Power and Empire Chapter 3818: Will and ambition (12)
Anxi Grand Oasis, the night has gradually fallen down, and the setting sun shone from the west, reflecting on the large desert outside the oasis. The horizon in the distance shows a red and yellow line. The Imperial Eastern Governor Hayala is standing in the room. In front of the map of the Great Desert. The adjutant held the candlestick and lit it for him. Hayala, who was always rude to the outside world, had a calm face at the moment. Compared with the nobles who washed the large candlesticks with ornate decorations, the Hayala was born highlander. , In the most irritable time, I still like the deep light emitted by this candle. The candlelight shone his shadow on the map, dragging out a long, black shadow.
It has been the fourth day since the order was sent back. As for what step the imperial army has achieved, Khayera is not clear, because the entire battle is a surprise attack. For the sake of secrecy, we don’t give anything that the Adenites will know in advance. Possibly, Khayela asked the imperial army not to give any reports. The people of Aden have been operating in the Oasis for decades, and I don’t know how many eye lines they have planted in the Oasis. He instigated the monarch of the Oasis in Anxi Oasis. We are forming the Great Oasis Alliance, and the old opponent Ig Woods is afraid that the news has been long ago, so he directly transferred the Great Oasis monarchs away with their own interests and draws salary from the bottom of their own tanks.
Similarly, as long as he is still in Anxi Oasis, Igwood’s attention will stop on Anxi Oasis, and he never thought that when he was in Anxi Oasis, the Imperial Army suddenly launched a full-scale raid on the border. At this time, I could only believe in my own decision. Ha Yela took a deep breath, and muttered the phrase "follow the trend" in the emperor's secret letter. The finger lightly swept across the map, Boca Oasis. , Scattered Density Oasis, Star Oasis, Slam Oasis. . . . At the end of the yellow-brown desert, there is the Gulf of Aden painted green. Compared with the Obaro continent covered by the empire red, the area of the Gulf of Aden is not too large.
Like a crescent surrounded by a blue bay, you can feel a strange beauty just from the map
But from the location of the Gulf of Aden,
A huge peninsula to the east suddenly appeared, that is, the southern subcontinent, and the southern subcontinent to the north, and to the north, across a section of mountains, it is the Central-Biyaland continent
Looking at it this way, the Gulf of Aden is sandwiched between the Obaro continent, the Central Bahia continent, and the southern subcontinent. The unique geographical location can be seen, and the Gulf of Aden and the southern seas controlled by the Gulf of Aden , Directly connected to the exit sea of the southern part of the Erot Empire, as long as it is opened, the imperial merchant ships can go north along the coastline and enter the southern waters of Central Bia, or they can go south and enter the southern continent, which is still in a mysterious state.
"The emperor is bound to win the Gulf of Aden, and it may not have the purpose of opening up the southern business road." The emperor designated a strategic plan for the Kingdom of Aden. As the proponent of the Great Oasis operation, Hayerah personally went to the southern part of Eero to participate At the meeting, the emperor's words at the meeting slowly passed through his heart, every word, very clear. He muttered to himself. It seems to be asking and answering by myself
"The people of Aden still despise the emperor too much. They think that there is a large desert as a barrier, and the sea route is isolated by a sea of mist, but they never thought that the sea of mist will suddenly disappear. The desert is a barrier and a springboard. The empire The army landed in the southern part of Aiyadin and broke into the Oasis. In fact, there is only one real purpose, and that is to attract the attention of a bunch of people.
Hayala could feel the emperor’s designated raid plan on the Gulf of Aden. It is now like a silent blade in the dark, waiting for the chance of a fatal blow. At this time, the Kingdom of Aden has nothing but to go forward, betting on national luck or there is still a trace. Opportunity, but the people of Aden were obviously not aware of this fatal crisis, they just regarded this attack as an attempt by the imperial army
The people of Aden shouldn’t think that this imperial offensive will shake their national origin. For the people of Aden, Hayala knows too well. Only bet on them, as always arrogant! Even Igwoods doesn’t think the same way, as long as you destroy the Oasis, you can sit back and relax. Thinking of the famous Aden who almost made him dead, Haye pulled the corner of his mouth subconsciously.
I have to admit that Igwood is too familiar with his own style, and I am also familiar with Igwood’s style. If this battle continues according to my previous plan, I want to occupy the absolute It’s completely impossible for Ig Woods, who is at home to win the Oasis, but it’s not a problem now.
Starting from receiving the emperor’s secret order, in fact, to some extent, the commander is no longer Hayala, but the emperor. Even if the emperor is thousands of miles away from here, the emperor is at a strategic level. For the detached judgment of the people of Aden directly on the Great Oasis, Igwood is definitely not able to deal with it. Igwood believes that he has mastered the whole situation and holds a hundred thousand Aden army. If the monarchs of the Great Oasis are controlled or killed, Destroying the Oasis is an extremely easy thing,
But the emperor took advantage of the trend, first maneuvered his hands, and profited from the chaos. It seemed that there was no specific content at all, but it was equivalent to giving countless possibilities. Five days, saying that it is not long, said It’s not short. It’s completely empowering oneself and letting oneself gamble naked. It’s not his own style at all, but it’s exactly the same. Even if Igwood breaks his head, I can’t think of it. Gambling? This is a big oasis, a big oasis that the people of Aden have painstakingly managed for decades. If you want to **** it from the people of Aden, what if you don't take a gamble! I have confidence in my decision! I can’t help but have confidence!"
Now there is something worrying about Khayala. The news of the imperial army's raid on the Oasis can only be isolated for a few days, and even if everything goes well for the Imperial Army, it will be the end of the edge if the first four Oasis can be laid down
So what to do later? The people of Aden still control nine of the 13 major oases, still occupying an absolute advantage, followed by a more brutal tug-of-war, while the Aden side has the home field advantage, the military advantage, and also controls the monarchs of the 13 major oases. It is even more nominal to declare that the empire is an invasion, but the position of the empire is embarrassing
It is impossible for the emperor to fail to see this possibility, and Hayala whispered as if trapped in a magic barrier
Of course, from a strategic point of view, the empire successfully dragged the Aden people’s 100,000 troops in Aden through raids on the Oasis, and successfully attracted the attention of the Aden people. It is absolutely cost-effective strategically, but it will be tens of thousands. The imperial army is placed in the middle of the desert, unable to move forward and retreat. Isn't this going to be a battle with the people of Aden here?
"How is the material preparation? Anxi Oasis is too close to Bossini. The people of Aden may come at any time. We must leave as soon as possible."
Hayala retracted her gaze from the map, rubbed her temples, asked the adjutant to put the candlestick back in place, and took a deep breath and asked
"My lord, the prices of all the materials on the market today have been tripled in price. In this way, we have also found smugglers, so we can barely make up enough materials to get us to the next big oasis", the adjutant answered with an ugly face. Said
"Only the people of Aden imposed a trade embargo on the Oasis, and subsequently imposed an embargo on supplies. The materials in the Oasis can only be located by smuggling merchants. The Anxi Oasis is not bad, because there is no I bought the consumption of the garrison in Aden from the Naglanz Chamber of Commerce. I heard from Naglanz’s old Bollock that other large oasis not only lacked supplies, but also needed to support the garrison of the large oasis, so I was even more nervous. , When the material ban was just issued, the major oasis garrisons tried their best to purchase materials. I heard that even the Aden people in the hands of the major oasis garrison only had enough materials for one march."
"You mean, the Aden army only has enough supplies for one march?" When Hayela heard the adjutant's words, a flash of surprise flashed in his mind, and he faintly felt that he seemed to have grasped the key.
"Yes, we only bought supplies as smugglers, and told the other party that we left Anxi Oasis to avoid the disaster, and the subordinates thought that the other party would not lie to us"
The adjutant’s face resolutely stated that since the material embargo, the supplies and grains of the Oasis have been increasing every day. Some large oases have starved to death due to food shortages. This is not the case for isolated large oases. What a good thing, there are few dead people, but you can find a way to deal with it. Once a large-scale death begins, it is a precursor to the outbreak of the plague. The entire large oasis will be affected, even if it is left, it will be useless. Other oases will prohibit the outbreak of plagues. Of the great oasis people enter!
The adjutant said, "Even in Anxi Oasis, three or four corpses were transported out by car this morning, all starved to death without food! So tell the other party the reason for avoiding the disaster, the smugglers will not doubt it. !
"Even Anxi Oasis is beginning to die!" Ha Ye pulls his body and trembles suddenly, and the feeling of grasping the key has become clear. The Kingdom of Aden is trying to exploit the major oasis as much as possible, and In addition, the transportation of materials and food from Aden into the desert is extremely costly, and the gain is not worth the loss. Therefore, the Aden garrison is allowed to solve the problem on the spot in the major oases. Now the Kingdom of Aden imposes a material embargo on the major oases, and the major oases have no materials. The Aden garrison will also fall into a situation of lack of supplies. The Aden army is trying to maintain the supplies needed for a march is a routine, but the actual situation, I am afraid that it is even worse!
Therefore, the garrisons in the major oasis have the practice of eating empty money, so the actual number of garrisons is not so large. Naturally, there are fewer materials that need to be hoarded. The materials left behind are already needed for one march. The limit of the garrison is the basis for their evacuation from the Oasis. It is the materials they will not use even if they are killed.
In other words, after learning about the imperial army’s entry into the Oasis
The biggest possibility is not to order the major oasis garrisons to enter the battle, but to order the retreat to a certain major oasis closer to the kingdom of Aden to gather. Because there is not enough material support, if the garrison is ordered to take the initiative to attack, Even if you win the imperial army, you will starve to death in the desert because you have nothing to eat.
So, the people of Aden will take the initiative to give up most of the big oasis!
Haya squeezed his fingers tightly, his eyes were bright and scared, and he felt that he had grasped the real key. It turned out that the emperor had already prejudged, and Aden would only choose to give up part of the big deal when the supplies were in short supply. Oasis, instead of taking the initiative to fight, so there is no need to consider the following things, because the people of Aden can only win the possibility of a decisive battle with the imperial army if they take the initiative to give up the Oasis! If you change to yourself, you should also give such an order. If you can give such an order, then Iggwoods will do it all too often!
Slam Oasis,
It is known as the land of the gods, the largest oasis among the thirteen large oasis. It is not only the source of the Slam River that crosses the southern section of the desert, but also Lagusde, known as the ridge of the great desert. The mountains rise from here too
After experiencing the arduous journey in the hot desert ahead, when the dim light before dawn shone on the ground, I stepped on the sand as fine as pollen. A round of red sun is emerging from the front, the dawn is shining in the endless sea of sand, and the long camel horse team slowly walks on the winding mountain path, like a wriggling snake in the exhausted desert. Travelers, the first reaction to seeing the Slam Oasis is often to kneel on the sand,
If the big oasis in front is just a wetland close to the water source, it is a stopping point for the big desert
The Slam Oasis in front of you can definitely be regarded as a piece of forest land, where all the caravans that cross the desert gather, the flower of the gods in the desert, the bare earth and sand, but The grass and trees on the other side are particularly beautiful. The abundant underground river gushes out here, like a white line rushing, divided into three sections, and the earth extends endlessly to the distance of the ground.
The verdant wilderness, dense woods, the squiggly clear rivers, and the flocks of birds flying up and down on both sides of the river, everything is so peaceful and beautiful. The white clouds in the sky are as detailed as dreams of cotton and silk, and the blue sky is clear of turbidity and pollution.
Silamu Oasis gathers 67 tribes in the Great Desert. Although there is a nominal prince, the binding force on each tribe is extremely limited. Even the arrogant Adenites, in the Slam Dalu Will also converge a lot
The people of Aden are not afraid of the desert peoples, but they are unwilling to provoke these desert people who lived and hunted in Slam hundreds of years ago and built their own strongholds. The people of Aden once thought of using force to unite these desert peoples. Let these desert people become slaves of the Aden people, but it is obviously impossible. The Aden army relies on the large oasis for supply, and these desert people have various hidden supply points in the desert. Every time the Aden army encircles the Sira The Muda Oasis and the desert peoples have long since fled, leaving an empty Slam oasis, but on the route of the Aden army’s return, various attacks and harassment ~ IndoMTL.com~ made the Aden army miserable, even A prince of the Kingdom of Aden was also attacked and killed. In the end, the Kingdom of Aden had to go to these desert peoples to sign an agreement, agreeing to the right of these desert peoples to live in the Slam Oasis, but these desert peoples must turn in part of the desert specialties every quarter. Tribute,
Staring at the golden eagle flag that appeared in the distance, the surrounding desert heads looked at a loss. The opponent's target was the Aden people. Without understanding, the desert heads strictly ordered their tribes not to participate
Under the banner of the Golden Eagle, the fifty imperial light Thors lined up began to pour their flames on the Aden garrison camp, and a dense line of scattered troops opened to the Aden army, with officers in front and soldiers following closely. With earth-shattering shouts, they rushed to the position of the Aden army camp. The Aden people resisted desperately, and the fireball exploded with sawdust splashing. Under the fire of the Imperial Thunder, the wooden gate of the Aden garrison camp was blown up. I don’t know where they flew. For the Aden people who are still relying on the camp to resist, the Imperial Army, after the bombardment, Starting to set up slings, one by one ignited fireballs smashed past, setting fire to the camp of the Aden people, and the Aden soldiers running outside the camp were knocked down by the dense imperial crossbow. Those that are hard to the end become barbecues, and there is a smell of burnt people floating in the whole air.
