Chapter 1038 Had to go on a campaign

On the morning of June 10th, the fifth year of Tianxuan, the meeting of the core heroes of Yihou Territory was held on the third floor of the lord's hut in Yihou Territory. Xinping raised different opinions during the progress of the battle on the main continent.

   Qu Mao was worried at first that the military heroes would not agree to slow down the progress of the offensive on the main continent, but Xinping raised objections instead.

  Xinping stood up, took out a map from his backpack, and hung it on the wall of the meeting room.

   Then Xinping walked to the edge of the map, all the heroes present, including Qu Mao, all focused on the map that Xinping hung on the wall.

  Xinping circled a few areas on the map seemingly randomly, and everyone frowned and looked at the points that Xinping circled with his fingers.

Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan, stood up, walked under the map, stretched out the handle of the goose feather fan, pointed to the map, and said: "My lords, my lords, what Master Xinping means is: On the Eastern Continent, we only occupy Except for the territories along the coastline, the total area of ​​these territories accounts for about a quarter of the entire area of ​​the Eastern Continent.

   But take a closer look, everyone, now we just have a long and narrow circle of territory along the coastline, and there is not enough strategic depth at all.

  Master Xinping, is there any misunderstanding in my interpretation? "

  Xinping shook his head and said: "My lords, my lords, just like what Master Kong Ming explained, our territory is currently on the entire U-shaped Eastern Continent, which is equivalent to drawing a V-shape near the west.

In the western part of the East Continental Bay, we are not bad. The Marquis of Moner, the Marquis of Lianhe, the Duchy of Liusu and the Marquis of Luanshan are all connected together, but the Marquis of Jili itself is narrow and long, and the Marquis of Napoleon and Marquis of Gillette are stretched out. Long, the Green Wing Principality is on the other side.

Now in the area surrounded by the Marquis of Ji Li, the Marquis of Gil, the Marquis of Napoleon, and the Principality of Qingyi, there are still 42 Marquises, 3 principalities, and 1 kingdom, the Principality of Green Wings, the Marquis of Napoleon and Gillette Among the Hou countries, we are still faced with 2 Hou countries and part of 1 kingdom, this kingdom is the Kingdom of Dali.

There are 13 princes, 4 principalities, and 2 kingdoms in the middle of Qingyi Dukedom, Gillette Kingdom, Abyss Kingdom, Lianhe Kingdom and Moner Kingdom, and then go north. Dali Kingdom, Pengda Principality and Mughal Empire.

  Looking at the eastern part of the East Continent Bay, in addition to the 27 Chosen player lords of the Anti-Yi Town Alliance, there are 7 Marquis, 3 Principalities and 1 Kingdom between the Anti-Yi Town Alliance and the Mughal Empire.

Even if you want to slow down the progress of the main continent's strategy, on the Eastern Continent, our independent territory is intertwined with other forces. Let me ask you military heroes, how much troops do we need to defend such a long border like ours, and each section of the border Lines may need to face countless opponents. "

Kongming tapped the map heavily with the handle of his goose feather fan, and said, "In the inverted U-shaped area of ​​the Marquis of Jili, Marquis of Jill, Duchy of Qingyi, Marquis of Napoleon, Marquis of Bertiere, and Marquis of Wangzhan, there are a total of If the 46 aboriginal forces can be taken down, the defensive pressure will be many times smaller."

  Liu Qianhui frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Qu Mao, it shouldn't be appropriate to stop now, and it shouldn't be to fight the Qingyi Principality in April.

  In any case, it is definitely unrealistic for us to defend against 46 aboriginal forces.

   Otherwise, let’s find a way to contact the Principality of Pengda and let him go to Dali Kingdom and a few Marquis countries to disperse our pressure.

I think that we have one year to re-cultivate the population of the Holy Land, counting the independent territories of the existing two duchies and ten marquises. The problem of a Marquis is definitely not big. "

Zhao Pan circled the map a few times, walked under the map again, and said, "My lord, we must take down the 42 marquises, 3 duchies and 1 kingdom in the inverted U-shaped area mentioned by Master Kongming." , otherwise the troops will be very passive."

Xinping said: "Master Zhao Pan, not only the pressure from the troops, but also our caravans will be very troublesome. Except for the aboriginal forces in the northwestern part of the Pengda Principality, we don't have enough information on the East Continent. The rest is 28 in total. There are aboriginal forces, 1 Mughal empire, 4 kingdoms, 10 principalities and 62 princely states.

   After the 46 forces in this area that Master Kong Ming mentioned just now are captured, or after the 19 forces in this area are captured, our defense pressure will be much smaller. "

  Su Yan murmured: "What do you heroes mean, is that we have to continue fighting?

But if we continue to fight, we don't have enough residents to build towns in the newly captured territory. The newly captured territory is still facing the dilemma of being constantly ravaged by rebels and constant riots by residents. We need to invest a lot of gold coins, troops and food. Notice The input-output ratio is very low. "

   Xuande thought for a while, and said: "Our Yihou territory will definitely not be able to sustain a large-scale battle, but what if we just concentrate our forces on a small scale, with a single lightning attack, and win one or two Hou kingdom forces within a week or two?

  The subordinates personally think that with our current strength, the problem should not be too big. "

Su Li said: "Master Xuande, the enemy will not allow us to eat away. After taking down one or two small princes, I am afraid it will promote their alliance with each other. Once the enemy is united, our defense situation will inevitably be worse." More passive."

  Sylvia Ocean stood up, sat down again, and slammed the table hard. The territory that the navy can occupy is almost only the area of ​​the Anti-Yizhen Alliance. Now is not the time for the navy to make contributions.

  Kong Ming said: "In this inverted U-shaped area, no matter where it is, we have to take it down slowly."

Qu Mao shook his head and said: "My lords, I think you are thinking too simply. Once the Qingyi Principality battlefield is over, after we take down the entire Qingyi Principality, we will definitely face the Dali Kingdom and the Northwest and the North. The two powerful enemies of the Principality of Pengda are just like we encountered the Mughal Empire in the northern border of the Marquis of Moner.

  Theoretically, we can mobilize flexible troops after a confrontation, but we theoretically have 1.3 million surplus troops on the battlefield of the Marquis of Moner, but who dares to mobilize them? "

  Zhao Pan said: "My lord, if we can transfer 1.3 million troops over there, our army on the battlefield of the Qingyi Dukedom will send another 700,000 or 2 million troops, and at least five princes can be swept down..."

   Qu Mao sighed, and said: "In the afternoon, everyone will discuss separately. We will decide on the strategy tomorrow. The problem is already in front of everyone. It depends on how we adjust the strategy."
