not detailed. ◢Щщш.suimeng.lā..." Gudeya brother. His face was determined and took a deep breath. The attack on Biya this time almost relied on the navy for the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of troops. Even the old admiral felt the pressure on his shoulders. Other navy generals were also one. A face is silent
"Commander-in-chief Gudeyago, what do you mean by this? If the navy is going to prepare for a year, will the Lu family have to wait for a year?"
"This is the first time I have heard that if the information is not detailed, it can be a reason not to attack. The navy people are really eye-opening." The generals of the Lu family showed mockery in isolation, and even many people were shocked. Laughing, the generals of the Navy were all black faces. One of the young and energetic admiral of the Navy had a blushing face. He was about to stand up angrily, but was held back by his colleagues. The army was deliberately stimulating us. It is to let the navy generals take the initiative to attack
In the past six months, we have fought against the tyrannical Imperial Navy many times, knowing how terrifying the Imperial Navy’s combat power is. Using Aden warships to attack the Imperial Navy fleet often costs three or even four times the price. The imperial navy’s extensive repairs to its strongholds in the southern waters of Central and Biya are like a huge eyeliner net. As long as the Aden navy appears, the imperial navy will receive news, and when and where will the Aden navy be concerned about the imperial navy. Appearing is completely blind. This is like a slap in the sea in a naval battle. The army who can stand there and say cold words is the army who knows nothing
"Okay, it won't help if this argument goes on!" King Aden snorted heavily, and the generals of the Lu family stopped laughing one by one. King Aden looked at the ugly face of Gudeya. Asked, "Brother Gudeya, just tell me directly, how long will it take for the navy to attack?"
"This fleet expedition is completely different from ordinary naval operations. It takes at least five days to travel from Aden to the waters of Central and Biyah. The entire fleet plus the infantry carried, hundreds of thousands floating on the sea, The materials and food needed are not a small amount, and even if they arrive in the southern waters of Central Pia, it does not mean that they can be supplied immediately. Once the army is short of food, the consequences will be disastrous on the open sea." Under his gaze, he gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "Since the army is so eager, please recommend an army commander to come out."
Hearing what Gudeya said, the whole conference hall was silent, especially Gudeya's phrase on the vast sea, the army was short of food, which changed the expressions of the generals of the army. The navy fleet of hundreds of thousands of people changed. The number of transport ships needed is probably more than three to four hundred. According to the carrying capacity of the Aden Navy, the ability to transport so many soldiers is already the limit. If there are more people, the space to transport food is naturally limited. At least, the arrival of the fleet to Central Bialand does not mean that it is landing in Central Bialand. During the period, it needs to break through the fierce obstacles of the Falcon Imperial Navy warships. If there is a problem with the Navy, it will definitely be a disaster
"If it is impossible to land and is intercepted by the Imperial Navy, no matter how much army is on board, what effect can it do!" The generals whispered, their faces looked unnatural, and their longing for the wealth of China and Bahia, "Half of Toler was poured by Gudeya's cold water" "The army commander of the first echelon is simply an adventure! No one wants to stand up and serve
"If the navy has no opinion, let me reluctantly do it!" A resolute general Aden stood up, took a deep breath, and then recommended himself to apply for this dangerous task.
"Yia, have you figured it out clearly? This task is...!" Seeing this general who stood up, Gudeya's pupils shrank a little, Yiya, the youngest in the Aden army Marquis, it can be said that the future is boundless. It is said that His Majesty the King intends to marry the princess to him. There is really no need for such a newcomer in the kingdom to take this strange risk
"Commander-in-chief Gudeyago, I know what I'm talking about. Since the kingdom's strategy has been set, as a soldier, my duty is to carry it out." Yiya smiled disapprovingly, spiritually Said tremblingly
"Well, in that case, I have nothing to say." Gudeya nodded, and the Imperial Conference was over. The Lu family assisted the navy in raising supplies. At the same time, the fifty thousand Aden soldiers of the first echelon also started. Boarding the transport ships of the Aden Navy, the main force of the Aden Navy, totaling more than 300 ships of various types, left the port of Aden under the gaze of countless people. The golden sunset shines on the fleet's sails from a distance, looking magnificent and carrying Aden at the same time. The carrier pigeons of the main navy’s departure from Hong Kong also flew eastward
"I left the port so soon, it seems much earlier than we expected!" Kasti, the commander of the South China Sea Squadron of the Falcon Empire, has just returned from Liucheng Port, and the Imperial Bank has been fully integrated. After intervening in Liucheng Port, Longchang has become a port of Imperial Merchant Shipping. All Aden merchants have been expelled. In the other five ports, the Imperial Bank that was going to intervene suddenly withdrew funds, and the South China Sea Squadron, which was responsible for armed escort, was also affected. The emperor’s order, to prevent the Aden Navy from entering the southern sea of Central Biya,
"The number of our warships is not enough to contend with the main force of the Aden Navy." Kasti frowned at the emperor's order. This is an almost impossible task. The main force of the Aden Navy is quite large, not to mention this time. It’s also full of Aden’s troops. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s coming out all over the place, and the total number of the South China Sea Fleet of the Empire may not be more than half of the opponent’s.
"Commander, although our army can't shake it hard, but if it's just a harassment, it can still be done," a naval fleet captain said. "Our army is all fast Dragon Tooth warships, and despite the number of opponents Many, but there is a large number of transport fleets that need to be protected~IndoMTL.com~ The opponent dare not even if they want to chase us, this is like a target on the sea, we can adopt a segmented attack strategy to delay the opponent's fleet. Speed"
"Yes, this method is good!" Kasty's eyes brightened when he heard it. He is a general in naval operations. In terms of combat layout, he is naturally quite good, otherwise he would not command the imperial navy. The Strand Navy survived the fiasco and returned to the situation. Even the Imperial Admiral Dusternky thought he was a genius of naval command, but in terms of these small methods, cleverness, after all, can’t compete with the Imperial Navy. Compared with these old fried dough sticks, these old fried dough sticks that followed Dustellenkai all the way to the world are not of a regular naval origin. They adhere to the combat thinking of fighting if they can and running if they can’t, which disturbs this kind of battle. Thing, it’s handy for them
"The opponent came from a long distance, and the material it can carry is bound to be very limited. I believe that even if the opponent finds us, they will not fight fiercely with our fleet. Their goal is to land!" The navy captain grinned. A big yellow tooth was exposed. "According to the naval tradition of the Aden people, the marching fleet is generally deployed in a spherical formation, centered on the transport fleet, surrounded by fast warships, and a fleet of hundreds of warships, even if it is attacked, think It will be very difficult to steer. If our fleet concentrates on firepower to attack a little, it is still possible to sink a few transport ships of the other party. As long as the other party starts to panic, we will be half succeeded."
